"CARRIED" Council Minutes PRESENTATION ;* DELEGATIONS I - 2- . May 26,1997 Mayor Hamre displayed a plaque which was presented to the Municipality of Clarington during the Police Services Ceremony in recognition of those individuals who assisted the Police Department in seaTching for an abducted child on October 9, 1996. I Resolution #C-392-97 I Moved by Councillor Novak, seconded by Councillor Scott I THAT the order of the agenda be altered to allow Paul Morris to address Council at this time. I "CARRlEDIt . Paul Morris, RR. #1, Hampton, LOB lJO, addressed Council on behalf of the Rotary Club regarding the implementation of a youth centre in the Municipality. Mr. Morris indicated that when the Ad Hoc Committee to Assist Youth presented their final report, three problem areas arose; a full-time facilitator, facility to house the centre, and funding for the centre. He is pleased that, with the lease of the Fire/Court Building to the Oshawa/Clarington Association for Community Living, a facility for the centre has been found. In April a meeting of teachers, parents and community leaders was held to address the important issues surrounding youth. From this meeting, a forum has been set for May 27, 1997, which will include 40 students from across the Municipality to discuss youth issues. Mr. Morris advised Council that Diane Eastwood of the John Howard Society has agreed to assume the responsibility of the Administrator of the Centre, along with her regular duties. The centre will operate completely separate from the John Howard Society. An advisory board consisting of Ron Collis, Barbara Okes, Chairperson, Bowmanville Senior Public School Council and Ruth Sorley, Bowmanville High School; has been formed to work with Diane in heT endeavours. A youth council will be created to run the operation and to control the facility. Questionnaires and resumes will be distributed throughout the Municipality for all interested youth to apply. With the building having been found and Diane Eastwood agreeing to assume the responsibility of the administrator, funding has become less of an issue. Contributions will, however, be sought from municipal groups. September 1997 is the target date for a fully operation'al facility. . I I . I I . . Terri Gray, 23 Scugog Street, Bowmanville, LIC 3H7, thanked Council on behalf of the Clarington Project for their positive recommendation with respect to the lease of the Fire/Court Building. The use of this building will open opportunities for developmentally handicapped individuals of the Municipality to live and be active within their own community. I Viv Woolford, 18 Hooper Sq., Bowmanville, LIC 4X7, advised Council that earlier this month, his daughter was attacked by a dog in the Liberty Village area. His daughter was walking her puppy when a large dog attacked it. The incident was reported to the Police Department and to the Department of Health and the dog was to be quarantined for 10 days. However, the dog was seen running the neighbourhood before the 10 day period was up. Bonnie Hearn advised Council that she witnessed the incident and she and Mr. Woolford requested that Council take action by implementing a by-law to control dangerous dogs. I I .

(The Metropolitan Council 011 May 7 and ~ 1997, amended this Clouse by adding thereto the foUowing: "It is further recommended tIult: (1) Metropolitan Council mquest the Province of Ontario to amend the proposed /efi.s/ative jramewotk fOl' 0 new Mwtidpal Act (0) by deleting Section 10, headed 'RegulatoIy Powers Limited to Own Systems and Facilities~ 10 as to provide municipalities with the power to pass by-laWI within their boundaries regu1Dting 01' prohibiting lJItems owned by, operated by, 01' 011 behalf of 0 petiOlI other than 0 municipality; (b) by deleting all rejermces to the tenn 'waste management' and inlerting in lieu thereof the tenn 'waste Telourr:e mtmagement'; (c) to allow municipalities to cteflte charitoble fountitzdonl fOl' the purpose of supponing non-profit services, such as municipal homes fOl' the aged; (d) to provide tIuIt the statutory monopoly set out in the Mwtidpality of Metropolitan Toronto Act fOl' the Toronto Ti'ans/t Commission be continued; and (e) to prollide tIuIt municipalities be granted power to regulote businesses (l1ICluding the regulation of f<<s to be c1uuged by such businesses) to ftuther enJuuu:e the tI1'fIQS of IIUthorit1 granted by the legislation, in particulot; the health and safety authority; (2) Metropolitan Council further mquest the Province of Ontario to: (0) reconsider Its prohibition to Council delegating authority to CommIttees of Council so tIuIt the new City of Toronto Council (after the completion of the public consuJtation process aurently underway) htIs the opponunily to set out powerI tIuIt CommIttees of Council wiil Iulve; and 2 (b) provide assurances that the new City of Toronto canclJI!.tinue to operate such corporate entities as: (i) parking authorities; (il) utility commissions; (iil) coach tenninals; (iv) economic development cmporudons; and (v) similar cmporudons as those presently operated by the Area Municipalities; and (3) the Metropolitan Solicitor be requested to: (a) consult with those officials of the Federation of CmuuJ;an Municipalities (FCMJ who are worfdng 011 this maltU and repolt bade to the Cmporrzu AdministratiOll Committee 011 a comparisOll of the Olltllrio initiatives with other initiatives being taken in other Provinces, highlighting any differences which may exist as well as obtaining the opinion of FCM officials 011 the initiatives being taken /we in Ontario; and ~ (b) review all specific legislation that peItains patticulorly to Metropolitan Toronto and the Are4 Municipalities, take whatever musures may be deemed necessary to ensure that such powm are CIlfl'ied /onvard in the new legislation and repolt thereon to the Cmporrzu AdministratiOll Committee."J lbe Corporate Administration Committee recommends the adoption of the fonowing Joint repoIt (Aprff 14, 1997) from the ActIng Chief Administrative OffIcer and the Metropolitan soncltor; and reports having directed that it be forwarded to Council for ita meeting scheduled to be held on May 7, 1997: Recommendations: It Is recommended that: (1) the Metropolitan CouneU endorse the recommended modifications to the Ministry of Munlclpal AffaIrs and Housing's proposed legislative framework for a new Municipal Ad, which are set out at Appendix ,. to this report; (2) the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing be requested to provtde further opportunItles for municipal consultation on a new Munlclpal Ad, at such time as completed draft statutory language Is avaBable; (3) this report be folwarded to the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing, for consideration, and circulated to the GT A Mayors and Regional Chairs, other regional governments, and to the Association of Munlclpalltles of Ontario, for Infoonation; and (4) the appropriate Metropolitan Officials be authorized to take the necessary action to glve effect thereto. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I II II II I II II I I II I I I I I 3 CouncU Reference/BackaroundlHlstorv: On March 10, 1997, the Minister at Municipal Affairs and Housing released consultatian documents setting out a praposecIleglslatlve framewark for a new Municipal Act (a copy at which Is appended as Appendix "II" to this report), The Minister has Indicated that the release of these documents signalled the commencement at a 60 day cansUtatlan period, which wit end an May 9, 1997. This report summarizes thase aspects at the proposal thought to be slgnilicant fram the Metropolitan Corporatian's perspective, and lists at Appendix "I" a number at suggested madlfications. Very little at the praposecI legislative framework has beet) reduced to statutory language. making It difficult ta respond to the Ministry's invitation ta consult an the form at the new Ad.. The comments made In this report and In Appendix "I" are based upon the materlaJ available, and an the assumption that BUll 03 and the new Act wtll come Inta force at the same time. Given the significance of statutory reform at the Munlclpal Ad.. It Is recommended that the Province be requested to extend Its consuItatlan process so that munlc!paIities will have the opportunity to comment upon the proposed legislatian once drafting Is complete. Overview of Cons[jfatian Documents: The substantive portion of the consuIlatian documents consists at a 33-page outline at the proposed Ad.. and 16 pages at selective statutory language and eicplanatory nates. It Is expected that upon completion the draft leglslatlan wit amount to some 200 pages. and will Include recent amendments made to the existing Municipal Act through the enactment at BUls 26 (Savings and Restructuring Act) and 86 (including the Municipal Sections Act). proposed amendments such as are to be found In BUI 106 (Fair Municipal FInance Act). and other statutes having appllcatlan to munlclpalltles. No list of the other statutes which are to be Incorporated Into the new Act has been flnallzecl. although It Is understood that the Planning Ad.. the Highway Trafflc Ad.. the Development Charges Ad.. the ExproprIations Ad.. the Envlronmenta1 Assessment Ad, and the Provinclal Offences Act will remain as separate enactments. It has been proposed that the new Act be divided Into nine, pans, namely: . ~_ ", _,.;.. . .... ._..__u. Part I Part II Part III Part IV Part V General" Munlclpal Structure Munlclpal CouncIs Practices and Procedures " Municipal Powers Part VI Part VII , Part VIII Part IX Munlclpal FInance Miscellaneous Regulations" Transition . the draft statutory language consists at 22 sections from these three Parts. Munlcloal Forms. ResoonslbUlt1es: The proposed Act substitutes "Ia.ver.tJer municipality", "upper-tler municipality" and "slngle-tier mmIclpality" for the current method at categorizing regional municipalities. cltIes, towns. counties. ate.. although municipalities will have dlscretian In how they describe themselves. Should BUI 103 become law. the new CIty of T oranto would be considered a single-tler municipality, unless and/or untU the Greater Toronto ServIces Board Is established as a municipality. 4 The proposed Act will distinguish the responslbURles of cooneH from those of municipal staff: ResponslbllRles of CouncR: representing the residents of the municipality; developing and evaluating the municipality's policies and programs; ensuring that there are administrative practices and procedures in place to Implement council's, decisions effectively; maintaining the municipality's financial Integrity; and carrying out other duties set out in legislation. Responsibilities of Head of Council: providing leadership to the councH; presiding ~er councl meetings; representing councH at official functions; and carrying out other duties assigned by legislation or councR. ResponslbRitles of Staff: undertaking research and providing advtce to councI on the policies and programs of the municipality; establishing administrative pracllces and procedures to cany out councI's decisions; keeping and preseIVIng the records of the municipality; administering the flnanclaJ affairs 01 the rmmlcipallty; and carrying out other duties set out In leglslatfon or assigned by councl. The proposed Act will provide that councils will have broad discretion to detennlne their own procedures and anangements. Municipal councRs wOOd therefore have broad discretion to arrange their committee structures and configure thelr procedural by-laws. Many of the current statutory notice provisions will be removed from the Act and replaced wlth ,a requirement that councls establish and adhere to policies governing haw they will cons~ wlth the public, and In what manner councI will give notice to the public concerning the various matters which come before it. The proposed Act will not empower municipalities to establish bodies corporate such as local boards. ExistIng boards would be conIInued through transltionalprovislons, or, in the case of Metropolitan Toronto, through follow-up legislation to the CIty of Toronto Act, 1996 (881103). The organization of administrative staff WlQd also become a local decision. The new Act. wll not mandate particular municipal staff poslllons, but wi! set out the administrative duties and responsibRRles of the municipality (as outlined above). This woUd leave a councI wlth broad authority to determine what staff posRIons It requires and to appoint such staff. A single non-elected person, however, will stili have to be designated to be responsible for the municipality's financial affairs. MunlcioaJ Powers: The proposed Act will be far less prescriptive than the ctmlI1t Act. ~ the current Act COIIfers specific authority for each power to be exercised by a municipality, the proposed Act woUd take the reverse approach and grant broad powers to municipalities, subJect to limitations which woUd be imposed by statute or regulation. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I .' I . I I I . I . I I I I I I . . . I 5 Following the fannat of municipal statutes In Alberta and .Manltoba, the proposed Act would gmnt municipalities these broad powers to be exercised In 13 "areas of authority" (also known as "spheres of JUrisdiction"): (a) the health, safety, protection and well-being of people and the protection of property; (b) public utUltles; (c) waste management; (d) public highways, including parking and 1IallIc on highways; (e) tmnsportatlon systems other than public highways; (f) the natural environment; (g) cul1ure, recreation, and heritage; (11) economic development; (I) nuisances. noise, odour, vibration and dust; 0> dminage, and flood control. except storm sewers; (k) structures, including fences and signs; (I) parking, except on public highways; and (m) animals, and human actMtles In relation to them. Wathln each of these areas. or with respect to any authority confelTed by anOther statute, municipalities would have the powers of a 'natural person', and certain 'governmental powers'.' 'Natural person' powers amount, essentially, to the powers of a business corporation. These Include the ability to enter Into contracts; purchase. own and dispose of property; hire, pay and dismiss employees; delegate administrative responsIbUltIes; provide and charge for goods and services; and sell or otherwise dispose of assets. Since natural persons do not have the power to direct the activities of other persons. municipalities would be given certain 'govemmentaI powers' to be applied to matters under their Jurisdiction, which would Include the power to: . regulate or prohibit, and provide for a system of licenses, permits, approvals or registrations, and to deal dlfferently-with.dlfferent classes of persons.- busInesses,- actlvitles.- services or thlngs~- .,' , ' make grants or loans (however bonuslng restrictions wi! continue); Impose fees and charges, and levy taxes (subject to current restrlctIons) ; enforce by-laws; create offences, apply for injunctions, and Impose fines; expropriate; without court order. enter lands or buldlngswhlch are not dwellings. for the purpose of inspecting compliance with law; . enter private lands for certain specIlic purposes, such as erecting snow fences; licence businesses slmlalfy to the manner provided for In the current Act; and transfer services amongst munlclpalltles. The powers (and duties) related to the financial aspects of municipal government wit be described in much greater detail than the powers associated with the general areas of authority. The consultation document Indicates that municipalities wit be given expanded powers to Impose en addIIIona1 mUl rate on delineated areas of the community to cover costs of some services benefitting only that area (area mtlng). The manner In which area mtlng wi! be permitted has not been finalized. One option which would have Impact upon the new CIty of Toronto would provide that If restructuring has occurred In a municipality. area rating will be permitted If the restructuring results In differences In property-related municipal services. or differences In assets and llablltles brought Into the 6 restructured municipality. Under this option, if there Is no restructuring, area rating would be pennltted only for property-related capital Installations. . Restrictions UDOn Munlcloal Powers: The proposed Act wlllmpose certain restrictions on the exerclse of both natural person powers and governmental powers within certain named areas of ,authority. For example, no munlclpality would be able, to regulate another person's facUlties by exercising a power within the 'publlc UlIltles', 'waste management', or 'transportation systems other than public highways' areas of authority, (although a municipality would stHI be able to regulate, for example, the location of non-owned public utBity plant within a municipal road by exercising a power under the 'pujJIlc highways' area of authority - unless In doing so It creates a conflict with a power of another Jurisdiction). Unless specifically authorized, a munlclpality wll not be permitted to Incorporate a corporation, acquire an Interest In a security of a corporation, become bankrupt or make an assignment or proposal as an Insolvent person. The proposed Act wll reserve to the lieutenant Governor In CooneR a very broad power to pass regulations to restrict the authority of munlcfpalitles to pass by-laws, and speclflcaDy to engage In commerclaI (which Is undefined) activity or to pass by-laws which are In the opinion of the LIeutenant Governor "unnecessary", "undesirable" or which "represent duplication". A statutory amendment would be required to maintain such a restriction for a period longer than three years from the elfectlve date of the regtMtlon. A slmBar provision (with a two year limit) Is found In the Alberta statute. DMslon of Powers: 1ft; Direction will be given to Interpret the municipal powers conferred by the proposed Act broadly, so as ' to: enable municipalities to govem their affairs as they consider appropriate; enhance their abftity to respond to munlclpallssues; and Include, rather than exclude, munlclpal powers that existed on the day before the new powers became avaRable to munlclpalllles.-... -" .. ' The draft statutory language does not direct that municipal powers granted by other statutes (and not failing wllhln the 13 areas of responslbBity) be Interpreted In the same broad manner. .

