The full EA process needs to remain in place for this project. The landfill is within 1 km of a dense urban populated area (Town of Dresden) and will have significant enviromental impact on the urban area.
Further there is a natural waterway that traverses the site and empties directly into the Sydenham River.
These facts are know to the Ministry and the Province of Ontario
If landfill capacity is such a big concern in the Province today then Chatham Kent has a large landfill (The Ridge Landfill) that can easily be expanded to accept the quanties that will be allowed in this smaller site.
Further that can be done without causing any further negative impact to the enviroment or the residents of Dresden and surrounding areas.
