Here is the approach procedure and the MVA chart. When cleared for the approach the flight was in a 7,800' MVA sector. But, as they progressed on the DME arc to the intermediate fix BRKET, they entered an 8,700' MVA sector. That violates any ATC standard or policy of which I am aware. Further, the approach doesn't exist below 10,000' along the DME arc used.
