Science Response 2009/003
Review of Melford International Terminal’s Environmental Impact Statement
Context
DFO Maritimes Science was asked by DFO’s Environmental Assessment and Major Projects (EAMP) section to review the Melford International Terminal Incorporated’s draft “Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the Proposed Melford International Terminal”, prepared by AMEC Earth and Environmental, on 28 May 2008. A response was requested by 12 June 2008. A final version of the EIS was received in August 2008, and DFO Maritimes Science was asked to compare this draft to the earlier one to determine if the issues identified previously had been addressed. A response was requested before 23 October 2008. Given the short timelines to prepare a response in each case, DFO Maritimes Science determined that a Special Science Response Process would be used. These responses have been combined into a single Science Response report.
