Bulletin summary

An Environmental Compliance Approval with Limited Operational Flexibility (Air) has been issued to R. W. Tomlinson Limited, which is a facility used for quarrying and processing of aggregate materials located in the Town of Bruce Mines, Ontario.

Why consultation isn't required

On April 1, 2020, the Ontario Government made a temporary regulation to respond to the COVID-19 outbreak. Ontario Regulation 115/20 exempted all proposals for policies, acts, regulations and instruments from posting requirements under the EBR.

Ontario Regulation 115/20 was revoked on June 15, 2020, however, we are posting this decision as a bulletin as because the proposal was posted on April 14, 2020 while Ontario Regulation 115/20 was in effect.

Although consultation was not required, the ministry did consulted with the public on this proposal by posting ERO# 019-1663 for public comment from April 20 - June 04, 2020. To ensure transparency, the ministry is providing details of its decision and the effects of consultation on decision-making in this notice.

Instrument decision details

An Environmental Compliance Approval with Limited Operational Flexibility (Air) has been issued to R.W. Tomlinson Limited, which replaces all the current Environmental Compliance Approvals for Air at this facility, and includes the addition of new, or historically unapproved, sources for all emissions from R. W. Tomlinson Limited, a facility used for quarrying and processing of aggregate materials located in the Town of Bruce Mines, Ontario.

The approval includes all sources at the facility, including primary, secondary and tertiary crushing and screening equipment.

Emissions to the air from this facility include suspended particulate matter and crystalline silica.

The Environmental Compliance Approval with Limited Operational Flexibility (Air), when issued, permits modifications to the facility subject to limits on operational flexibility that include a production limit for the facility to be specified on the Environmental Compliance Approval with Limited Operational Flexibility (Air).

The limited operational flexibility conditions have an expiry date. The company will be required to make an application for amendment at that time to renew these conditions.
