I object to the changes in how aggregate extraction permits are to be approved, given the effect pits and quarries can have on communities, neighbours, traffic, the environment, property values, and quality of life.

I am in support of maintaining regulations for stormwater management.
Improper management of wastewater and stormwater has the potential to cause serious impacts to human and environmental health.

Regarding: Our Sept 18, 2023 Request for Extension of Public Comment Periods for ERO Numbers 019-6928, 019-6853, 019-6963, and 019-6951 to a Minimum of 145 Days
Dear Hon. Andrea Khanjin, Minister of the Environment, Conservation and Parks,

I am writing in opposition of the ERO# 019-6928.
With recent and ongoing dealings with the aggregate industry, I see nothing but turmoil for communities, our ecosystems, drinking water and our health should such a proposal be allowed to pass.

1. Exploring changes to streamline the permit-by-rule framework, ERO number 019-6951

Dear Sirs,
I do not support the regulatory changes proposed. Surely, there are ways to improve efficiency without removing oversight and review prior to approval.

The government of Ontario MUST continue to allow public input regarding aggregate pits and water taking. To do otherwise would allow life- changing environmental issues to be put forward without public scrutiny and transparency.

As a resident of Ontario, I am opposed to this for these reasons:
• I insist that public consultation MUST be formally included in the application process
• I insist that Conservation Authorities MUST be involved in planning and oversight of stormwater management on these sites

1. Preparing a monitoring plan should not be solely left to the LEP. It should be reviewed and approved before being accepted for registration.

I strongly disagree with your proposal to reduce the regulations governing the management of stormwater in Ontario. For one thing, your proposal is based on a wrong assumption; that 'activities registered on the EASR must follow rules in regulation'.

I am very worried about the intentions of the ERO to cut corners and streamline important safe guards.
Which will let some companies and industries police themselves and I'm very much against that.
