How is the Environmental Assessment (EA) process being regulated by the 3 levels of government?
At the end of Phase 1, the Ontario Ministry of the Environment indicated that its provincial EA process didn’t apply to this project. No formal decision has been made by the province of Quebec on whether the Quebec process applies or not. That decision will be made during Phase 2.The Federal EA screening process is being followed by the NCC. Where two or more processes indicate different levels of requirements, in order to achieve the same goal, the more stringent and rigorous requirements will be applied.
