Le présent avis est fourni à titre d’information seulement. Il n’existe aucune obligation de mener une consultation sur le Registre environnemental de l’Ontario à propos de cette initiative. Pour en savoir davantage sur le processus de consultation et les types d’avis publiés sur le registre.
Pourquoi une consultation n’est pas nécessaire
On April 1, 2020, the Ontario Government made a temporary regulation to respond to the COVID-19 outbreak. Ontario Regulation 115/20 exempted all proposals for policies, acts, regulations and instruments from posting requirements under the EBR.
Ontario Regulation 115/20 was revoked on June 15, 2020, however, we are posting this decision as a bulletin as because the proposal was posted on April 28, 2020 while Ontario Regulation 115/20 was in effect.
Although consultation was not required, the ministry did consulted with the public on this proposal by posting ERO# 019-1710 for public comment from April 28, 2020 - May 28, 2020. To ensure transparency, the ministry is providing details of its decision and the effects of consultation on decision-making in this notice.
