IQPC Podcast with Dr John Yeats - Magellan Metals

IQPC podcast interview with Dr John Yeats, Vice President, Corporate Social Responsibility - Magellan Metals. We explore the challenges currently faced within the mining WA, and the potential impact and effect of the EPA's 'risk based' approach to mined lands. Dr Yeats will present at IQPC's Environmental Management in Mining next February on adopting a risk based approach to key stages of the EIA process: Examining both the likelihood and the significance of potential environmental impacts in order to give key environmental issues due priority • Promoting Procedural Fairness Guidelines in the Environmental Assessment Process • Ensuring risk considerations are integrated into the impact assessment process to provide a systematic means of determining significance of impact • Ensuring a risk-based approach is applied to the provision of advice by advising agencies, referrals, scoping of proposals and proposed environmental conditions • Providing a systematic and transparent method to determine significance of impacts and assist with making decisions on what is to be referred to EPA.
