Several times a year, the quality of well water in the villages closest to the industrial activities is checked by an independent sworn laboratory. Its agents come from Bogor to take water samples, which are immediately analyzed in the presence of village representatives. The results are communicated to the authorities to verify that the entire sampling and analysis process is carried out within the regulatory framework and environmental authorizations, and that the water quality meets current standards.
PT Weda Bay Nickel is committed to respecting the quality of the water that flows through its operations before reaching rivers and villages. This is why water samples are also taken at the outlet of the mine sedimentation basins, with the results automatically forwarded to the provincial authorities.
