Company to submit revised DEIA report.

KUALA LUMPUR: Tenaga Nasional Bhd’s (TNB) Lahad Datu Energy Sdn Bhd will submit a revised detailed environment impact assessment (DEIA) report to the Department of Environment (DOE) for its proposed 300-megawatt coal-fired power plant in Sinakut, Lahad Datu, Sabah.

In a statement yesterday, TNB said Lahad Datu Energy together with its consultants were reviewing areas of concern highlighted by the DOE when it rejected the environment assessment report submitted earlier.

The DOE had asked for a more detailed report on mitigation measures for the proposed plant and an EIA for transmission route, which is an additional requirement not required in the original terms of reference. – Bernama

Lahad Datu Energy will seek clarification on the level of detailed information required by DOE before submitting its revised DEIA report.
