I refer to the Memorandum of Understanding between the Department of Mines and Petroleum and the Office of the Environmental Protection Agency, and I ask -
(1) What is the formal process for ensuring that all environmental staff in the Department of Mines and Petroleum are operating with the same understanding of 'significant environmental impact'?
(2) Do the departments engage in cross-agency training?
