No. That determination does not prevent an environmental assessment; what it allows is a change in the project description so as to bypass the comprehensive study list, which is the guaranteed public participation mechanism. This wouldn't affect that determination, so the project description could still be changed by the minister.
What would remain, however, would be the guaranteed public participation, and that's essentially one of our key interests here. Whether or not the minister decides to simply look at one aspect of the project, it would still be subject to that public notification and participation.
