This notice is for informational purposes only. There is no requirement to consult on this initiative on the Environmental Registry of Ontario. Learn more about the types of notices on the registry.
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Ontario Regulation 115/20 was revoked on June 15, 2020, however, we are posting this decision as a bulletin because the proposal was posted on April 7, 2020 while Ontario Regulation 115/20 was in effect.
Although consultation was not required, the ministry did consult with the public on this proposal by posting ERO# 019-1606 for public comment from April 7, 2020 to May 22, 2020. To ensure transparency, the ministry is providing details of its decision and the effects of consultation on decision-making in this notice.

We issued an amended Environmental Compliance Approval (air) with Limited Operational Flexibility to Peterson Spring of Canada Limited, a manufacturer of spring components and replacement parts such as metal rings and other wire form products, located in the Town of Kingsville, Ontario.
The air emission sources from the manufacturing and associated processes include coiling, stress release ovens, grinding, shot peening, cold and hot setting, chamfering, burnishing, cap assembly, damper spring assembly, and painting.
The approval includes addition of a dust collector, updating the shot peeners, grinders, adding an electric oven, decommissioning the paint spinner and changing the product used in the paint spray booth.
Emissions to the air from this facility include hydrotreated naphthenic oil, resin, carbon black, diarylide yellow aaot, diarylide yellow hr, and products of combustion such as nitrogen oxides.
The Environmental Compliance Approval with Limited Operational Flexibility (air) permits modifications to the facility subject to limits on operational flexibility that include a production limit for the facility specified on the Environmental Compliance Approval with Limited Operational Flexibility (air). The limited operational flexibility conditions have an expiry date. The company is required to make an application for amendment at that time to renew these conditions.
