Notice of determination

June 27, 2022 – Indigenous Services Canada has determined that the proposed Mohawks of the Bay of Quinte – Elder and Disabled Care Home Construction is not likely to cause significant adverse environmental effects.

The determination was based on a consideration of the following factors:

  • Impacts on rights of Indigenous peoples;
  • There will be positive impacts on the rights of Indigenous peoples, associated with the construction of the new Elder and Disabled Care Home, where Elders can receive culturally appropriate care in their community;
  • During construction activities mitigation measures to ensure the protection of the environment, and safety of members of the community will be implemented.  Mitigation measures proposed for the project have been prepared and reviewed by ISC.

Implementation of mitigation measures is required for the project to address:

  • Surface and Groundwater
  • Air and Noise
  • Flora and Fauna

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

Therefore, Indigenous Services Canada may carry out the project, exercise any power, perform any duty or function, or provide financial assistance to enable the project to be carried out in whole or in part.
