Résumé de l’avis

An Environmental Compliance Approval (air & noise) with Limited Operational Flexibility has been granted to Maple Leaf Foods Inc., a meat preparation, cooking and packaging facility located in Brantford, Ontario.

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Ontario Regulation 115/20 was revoked on June 15, 2020, however, we are posting this decision as a bulletin because the proposal was posted on April 23, 2020 while Ontario Regulation 115/20 was in effect.

Although consultation was not required, the ministry did consult with the public on this proposal by posting ERO# 019-1687 for public comment from April 23, 2020 - June 7, 2020. To ensure transparency, the ministry is providing details of its decision and the effects of consultation on decision-making in this notice.

Instrument decision

An Environmental Compliance Approval (air & noise) with Limited Operational Flexibility has been granted to Maple Leaf Foods Inc., a meat preparation, cooking and packaging facility located in Brantford, Ontario.

The emissions sources from the manufacturing and associated processes that exhaust to the air include:

  • fryers
  • production line ovens
  • cooling tower
  • natural gas-fired combustion heating equipment
  • maintenance welding
  • all supporting equipment and processes at the site

This amendment is to renew the Limited Operational Flexibility and to reflect updates that have been made to the facility including the relocation and removal of various equipment.

Emissions to the air from this facility include:

  • nitrogen oxides
  • particulate matter
  • oil mist
  • hexavalent chromium
  • iron
  • noise

The Environmental Compliance Approval with Limited Operational Flexibility (air noise), when issued, permits modifications to the facility subject to limits on operational flexibility that include a production limit for the facility to be specified on the Environmental Compliance Approval with Limited Operational Flexibility (air & noise).

The limited operational flexibility conditions have an expiry date. The company will be required to make an application for amendment at that time to renew these conditions.