It Is recommended that Appendix "I" to this report be endorsed by the Metropolitan Councl and fOlW8rded to the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing, together with a request that ~ continue so as to permit the Metropolitan Corporation the opportUnity to comment upon completed statutory language. It Is also recommended that a copy of this report be foIwarded to the GT A Mayors and Regional Chairs, other regional governments, and to the AssocIation of Municipalities of Ontario, for infonnatlon. Contact Name and Teleohone Number: Mr. Jeffrey A. Abrams. Legal Department; 392.a530. Appendix "I" Recommended Modifications to the Proposed legislative Framework for a New Municipal Act A. Fonn and Structure (1) Part V (Munlclpal Powers) of the proposed Act will confer the power to enact by-laws within the 13 areas of authority assigned by the Act. It Is submltted that municipal authority Is often exercised without the need for the enactment of a by-law, especially where administrative powers have been delegated to staff, or In the case of operating and policy decisions made by a local board In respect of matters within Its jurlsdlcllon. The language of Part V should be modlfled so as to clarify that the 13 areas of authority describe the subject matter within which municipalities may carry out their natural person and governmental powers (In addition to the powers provided by other statutes), and not merely the areas within which they may pass by-laws It Is recommended that the proposed Municipal Act. In assigning powers within the 13 prescribed areas of authority, not restrict the exercise of such powers to the enactment of by-laws.. (2) The Interpretation section of the proposed Act Is drafted In such a way as to Inslrucl the courts to IntElfPl'Ell any ambiguity arising out of sections 4, 6 or 7 of the proposed Act (core sections which introduce the powers of a natural person. and allocate the 13 areas of authority) In a manner so as to confer broad authority on municipalities. It Is submitted that In order to give the Interpretation section Its Intended effect, the Act should contain the simple statement that all munlclpal powers should be Interpreted broadly. It Is recommended that the proposed Interpretation provlslon be modified so as to provide that municipal powers. whether they be derived from the new Municipal Act or any other statute, be Interpreted broadly so as to: (I) enable munIclpaIltles to govern their affairs as they consider appropriate; (lQ enhance their abllty to respond to municipal Issues; and (lIQ Include, rather than exclude, municipal powers that existed on the day before the coming Into force of the new Act. 8 8. Municipal Powers and Duties (1) Although the list of statutes to be Incorporated Into the new Municipal Act Is not yet known, It Is anticipated that the Regional Municipalities Act and the Individual regional acts wUl be merged Into the new Act, With the enactment of 8111103, the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto Act will be repealed. The consultation documents Indicate that provisions In the regional statutes which relate to existing municipal powers and duties and for which the broad natural person and govemmental powers of the new Act are not a suitable replacement, will be Incorporated Into the new legislation. Unless provided for In follow-up legislation to the CIty of Toronto Act, 1996 (8flI103), powers and duties attributed to the Metropolitan Corporation under the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto Act will not apply to the new CIty of Toronto unless provision Is made in the new Municipal Act. Of particular Importance to Metropolitan Toronto is a current provision in both the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto Act and In the Regional Municipalities Act which requires that an official plan be maintained by the governing councl. It Is recommended that the new Act contain a provision making It a requirement that at a minimum all single- and upper-tier municipalities maintain official plans. (2) The proposed framework contains no suggested statutory language In respect of a munlcfpallty's enforcement powers. There Is a concern that wlthout express statutory authority, the coons might Interpret the new Act narrowly and in favour of existing common law rights. It Is therefore recommended that the proposed Act make explicit provision for munlcfpal powers to enforce by-laws. (3) Section 10 of the proposed Act would restrict munlcfpal authority in certain areas (for example. it would prevent the new City of Toronto from protecting the lTC's monopoly over intra-reglonal passenger transportatlon, and limit municipal ability to prevent third-party collection of curbside recyclables). The consultation documents indicate that the policy behind section 10 Is to prevent municipalities from regulating in areasgovemed by provincial regulation. It Is recommended that section lObe drafted In such a way as to meet Its narrow policy objective 'without restricting existing municipal powers. (4) One of the stated objectives of the proposed framework is to allow municipalities greater ftexibllty to deal with local issues. In this regard, municipalities are considering commerclal ventures (such as publlcjprivate partnerships) wlth private sectorllrms to decrease the cost of municipal SEllVlces, and/or to raise revenues for the municipality. One method favoured by the private sector In organizing such ventures is the establishment of a corporation managed by a board of directors composed of representatives of both the private flrm and the municipal corporation, Such corporations provide the advantage of responsive and timely decision maklng pt ocesses, as well as protecting the municipality and the private sector partner In the event of losses arising out of the business venture Olmlted llabfllty). The proposed Act, however, prohibits munlcIpa1ll1es from incorporetIng companies or owning securities in a company. It is recommended that municipalities be permitted to Incorporate companies or own shares In companies, subject to speclflc provisions to be established by regulation which would preserve municipal accountabDlty and ftnanclal responslbllty. such as prOvIsIons reqUiring that: I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I. I I I I I I I II II ,I , II ! , II r II ~ I II 'i I I 9 a certain percentage of shares always be Owned by the municipality; meetings of the board of directors or any committees of the board be subject to the 'open meeting' provisions of the Municipal Act; the articles of incorporation describe the purposes of the corporation, and that the articles cannot be amended without consent of the municipal council; the Munlclpal Freedom of Infonnation and Protectlon of Privacy Act have (at least limited) application to such corporations; the municipal auditor have access to the books and records of the corporation, and that such records. otherwise comply with the relevant provisions of the Municipal Act; municlpal assets may not be tlansferred to the corporatlon except as permitted by regulation; and there be certain statutory clauses to be Included In shareholder agreements (such as clauses restricting the transfer and ownership of shares). (5) It Is also submitted that In order for municipalities to deal elfectlveIy with local Issues, they require the ability to delegate certain non-admlnistrative functions to either a committee or a special purpose local board. this woUd especially be so In restructured municipalities such as the new City of Toronto, so as to distribute the workload of the municipal councIln a manageable yet accountable manner. By way of example, municlpallties should be permitted to: consolidate Into a new local board existing local boards which carry on slmlar actMtles; establish committees to hear IInaI appeals from decisions made pursuant to authority delegated to an olllcIaI (such as permit appeals); or empower a committee to conduct public hearings which may be delegated to them, as well as to prescribe the manner In which the hearing Is to be conducted, and the manner .In which the committee's reconunendation Is to be communicated to the council. It Is reconimended that munlclpalitles be permitted to establish local boards to have certain prescribed responslbUitIes, subject to criteria to be established by regulatlon, which might include;. - - . restrictlons on the matters for which a local board may be created; methods of appointment to the board; restrictions on the transfer of assets of the municipality to the board; matters pertaining to the financial records of the local board; and matters pertaining to the conduct of meetlngs of the local board. It Is funher reconvnended that In circumstances where public hearings may be delegated to a committee of councU, that the municipal councU be empowered to detennlne the manner in which the hearing Is to be conducted and how the recommendation of the committee Is to be communicated to the municipal councl. (6) In order to provide some measure of provincial control aoIer the broad natural person and gaolemmental powers to be granted to municipalities, the proposed Act contains at section 22 a provision which allows for the enactment of regulations restricting municipal ability to pass by-laws. this power Is Ilustrated In subsection 22(2) by two examples, the first having to do with matters which the lieutenant GaoIemor In CouncU conslders unnecessary, undesirable, or which represent duplication, the second having to do with 'commercial actMty', a term which Is not 10 defined. These regulations may remain In force for a maximum of three years, after which, If the restriction is to remain in place, the statute must be amilllded, It Is submitted that the two Ilusllations of circumstances In which restrictive regulations may be invoked would tend to stifle local creativity In conducting the affairs of the municipality, Municipalities should be able to manage their affairs wtth the confldence that the Province wUl not Interfere readily wtth municipal powers, and so the circumstances In, which such regulations may be enacted, and their duration prior to there being a need for legislative amendment, should be restricted, It Is recommended that subsection 22(2) be deleted. If the subsection Is to be kept. It Is recommended that the lUustrations be more precisely defined, especially in describing the kinds of commercial activity which would be perceived as being Inappropriate. It Is further recommended that any regulation passed pursuant to section 22 be deemed to be revoked after a period of one year from Its enactment, unless a statutory amendment Is made to continue Its affect.

