Sisson Mine – submit comments by March 18

The NWAI remains opposed to the Sisson Mine project which intends to use water bodies frequented by fish to dispose of the mine waste that will be generated by the mining operations. We are encouraging concerned citizens to participate in the process by providing comments directly to Environment and Climate Change Canada before March 18, 2019. Please submit your comments directly to: ec.mmer-remm.ec@canada.ca

The proposed Amendments to the Metal and Diamond Mining Effluent Regulations (the Regulations) in relation to Sisson Mine Project in New Brunswick were published in the Canada Gazette. Click here to view the amendments.

In May 2018 the Nashwaak Watershed Association submitted a response to the proposal to amend the Metal Mining Effluent Regulation (MMER) for the Sisson Mine Project. Click here for the NWAI submission to Environment and Climate Change Canada, May 2018.
