    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Aggregate industries have raised much controversy within communities due their extracting methods. Through the extraction of aggregates, landscapes are altered which effect ecosystems that contain numerous species, including humans. Water and noise pollution are extensions of aggregate extraction. Extraction sites are known for extending their original land boundaries thus effecting and altering natural landscapes. Aggregate sites also have a tendency to be in close proximity to protected areas thus resulting in the degradation of ecological functions. This is of greater concern when water systems are affected. The focus of the report is on the effects that aggregate industries, including ancillary operations, are having on the environment. This report also investigates what environmental assessments are required, what they entail, and the best practices.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[This report was created for the group Environmental Haliburton! (EH!), an organization situated in Haliburton which provides a strong voice to encourage positive initiatives and oppose those initiatives that could have an adverse effect on the environment. The project was in co-ordination with U-Links as a project within a course at Trent University. The purpose of this report is to examine the Aggregate Resources Act (ARA) as it applies to Haliburton County as a newly designated area. Focus is on legislation and the role that municipalities have in the aggregate resource permit and licensing processes. It is hoped that this report will be a predecessor to further research done in this area.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[The report is the first of two. It focuses on creating a policy scan of provincial aggregate policy, as well as regional and township level policies and by laws. It also details aggregate extraction activities in Haliburton. The environmental impacts of these operation are also discussed. The second report will focus more  on best practices for management and rehabilitation. ]]></dcterms:abstract>
