Soil Recycling Facility Expansion - 550 Bowes Road, Vaughan
Official title: Intelligent Soil Recycling Inc. - Environmental Compliance Approval (waste)
A soil recycling company in Vaughan wants to upgrade its equipment to process more material. The facility already handles up to 234,000 tonnes of soil per year, separating sand and gravel for reuse. This amendment would add new processing equipment and dry soil washing capabilities.
Why This Matters
Live or work near Bowes Road in Vaughan? This facility already operates 24 hours a day. More processing capacity could mean more truck traffic and noise. If you're concerned about dust or activity levels, now's the time to comment.
What Could Change
If approved, the company could install new equipment for higher throughput and dry soil washing. The facility's operating hours and annual tonnage limits would remain the same, but processing methods would change.
Key Issues
- Should the facility be allowed to add new processing equipment for higher throughput?
- Should dry soil washing capabilities be permitted at this location?
