NEWS ByLisa Tallyn ltallyn@theifp.ca NEC endorses the Dufferin Acton Quarry expansion The Niagara Escarpment Commission has given its endorsement to the Dufferin Acton Quarry expansion. At its meeting Thursday the NEC en- dorsed the Niagara Escarpment Plan Amendment and Development Permit Application for the quarry expansion and supported a recommendation to advise the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry it doesn't object to approval of Dufferin's li- cence application. As there are outstanding objections to the applications it will be going to a joint board hearing so the NEC could not approve either the plan amendment or development per- mit application. Since 2009 when Dufferin filed the ap- plication for the expansion of the quarry the proposed extraction area has been cut in half from 99 hectares to 49.31 hectares. NEC Senior Strategic Advisor Nancy Mott said key considerations NEC staff had when evaluating the Dufferin application included natural heritage, endangered spe- cies, impacts on ground and surface water, cultural and visual impact, rehabilitation and future land uses and compatibility with existing uses. Mott said Dufferin's Adaptive Manage- ment Plan has specific targets set as indi- cators for potential environmental impact, and includes a water management and monitoring system and well monitoring and mitigation system. She said POWER and some members of the public still have concerns about the ex- pansion including traffic, noise and blast- ing, environmental impact and protection of the escarpment and Biosphere Reserve Continued on page 5
