Royal Nickel Advances Permitting Process for the Dumont Nickel Project

02.04.2014  |  CNW

TORONTO, April 2, 2014 /CNW/ - Royal Nickel Corporation ("RNC") (TSX: RNX) is pleased to announce the publication of the Dumont Nickel Project's ("Dumont") Environmental and Social Impact Assessment ("ESIA") by the Quebec Ministry of Sustainable Development, Environment, Wildlife and Parks ("MDDEFP") through the agency of the Bureau d'audiences publiques sur l'environnement ("BAPE"). This is an important step in the permitting process and marks the beginning of the BAPE's public information and consultation process.

"I am pleased the ESIA for Dumont has been published and look forward to the initiation of the BAPE process. RNC took a very comprehensive approach in producing the ESIA, including running a voluntary public consultation process prior to and during its preparation. We integrated the results of this consultation and the feedback from provincial regulators into the ESIA. RNC remains committed to effective communication and distribution of information as a core value in the development of Dumont," said Mark Selby, Interim President and CEO.

The next permitting step is the scheduling of a public information session as part of the BAPE process. The BAPE is a public information and consultation organization which operates under a mandate from the Minister of Sustainable Development, Environment, Wildlife and Parks (the "Minister"). As part of the BAPE mandate, the first public information session for the Dumont project is scheduled to be held on April 16, 2014.

Following the public information session, public hearings may be requested by RNC and/or any other person, group, organization or municipality. The Minister will then make a decision to mandate public hearings under the BAPE process. Assuming public hearings for Dumont will be held, they are expected to take place in two parts. The first part would be to receive questions from the public and the second part would be for the BAPE to obtain the public's opinions and suggestions regarding the Dumont project. Public hearings under the BAPE process are expected to be completed before the end of the second quarter of 2014.

At the conclusion of the public hearings the BAPE will submit a report to the Minister, after which the Minister is expected to make a recommendation on the main permits which is anticipated before the end of the 2014.
