Vents du Kempt Project's BAPE information period is over

BROSSARD, July 3rd, 2011 – The Bureau d’audiences publiques sur l’environnement (BAPE) information and consultation session for the Vents du Kempt wind farm project ended yesterday. During this period, held from May 17th to July 2nd, 2011, the BAPE released to the public the VDK EIA as well as other reports, essentially the entire file on the project, and held a public information session on June 7th at the Sainte-Marguerite-Marie community center. Forty-seven people were present at the meeting. The purpose of the meeting was to inform the public about the project, the environmental impact assessment, the evaluation process, the public consultation process and the BAPE’s mandate

In this 45 day period, any citizen, group, municipality or association can ask the minister of the MDDEP to hold a public hearing. If such a request is made, holding sufficient grounds and justification, the ministry would mandate, during the following weeks, the BAPE to form a commission to investigate further the project and perform more consultations with the population.
