CS PROJECT - RESULTS OF PUBLIC COMMENT ON ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
Further to its announcement of 15th May 2020, Sunrise Resources plc is pleased to advise the positive outcome of the public comment period on the Environmental Assessment (EA) for its CS Perlite-Pozzolan Project in Nevada, USA,
Officially the 30-day public comment period closed on 15 June 2020 and the lead regulatory agency, the Bureau of Land Management, allowed a further 7-day period for the receipt of postal submissions made on or before that date. This 7-day period closed 22 June 2020.
Only three comments were received. All three comments were federal and state agency comments of a minor nature that will be addressed by minor edits to the EA. Responses to the comments will also be provided as an appendix to the Final EA. There were no public comments or comments from Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs). Once these comments on the EA are addressed and an updated EA submitted, the Company then awaits the issuance of the Decision Record and Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) from the BLM, being the final approvals in the BLM permitting process.
Commenting today Sunrise Executive Chairman Patrick Cheetham said: "This is good news for the CS Project and, we believe, reflects the limited impact of the Project on the local environment, the mitigation measures we have proposed and the significant contribution that the use of natural pozzolan makes to a net reduction in carbon emissions."
This announcement contains inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of EU Regulation 596/2014.
