J TIIAT the minutes of a regular meeting of Council held on October 27, 1997, be approved. "CARRIED" .. I DELEGATIONS .. 'I Don Welsh, 4280 Mearns Avenue Bowmanville LIC 3K5, together with Annabelle Sissons, 40 Winters Road, Orono, LOB IMO, addressed Council on behalf of the Older Adults Committee with respect to Report ADMIN-49-97. They noted concurrence with the report but indicated that access to all three levels of the facility should be included in Phase I of the construction. .. 1 - 1 - Council Minutes DELEGATIONS ... - 2 - November 3. 1997 .... David Ashcroft, 63 Cedar Crest Beach Road, Bowmanville, Ll C 3K3, addressed Council in support of the recommendations contained in Report ADML'l'-47-97. He indicated that he appreciates Council's efforts in dealing with this difficult subject. .... .... Leah Houston, Youth in Action, 137 Cedar Crest Beach Road, Bowmanville, LIC 3K3, voiced her strong concerns with respect to the recommendations contained in Report ADMIN-47-97. She indicated that as a member of the Westside Creek Working Group, she laboured hard over the proposals and after 13 weeks talks broke down. She noted that a 60/40 split of saving the Westside Creek Marsh is inadequate and she is concerned that the ecosystem and the relocation of the rock crusher has not been addressed in the report. Ms. Houston questioned why the municipality is putting forward millions of dollars in order to assist Blue Circle with doing what they must do by law. She stated that residents are being asked to jeopardize their homes and the most important resource that the town has to offer is being lost. ..... .... .... Debbie Houston, 137 Cedar Crest Beach Road, Bowmanville, LlC 3K3, addressed Council with respect to Report ADMIN-47-97. She stated that when David Crombie, Waterfront Regeneration Trust, addressed Council regarding the Westside Creek Marsh he indicated that a trust had been broken and that things needed to ~hangein order to bring about a fair compromise. She does not see that anything has in fact changed. Mrs. Houston questioned why the agreement for the marsh has not been put in place and why approval of the senior levels of government has not been been received. As the end of the term of council is rapidly approaching, Mrs. Houston questioned whether the new council should be approving recommendations pertaining to the Westside Creek Marsh. I ... ~ ... David Hill, 101 Cedarcrest Beach Road, Bowmanville, LIC 3K3, a new resident in the area, addressed Council with respect to Report ADMIN-47-97. Mr. Hill, an asthmatic, stated that he has noticed a white precipitate filtering down in his home and since moving into the area one month ago, his ventolin use has increased by 250%. Accordingly, he questioned the health risks associated with the project. Also, he indicated that the project will be devastating to' the birds and wild life in the area and the marsh, located in the middle of the construction site, will not survive. Mr. Hill indicated that the open pit mines will be located 200 yards from his home and access to his home will be become a maze. He suggested that the Council of the Municipality should declare the marsh to be an environmentally protected area. .... ... ..... .. Murray DeHaas, 83 Cedar Crest Beach Road, Bowmanville, LlC 3K3, was called but was not present. .... ,:1: .... ,J .. ~ .. J "" .. Council Minutes - DELEGATIONS - - - - - .. j - 1 ... 1 - 1 - 1 - I - I - I - I - I - I - - 3 - Novemt>er 3, 1997 Mavis Carlton, Box 14, Group 2, Bowmanville, LIC 3K3, thanked all individuals involved with negotiations which have led to the recommendations contained in Report ADMIN-47-97. Ms. Carlton indicated that she looks forward to the formation of the Communications Committee as outlined in the report but is concerned with Section 8.2.1 of the report which states that Blue Circle is not obligated to undertake further works if the compensation measures for the fish rehabilitation do not work. She also questioned appropriate signing for private property on Cove Road, access for emergency vehicles to the area, extension of Liberty Street to join with West Beach Road, the exclusion of S1. Marys in the Municipality's Noise By-law, and the fact that air quality studies in the municipality are long overdue. Glenda Gies, Box 36, Group 2, Bowmanville, LtC 3K3, addressed Council with respect to Report ADMIN-47-97. She indicated that portions of the report are very positive, however, the loss of 40% of the Westside Creek Marsh, the construction of a bridge and conversion of Cove Road into a public road, are not positive recommendations. She reiterated Ms. Carlton's comment that the Communications Committee needs to be established soon and, as this move is happening faster than anticipated, she requested that Blue Circle outline their time frame to the various residents. Bob Morrison, Cedar Crest Beach Road, Group 5, Box 25, RR #2, Bowmanville, LIC 3K3, thanked Council for the democratic process which has been followed in dealing with the issue of the Westside Creek Marsh. He requested clarification on the road closure south of Watson Drive and suggested that municipal water supplies should perhaps be extended to this area now rather than waiting until later. Valerie Dostie, 707 Waverley Road, South, Bowmanville, RR. #2, Box 11, Group 5, Bowmanville, LIC 3K3, addressed Council with respect to Report ADMIN-47-97. She questioned the health effects this application will have on the residents and suggested that a respiratory specialist should be consulted. Also, Mrs. Dostie questioned how far from the residents the alternate crusher will be located and how many times per week Blue Circle will be blasting. She requested that the exemption from the noise by-law which Blue Circle presently enjoys, be revoked. Suzanne Barrett, Waterfront Regeneration Trust, RR #1, Terracotta, Ontario, LOP INO, addressed Council with respect to Report ADMIN-47-97. She stated that this has been an extraordinary process which the municipality has gone through and will be seen as an excellent example of how other municipalities can work together with their businesses and residents in finding positive solutions. Maureen Remington, Box 44021, Oshawa, LIH 8R5, expressed appreciation for the way Council has listened to the residents in dealing with the implementation of the recommendations of the Waterfront Regeneration Trust on the Wests ide Creek Marsh. She sees no substantial increase in the amount of noise and dust in the area but requests that care be taken for the trees on Cove Road. Council Minutes DELEGATIONS COMMUNICATIONS .... - 4 - November 3, 1997 .... Ted Remington, Box 44021, Oshawa, LlH 8RS, thanked Council for listening to the residents in dealing with the recommendations of the Waterfront Regeneration Trust. .... Mars Barrick, 147 Cove Road, Bowmanville, LlC 3K3, indicated concurrence with the comments already received pertaining to Report ADMIN-47-97. She questioned, however, the comment in the report that property values will not be affected and the section addressing expropriation of property. As the municipality has no guarantee that 60% of the marsh will in fact be saved, it is premature at this time to approve all issues. According to Ms. Barrick's calculations, devastation of the marsh will take place within approximately eight years. She questioned why approval is necessary now when environmental regulations will be much more severe in the future. She is concerned that the cost of supplying town water to this area will be phenomenal. ... ... ... Larry Defosse, 125 Cove Road, Bowmanville, LIC 3K3, addressed Council with respect to Report ADMIN-47-97. He stated that this theory might work, however, it has been unproven and he compared this experiment to that of the first heart transplant. Mr. Defosse stated that Blue Circle need not destroy the marsh in order to remain viable. ... ... 0:~ Wilson Little, 410 Waverley Road, Bowmanville, LlC 3K3, was called but was not ~~~" . . ~ M.

The provincial government's new, $30-million Rural Job Strategy Fund provides an excellent opportunity for groups such as yours to help build a brighter future in your local community. .. .. The Fund is designed to encourage partnerships in rural Ontario that will enhance the quality of Ontario products, capitalize on marketing and export opportunities and encourage the adoption of new or upgraded information technology. Over the summer, $3 million of the fund was invested successfully in the Rural Summer Jobs Program, under which rural and agri-food industry employers hired 4,300 students - surpassing by a third our target of 3,000. .. .. This initiative was developed with ideas and suggestions from the people of rural Ontario during extensive, province-wide public consultations earlier this year and is the fulfillment of a commitment made in the May 1997 budget. .. I've enclosed a complete package of information and application forms for your use. Please display the poster, and make the brochures available to anyone or any business that might be interested in the program. This package is being forwarded to a broad range of groups, including all economic development offices, Chambers of Commerce, municipal offices, and several community organizations throughout the province. .. ..

This set of regulations also includes amendments to regulations that were tabled in November 1996. - - "The goal of these regulations is to foster a culture of safety across Canada, as well as to ensure the effective and efficient administration of the new firearms legislation," said Minister McLellan. "We have tried to accommodate as much as possible the concerns of firearm owners and users, while ensuring that firearms are used safely at all times. " . - The regulations were developed following extensive consultations with firearm users and industry groups, including the User Group on Firearms - an advisory group to the Government established in 1995 - victims of violence, police, Chief Firearms Officers from across Canada, shooting organizations, women's organizations, health professionals, and businesses. - .. After review by Parliament, the Firea.rJos Act and regulations will be brought into effect on October 1, 1998. Anyone with questions on the new fireal~S legislation or the proposed regulations, or requiring the plain language guide to the proposed regulations, is invited to call the toll-free Canadian Firearms Centre enquiries line at 1-800-731-4000, or VIsit our website at http://canada.justice.gc.ca. - - - 30 - - Ref: Jean Valin Canadian Firearms (613) 946-1645 [ DISTRfBUTl()'N- IELttt~ --~---_.- , ,<\1.1\ 8'1' ! -", ._...._~,---- I 0"1" 11\1 "l Tn /c. i'!..Jftz; , I K IJ ;1;\ I.f~.... __.._., _..'~ L.COP I ES T~~ d;;jC., I t. 1- ----- -. , , i--- (,.._,.-~._.- aise dlsponible) - '~. 01-.--' ...

The Honourable Anne McLellan, Minister of Justice and Allorney General of Canada, has tabled a new set of proposed regulations to support the Fire/l/711SAcI. This set of regulations also includes modifications to an earlier set of regulations tabled in November 1996. IIIIIi FOCUS ON SAFETY .. In line with the Government's goal of ensuring the safety of all Canadians, shooting clubs and shooting ranges, including long-gun ranges. will have to meet new national standards for their safe operation. These were developed in consultation with provincial authorities and the police. Measures such as approved design standards and safety rules for both clubs and ranges will help create a safe environment for target shooting. ... .. Safety measures will also be applied to gun shows. Both sponsors of, and exhibitors at. gun shows will have to make sure that all firearms are stored, displayed and handled in a secured and supervised environment in accordance with safe storage regulations. .. AN EFFECTIVE AND EFFICIENT REGISTRATION SYSTEM .. The goal of the registration system is support for law enforcement and crime control and prevention. Registration will help police track stolen guns, curb the trafficking of firearms. and will act as an incentive for proper storage by firearm owners. It also will help ensure the safety of police officers responding to domestic violence situations and other potentially dangerous calls. .. The role of the registration system is to allow a specific firearm to be distinguished from all other firearms in the database. and to link a particular owner with the firearm. To make sure that the registration system is as effective and efficient as possible. procedures will be put in place that will help keep information on each firearm current and accurate, and that will ensure each firearm can be uniquely identified. IIIIIi .. Efforts have been made to guarantee that all registration requirements will be as fair and easy to comply with as possible for the responsible firearm owner. - .. ...2 .. .. ... ... DATE: 11/20/91 TIME: 05:48 PM TO: 1-905-623-4169 FROM: PAGE: 004-016 .. .. VISITORS TO CANADA .. The regulations will apply to everyone with firearms. including visitors to Canada. These regulations provide for simple and straightforward procedures under the law for both non-residents and Canadian residents to take their firearms back and forth across the border. These regulations will come into effect on January 1, 2001. .. OTHER ISSUES .. .. The 1997 regulations cover two more topics. The Special Authority to Possess Regulations accommodate the needs of the film, movie and theatre industry, as well as owners of prohibited firearms. Public Agent Firearms Regulations pertain to peace officers such as the police, and other public service agencies. .. The modifications to the 1996 set of regulations. pertaining to certain fees, the verification of firearms on transfer, and the use of Canada Post to mail non-restricted firearms in Canada. were made as a result of extensive consultations with affected parties. .. It is anticipated that the House of Commons Standing Committee 011 Justice and Legal Aff airs and perhaps the Senate Standing Committee on Legal and Constitutional Affairs will hold public hearings on the regulations. After review by Parliament, the F.ireaJ71}S Act and regulations will be brought into effect on October I, 1998. - .. The Government's comprehensive package of firearms legislation \vas introduced as Bill C-68 on February 14, 1995, and received Royal Assent on December 5 of the same year. It included the new FireamlsAct, which established a licencing program for firearm owners, a registration program for firearms, and Cnilllilal Code amendments that strengthened the penalties for the illegal use of firearms. The proposed regulations will provide an effective administrative framework for the FireamlsAct . .. .. - - - .. .. - - . ........ ....t./"\J/~l .......1.1:..

