Report - Agence canadienne d'évaluation environnementale

In terms of its integration into the area, the Panel observes that the project, by its very
nature, would diverge from the current Ville-Guay district’s land uses, the area earmarked
to receive the facilities for the future project. The Panel is of the opinion that the project’s
port and on-shore facilities would alter the quality of the Beaumont shore’s landscape. If
the project is authorized, the proponent should ensure the best possible integration of its
facilities to the landscape in the development areas.
Finally, on behalf of the Panel, allow me to acknowledge the extraordinary participation,
unprecedented in Quebec, by the people of Lévis, Beaumont, and l’île d’Orléans, as well
as the scope of their contribution to its work. Their thoroughness, discipline, and courtesy
bear eloquent testimony to their civic engagement and sense of citizenship, and are a
tribute to their communities and to the country’s vibrant democratic traditions.
