The Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change recently updated several pieces of legislation relating to the approval of stationary noise sources in the Province of Ontario. The changes will have a significant impact on the regulatory framework for noise (and vibration) emitters, and will also have a notable impact on the way municipalities assess noise (and vibration) sources within the land use approvals system. Valcoustics Canada Ltd. is pleased to present a half-day seminar to assist municipal employees in understanding these legislative changes and the impact they have on the planning approvals process in Ontario.