This fact sheet is a summary of the key registration provisions in the F~i~d~~S Act and regulations. Hote: These proposed regulations are not yet in force. They will corne into force on October 1, 1998. - Applying for a Registration Certificate - Under the F~i~d~~S Act, you will have until January 1. 2003 to register all firearms that you now own, You may apply to register all of your firearms at once, for one flat fee. but you will receive a separate registration certificate for each of your firearms. Any firearms that you acquire after the Act comes into effect will have to be registered in your name at the time of acquisition. .. To register a firearm, you will need either a valid Firearms Acquisition Certificate or one of the new licences issued under the F~i~d~~S Act, The licence must cover the class of firearm being registered. You can apply for a licence and registration certificate at the same time. - Identifying Firearms - The application form will ask you to provide detailed information on each firearm being registered, such as the make, model, calibre, barrel length. number of shots, manufacturer and serial number if there is one. The Registrar's office will compare this information to a Firearms Reference Table. If the information doesn't match. or if any of your firearms are not on the Registrar's table of firearms, the Registrar will seek more information from you, .. .. Once a firearm has been properly identified and classified as non-restricted, restricted or prohibited. the Registrar will issue a registration certificate for that firearm, On the registration certificate, there will be a firearm identification number (FIN) that the Registrar has assigned to the registered firearm, If the firearm has no serial number, or if the serial number is not unique and there is no other way to tell the firearm apart from other firearms. you will have to put the FIN on the firearm. (The Registrar will tell you if you have to put it on.) For any firearms that you own at the start of registration you may ei ther use a special sticker provided by the Registrar, or you may permanently and legibly engrave or stamp the FIN on the firearm, You will not be able to use a sticker for any firearms you acquire after registration starts. eKcept for imported firearms that were manufactured before the start of registration. - - The FIN must be visible to the naked eye. frame or receiver unless: on a clearly visible part of the - - the manufacturer of that type of firearm usually places the serial number ~n a hidden place; - the firearm does not have a visible space that is suitable for stamping, engrav~ng or sticking the FIN; - making the FIN visible would greatly reduce the value of rare or unusually valuable firearms (applies only to firearms that you own at the start of regist ra t ion) , - - - - - ... - 2 - - the firearm has been imported by a licensed business for a short time only, for a purpose set out in section 21 of the licensing provisions in the firearms licence regulations ... Kovie suppliers and Museuas do not have to visibly mark firearms when they are importing firearms temporarily for a film or movie production, or for an exhibition. ... If you choose to use the sticker to attach the FIN, you must do so within 30 days of the date on the registration certificate. If you choose to stamp or engrave the FIN on the firearm, you will have 90 days to do it. If a FIN sticker comes off a firearm or becomes impossible to read, notify the Registrar without delay, When the Registrar sends you a new sticker, put it on the firearm as soon as you get it, J 1 - Verifying Firearas To protect the integrity of the information in the Registry, the regulations allow for a gradual verification process. While you may have the registration data on your firearms verified at any time, the regulations will not require verification of the data until the firearm is transferred to someone else for the first time. The registration certification will indicate if a firearm has been verified, This requirement will not come into effect until January 1, 2003. 1 l Changing FirearMs 1 You must notify the Registrar within 60 days if you change a registered firearm in any way that could change the class of the firearm, or if you modify the action, calibre or barrel length of a registered frame or receiver, even if it does not change the class of the firearm. (These requirements may not apply to firearms used by the movie industry for film productions if the changes are only going to be for 12 months or less.) I J, Revoking a Registration Certificate 1 The Registrar may revoke a registration certificate if you do not meet a requirement to mark the firearm or to notify the Registrar of changes to the firearm, If a registration certificate is revoked, you may appeal to a provincial court judge, IIIIIll The Registrar may also revoke the registration certificate for any firearm reported lost or stolen. If the firearm is later recovered, the registration certificate will be reissued at no cost to you. Fees ... Between the time that the Act comes into effect and January 1, 2003, there will be one flat fee to register all the firearms you own at the start of registration, if you register them all at the same time. The proposed flat will be $10 for all firearms registered at the same time between October 1, 1998 and September 30. 1999; $14 for all firearms registered at the same time between October 1, 1999 and June 30, 2000; and $18 for all firearms registered at the same time on or after July 1, 2000, The registration fee for each newly acquired firearm will be $25.

Each registration certificate will be valid for as long as you own the firearm, unless you modify the firearm to the point where you change its class, or you modify the frame or receiver of a registered firearm In that case, you will need a new registration certificate to reflect the change.

He noted that there may be several subsequent bookings for In Repose as a result of the conference. .. HALLOWE'EN WORKSHOPS .., The Hallowe'en workshops were cancelled due to a lack of registrants.

(Attached) - - TREASURER'S REPORT Gavin presented the month end accounts and expenses for October. - - **97-53** Moved by Donna, Seconded by Darlene, that these accounts be paid as presented. (Attached) Carried. .. Darlene expressed her support for the changes in the treasury acknowledging that there is a lot of work involved for a working Board Member. She expressed her concern that there had been a lack of communication between the Museum and herself, and her predecessor during their time as Treasurer. - Mark feels that it is inappropriate to accredit any statement of a lack of communication to a former Board Member when they are not present to make a statement themselves. - Brian also feels that the duties of Treasurer are too much for a volunteer to take on. He feels that the new position of Chair of Finance can now concentrate on an overview of the budget and the fundraising aspects of the Museum. - Brian also reminded the Board to use the Other MatterslNew Business to raise any other issues they may have, - Gavin reviewed the Museum's finances to the end of the third quarter and then presented the Budget Proposal for 1998. He noted that there are changes to the amounts in a number of categories. These changes were made to better reflect the actual expenses of the Museum in these areas, many of which have not been changed in over six years. .. - Donald raised questions surrounding the cost of the photocopier and its use. Suggesting that it might be an option to take some of the jobs to another location for duplication to reduce costs. - Gavin noted that the leasing agreement for the copier is a fixed cost and that the cost per copy is less producing the materials in house than it would be if they were contracted out. He also noted that if this copier were not available, there would still be the need of some form of copier in order to conduct regular Museum business including research requests. - **97-54** Moved by Donald, Seconded by Angela that the proposed budget be adopted as the budget for 1998 and submitted to the Municipality. Carried. - t-.1ark noted that the new Board will have to pass a secondary motion in January to confirm the action on the budget as this is an election year and the current Board cannot make decisions which will bind the new Board. - CURATORS REPORT - Nothing. to report at this time. - -4- ... .. OTHER MA TTERS/NEW BUSINESS Angela expressed her desire to remain on the Board for another term. .. Mark reviewed the procedure that would occur with respect to re-application to the Board. **97-55** Moved by Darlene, Seconded by Angela, that the minutes of the Board of Directors continue to be mailed out. Carried. .. .. Donna reported that the grant requested for the restoration of the cutter was not approved this year. She said that there will be a letter coming from Mr. Cureatz stating the reasons later. This year the grant went to the Orono United Church to aid with the installation of an elevator. She suggested that the grant application should be increased to $8,000 next year to cover any increased costs that might occur as a result of the delay. .. Brian requested help from Donna in the new year to re-apply for the grant or to pass on the information for others to continue the effort to restore the cutter. .. Brian noted that there may questions which have arisen re: the changes in the treasury. He noted that there is a need for the Finance Chair to be able to concentrate on and push the fundraising aspects of the Museum rather than to have to worry about the day to day operation. The Financ~ Chair will still have an overview of the accounts to keep track of what is occurring, and should meet with the Treasurer prior to the Board meeting to review the accounts. .. .. Brian is hoping to be returned to the Board next year. Those seeking positions of responsibility on the Executive should submit their names to the Recording Secretary. .. Donald noted that this has been a very difficult and trying year for him and he has tried to fulfil his duties and responsibilities. He admits to being baffled at the time of Brian's call. He handed over the accounts to the new Treasurer and was left with a sense of failure on his part. He stated that he would have felt better had he been present when the changes were made to be part of the discussion. He is hoping for a better year next year. He will be willing to help with special events even if not re-appointed to the Board for another term. ... .... Darlene expressed her concern that communications should be up front. .. Donald acknowledged the help and co-operation that he had received. Brian noted that the changes were not a reflection on Donald's work a<; Trea<;urer but rather a change that would benefit the Board and the Museum in the Future, .. Donna stated that she is not sure that the Municipality fully appreciates the volume of work involved for volunteers on the Board of Directors. She noted that the current council has been very understanding of these issues but it is difficult for the message to be carried forward to council when the councillors are absent. .. .. Brian noted that fiancees are getting more and more complicated as time progresses and especially in the current tight financial times. .. .. ... .... -5- - Mark noted that any perceived gaps in communication are not intentional. He noted that the staff feels unappreciated by the Board as we also have lives outside of work and must answer to three different ma<;ters; the council, the board; and the public. - Brian expressed his appreciation of the work of both Mark and Shirley and thanked them for their efforts in all respects. - Brian suggested that when the Board is introduced to the new council they should be made aware of the need for greater recognition of the Board and its efforts. - Darlene appreciates the large number and variety of activities that the Museum undertakes on a yearly basis and wonders if we may not be offering to many activities. - Brian offered his home for a gathering of the Board some time following the December Board Meeting. .. **97-56** Moved by Donald, Seconded by Valerie, that the next meeting of the Board of Directors be held on Tuesday December 2nd, 1997 at 7:00 PM. Carried - **97-57** Moved by Darlene, Seconded by Donald, that the meeting adjourn at 8:43 PM. Carried. .. - fOISTJ!WSl,JTION t I CLERK~__ I ' JACK. BY _ I I ORIGINAL T .. I-- COPIES TO: - Gavin M.

It will be led by Prime Minister Jean Chretien, who will be accompanied by federal ministers, provincial premiers, territorial leaders, municipal officials and senior private sector representatives. The delegation will travel to Mexico, Brazil, Argentina and Chile from January 10-23, 1998 to advance bilateral trade and investment interests in these key markets. Team Canada will also serve to showcase Canadian companies in the region. For municipal leaders, the mission is an opportunity to promote local companies, attract investment and establish strategic partnerships with businesses and cities in Latin America. Team Canada's municipal component recognizes the emerging importance of municipal institutions in international trade and investment. DFAIT has provided the FCM-Ied municipal delegation with dedicated liaison officers in Canada and at posts in Latin America. There will be special events with municipal leaders and private companies in Mexico City, Brasilia, Sao Paulo, Buenos Aires, and Santiago. As well, all Canadian embassies in the region have been instructed to support the municipal program. There will be two groups of municipal participants. Both must pay a fee. The expenses only of the Prime Minister, the premiers and their staff are covered by the federal government. We have to this point not achieved the same arrangement for the official municipal delegation. .../2 24, rue Clarence Street, Ottawa, Ontario Kl N 5Pj Telephone/Telephone: (613) 241-5221.

Its primary focus will be on export awareness and market development. Participants will arrange their own travel, accommodation and local transportation. They may travel to one or all of the cities in the region and take part in specific meetings and events, but will not be invited to attend state functions. The fee for participating in Group A is $900, which covers administrative costs for the municipal program. Group B will form part of the official party of approximately 50 government leaders, and will take part in most protocol and official functions, space permitting. DFAIT has set aside 12 spaces for municipal leaders in Group B. The selection of participants for Group B will be based on three criteria: the size of the private sector delegation from the local area; regional representation; and existing links/partnerships in Latin America. The fee for participating in Group B is $9,500. This will cover air fare, social events, local transportation and administrative costs for the municipal program. Accommodation, personal travel, travel insurance and un-hosted meals are not included. These expenses are estimated at $4,500 -$7,000. Full refunds will be issued if, because of space limitations, participation in Group B is not possible. Those participating in Group A or Group B must compiete an Intent to Participate Form and mail a cheque (made payable to FCM) for $900 or $9,500 before November 28, 1997 to be eligible. It is important that all Group B applicants also submit a Group A Intent to Participate Form if they wish to ensure their participation in this mission. If all spaces in Group B are filled, then applicants for Group B will be assigned to Group A. A refund of the full amount less the Group A fee will be issued. A detailed municipal program will be mailed to all participants by December 10,1997. lda7 FCM President ~) ~ '" , ", . ".'. '-. ---'-"'-'.

