As a neighbour to Dresden, I want to express my concerns about this proposal. In addition to increasing local risk to the environment, it needs to be stated that there needs to be long term solutions to waste disposal. Shipping waste from communities who cannot manage their refuse is not a long-term, nor environmentally sound, solution.
The Sydenham River possesses significant importance as a watershed, not solely for the local Dresden area but also for the Chenail Ecarte, known as the Syne locally, and Lake St. Clair River, subsequently flowing into the Great Lakes. It serves as a vital waterflow sustaining numerous communities and diverse species, including a substantial number that are endangered, threatened, or of special concern. Among its inhabitants are 34 species of mussels, acting as filter feeders and keeping these waters healthy, and 80 species of fish that depend on the waters of the Sydenham for feeding and reproduction.
I trust you will give this comment due consideration.
