Notice of Transition to the Amended Impact Assessment Act
Ottawa — September 26, 2024 — On June 20, 2024, the Budget Implementation Act, 2024, No. 1 received Royal Assent and brought into force amendments to the Impact Assessment Act (the IAA). Transitional provision 305 of the Budget Implementation Act, 2024, No. 1 states that in order to bring a designated project under the IAA, the Minister of Environment and Climate Change or the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada (IAAC) must take a step with regard to the project under any of sections 10 to 59 of the IAA.
In accordance with transitional provision 305(2), IAAC is taking the following step under the IAA for the Troilus Mining Project:
In posting this notice, any step completed before the amended IAA came into force regarding the Troilus Mining Project is deemed to have been taken under the amended IAA.
Time limits
Transitional provision 305(4) of the Budget Implementation Act, 2024, No. 1 grants IAAC the power to replace any time limit or period established by or under the IAA with another time limit or period.
IAAC is replacing the time limit for the impact statement phase for the Troilus Mining Project to account for time elapsed during the interim period between the Supreme Court of Canada decision on the constitutionality of the IAA and the coming into force of the amended IAA. The new deadline for the proponent to provide the required information or studies described in the notice of commencement of the impact assessment is January 10, 2027.
