Détails de la décision
A Waste Transfer Site Environmental Compliance Approval has been issued to Shire Corporation to permit diversification of an existing biosolids storage site that has been operated by the City of Sarnia since the early 1960s. The site is located on Lot 11, Range 3 East of Scott Road, City of Sarnia in a highly industrialized area and surrounded by industrial sites.
The site was sold by the City of Sarnia to the Shire Corporation late in 2020 and the site continues to be used to store City of Sarnia biosolids (non-agricultural source material (NASM) Category 3(11)) under a contract between the two parties. Shire Corporation would like to expand the categories of non-agricultural source materials that can be stored at the site to include all non-agricultural source material Categories 1, 2 and 3 identified under the Nutrient Management Act (NMA).
The site has a total area of 12.88 ha. The site contains two lined lagoons with a total volume of 33,000 cubic meters between the two lagoons, that will continue to be used for NASM storage. The site will serve the Province of Ontario. Minor processing in the form of decanting will occur at the site. Decant will be sent to the City of Sarnia Wastewater Treatment Plant.
Non-agricultural source materials will be received at the site 24 hours per day 7 days per week. The maximum volume of non-agricultural source materials that will be received at the site daily is 1,500 cubic meters. The maximum volume of non-agricultural source material that will be stored at the site is 33,000 cubic meters. The maximum volume of non-agricultural source material that will be managed at the site annually is 66,000 cubic meters.
Final disposal of the non-agricultural source materials will be at farm sites approved for the use of non-agricultural source material as a nutrient source for crop production. All final disposal sites have non-agricultural source material plans approved by the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs (OMAFRA) under the Nutrient Management Act. Shire Corporation currently has 499 ha of land approved for use of non-agricultural source material as a nutrient source for crop production under non-agricultural source material plans approved by the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs.
The site will also be used for contingency storage by the City of Sarnia in the event that the City requires temporary storage for waste activated sludge, municipal biosolids or wastewater during facility repairs, upgrades or emergency situations. Any material (City material or non-agricultural source material) in a lagoon used for contingency storage by the City of Sarnia, will be sent back to the City for treatment and disposal at the wastewater treatment plant (WWTP), once the situation requiring contingency storage has been resolved by the City.

Appeal process for decisions published before June 1, 2021
If you’re an Ontario resident, you can start the process to appeal this instrument decision.
First, you’ll need to seek leave (i.e. get permission) from the relevant appellate body to appeal the decision.
If the appellate body grants leave, the appeal itself will follow.
Seek leave to appeal
To seek leave to appeal, you need to do these three things:
- prepare your application
- provide notice to the minister
- mail your application to three parties
1. Prepare your application
You’ll need to prepare an application. You may wish to include the following things in your application:
- A document that includes:

- your interest in the decision, and any facts you want taken into account in deciding whether you have an interest in the decision
- the parts of the instrument that you’re challenging

- A copy of the instrument (approval, permit, order) that you you are seeking leave to appeal. You’ll find this in the decision notice on the Environmental Registry

What is considered
The appeal body will consider the following two questions in deciding whether to grant you leave to appeal:
- is there is good reason to believe that no reasonable person, with respect to the relevant law and to any government policies developed to guide decisions of that kind, could have made the decision?
- could the decision you wish to appeal result in significant harm to the environment?

You’ll need to provide notice to the Minister of the Environment, Conservation and Parks that you’re seeking leave to appeal.
In your notice, please include a brief description of the:
- decision that you wish to appeal
