The Moroccan Ministry of Equipment is presenting the first version of a decree regarding quarries, and has met with professional organisations to discuss it.
This is the first of some 20 decrees to come on the matter.
This version outlines that the Ministry of Equipment is the central authority regarding quarry operating declarations.
Matters such as the final configuration of the requirements specification as well as what will come of cooperatives and associations exploiting quarries without a tax identifier remain to be dealt with.
A public inquiry will systematically be undertaken for every quarry opening project requiring an impact assessment.
