Reports

A Transportation Environmental Study Report (TESR) has been prepared for the project and is available for a 30-day public review period from February 24, 2021 to March 25, 2021.

Interested persons are encouraged to review the TESR and provide comments to the project team by March 25, 2021. Project team contact information is available on the Contact Information page.

In addition, a request may be made to the Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks for an order requiring a higher level of study (i.e., requiring an individual/comprehensive EA approval before being able to proceed), or that conditions be imposed (e.g., require further studies), only on the grounds that the requested order may prevent, mitigate or remedy adverse impacts on constitutionally protected Aboriginal and treaty rights. Requests on other grounds will not be considered. Requests should include the requester contact information and full name for the ministry. Requests should specify what kind of order is being requested (request for additional conditions or a request for an individual/comprehensive EA), how an order may prevent, mitigate or remedy those potential adverse impacts, and any information in support of the statements in the request. This will ensure that the Ministry is able to efficiently begin reviewing the request.

The request should be sent in writing or by email to:

Minister of the Environment, Conservation and Parks
Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks
777 Bay Street, 5th. Floor
Toronto, ON  M7A 2J3
e-mail: minister.mecp@ontario.ca

Director, Environmental Assessment Branch
