Environmental Management

The Cheviot Mine Project underwent extensive public and regulatory review between 1994 and 2000. In 2000, the Joint Review Panel determined that, conditional on CRO meeting its commitments and the Panel’s requirements, the project met provincial and federal regulatory requirements and is in the public interest.

In 2004, when mining began in the Cheviot Creek zone of the Cheviot mine, joint government and Teck review teams were established to better understand and guide the relationship between mining and areas of particular interest to the public and stakeholders, including water quality and flows, fisheries, aquatic monitoring, large carnivores, wildlife movement, harlequin ducks and recreational use. Work plans were developed for each of these interests and over the last six years have been completed or evolved into other processes.
