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Ontario Regulation 115/20 was revoked on June 15, 2020, however, we are posting this decision as a bulletin because the proposal was posted on May 28, 2020 while Ontario Regulation 115/20 was in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 # 019-1816 for public comment from May 28, 2020 to July 12, 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
The amended sewage works include:
- decommissioning the existing West pond outlet structure
- installing a ditch inlet-style outlet in the East Pond
These amendments will result in removing the short circuiting of the sewage treatment process and re-establishing the full treatment potential of the pond and the intended hydraulic retention time, improving the discharge water quality by reducing total suspended solids in the discharge.
Comments received
No comments were received.
Effects of consultation
Since we did not receive any comment during the commenting period, there is no impact of comment on the approval.
Third parties are not able to apply for leave to appeal in respect of proposals which were posted while Ontario Regulation 115/20 was in effect between April 1, 2020 and June 14, 2020. Ontario Regulation 115/20 exempted all proposals for instruments from posting requirements under the EBR. Leave to appeal may only be sought in respect of instruments that are required to be posted to the ERO.
Appeals information
Appeals are not allowed. This instrument type cannot be appealed.
