I am writing to you in hope that this below the water table can be stopped. First of all Strada has never done a below water table blast so this is trial and error for them. This water table affects all the wells in a very large area.

The Strata for request for water is dangerous and damaging.
There is no water remediation plan to manage with all the heavy metals. This is very short term thinking and will leave an environmental disaster for generations to come.

Melancthon is my home. I was born here. Both my parents were born here and my grandparents and great grandparents. My 3rd great grandparents where the first settlers who arrived in Melancthon with Louis Horning in 1834.

It has come to our attention that Strada Aggregates has applied for a new water taking permit for January 1, 2026, in preparation for their proposed blasting quarry of 180 feet below the water table.

I am writing to officially declare my opposition to the application from Strada Aggregates to operate a quarry, blasting below the water table, in Melancthon Township.
This matters to me because of the following:

Why is this being allowed if it is considered to be a Category 3. Doesn’t make sense.
Category 3: water takings are anticipated to have the highest potential of causing unacceptable environmental impactor interference
The proposed water taking qualifies as a Category 3 permit.

Very bad for our water I live across the road and now i have to worry about my well going dry because they want to go past the water table we stopped them from doing it years ago and they want to keep going now.

I am against the quarry blast for limestone in Melancthon, this will put people lives at risk, with water/NO water, silica dust causing respiratory issues, vibrations to our homes, value of our homes, our families, our livestock, our well being, I’m sure you wouldn’t want this in your community, ris

Strada has not presented a case which justifies their existing pit, that has operated 20+ years without a wash plant, suddenly needing to extract 5,000,000 litres of water per day under a known high-risk classification for UNACCEPTABLE environmental impact!

Hello
As a member of the Mulmur community I'm seriously concerned about the proposed permit and it's impact to the water system with Dufferin County and beyond.
I deeply oppose this permit application and the irreversible environmental impact it would cause.
Sincerely
Concerned Resident

I am very concerned and experiencing a lot of angst and sleepless nights due to this application 025-1005 by Strada Aggregates to take an enormous amount of water to wash the aggregate and contaminants that are part of their proposed Below the Water Table BLAST quarry.

I would to understand what will happen with the water once it has been used. Will the water be tested, who will test the water, how often will it be tested and what are the remediation plans for the water?
This data that they are presenting is exactly the same that they are presenting for a below the water table quarry. This is total misinformation if its for washing stations. More Strada lies.
Also Strada is a sand and gravel pit so why are they applying for a washing station????

We can not afford to have our water table touched. My family lives within a few kilometres of the proposed quarry expansion and our water is already extremely fragile.

The proposed increase in water taking for the Strada quarry is an affront to all residents of our community. There is no guarantee that our water quality/quantity won't be affected and Strada doesn't seem to care.

This application should NOT be approved.
As I understand it, Category 3, which this application falls under, means that the water taking "...is anticipated to have the highest potential of causing unacceptable environmental impact or interference."

I strongly object to the Strada Blasting Quarry proposal and their application for water taking:
Although there are many reasons primarily for me it's the aquifer, the aquifer belongs to all of us and no one person or entity should be allowed to jeopardize its integrity, full stop!
