Détails de la proposition
Application has been made by Aaroc Aggregates Ltd. to amend the current site plan to allow an established pit to lower the depth of extraction to below the water table. Following extraction and rehabilitation, this proposal will result in the creation of a pond and wetland area measuring approximately 10.1 hectares. The remainder of the site will be rehabilitated to agriculture.

Additionally, this application has been forwarded to the Municipality of Thames Centre, County of Middlesex, Upper Thames Conservation Authority, Ministry of Environment, Conservation & Parks and the Ministry of Agriculture, Food & Rural Affairs for comment.
Other Information
Aaroc Aggregates Ltd. currently operates the adjacent site under the authority of licence No. 2204 under the ARA licences No. 2204 and 2281 are operationally linked and consequently, a concurrent proposal on licence No. 2204 is also proposed.
In total, 63.35 hectares are currently licensed to Aaroc Aggregates Ltd. and if approved, these 2 proposals will result in the creation of a pond and wetland area measuring approximately 22.4 hectares.
