DPRA was retained by the Region of Durham to design and implement an innovative approach to citizen involvement in the siting of a bio-solids management facility. In consultation with the Region, we developed a community advisory group that worked with the project team throughout the class EA process for the purpose of identifying preferred alternatives and the preferred site for the facility. The socio-economic impacts of alternative sites were assessed, and impact management measures identified. DPRA also provided strategic advice on the class EA process, evaluation methods, and analytical frameworks.
