RPRA* got in touch with OGCA regarding Ontario’s new On-Site and Excess Soil Management Regulation (Excess Soil Regulation), O. Reg. 406/19. To enable compliance with the regulation, RPRA is building an excess soil registry that, as of January 1, 2022, specified regulated people will be required to use to file a notice before moving or receiving excess soil or operating certain types of sites.
They will be sharing updates and information over the coming months about the Excess Soil Registry that they believe would be useful for some of our key audiences.
You can find out more about the excess soil registry on the project page and more information about who they are and what they do on their website.
