Notice of Determination for the Sand and Gravel Permit - Fond du Lac Airport Resurfacing Project

August 17, 2020 - Indigenous Services Canada has determined that the proposed Sand and Gravel Permit - Fond du Lac Airport Resurfacing Project is not likely to cause significant adverse environmental effects.

The determination was based on the following factors:
  - by Band Council Resolution and application for permit, Fond Du Lac First Nation requested that Indigenous Services Canada issue a Sand & Gravel permit to the Ministry of Highways and Infrasturcture for 9,000 tonnes
  -Fond du Lac First Nation will receive resource revenue which benefits the First Nation and its membership
  -no public comments were received concerning the project
  -mitigation measures outlined in operation and restoration plan

Implementation of mitigation measures is required for the project to address:
  -fuel storage and machinery refueling practices
 - species surveys before clearing as specified in ORP
 - leveling and restoration of exhausted areas

Indigenous Services Canada is satisfied that the carrying out of the project is not likely to cause significant adverse environmental effects.
