This facility has been convicted by the EPA in the past - & the community has no guarantee that this proposal will be any safer. For this reason I would like to lodge my concern. (see extract of report Dec 14, 2017 in the Stoney Creek News below). Terrapure plant fined for emitting harmful gases The owner of the Taro industrial dump has been fined $145,000 for two incidents at its Imperial Street waste processing plant in Hamilton that emitted harmful gases to neighbouring businesses. Revolution Environmental Solutions Acquisition GP Inc.  known publicly as Terrapure Environmental  was convicted of three offences under the province’s Environmental Protection Act. The Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change said the first incident on Jan. 20 of last year occurred when the plant accepted a lugger bin of mixed hazardous wastes. Problems arose when workers mixed the bin with 31 other loads of hazardous waste received over the previous 10 months.
