Air Emissions Permit for Apotex Pharmaceutical Packaging - Weston Road, Toronto

Official title: Apotex Inc. - Environmental Compliance Approval (air)

Open Regulations & Permits Environment & Climate Health & Safety
Apotex Inc. wants to consolidate and update its air emissions permits for a pharmaceutical packaging facility on Weston Road in Toronto. The new permit would cover dust collectors, vacuum systems, air handling units, and exhaust fans. The main emission is particulate matter.

Why This Matters

Live or work near Weston Road and Highway 401 in Toronto? This facility's air emissions could affect your neighbourhood. The permit sets limits on particulate matter released into the air you breathe.

What Could Change

If approved, Apotex gets a single consolidated air permit replacing multiple existing approvals. The permit includes production limits and flexibility conditions that will expire, requiring future renewal applications.

Key Issues

  • Should the consolidated air emissions permit be approved for this pharmaceutical packaging facility?
  • Are the proposed limits on particulate matter emissions adequate to protect local air quality?
