Stormwater Permit for Industrial Facility on McAdoo's Lane, Kingston
Official title: 11675605 Canada Inc. - Environmental Compliance Approval (sewage)
American Iron and Metal wants to build stormwater management systems at their new industrial facility in Kingston. The system would include a dry pond, filters, and an oil separator to treat runoff before it flows into a roadside ditch on McAdoo's Lane.
Why This Matters
Live near McAdoo's Lane in Kingston? This facility will handle stormwater runoff from an industrial metal recycling site. The treatment systems are designed to filter out oil and grit before water reaches local drainage.
What Could Change
If approved, the company can proceed with stormwater infrastructure including a dry pond, Jellyfish Filter system, and oil/grit separator. The permit would set conditions for how runoff is treated before discharge.
Key Issues
- Are the proposed stormwater treatment systems adequate for an industrial metal facility?
- Will the discharge to the roadside ditch adequately protect local water quality?
