It was brought to my attention by a ratepayer that there is an application in the Township of Laurentian Valley, however the ERO notice regarding https://ero.ontario.ca/notice/019-4124 erroneously states that it is in Portland Ontario when in fact it is proposed for a site in the Township of Laurentian Valley ON, as indicated further on in the excerpt from the notice provided below.

"Proposal summary
This proposal is for the issuance of an Environmental Compliance Approval for MacGregor Concrete Products (Beachburg) Limited for a hauled sewage disposal site in Portland, Ontario.

I am the Township Planner for the Township of Laurentian Valley and do not appear to have received information directly on this file. I would advise that there are provisions in the Township of Laurentian Valley's Comprehensive Zoning By-law 08-04-391 that would apply that need to be considered for this application. Section 3.27 (d) states as follows:

"(d) Hauled Sewage Disposal Site
No disposal of hauled sewage on land shall be permitted unless the disposal site has been approved by the Ministry of the Environment and no disposal site shall be located within:

(i) Two hundred (200) metres of any dwelling on another lot;

(ii) Seven hundred fifty (750) metres of any subdivision, cluster of residential development or land zoned for residential development;

(iii) One hundred fifty (150) metres of any encased well;

(iv) Seventy-five (75) metres of any well with a minimum casing depth of six (6.0) metres.

(v) One hundred and eighty (180) metres of any surface water;

(vi) Thirty (30) metres of the right-of-way of any low volume road;

(vii) Ninety (90) metres of the right-of-way of any road;

(viii) Sixty (60) metres of any land used for livestock pasturing;"

It would be appreciated if someone reviewing the file would contact me to discuss and to confirm that the requirements of the Township Zoning By-law have been demonstrated to have been met with the proposed site and also to address the incorrect location reference in the title.
