Baseline Data Collection

Environmental baseline data is crucial for understanding the natural environment and designing a project that minimizes environmental impacts.

Environmental Study Areas

Numerous studies, many of which will run through development, reclamation, and closure, have been conducted for the project and include surrounding areas. Each study is a critical component for designing a project that prevents and minimizes environmental impacts. Studies include:

  • Water Quality

  • Hydrology

  • Meteorological

  • Wildlife Surveys

  • Archaeological

  • Wetlands Delineation
