| description |
The primary objective of the Southern
Gobi Regional Environmental Assessment (REA) is to provide
guidance for sustainable management of environmental
resources in the future development of the Southern Gobi
Region (SGR), development that will be led by rapid
expansion of mining. The REA defines two development
scenarios-a base-case and a high case-and explores their
direct and indirect impacts on the natural environment,
taking into account the opportunities, constraints, and
vulnerabilities of the Gobi natural systems; the individual
and cumulative direct environmental impacts and potential
indirect impacts of the planned development; and, at a
general level, the institutional capacity to manage the
impacts. The REA target audience includes government
officials at central, regional, and local levels; private
sector investors and the consultants who are engaged for
project design and environmental impact assessment;
development finance organizations; and Mongolian civil
society. This report was discussed in draft form at
stakeholder workshops held in Ulaanbaatar and Dalanzagdad in
April 2009 and has been revised to reflect comments
received. Thanks are due to all those who joined those
discussions. The report draws on information from workshops
held in Mongolia, in May, September, and October 2008, and a
field mission to the Southern Gobi Region in November 2008.
Other information was obtained from various mining companies
in Mongolia including Ivanhoe mines Mongolia, Inc., and its
consultant Eco Trade; Rio Tinto; Energy Resources LLC; and
South Gobi Sands. |
