ACMER has announced that registrations are now open for the professional training event on the ‘Practical Monitoring and Improved Environmental Performance for the Minerals Industry’.
The session will be held between 22 and 24 June 2009 at The University of Queensland, Brisbane, Queensland.
ACMER says that mining operations today are committed to continual improvement in implementing leading practice and ensuring that monitoring and auditing are conducted to evaluate and improve environmental performance.
Leading practice requires monitoring programs that both enable mine and minerals processing sites to comply with or exceed legislative requirements and also inform site management of unexpected changes in water quality and quantity.
ACMER says that this course will focus on practical aspects of water monitoring and data handling interpretation supported by an appropriate level of theory.
The course will also include a water sampling exercise, where participants will have an opportunity to apply their knowledge to a practical situation and to experience some of the quality control, data analysis, interpretation and reporting issues involved in water sampling.
Please not that early-bird registration closing date is 15th May 2009.
