I do not agree wit this proposal as The Miller pit is located on a Highly Vulnerable Aquifer within the Oak Ridges Moraine, and bringing in fill from the GTA provides a significant risk to our water.
Pits are by definition temporary and are to be returned to their natural state – this application would turn the Miller Site into an industrial site indefinitely, and one sitting on top of a highly vulnerable aquifer in the Oak Ridges Moraine which UMALA believes is illegal under the ORMCP.
As part of this application, the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry is handing over the reins of responsibility to the Township of Uxbridge to manage – this should not be allowed nor does the Township have the personnel or experience to effectively oversee an operation like this.
