As it assured that water temperature changes from its sixth planned offshore oil extraction project, Whiptail will be minimal and should have negligible impact on marine life, ExxonMobil yesterday brought its public discussions on the project to Georgetown.
It also disclosed that it will once again use the company, Environmental Resources Management (ERM) to undertake the impact study.
With few local participants at yesterday’s scoping session, Project Manager (Guyana) Anthony Jackson urged that the public send questions about concerns that they have about the Whip-tail project to the EPA, so as to help guide the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) process and ensure that proper analyses and mitigation measures are included.
