I.A. Fletcher Holdings Inc. - Environmental Compliance Approval (waste)

The proposal is for a new Environmental Compliance Approval for a composting facility at 310 Riverside Drive in Nanticoke, Ontario. The 10.1 hectare site is currently operating as a leaf and yard waste composting facility in accordance with Ontario Regulation 101/94 Recycling and Composting of Municipal Waste.

I.A. Fletcher Holdings Inc. (operating as Grand Disposal) is interested in expanding operations to leaf and yard waste and source-separated organic waste. This facility will receive, and process non-hazardous solid organic waste sourced within Ontario with a maximum daily receiving rate of 800 tonnes of waste and a maximum storage capacity of 10,935 tonnes of waste at one time. The majority of organics feedstock will be curbside source-separated organic waste. The facility may also accept industrial, commercial and institutional solid organic waste.

The final product will be non-agricultural source material or Category AA, A or B compost depending on the market and the quality of the final product. Incoming source-separated organic waste will be received in an enclosed building with an odour control system where pre-processing and mixing will occur. The active composting process will happen outdoors using a covered aerated static pile system, and screening and final product storage will be located outdoors.

Stormwater from the Site will be collected and directed to a stormwater pond. Receiving, processing and shipping may take place between 7:00 am to 7:00 pm, Monday to Friday.
