Wajmer Nicole Fisheries Feb. 23, Dear Mr. Ahmed, Protection Biologist 2018/ EM The Fisheries Act requires that projects avoid causing serious harm Fisheries and to fish unless authorized by the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans Oceans Canada Canada. This applies to work being conducted in or near waterbodies that support fish that are part of, or that support a commercial, recreational or Aboriginal fishery. Following the measures to avoid harm will help you comply with the Act. We request that you visit our website at www.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/pnw- ppe/index-eng.html and undertake a Self-Assessment to determine if DFO needs to review your project. If your project IS NOT in one of the listed waterbody types, and its activities ARE NOT listed, nor does it meet the associated criteria (if applicable), you may submit a Request for Review to DFO before proceeding further. If you are UNSURE about whether your project requires DFO review, you can seek support from a qualified environmental professional familiar with measures to avoid impacts to fish and fish habitat (www.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/pnw-ppe/env-pro-eng.html).

Presently, the most applied methodology to dispose of solid waste is landfilling. However, these landfill sites, over time release a significant quantity of leachate, which can pose serious environmental issues, including contamination of water resources. There exist many physicochemical and biological landfill leachate treatment schemes with varying degrees of success. With an increasing focus on sustainability, there has been a demand for developing eco-friendly, green treatment schemes for landfill leachates with viable resource recovery and minimum environmental footprints.

  • 2 New Artificial Soccer Turfs Could Be on Way for Vaughan
    2 new artificial soccer turfs could be on way for Vaughan Feb 11, 2015 | Vote 0 0 2 new artificial soccer turfs could be on way for Vaughan Vaughan Citizen By Adam Martin-Robbins A capacity crowd packed the council chamber at city hall Monday night. And the vast majority of them were players, coaches and parents from the Vaughan Soccer Club who came for one very specific reason. They were there to let the city’s budget committee know they want two artificial turf soccer fields, not just one, built at North Maple Regional Park and they want work to begin on both this year. “Approving the first phase, with the two turf fields and walking trail, is a long awaited start for this community,” Lucille Abate, past president of the York Region Soccer Association, said. “We stand before you this evening, filling your stands, to urge the city to expedite this process as soon as possible. This park will provide the core services for over 70,000 residents who live in north-east Vaughan.” Abate noted the soccer club has agreed to contribute $150,000 toward the project, which expected to cost about $5.4 million and take 15 to 18 months to complete. A representative of Vaughan C.A.R.E.S (Committee of Associations to Restore Environmental Safety) also spoke in favour of the project. City staff, who have been struggling to get the property tax increase down to at least 3 per cent as directed by council, considered going ahead with one field instead of two this year.