The most recent AECB Radiation Monitor shows that, for the three-month period from July 1 to September 30, 1997, the public radiation doses. due to the operation of the Darlington and Pickering stations were 1.4 and 4.4 microsieverts, respectively. In comparison, a typical chest X-ray produces a dose of approximately 70 microsieverts, while a return flight from Toronto to Vancouver would result in an increased dose from cosmic radiation of about 20 microsieverts. The doses indicated due to the operation of the nuclear stations are for the most exposed persons, typically those living just outside the station boundary. Most persons in the region would have received less, since radiation doses decrease significantly as the distance from the stations increases. Copies of the Radiation Monitor or related information may be obtained directly from the AECB by calling 1-800-668-5284. -30- . .~. . ," .. . "')?j3"",'I"'" .' , ~ '.

RADIATION MONITOR NUCLEAR GENERATING STATIONS IN DURHAM REGION Third quarter 1997 (July 1 to September 30) This information is provided by the Atomic Energy Control Board, Canada's nuclear regulator. Radiation dose due to emissions from the nuclear generating stations. Dose is reported in microsieverts (IlSv). an international unit used to measure dose. - DARLINGTON - July 1 to September 30, 1997: 1.4 - - previous quarter: 1.4 - TOTAL FOR 1997: 3.7 - Dose from a single chest X.ray: about 70 - - - - - - Dose from a single chest X-ray: about 70 - Note: Natural background radiation, the annual legal limit for station emissions. and the dose from a typical X-ray are provided for reference. Emissions are in addition to background radiation. - The radiation doses due to emissions are' for the most exposed persons living near the station, They would typically apply to persons living just outside the station boundary who are at their residences 24 hours a day, who drink local water and milk, and eat local fish and produce The doses were calculated using actual data from routine analysis of air, water. milk. fish and vegetation samples, as well as station emission data Most persons would actually receive less - - than the doses indicated because they have different eating habits or live farther away from the station Radiation doses decrease signifi- cantly as the distance from the station increases, Persons living midway between the two stations would therefore receive less than the doses indicated for either of the stations Less than I % of the rad iat ion dose received from the stations was due to liquid emissions, while the remainder was a result of airborne emissions - For further information, please call us at 1-8llO-668-S284.

COUNCIL INFORMATION 1-7 SOLID COIIIIUIIIft ~RB BOARD AIIJI1JAL GBlIBRAL IIBftIRG ROVBMBBR 24, 1997 There were 21 people in attendance. John McAlpine opened the meeting by thanking all the people who worked so hard to make the park and hall a success again this year. The minutes were read from the previous meeting. Bruce Taylor moved that the minutes be accepted as read, seconded by Don Dair. The treasurer's report was given. Herb Tink moved that these be accepted. Seconded by Suzanne Simpson. The auditor's report was given by Suzanne Simpson. She and Bruce Taylor found the books to be in good order. HALL COMMITTEE The Hall committee report was given by John Brudek. The kitchen floor was replaced this year. The curtains and hall painting are still on their wish list. There was some vandalism in the form of broken windows this year. These have all been replaced. The Smart Serve course was taken by some people this year, and this has led to new names on the list for bartenders. This is still available for anyone who wishes to do bartending duties. Overall this was a low budget year. John Brudek wishes to resign this year. A replacement has not yet been found. The others will continue to serve another term. Karen Dair, Wendy Johanson, Heather McAlpine, and Clarence Bray. Heather will assume the position as chair of the committee this year. RECREATION COMMITTEE. The Rec committee report was given by Herb Tink. There were four baseball and four soccer teams this year, the newest of which was the Mosquito soccer for boys 11 - 12 years old. The Rec volunteers will all remain for another year. It was a good season with very few problems. Awards night was held in September. All participants received a medallion, and the coaches were rewarded with golf shirts. This committee will continue to be made up of:Herb Tink, Jeff Knox, Rob Johanson, Steve Thompson and Debbie Hartford. .. PARK COMMITTEE .. John McAlpine gave the Park report. The rentals were up this year, and it looks good for next year as some groups plan to return. .. There were some negative comments this year, which were dealt with at the time. These people were invited to attend the meeting in order to have their say. They did not show up. There are some projects planned for next year - planting more trees, and doing more repairs to the booth. Sherry Baker has tendered her resignation, the others will remain. Don Dair, John McAlpine, Pete Keuning and Cheryl Lupton. No replacement has been found at this time. A suggestion was made by Karen Dair, that we chose a nominating committee for next year, in hopes that empty positions will be filled by the time we hold our meeting. .. ... ... ... vi Ashton moved that these reports be accepted as read. Jean Taylor seconded the motion. Correspondence: A thank you card was read from St. vincent. Food left over from tournaments was donated to them rather than refreezing. Once again, they were very appreciative of the gesture. There are also a couple of boxes of hamburgs and sausages in the freezer. If some one would like to buy these, they may do so by calling John. Otherwise, these will be taken down to St. vincent's. ... - ... .... NEW BUSINESS Jean Taylor spoke on behalf of the W.I. with regards to the cleaning of the hall. Last summer, a member of the WI took another person up to the hall with her and completely washed the stage and hall floor. All windows were cleaned as well as the washrooms. This will not be done again. They requested that arrangements be made to have the hall spring cleaned every year by an outside cleaner. ... - ... They also made their concerns known about the hall being left dirty after an event, and the cleaning is not done until there is another event. They would like this to be done following each event. If the hall should be required on short notice, it would not be ready. The garbage should also be removed immediately after, and not left for a few days. Having an outside caretaker, does not leave anyone in the village responsible for making sure that the lights have been turned off, and the building properly locked. - ... ... These issues will be taken up by the hall committee at their next meeting. ... ... .. - - - - All fees for the Hall were reviewed. Ida Bray moved that the banquets for outsiders should have the fee raised to $12.00 per person. Mary Millson seconded the motion, passed. Bruce Taylor moved that all other fees remain the same. This was seconded by Alma Langmaid and passed. vi requested stronger support from the community for banquets. The hall is barely supporting itself, and the banquets are an excellent source of revenue. John McAlpine requested that anyone with a complaint should contact the appropriate committee about their problems. Right .. now, he is receiving complaints from all areas, and all he can do is refer these to the committees. .. - .. - Rick McCaul requested permission to have a Beaver troop in Solina Hall. They meet Wednesday night from 5:45 to 7:00 p.m. The Hampton group had 38 boys attend this year. Due to the high number, four of them flew up to cubs. There were 13 from Solina and he feels that we can support a group here. Don Dair moved that the Beavers be allowed to use the hall starting January 1998. Suzanne Simpson seconded the motion, passed. They will have to discuss their plans with the WI since they meet there once a month, but it should not be a problem since their time is 8:00 p.m. vi requested that the parking immediately around the hall needs improvement. It is worn down to clay now. This will be _ discussed by the Hall Board. Don Dair moved that the meeting be adjourned, seconded by Rick McCaul. .. .. .. .. .. - - .. --oiSTRIBUTION \ CLERK- -- \ ACK.

REPORT 1. Back~ound 1.1 The Region is building a cost-effective geographical mapping and infonnation system. It is based largely on information sharing and cooperative efforts with area munil;ipalities, the Province and various private sector utilities. For e:r~le, the Region bas obtained a property fabric for the Town of Ajax through a cooperative effort with the Town and the municipal and private sector utilities. 1.2 The opportunity exists now to partnersbip with private utilities and the City of Oshawa to improve and to share the Oshawa property fabric. There are approximately 40,000 properties in the City of Oshawa. 1.3 Staff of the City of Osbawa advised that a contribution of $12,000.000 is required for the Region to participate and obtain the property fabric. Bell, Rogers, and Consumers Gas are also asked to contrIbute this amount. There is also an annual maintenance cost for each panicipant. 66 J J J J J J J J J J J 1 1 j I I I I I 1.4 Obtaining the Osbawa property fabric is a cost effective solution that avoids duplication and promotes partnerships with the private sector. The City of Osbawa's property fabric is of high quality and represents a considerable existing investment. The information can assist all of the Region's line departments in efficiently canying out automated mapping to serve their business needs. The property fabric is linked to various data bases by the respective departments, such as assessment records, crime records, water sewer capacity, etc. It allows the visual display and mapping of information, thereby assisting various departments in data analysis and decision-nmking. - - Joint Commissioners' Repon No. 95-J-12 - - - - Page 2 1.5 Based on the above, it is recommended that fundmg be authorized up to a mn'itml11l of $12,000, for costs re~ to participation in a cooperate effort to improve and share in the use of the City of Osbawa's property fabric infmmation, and that the fin~ncing be provided from the Region's consolidated smplus operating funds in 1995. - - - 1.6 This Report bas been discussed with senior staff of the Region's Fp,~nc'P- Department and they agree with the recommendation. - - - - A.L. r M.C.I.P., R.P.P. . . ner of P1~nni"g - - *~~ G. in, M.S.W.

Background - 2.1 Canadian Waste Services (CWS-formerly Laidlaw Waste Systems Ltd.) contracts with the Region of Durham for the haulage and disposal of residential waste within the Municipality of Clarington. CWS currently uses the existing waste transfer facility at Pebblestone Multi-Services in Whitby. - - 2.2 On August 18, 1997, Clarington Council approved a recommendation to prepare an offer to purchase a 13 acre site located at 178 Darlington-Clarke Townline Road (see attached location sketch) for use as a waste transfer site by CWS. The Municipality applied for the Certificate of Approval to permit the waste transfer operation. The waste to be transferred would be non- hazardous domestic waste at a maximum volume of 299 tonnes per day. An average of 8 truck trips per day with a maximum of 30 trucks per day is anticipated. - - - - 2.3 The proposed waste transfer site was previously used by the Ministry of Transportation as a works yard, primarily for the maintenance of Highway #2 in the Clarington area.

On September 22, 1997, the Minister of Education and Training introduced Bill 160, Education Qualify Improvement Act, 1997. Part of this Bill represents yet another piece of legislation related to the Government's Who Does What initiative. - Education finance reform has been an Integral component of the rationalization and disentanglement of funding responsibilities between the Province and municipalities. In May, the Government announced that it would be removing half of the costs of education from the residential property tax base and replacing it with a new provincial rate. Due to its inherent relationship to municipal financing reform, AMO and its members have an interest in education funding. - - AMO's written submission to the committee focussed exclusively on the education financing components of the legislation and its impact on municipal finances. Highlights of the submission follow. A full copy of the submission is available on the Municom Network or can be ordered by calling Gwen Rideout at AMO at (416) 971-9856 ext. 330. - Highlights of AMQ's submission: - AMO: . supports the need for education financing reform in order to bring accountability to the system and to deal with spiralling costs for local tax payers; reiterated its longstanding position that costs of education and income redistribution programs should not be funded from residential property taxes. As such, AMO is committed to work towards completely removing it from the residential tax base; called on the Government to provide the vital information to assist municipalities in making their tax policy decisions. In the area of education finance reform, we need to know the education tax rates immediately. feels that the responsibility for ensuring equity in education taxation belongs with the Province, however, the Province must consider the different impacts of education rates on municipalities. - - - . ..

