2- Regulation Changes (for water taking activities governed by the Ontario Water Resources Act):
a - Streamlining permissions for water takings for construction site dewatering activities and foundation drain

I feel that it is important that study MUST be done to fully understand the impact of water taking on each individual site.

I believe that public consultation and input MUST continue to be part of the granting of water taking permits.

I believe that there is great value in Conservation Authorities and that the Conservation Authorities MUST be restored as stakeholders in the consideration and granting of permissions for water taking in any area.
