20. Mineral Aggregate Resources - Constraints
Anthropological, ecological, groundwater and
physiographical factors (i.e., constraints) that may be
encountered with the planning and development of
mineral aggregate resources
Once the constraining factors were identified, a
scoring scheme was developed to assess the level of
constraint associated with a geographic location
within the UCPR

24. Aggregate Resource Policy Areas
• Aggregate Resource Policy Areas for the purpose of
municipal planning purposes were determined on the
basis of the following criteria:
Unconstrained, minimally constrained and
moderately constrained bedrock resources
Unconstrained, minimally constrained and moderate
constrained primary, secondary, and tertiary sand and
gravel resources
Bedrock, sand and gravel resources as determined by
the Primary Aggregate Resource Policy Area Selection
that are within 500 metres of, and contiguous with, a
licensed pit or quarry
25. Aggregate Resource Policy Areas
In addition, the aggregate policy areas were simplified to
exclude thin or small strips of land based on the following
exclusion criteria:
slivers resource having a width of less than 20m;
contiguous parcels of resource less than 1 ha; and
contiguous parcels of resource having a perimeter to
area ratio greater than 3.0 unless a parcel has an area
greater than 1ha, in which case having a perimeter to
area ratio greater than 4.0.
