footnote[*] Back to paragraph The influence area for pits and quarries is determined by the Ministries of Environment & Energy and Natural Resources on a case-by-case basis. For new operations, the influence area is to be determined by appropriate studies (e.g. noise, dust, vibration, hydrogeological) carried out in support of the applications for licensing or land use approvals. With respect to encroachment of other sensitive land uses upon existing pits and quarries and undeveloped resource areas, the influence area shall either be established by similar studies or in lieu of these studies, the municipality shall apply setbacks from pits and quarries and undeveloped resource areas as specified in Guideline D-6, "Compatibility Between Industrial Facilities and Sensitive Land Uses".
