Question? When they are pulling that much water that fast. Where does the water come from to
replace it ? There are 4 aquafirs that are recharged from the Frenches Hill and surrounding glacial
drift. What is effect on the other aquafirs and the private wells in them .

Hello why are you draining an aquifer that provides water for local residents to wash dirt. Would
it not be a safer idea to use lake water? Pls consider the future of this community.

We need to save our precious drinking water! We are poisoning our water and draining through
aquifers. The earth cannot keep up. What will our children drink? What will they do when there is
no water in the tap?
The process this company and others uses needs to be changed.

I believe it is an atrocity to allow this dufferin aggregates to use the cleanest water in the
world for their dirty business.
I cannot believe our township would put business above conservation and preservation of water. I
will not stand by and watch this happen.

Please protect this unique watershed that peovides is with the cleanest water measured in earth.
Not one drop of this clean water should be wasted, and each natural component in this watershed is
integral to the cleanliness of this water. Each blade of grass, soil, gravel, clay...

I am opposed to the taking of this water for the purpose of aggregate washing or otherwise. I am a
full-time resident of Tiny Township.

I am strongly opposed to this application. Where is the study showing that this will not have any
long term adverse affects on the water of this region?! The residents of Tiny township rely on
wells.

The water in our area should never have be used for commercial use. Please stop these companies
from using it strictly for profit. We are so very lucky to have this precious resource in our
area, we need to protect it for our future generations.

I am deeply concerned and even alarmed that we are allowing Dufferin Aggregates access to some of
the purest water on the planet. I feel that the Ministry should put protections in place and not
renew their license to take water from this aquifer!

I oppose this action. It is not justified to take millions of liters of drinking water to clean
gravel for industrial purposes. The ministry of the Environment and Climate Change should be
thinking of how this decision will affect seven generations to come.

Please do not allow this request for water from this aggregate company. The water in this area is
pure and special, as you have no doubt heard from other local people. I would like to see the area
(Waverley Uplands) protected under an expanded Green Belt.

The volume of water being removed from the ground is unsustainable. The public deserves a full
third party environmental assessment to determine the life cycle of the water being removed and its
impact on the surround communities, plants and animals.

Giving access and permission to use water for commercial production is irresponsible. Groundwater
is one of our most important sources of water for irrigation. It can also become easily
contaminated and is extremely susceptible to pollutants making it unfit for human use.

In my opinion, the drawing of millions of litres per day, of what is believed to be some of "the
purest water in the world" for use to wash aggregate, is nothing short of insanity.

I vigorously oppose the renewal of the permit to take water for use in the Teedon Pit and urge all
parties to consider life affirming decisions that support the protection of water and its purity
for future generations.
