Request specific evidence and case studies demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed 'proven' mitigation measures for preventing soil contamination from fugitive dust and effluent in conditions similar to the Melgund area.
Strategic Rationale
The text admits a 'moderate likelihood' of residual effects on soil and sediment quality from dust and effluent but categorizes the final risk as 'low' based on the assumption that mitigation will be 100% effective. Given Melgund's reliance on the land for hunting and gathering, the Board requires proof that these measures will effectively contain contaminants in this specific environment, rather than relying on general industry assertions.
