A preliminary report recommends against an environmental review of the project.
The request to have expansion plans at a Bamberton aggregate quarry face an environmental review appears to have plenty of support if the number of people who logged into an Environmental Assessment Office virtual information session is any indication.
The preliminary Environmental Assessment Office report, which considered the society’s concerns, said the dock extension and soil deposit site could not be reviewed, as they are substantially underway, and recommended against reviewing the quarry. Society spokeswoman Maureen Alexander, who has been pushing for the environmental review, said an environmental assessment is not only warranted but essential on the grounds of environmental risk that could harm a fragile ecosystem.
He noted the Nation has a mortgage to pay on the property and needs to produce revenue from it to cover the note.
