This 1-hour webinar is intended to provide information about provincial and federal environmental legislative changes that have occurred in the mining sector.
We will also look at changes that may be coming in the next year to provide participants with compliance updates and discuss tools and practices for managing a legal registry.
Learn why breeding bird surveys and nest searches are performed, the legislation that enforces these studies, and the protocols that guide these activities. Gain insight into the Migratory Birds Convention Act (MBCA) and learn how to how to identify nests with eggs and how to protect those nests from activities like tree clearing.
Learn to effectively navigate the permitting & compliance requirements for mining & exploration projects in Ontario. Receive a comprehensive overview of the environmental responsibilities that exist within the framework of a modern-day mining operation. Among the topics covered are a discussion of the federal and provincial legislative frameworks and their application to the resource industry, environmental permit requirements and the permitting process, the role of Indigenous consultation on the permitting process, and an introduction to environmental management and compliance programs.
Our practical hands-on workshop is designed to provide training for environmental technicians hired by industry to monitor environmental management practices at mining operations in Ontario.
Students will experience an overview of fieldwork monitoring, environmental data entry and interpretation, environmental regulatory requirements, and compliance reporting.
The workshop is a mix of both classroom and field exercises. Proper seasonal apparel and PPE is required (i.e. CSA Approved footwear, reflective vest, hard hat, safety glasses, and gloves).
Discover the various types of environmental inspections typically conducted by internal personnel at industrial sites, including inspections of waste, chemical, and fuel storage areas.
Learn why particular inspections are required (i.e. regulatory vs. site-driven requirement), when to perform inspections, and how to record and manage inspection results.
The MDMER course is a detailed review of the regulatory requirements and associated guidance documents providing an in-depth review of the criteria for compliance, monitoring and reporting requirements.
Participants will review the regulation itself in detail, highlighting key points and interpreting the requirements for their sites.

Common to most construction projects and industrial sites, fuel storage is an area of high risk for spills and potential harm to the environment.
This session will review the regulatory requirements in detail for fuel storage, and best practices for managing fuel storage. Participants will also practice what they have learned by auditing virtual fuel storage scenarios using the training materials provided.
In Canada, working outdoors during the warm months requires a considerable amount of preparation. The northern Ontario climate presents challenges that call for added attention to safety when considering warmth, remoteness, and hydration.
This training event will prepare your environmental field crews and summer students to perform environmental monitoring in a safe manner. Topics include: Safety plans, communication procedures, Personal Protective Equipment, Wildlife Encounters, Vehicle Safety and Environmental Conditions
Internal environmental auditor training helps environmental practitioners to determine whether their operations are in compliance with Federal and Provincial environmental regulations.
This two-day workshop provides a review of environmental regulations in Canada and Ontario, as it applies to each participant’s site, and then provides hands-on exercises to practice auditing and identify gaps that need to be addressed.