Jae Eadie, President of the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) and Mayor Gilles Vaillancourt (Laval), Chair of FCM's Standing Committee on Municipal Finance addressed the House of Commons Standing Committee on Finance today in regards to a number of important policy questions ranging from climate change to infrastructure, This pre-budget engagement is one of the critical arenas for agencies, associations and federations to go on record and put forward research, recommend policy, and promote strategies for change to inform federal action and legislation. - - In his opening remarks, FCM President Eadie made reference to the federal budgetary surplus and the "fiscal dividend" underscoring a shared concern of municipalities across the country commenting that, "the greatest omission has been what municipal governments consider to be an ongoing priority - reinvestment in municipal and transportation infrastructure following years of fiscal restraint, federal withdrawal from transportation and offloading of costs to municipal government." - - President Eadie congratulated the federal government on its involvement in infrastructure renewal but observed that 'a long-term tripartite strategy is required to adequately address the existing municipal infrastructure deficit and the need for new facilities owing to rapid population growth under federal immigration policy," - FCM has been consistently seeking redress on national transportation trends which are having a negative impact on commerce, trade and the environment. Mayor Vaillancourt spoke to the seriousness of current shortfalls, 'communities across Canada have been hard hit by the federal's governments unprecedented lArithdrawaI from transportation As the order of government closest to the people, we are witnessing a growing backlash In the Atlantic, the West and the North against the federal government's offloading of airports, seaports, fishing harbours, rail line abandonments, VIA rail service reductions, and highway deterioration, These un:Jrecedented cut backs in transportation are fueling regionalism and alienation between rural and urban Canada" FCM views current practices as unsustainable and urges the federal government to support a fejeral-r:-rovincial/territorlal ~~ational Highway Program - - /1s we approach the international meeting in Kyoto, Japan, greenhouse gas emission have come up for frequent dlScusslcr both in the media and in the House of Commons, FCM has been pressing for fiscal reforms that would ena:J'e municipal governments to expand their commitment to reducing the production of these climate- chcnging gases, - - Mavor Va ,Iancourt expressed the willingness of Canadian municipalities to further engage In this reduction prccess FCM believes that Canada must live lip to its commitments or: global warming Municipal go\ernme'its are key players in relation to climate change and are prepared to cooperate with the federal g::-,ernme~,~ - but cooperation must be a two-way street." - Pres'dent Eadie informed the committee of FCM's expertise in delivering overseas development assistance el1'1['lo)'1I19 a municipal-to-municipal model with funding support from the Canadian International Development ,A r;e'icy ;:)resident EadiE emphasized that, "Canadian municipalities are ideally positioned to sf1are our tecnnlcal 2nd admlnistratl'./e knowledge with our overseas counterparts, The partnerships nc,t :-"'1 Involve 111',,"1 clpa'l: es but create imoortant windows for Canadian companies involved In soft and hard l~fr2structure - - F'e prese-tatlon concluded with a restatement of key policy objectives - reinvestment in mu'l clpa! and tra"'spJ'ta: en Infrastructure and reforms to the tax system to provide municipalities necessary tCJIS:O move te ,', ere er', 'on menta sustatnability, -30- For further information, contact Alex Smith at (613) 241-5221, ext. 227. - - l3: 11 :SZ EST: ASSOCIATIon OF?-} 9B56234169 CLERH-CIarington Nun PageBB2 COUNCIL INFORMATION FAX NO. 4169716191 Ip~ J?

Bill 109 was part of the WDW announcements. It amended the Public Libraries Act, 1990 which mandates library boards as special purpose bodies and sets out, among other matters, the composition, qualifications, duties, siz.e, and reporting procedures of these boards. .. The Crombie Panel recommended that municipalities be given the authority for determining how library services should be governed, the appropriate administrative structure and the policies, programs and resources required to satisfy local needs and local efficiencies. The Panel also recommended that municipalities be fully responsible for financing libraries since they already funded the major portion of Iiblwy cost ($330 million municipal expenditure compared to the Province's $18 million in 1997/98, down from $24 million). .. Bill 1 09 did not fully embrace the Panel's recommendations. It continued to mandate library boards as a special purpose body. However, municipal councils, not the Province, would have the authority to appoint board members, to determine qualifications, and set out procedures for the operation of tho boards, Municipal councils' retained the approval of library board budgets. .., AMO's presentation to the Standing Committee indicated that the Bill, while a good start. fell short of municipa.l expectations. AMO supported the Crombie recommendations. - - - - STATUS: - .., Bill 109 was in Third Reading debate before the House rose. Its passage was considered imminent. The withdrawal, announced late Friday, November 7, came without consultation or forewarning to either AMO or :he Ontario Public Libraries Association. I" By wilhdrc::,'.ing the Bill, the $18 million provincial operating grant sub~idy has beel1 restored. The Province, Ir rDugh the Public Libraries Act, 1990 will continue to govern public library boards as will its regulation r~garding user fees. " The re5toration of the operating grant will provide some financial relief to the smaller nlunicipallibrary syslen's t'l?,t generally benefited from the subsidy.

I was given a very clear mandate and it is one that I am looking forward to fulfilling to the benefit of the many Ontarians who are counting on us to help them make the transition from welfare dependency to self sufficiency- My mandate is to support the implementation of Ontario Works - Ontario's, new workfare program, and I am writing to ask you to become a partner in that implementation. The result will be the transfOlmation Ontario's welfare system. Ontario Works is refocusing welfare as a labour market support that helps people get back to work, to contribute to their communities, and to become self-reliant. Ontario Works was introduced in the sununer of 1996 and implementation is well undeI\vay across the province. New legislation was introduced this spring that would allow for full implementation in 1998. Ontario Works is based on the principle of responsibility. It recognizes the responsibility of the provincial govenunent and municipalities to people who need financial assistance and help to get back to work. It recognizes the responsibility of people receiving financial assistance - the responsibility to work, to invest in their own futures and to contribute to the communities in which they Eve. Ontario Works opens up new opportunities for partnerships with busi~ess and community organizations to get involved in sponsoring initiatives that benefit communities and help people to gain valuable skills and experience, to connect with their community and to make a meaningful contribution. They key components of Ontario Works are: Community Participation activities, in the not-for-profit sector. This is volunteer community service that allows participants to acquire the skills, confidence, contacts and opportunities to gain employment while contributing to their communities; Employment Supports, which include assistance with job searches and related senrices, including refen-al to basic education and job-specific skills training; Employment Placement through job placement and self-employment development agencies on a fee for performance basis. ,,,,) . , .. Municipalities, community-based organizations, and welfare recipients are already involved in Ontario Works and the program has now been launched in 44 communities aCrOSs the province. The continued success of the Ontario Works program will be dependent upon the development of strong community partnerships. You as a leader in your municipality can play an important role in ensuring meaningful and sustainable benefits to the participants in the program and to the community at large. .. .. While municipalities will be playing a key role in administering and managing Ontario Works, a number of municipalities are also demonstrating practical leadership by creating Community Participation opportunities within the municipality. Many welfare recipients have valuable skills and experience that can benefit municipalities. Here are just a few ex.amples of Community Participation opportunities created by municipalities: ... .. assistant to the elderly with meal time and recreation/social programs; assistant to special needs child in child care setting; library resource assistant; reception area and resource library maintenance assistant; public works department ~ painting/general maintenance assistant; educational assistant - heritage museum; organization of museum archives; data. entry support; general clerical, filing and receptionist support; computer software installation; marketing/promotional assistant - recreation department working with elderly patients and rehabilitation patients - pottering and assisting therapist; renovation assistance during construction of emergency room; conservation authority - setting up a forestry management inventory data base and monitoring the trail use in the parks, .. .. .. .. ... In every case, the projects are designed to assist both the participant and the community. In many cases, Community Participation has provided important contacts that help people secure paid employment. I would ask you to give consideration to how you and your colleagues could become involved in supporting Community Participation projects in your municipality. ... J believe that the possibilities for community involvement in transforming Ontario's welfare system are limited only by our imaginations. I would be pleased to have the opportunity to meet with you and your colleagues to discuss those possibilities further. HI can be of assistance or if you are interested in a presentation at one of your Council meetings on the facts ofthe Ontario Works program, please contact my Special Assistant, at (416) 325-9014. I look forward to working with you on this important undeltaking. .. - .. -ran' Klees, M,P.P. Parliamentzry Assistant Ministry of Community and Social Services FFK:rsm /t}~~ ~c - - ..

The Team's interim report, entitled "Toronto: New City, New Opportunities", set out 41 specific recommendations for a proposed municipal government structure that strikes a balance between city-wide priorities and local needs. - "Toronto is the city that works, and the efforts of the Transition Team were geared toward ensuring that Toronto continues to work well into the millennium," said Transition Team chair Alan Tonks. - Highlights of the key recommendations in the 120-page report include: - . Services across the city should be harmonized and provided equitably. Residents should pay uniform water and electricity rates. Basic recreation programs should be free, with a user fee for enhanced programs. "One window" service centres and new technologies would improve public access. .. . The new council should consider going from two councillors elected per ward, to a single-councillor ward system for the next municipal election. This would double the number of wards from 28 to 56. Also, city council should consider changing the boundaries of the community councils to better reflect neighbourhood ties. . Strategic direction for the new city should be provided through an executive committee of the city council. This committee would be supported by a secretariat headed by the city's chief administrative officer. ~ ! r 1 r- 2 T 1 1 i I 1 I i 1 ! 1 T i 1 ! T 1 i 1 r ! T T T T I The team also recommended that the city administration be organized into four departmental "clusters." These include: urban development services, community and neighbourhood services, emergency and protective services, and finance and corporate services. Each would be headed by an executive commissioner, reporting to the chief administrative officer. The report also proposes some priorities for action by the new council on issues related to social and economic development, environment, and culture. Chair Alan Tonks said that the Transition Team welcomes public responses to its recommendations by November 1. Public meetings will be held October 24, 26 and 27 to discuss the recommendations. The Team's final report, along with a proposed budget, will be presented to the new council as soon as possible after the November 10 municipal election.

Michael Garrett was hired for the position by the Transition Team following an extensive executive search conducted by an outside firm. As CAO, Mr. Garrett will be responsible for the administration of a municipal government with more than 50,000 employees and a budget of $6.5 billion. He will officiallv take over his duties under the new council on January 1, 1998. Mr. Garrett has 25 years of government service, ranging from managing a conservation authority to serving as an assistant deputy minister in the provincial government. For the past eight years he has served as the chief administrative officer for t';e Regional Municipality of Peel. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. Transition Team hires clerk and treasurer for the new City of Toronto OCTOBER 17 - When it gets down to business in January, Toronto's new city council will be relying on the expertise of Novina Wong and Wanda Liczyk. Novina Wong has been hired by the Transition Team as the clerk of the new, unified City of Toronto. She will head a department that provides vital support to the city council's 57 members, particularly in organizing agendas and ensuring the smooth flow of council business. As well, the clerk's department is responsible for municipal elections, and it issues marriage licences, registers births and deaths, and maintains the assessment rolls. Ms. Wong moves to the clerk position in the new city from her current job as clerk for Metropolitan Toronto, where she has worked for the past 27 years. Wanda Liczyk will be the new city's treasurer. Her job will be to manage a budget of about $6.5 billion, bigger than that of some provinces. She will also have to raise funds in domestic and international markets through debentures and other financial instruments. Ms. Liczyk is a chartered accountant, who, for the past four years, has served as the commissioner of finance and treasurer for the City of North York. Since 1996 she has also held North York's most senior executive post of city administrator. In the next few months before the new council-elect takes office, both Ms. Wong and Ms. Liczyk will join the Transition Team to help in the transition to the new city. "Novina and Wanda were chosen from an extremely talented group of candidates," said Chair Alan Tonks. "The Transition Team was highly impressed by the calibre and capabilities of those who were interviewed." Interested in dipping into a well of information?

ON K9J eM5 Ministere des Richesses naturelles tlov 5 8 43 Mi '91 - October 30th. 1997 - LETTER TO: All Municipalities - - SUBJECT: MNR's Role in Fish Habitat Management under Section 35 of the federal Fisheries Act This letter is to inform you of recent action that has been taken by the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) with respect to the Ministry's role in fish habitat management. - - As you may know, Canada and Ontario share fisheries management responsibilities within Ontario. Under the Constitution, Canada holds jurisdiction over sea coast and inland fisheries and is responsible for the conservation of fish and the protection of fish habitat. For the past eight years, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) and MNR have been operating under an informal interim process for the protection and management of fish habitat. Under this process, MNR reviewed undertakings that might harmfully alter fish habitat and referred projects to DFO for authorization under Sec. 35 of the federal Fisheries Act. Canada and Ontario agreed to this shared process with no transfer of resources to Ontario until a formal arrangement could be implemented. To date, no formal process has been developed. In the meantime, MNR has been bearing the full costs of carrying out this work on behalf of the federal government. - - - Due to lack of progress on this issue, former Minister Hodgson advised the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans that "it is now appropriate for DFO to assume full responsibility for review and authorization of projects under the Fisheries Act, including those formerly conducted by MNR on DFO's behalf." ' The Deputy Minister of Natural Resources therefore advised the Deputy Minister of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans that as of September 18. MNR would no longer be providing fish habitat mitigation advice on behalf of DFO. - - MNR will continue to issue work permits under provinCial legislation. However, MNR will not review or provide site specific advice for fish habitat impacts of projects involving work in and around the water beyond the requirements of applicable provincial legislation. Additionally, MNR will no longer provide enforcement support for the fish habitat sections (Sec. 35) of the federal Fisheries Act. These actions will have implications for how MNR and our clients work together in areas dealing with fish habitat management. It is the Ministry's intention however, that the implementation of the new process be phased in with as little difficulty for clients as possible so that our clients receive good customer service. - - A package of instructions has been prepared for MNR staff. The attached "Instructions Package" has been moc:-!ed to highlight the activities that you may have involvement with. These instructions describe the -New P~ocess" MNR is following for reviewing plans and proposals for work in and around fish habitat. InCluded a-e details for handling permit applications, reviews, client inquiries and enforcement procedures. WO''':'' perr- :s under legislation administered by MNR (Lakes and Rivers Improvement Act and the Public La:-cs Ac: are still required for certain activities. In addition, DFO will need to be contacted regarding fish haJ:al :JrC':ection with respect to Section 35 of the federal Fisheries Act. Also attached are scanned ve's'ons c- :::>epartment of Fisheries and Oceans brochures which describe the federal government's role In ~ S" "3:- :31 management. A news release from September 18th is also enclosed. - - - .. .... -2- The ministry has made many efforts to resolve this issue over the past few years. The ministry has been acting on behalf of DFO by managing habitat at considerable expense to the province, even though the conservation and protection of fish habitat is clearly a federal responsibility under the federal Fisheries Act. We have been attempting for several years to negotiate an agreement with the federal government on a formal process that would allow staff to legally make habitat management decisions. .... .... The province's intention is to continue to provide effective customer service but until the federal government is prepared to formalize an agreement on respective roles and responsibilities for fish habitat management, DFO will have to resume full responsibility for the administration and enforcement of Section 35 of the federal Fisheries Act. Ontario remains open to a formal agreement on fish habitat. .... .. I will keep you informed of any new developments regarding this matter.

