Recommendation Detail

HEP-056

Human Environment (People) VCs High Priority

Request the formal inclusion of the Local Services Board of Melgund in the collaborative process for confirming mitigation measures, which currently only lists 'WLON and the Township of Ignace' (Section 19.2.2.2.2).

Strategic Rationale

"The Initial Project Description explicitly identifies the Township of Ignace and WLON as collaborators for confirming mitigation measures but omits Melgund. As the host or immediate neighbor, Melgund's exclusion marginalizes local interests. Formally adding the Local Services Board to this list ensures that mitigation strategies address the specific socio-economic and safety realities of Melgund residents, rather than just those of the regional hub in Ignace. This provides an opportunity to secure binding input on project management."
