“Our client’s submission and comments on the draft ESIA, in summary, are that the Competent Authority should find that:
the Public Participation Process has neither adequate nor meaningful;
TEEPSA has not obtained its Social Licence to Operate nor received the Free, Prior, and Informed Consent of the Indigenous Communities who will be most impacted by the adverse effects resulting from TEEPSA’s exploration activities;”
