Revoking environmental assessments for a landfill is preposterous. It will reduce recycling and put natural areas like the Oak Ridge Moraine at risk. Landfill sites also can involve wildlife conflicts, and animal testing of effluent. Please do not build another landfill.
I live within a mile of the proposed York1 dump site. I do not want the Environmental Assessment
requirements for the York1 waste disposal site not removed. As a property owner in Dresden I do not want the smell of garbage, trucks running through and or around the town taking over our quiet town.

I am against this proposal. There is NO good reason that a waste disposal site should be exempted from an Environmental Assessment. Laws exist for a reason and need to be followed to make sure a project does not create undue damage and cost to taxpayers and the environment.

I strongly oppose the removal of environmental assessment requirements for the York1 waste disposal site project through the proposed Protect Ontario by Unleashing our Economy Act, 2025.

This project is to close to our town,schools,rivers and streams. Who is going to pay for the increased wear and tear on our roads? There are plenty of landfills around Southwestern Ontario currently without having to reinstate a dormant landfill in our community.

I oppose as it is truly disturbing that an environmental assessment is being treated as a hindrance to waste removal, environmental laws protect the land and all who live on it.
I own and operate a retail gift store in downtown Dresden. Since purchasing the building in 2018 and establishing my small business, I have worked with the other local retailers and small businesses to help make Dresden an interesting attractive destination for tourism and shopping.

This shallow highly vulnerable aquifer has been damaged enough already.
We have a potential drinking water health hazard in this area already and it needs resolution before any further damage is done.

An environmental assessment for the York 1 Landfill needs to happen to ensure the environment is respected for the health and wellbeing of the community of wildlife and people.
I live on the Sydenham River down stream from Dresden Ont. My family and I fish, boat, canoe, swim & enjoy the river and all that it has to offer. Why would you even think about destroying that. Do all the test that need and should be done on this dump land in Dresden. Do just say not my problem.
