Code of Practice - Environmental Effects Monitoring Program.

The objectives of the Code of Practice for Environmental Effects Monitoring Program are to (I) generate accurate and reliable data and the conditions in the mine‐impacted environment, (II) address and mitigate the observed indications of environmental impacts, and (III) respond to observed changes in the receiving environment. This Code of Practice provides guidance to the Regulators and all relevant stakeholders involved in mining. Moreover, this Code of Practice is a mandatory code that applies to large and medium‐scale mining operations, addressing all phases of the mining cycle.
