DION EXPLANATORY NOTE (This explanatory note is not part of the Significant New Activity Notice.) A Significant New Activity Notice (SNAc Notice) is a legal document pursuant to subsection 81(4) of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 (CEPA 1999) issued by the Minister, that lists the activities for a given substance in Canada for which there has been no finding of toxicity under the CEPA 1999. The SNAc Notice sets out the appropriate information that must be sent to the Minister for assessment prior to the commencement of a new activity as described in the SNAc Notice. Substances that are not listed on the Domestic Substances List can only be imported or manufactured by the person who has met the requirements under sections 81 or 106 of the CEPA 1999. Under section 86 of the CEPA 1999, in circumstances where a SNAc Notice is issued for a new substance, it is the responsibility of every person who transfers the physical possession or control of the substance to notify all persons to whom the possession or control is transferred of the obligation to comply with the SNAc Notice and of the obligation to notify any new activity and all other information as described in the SNAc Notice. It is the responsibility of the users of the substance to be aware of and comply with the SNAc Notice and to submit a SNAc notification to the Minister prior to the commencement of a significant new activity associated with the substance. A SNAc Notice does not constitute an endorsement from Environment Canada of the substance to which it relates nor an exemption from any other laws or regulations that are in force in Canada and that may apply to the substance or activities involving the substance. [4-1-o] MIGRATORY BIRDS CONVENTION ACT, 1994 Notice of intent Notice is hereby given that the Department of the Environment proposes amendments to the Migratory Birds Regulations, pursuant to section 12 of the Migratory Birds Convention Act, 1994. The purpose of these amendments to Schedule I is to establish hunting season dates for 2006-2007, as well as the number of migratory game birds that may be taken or possessed during those dates. These restrictions are altered on an annual basis in response to changes in the status of migratory game bird populations. The Canadian Wildlife Service produces two discussion papers as part of its formalized annual consultation process. The November report, entitled Population Status of Migratory Game Birds in Canada, contains population and other biological information on migratory game birds, and thus provides the scientific basis for wildlife management. The proposed changes to the annual hunting regulations, which are based on population trends outlined in the November report, are included in the December report entitled Proposals to Amend the Canadian Migratory Birds Regulations. These two discussion papers are distributed to organizations and individuals with an interest in migratory game bird conservation in order to provide an opportunity for input to the development of hunting regulations in Canada. Hard copies of the above-mentioned documents may be obtained by writing to the Director General, Canadian Wildlife Service, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0H3. Electronic copies may be viewed at the following address: http://www.cws-scf.ec.gc.ca/birds/status/ index_e.cfm. Interested parties who wish to comment on the proposed amendments are invited to submit their comments before February 28, 2006, to the Director General, Canadian Wildlife Service, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0H3.
