St. Mary’s Bowmanville Cement Plant

Location:

  • Eastern Canada

The Challenge:

To come up with noise mitigation measurements that would comply with changes in industry requirements.

The Innovation:

When St. Mary’s Bowmanville Cement Plant, the largest cement plant in Canada, with an operating schedule of 24/7 needed to update the Acoustic Assessment Report, they turned to us. Changes in industry requirements meant we had to acquire the comprehensive environmental permit -Environmental Compliance Approval (ECA) which included an assessment of everything on site, including the quarry, the cement plant, the marine docks, and the aggregate yard. We created a massive computer model and were able to come up with a list of reasonable noise mitigation measurements for the site to comply with regulations.