I am pleased to inform you that the provisions and relevant regulations pertaining to debt issuance and investment have been approved and came into effect on March 6, 1997. These changes will give your municipality the flexibility it needs to take advantage of opportunities in the financial markets and reduce the cost of borrowing and investing. Here is a brief outline of what the some of the changes will mean to municipalities: 1. Municipalities can continue to invest in a range of investment opportunities such as: Government of Canada debt Canadian municipal debt provincial debt deposits and similar instruments of banks, loan and trust corporations, credit unions and caisse populaires 2. Municipalities will have the option to approve a class of work such as roads and sewers rather than having to approve one specific project at a time. The benefit will be lower processing and transaction costs. 3. Municipalities will now have the opportunity to provide short term loans to the broader public sector such as hospitals, colleges and universities. This will help reduce the short term borrowing costs for these bodies and save taxpayers money. ___4_. ~~~ _.~~ r;:;-S"WIT10N i,' I u:... ; .

The GTHBA Parade of New Homes, running May 24 - June 8, 1997, will feature 54 of our leading builder members showcasing more than 100 model homes and presentation centres in 28 communities throughout the Greater Toronto Area. During this 16 day event, we will be working with our media partners and corporate sponsors (see attached) to highlight the "new home advantage". The Parade of New Homes is intended to build upon the relative market strength we have experienced early in 1997. Benefits to your community will include increased local employment and development charges and building permit revenue as well as faster buildout of existing subdivisions. It is worth noting that every new home built generates 2.8 person-years of employment.

Lundy Regional Clerk Regional Municipality of Durham 605 Rossland Road East Whitby, Ontario LlN 6A3 Subject: Minister's Order delegating planning applications currently before the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housin~ Dear Mr. Lundy: Pursuant to section 4 of the Plannine: Act. please find enclosed a copy of the Delegation Order delegating those area official plans, official plan amendments and subdivisions currently being processed by the Ministry. The applications are enclosed with this Order which is effective May 13, 1997. The effect of this order is three fold. Firstly, decision-making authority for the delegated planning applications attached to the Order now rests with Regional Council. Secondly, we suggest that you contact all the applicants to inform them that their specific planning application haS been delegated and is now being processed by the Region of Durham, if possible, the person to whom all future enquiries should be made. Thirdly, the Region is responsible for ensuring that a complete copy of the application is available for inspection by any interested party. When the final decision is made, the file should not be destroyed in its entirety. Rather it should be kept in its current form or micro-tiched (or equivalent) so that a copy is always available for any future needs. Additioually, I wish to advise Council that any applications which have already been referred to the Ontario Municipal Board remain with the Board and are unaffected by this Order. , While keeping in mind that we do not now have a copy of the planning applications, any questions you may have ab..'lUt this delegation should be directed to George Soares, Area - 2-' I I I I I I I I I I I I I Planner at (416) 585-6066. By copy of this letter, we are hereby advising all review agencies of the delegation of these planning applications. The delegation of these planning applications reinforces the Government's commitment to put more decision making at the loca1level and is in keeping with the Land Use Planning and Protection Act (Bill 20). We thank you for your co-operation in this matter and we are confident that you will carry out this function in a responsible and effective manner. Yours truly, dtiJA Victor Doyle, M.C.I.P.

THE FACTS; The following is a brief summary of the latest developments on fiscal and labour policy Issues, Including the status of various pieces of legislation related to the Who Does What Initiative. 1. Bill 84: Fire Proteetkm and Prevention Act, 1996 The Fire Protection and Prevention Act received Third Reading on May 14 ,1997. While there were amendments made to the leglslalion as a result of the standing committee hearings process, tile amendments are not expecied to have significant implications for municipalities. The key amendments relate to hours of work, bargaining unit exclusions, enforcement and fines and some definitional changes. 2. 8i//105: FaIr Municipal Finance Act The Fair Municipal Finance Act. which will enable the new assessment and tax policy system to be operational by January ~ 1, 1998, is sche<luled for Third Reading on Monday May 26, 1997. .Despite AMO's efforts to have the amendment withdrawn which makes it mandatory for municipalities to provide tax reliel program for low-income seniors and persons with disabilities. this amendment has been included in the re-printed version of the Bill. The other amendments to the Bill can be fairly characterized as housekeeping amendments and are not expected to have major implications for municipalities. On a positive note. the amended legislation gives municipalities a clear legislative authority to Issue an interim tax levy Of up to 50% of lasl years taxes. thereby addressing concerns from municipalities about potential cash flow problems resulting from the late roll retu'l1 in 1998. 3. Bill 105: Police Services Amendments Act, 1997 The standing ccmmittee hearings on Bill IDS ended on May 13, 1997. AMO has learned that ~s recommendation to have withdrawn. an amendment to Section 7 of the Police Services Act. which wouid have restricted many communities from contracting police se!Vices from an neighboUring municipality, has been given serious attention. Clause by clause analysis of Bin 105 will take place on Monday May 26" and Tuesday May 27". As well. AMO understands that OPP costing figures wlll be released in early June. .

