Discharge of treated TSF water into water shedI believe that part of the problem with the tailings dam collapse was a results of the BC Gov't not allowing for release of treated water back into the local water systems. This make absolutely no sense when you look at and understand what Pulp and Paper mills are allowed to discharge into BC water ways.
With a reasonable discharge strategy of treated water at Mt Polley the dam collapse may have been avoided or materially reduced relative to its full impact.
Any other thoughts on this?