As a result, MNR will no longer carry out federal fisheries duties for reviewing plans and proposals for work around fish habitat. In addition, MNR will no longer enforce, on behalf of the federal government, the habitat protection provisions (Section 35) of the Fisheries Act. - - The decision to withdraw from the Interim Referral Process was made on August 15, 1997. This decision was posted on the Environmental Bill of Rights (EBR) registry on August 18. After a 30-day period, on September 18th, MNR will formally withdraw from carrying out federal duties. - Activities Affected - Withdrawal from the Interim Referral Process will result in the discontinuation of MNR involvement in the following activities: - . reviewing of plans, permits, and proposals to determine if the proposed works are likely to harmfully alter, disrupt or destroy fish habitat under Section 35 of the federal Fisheries Act; . working with proponents and consultants to design fish habitat ~mpact mitigation techniques, and providing site-specific advice; . serving as the coordinating agency when a proposed work is deemed to have a negative impact on fish habitat; . conducting site inspections solely to determine impacts of work on fish habitat; and . assisting in the development of fish habitat compensation agreements with DFO. - - - - In addition, MNR will no longer enforce Section 35 of the Fisheries Act. - MNR will continue to review plans and proposals under provincial legislation and issue work permits. However, where the proposed project is likely to harm fish habitat, applicants will be advised that before a work permit is issued, the proposed project will have to be referred to DFO for review. To provide good customer service, MNR will make this referral to DFO and will forward to DFO all available information on the propo:,ed project that will assist with the review (maps, fisheries inventory and assessment data, a description of the project, a copy of the application, etc.). MNR will provide a copy of this referral to the applicant. DFO will review the proposed project for lIS po:,sible impact on fish habitat and the measures proposed to minimize those impacts ~lI1d th;"n issue a letter of advice on ways to avoid or minimize damage, or issue an - - - - :r ... Authorization to "harmfully alter, disrupt or destroy fish habitat" under Section 35(2) of the Fisheries Act to the applicant and provide MNR with a copy. ... If the proposed project does not require a work permit but is likely to harm fish habitat, MNR will advise the proponent of their responsibility to obtain advice or Authorization from DFO on fish habitat protection. To provide good customer service, MNR will offer to refer the proposed project to DFO for review. DFO will respond directly with the proponent and copy MNR. ... ... Proposed projects that are currently underway in the Interim Referral Process (e.g. MNR providing advice on mitigation measures, negotiating habitat compensation)) will proceed as in the past with the necessary involvement by MNR staff, until further notice. To help with the transition, DFO has agreed to continue, in the short-term, with those projects that have been referred to them under the Interim Referral Process. ... ... To ensure that fish habitat continues to be protected, MNR is working with DFO to bring about a smooth transition as DFO resumes its full role in fish habitat protection. ... Implementation ... 1) For Activities Under the Public Lands Act (PLA) ... OLD PROCESS . Under the PLA, MNR is responsible for the management and disposition of Crown land. This has included the protection of fish habitat through conditions on work permits issued under the PLA. Work permits are generally required to: . construct a building on public land; . construct a trail. water crossing or road on public land; . dredge shore lands (shore lands include both Crown land and adjacent private land covered by the waters of a lake, river or stream); . fill shore lands; . remove aquatic vegetation from specified shore lands; . construct or place a structure (>15 sq. m.) on shore lands. . If the activity does not require a work permit, (e.g. floating docks), information on best management practices is provided to the applicant to ensure that no harmful alteration. disruption or destruction (HADD) of fish habitat occurs. . If a permit is required, an application is sent to the proponent. When the completed arplication is received, a site inspection is often done to document the existing habitat and determine if there is harmful alteration, disruption or destruction of fish habitat (HADDi . If HADD will occur, MNR determines if it can be mitigated. If the impact can be mitigated, the permit is issued with conditions to protect fish habitat. ... ... ... ... - ... ... ... :2 - .'" - - . If the impact cannot be mitigated, the proposal is referred to DFO for authorization. DFO decides if the project can go ahead with or without compensation. . Because of MNR' s knowledge of the site-specific habitat, MNR is often involved in designing and advising DFO on the compensation package. - NEW PROCESS - . Continue to provide guidance to the public concerning the work permit process. . If the activity does not require a work permit and is likely to harm fish habitat, MNR informs proponent that although no work permit is required, advice or Authorization under the Fisheries Act may be required from DFO. . MNR will inform applicant of the responsibility to obtain advice or authorization from DFO on fish habitat protection and will provide the applicant with two DFO brochures. . The brochures are entitled: . 1) "Fish Habitat Conservation and Protection: WHAT THE LAW REQUIRES", and . 2) Fish Habitat Conservation and Protection: GUIDELINES FOR A'ITAINING NO NET LOSS". . To provide good customer service, MNR will offer to: . Refer the proposed project to DFO for review, . Forward all available information on the proposed project that may assist with the review to DFO, . Provide the address and telephone number for contacting DFO. . DFO will respond directly to the applicant and copy MNR. . For activities which do require a work permit, as before, send out an application and instruct applicant to return completed application to MNR. . If required, MNR will conduct a site inspection to deal with land stewardship responsibilities concerning Crown land (e.g., determine if Crown land is affected). . However, MNR will not conduct site inspections solely to determine impacts of work on fish habitat. . For applications which are likely to harm fish habitat, MNR will advise the applicant that before a permit can be issued, the application will have to be referred to DFO for review. . MNR will provide the applicant with the two DFO brochures listed above which explain the steps in the authorization process. . MNR will make this referral to DFO and copy the applicant. . MNR will forward to DFO a copy of the application and all available information that may assist DFO with its review. . DFO will review the application for possible impacts on fish habitat and the measures proposed to minimize those impacts, and then issue a letter of advice on ways to avoid or minimize damage, or issue an Authorization. - - - - . - - - - - - - - ~ -' - ,'... .... . DFO will respond directly to the applicant and copy MNR. . Once DFO has provide its advice on ways to avoid or minimize damage, or Authorization, a work permit will be issued along with a copy of the letter of advice or Authorization provided by DFO. . MNR will need to review any habitat compensation requested by DFO to ensure compliance with provincial legislation, and inform proponent that an additional work permit is required. .

If the referral to DFO was initiated during the review for the location approval, MNR will offer to forward the additional detailed information on the plans and specifications for the undertaking to DFO. · Since the LRIA exempts undertakings by MNR, municipalities or Conservation Authorities (CAs) on lands owned by the Crown, municipalities or CAs, respectively, . municipalities and the CAs will need to be informed that MNR is no longer involved in the Interim Referral Process and that undertakings involving fish habitat are to be forwarded to DFO. - - - - - - - - - 3) For Having Regard to the Provincial Policy Statement (Fish Habitat Section) - OLD PROCESS - . The Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) is issued under the authority of Section 3 of the Planning Act. It provides policy direction on matters of provincial interest related to land use planning and development. The PPS identifies fish habitat as one of the 1\ atural Heritage features which is of provincial interest and should be protected from incompatible development. Policy 2.3.1 b) states that: "Development and site alteration may be permitted in: fish habitat; ...if it is has been demonstrated that there w111 be no negative impacts on the natural features or the ecological functions for which the area is identified". Also, Policy 2.3.2 states that: "Development and site alTeration may be permitted on adjacent lands to ...if it is has been demonstrated that - - - ) - r.... ~ there will be no negative impacts on the natural features or the ecological functions for which the area is identified". . MMAH provides unified provincial positions on all municipal planning matters through its one-window service. . The Natural Heritage Training Manual for Policy 2.3 of the Provincial Policy Statement identifies MNR's role in the planning process associated with fish habitat protection. . MNR provides fish habitat inventory and habitat classification information to municipalities, MMAH, CAs, proponents, etc. to assist with implementing the PPS. . MNR is developing guidelines for the collection of fish habitat information to assist in the identification, evaluation, and mapping of habitat. . MNR is developing a "Guide to Fish Habitat Protection for Small Scale Projects" to help avoid damage to fish habitat and to determine the risk of negatively impacting fish habitat. . When requested, MNR provides technical advice on all natural heritage areas and features to proponents, consultants, and municipalities through MMAH's one window planning service.

The installation and maintenance of most agricultural drains are subject to the Drainage Act which is administered by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs. The Act delegates responsibility for drainage to municipalities. . Municipal drains are constructed under the "petition drain" procedures of the Drainage Act. The municipality passes a by-law that adopts a drainage engineer's report containing plans, profiles and specifications. This report is the basis for having a municipal drain approved, constructed, and maintained. Agreement drains are constructed under an agreement between any number of landowm.:..s, under the authority of Section 2 of the Drainage Act. The municipality may not be involved in these types of drains. Private agricultural drains are constructed privately on agricultural land, they have no legal status and the municipality has no responsibility for them. Work permits under the Public Lands Act are required for works involving dredging and filling of shore lands. A work permit is not required under the Lakes and Rivers Improvement Act for the installation or maintenance of a drain, subject to the Drainage Act. Through the Interim Referral Process, MNR provides advice on protecting fish habitat . (appropriate timing, sediment and erosion control measures, etc.), and where required, on seeking authorization under Section 35(2) of the Fisheries Act. . . "Fisheries Guidelines for the Review of Agricultural Drain Maintenance . Proposals" is used to streamline this process and to help avoid damage to fish habitat. . The Environmental Checklist is used to screen low risk impacts to fish habitat so that these projects can be dealt with quickly. . MNR attends "on site" meetings to provide this advice. . MNR reviews the preliminary and final engineer's report to provide advice on protecting fish habitat. M.:."'-"R provides available fish habitat inventory and habitat classification information to municipalities to assist with determining the risk of negatively impacting fish habitat. In Huron and Perth Counties, DFO has provided a Class Authorization procedure that allows routine drain maintenance work to proceed where the risk to fish habitat is the least. and without MNR or DFO reviewing them. The procedure classifies drains according to their sensitivity. The municipality follows standard conditions specified in the Class Authorization and is required to notify MNR of the location of the work and the Class being followed for compliance checks. 7 r ... ... NEW PROCESS . If a work permit is not required, MNR informs applicant (municipality) that although no work permit is required, authorization under the Fisheries Act may be required from DFO. . MNR will inform applicant of their responsibility to obtain advice or authorization from DFO on fish habitat protection and will provide the proponent with the two DFO brochures (refer to Activities under Public Lands Act). . To provide customer service, MNR will offer to forward the file to DFO and will provide the address and telephone number for contacting DFO. . . DFO will respond directly to the applicant. . If a work permit is required, and if the site contains fish habitat, advise the applicant that MNR will need to seek DFO advice regarding the protection of fish habitat before a work permit can be issued (refer to Section on the Public Lands Act). . Adhere to the "Fisheries Guidelines for the Review of Agricultural Drain Maintenance Proposals" and to the Environmental Checklist, but advise municipalities that the Interim Referral Process no longer applies and that they should now seek DFO advice regarding mitigation plans and need for authorizations. · Adhere to the Class Authorizations for Huron and Perth Counties, except that MNR will no longer do compliance checks. This will now be the responsibility of DFO. · Continue to provide available fish inventory and habitat mapping information to municipalities to assist them in identifying sensitive fish habitat. . MNR will no longer attend "on site" meetings solely for the purpose of providing advice on protecting fish habitat. · MNR will no longer review the engineer's report solely for the purpose of providing advice on protecting fish habitat. ... ... ... ... ...

