Assess the specific noise and vibration impacts of the 'rail spur' and 'access road' traffic on the quality of life for residents in Dyment and Borups Corners.
Strategic Rationale
"The text identifies 'use of access roads and the rail spur' as sources of noise and vibration. Given that Dyment/Borups Corners are situated along the primary transportation corridor (Hwy 17) likely to connect to these access points, the community will experience these effects disproportionately compared to the 'remote' site itself. The Board must ensure the assessment covers the transportation corridor impacts on local well-being, not just the static site impacts."