Work proceeding on labour relations issues AMO has learned thai the Province will be formally consulting with the municipal sector on a number of labour relations issues. Stay tuned for lurther details. AMO has been advised that a number of municipalities have been approached by the Canadian Union 01 Public Employees (CUPE) regarding their concerns about AMO's position on successor rights. AMO will be meeting with representatives from CUPE in earty June to discuss this issue and other labour relations issues af1ecting municipalities. In developing AMO's policy positions on labour issues, it is important to remember that a primal)' goal for the Association has been 10 secure maximum flexibility for municipalities sO they wlll be able to manage effectively in the face 01 new service responsibilities (as a result of Who Does What), shrinking revenues (e.g_ the loss of the Municipal Support Grant of S667 million) and the challenges of municipal restructuring. AMO has always recognized the value of municipal employees and has emphasized the importance of protecting seniority rights. However, in order to maximize efliciency and manage costs, municipalities need ways to ensure that unfair and unreasonable arbitration awards are minimized. I I I 5. Canada-Ontario Infraatructure Works Program Phase 2 On May 2.1997. an agreement was reached between the Federal Governme~t and !he Govemment of Ontario on Phase I 2 of the Infrastructure Works Program. Given that there were vel)' few detailS available at the lime of the announcement, municipalities were anxiously awaiting further Information about the program. On May 14, 1997. the Ministers of Municipal Affairs and Housing and Transportation 'provided these details. In an infonnation package to all heads. of council. I municipalities were advised of their allocation and the process for applying. .A key date to remember Is June 13, 1997.111ls is the deadline for having applications received by the Province. Given this tight time frame, you will receive an application fonn and program guidelines shortly. If you have not received your infonnation package or have further questions, please I contact the COIW unit atthe Minlstl)' 01 Municipal At/airs (416)585-4040 or the Ministry of Northem Development end Mines unit at (705) 670-7315.

Box 189, MlLLBROOK, Ontario LOA 1G~4J 28 12 39 PH '97 (705) 932-2929 I-lO May 15, 1997 Honorable Chris Hodgson Minister of Natural Resources Room 6301, Whitney Block Queen's Park Toronto, Ontario M7A lW3 Dear Mr. Hodgson: As Reeve of the Township of Cavan, I have been quite involved with the Peterborough County/City Restructuring exercise presently underway. I am writing this l~tter to you today on a matter oflocal and provincial concern of which I request your immediate .att~ntion. Contained in the Peterborough County/City Municipal Review Executive Summary and Recommendations, dated May 1, 1997, there is one recommendation which I feel vert strongly \viti jeopardize the conservation investment Cavan and the other 12 municipalities in the County have made in one of our local conservation authorities. Recommendation number 31 reads: "The Otonabee Region Conservation Authority be dissolved and its necessary planning and regulatory responsibilities be assumed by the Upper Tier planning department." I believe that this recommendation disregards the changes your government has implemented to make conservation authoIities more cost-effective, more efficient and accountable, and also disregards the strength of municipalities working together for the common good of our environment on a watershed basis. As 1 understand it, the provincial government has restructured conservation authorities and defined their role and responsibilities through recent changes to provincial acts and associated regulations. The government has identified specific grant allocations for provincial priorities addressed on a watershed basis, and made these available only through local conservation authorities. I also understand that recent changes to the Conservation Authorities Act make it clear as to how conservation authorities are formed, ex,panded or even dissolved. My municipality does not understand why this matter needs to concern an upper tier level of government which has no .../2 .. Hon. Chris Hodgson May 15, 1997 Page 2. direct link to conservation authorities. Cavan Township, given its geography, lies within three watershed regions and therefore is directly involved with the Otonabee Region, Ganaraska Region and Kawartha Region Conservation Authorities. I feel very strongly that the municipal restructuring exercise is not the forum in which to discuss the dissolution oflocal conservation authorities. I would appreciate confirmation of the facts presented above and also your position on the municipal restructuring process as it pertains to Ontario's conservation authorities.

She suggested. that there might be some advantage in co-ordinating these two events next year with respect to ad,'ertising, since the Conservation Authority advertises further into Hope Township. UPCOMING FUNORAISING EVENTS I June :\rd is the launch date for the Museum's 50150 raffle. Ticket sales will continue until the draw date November 29th at 2:00pm.

The sale will follow the same format as the pre- vious sale. with the Member's sale on the Friday evening and the Public sale on the Sat- urday. There will be volunteers needed for the Saturday sale especially in the mid after- noon to help with packing up after the sale. One additional person may be needed for the duration of the day if tables are set up between the buildings for additional books. This should also help to prevent the overcrowding problems that could occur in the storage building. July 1st is the joint celebration of Canada Day with the Bowmanville Museum. The event will take place at the Bowmanville site. There will be a Canada Day T-shirt pro- motion with the Bowmanville Museum. A sponsor for the T-shirts has been arranged to cover a portion of the cost of the shirts.

The Museum will co-host an Antique Show and Sale in conjunction with the BowmanviIle Museum in October_ The exact date is yet to be arranged. The sale will take place at a site to be chosen. Neither Museum site is under consideration. The Museum will co-sponsor a Bus Trip to the Niagara Peninsula in October with the Bowmanville Museum.' The destination for the trip will be the new Butterfly Arboretum, and two other stops. Mark has projected the fundraising total for 1997 at $12,000.00. The schedule of events and workshops for July through December will be distributed at the June meeting and released with the June Newsletter. OTHER MA TIERS \ NEW BUSINESS Valerie has volunteered to contact the Ministry of Heritage to enquire about free items for Canada Day. Gavin mentioned the fact that if a flag is included there is currently no flagpole at the Museum to use the flag. Brian is willing to pick up and help set up a new cedar pole for the flag if one can be located. The board is encouraged to try to locate a pole in time for Canada Day. Donald has been in contact with the ClBC regarding electronic banking. He has applied fi)r a Client Card on the Museum's behalf to acquire a PIN number for use with electronic banking.

OTTAWA - The Atomic Energy Control Board (AECB) today published the latest edition of its information bulletin, the Radiation Monitor, showing the public radiation exposures from tbe Dariington and Pickering nudear generQ.ti.u.g statiOll3. The most recent AECB Radiation Monitor shows that, for the three-month period from January I to March 31, 1997, the public radiation doses' due to the operation of the Darlington and Pickering stations were 1.3 and 2.4 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 mcreases. Copies of the Radiation Monitor or related information may be obtained directly from the AECB by calling 1-800-668-5284. -30- .+. · The radiation dose is a measure of the quantity of radiation absorbed by the body. It is nonnalIy measured in units of millisieverts (mSv - one thousandth of a sievert) or in microsieverts (l1SV - one millionth of a sievert). The latter unit is used in the Radiation Monitor. . ----- -..---- - ---- -". . . .', : O[S~-!ON I NOTE TO EDITORS: See attached copies of the latest edition of the Radiati~n[MoW; _ ~. ..-- j : v::; BY __ i Contact: Robert Potvin, AECB Office of Public Information, (613) 995-5~9~[{IGltll\t I j COPiES -('0: ;----, -11 I_-~ _....~_-~___ i I \----- , , i---'--~ _~_~ \==-QiflOOa- J r--"---.-"-..-- ---;.--.--- Government of Canada Gouvernement du Canada j____...__,.___...___._:______n. _ :--- /J10t,~(/ /- -.. _ January 110 March 31, 1991: 2.4 _ previous quarter. 1.9 _ TOTAtfOR 1991: 2.4 sa from a sin91e chest X.ray: about 10 RADIATION MONITOR NUQ.EAR GENERATING STATIONS IN DURHAM REGION First quarter 1997 Oanuaty 1 to March 31) This information is provided by the Atomic Energy (onITOIBoard, Canada's nuclear regulator.

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 emissior. data. Most persons ,'Iould actually receive less than the doses indicated because they have different eating habits' or live farther away from the station. Radiation doses decrease significantly 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 6% of the radiation dose received from tr,e stations was due to liqUid emissions. while the remainder was a result of airborne emissions.

These billboards are popping up across Ontario. :5- ~'.6f- Have you seen the new Coke display appearing in local neighbourhood stores? The Coke display is also encouraging the purchase of soft drinks in PET bottles instead of in aluminum cans. The display case shown contains only one shelf near the bottom for cans. These promotions by the two largest soft drink producers are alarming for those of us concemed about the costs of the Blue Box. PET bottles are a financial drain on the Blue Box. For example, Metro Toronto estimates that its collection and recycling costs for PET exceed revenues from selling PET by $1.7 million each year. Although the figures are not as dramatic for smaller municipalities, the losses are just as significant for every municipality across the province. If the amount of PET bottles going into the Blue Box increases, these losses will grow. .17 Major Street. Kitchener. Ontario. N2H 4R1 . Tel: (519) 744-7503. Fax: (519) 744-1546. The Canadian Soft Drink Association has stated that the solution to Blue Box financial troubles is the use of high-value aluminum cans for soft drink containers. The industry has committed to using aluminum until 1999. How long can we expect this commitment to last beyond 1999, when Pepsi and Coke are already encouraging a shift away from aluminum cans to PET bottles? Where will municipalities be left as the soft drink industry switches to PET? Your Blue Box will be overflowing with high volume, low value PET bottles. You and your taxpayers will be left with an increased financial burden. We must move soft drink and other beverage containers out of the Blue Box by requiring an effective and efficient deposit-return system. Removal of these materials from the Blue Box into a deposit-return system will create a full producer pay system and will make it easier to expand the refillable system for beverage containers. Only materials that are appropriate for curbside collection and are not taken care of by household composters should be left in the Blue Box or other curbside collection containers. In order to protect the future of the Blue Box, a municipal waste management strategy should start with: e a deposit-return system for all beverage containers; . greater use of refillable beverage containers; . curbside coiiection of oiher maleriais; and . producer responsibility for the full costs of the reuse, recycling and disposal of the materials they produce or sell. Such a strategy will yield higher diversion and recovery rates, improve environmental protection and save municipalities money. The attached fact sheets explain how this can be achieved_ We are working with many groups, including municipalities, environmental and ratepayer groups and industry, to develop proposals for an expanded refill, reuse and return system in Ontario. Soon we will send you a report that outlines the findings we have reached by consensus. We would be pleased to come and discuss our proposals with you.

