Community Liaison Committee (CLC) Update

The May 1st deadline for submitting an expression of interest for being a member of the CLC has passed. CertainTeed is reviewing candidates and will be reaching out via email or phone to confirm willingness of participants for this important linkage between the Project and local communities and businesses. CertainTeed hopes to be able to announce final members and have a first meeting in late May/early June. Thank you to all community members that expressed an interest in being part of the CLC. Individual circumstances change so there are often opportunities for new members to replace existing members of the CLC as the Project proceeds. CertainTeed will use the CLC and the Project website to communicate openings when they occur.

CertainTeed has collaborated with the Musquodoboit Valley Communities Association (MVCA) to develop a Request for Proposals (RFP) for an Active Transportation Path Design. This initiative seeks to get conceptual designs and planning constraints identified for a trail that would provide safe passage from the High School to the town center area in Middle Musquodoboit for residents and visitors to use instead of the shoulder of Route #224. MVCA is the project lead and CertainTeed will assist with funding support. Please reach out via this project website to request further information.

During the months of February and March, there will be a continuation of limited activity on site including drilling and sampling for a geotechnical program, and installation of groundwater monitoring wells, as well as ongoing environmental monitoring. These activities include light trucks, a drill rig and field visits by staff to provide information for the permitting and detailed design of the project. If there are any questions or concerns that arise from these activities, please reach out via this project website.

Over the winter months, you may see light vehicles and staff with high visibility clothing completing monitoring of groundwater wells and surface water locations. Heavier trucks and a drill rig may be observed as well through December to install more groundwater monitoring wells and collect geotechnical data on soils and bedrock. If there are any questions or concerns that arise from these activities, please reach out via this project website.

 CertainTeed obtained environmental Assessment Approval on October 25, 2024, for the Antrim Gypsum Project. Many additional permits and approvals are needed before any construction activities occur.

Site activities that are allowable and help gather information for environmental management of the site include groundwater and surface water monitoring, well installation, and geotechnical programs. If there are any questions or concerns that arise from these activities, please reach out via this project website.
