Proposal details

This proposal is for an amendment of Environmental Compliance Approval (ECA) No. 8197-6NYJXP for GFL Environmental Services Inc. for the operation of an ex-situ biological treatment facility for non-hazardous petroleum hydrocarbon and volatile organic compound impacted soils at 17335 Allaire Road, Moose Creek, Ontario.

This site operates a 3.1-hectare Waste Disposal Site, on a 9.0-hectares total site area. The GFL facility is located just east of Highway 138 and north of Allaire Road and is surrounded by farmland.

The site currently receives non-hazardous dry excess soils for on-site bioremediation or for temporary storage and transfer off-site. The site is currently permitted to receive an annual tonnage of 405,600 metric tons (MT) of excess soil, with an annualized daily average of 1,300 metric tons per day and never to exceed daily limit of 3,000 metric tons.

The proposed amendment seeks to increase the maximum annual amounts of Dry Soil that can be received at the site to 748,800 tonnes and subsequently the annualized daily average to 2,400 tonnes per day.

The service area for the facility will be the province of Ontario, the province of Quebec and the state of New York. Waste receipt/storage and waste processing hours will be twenty-four hours per day.