In exchange for permission to sell soft drinks in aluminum cans and PET, the soft drink industry agreed to fund province-wide recycling in Ontario.

Life-cycle analyses conducted over the last ten years show that refillable systems yield significant reductions in materials use, energy, and pOllution compared to one-way systems of the same material type.

Deposit-Return Systems and the Blue Box Deposit-Return systems are convenient and cost municipal taxpayers nothing . Deposit-return systems are widely accepted'6 and are one of the most widely applied user pay mechanisms in Canada". Deposit-retum systems are fairer than curbside programs because only the users pay. Only consumers who purchase the product pay the deposit. They cari redeem the deposit when the empty container is returned. . Deposit-return systems are convenient, especially if based on retum-to-retail. This allows for one-stop shopping - saving energy and time, and minimizing air pollution impacts. . Technology has made it easier to handle the used containers. Today machines that automatically wash and refill empty bottles'6 and reverse vending machines'. make it convenient for retailers to handle them. . Many deposit-return systems for beverages in Canada and the U.S. include a handling fee to pay for the service (retailer/depot) of handling the empty containers.'" Retailers must be properly compensated for any service they provide. Curbside and deposit-return systems working together are the best solution . Canadian and U.S. experience demonstrates that deposit-retum systems yield recovery rates of 72% to 98%21. However, current curtJside collection for soft drink packaging in Ontario is only about 54%22. The best curbside programs for beverage containers achieve less than 70%23. . Ontario's Blue Box now achieves only about 30% diversion of packaging waste2'. Even with a major, ongoing communications program, considerably less than 70% diversion (of either packaging waste or all municipal waste) is likely to be achieved, leaving at least 30% in landfill. . When curbside and deposit-return systems are used together, total recovery rates and recycling rates are higher and overall diversion costs are lower.25 Deposit-retum systems collect more materials than curbside programs, while curbside programs can target a wider range of materials. Soft drink containers in the Blue Box are not the solution . Revenues from increases in the collection of aluminum usually go to the contractor not the municipality because many municipalities have flat fee arrangements. Since 1992, the soft drink market has been shifting from aluminum to PET"6. Ontario seems to be going in the same direction. Aluminum soft drink cans continue to get lighter and the price of aluminum is unreliable.2] . Municipalities cannot rely on industry to pay its fair share. Between 1985 and 1996, municipaliti3s paid more than 60% of. the costs of tne Blue BoX'". OMMRI/CSR still owes $3.5 milliC!ln to municipalities for expenditures ma\:1e between 1988 and 1994.2' 3 I References I I I I 'The Ministry of Environment and Energy will continue to fund municipal recycling programs that were started under the provincial program before March 31, 1996 until March 31, 1998. This funding affects 35 municipalities. (Ministry of Environment and Energy, "Program Impact Summary Municipalities", unpublished) 'For example, in the seven years of operation, the Kingston Area Recycling Corporation has made a profit just once. and, in 1996 lost more than $800,000 in operating costs alone - a particularly bad year (Kingston Whig-Standard, Dec. 7,1996). Scott's Plains Recycling which runs the recycling program in Peterborough is expecting a 1996 recycling program deficit of $800,000 because the prices of its main recycled products, paper in particular, have collapsed despite the fact that Blue Box programs are bringing in more material at a record pace. Scott's Plains used to get annual provincial grants of as much as $400,000 (Peterborough Examiner, December 11,1997). 4 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Metro Toronto taxpayers in 1996 subsidized the Blue Box program at an average cost of $63ltonne for nearly 88,000 tonnes, for a total of about $5.5 million dollars. (Toronto Star, August 14, 1996). 'Waste News, "All bottled up: Ontario rethinks deposits", March 3,1997 .. Deposit-return systems yield higher recovery rates in the range of 72% to 98%, while the best curbside programs collect less than 70% (James E. McCarthy, CRS Report for Congress: Bottle BlHs and Curbside Recycling: Are They Compatible? January 27,1993.) 5Deposit-return systems have higher recovery rates, while curbside programs can target more materials. Deposit-return systems remove potential sources of revenue from curbside programs, but also reduce their operating costs. Overall when both systems are used together, municipalities achieve a greater diversion of solid waste from disposal at a lower cost per tonne. (CRS Report for Congress, January 27, 1993) A similar conclusion was reached in a more recent study. This study compared three policy options (a disposal fee, a recycling subsidy to manufacturers and a deposit refund fee) to reduce total waste (assumed waste comprised of aluminum, glass paper, plastic and steel) by 25%. The study concluded that a deposit-refund was the cheapest option, but where handling fees were high, the disposal fee was more cost-effective. The conclusion of the analysis was that the best policy approach was an optimal mix of all three options for achieving the most cost-effective means of diversion. (Resources for the Future. "The Cost of Reducing Municipal Solid Waste", September 1996.) "For example, the City of Toronto estimates that a comprehensive deposit-return for all beverage containers would increase recovery rates and permit the City to do Blue Box collection once a month instead of biweekly, resulting in a net savings of $900,000 per year. As well, Metro Toronto has calculated that a deposit-return system on all beverage containers would yield an increased recovery rate for beverage containers and save over $1.6 million per year. ,. Curbside collection is well suited to the residual of materials not collected by a deposit.return system (e.g. fibre, yard wastes and food waste not covered by household cornposters). 8. Deposit-return infraj;tructure has stimulated the creation of local small businesses across Canada. According to the Container Recycling Institute, 150,000 jobs would be created in the U.S. with the institution of a nation-wide deposit-return. I I I I I 'Stuart Hartley, CSDA Vice President Ontario Region, Letter to municipalities in Ontario, April 2, 1997 "Based on city of Toronto data. (George Wheeler, City of Toronto, Deposit Return Municipal Collection ISsues City of Toronto,' Presentation to Citizens' Network on Waste Management workshop, February 27,1997) "PET scrap prices have fluctuated significantly over the last 5 years, from about $1501tonne in 1991 to a peak of about $900ltonne in 1995, then plummeting to about $1501tonne In 1996. (Jan Whitelaw, CSDA Presentation to Toronto City Services Comminp.e, Sept. 18, 1996) " Stuart Hartley, Vice President CSDA Ontario Region, Letter to municipalities in Ontario, April 2, 1997 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I n Over the last 4 years, prices for reqcled aluminum have fluctuated from a low of about $11ooltonne (1993) to a high of $2000/tonne (1995), dropping to about $16001tonne in 1996 and 1997 (Recycling Times, Recycling Data Associates, and Metro Toronto Works Department). 14'Metro Toronto calculated that aluminum revenues for 1996 would yield a profit of $500,000 (net afler recycling costs for aluminum) (Toronto Star, December 17,1996). However, this would only offset the cost of PET recycling by less than a third since the cost of reqcling Metro's 60 million PET bottles would cost $1,7 million (U. Valiante, "Pet Cemetery", Solid Waste Management, October/November 1996). "'Stuart Hartley, Letter to municipalities, April 2, 1997 15.A nationwide survey conducted from June 19" to July 8,1996 and reported in The Environment Monitor indicated that 57% of Canadians feel that deposit-retum systems and refillable containers are better for the environment than reqclable containers wl!ected at curbside. "Deposits are used in every province in Canada for beer containers and in every province except Manitoba and Ontario (except refillable glass soft drink bottles in Ontario) for other beverage containers. "'Kensington Beverage Corporation of Port Coquitlam, BC has been successful in marketing a refillable beverage system to retailers in Canada and the US, Customers return to the store with their empty beverage containers and place them in a machine which automatically washes and refills them. In addition to the two systems sited in references #16 and #17, a third opportunity for retailers to improve the collection and handling of refillable bottles is to establish parking lot redemption centres at the retail store, The retailer could contract out the operation of the redemption centre. This opportunity is most suited to large stores with sizable lots owned by the retailer. The advantages of this kind of system is that the grocer can save on most if not all of the costs associated with in-store recycling, including labour, sanitation, transportation, and cost of lost sales and inventory space that would otherwise have to be used for collection and storage containers. "Designed like a pop machine, a reverse vending machine facilitates the collection and handling of returned beverage containers for the retailer. Customers return their empty containers to the store and deposit them in the reverse vending machine, The bar codes are scanned, counted and sorted according to the store's data base and a redemption receipt is automatically issued to the customer. This provides convenience for the retailer - less handling time and therefore, lower labour costs. For the consumer, the advantage is that the consumer can return the bottles and receive the redemption automatically without having to wait in line at the service counter. Costco and Fred Meyer in the U.S. are currently using this vending equipment. (Erik J, Martin, Many Happy Returns.

Packaging recovery data tor 1995 provided by the Canadian soft drink industry (CSDA web page, http://www.softdrink.calps6n.htm. March 1996) reveals that 53.6% of Ontario's soft drink packaging was diverted from landfill. However, in the same year, CSDA reports that less than one third of all Ontario's consumer packaging was diverted from landfill. 6 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I "The Aluminum Association did a study in 1991 of curbside collection and found recovery rates for aluminum of 24.9%, 44.9% and 59.8% for Rhode Island, Maryland, and Minnesota respectively (as reported in CRS Report to Congress, 1993). In Seattle Washington, a city considered among the best in the U.S. and one that has a user pay system for households, the curbside collection program captured only 26% of aluminum cans, 49% of glass beverage containers and under 5% of PET in 1991 (CRS Report. January 27, 1993). The Stale of New Jersey is considered to have one of the most comprehensive curbside collection programs in the U.S. In 1990 New Jersey recycled 68% of its glass containers, 69% of its aluminum cans and 7% of its plastic containers, for an average of 48%. (New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and Energy as reported in CRS Report to Congress, 1993).

