From The Australian:
The Brazilian government expects to reach an agreement by Friday with Samarco Minerao SA to settle a 20 billion-real ($A7 billion) lawsuit for damages in a deadly dam disaster, Brazil’s attorney general Lus Incio Adams says.
If that deal is signed by next week, Samarco, shut since the November 5 accident, could resume mining operations later this year, Adams said on Wednesday.
…Samarco’s initial efforts to write a long-term environmental recovery plan, which were rejected by IBAMA on January 28, will have to improve.
…Samarco plans to file a revised recovery plan later on Wednesday, the company said in an e-mailed response to questions.
