To whom it may concern
re:ero 019-7489
4702-CUKQSA
Having recieved the notice of application to take water submitted by Demill Holdings, I would like it known that I strongly disagree with approval of this application.

I have many concerns,
1). this proposal was posted Aug 15, 2023, but I did not receive notice from C.H. Demill until Sept 8th, 2023. Leaving me very little time to ask questions or investigate. This is unacceptable in today's standards of full disclosure.

We are definitely OPPOSED and very concerned about this proposal, especially as it is a Category 3 permit. Our water supply is currently adequate but we have neighbours close by that already do not have this essential resource.

We are vehemently opposed to this proposal. This is an unjustifiable amount of water to be removing and will profoundly affect the water-table in our area. 3,934,600 litres per day!! For 10 years!! Absolutely not a sustainable practice.

We would like to register our opposition to Melrose/ Longs Quarry's latest PTTW request.
As we live on the same block as these quarries, we are concerned about the effect it may have on the quantity and quality of our well water.
E.R.O. # 019 - 7489
Thank You
As a citizen of melrose, this proposal is extremely concerning. The Thought that a company will be able to remove water from the earth 24 hours a day, 365 days a year is troubling. The environmental ramifications of this project could be vast.

I am opposed to this proposal! That is an astronomical amount of water to be pumping out of the ground. I am an area resident, and I have neighbours who have had their wells run dry.

We have been involved in land development and home building for the past 40 years in this immediate area to the quarry. We are seriously concerned about the depth of this quarry drawing down the water levels. This area already struggles to have adequate household water supplies.

Is this related to expansion of the 401 highway? There needs to be transparency re why this is a Category 3 permit, whereas some of the individuals involved are stating it is just for the removal of pooled rain water. How is that handled now, then? Why is a new permit required?

As long time residents of Tyendinaga Township, we know the need for a safe, reliable source of water. Along with daily household cleaning, personal hygiene, and of course drinking, it is needed to water the garden that provides food for our family.

I am opposed to this proposal. My concern is the amount of water being pumped on the length of the term. Our water is precious, and not high quality to begin with.