(Havis Dawson, "Plenty of PET," Beverage World, June, 1996).Comparable data are not yet available for Ontario. 27'See footnote 11. The commitment to 1999 does not provide municipalities with adequate security for major investment because of the accelerating changes in container design and material. 28'See footnote 3. 23.ln 1994, the AMRC conducted a survey of its members regarding payments owed to municipalities by OMMRI/CSR. The survey revealed that a total of $3.5 million was reported outstanding for expenditures between 1988 and 1994. A further $1.1 million can be added to this for a total of $4.2 million, the $1.1 million representing monies claimed to be owed to the City of Toronto, which is currently suing OMMRI/ CSR for the money. 10=99058377290 PAGE 1/1 MAY-2S-97 12:46 FROM:OH PND EAST RECEPTION I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I COUNCIL INFORMATION T lA Facsimile Sheet _____ ______4___' '-'<f' \ ~~IST~WJTION t~ I~~:RK~~ . s ____.

Poor literacy skills cost the Canadian economy approximately $4 billion in lost productivity each year. We at Canada Post Corporation are committed to improving literacy in Canada and have developed numerous partnerships and programs to meet this goal. Nominations are currently being accepted for the fifth annual Canada Post Corporation Flight for Freedom Literacy Awards, and I am seeking your help. I am asking you to increase awareness of the importance of the cause of literacy and the recognition demonstrated by the Flight for Freedom Literacy Awards among your colleagues, associates and constituents. I also ask that you prepare a Flight for Freedom Literacy Award submission on behalf of a worthy business, literacy organization, educator or individual who is making a difference in your community by teaching our fellow citizens the value of good reading and writing skills. The deadline for submissions for the fifth annual Flight for Freedom Literacy Awards is June 20, 1997, with this year's Awards ceremony taking place on September 7, 1997 in Toronto. I enclose information on the Awards process. Your support and promotion of these Awards will help to ensure that we recognize those whose efforts will ultimately benefit all Canadians.

The Commission endorses the principle of virtual elimination of persistent toxic substances to the Great Lakes, as committed to by the Governments of Canada and the United States in the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement, and supports the need to manage municipal solid waste facilities toward this end. Incineration of municipal waste, if not managed appropriately, contributes to air quality problems and can result in deposition of contaminants to the Great Lakes. The International Joint Commission, under Article vn of the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement, provides advice and recommendations to the Governments on problems and matters related to the quality of the boundary waters of the Great Lakes system. As indicated in the Commission's letter of transmittal to the Govertunents, we are providing a copy of the policy statement on municipal waste incineration for your consideration.

The IAOAB presented the following policy statement and background paper on municipal waste incineration to the Commission in response to this request. The Commission considered the policy statement in September 1996. In recognition that municipal solid waste incinerators are sources of persistent toxic substances which, when emitted to the air, can have human health implications, can be transported across national boundaries, and can be depOSited on land and in waterbodies such as the Great Lakes, the Commission adopted the statement as its position with respect to the incineration of municipal waste. The Commission encourages all jurisdic- tions and interests engaged in implementing this type of municipal waste treatment to give careful consideration to this statement as the minimum requirements for such facilities to ensure adequate protection of the environment and human health. '~:;r~ iv I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I' I II II I I International Joint Commission A PoAcy Statement on .!Jncineration 01 municipal W~te * Preamble I I I I I The International Air Ouality Advisory Board (lAOAB) fully endorses the principle of virtual elimination of persistent toxic substances to the Great lakes and supports the need to manage municipal solid waste facilities toward this end. It further recognizes that municipal solid waste incinerators are sources of persistent toxic substances which can be transported long distances to or from the Basin and across national boundaries. The lAOAB emphasizes that incineration is only one of a matrix of options and technolOgies available to currently address management of municipal solid wastes. Any incinerator application should be viewed in the larger context of an integrated solid waste management approach, which includes life-cycle analysis, with a priority on reduction and recycling initiatives. The lAOAB notes that there is an inherent conflict between the maximization of waste recycling, particularly of combustible fibre such as newsprint and cardboard, and sustainable, stable operation of an incinerator, as removal of such materials from the refuse significantly reduces its properties as a fuel. The IAOAB recognizes that, if the incinerator option is chosen, facilities can be designed and operated to reduce the amount of toxic materials (including pathogens) in the waste, to concentrate the residual toxics in the ash and to minimize releases of same to the atmosphere. The health implications of release of fine (less than 10 microns) particulate matter from such sources must continue to be considered. I I I I I I I I Principles i) Consideration or deployment of municipal incinerators should not, in any way, compromise programs for waste reduction and recycling, which must remain the cornerstone of waste management. ii) Should jurisdictions elect to build new incineration facilities, these, at minimum, should be in full compliance with the USEPA and MOEE requirements. Further, jurisdictions and proponents should recognize that emission control technology is constantly improving and should commit to incorporate such improvements at several points in tp.e life span of any given facility. In keeping with the principle of virtual elimination, the lAOAB wishes to state four additional principles, namely: Iii) Any further deployment of this technology by any jurisdiction should be done on the basis of a net reduction of emissions of persistent toxic substances, jurisdiction wide, from such facilities. Thus, existing units must be further controlled to new source performance standards or decommissioned by the year 2000. The USEPA regulations and those in some European jurisdictions contain this requirement, which should also be embraced by the Province of Ontario. iv) The total amount of persistent toxic substances released by incineration facilities in a jurisdiction, defined as the sum of those to the atmosphere and in the residuals, must also be decreased when- ever- a new incineration facility Is permitted. . In September of 1996, the International Joint Commission endorsed this policy statement as its position on municipal waste incineration. I v) Compliance with principle Hi) also commits individual jurisdictions to the establishment and I ongoing maintenance of publicly accessible emission inventories characterizing all regulated operating parameters, emissions and releases from these units. vi) The operator and regulatory agencies must make a concerted and ongoing effort toward mean- I ingful public involvement in all aspects of the facility. This includes significant public participation in initial selection of the incineration option, development of a comprehensive justification and I related environmental assessment, construction and commissioning of the facility, as well as operation and final decommissioning. These considerations must extend beyond the facility to encompass measurement and publication of assessments of environmental quality including extensive ambient air quality monitoring for persistent toxic substances and other pollutants in the I adjacent locale. Technical Requirements i) Operating facilities should be required to perform regular comprehensive ambient air and deposi- tion monitoring in the vicinity of the plant and associated ash-disposal location. ii) Emissions from the facility must be subject to continuous monitoring and manual sampling as provided for in the USEPA regulations. If necessary, further sampling to confirm the size distribu- tion of particulate matter in the emission stream should be conducted. Hi) To the extent practicable for specific sites or waste flows, these units should be deSigned for extended stable operation, which could be realized, in part, by requiring the incorporation of electrical or other energy generation. ~ ..... iv) The toxic content of residual ash and particulate should be determined at regular intervals to ensure associated disposal strategies are appropriate for the nature of the waste. v) Source, ash residual and localized ambient air quality data should be collected and incorporated into an ongoing performance review program, with provision for effective public oversight. vi) As an operational principle, Good Management Practice, including rigorous and certified operator training, is a must. Fmancial Considerations While finance is not an area of IAOAB expertise, there is a need to ensure that adequate funds are available for: i) continuous monitoring, appropriate maintenance activities and updating of process and control equipment throughout the lifespan of the facility; ii) support for ongoing independent auditing of operations as part of a public review; ill) sound decommissioning of both the unit and any associated residual disposal site, including long term monitoring of the integrity of any such site. 2 I I I I I I I I I I I I I DISCLAIMER I I I I I The following Background Paper to the International Joint Commission by its International Air Quality Advisory Board was prepared with the support of the Commission; however. the specific conclusions and recommendations in this background paper do not necessarily represent the views of the Interna- tional Joint Commission. 4 I I I I I I I I I I I I I ~ ~ I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I BACKGROUND PAPER TO THE POUey STATEMENT ON THE INCINERATION OF MUNICIPAL WASTE 1.0 INCINERATION: AN OPrION IN MUNICIPAL SOUD WASTE MANAGEMENT ..!Jntroduction The intent of this background paper is to provide an ovelView of the infonnation considered by the Interna- tional Air Quality Advisory Board (IAOAB) in developing their Policy Statement on the Incineration of Municipal Waste. To provide explidt linkage between this docu- ment and the Policy Statement, elements of the Policy Statement will be highlighted in a comment box at appropriate locations of this report. A scientific study (Commoner/CohenJ, discussed with the International Joint Commission in March 1995, indicated the substantial role of munidpal waste indneration in the deposition of dioxins andfurans in the Great Lakes basin. The subsequent rescinding of a ban on construction of new munidpal waste incineration facilities in the Province of Ontario in mid-I 995 led the Commission to ask the International Air Quality Advisory Board to assess the role of such sources in the generation of persistent toxic and acidifying substances. In responding to the Commission, the IAOAB has sought infonnation on the management of household waste, including the application of incineration as one of several tools or options, from most parts of the developed world. Counlrie:j and Option.1 A summary of the comparative extent to which the three major options are used in the management of household waste (landfill, indneration and recycling) is presented in Thble I for Canada, the United . States, Japan and several countries in Europe. The table suggests that Canada, the United States and the United Kingdom largely prefer the landfill option, with relatively low leveis of incineration and recycling. A more recent study indicated that On- tario incinerates 4% of its MSW (municipal solid waste) compared to 16% in the US and 7fY%, in Sweden. (Globe & Mail, 1996). Within the European community. Sweden and Denmark are among the highest users of incineration technology for municipal waste management. In Denmark, incineration of such waste for energy recovery is well established, and approximately 25% of the 2.3 Mt annual collection of household waste (13% of the total waste generated, not including garden waste) is consumed in 32 incineration plants. Approxi- mately 30 to 40 percent of household waste is composted. As the table suggests, incineration is also the preferred option in Japan. In 1992, Japan operated 1892 facilities to incinerate 75% of the 50.2 Mt of municipal solid waste collected annually (w.Iste Management in Japan, 1995). 5 TABLE I Summary of Municipal 'Mlste Management Strategies in Selected Countries Country Generation Landfill Incineration Recycling kg/person/day % % % Canada (1988) 1.7 82 8 10 Denmark (1990) 1.3 25 25 50 France (1990) 0.95 21 21 58 Gennany (1992) 1.4 46 36 18 Japan (1991) 0.8 10 77 13 Netherlands (1992) 1.0 42 31 27 Sweden (1991) 1.2 40 55 5 Switzerland (1992) 1.2 80 20 United Kingdom (1988) 0.8 86 7 7 USA (1991) 1.6 67 16 17 Reference: ':".n International Perspective on Characterization...: 1994 To place incineration in context, a brief overview of some of the alternative waste handling operations follows.

