Former engineer Todd Martin, engineer Laura Fidel, and former engineer Stephen Rice face a range of penalties arising from the disciplinary proceedings.
Martin was the senior geotechnical engineer responsible for the work at the Mount Polley Mine. He admitted that some of his work was not consistent with engineering practice and has agreed to pay a $25,000 fine and $69,000 for the regulator’s legal fees.Article content
The discipline panel found Fidel committed several acts of unprofessional conduct at the mine, including failing to ensure sufficient site visits and failing to monitor seepage flows which could lead to unsafe conditions. She was suspended for two months and ordered to take education courses on tailings management.
During the investigation, the regulator says it reviewed thousands of documents including contracts, technical reports and drawings, correspondence, and daily site reports.
