Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) On March 8, 2017, the Company received the second series of questions from the MDDELCC regarding details of the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) for the Lac Knife project. Subsequent to the reporting period, the Company met the MDDELCC on April 18, 2017 regarding this second series of questions. On September 28, 2017, Focus awarded a mandate to IOS Services Goscientifiques (IOS) of Chicoutimi, Qubec to conduct an independent review of the Lac Knife project ESlA and of the ongoing environmental review process by the MDDELCC, including assessing the scope of the second series of MDDELCC questions on the ESIA. A technical working committee comprised of Focus and IOS representatives was set-up in November to oversee the environmental review process, to plan the work needed to answer the second series of MDDELCC questions and to identify and award contracts to specialized external service providers. IOS is expected to submit the findings of its independent review along with its recommendations on a going-forward strategy by January 31, 2018.
