Environmental groups and First Nations say they are pleased the federal government is adding another proposed coal mine in Alberta s Rocky Mountains to the list of projects it will review. This decision should be applauded by all who believe environmental assessments should be inclusive, participatory processes,â said a statement from Ian Urquhart of the Alberta Wilderness Association.
On Monday, federal Environment Minister Jonathan Wilkinson said Montem Resources proposed Tent Mountain project should be reviewed by the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada because it could release the contaminant selenium, an element commonly found in coal-bearing rock that is toxic to fish at high levels.