In recognition of this, the US Em has promul- gated new requirements for large landfills requiring an estimation of the volume of gaseous releases and, where appropriate, capture and combustion of such gases. It is also becoming increasingly more difficult to develop MSVIlandfill sites which are a reasonable distance from urban centres and acceptable to the local populace. These constraints are most keenly felt in countries with a relatively small land mass such as Denmark and lapan. For example, over 2300 landfills are currently operating in lapan; their remaining capacity of 154 million cubic metres is projected to be consumed by the year 2000 (Waste Management in lapan, 1995). Thus, incineration is a very significant element of waste management in such countries. I I I I I ... I I I I I I I I ..9ncinerafion Incineration is one of several options available in the formulation of a waste management strategy. All strategies for waste management, with the possible exception of prevention, have potential environmen- tal concerns. While prevention may be the most 'environmentally friendly' strategy. as practised today it is not a complete solution. Nor is incineration. With incineration, the need for land disposal of the: I) ash and residuals, 2) non-combustibles and other elements of the waste stream, remains. maruu;emenf 0/ tlw W~te Stream oIJ/e-Cyc!e Aa!g:Ji6 One of the initiatives implled through inclusion of a 'genera- tion' entry in 'fable I is government efforts to reduce the creation of waste and better manage the characteristics of the generated waste. Several jurisdictions, including the United States and Canada, have attempted to lower the volume of waste generated through product packaging guidelines, product stewardship efforts. and restrictions or incentives to constrain disposable products. In addition, household hazardous collection efforts seek to reduce the hazardous content of the municipal refuse stream, benefiting all options exercised thereafter. 1bday's waste management systems are complex. interre- lated webs that can include source-separated materials collection, materials recovery, composting. combustion, and other processing steps. Any full evaluation of waste man- agement systems must incorporate all aspects of the system as well as externalities that affect and are affected by the system and alternatives to the current system. In the last two decades, major waste management facillty projects using accepted technology have often been delayed for years, in part because relevant and credible 7 environmental information was not readily available. Currently. conflicting or incomplete information exists regarding the benefits and effects of source reduction, recycling, composting, landfilling, and combustion of municipal solid waste (MSW). It is now recognized that the complexities of managing municipal refuse might best be viewed through the application of Ufe Cycle Analysis (LeA). The Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry defines life-cycle analysis as, . ...an objective process to evaluate the environmental burden associated with a product. process, or activity by identifying and quantifying energy and material usage and environmental releases, to assess the impact of those energy and material uses and releases on the environment, and to evaluate and implement opportunities to effect environmental improvements. The assessment includes the entire life cycle of the product, process or activity. encompassing extracting and processing raw materials; manufacturing, transportation, and distribution; use/re-use/maintenance; recycling; and final disposal.' This 'quantifying measure' allows particular areas of energy imbalance to be identified and dealt with, thereby increasing the effectiveness of the entire process. Surprisingly. in many cases, the alternative which appears most environmentally sound frequently requires a significant energy expenditure for the extraction of materials or transportation of goods, costs which are reflected in the final price of the goods and the total use of resources. It is crucial that such energy expenditures be included in any quantification of the impact of any process on the larger ecosystem (1993-95 Priorities..., International Joint Commission 1995). .~:_~ Techniques for analyzing the environmental and economic performance of MSW management operations traditionally have focused on individual processes rather than the entire system. In recent years, in an attempt to consider the entire life cycle of waste, the focus has been on source reduction and recycling options as well as on pollutant generation and energy use some distance upstrtQm of the waste disposal system at the point of product manufacture or remanufacture. life-cycle analysis studies and workshops centred on waste management strategies are being conducted in all areas of the world. An international workshop entitled, 'life Cycle Assessment and Treatment of Solid Waste,' was held in September 1995 in Stockholm, Sweden. This seminar included representatives from Canada, Sweden, The Netherlands and the United States among others. Gxten3wn 0/ J!C4 to munu:ipa! W~te Among other efforts, Ufe Cycle Analysis (LeA) research to evaluate MSW management options is cur- rently being conducted by the United States Environmental Protection Agency's (USE9'.) Air Pollution Prevention and Control Division. Stakeholders for this four year ongoing study include industry (Brown- ing-Ferris Industries, WMX 1echnology. Inc.), local. state and federal government agencies and other interested parties such as the Environmental Defense Fund and the National Solid Waste Management Association. Also, data from the private sector, such as a Iife-cycle study currently undertaken by the American Plastics Council. is to be considered and comparisons to data provided by other countries, including Canada, are to be made. Presently. the project is in its second year and is to be completed by August 1998. An LCA to evaluate MSW management strategies focuses on Improving the environmental performance of the management system for a given quantity and composition of Msw. An LCA approach: 8 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I . provides a 'systems' view to capture tradeoffs and transfers of environmental impact from one waste management operation to another. or from one Iife-cycle stage to another; . provides a framework for analyzing the environmental and economic performance of individual MSW management unit operations and for the MSW management system as a whole; . allows for the analysis of multiple environmental issues. addreSSing overall energy consumption and environmental releases rather than analyzing single energy and environmental issues individu- ally; and . allows for a quantitative and objective analysis of environmental releases. As shown in Figure I, in a major unit operation. a Iife-cycle approach can account for materials and energy tradeoffs from waste management activities related to upstream activities. including the manufac- ture of materials and products from virgin and/or recovered materials. An LCA can also delineate differ- ences in waste management practices including distinctions between urban and rural locales. The major unit operations to be included in any MSW management system are: . collection and transfer separation treatment burial or land disposal remanufacturing cost, energy and resource consumption . . . . . Refuse collection options are divided into: i) the collection of mixed refuse; 'i) the collection of recyclables either commingled or sorted; and, iii) co-collection of refuse and recyclables in the same vehicle. The design of a materials recovery facility (MRF) is also considered. Energy and resource consumption. and environmental releases corresponding to manufacturing of a product from recyclable material (remanufacturing) are other segments of the study. Combustion (with or without energy recovery), composting and anaerobic digestion are other possible considerations. Landfill disposal of mixed refuse and combustion ash is also reviewed. Source reduction is to be considered both within the bounds of the system and in a larger more qualitative context. The information garnered from a Iife-cycle analySis will provide communities with comprehensive, verified information on accepted municipal solid waste options including combustion. composting.

II 2.0 INCINERATION AND PERSISTENT TOXIC SUBSTANCES: THE COMMONER/COHEN REPORT "Preamble. . In March of 1995, a workshop on 'Transition to Virtual Elimination' sponsored by the Parties Implementation Workgroup of the Science Advisory Board, I)C, considered a draft report "Quantitative Estimation of the Entry of Dioxins. Furans and Hexachlorobenzene into the Great Lakes from " Airborne and Waterborne Sources" authored by Dr. Mark Cohen and Dr. Barry Commoner of the Center for the Biol- ogy of Natural Systems, Queens College, CUNY.

