We are strongly opposed to this amendment as a category 3 risk to the environment poses a threat to not only the close by tributary to the Saugeen river but our personal drinking water and wells.
I object to any water taking at the Redford Walker Pit 381769 Cons 4 NDR West Grey. Ministry reference number 025-0587
As a neighbouring resident within 120 m of the subject property I feel notification for an amendment of this magnitude should be required. No notification was given.

This is a TERRIBLE IDEA!!! We need to protect our Saugeen River; the families who live along the river; and the tourists who come and enjoy the river! We need to take care of our river for future generations!

Walker Pit's application to take water.must not be approved.
The danger of this use of water for washing gravel 24 hours / 365 days a year for 10 years endangers the water table and the quality of the water in the Saugeen River.and the Styx River.

That this category 3 permit is in consideration is an absolute disgrace. In no world should this permit be granted. If you haven't noticed, category 3 entails:
"Category 3: water takings are anticipated to have the highest potential of causing unacceptable environmental impact or interference"

It is obvious that this application is completely driven by financial gain and has no interest in the environmental/ecological impact imposed

I strongly oppose the proposal to extract water from the local pond for external use. This action poses serious ecological, environmental, and community risks.

I strongly reject accepting this application. We should not be allowing corporate interests to access our water for their own profit. Water is a common resource and should not be owned or used for private interests and with climate change we have to start seriously conserving our water.

Allowing this amendment, permit to take water, to Walker Aggregates is completely unacceptable. The loss of habitat for species in the area will be catastrophic to the whole ecosystem there. Permitting this action, and the resulting deleterious effects, is not worth the risk.
Absolutely not a good idea. Please start getting serious about this area and realize the damage that this is going to do in this area. This was supposed to be to be a beautiful area to live and this would and could cause damage to wells and the river.

The Walker Pit is applying to take water. Please, please, please say no to this application.
This is an amendment to the license so the Walker Pit people are not even required to notify the property owners who will be impacted.

I oppose to this proposal is for a new Permit to Take Water for Walker Aggregates Inc because its very high potential of causing an unacceptable environmental impact.
I belong to a canoe club that frequently has trips on the Saugeen River. I have come to enjoy the beauty and richness of the water ways and my hope is that those who have the power will help it to remain the way it is for ourselves and for our grandchildren.
