Potash One Inc.(TSX:KCL) reported that on February 28th, 2010, the Company submitted to the Saskatchewan Ministry of the Environment an environmental impact statement for its Legacy Potash Solution Mine in southern Saskatchewan.

The press release is quoted as saying:

The submission of the EIS culminates a 2-year effort in environmental baseline data collection, environmental design work, impact assessment analysis and also provides a comprehensive view of the Legacy Project’s expected impact on the local and regional environments. The EIS provides Project information and data upon which the MOE will consider granting environmental approval (“Environmental Approval”) for the Project. Approval from the Minister of Environment is required under the Saskatchewan Environmental Assessment Act before the proponent of a development (in this case, Potash One) may apply for and receive detailed construction and operating permits under other legislation.
