Environmental Monitoring Solutions for Mining: Regulatory Compliance & Worker Safety

Why monitoring and mining go hand in hand.

If you’re in mining operations, you know weather monitoring, data, and alerting are key to both employee safety and regulatory compliance. Without the proper planning, equipment, and mitigation, severe weather can flood a mine, damage equipment, injure workers, or disperse unintended pollutants.

Make no mistake: because severe weather events are getting larger and more common, the regulatory scrutiny on mining companies related to environmental impact and worker safety will only accelerate.

When managing complicated mining operations, it can feel as though Mother Nature is not your ally. That’s why AEM is here to help. Start a conversation with one of our Mining Solutions Specialists, or just keep reading to learn about how we keep people safe in the face of growing weather risks.
