Background<\/h2>

St. Marys Cement (SMC) a company of Votorantim Cimentos North America (VCNA) is undertaking efforts to use Alternative Low Carbon Fuels (ALCF) as an energy source for their St Marys Cement Plant (the Site). This initiative will help reduce greenhouse gas emissions in Ontario while diverting materials from landfills. The Site is located at 400 Bowmanville Ave, Bowmanville, Ontario.<\/p>

Demonstration Trial<\/h2>
St Marys Cement (SMC) has current Environmental Compliance Approvals (ECAs), Numbers 4614-826K9W and 1255-7QVJ2N, that were issued on November 5, 2014 and March 11, 2015, respectively, to undertake an Alternative Fuel Demonstration project. The purpose of the Demonstration Project was to demonstrate the use of alternative fuels at the facility and assess potential environmental effects associated with the use of alternative fuels at the facility relevant to baseline conditions. SMC completed the alternative fuel demonstration trials from September 25, 2018 to December 10, 2018.<\/div>

\u200bAlternative Low Carbon Fuel Study<\/h2>
\u200bIn keeping with best practices being implemented around the world, SMC currently has an ECA to use woody materials as an ALCF at the site and has initiated a study to support the preparation of an ALCF Application under Ontario Regulation (O. Reg) 79\/15 of the Environmental Protection Act to expand the current use of ALCFs at the Site. SMC is proposing to undertake studies and prepare an application to support the following:<\/div>
