My concerns regarding this application are numerous.
Will the de-watering cause settling of the ground or sinkholes?
How deep are the wells going to be?
What steps will be taken to reduce equipment noise to beach goers and surrounding residents?

I am totally NOT in favor of this permit of taking of water by CCV in Port Elgin.
There are so many reasons why this is a bad idea but most importantly my concern is the water table.

I want to know what regulations will be in place to protect the surrounding area and residential properties? Where will the water be pumped to? What protections will be in place to ensure water resources, Lake Huron, under water rivers leading to Lake Huron, are protected and used sustainably ?

This is an outrageous overstep of the environmental safeguards and stewardship fir the Port Elgin Beach and the surrounding properties. No environmental impact study has been done by the proponents. The area has many underground streams and aquafirs.

I am opposed as this will affect the water table in Lake Huron, could negatively affect harbour water and this harbour with resident and transient boaters is part of the tourist attraction.
There may be dangerous consequences for the fish habitat, and variety of water birds.

Our concern by the CCV investors to dewater up to 4 million litres per day for possibly 3 yrs. is alarming. What will this do to the water table of Lake Huron and where will this water be pumped to?

I am very concerned about the water disposal infrastructure. In our area, we see a large accumulation of snow and therefore the melt off in the spring can have significant negative impact.

What is happening to our beautiful port Elgin beach ???? This is wrong ! Environmentally and morally .To allow questionable developers to destroy and manipulate the water tables at this magnificent beach area is unconscionable !
This is absolutely ridiculous. This proposal has been a shock and a complete surprise to the community. That is a lot of water they want to remove. Where is it going ? Don’t they realize it’s beside a lake . Duh. Not to mention the area is full of underground springs.

Not in favour of this. Sucking up to 1M litres per day, where will it be discharged? What will the effects be on surrounding properties, standpoint? The noise of pumps may be a problem? What happens after 3 years?
Very upsetting to even think this would be the plan. Where do they plan to redirect this water? Not only is this upsetting the residents of Port Elgin but how will this hurt our natural habitat?

Hello. I am a seasonal boater in the port Elgin harbour. I am very concerned with this proposal to extract water from the lake for the construction of the CCV.

How will this affect the environment.
This seems very waistful considering we are supposed to be protecting water sources etc. I guess the almighty dollar is more important??
The proper environmental assessments have not been done for this project. The proposed location is on sandy beach, a floodplain, which has been used as a parking lot for decades. There will be petrochemical residues, undoubtedly, in the water pumped out. Where will that water be taken?
