If yes, specify the Act of Parliament and that power, duty or function . A Fisheries Act paragraph 35(2)(b) Authorization will be required if the project is likely to cause the harmful alteration, disruption, or destruction to fish habitat and/or a Fisheries Act paragraph 34.4(2)(b) Authorization if the project is likely to result in the deat h of fish. Based on the information provided, it is our understanding that there will be no in -water works related to this project. As such, it is not likely that Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) would be required to exercise a power or perform a duty of function to allow this project to proceed. Should works be proposed that may impact fish and fish habitat (including, for example, water crossings that may be required to access the site), we recommend that the proponent submit a Request for Review for DFO which outlines the specific impacts of the project on fish and fish habitat for review under the Fisheries Act. DFO also reviews projects for effects to listed aquatic species at risk, any part of their critical habitat ...

  • Please stop aerodrome projects and anything with a huge climate impact.  ? The killing of wildlife is not sustainable.  ? Currently, there are no laws mandating that Wildlife Management Programs at airports be humane and non lethal.  That means that virtually any legal method can be used.   (https://iaac-aeic.gc.ca/050/evaluations/proj/87256?culture=en-CA)   https://www.change.org/p/ask-airports-to-stop-killing-deer-and-turkeys-and-stop-trapping-coyotes   I am quite concerned with the requirements for a “wildlife control agent” at an airport to hold a firearm permit.  The laws thankfully do not mandate the killing of animals, but it does not forbid it either.  I sure hope the firearms are to scare animals off, rather than kill them.  https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/sor-96-433/page-22.html#h-989170   Please amend the laws to mandate that wildlife management is only done in a humane, cruelty free no kill manner, by an animal protection organization rather than a trapper, hunter or exterminator.     Wildlife airplane strikes kill animals and humans alike.  This is why it is essential that every airport has a wildlife program.  Airports can use any legal method of animal management. Transport Canada mandates that every ...

The Regulation also provides minimum expectations for how the consultation should be conducted, including timelines, who to notify and under what circumstances. The intent of the Regulation is to compel consultation in advance of an aerodrome work that will result in sustained and regular impact on interested parties as identified in the Regulation.
