Notice of Public Open House #1 for the Mayer Waste Facility Expansion Environmental Assessment Mayer Waste Management (781998 Ontario Inc.) has initiated an environmental assessment (EA) under the Environmental Assessment Act (EAA) 1990 to increase the total approved capacity at the Mayer Waste Disposal Site in Hawkesbury, Ontario by 650,000 m 3 . The proposed increase would not change the type or annual volume of waste currently accepted at the Site and will allow Mayer Waste Management to continue to receive solid non-hazardous domestic and industrial waste and provide cost-effective and environmentally sound waste disposal to local customers. The environmental assessment will assess the potential effects of the proposed landfill expansion on the environment and surrounding community to ensure it can be safely developed. The Process On December 19, 2024, the Minister of the Environment, Conservation and Parks approved the terms of reference for the Mayer Waste
Facility Expansion. A copy of the approved terms of reference is available at the project website: https://mayerexpansionea.com/project-reports. This study will be carried out in accordance with the requirements under the EAA. The results from the study will be documented in an environmental assessment report, which will be submitted to the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks for review. At that time, members of the public, Indigenous communities and other interested persons will be notified when and where the environmental assessment can be reviewed.
