Reasons for a Federal Assessment

On January 16, 2012, it was determined that an environmental assessment was required in relation to the project because Department of National Defence was the proponent for the project.

Project Description (as posted in the Notice of Commencement)

This project will cover all private autocross events at CFB/ASU Edmonton for the period of January- December 2012. All events take place within the training area on the N/E Taxiway tarmac. Most events are solo races, timed with multiple participants on the track at each time, spaced appropriately.

The N/E Taxiway is located on the mid-way point of the former airstrip within the Edmonton Garrison Training Area. CFB/ASU Edmonton is located approximately 1 km North of the City of Edmonton.

Final Decision

On July 6, 2012, the new Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, 2012 came into force which replaced the former Canadian Environmental Assessment Act. As a result, there is no longer a requirement to complete the environmental assessment of this project.