The Department will request information from you concerning the nature of your proposed project, its possible impact on fish habitat and the measures you propose 10 minimize those impacts. If the Departmenl believes that the impact of your projecl on fish habitats might be reduced by cenain measures, il will advise you in writing, on ways to avoid or minimize damage. These measures might include relocating or redesigning your project - or steps to mitigate the harmful impacts on habitat. You are within your legal rights to go ahead with your project without getting this Authorization. Bul if you do, and if you harm fish habital you are liable to prosecution under the Fisheries Act. In some situations it may be impossible 10 protect fish habitat by changes in project design or by other measures to lessen harmful impacts.

REPORT #97-F-74 UPDATE ON WHO DOES WHAT INITIATIVE - BUDGET PLANNING PACKAGE 2. REPORT: 1.0 ... BACKGROUND .... . The Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing released a package of Who Does What Budget Planning Worksheets to all Municipal Clerks and C.A.O. 's in Ontario which was received by the Regional Clerk on October 8, 1997. .. . This package was to represent the "next level of detail" following the August 6, 1997 Ministry release of financial information for upper tier municipalities (i.e. the pooled estimates for the GTA Regions). According to the Ministry, this package will be the basis for discussion at a future unspecified meeting between Regional, Municipal and Provincial staff .. ... .. 2.0 HIGHLIGHTS . This Provincial package fails to deliver the following: ... i) any further financial or statistical information to assist the Region in determining the 1998 budget requisitions for the downloaded responsibilities; ... ii) the final impact upon property taxpayers related to the downloading and the new Provincial education tax policies and funding; or Hi) any analysis of the impacts related to the Provincial initiative to pool social ... services and GO Transit costs across the GT A (ie. pooled vs. non-pooled). . It is still unknown what the impacts will be from the Provincial assumption of 50% of the residential education property taxes. The new Provincial education tax policies and funding remain unknown, but significant factors in determining any final tax impacts to Durham property taxpayers. ... ... . Repeated attempts by staff to obtain further detail from the Province have been unsuccessful. ... 3.0 ESTIMATED IMPACT ON REGION OF DURHAM .. . There is no change to the Provincially-estimated impact of $35.3 million to $38.5 million for Regional property taxpayers as reported by the Commissioner of Finance in Report #97-F-60. As cautioned in Report #97-F-60, the Provincial estimate of $17.9 to $21. 1 million fails to include the impacts of the elimination of the Municipal Support Grant and the transfer of Provincial highways which increase the Regional General Levy impact by approximately $35.3 million to $38.5 million. .. ... . The Province cautioned municipalities that the August 6, 1997 estimates should not be used for impact analysis due to various concerns by the Province regarding the data. This October 6, 1997 Provincial WDW Budget Planning package further warns that further financial information will be made available "as it is developed". .. ... 1 1 0 lliII - - REPORT tl97.F-74 UPDATE ON WHO DOES WHAT INITIATIVE - BUDGET PLANNING PACKAGE J. REPORT/cont'd ... 4.0 4.1 - - - - - - - - ... - 4.2 - - - - - ... FINAL IMPACT ON PROPERTY TAXPAYERS CAN NOT BE DETERMINED Provincial Qualifiers Regarding the WDW Budget Worksheet Package . The Province identifies several decisions which are "being finalized for a number of reassessment and tax policy issues", including the following: "~ Payments-in-lieu - the amount and how PILs will be shared; ~ pipelines - assessment rate structure needs to be updated to recognize current value; ~ linear properties - acreage rate program to be determined; ~ graduated tax rates for commercial class; ~ provincial tax ratio ranges; ~ formalized parameters for subclasses; ~ working definition of what constitutes an assessment related change, e.g. shifts created as a result of transition ratios; ~ final tax rates for residential education property taxes to let municipalities know exactly how much of the $2.5 billion province-wide residential education tax room is available to them; ~ final tax structure and rates for commercial and industrial education property taxes. " . The impact of these outstanding decisions has the potential to further increase the estimated burden to be placed upon the property taxpayers in Durham Region. For example, if the residential education tax relief is less than indicated in the August 6, 1997 Provincial announcement, then the total property tax requirements will increase - but staff can not determine the magnitude without the education tax information from the Province. Further Concerns with the WDW Budget Worksheet Package . Staff remain concerned that the full costs of the downloaded services/programs are not reflected in these Provincial estimates. For example, the estimates may not include the administrative costs such as those identified in the report on the downloading of Social Housing (Report #97-J-IO). . As a further example of the inaccuracy of the data, the estimated social housing data contains a grossly inaccurate unit count for Clarington (i.e. Provincial estimate of 1,362 as compared to Regional estimate of 408). . The area municipalities are also indicating some discrepancies between their estimates for managed forest and farm tax rebate, library grants, etc. and the Provincial estimates. 1 1 .. REPORT U97-F-74 UPDATE ON WHO DOES WHAT INITIATIVE - BUDGET PLANNING PACKAGE 4. .. REPORT/cont'd 4.3 Outstanding Information Requirements and Regional Tasks ... . In order to fully determine the potential impacts, the Region requires various detailed financial information including basic financial data such as: .. cost breakdowns (salaries, rents, etc.) for current Provincial services (eg. Assessment Office); pre and post GT A-pooling costs; Provincial program and administration costs; outstanding liabilities (eg. mortgage; insurance and otherwise); agreements with existing service delivery agents; and, audited financial statements of current service providers (eg. Social Housing). .. .. .. · The Region also requires various statistical information such as: market value rental revenue & social housing unit counts; Family Benefit Allowance and Disability caseload; and, ambulance dispatch services. ... .. · The Region is also obligated to undertake certain actions such as: ... begin negotiations to transfer the Assessment function; formalize process for assumption of land ambulance service delivery; participate in reform of social housing programs; and, establish interim billing procedures. ... . As well, the Region must review its administrative structure & functions (eg. risk management, insurance, financial reporting) to ensure that the optimal accountability and efficiencies will be obtained. .. .. 5.0 CONCLUSION . The Honourable AI Leach's recent statement that the WDW Budget Package would "help [municipalities] plan your 1998 budget" demonstrates the complete lack of understanding by the Province of the municipal budget process. This package fails to deliver any further information or clarify prior Provincial estimates. Furthermore, many of the critical factors related to the residential education tax relief and assessment/tax policy impacts remain unknown. .. - .. . Another critical factor is the steadily decreasing time frame available to the municipal sector, given the forthcoming municipal election. This Regional Council has only one meeting left in its mandate while the new Regional Council has only one meeting scheduled prior to January 1, 1998, the effective date for many of the downloading initiatives. ..... ... 1 1 2 ... - REPORT #97-F-7"" UPDATE ON WHO DOES WHAT INITIATIVE - BUDGET PLANNING PACKAGE s. - REPORT/cont'd - 5.0 CONCLUSION/cont'd - . The Regional Finance Department will continue to coordinate the ongoing assessment/tax policy analysis being undertaken with the area municipal staff as well as WOW impact analysis being undertaken by the Regional Departments. - . The Regional Finance Department will also continue to request financial and statistical information required by Regional Council should negotiations regarding the new Regional responsibilities be undertaken in the new term. .. - ~-?--'" , R.J.

Clerk, Municipality of Clarlngton 40 Temperance Street Bowmanville, Ontario L 1 C 3 A6 Dear Ms Barrie: The Honourable Norman W. Sterling, Minister of the Environment has asked that I respond on his behalf to your letter of September 16, 1997 in which Council endorsed a request for a public inquiry into the Plastimet fire. . The Minister's position has not changed with regard to the issue of holding a public inquiry. The issues of concern deal primarily with municipal responsibilities such as fire code compliance, and health matters which are under the auspices of the Medical Officer of Health. The Minister has repeatedly said that it would be a costly exercise and there is no information that a public inquiry could produce, that is not currently available. The Minister believes that Ontario taxpayers would prefer that we focus our efforts on improving environmental protection and on the cleanup of the fire site. Should the municipality choose to hold a public investigation, complete co-operation will be extended by this Ministry. Under Section 100 of the Municipal Act, or Section 138 of the Regional Municipalities Act, a municipal or a regional council may request a judge to conduct an investigation. A judge has powers to compel evidence, summon witnesses and control the proceedings. With respect to this Ministry's involvement, staff attended the site of the fire quickly, and air monitoring began before midnight on July 9th. Numerous tests on air, water, vegetation and soil were conducted and results confirmed that there was no threat to health. Soil and vegetation sampling was undertaken as soon as possible. All the test results were shared with the Medical Officer of Health. In the aftermath of the fire, measures were quickly undertaken to ensure effective dust suppression, surface-water management and 24-hour security at the site. ... \,...... ...c, ... -2- We are confident that Ministry staff reacted quickly and appropriately. Indeed, the Acting Mayor, His Worship David Wilson, subsequently commended the ministry's response to the emergency, especially the local ministry office in Hamilton. .. ... Concerns about the short and long-term health effects of the fire have been, and continue to be, addressed by the Hamilton-Wentworth Regional Health Department. Within days after the fire, all off site substances tested had returned to concentrations within or close to the normal urban background range in all media - air, water, off-site soil and vegetation - except where historical soil and storm-sewer water contamination existed. ... .. The Plastimet Inc. site did not "slip through the cracks". In fact, ministry inspections of this facility date back to 1990, before the site was abandoned by its previous owner Usarco. The site's environmental assessment was undertaken in 1996, and the ministry received a final report on the property in January, 1997. The ministry did not pursue mandatory abatement because there was no discharge of contaminants off-site. This is consistent with provisions under the Environmental Protection Act. .. .. The ministry has made a concerted effort not only to deal with the environmental problems at the site, but to keep local residents and other interested stakeholders informed about our activities. Within days of the fire, we set up an information trailer in the neighbourhood and disseminated news and test data as it became available. A Public Liaison Committee has been formed to keep residents, local politicians and the media up-to-date on the site cleanup and other matters. This ministry has set aside $40,000 to help the Public Liaison Committee with the costs of an independent expert evaluation of the ministry's tests and the site cleanup. The Regional Health Department has been equally active in responding to concerns about the health effects of the fire. .. ... ... To date, the ministry has accomplished over 8,500 tests on more than 270 samples collected from more than 100 sites in the area. Other tests have been conducted by regional officials and by independent sources including those conducted by a resident group. The test results have been released. While we determined that the Plastimet site itself is contaminated, there is no evidence to indicate that fallout from the fire posed an environmental or health hazard throughout Hamilton. ... .. .. On September 17, 1997, the ministry took control of the site when Plastimet Inc. and the site owner were in breach of the terms of the Field Orders for site containment and the clean up of the fire debris. The cleanup offire related debris and surficial contaminants is now substantially completed. This is a significant financial commitment on behalf of the province, and it shows that remediation of the site is one of our top priorities. .... .. At the centre of the call for a public inquiry are questions relating to how and why the fire started in the first place, as well as the long-term health effects on persons exposed to the fire. These are issues which relate to municipal authorities, namely the Fire Department and the Medical Officer of Health ... .. .. - - - - - - .. - - - - - - - - - - - - . \~ -3- The City of Hamilton is undertaking a debriefing exercise involving various regional departments and outside agencies which responded to the Plastimet emergency. For our part, the ministry has conducted an internal review of its involvement and actions as they relate to this incident, and our Investigations and Enforcement Branch are conducting an investigation into the Plastimet Inc. operations. Further, the Honourable Robert Runciman, Solicitor General, has requested a review of the fire through the Ontario Fire Marshal's Office. Copies of the Minist.ys report "Internal Review of the Ministry of Environment and Energy Response to the Plastimet Fire" and the Ministry's technical report" Plastimet Inc. Fire" are available at the Ministry's Public Information Centre, telephone (416) 325-4000 from Toronto or 1-800-565-4923 elsewhere in the Province. -;~~ l H. M.

