Public body

Agence Congolaise de l'Environnement (ACE)

The DRC's environmental agency. ITIE-RDC reports it present at artisanal copper-cobalt sites to collect cooperatives' contribution to the costs of rehabilitating artisanal exploitation zones under the mining regulations, and classes that presence as unauthorised but justified. This rests on that single report.
