Liquid Soil Processing Facility Permit - Port Perry

Official title: SOUTHVIEW HYDROVAC INC. - Environmental Compliance Approval (waste)

Open Regulations & Permits Environment & Climate
A company wants to open a facility that processes liquid soil slurry from hydrovac trucks and drilling operations. The site near Port Perry would handle up to 300 cubic metres daily, separating water from soil. Operations would run Monday to Saturday, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Why This Matters

Live near Port Perry? This facility would be on North Port Road in Scugog Township. Trucks carrying liquid soil would come and go six days a week. If you're a nearby resident, you might want to weigh in on noise, traffic, or environmental concerns.

What Could Change

If approved, Southview Hydrovac could operate a 3.7-hectare soil processing facility. The permit would set limits on daily volumes, operating hours, and environmental controls. Conditions may require dust suppression, water management, and monitoring.

Key Issues

  • Should this liquid soil processing facility be approved at this location?
  • What environmental controls should be required for the operation?
  • Are the proposed operating hours and volumes appropriate for this area?
