SANCOLD YPF Webinar: How Big is Your Dirty Water Dam? (How Big Should it Be?)

Dirty water systems must be designed, constructed, maintained and operated so that they are not likely to spill into any clean water system more than once in 50 years – this to comply with the Regulations on Use of Water for Mining and Related Activities Aimed at the Protection of Water Resources (No. 704 of 1999) of the National Water Act (No. 36 of 1998). But it may not be as simple (or as quick) as you may think! Join us for a shallow dive into this interesting topic, where we will discuss what you can do to help owners of dirty water systems to proactively manage the risk of spill events and the associated unwanted environmental and social impacts.
