RE: Environmental Registry of Ontario (ERO# 019-5203) and Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks - O.Reg. 406/19 (EPA, R.S.O. 1990). Comments on the Proposed Implementation Pause of Excess Soil Requirements

1. Is the pause of the 2022 phase-in implementation going to impact the January 1, 2022 contract Registry exemption/grandfathering as well? Will this be delayed until January 1, 2023 and thus exempting projects from the Registry where signed contracts are in place before January 1, 2023?

I am opposed to this pause.
This regulation was already in effect so to pause seems strange especially when companies were in compliance. It is unfair to the companies that complied to have this pause. More time won’t accomplish anything further since enough time has already passed.
It is very disappointing to hear that implementation has been delayed until next year. Surely a less lengthy delay such as until June 2022 can be accommodated. Allowing the continued dumping of untested excavated material has a big potential to harm the environment.

I would like to voice my strong opposition to any pause in regards to the excess soil legislation.
It is up to this government to follow through with promises to clean up this soil dumping industry, not to allow individuals and companies to pollute the water and the land.
Dear Hon. Minister
I am writing to add my voice to wide-spread opposition from the Construction Industry, to O. Reg. 406/19. First though, thank you for deferring implementation while the government consults and makes appropriate amendments to the regulation.

Ontario’s Excess Soil Regulation (O. Reg. 406/19) was developed to recognize excess soil as a resource, to provide clear rules to support beneficial reuse of excess soil, and to help address issues of illegal dumping.
