The road dust and other fugitive emissions makes the west end a dirty stinky area and i grew up in Bayview. It's never stunk so much as now.
The particulates, and gases/dust in the air explains why there is so much cancer in this city.

Stop this cancer causing monstrosity!
It is shameful. We are human. The situation is made worse because half of us don't have doctors. I vote.

Hello. I live blocks from gate 4 entrance at the end of goulais avenue in Sault Ste. Marie. Iam appalled by this, the amount of pollution we already deal with is unacceptable. Black smoke. The smell of rotten eggs, graphite or whatever metal specs all

Dear MECP,
I provide these comments to the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP) in response to Algoma Steel’s request for an Environmental Compliance Approval (ECA) for emissions at its iron and steel manufacturing plant in Sault Ste Marie, Ontario.

The sault does not need anymore air or noise pollution. As a cancer survivor and a person with breathing problems and sleeping problems I fear this will add to my health issues. The guide lines are put out for a reason . To protect our people and our environment .

In 2024 I should not witness black and orange plumes of smoke bellowing from stacks - layers of black particulate covering everything in SSM. There is no excuse for this, it is an embarrassment- totally unacceptable for industry to be allowed to commit this for $$$$$.

I am submitting this article as an example of how this posting is being presented to the community by the local media. Unfortunately this was published only a few hours before the current deadline.

As a resident of Saul Ste Marie, ai have serious concerns about the environmental impact of this proposal. Huge percentages of benzo pyrene, benzene and sulphur dioxides will impact our city’s air quality immensely.

Please no more increases to Algoma steels pollution. It is difficult enough for the citizens to balance the significant adverse health effects at the plants present output, with a healthy life. How much cancer are we expected to welcome? How much black smoke are we expected to live under?
As a resident of the Sault, and better yet one who lives in close proximity to the plant, I hope these exceptions are denied. I already wake up every morning with a vehicle full of some type of particulate that I have to wash off every day.

There seems to be opportunities for massive exceedences of cacinogens Bezene and Benzo(a)pyrene over the already generous provincial standards during the 4 year transition period and throughout the applicant's entire site and uncontrollably extending into the community far beyond the applicant's sit

This is poorly written and it does not state what the exact changes are being proposed. All details should be included with nothing left out for transparency. Sault Ste. Marie residents deserve that as it affects our health and our environment.
The proposal notes that Algoma Steel Inc. is applying to transition its manufacturing process from integrated basic oxygen steelmaking to electric arc furnace (EAF) steelmaking.
