Recommendation Detail

HEP-103

Human Environment (People) Effects Assessment High Priority

Request the specific operational details of the 'social safety' framework and the implementation plan for 'Call for Justice 13' regarding extractive industries, as cited in the Proponent's submission.

Strategic Rationale

"The Proponent's submission acknowledges the 'ongoing risks' associated with 'extractive and development industries' and commits to a 'social safety' framework. However, Melgund Township (Dyment/Borups Corners) is an unorganized territory with **ZERO** local police presence. The influx of a transient workforce presents a critical safety risk that cannot be managed by distant regional detachments (Ignace/Dryden). The Proponent must demonstrate self-sufficiency in security and policing capacity, as the community has no local resources to absorb these social risks. This gap must be addressed to ensure the physical safety of residents."
