The previous EA study was completed in February 2008 to assess long-term water supply requirements for Clearview based on forecasted growth. The original EA encompassed numerous communities in Clearview; however, this Addendum focuses on the community of Stayner only and has been triggered by recent investigations, which have found a viable groundwater source north east of Stayner. The Study Area includes the southern portion of an agricultural property, located at 1585 Klondike Park Road, at the northeast corner of Klondike Park Road and Sunnidale Concession 12 Road (Site), and the existing rights-of-way (ROW) along Sunnidale Concession 12 Road west from 1585 Klondike Park Road to County Road 7, south on County Road 7 to Nottawasaga 27/28 Sideroad (County Road 96), and west on Nottawasaga 27/28 (County Road 96) to the Clearview Township Public Works building (see map).
