Ways that Keepers of the Athabasca team participated in the hearings around the Frontier Oil Sands Mine project, by Teck Resources Ltd.

We have many unacknowledged environmental and human health impacts from existing bitumen mines, with currently over a billion cubic metres of toxic tailings. Keepers of the Athabasca is one of the intervenors working hard to stop a proposal for the biggest bitumen mine yet.

The Joint Review Panel convenes on September 25, 2018 to review Teck's application for a brand new bitumen mine in Alberta. This, the largest and most northerly mine yet, is right next to endangered UNESCO world heritage site, the Wood Buffalo National Park, and the application runs over 4000 pages.
