Détails de la décision
The ministry has approved an amendment to Environmental Compliance Approval (ECA) A582395 for the Golden Giant Mine Landfill of Newmont Canada Corporation, located in the Unorganized Township of Bomby, Ontario, approximately 40 km east of Marathon, Ontario.
ECA no. A582395 was amended to expand the landfill to allow for additional waste to be deposited at a maximum rate of 0.05 tonnes per day up to a total waste disposal volume of 50,600 m3 (including interim covers, but excluding final cover), which is between 40,000 m3 and 100,000 m3. This increase of 39,900 m3 to the currently approved total waste disposal volume is less than 40,000 m3. Therefore this expansion did not require an environmental assessment or an environmental screening process per O. Reg. 101/07. With the new total waste disposal volume of 50,600 m3 within the approved 1-ha footprint and based on closure design, the estimated remaining capacity is 6,040 m3. Hours of operation at the landfill are on Saturday from 10 AM to 11 AM.
More specifically, the amended ECA approval includes:
- an increase of the total disposal volume of the 1-ha landfill to 50,600 m3
- an update of the name on the ECA from Newmont Canada Limited to Newmont Canada Corporation
- modification to the submission date of the landfill groundwater monitoring reports
- continued acceptance of non-hazardous solid waste from the mine site, including non-hazardous filter cake sludge from the Newmont wastewater treatment plant as approved in ECA No.3943-99UQSM, per the operational specifications provided in the Design & Operations (D&O) Plan

Proposition initiale
Détails de la proposition
Description of instrument
The Golden Giant Mine Landfill of Newmont Canada Corporation is located in the Unorganized Township of Bomby, Ontario, approximately 40 km east of Marathon, Ontario. The landfill operates under environmental compliance approval (ECA) no. A582395 for a waste disposal site. The landfill site is approximately 20 ha, of which 1 ha is permitted for landfilling of non-hazardous solid mine / mill waste to a maximum approved capacity of 10,700 m3. The 1-halandfill comprises two areas: an inactive portion of 0.5 ha which is covered by a layer of crushed quarry rock and an active portion of 0.5 ha where waste continues to be deposited. Per the 2017 topographical survey, the current total volume of waste deposited in the landfill is 44,500 m3.
This proposal is to amend ECA no. A582395 to expand the landfill to allow for additional waste to be deposited at a maximum rate of 0.05 tonnes per day up to a total waste disposal volume of 50,600 m3(including interim covers, but excluding final cover), which is between 40,000 m3 and 100,000 m3. This increase of 39,900 m3 to the currently approved total waste disposal volume is less than 40,000 m3. Therefore this expansion does not require an environmental assessment or an environmental screening process per O. Reg. 101/07. With the new total waste disposal volume of 50,600 m3 within the approved 1-ha footprint and based on closure design, the estimated remaining capacity is 6,040 m3. Hours of operation at the landfill are on Saturday from 10 AM to 11 AM.
The purpose of this amendment to expand the landfill is to:
- increase the approved total disposal volume of the 1-ha landfill to 50,600m3
- update the name on the current ECA from Newmont Canada Limited to Newmont Canada Corporation
- modify the submission date of the landfill groundwater monitoring reports from 31 March to 1 June to make it consistent with Newmont’s due date of 1 June for submissions of mine site reports to the MNDM
- continue accepting non-hazardous solid waste from the mine site, including non-hazardous filter cake sludge from the Newmont wastewater treatment plant as approved in ECA No.3943-99UQSM, per the operational specifications provided in the D&O Plan
- close the landfill site once maximum capacity is reached per the design details provided in the D&O Plan.
