Environmental Assessment
Volume A-2
Introduction
History
After and in conjunction with Dynatec’s upgraded geological drilling campaign
in 2003 and 2004, Dynatec conducted site rehabilitation of roads and platforms,
with staff from local villages. This work is ongoing.
Two village-level nursery projects were made operational recently, providing a
fair proportion of the saplings used in the Dynatec revegetation campaign. The
remainder of the saplings are grown by a project-level nursery which employs a
small staff of local people.
Two agreements were also ratified, one with the government on the project’s
participation in re-establishing the connectivity of the Ankeniheny-Zahamena
corridor, the other with local partners on the development and conservation of the
Torotorofotsy Ramsar site.
Since 1996, and throughout the restoration of exploration disturbances, the
project has maintained community health support with the presence of an MD
conducting village-level consultations out of a local community dispensary.
