Environmental Compliance Approval and Air Emissions Reporting

< Back

If your facility releases contaminants into the air or creates noise, you may need an Environmental Compliance Approval (ECA) - formerly known as a Certificate of Approval (C of A), from the Ministry of Environment. Most industrial facilities require approval. Some examples where approvals are necessary: particulate emissions from a process, solvent emissions from a painting or manufacturing line and sound from an emergency generator.

Facilities that will release contaminants into the air or create noise, could require a Certificate of Approval from the Ministry of Environment. The definition of a contaminant is very broad. Examples include particulate emissions from a process, solvent emissions from a painting line, nitrogen oxides from combustion sources, or sound from an emergency generator. Unless explicitly exempted, most industrial processes and equipment require approval.

An application for an Environmental Compliance Approval - ECA (formerly known as Air & Noise Certificate of Approval) will generally fall into the following categories: A minor amendment to an existing approval such as a name change or a correction that does not require technical review

Streamlined approvals for equipment that has known and predictable environmental impacts as outlined in the following list:
- Automotive Paint Spray Booths
- Emergency Generator Sets installed at commercial, institutional and municipal facilities
- Combustion Equipment installed at commercial, institutional and municipal facilities
- Cooling Towers installed at commercial, institutional and municipal facilities
- All other applications requiring technical review
