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Ontario Regulation 115/20 was revoked on June 15, 2020, however, we are posting this decision as a bulletin as because the proposal was posted on April 28, 2020 while Ontario Regulation 115/20 was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 # 019-1706 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.

Effects of consultation
The comment received identified concern with the posting under Ontario Regulation 115/20. The comment was considered, and information on why consultation isn't required is provided in the above section.
The comments received from the Township of Ering were reviewed and considered and the primary recommendation with respect to the requested addition of conditions in the Permit to Take Water (PTTW) with contingency measures for the mitigation of groundwater contamination are not relevant to the PTTW, which is intended to regulate the taking of water, not the quality.
Third parties are not able to apply for leave to appeal in respect of proposals which are posted while Ontario Regulation 115/20 is in effect. On April 1, 2020, the Ontario Government made a temporary regulation to respond to the COVID-19 outbreak which exempts all proposals from the requirement to post notices on the ERO. Leave to appeal may only be sought in respect of instruments that are required to be posted to the ERO.
Appeal information
Appeals are not allowed. This instrument type cannot be appealed.
