Faro Mine: Monthly Archives - April 2009
New Care and Maintenance page is up and running!
April 6, 2009
The public will now be able to access water quality data and other relevant information about ongoing care and maintenance activities at the Faro Mine Complex (FMC). Water quality data is presented in graphical format that allows comparison with discharge standards. This is a pilot project and will be expanded over time to include all data generated as part of the ongoing closure planning process.
The new ‘Care and Maintenance’ section of the website provides a summary of care and maintenance activities at the FMC, descriptions of key monitoring locations throughout the site, and water quality graphs and data with explanations of what types of things are being monitored at each site. The mine complex has over 300 active monitoring sites for water quality with more than 1000 water quality samples collected annually in and near the complex.
Please visit the new Care and Maintenance section of the website for more details.
