Eastern Ontario man fined $12,500 for altering Ottawa River shoreline

CTV News23-05-2025

An eastern Ontario man has been fined $12,500 for altering the shore along his Ottawa River property.
The Ontario government says the Ontario Court of Justice heard that between May and October 2023, the owner 'conducted shoreline alterations' along his waterfront property in L'Orignal, Ont.
'These alterations consisted of filling shore lands along the shoreline which were completed without the authority of a work permit issued by the Ministry of Natural Resources, as required by the Public Lands Act,' the government said in a media release.
The owner pleaded guilty to altering the shore lands of his property. A justice of the peace heard the case in L'Orignal in January 2025.
'The Ontario government is safeguarding public lands by ensuring required work permits are issued to perform shore lands work,' the government said.
L'Orignal is located 88 kilometres east of downtown Ottawa.
