Abstract

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.
