The applicant requested a change of condition to a provisional consent previously granted by the Ontario Land Tribunal.

The condition required a hydrogeological study, and the applicant sought to amend it to recognize that sodium levels marginally exceeding Ministry guidelines could be treated with a reverse osmosis unit.

The request to change the condition was granted.
