The potential harm to fish populations caused by pollution and alterations in water quality stemming from the proposed Regenerative Recycling Facility poses a significant threat to the Sydenham River ecosystem. Such adverse effects not only endanger the viability of recreational and commercial fishing activities but also jeopardize the survival of Species at Risk, including mussels, fish, snakes, and turtles. Notably, the Sydenham River boasts an exceptional diversity of aquatic life, with some species endemic to this region and not found elsewhere in Canada, underscoring the urgent need to protect its unique biodiversity.
