Lawyers for applicants in judicial review against EPA seek clarity on radioactive storage company’s planned public engagement

By way of letter, attorneys for the applicants in the Judicial Review case filed against the Environmental Protection Agency, the Environmental Assessment Board and Schlumberger Guyana Inc (SGI) have written to IMEX Inc requesting an explanation for its recently announced public engagement.

In the letter sent to IMEX Inc, which is acting on behalf of Schlumberger, and seen by this newspaper, Attorney Malene Alleyne informed the company that the public invitation did not specify the purpose of the stakeholder engagement.

According to the invitation, published in Friday’s edition of the Stabroek News, IMEX Inc is hosting a public stakeholder engagement on Tuesday, February 7 on behalf of Schlumberger “regarding Radioactive Source Storage and Calibration Operations”.
