expanded the program to accommodate additional concurrent presentations in 2021. We are excited
to bring presentation topics on fauna, flora, survey techniques, data & technology, mine closure &
rehabilitation, groundwater, climate & renewable energy, eDNA, tailings, financial assurance,
contaminated sites, native title and two interactive panel sessions.
