Task 7 ‒ Determine remediability
The Social Consequence Matrix provides guidance to identify Remediability. Remediability reflects the ease with which those impacted could be restored to a situation at least the same as/equivalent to their situation prior to the impact. Delaying action may affect the ability to remediate. A ‘Major’ level of Remediability means that it is very difficult or impossible to restore those affected to a situation equivalent to their situation prior to the impact.
The type of remedy provided should not create dependency on the site, which may be the case if monetary compensation is provided for a long period of time. Remediation that increases dependency on the site should be recorded with a higher rating.