MONTHLY REPORT CARDS HELP MEASURE PERFORMANCE OF ONTARIO HYDRO'S NUCLEAR OPERATIONS .. Ontario Hydro today released the first in a series of monthly report cards which benchmark the performance of its nuclear operations against nuclear industry standards and measure program effectiveness on a number of key - indicators, emphasizing public and employee safety and environmental and production performance. "Our goal is to run our nuclear generating stations at world-class levels, and these report cards provide an accurate and _ proven way of monitoring our performance," said G. Carl Andognini, Ontario Hydro Executive Vice-President and Chief Nuclear Officer. "With them, we can see at a glance just how well we are doing and where improvements and/or changes need to be _ made," Andognini said, adding that "performance liste.<! as worse than target on the cards is not an indication that reactors are unsafe. "Safety is our number one priority. We do not need to wait for these report cards to be issued to make safety decisions. - If at any time, station management, our employees, or the Atomic Energy Control Board (AECB) feel public or employee safety is at risk, then corrective actions will be put in place immediately. We have done this before and we will not hesitate to do it again," Andognini said. "The people of Ontario, particularly those living and working near our three nuclear facilities, should have access to as much information as possible about their performance and operations," Andognini said. _ "\\'hen I came to Ontario Hydro to head the corporation's nuclear program, I made a commitment that we would be open and accessible to the public. That commitment has not wavered, and these monthly report cards - one highlighting OntaJ.;o Hydro Nuclear's over-all corporate performance, plus specific site-based ones for each of our three stations- _ are part of an integrated process to ensure greater public access to information about our nuclear operations," .-\:1dognini added.. The report cards. which measure such things as production, radiation exposure, safety issues and other performance indicators. will be i$sued near the end of each month and made available to a wide range of groups, including: the ,-\ECB; the Ministry of Environment; the Ministry of Energy. Science and Technology; the Ministry of Finance; O:1tarlO Hydro's b03.rd of directors; employees of Ontario Hydro's nuclear operations; the communities in which r.'~c1ear generating $tations are located; and the media.

For Immediate Attention .. .. .. - - .. .. - - - .. - - - Important Regulations Accompany Proclamation of Bill 1 05 ISSUE: Bfll 105~ Police Services Amendment Ac~ 1997 Is proclaimed. TWo key regulations on costing of OPP Services and a code of conduct for police servtces boards accompanied the Bill. FACTS: Bill 105, Police Se1Vfces Amendment Act, 1997 was prodalmed on November 27, 1997. It was accompanied by two Regulations dealing with OPP Costs (Ontario Regulation 420/97) and a code of conduct for police services board members (Ontario Regulation 421/97). Bill 105 gives municipalities considerable more control over police services, from financing and representation on pollee services boards, to options for delivering police services. The Bill requires that all municipalities in Ontario, effective January 1, 1998, must pay for policing. Municipalities have several options on how to provide policing, Including partnering with a neighbouring police force, establishing their own force, or continuing to have the OPP provide policing services to the municipality at a cost. For municipalities who choose to have policing provided by the OPP, the Regulation provides details on i) what the opp costs will include, II) the billing process, and, iii) how the costs will be. recovered. It does not provide any estimates or costs on average households. The latest information on this was provided to municipalities in October. Highlights of Ontario Regulation 420/97, CPP Costing: costs for which municipalities are responsible include direct costs of policing (e.g. actual salaries, benefits of police personnel, costs of maintaining the detachment serving the municipality) and operational support cosls (e.g. grooortionate amount of such things as recruiting and training, telecommunications costs, equipment costs); cost estimates of OPP services will be provided to municipalities using OPP services before the beginning of the calendar year in which the services are provided; if OPP services are commenced during a calendar year, cost estimates for the remainder of the year will be provided as soon as possible; payments for OPP services will be made to the Minister of Finance in quarterly instalments (March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31); Interest will be charged on late payments at the bank rate: where the cosl estimates exceed actual estimates these circumstances will be credited or charged, respectively, in the first quarter of the next year; where OPP services are no longer provided in the first quarter of the next year, any amounts owing to el~r)er the Province or the municipality shall be paid by March 31~1 of the next year.

All resolutions endorsed at the Annual Conference or at the National Board of DirectorS and which require action from the Government of Canada, shall be submitted to the appropriate minister, department or agency for response. - It is therefore important that resolutions be carefully worded so that FCM is directed to take the appropriate action and that the proper message is conveyed. FCM does not wish to receive resolutions which pit one municipality aoainst another. ... - Members submitting resolutions reoarding Community Safety and Crime Prevention matters are advised to focus on the "principle" of the issue beina addressed and avoid attempts to re- word the criminal code. .. A national vocabulary should be used at all times when draftina resolutions. Local references mav detract from the national significance of resolutions CONSTRUCTION OF RESOLUTIONS - All members are urged to observe the fOllowing guidelines when preparing resolutions for submission to FCM: - a) FCM will take a stand only on issues which are clear1y of national municipal interest and which fall within the jurisdiction of the federal government, the provincial and territorial governments acting at the inteiprovinciallevel, or FCM itself. Indirect municipal issues and locaVregional issues will not be supported by major research and k>bbying activity, unless otherwise directed by the Annual Conference or by FCM National Board of Directors. - ... b) The descriptive clauses (WHEREAS...) should clear1y and briefly set out the reasons for the resolution. If the sponsor believes that the rationale cannot be explained in a few preliminary clauses, the problem should be more fully stated in supporting documentation. .. - c) The operative clause (BE IT RESOLVED...) must clear1y set out its intent stating a specific proposal for any action which the sponsor wishes FCM to take. (i.e. BE IT RESOLVED that FCM urge/endorse/petition...) The wording should be clear and .. - .. "'.. ~\ ,." .... brief. Generalization should be avoided. d) Backoround infonnation should be submitted with the resolution in most cases; When a resolution is not self explanatory and when adequate information is not received, FCM staff may return the resolution to the sponsor with a request for additional information or clarification. .... .... e) Proof of endorsement by the sponsoring council must accompany the resolution. .... CATEGORIZATION OF RESOLUTIONS ... The Standing Committee on Policies and Resolutions will review the resolutions received and categorize them as follows: ... category A: category B: category C: category ot: category [)2: National municipal Issues Local/regional municipal issues Issues not within municipal jurisdiction Matters dealt with by FCM in the previOUS three years and that are in accordance with FCM policy Matters dealt with by FCM in the previous three years and that are NOT in accordance with FCM policy ... ... ...

Barrie Clerk Municipality of Clarington 40 Temperance Street Bowrnanville, Ontario L1C 3A6 - - Dear Ms. Barrie: - Thank you for your letter of October 22, 1997, and resolution passed by the Council of the Municipality of Clarington, concerning anti-personnel (AP) mines. I appreciate your kind words of support for Canada's position on this issue. .. ... As you may know, on September 18, 1997, Canada, along with 88 other countries, formally endorsed the "Convention on the Prohibition of the Use, Production, Stockpiling and Transfer of Anti-personnel Mines and on their Destruction" in Oslo, Norway. The official signing of the treaty will take place at a ministerial meeting to be held from December 2 to 4, 1997, in Ottawa. This treaty will establish a clear and unambiguous legally-binding ban on all AP mines, with no exceptions. To continue its leadership and illustrate its commitment to a global ban, Canada has also announced plans to eliminate its remaining stockpile of AP mines prior to the signing of the treaty. - - - - - We are extremely pleased with the overwhelming support for what has become known as the "Ottawa Process". Since I first called for an AP mines treaty in October 1996, this Canadian initiative has evolved from a bold idea to become the focus of a large and growing international consensus. The Ottawa Conference in December will also be the platform from which we expect to launch the "Ottawa Process II", an international agenda for action to move us collectively toward the universalization of the treaty, and the development of substantial new international programs for de-mining and victim assistance and rehabilitation. - - - . . . /2 .. , ... " MIl -2- ... From 1993 to 1997, through the Canadian International Development Agency, Canada has contributed over $11 million to mine-related activities in Afghanistan, Cambodia, Angola, Laos, and Bosnia- Herzegovina. Canada also provides funding to the International Committee of the Red Cross for medical treatment, including rehabilitation and artificial limbs for landmine victims. ... MIl For further information on this issue, I enclose a copy of the latest edition of the newsletter entitled AP Mine Ban: Progress Report, along with my September 25, 1997, address to the United Nations General Assembly in New York, and my November 3, 1997, address to the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and International Trade.

The Lishman Factory can only. bring good things to the town of 'Orono. We need growth in our town and this factory is the FIRST step to help our town through: 1. Job Creation 2. Revenue through taxes 3. People will shop in town and by our PRODUCTS 4. Future land development - through housing development and hopefully other business will also come to Orono. 5. Revenue - to assist in putting in sewers which our town desperately needs. Council must support the TOWN OF ORONO and allow us to grow, or we will certainly face great hardships in the next few years. As a business owner in Orono, I strongly support this proposed change.

November, 1997 Dear Mayor Hamre and Councillors, Congratulations on your success in the recent elections. As you may be aware, the Oshawa-Durham Symphony Orchestra has been in existence for 40 years. It was originally known as the Oshawa Symphony Association but the name was changed some years ago to more correctly reflect the community we serve. Our Mission Statement includes the requirement to bring fine orchestral music to residents of the Region of Durham. The Orchestra is of a very high standard. Our present Music Director/Conductor, Marco Parisotto, is internationally recognized, having recently won the 45th. International Besancon Conductors' Competition in France. He has brought together wonderful musicians, both professional and amateur, to raise the quality of the ODSO to its present high level. In the same way as many other arts organizations, however, regardless of the excellence of the performances, revenue from ticket sales is far less than what is needed to cover the costs. Each concert incurs direct costs of at least $15,000, and other on-going expenses brings our annual budget to over $100,000. The City of Oshawa has been generous over the past years in granting us an annual amount to assist our endeavours. The current grant is $15,000. We also receive a much smaller grant from the Ontario Arts Council. We have a small number of corporate sponsors and donors as well as generous individual donors. We depend on our own fund-raising activities for the balance, including box office sales. This latter has been less than $10,000 in recent years, although we are hoping to better that this year. .. Due to these circumstances, we are approaching several municipalities in Durham Region to ask whether you will consider making a small annual grant to the ODSO to assist us to continue to fulfill our mandate. ... .. Access to the arts is, we believe, an essential aspect of any community. This does not mean that we expect all citizens to enjoy classical music but the fact of it being available within reasonable distance and at a reasonable cost, at least provides the opportunity to all to experience it. Without that experience, many people, young people included, are unlikely to discover the magic, the beauty and the excitement of being at a live orchestral concert and will miss out on what can add another wonderful dimension to their lives. .. .. ... Please help us to maintain this feature of our Durham Region. ... We will be pleased to provide further information as required. Thank you for your consideration of this request. .. Yours truly, .." ~~*w I .. .. David I. Kentish Chairman of the Board. home tel./fax. (905) 683-4642 56 Gregory Rd. Ajax, ON LIS 3B4 r.'-D,'s';rRl8u T'ON-."~ , CUR" _____ I ACK.

The Office of Privatization has commenced the business and financial review of the highway in conjunction with its outside advisor, RBC Dominion Securities, and the Ministry of Transportation. The review will look at alternative financing options for Highway 407 Central as well as options available to the government for the financing, building, and operation of the Highway 407 West Extension and the Highway 407 East Partial Extension. A full description of Highway 407, the status of construction and the options being considered can be found in the attached Information Sheet. .. .. .. I am inviting related officials to express their opinions on the options under review. As an elected head of council, your views are important to our process to help ensure that we conduct a comprehensive review. You are encouraged and welcome to comment either in writing, or, if it's preferable, through a meeting with me. .. I hope you take this opportunity to provide input on the options under review.

