How to appealClick to Expand Accordion

Start the process to appeal

If you’re an Ontario resident, you can start the process to appeal this instrument decision.

First, you’ll need to seek leave (i.e. get permission) from the relevant appellate body to appeal the decision.

If the appellate body grants leave, the appeal itself will follow.

Seek leave to appeal

To seek leave to appeal, you need to do these three things:

  1. prepare your application
  2. provide notice to the minister
  3. mail your application to three parties

1. Prepare your application

You’ll need to prepare an application. You may wish to include the following things in your application:

  1. A document that includes:
    • your name, phone number, fax number (if any), and/or email address
    • the ERO number and ministry reference number (located on this page)
    • a statement about whether you are a resident in Ontario
    • your interest in the decision, and any facts you want taken into account in deciding whether you have an interest in the decision
    • the parts of the instrument that you’re challenging
    • whether the decision could result in significant harm to the environment
    • the reason(s) why you believe that no reasonable person – having regard to the relevant law and to any government policies developed to guide decisions of that kind – could have made the decision
    • the grounds (facts) you’ll be using to appeal
    • the outcome you’d like to see
  2. A copy of the instrument (approval, permit, order) that you you are seeking leave to appeal. You’ll find this in the decision notice on the Environmental Registry
  3. Copies of all supporting documents, facts and evidence that you’ll be using to appeal
What is considered

The appeal body will consider the following two questions in deciding whether to grant you leave to appeal:

  1. is there is good reason to believe that no reasonable person, with respect to the relevant law and to any government policies developed to guide decisions of that kind, could have made the decision?
  2. could the decision you wish to appeal result in significant harm to the environment?

2. Provide your notice

You’ll need to provide notice to the Minister of the Environment, Conservation and Parks that you’re seeking leave to appeal.

In your notice, please include a brief description of the:

  • decision that you wish to appeal
  • grounds for granting leave to appeal

You can provide notice by email at minister.mecp@ontario.ca or by mail at:

3. Mail your application

You’ll need to mail your application that you prepared in step #1 to each of these three parties:

  • appellate body
  • issuing authority (the ministry official who issued the instrument)
  • proponent (the company or individual to whom the instrument was issued)

Proposal details

Norris Construction Management Inc. is applying to amend the Environmental Compliance Approval No. 6469-ADXJVG for a waste disposal site, to allow for the processing of hydrovac slurry waste and dry soils including non-hazardous contaminated soils as a Class 1 Soil Management – Processing site.

The amendment requested is to remove Condition 3.9 that required a groundwater and surface water assessment if a unlined storage pond is used to store process waters from the hydrovac slurry soils separation, and to allow for the installation and operation of a closed loop process water treatment plant that will have no discharge to the ground or surface waters.

The daily maximum waste volumes for hydrovac slurry would be in three phases:

  • phase 1 allowing 300 cubic metres per day maximum
  • phase 2 allowing 600 cubic metres per day maximum
  • phase 3 allowing for 900 cubic metres per day maximum

Maximum storage volumes for hydrovac slurry separated soils will be 1,230 cubic metres for phase 1, 2,460 cubic metres for phase 2, and 3,690 cubic metres for phase 3. Water removed from hydrovac slurry will be reused within the treatment process.

The daily maximum volume of dry non-hazardous soils would be 800 tonnes, and a maximum storage volume of unprocessed soils of 2,500 tonnes. Dry soils would be blended with hydrovac slurry to separate soils to produce reusable stone, aggregates , sands and a fine soils filter cake. Soil materials would be tested to determine soil quality for reuse or disposal depending on tested soil quality. Testing and end use destinations (reuse for construction, beneficial reuse sites, or landfill) would follow the requirements of Ontario Regulation 406/19 and Excess Soil Standards.

This proposal requests to extend the operating hours from 7am to 7pm, Monday to Saturday. The current operating hours are 8am to 5 pm. This proposal also requests that the facility be allowed to receive waste delivered by hydrovac trucks on an emergency basis after hours as permitted by City of Ottawa Noise By-Law.

The waste management facility is located on a 1.75 hectare site at 200 Maple Creek Court in Ottawa, Ontario.

Waste received would be generated by residential, municipal, and industrial, commercial and institutional sources within a service area of Eastern Ontario.
