The BC EAO is managing the environmental assessment in a Substituted Process on behalf of British Columbia and the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency.\n\nHaving finalized the AIR with the EAO, AuRico Metals has completed its Environmental Assessment (\"EA\") application and has submitted copies of the EA application to the three First Nations who are collectively the Tse Keh Nay.
