The Western Australian Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) has granted potash developer Australian Potash consent to proceed with minor and preliminary works at its Lake Wells sulphide of potash (SOP) project, while the environmental review process continues.
“Our team has been working very closely with the EPA to ensure all aspects of the proposed Lake Wells SOP development meet or exceed required standards for the protection of the broader environment at Lake Wells. The environmental review document is now at Stage 3 of the four stage EPA assessment process,” said Australian Potash MD and CEO Matt Shackleton.
