As a resident of Dresden, I am not in favour of a dump in our back yard! This area is a very diverse area with lots of endangered wildlife. A dump will poison the water and the soil!

You have got to be kidding!!! How can you remove the Environmental Assessment on the proposed dump just outside of Dresden? Do you know how close this is to the Sydenham River & Molly’s Creek? To the town of Dresden? To homes? To the school? This is ridiculous!

To say I am disheartened to hear that the extensive Environmental Assessment now does not have to be completed is putting it mildly. Maybe more dumps are needed in Ontario but this is NOT the spot for one.

Before you make decisions on our behalf about removing the environmental assessment requirement for York1 to build a dump in our backyard ask yourself “If someone wanted to build a garbage dump in your backyard how upset would you be?” Not to mention that the proposed site is less than 1km from the

This will affect our surrounding waterways. Also what ever lives in it. Increased traffic through our town. Please put it somewhere else not in someone’s back yard.
I am writing to formally oppose the proposed development of a landfill site within 1 kilometre of Dresden. While the need for effective waste management is acknowledged, the location of this landfill poses serious risks and concerns that must not be overlooked.

Good evening
This proposal is a terrible idea. I'm very disappointed in this government for trying to ram this project through. I'm very disappointed that the leadership would use the tariffs as an excuse. I'm very disappointed in myself for voting for them in the last election.
Thanks

Tariffs or no tariffs…the environmental impact of this waste disposal proposal remain the same. The possibility of watershed contamination is too high! Previous flooding in the area is a sure indication of contamination potential for the Sydenham River and surrounding wetlands.

Oh HECK no you shouldn't remove the environmental assessment needed! This is 1km from the town and the people fought so hard to get this implemented beause its LITERALLY 1km from their town, river, schools and homes!!!

Please do not do this Dresden. It is our home and a lovely community, no one here wants this, this will ruin our homes. Ontario is very large and you can put this away from peoples homes, you have no reason to destroy our town other then the greed and corruption of the Chatham Kent government.

I strongly oppose the proposal to remove environmental assessment requirements for the York1 Waste Disposal Site Project. Environmental assessments are a crucial safeguard that ensure projects are developed responsibly, with minimal harm to ecosystems and communities.

The placement of the dump is not appropriate or safe for the residents of Dresden. The fact that the Provincial Government is letting down Dresden and the entire Chatham-Kent community, to destroy our lands and waters is completely unacceptable.

I strongly oppose removing environmental assessments for the York1 waste disposal site. Waste facilities pose risks to groundwater, ecosystems, and nearby communities. These risks deserve full review and public transparency.

I am a concerned resident of Dresden. I have lived here most of my life and I love our town. I truly do not want to see this dump in our community. It is going to create havoc for our environment being so close to Molly's Creek and our river and streams.

I strongly oppose the removal of Environmental Assessment (EA) requirements for the York1 Waste Disposal Site project. Environmental assessments are a fundamental tool for protecting public health, ecosystems, and the long-term sustainability of our communities.

This property is within 1 km to 2 schools and yards away from Molly’s Creek that drains into the Sydenham river. The river runs through our town and into neighbouring communities, home to countless endangered species.

I am so disappointed in our government and environmental policies to see that this assessment can be so easily dismissed so Toronto’s garbage can move into small lesser important towns. I feel the voices of the small towns are muffled by progress and government.

This is UNACCEPTABLE from ministry of environment of ontario to back tracked on your decision to let this private corporation dump the garbage less than 1km from school, neighbourhood, river and creek.

Removing the environmental could have serious repercussions on the Sydenham river. Near this proposed dump site there is a stream that runs into the Sydenham. Garbage coming out of Toronto will almost surely have items that will have dangerous run off after rain.
