BQE Water is a Vancouver-based service provider specializing in water treatment and management for metals mining, smelting and refining. The Eagle gold mine is situated on the traditional territory of the First Nation Na-Cho Nyäk Dun (FNNND) in central Yukon.
BQE Water’s scope includes recommendations for updates to the existing water management infrastructure to increase the site’s ability and adaptability to treat the present contaminant loading, which the infrastructure was not designed for, and to meet all applicable discharge targets.
The company is also responsible for planning and directing the operation of the updated water treatment infrastructure. In its role, BQE Water coordinates all activities very closely with all project stakeholders and interested parties, including the Yukon government and the FNNND.
Margaret Dumkee, the interim CEO of the Na-Cho Nyäk Dun Development Corporation, commented: “We truly appreciate the effort by BQE Water to help address the emergency situation at Eagle mine, which is very important to the Nation.
“We value not only BQE’s technical expertise but also their genuine effort for transparent, coordinated, and holistic approach to bringing the water situation at the mine under control and involving the FNNND citizens and businesses in the process.”
