Effets de la consultation

No comments were received in response to the Environmental Registry notice.

Two comments were received through the ARA consultation process. The Ministry of Northern Development, Mines, Natural Resources and Forestry requested further information and supplemental work be completed to assess the presence of Species at Risk and fish habitat on the site.

As of April 1, 2019, full operational responsibility for Species at Risk was transferred to the Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP). As such, outstanding comments related to Species at Risk were referred to MECP for resolution. Species at Risk were assessed by the applicant as part of the amendment request and identified potential habitat for Eastern Whip-poor-will within the proposed area of extraction. This habitat was registered with MECP under Section 23.14 of Ontario Regulation 242/08.

The Department of Fisheries and Oceans requested a self-assessment to evaluate the presence of and impact to fish habitat.

The proponents addressed all comments by providing additional information and revising the site plan. All concerns were addressed at the end of the process.
