Is the Remediation Plan a “safe” plan?
A. Yes. The Remediation Plan includes clean-up methods that have been successfully used at other contaminated sites across North America. Safety measures that were developed for other clean-up projects in North America have been adopted for the remediation of Giant Mine. Managing the arsenic trioxide dust where it is currently stored will avoid the potential worker health and safety risks associated with having to move or handle the toxic material in the “take out” option.