Highway 407 - Description Highway 407 is a key component of Ontario's highway network. As currently planned, it will extend 154 kilometres from the QEW in west Burlington, across the top of Metropolitan Toronto, to the junction of Highways 35/115 in Clarington. Highway 407 Central is the 69-kilometre section from Highway 403 in Mississauga'to Markham Road (Highway 48) in Markham. Phase I of 407 Central, the 36 kilometres of six-lane, divided highway between Highways 410 and 404, opened to traffic on June 7, 1997. Phase II of 407 Central, the extension to Highway 403 in the west and to Markham Road (Highway 48) in the east, is expected to be completed by the end of 1998. .. .. ... II1IlI ... .. .... .. .. .. .... "'" ... .. .. ., .. .Ill .. - - 2 Highway 407 West is the planned 24-kilometre extension of Highway 407 Central from Mississauga to Burlington. The Highway 407 East Partial Extension would be a 15- kilometre extension of Highway 407, east from Markham Road to the Brock Road/Highway 7 area in north Pickering. - ... - The completed 407 Central, 407 West and 407 East Partial Extension would form a corridor connecting the GTA to Hamilton, the Niagara Peninsula, and U.S. markets. For a pictorial depiction of the Highway, see the map found below for further details. - Privatization Options Under Consideration Five options from the Ontario Privatization Review Framework have been identified as being the most relevant to the Highway 407. These are: retain and improve; build- own-operate-transfer, minority interest; not-for-profit; and equity divestiture. - - - .. - ... - ... .. .. - ... - . Retain and I~j)rove - Under this option, the Province would pay for the construction of 407 West and/or East Partial Extension and own and operate the Highway. The Provinc.~ would raise the necessary financing and bear all the risk and rewards of owning and operating a toll road. As an alternative, the Province could continue to own and operate the Highway, but seek to raise financing, to the extent possible, on a basis that would be supported only by the revenues of the Highway and not by the credit of the Province. . Build-Own-Operate-Transfer - The Province would enter into an agreement with the private sector to design and build the extensions and to own the Highway for a period of time (e.g. 30 to 35 years) intended to allow the owner to earn a reasonable return on their investment. At the end of the concession period, the ownership and operation of the Highway would be transferred back to the Province. . Minority Interest - The Province would sell a majority interest in the Highway to the private sector, and continue to share in the Highway's risks and rewards. . N at-for-Profit - The project would be sold to a not-for-profit entity managed by a board of directors composed of representatives such as users, municipalities and the Province. . Equity Divestiture - The Province would sell its interest in the project to the private sector. This sale could occur in one or more stages. The Province would no longer be exposed to the risks and rewards associated with the construction, financing and operation of the Highway to the extent its interest is sold. The Province would still playa role in regulating the road and its use in order to satisfy public policy objectives.

Dear Mayor, Councilors arid residents, - The Quebec Committee for Canada (QCC), the largest non-partisan grassroots unity group in Canada, would like to thank everyone for making our 'Staying Canadian Resolutions' a resounding success. Up to now, over 4 million proud Canadians have supported the right of federalist municipalities and their residents in Quebec to remain Canadian, now and forever. On this, the eve of the 2nd anniversaIy of the referendum, the QCC is launching a new initiative. Recently in Calgary, nine Premiers (Quebec's Premier Bouchard refused to attend) got the unity debate going and proposed 7 statements of principle (see attached). While the QCC applauds this effort, we believe it is now time for the people of Canada to speak out on the issue of Canadian unity. As well, Canadians from coast to coast must begin the process of dialogue. We believe that Quebecers would most appreciate a positive message of friendship and unity from their fellow Canadians. In turn, Quebecers need to send a positive message of belonging to the rest of Canada In light of this. the QCC in association with other prominent Canadian unity groups, wishes to introduce the following 'People's Resolution for a United Canada' (see attached). This resolution has 3 fundamental objectives; - - .. ... - 1, It would initiate and encourage at the municipal level, the level of government closest to the people, Canada-wide grassroots consultations regarding the future of our country. ... 2. It would offer all Canadians the opportunity to send a positive message of friendship and unity to their fellow citizens across the country. - 3. I t would demand, on behalf of the people, that the Government of Canada and all provincial legislatures ensure the continuance of a UNITED CANADA and that any future constitutional negotiations should not lead to the breakup of our country. - To date, very few Canadians have had the opportunity to speak out on the issue of unity. As well, the QCC finds it regrettable that the present government in Quebec will not be consulting Quebecers on this important matter. Therefore, we caU upon every Canadian municipality across the country to consult their residents on the future of their country and, and as a good\\ill gesture, to adopt this 'People's Resolution for a United Canada'. Consultations could take the form oftownhall meetings, maHouts, ads in your local paper, phone-in message centres etc. ON BEHALF OF OUR COUNTRY, WE URGE YOU TO ACT NOW! Be a part of the team, TEAM CANADA! Together we will make a difference. - - - Thank~ .-= Maurice illS iikovka, Robert and Myra Smith Team Canada Chairpersons Gary D.

The following is an exact reproduction of what was proposed. ... I. All Canadians are equal and have rights protected by law. - 2. All provinces, while diverse in their characteristics, have equality of status. - 3. Canada is graced by diversity, tolerance, compassion and an equality of opportunity that is \\ithout rival in the world. ... 4. Canada's gift of diversity includes Aboriginal peoples and cultures, the vitality of the English and French languages and a multicultural citizenry drawn from all parts of the world. - ... 5. In Canada's federal system, where respect for diversity and equality underlies unity, the unique character of Quebec society, including its French speaking majority, its culture and its tradition of civil law, is fundamental to the well being of Canada. Consequently, the legislature and the Government of Quebec have a role to protect and develop the unique character of Quebec society within Canada. .. ... 6. If any future constitutional amendment confers powers on one province, these powers must be available to all provinces. .. 7. Canada is a federal system where federal, provincial and territorial governments work in partnership while respecting each other's jurisdictions. Canadians want their governments to work cooperatively and with flexibility to ensure the efficiency and effectiveness of the federation. Canadians want their governments to work together particularly in the delivery of their social programs. Provinces and territories renew their comminnent to work in partnership with the Government of Canada to best serve the needs of Canadians. - - ... f .' {#~~ >/; - - .

COUNCIL DIRECTION D - 8 .~NDA .. - On Tuesday, November 11,1997 a 15 year old boy tragically lost his life while crossing King St. (Highway 2) near Darlington BlvdJVarcoe Rd. in Courtice. Although he was a student at Courtiee Secondary, this place is in the middle of the residential areas served by S.T. Worden Public School, and students of this school cross here every day. Also, this stretch of King St. is increasingly busy as the number of new homes on either side of the street grows. Residents of the area know how often pedestrians of all ages cross King St. at this location, since there is no other place to cross within hundreds of yards in either direction. This tragedy will be repeated unless action is taken NOW to install traffic lights and crosswalk markings. I am therefore petitioning the appropriate government departments to make this intersection safer for all the residents of Courtice immediately. .. - .. - ..

Re: Durham Region Official Plan Amendment Application by Joe Domitrovic 3872 Courtlce Road North, Courtice .. We are writing in response to all the recent newspaper articles, petitions, and numerous times this item has been brought to the attention of council. - This item has been brought back to council again and again and again, and the same decision has been made again and again. The Planning Department has made their recommendation and Council has made their decision not to allow the rezoning of this property. How many times does it take? .. .. We are peaceful people and have never caused problems or concerns for anyone at anytime. Mr. Domltrovlc has been told nicely and fairly that this zoning will effect our homes, our neighbourhood, our families, and the safety of our families. We are not the squeaky wheel, but apparently enough is enough. .. Our family has been here for 47 years and have paid taxes to this municipality for 47 years We have been law abiding citizens and have supported this community for 47 years, .. The corner of Courtice and Pebblestone Road Is a main throughway for children school buses A school is directly to the south of Mr. Domitrovic's property. ... The traffic here is already dangerous, and the traffic at all hours of the day is already excess ive In a quiet residential area. - ... ... ... - 2 - ... Where are the street lights? Where are the sidewalks? How will the children and families walk on the street? This is a residential agricultural area, not an industrial area. ... If you allow this rezoning, then I expect all my neighbours have the right to ask for rezoning and those people who have businesses and are appropriately zoned in Industrial areas have every right to close their shops and set up their business in their homes. ... ... What compensation will this municipality compensate for the values of our properties? Who will guarantee us that our water will not be effected? We fully expect the municipality, whom we have paid taxes to for 47 years, will be responsible. ... The school, church, and daycare located directly to the south of Mr. Domitrovic has had bottled water the full of last year. Did the taxpayer pay for this bottled water through our education taxes? ... This petition that Mr. Domitrovic has which includes 2,000 signatures. Can you tell me how many are within this community? This petition was very vague and did not detail any information as to why he has been denied or any information detailing he is operating in an agricultural/residential area, which is on septic and well water, How many of the people that signed this petition actually know that Mr. Domitrovic is wishing to obtain a rezoning or this property and that their children, grandchildren, family, and friends, may be one of the ones effected by the possible contamination of water. ... ... ... The actual residents who live in this community have signed a petition against this rezoning. ... The Durham Region has denied the application, based on sound planning principles, the Planning Staff of this Municipality has recommended denial, based on sound planning principles. ... This rezoning does not conform with the official plan that had four years of public impact and consultat1on. This rezoning has been denied by each /eve/of government. Who do you turn to, to be sure that our rights are protected. - ... This property is on septic and well, and all the properties in the area are on septic and well. Who Wp! pay for and install water and sewer based on this rezoning? Who will pay for a chem ical content test on our drinking water on a regular basis and make sure our hea~h is :'lot effected? ... - ~ .. - .. - 3 - .. ..

It is clearly a measure of the confidence of our community in your ability to lead that has resulted in a third tenn. It is hoped our town will continue to prosper under your leadership and guidance. And now for the problem. Perhaps you or one of your staff could enlighten me as to the town's policy on sidewalk ploughing. I'm not sure I understand or appreciate the significance of a plough opera1ing on only portions of the sidewalks. Let me explain. On Waverley Road, the plough travels north on the west sidewalk. It passes by several houses which face the elementaIy school and ball diamond. It reaches my house and then exits the sidewalk via my driveway. The plough then travels north along the street for some distance before turning into another driveway and continuing along the sidewalk. And finally, it leaves the sidewalk through another driveway and re-enters the street I haven't followed the plough's entire route, but I can only asswne this is standard practice. Why? I don't really care that it uses my driveway, but why leave the sidewalk at aU? If the plough must continue north along Waverley, why not simply have the driver stay on the sidewalk all the way to Lawrence Gate? Is it a question of only ploughing in front of homes where senior citizens' live? The disabled? Those who pay for the service? I would really appreciate some answers. Finally, if the plough driver is going to continue passing in front of my house, at least train him to drive a straight line. I really don't appreciate having to pick large chunks of sod from my driveway, replace them on the edge of my lawn and then have ~~~'-~"~J :';10r~ off a few days later. ~ Q -~, . I await your response. "_ j ~ii\ -- . ............- - '_ c -.;.. Sy { Sincerely, "~'7/ /(~ / ~;~p:~;~ Rober1 Paxton -~-- . ~ 'ilL ~; ::, IV. I .,r; --r.-/: - . /) V~- i i.ZUJ./>-/,..I-LIJ> .

This is an accomplishment which carries with it the challenge of serving as a member of "the fIrst order of government" -- the government closest to the people. Recently, I have sent a series ofletters to all municipal councils in Canada and letters to each of the Premiers related to national unity and "the Calgary declaration" as well as the role of municipalities and their leaders in this debate. If you would care for a copy of my letter to the Premiers or a copy of the "Framework" and "Guidelines," please contact me at the address above or at the phone numbers below. Enclosed \\ith this are three sample resolutions for your consideration and possible use. Resolution #1 attempts to set out what Canada is, who Canadians are and what they care about. Resolution #2 takes the principle that the government closest to the people and capable should carry out programs and services for the people to whom it is responsible -- also known as "the principle of subsidiarity." There is much talk of "devolution of powers" or transfer of powers from the federal government to the provincial governments, but not enough about "devolution" or transfer of powers from the provincial governments to municipal governments. This resolution attempts to remedy this. Resolution #3, included for your information, is one produced by the executive committee of the Federation of Canadian Municipalities when it met in Yellowknife on September 3-8, 1997. I hope you'll consider these or similar resolutions and which might be wort. h),.Of~~O~. ,.' J5p6tt.::~~"'\.. i ul~ i . .~v .,1V~"1oo I.

That Report TR-108-97 be received, - 2. THAT should Council consider the award of a one time grant to the Memorial Hospital in the amount of $6,300.00, funds be drawn from the Unallocated Grants account #7613-99-X and the prior year surplus. .. - - Back2round 1.0 A letter dated November 5, 1997 (Attachment # 1) was received from the Memorial Hospital, Bowmanville. The normal process for grant requests is to apply through the budget process. However there have also been requests outside of the budget process to waive facility fees for "not-for-profit" organizations. In these circumstances there is traditionally a grant given to the group which will allow them to pay for the facility. This maintains the revenue associated with facility rentals at the normal level for budget purposes and does not create precedent for waiving fees. .. - - - ...2 - - ,)) J .. TR-108-97 Page 2 .. 2.0 If Council considers that a one time grant to the Memorial Hospital is appropriate, there are unallocated funds of approximately $1,900 available from the 1997 grant allocation (account # 7613-00099-X). The balance of approximately $4,400would be charged to that account with the funding provided from the prior year's surplus. ... .. ... Respectively Submitted, ~d~ Marie A. Marano, H.BSc.,A.M.C.T.
