Source Energy Services actively mitigates noise pollution at our Peace River mine by leveraging our years of mining and production expertise to manage the site.
As mining operations continue the equipment will move deeper into the pit, and less on the skyline where sound can travel. Please note that from time to time there will be some equipment working on the skyline as we complete reclamation work on property boundaries.
Equipment back-up alarms are required by Occupational Health and Safety and as such we can not turn off back-up alarms on our heavy equipment. We have and will continue to try various types of alarms that minimize the noise impact on our neighbours.
In addition, Source has enclosed the gensets on site in a building to reduce their noise.
