Permanent Asphalt and Concrete Plants at Dufferin Aggregates Pit - Clarington
Official title: Dufferin Aggregates, a Division of CRH Canada Group Inc. - Changes to the site plan for a pit or quarry
Dufferin Aggregates wants to add a permanent asphalt plant and concrete batching plant to their existing gravel pit near Clarington in Durham Region. The site already operates under a provincial aggregate licence. This change would allow them to process materials on-site rather than trucking them elsewhere.
Why This Matters
Live near this pit in Clarington? This could mean more industrial activity in your area. Asphalt and concrete plants can bring noise, dust, and truck traffic. If you're a nearby landowner, you've already been notified—but anyone can comment.
What Could Change
If approved, Dufferin Aggregates could operate permanent asphalt and concrete plants at this location. The site plan for licence No. 3195 would be amended. New conditions may be added for dust control, noise limits, or operating hours.
Key Issues
- Should permanent asphalt and concrete plants be permitted at this existing aggregate site?
- What conditions should apply to protect nearby residents and the environment?
