Falco Resources Invites Citizens to an Immersive Workshop on the Acoustic and Vibratory Climate Ahead of the Imminent Announcement of a BAPE
09 Julho 2024 - 7:31AM
Falco Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: FPC) (
“Falco” or the
“Corporation”) invites the citizens of
Rouyn-Noranda to an
immersive public workshop
where they will be able to meet acoustic and vibration experts,
experience sound and vibration simulations, share their concerns
and participate in the discussion on issues related to the sound
and vibratory climate.
This workshop will be held on Wednesday,
July 17th, from 6 p.m. at the
Centre des Congrès de Rouyn-Noranda. In addition to the
simulation stations, a presentation, followed by a question period,
led by acoustics experts will begin at 7 p.m. The activity will be
a unique opportunity to learn more about the sound and vibration
phenomena that surround us.
Martin Duclos, Manager, Environment and
Community Relations, said: “The concerns expressed by the
neighborhood surrounding the project regarding sounds and
vibrations are legitimate. We recognize that there may be a
specific cohabitation challenge during the construction period and
that we wish to address it with them.”
As a reminder, Falco’s entire team is available
to answer the population’s questions, whether concerning Falco’s
Horne 5 project or the imminent holding of a public hearing by the
“Bureau des audiences publiques en environnement” (BAPE).
In this regard, Falco welcomes the organization
of a planning workshop, which was held on July 7th in Rouyn-Noranda
under the theme: How to fully participate in the BAPE of Falco's
Horne 5 project. This activity, initiated by the “Conseil régional
de l’environnement de l’Abitibi-Témiscamingue” (CREAT), whose main
mandate is to ensure consultation between all stakeholders in
Abitibi-Témiscamingue around environmental issues, and Mining Watch
Canada, the “Coalition Québec meilleur mine” and the “Comité
citoyen de protection de l’Esker”, is an additional tool that helps
to promote full citizen participation in the BAPE.
Falco encourages citizens and organizations to
actively participate in the upcoming BAPE process, either by asking
questions or sharing their opinions through briefs and comments on
the project. The Corporation is convinced that significant citizen
participation in this democratic process is essential since a
substantive discussion must take place on the challenges specific
to the socio-environmental and economic context of
Rouyn-Noranda.
Hélène Cartier, Vice-President, Environment,
Sustainable Development and Community Relations, declared: “We hope
that people will participate in large numbers in the upcoming BAPE
by asking their questions and submitting briefs. Their commitment
is important to us and fits with our vision of building a mine with
the community and serving the community. We have a role to play in
the future of Rouyn-Noranda and we intend to be a catalyst for
positive change.”
We invite the population to come and meet our
team at Espace Falco, located at 157, avenue Principale, in
Rouyn-Noranda.
