1 IMPACT ASSESSMENT APPROACHES IN GREENLAND PARNUNA EGEDE PH.D. FELLOW MONTREAL, APRIL

2 Outline Who am I, and what is my Ph.D. project about Impact assessment regimes in Greenland - Historical context - Cultural context - SEA - EIA - SIA - EIA / SIA stages Thank you

3 Parnuna Egede - Inuk from Nuuk, Greenland Biologist & PhD Fellow

4 3-year Ph.D. project Topic: The application of indigenous knowledge in environmental impact assessments of extractive industry projects in Greenland and the Canadian Arctic

5 Impact assessment regimes in Greenland Photo: Bjarne Ababsi Lyberth

6 Historical context

7 Historical context 1721: Christian missionaries from Denmark 1921: Danish colony 1953: Danish county 1979: Act on Greenland Home rule 2009: Act on Greenland Self-Government

8 Historical context 2009: Act on Greenland Self-Government Expands jurisdiction over natural resources area Mechanism for independence from Denmark - Requires economic self-sufficiency - Makes natural resource projects more political - Affects impact assessment regimes

9 Cultural context Photo: Mads Peter Heide-Jørgensen

10 Cultural context About 80% of population in Greenland are Inuit Public government not distinguished by ethnicity (officially) Influenced by Danish/European systems Use of terms like Greenlandic instead of Inuit, local knowledge instead of indigenous knowledge and public participation instead of indigenous consultation

11 Cultural context Greenland has ratified ILO C169 and adopted UNDRIP Self-Government Act considered as implementation of ILO C169 and UNDRIP - But no mention of Indigenous Peoples in the act? Inuit led by Inuit in political democratic system - Any need of Free Prior and Informed Consent, and Indigenous Peoples consultation now?

12 Impact assessment regimes Strategic Environmental Impact Assessment (SEIA) Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Social Impact Assessment (SIA)

13 Strategic Environmental Impact Assessment Photo: Bjarne Ababsi Lyberth

14 Strategic Environmental Impact Assessment Short mention in legislation - no description Ad-hoc requests by Self-government 10 regional SEIAs focusing on mineral resources Cooperation between authorities and scientific institutions No public participation during process Public hearing before final approval

15 Environmental Impact Assessment Photo: Vincent Desrosiers, VDOpro.co

16 Environmental Impact Assessment Two systems: National EIA legislation Mineral Resources Act (MRA) EIA legislation

17 National EIA legislation Act on the Protection of Nature Order on the EIA of certain facilities and payment for environmental monitoring Mirrors EU s EIA Directive Rarely used - few large infrastructure projects

18 Mineral Resources Act EIA legislation Act on Mineral Resources and Mineral Resource Activities Several guidelines for preparing EIA reports for hydrocarbon and mineral resource activities EAMRA responsible for EIA process MLSA responsible for coordinating and licencing (one-stop shop)

19 Mineral Resources Act EIA legislation Authorities - relationships and roles Ministry of Mineral Resources Ministry of Independency, Nature, Environment and Agriculture Mineral Licence and Safety Authority (MLSA) Environment Agency for Mineral Resources Activities (EAMRA)

20 Social Impact Assessment Photo: Bjarne Ababsi Lyberth

21 Social Impact Assessment Two systems: Mineral Resources Act (MRA) SIA legislation National SIA legislation

22 Mineral Resources Act SIA legislation Act on Mineral Resources and Mineral Resource Activities Guidelines on the process and preparation of the SIA report for mineral projects Ministry of Industry, Labour and Trade responsible for SIA process MLSA responsible for coordinating and licencing (one-stop shop)

23 National SIA legislation No legislation as such only guidelines Ad-hoc requests by Ministry of Health and Infrastructure for larger infrastructure projects E.g. Guidelines for Social Impact Assessment for establishing the airport in Qaqortoq Inspired by Mineral Resources Act SIAs

24 EIA / SIA stages Screening: All projects require EIA/SIA - except small-scale mining Scoping & Environmental Study Program: 35-day public pre-hearing Draft EIA/SIA report: Public consultations

25 EIA / SIA stages Review: If compliant, 8-week public hearing incl. public meetings White paper: Incorporates all oral/written comments and whether they lead to report changes Final EIA/SIA report: Made public incl. white paper Permit and licencing phase: After approval

26 Qujanaq Thank you! Photo: René Mathæussen
