Decision details
A decision has been made to issue the licence. The licence was issued on June 7, 2019.
Effects of consultation
One comment was received in response to the Environmental Registry notice. This comment referenced their submission/comments to a prior application for this same location by the same proponent that had been withdrawn but did not indicate any new concerns. Those previous comments/concerns were addressed by explaining existing regulations and guidelines with the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry and other ministries, as well as being addressed through the re-zoning of the site. There are several other comments that were misdirected and have no bearing for the approval of the licence.
Comments received by a landowner within 120m of the site from the Aggregate Resource Act notification process were incorporated into the site plan.
The comments received during the Aggregate Resource Act notification process by various agencies (Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry, Ministry of Transportation, Hydro One and the Township of Baldwin) have provided input for the final site plans, protection of whip-poor-will habitat, ensured access to the site, and brought about a zoning change required for the issuance of the licence.
There are no outstanding comments from the public participation process of this licence application. A decision has been made to proceed with the approval of this proposal.
