WRITTEN COMMENTS ON THE DRAFT REGULATIONS PERTAINING TO THE FINANCIAL PROVISION FOR THE REHABILITATION, CLOSURE AND POST CLOSURE OF PROSPECTING, EXPLORATION, MINING AND PRODUCTION OPERATIONS
The Centre for Environmental Rights (CER) submitted written comments on December 1, 2014, regarding the Draft Regulations for financial provision for the rehabilitation, closure, and post-closure of mining operations in South Africa. While the CER views the draft as a "welcome improvement" over previous systems, it argues that the regulations are too narrow in scope, lack sufficient definitions for 'rehabilitation' and 'specialist', and contain loopholes regarding trust deeds and the duration of 'care and maintenance' periods.
