Air Permit for Aggregate Crushing Plant - 79 Fenmar Drive, Toronto
Official title: Sanscon Construction Ltd. - Environmental Compliance Approval (air)
Sanscon Construction wants approval to operate an aggregate crushing plant in northwest Toronto. The facility would emit nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, crystalline silica, sulphur dioxide, and carbon monoxide from crushers, screeners, diesel engines, and trucks.
Why This Matters
Live or work near Fenmar Drive in northwest Toronto? This plant would release dust and diesel exhaust into your air. Crystalline silica is a known health hazard. Nearby residents may want to weigh in on whether this belongs in their neighbourhood.
What Could Change
If approved, Sanscon could operate crushers, screeners, and diesel equipment at this Toronto site. The permit would set limits on emissions including particulate matter and silica dust. Conditions may require dust control measures.
Key Issues
