安大略新达勒姆(New Durham)的居民反对斯塔布贝(Stubbe)的普罗斯特(Precast)提出的扩建计划,该工程试图在Harley Road和Muir Line附近的208英亩土地上建造190,000平方英尺的工厂和90,000平方英尺的仓库。 Residents of New Durham, Ontario, are opposing a proposed expansion by Stubbe’s Precast, which seeks to build a 190,000-square-foot plant and 90,000-square-foot warehouse on a 208-acre site near Harley Road and Muir Line. 该项目旨在满足不断增长的市场需求和创造大约100个就业机会,引起了人们对噪音、灰尘、光污染增加以及私人水井和当地含水层可能受到污染的关切。 The project, aimed at meeting growing market demand and creating about 100 jobs, has sparked concerns over increased noise, dust, light pollution, and potential contamination of private wells and the local aquifer. 居民害怕可治愈的硅粉尘(一种已知的致癌物)带来风险,并说这种扩张威胁到他们的生活质量、财产价值和村庄的农村特性。 Residents fear risks from respirable silica dust, a known carcinogen, and say the expansion threatens their quality of life, property values, and the rural character of their hamlet. 布兰特县正在2月10日举行公开会议,讨论这项提案,而挖掘工作已经开始。 The County of Brant is holding a public meeting on February 10 to discuss the proposal, while excavation has already begun. 场地计划仍待批准和可能变动。 The site plan remains subject to approval and potential changes.
