Ambler mining district industrial access project (AMDIAP)

The U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM), which is the lead agency for the permitting of the Ambler mining district industrial access project, has now completed the draft environmental impact statement (EIS), which has been posted on the BLM website. The next step is a public comment period. Comments on the draft EIS will be accepted through Oct. 14, 2019.

Rick Van Nieuwenhuyse, president and chief executive officer of Trilogy Metals, commented: "The completion of the draft EIS marks a critical step in the permitting of the AMDIAP, which is crucial to unlocking the incredible mineral wealth within the Ambler mining district. The development of the Ambler district will lead to the generation of thousands of high paying jobs for the residents of Alaska. I want to commend the BLM and all co-operating agencies for getting the draft EIS done and look forward to completing the permitting of the road."
