After the first month of operation, the pre-treatment system for our mining effluent has met all discharge targets. The initial commissioning was delayed by two weeks due to a pump specification mismatch, but the AQC team resolved it on site. The weekly monitoring reports are clear and include the required parameters under the Metal and Diamond Mining Effluent Regulations. We will review the system again after the next quarterly sampling.

Communication during the setup phase was direct and without unnecessary delays. The project manager provided a weekly call every Tuesday at 10:00, and the technical documentation for the equalization basin was delivered three days ahead of schedule. The only point of friction was the late approval of the electrical submittal by the city inspector, which was outside AQC's control. For the next phase, we agreed on a shared online folder for all drawings.

This is our second engagement with AQC. The first was a due diligence review for a water rights acquisition in 2023. This time we contracted them for the municipal water resource plan update. The continuity of the project team meant we did not have to re-explain our watershed context. The draft plan was submitted on the contractual date, and the public consultation materials were prepared in both official languages as required.
