Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 8, 2021) - Pacific Booker Minerals Inc (TSXV: BKM) (OTC Pink: PBMLF) is pleased to announce the Ministers decided to rescind the Section 17(3)(c)(iii) Order (Further Assessment Order) issued in July 2015 under the Environmental Assessment Act (2002).
The Company has been advised that the EAO will now provide the referral materials to Ministers for their decision on whether or not to issue an Environmental Assessment Certificate for the Morrison project. To ensure administrative and procedural fairness of the decision, the referral materials will be limited to: materials that were provided to the then-Ministers as part of the previous 2015 decision; the 2015 Ministers' reasons for decision that led to the Further Assessment Order, and; a covering memo listing the materials within. The EAO will not be providing a new recommendation to the Ministers. Once the decision package has been provided to Ministers, the Ministers decision will be subject to a legislated timeline of 45 days.
