With a view to ensuring the proper construction and maintenance of mining waste facilities, it is the responsibility of the operator to ensure that the design, the decision on the location and the construction of the mining waste facilities are made by technicians with the required certification by law. In addition, the management of the facilities will be in charge of the Optional Director, in accordance with article 117.3 of the Mining Act. In the case of subcontracting to external companies the work of managing the waste facility, the supervision of the waste facility will also fall to the figure of the Optional Director. In addition, the competent authorities should be able to verify to their satisfaction that the operators take the appropriate measures with regard to the construction and maintenance of any new waste facility or in respect of any other waste facility.
- The Ministry of Health and Social Policy will collaborate in carrying out the inventory in case of mining waste facilities that can cause a serious threat to human health.
- It promises to restore commerce, make agriculture prosperous, expand industry, encourage arts and letters, wipe out poverty, etc., etc.
- “The second is composed of articles that have undergone preliminary fabrication. This preliminary fabrication warrants the levying of some duties.” Here protection begins, because, according to the petitioners, domestic labor starts contributing to the product.
- All of them will be reflected in the exploitation plan.
- The operator shall also provide the competent authority with the information necessary to ensure compliance with the water legislation.
- No matter how varied the employment given to the remainder, its total quantity is not increased, any more than the water of a pond becomes more abundant when it is distributed in a number of reservoirs; precisely because it covers more ground and presents a greater surface to the sun, more water is absorbed, evaporated, and lost.
- Instead, I believe that the opposition to free trade rests upon errors, or, if you prefer, upon half-truths.
But, for our part, we cannot limit ourselves to the consideration of a single cause and its immediate effect. We know that this effect itself becomes in its turn a cause. In order to pass judgment on a measure, we must, then, trace it through the whole chain of its effects to its final result. In other words, we are reduced, quite frankly, to an appeal to reason.
Differential Tariffs
The competent authority shall monitor the evolution of the best available techniques for the management of the mining waste and the facilities in which it is deposited, even after closure. For the purposes of the above, the Ministry of Industry, Tourism and Trade and the Ministry of the Environment, and the Rural and Marine Environment will provide you with information on such techniques. (c) Confirmation that the installation of mining waste is subject to the regulatory provisions implementing this royal decree and, where appropriate, that the relevant elements have been Affectation Fixed and Variable Costs on the Marginal Cost of Production submitted to the competent authority of information and in particular those referred to in paragraph 2 of this Article. In the event of the reuse of mining waste during other phases of the life of the plant, the operator shall request authorisation from the competent authority, after inclusion in the memory of the constructive project of the description of the work to be carried out in the annual work plan or in a project submitted for that purpose. (a) Ininert, non-inert, non-hazardous and non-contaminated mining waste from research and exploitation of mineral resources.
- As for the hired hands, there was no more work for them than before.
- 55% of simulations have achieved a double dividend, concluding that although the environmental dividend is almost always achieved, the economic dividend still remains an ambiguous question that needs further research.
- Finally, too late, his ill-health forced him to Italy, and he died at Rome, at the age of forty-nine, on Christmas Eve, 1850.
- Average total cost of the sterile in situ sterile cubic meter moved and transported to landfill.
- In what does the immediate self-interest of the consumer consist?
- B) Decommissioning and rehabilitation of areas of ancillary facilities such as ships, buildings, civil works, etc.
- E) Determination of the hydrological balance of the facility.
It adopts, so to speak, a system of industrial rotation that is more complicated, yet no more fruitful. Indeed, the contrary is the case, since the same amount of capital and labor has to contend with a greater number of natural difficulties. A larger share of its circulating capital, which constitutes the wages fund, must be converted into fixed capital. No matter how varied the employment given to the remainder, its total quantity is not increased, any more than the water of a pond becomes more abundant when it is distributed in a number of reservoirs; precisely because it covers more ground and presents a greater surface to the sun, more water is absorbed, evaporated, and lost. If fifteen million francs’ worth of goods sold abroad are taken from the normal production, estimated at fifty million francs, the remaining thirty-five million francs’ worth of goods, being no longer capable of satisfying normal demand, will increase in price and rise to the value of fifty million francs.
Recommended articles
Upon completion of the implementation of the restoration plan as regards the exploitation, preparation, concentration and benefit of mineral resources, the operator shall request the competent authority, in writing, to release the security. In the event of non-compliance with the approved restoration plan, the competent authority may make the financial guarantee or equivalent equivalent effective and shall carry out the rehabilitation of the land affected by the plan. The competent authority shall provide the public concerned, free of charge and on its own initiative, with the publicity procedures to be established, information on safety measures and on the necessary intervention in the event of an accident involving a Installation of mining waste in category A. In cases and with the frequency to be determined by the competent authority, the operator shall forward, on the basis of the overall data, all the results of the monitoring to the competent authorities in order to demonstrate that the conditions are met.
The burden of proof rests exclusively upon them. Hence, it follows that free trade is always to be deemed good until the contrary is proved, for free trade consists in allowing prices to be arrived at naturally. It was not one of those supreme industrial councils, where big landlords who call themselves farmers, influential shipowners who think of themselves as sailors, and wealthy stockholders who pretend to be laborers, practice their well-known form of humanitarianism. And since a great number of your fellow legislators, with whom you have a perfect understanding, each takes from me a sou or two—one under the pretext of protecting iron; another, coal; this one, oil; and that one, wheat—I find, when everything is taken into account, that of my thirty sous I have been able to save only fifteen from being plundered. In that case, there must exist in society some natural and providential force, some law that causes iniquity progressively to decline and justice no less inexorably to prevail. This period, which is ordinarily quite long, is one of rebellions and insurrections.

The construction of the mining waste facilities will be carried out by the optional director, according to Article 117 of the Mining Act. The hydrological study of the site aims to evaluate the maximum flow rates and the rainfall in the area of the location of the mining waste facility, and to know the influence of these inputs to define the construction of the facility, its drainage systems and the diversion of surface water, as well as the prevention or reduction of surface water pollution. Do require a minimum or, if possible, no maintenance and control after the closure of the mining waste facility. The filling with mining waste from the operating gap, in so far as this is technically and economically feasible in practice and environmentally friendly in accordance with the rules in force and with the requirements of this royal decree, where applicable.
Be that as it may, Mr. Cabinet Minister and Manufacturer, knowing that I should be ill-received, I do not come to you and demand, as I have a full right to do, that you withdraw the restriction you are imposing on your customers; I prefer to follow the prevailing fashion and claim a little protection for myself. They are not worth more than twenty-six, for instead of expelling the Belgian manufacturer at your expense (which would be the very least you could do), you make me pay for the people whom, in your interest, you set at his heels. Perhaps society must pass through this prosaic stage, in which men practice virtue out of self-interest, so that they may thence rise to the more poetic sphere in which they will no longer have need of such a motive.
