EDI staff worked with me on several different mine projects. Their work included a range of tasks from biological and biophysical baseline field programs and reports, preparing impact statements, mitigation and monitoring plans, reviewing Fisheries Act Authorizations, addressing regulator comments in writing and in person, and presenting at public hearings as an expert witness. EDI has provided me with strategic advice and direction for several large-scale mining proposals, which resulted in obtaining permits for construction and operation. EDI has been an essential component of the assessment leadership team and provided sound opinions and advice on approaches at competitive rates. I have always found them professional to work with.
