ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT BG MINING SDN. BHD. KENEP CONSULTANCY & SERVICES Page 10- 1 KCS/SPEG/405-EIA-0918-2321 CHAPTER 10 10.0 STUDY FINDINGS The Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) of The Proposed Bauxite Mining Operation In Bukit Goh and Bukit Kuantan With an Area of 3,642.176 Hectares (9,000.000 Acres) In Mukim Kuala Kuantan, District of Kuantan, Pahang Darul Makmur describes its inherent bio-geophysical and economics system. The impacts that will arise from the activities of the proposed project have been highlighted and its subsequent mitigating measures have been proposed. The available ore reserve to be mined and the readily available demand from market have made the proposed mine viable. The study has shown that with proper mitigation measures undertaken, the proposed Project will not present any significant long-term residual impacts on the environment and population in vicinity the Project area. Activities associated with the operations such as excavation of bauxite, processing of bauxite (washing), transportation and hauling the bauxite may cause significant impacts if proper management and controls are not undertaken. However, with the proper mitigation measures recommended in this report, the proposed mining operation could be carried out in an environmental friendly manner. The proposed mine is not expected to generate any disturbance to surrounding as there is adequate buffer zone of 10m from the boundary along the perimeter of Project site, for the mine operation to be carried out in an orderly manner. Therefore, the Project Proponent have place high consideration to implement mitigation measures and controls with high commitment in order to avoid or at least be minimized and localized the impacts within the boundary of the Project area.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT BG MINING SDN. BHD. KENEP CONSULTANCY & SERVICES Page 10- 2 KCS/SPEG/405-EIA-0918-2321 To ensure effectiveness of the measures formulated, monitoring programmes (see Chapter 9) are recommended. Results of the monitoring programmes would be useful in determining the residual impacts (if any) that may result from the proposed mining operations on the environment and remedial action to be undertaken as soon as possible if necessary. BG Mining Sdn. Bhd.’s effort to commission an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Study, thereby taking into consideration all environmental-friendly approaches and also incorporating pollution control measures (especially for air, noise and water quality control) in their future operation is commendable and should be given a strong support from all relevant parties. Rehabilitation programme of the mined area is also part of the long-term planning for the Project. Given the favourable outcome of the environmental assessment undertaken in this study, it is therefore recommended that the Project should be granted a full environmental approval by the Department of Environment and other authority concerned in order for the Project to commence its operation.
