Bulletin summary

We amended the Renewable Energy Approval No. 8541-9HSGG3 for the Grimsby Energy Incorporated anaerobic digester, located in the town of Grimsby, Regional Municipality of Niagara.

Why consultation isn't required

This is notice of the amendment to Renewable Energy Approval No. 8541-9HSGG3 for Grimsby Energy Incorporated, and the right to require a hearing in respect of this decision.

We consider this an administrative amendment and do not expect it to have any significant impact on the environment. Therefore, public consultation is not required.

Bulletin details

Upon review of the existing facility information, we determined that the operation is not primarily agricultural and digested output material cannot be considered agricultural source material. As such we amended the Renewable Energy Approval No. 8541-9HSGG3 for the Grimsby Energy Incorporated anaerobic digester.

This Class 3 anaerobic digestion facility, known as the Grimsby Energy Incorporated anaerobic digester, is located at 424 Sobie Road, Town of Grimsby, Region of Niagara.
