Nunatsiaq 2011-04-15: Nunavut’s Mary River i
NunatsiaqOnline 2011-04-15: NEWS: Nunavut’s Mary River iron mine may end up twice as big: draft EIS
The promoters of the Mary River iron mine in North Baffin have a plan for everything.
These plans are spelled out in volumes nine and 10 of their draft Environmental Impact Statement, which deal with their environmental, health and safety management systems and the mine’s cumulative effects.
This final portion of the draft EIS shows there’s also a high level uncertainty involved in the entire project as it’s presented in the EIS, which runs to more than 5,000 pages.
That’s because the Mary River mine, recently acquired from Baffinland Iron Mines Corp. by the steel—making giant ArcelorMittal, may expand to twice the size predicted in the draft EIS.
So, instead of mining 21 million tonnes of iron ore a year over 21 years, the mine would also grow to include rich nearby iron deposits, doubling its production and lasting many years longer.
If these deposits are developed, on land, this means emissions from waste incineration and dust could cumulatively affect local air quality, the draft EIS says.
As well, there could be effects on Arctic char health and condition habitat and some “direct mortality.”
“The credible development scenario of a doubling of production at Mary River” would also mean twice as much shipping. This would result in a ship transits every day along the southern and northern shipping routes, the draft EIS says.
This increase in shipping frequency would likely increase the potential for cumulative effects, increasing the likelihood that more than one ore carrier will be in a given area at the same time — so shipping could have more of an impact on marine mammals during the ice-covered season, and, during the open-water period, on whales and narwhals in Eclipse Sound and Milne Inlet.
There would also be an increase in temperatures in the immediate vicinity of the dock sites of the mine’s two ports.
And the amount of land-fast ice disrupted as a result of a larger mine “may conservatively be doubled.”
More ships in Steensby Port (and possibly Milne Port) could also lead to a doubling of the amount of ballast water released from ships.

Quebec vs Moses Agreement: Enviromental Assessments in Northern Quebec
Attorney General of Quebec v. Moses - Supreme Court of Canada decision on environmental assessments in northern Quebec
By Charles Kazaz
Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP
On May 14, 2010 the Supreme Court of Canada handed down its long awaited decision in Attorney General of Quebec v. Moses.
The decision deals with issues related to the applicability of Federal environmental impact assessment (“EIA”) legislation in the territory covered by the James Bay and Northern Quebec Agreement (“JBNQA”).
In a 5-4 decision the Supreme Court of Canada concluded that the proponent of the Project could not proceed without a Federal fisheries permit and that the Quebec Court of Appeal decision should be varied to require compliance with the Federal EIA process rather than the JBNQA EIA process. The issuance of the Federal fisheries permit is also subject to the Crown’s duty to consult with the Cree to the extent that it may adversely affect their rights under the agreement.
Background
The JBNQA is a modern treaty between the Government of Canada, the Government of Quebec and the Cree and Inuit of Northern Quebec. It establishes a specific environmental and social protection regime that applies to the territory covered by the agreement. The EIA process will differ depending on whether the Project is under federal or provincial jurisdiction.
Under the JBNQA, if a project is of provincial jurisdiction the EIA process is conducted through a committee composed of members of the Quebec government and the Cree and decisions are made by a Provincial Administrator. If a project is of federal jurisdiction the EIA process is conducted through a committee composed of members of the Federal government and the Cree and decisions are made by a Federal Administrator. In exceptional circumstances a review can be conducted by a joint federal-provincial panel.

U.S.: BP Handling of Claims Slammed by Gulf Residents
U.S.: BP Handling of Claims Slammed by Gulf Residents - IPS ipsnews.net
NEW ORLEANS, Louisiana, Apr 17, 2011 (IPS) - Attorney Kenneth Feinberg, paid by BP to administer the firm's 20-billion-dollar compensation fund, has become the focal point of anger for Gulf residents who are angry, frustrated and desperate for help following last year's massive oil disaster.
"Most of the people I care about are hungry, they've lost their house, they're losing their cars," Cherri Foytlin, the co-founder of Gulf Change, a community organisation in Louisiana, told IPS.
"I've met so many people who had red beans and rice for dinner last Christmas while this man's firm is getting 850,000 dollars a month for this," she said. "I saw people on their knees in these meetings begging this man. I don't know how he sleeps at night. He takes money from BP and claims to represent and care about people in the Gulf."
Foytlin refers to Feinberg's firm being paid approximately one million dollars per month by

WATERSHED MANAGEMENT AND CUMULATIVE EFFECTS:Bev Yee
Where regulators once looked at point sources emissions and individual tributaries, the management of surface and groundwater has moved to the management of overall watersheds and counting up all of the current and potential impacts. Canadian and American lawyer and regulators will give their expert insights and give you a better understanding of how these changes affect the developments that are proposed by or that may impact upon your clients.
Here Bev Yee, discusses the newly released draft of the Alberta Government position of the Lower Athabasca River watershed. Very good intentions announced. It was a strange session! Because following her was Judy Stewart ,who gave a counter argument concerning disappearing Wetlands. The fire Alarm went off, but nobody moved- and which hampered her speaking.

Before boarding the Gondola, we were each issued with a choice of either red or white wine.While gliding to the top of the mountain,we sipped and chatted. Reps from across Canada, and the states ,and Austrailia and South Africa. Finger food was served. I tried some alfafa sprouts rolled in raw fish. People kindly put up with me, but now I realise that I have to practice shaking hands with my left hand. A bit late realisation.
SPECIFIC WATER ISSUES INVOLVING SHALE GAS AND COAL‐BED METHANE
Certain industries create insatiable demand for or unique challenges related to water and water
protection. None are more topical then the extraction of natural gas from coal beds and shale deposits.
Can the demand for energy be safely balanced against the protection of vast volumes of groundwater?
Attend and find out about the risk, opportunities and whether the regulatory frameworks and common
law and civil law protections are up to the task.
