This section provides a checklist of the data that are collected within this chapter, and identifies where these fit in the step-by-step guide.
| Step 1. Collate background and baseline information (Chapter 2) |
 |
| Step 2. Collect rock samples for geochecmical testing |
|
| Step 3. Geochemical testing to determine acid-forming or neutralising capacity of rock samples |
|
| Step 4. Predict mine drainage chemistry |
|
| Step 5. Predict stream water chemistry |
|
| Step 6. Determine the potential ecological impact on the stream |
|
| Step 7. Consider whether impacts are acceptable |
 |
| Step 7a. If unacceptable, decide on treatment and management strategies to create acceptable stream water chemistry and thus achieve an acceptable level of impact |
|
| Step 8. If acceptable, design monitoring programmes |
