Effets de la consultation

Comments relevant to the water taking proposal were considered as part of the review of the application. The main concerns raised were regarding the large volume of water taking requested, potential adverse impacts to private water supply wells in the area, and questions related to the discharge of the water.

A comprehensive technical review was completed, and multiple conditions were included in the Permit to monitor and mitigate any potential negative impacts of the taking including conditions 3.3 to 3.6, and 4.2 to 4.6. The Qualified Person demonstrated that under the revised quarry extraction scenario, the depth of the quarry will remain at or above the contact between the Bobcaygeon Formation and the Gull River Formation (i.e., no extraction of the Gull River Formation will take place), and no extraction will take place west/southwest of existing borehole DDH04-01 on the South Quarry property. The depth and aerial limitation for extraction will reduce the potential impacts to private wells to the south, southwest and west of the South Quarry. In addition, a groundwater monitoring plan, surface water monitoring plan and a complaint response program will be implemented as described in conditions 4.2 to 4.4 of the Permit.

The Permit Holder is required to obtain an Environmental Compliance Approval which regulates the discharge of water from this water taking. Discharge of the water is not within the scope of Permit to Take Water.

Start the process to appeal

If you’re an Ontario resident, you can start the process to appeal this instrument decision.

First, you’ll need to seek leave (i.e. get permission) from the relevant appellate body to appeal the decision.

If the appellate body grants leave, the appeal itself will follow.

Seek leave to appeal

To seek leave to appeal, you need to do these three things:

  1. prepare your application
  2. provide notice to the minister
  3. mail your application to three parties

1. Prepare your application

You’ll need to prepare an application. You may wish to include the following things in your application:

    • the ERO number and ministry reference number (located on this page)
    • a statement about whether you are a resident in Ontario
    • your interest in the decision, and any facts you want taken into account in deciding whether you have an interest in the decision
    • the parts of the instrument that you’re challenging

What is considered

The appeal body will consider the following two questions in deciding whether to grant you leave to appeal:

  1. is there is good reason to believe that no reasonable person, with respect to the relevant law and to any government policies developed to guide decisions of that kind, could have made the decision?
  2. could the decision you wish to appeal result in significant harm to the environment?

2. Provide your notice

You’ll need to provide notice to the Minister of the Environment, Conservation and Parks that you’re seeking leave to appeal.

In your notice, please include a brief description of the:
