Under the Crown Forest Sustainability Act, 1994 and Ontario Regulation 167/95, you need a Forest Resource Processing Facility (mill) Licence if you want to construct and/or operate a mill and your mill consumes more than 1,000 cubic metres of forest resources in one year (regardless of the source). If you have a mill licence, you will need to get a new one where your existing licence is expiring/has expired or your mill: a) changes ownership, and/or b) changes productive capacity, and/or c) is converted to another mill type.
Dairy plant licences must be renewed annually. An application for a licence for the operation of a dairy plant must be submitted at least 60 days prior to the expiry date on an existing licence (s. 95( 4), Regulation 761 - Milk and Milk Products under the Milk Act). If you have recently made any of the following changes to your operation, an application for an Amended licence for the operation of a dairy plant must also be submitted: changes to the classes or subclasses of cow's milk processed at the plant; changes to the species of animal ( cow or goat) that produce the milk processed at the plant; or changes to the type of plant operated.
