ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT IMPACTS
HVN will undertake an environmental assessment process that will outline the environmental impact of the expansion, taking into account inter-related socio-economic, cultural, and human health impacts. This report will provide a clear road map to help us develop mitigation techniques that protect the surrounding environment and the quality of life for residents living near HVN.
