Clean air licence required for Edmonton asphalt plant
Lawrence Meier Trucking Ltd of Medicine Hat may reopen its Edmonton asphalt plant once it secures a Clean Air Act licence and proves to the Environment Department that dust control equipment will be installed. The plant was shut June 21 for unlicensed operations and emissions. The Environment Council of Alberta recommended continuing the stop order until licensure. Environment Minister Jack Cookson said the order will stay in effect until dust equipment is on the way and the licence obtained. He noted permitting reopening before control equipment is installed avoids serious hardship, as dust emissions are unlikely to threaten life, health, or property according to the ECA.