This paper was the first of a two phase study to develop economically constructive ways of virtually eliminating the entry of several major persistent toxic substances into the Great Lakes. The second phase, examining economic issues related to the further control of these pollutants from sources, includ- ing municipal incineration, was made available in June 1996. 'm In considering emissions to the atmosphere, the CommonerlCohen paper identified 166 I dioxin/furan and HCB individual emission sources, including 179 US and 17 Canadian municipal incinerators, 124 US and 20 Canadian medical waste incinerators, 263 US and 7 Canadian hazardous waste incinerators and 28 US and 2 Canadian cement and aggregate kilns burning hazardous waste. The ranking of sources is also roughly consistent with those developed on a national basis, as well as some European estimates, discussed in a subsequent section. The source categories considered, and the associated dioxin/dibenzo furan emissions are given in Table 2. Generally. emissions from individual facilities were estimated by determining feed rates and applying an emission factor. In some cases, the emission factors were developed from a very limited data base and several reviewers have suggested that the resulting estimates, particularly those associated with medical waste, are too high; however. better estimates have yet to be tabulated. The relative paucity of good source data reinforces the Board's ongoing concern regarding the quality of the emission inventories maintained in both countries for sources such as these. In detennining the relative contribution of dioxins/furans to the Basin from various sources, Commoner/ Cohen found that municipal waste incinerators were the second largest contributors, at an estimated 24% of the approximate total deposition. The largest source category identified in the report was medical waste incineration. Following release of the report, the estimate for medical waste incinerators was found to be Significantly overvalued due to a gross overestimation of emissions. Thus, municipal waste incinerators assume more prominence as a source. Only 106 sources account for 85% of the total PCDDIDF deposition. This is a more manageable number than might have been supposed should a policy of virtual elimination of releases of persistent toxic substances. advocated in the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement, and by the Commission, be adopted for such sources. The authors also note that it is now apparent that the major route of human exposure to PCDDJDF is food - beef and dairy products in particular. This finding is again matched by European studies, aD of which suggest that atmospheric transport and deposition is a major pathway for dioxins entering the human food chain. 12 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I II I I I I I I I I I , "1 I .1 I I, I I '.'.".- I I TABLE 2 Estimated Annual Atmospheric Emissions of PCDD/pcDF (TEO)" from Sources in the United States and Canada (1993) Source Class Midpoint Value Range of Emissions Percent of of Emissions (low - high) Total Midpoint (g TEO/yr) (g TEO/yr) Emissions Medical Waste Incinerators "" 4,300 1,700 - 14,000 53% Municipal Waste Incinerators 1,900 350 - 4,200 24% Cement and Aggregate Kilns Burning Hazardous Waste 400 130 - 1,300 4.9% Secondary Copper Smelters 360 110 - 1,100 4.5% Wood Combustion 260 80 - 820 3.2% Iron Sintering Plants 230 70 - 710 2.8% Coal Combustion 210 40 - 430 2.6% Cement and Aggregate Kilns Not Burning Hazardous Waste 170 50 - 530 2.1% Heavy Duty Diesel Vehicles 120 40 - 390 1.5% Hazardous Waste Incinerators, (not including hazardous waste bumed in cement! aggregate kilns or HCB waste indneration) 80 20 - 250 1.0% Sewage Sludge Incinerators 30 2 -70 0.3% Secondary Copper Refiners 6 2 - 20 0.08% Incineration of Waste from Chemical Manufacturing Contaminated with HCB 3 1-10 0.04% Vehicles Using Leaded Gasoline 2 0.2 - 20 0.03% Vehicles Using Unleaded Gasoline I 0.4 -4 0.02% Total 8,100 2,600 - 24,000 100% . The toxic potency of the PCDDIPCDF congeners is commonly expressed in tenns of Toxicity EquiValency Factors (TEF). Le. the toxic potency of a given congener relative to that of 2,3.7,8-l.etrachloro-dlbenzo-p-dioxln (2.3,7.8-TCDO). The overall toxicity of a mixture of PCDO and PCDF congeners can be expressed quantitatively by using their respective TEFs to compute the amount of 2.3,7.8-TCOO that is equivalent in its toxicity to that of the mixture. This quantity is expressed as amount of toxic equivalents (TEO). .. The emissions estimates for medical waste incineration have been based. essentially, on the u.s. EPA's estiiriate of the amount of medical waste burned in the U.s. and their recommended emissions factors. which were based on "their evaluation of emissions data (U.s. EPA 1994A). A slightly d1fferent emissions \actor, representing a dlfferent emitted congener prolile. which reduced emiSsions estImateS by 17.6% relative to the U.s. EPA estimate was used. The American HospIta1 Association (AHA) has submitted comments to the US.

EPA; and (b) that the average emissions factor used by the U.5.-FPA (which was based on the assumption of no ponution control) is too high as a slgnlflcant portion of the waste tndnerators now have pollution control equipment. Evaluation of the validity of the AHA's new estimates was not possible, since the primal}' data on which they are based were unavailable.

This latter section dealt specifically with the treatment and removal of acid gases (HCI, NOx)' heavy metals (mercury. cadi mium, lead) as well as the capture of dibenzo-dioxin/furan formed in the combustion process. The performance of specific Ontario incinerators was considered, as was the average performance of US facilities. I His report emphasised the following points. . The modem municipal waste incinerator is Significantly more efficient in controlling emissions ~ units operated ten to fifteen years ago. In the US, with increasing combusted volumes since the early 1980s, specific contaminant emissions were either stable or reduced by 20% to 50%.

A higher level of emission control in Ontario, beyond that in the current guideline, wouid result in tipping fees in the order of $1 OO/Mg; other waste disposal alternatives are available at lower prices; only the largest facilities, with energy recovery, may be economically viable. With the assistance of Commission staff, Mr. Chandler developed the following tables (Table 3 and Table 4), com- paring European and North American jurisdictional stand- ards for emissions of particulate. acid and other gases, as well as specific toxic substances. ii ) StatiM of ..9ncineralion tn Gurope Many industrialized countries, including several in Europe, have moved to reduce-incinerator emissions. In 1994, the Dutch govemment, in response to a determination of high dioxin concentrations in milk originating from cows grazing near municipal solid waste incinerators, commissioned a study of significant sources of dloxin within their country. Emissions from each of the major source categories were determined; municipal solid waste, hazardous waste and hospital waste incinerators were among the sectors considered. Their findings roughly parallel those of Drs. Commoner and Cohen, regarding the relative significance of municipal waste incinerators as a source of dioxin emissions. The Dutch program was comparably more rigorous, in that emissions from all municipal solid waste incinerators (9 in total) in the Netherlands were .. . detennined by source testing in 1991 and 1992; these data were supplemented with additional measurements from other types of incinerators and, in some cases, by literature values. I I I I I I The Netherlands total dloxin emissions to air from all sources was reported to be 484 g I-TEa in 199 I, down from an estimated 960 g I-TEa emitted in 1989. (See Table 5) Approximately 80% of total air emissions were linked to municipal solid waste incineration and it was estimated that three times as many dioxins are removed via the residues (primarily ash) from these operations as via emission into the air. Hazardous waste incineration accounted for only 3.3% and hospital incineration emissions were found to be less than I % of the total air emission. While recognizing that levels from municipal incinerators were unacceptable, the Dutch government reaffirmed its commitment to municipal waste incineration with energy recovery and established a na- tionwide target for total PCDD/DF emissions from this sector of 3-4 grams I-TEO/year by the year 2000. Major reductions through plant closures. further emission controls on existing plants and the commis- sioning of several new plants are planned. 15 TABLE 3 Municipal Solid Waste Incinerator Emissions Umits for Combustion Products and Acid Gases (Values Expressed as mg/Rm' @ 11% 0,)1.

However. the Dutch use several different types of furnaces to incinerate industrial wastes. and hospital wastes are treated differently depending on whether they are classified as specific hospital waste (e.g. human remains) or as other hospital waste (e.g. non-contaminated waste). Specific hospital waste is treated as a special form of hazardous waste, while other hospital waste is frequently incinerated on-site as a batch operation with no additional flue gas cleaning; energy recovery is usually not done. Data on the occurrence of dioxins in bottom ash are not available. but amounts are thought to be small. It is assumed that all on-site hospital installations that are operating now will be closed by the year 2000.

Progress in technology available since 1970 to reduce emissions of seven contaminants of concern at waste incineration facilities, as listed in Table 7, is reviewed. The specific treatment and handling of distinct waste streams increasingly allows such materials to be recycled or made highly inert. resulting in additional environmental impacts of less than 1% of the existing back- ground levels. A number of the most toxic materials can be reduced to 'negligible' levels. From the perspective of the authors. the real problem is no longer the lack of appropriate available technology. but rather 'the courage to implement the right strategies of modem residue management in the light of honest and complete ecological balances.' Immediate adoption of state-of-the-art control technology and procedures at incineration sites is strongly encouraged. 19 TABLE 7 Development of Emissions From Solid Municipal \\aste Incineration Plants as a Function of Time: Germany Dust Cadmium HCr SO, NO Mercury Dioxins (TEO) , mgm" mgm" mgm" mgm" mgm" mgm" mgm" 1970 100 0.2 1000 500 300 0.5 40 1980 50 0.1 100 100 300 0.2 40 1990-95 I 0.005 5 20 100 0.01 0.1 Reference: "Low Fbllutant \\aste Incineration...: 1993 For Germany, information was excerpted from a paper by Professor H. \bgg and Dr. J. \ehlow entitled "Low Fbllutant \\aste Incineration: A Systems Approach to Emissions and Residues' published in Interdis- ciplinary Science Reviews in ] 993. An overview of the Swedish situation was provided by Dr. Maria Ahlander of the Department of \\ater and Environmental Studies at Unkoping University. It appears that a number of taxes have been levied to control emissions of sulfur and carbon diOxide from coal. oil, and peat, but not for abiofuels. a Refuse is considered to be a biofuel and is thus exempt from such taxes, although it may be subject to an oxides of nitrogen tax, depending on the quantity of NOx emitted from a given plant. Responsibility for household and industrial waste disposal lies with each community. In order to be profitable, communities that rely on incineration typically purchase waste from nearby areas to provide an adequate waste fuel stream. Currently some waste is even imported from Germany which has more restrictive incinerator emission standards. Efforts to further recycle or to otherwise restrict the quantity of wastes available will likely force some incinerators to close. About 10% of Swedish hazardous wastes and apProximately 40% of household wastes are incinerated in Sweden. ..~ In 1985, in response to data on releases of significant quantities of dioxins and other persistent toxic substances from household waste incinerators, the Swedish government declared a moratorium on the construction of such facilities. Following extensive review and a commitment to a plan for a substantial reduction in such releases from existing units, the moratorium was lifted. The following are requirements set forth by the National Energy Administration and the National Swedish Environment Protection Board: . The use of waste to produce energy should not conflict with other uses that are more important to society, for example the recycling of paper as a fibre raw material. . It should be possible to use the energy efficiently in existing energy systems, and on a viable financial basis. . The proc!UCtion/recovery of energy from waste must occur in such a way that society's goals in terms of limiting emissions can be achieved. (Energy From \\aste, 1986) 20 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I , , , I All three of the jurisdictions surveyed in some detail (Holland, Germany and Sweden), notwithstanding the determination that existing municipal refuse incineration facilities have been sources of signifi- cant quantities of persistent toxic substances, particularly dioxin, have committed to continued use of this technology. All are planning improvements in control and operation of existing units and the construction of new. state-of-the-art facilities to substantially reduce total emissions throughout their jurisdictions. Energy recovery and the minimalization of land dedicated to waste disposal are cornerstones of their strategy. Technical experts remain confident that emissions of persistent toxic substances from these units can be reduced to background levels, while recognizing that elevated concentrations in associated residuals will then pose a significant concern. (Personal Communication - Erhardt Mogensen, \\zllund Ecology Systems AIS; February 12, 1996) ~i~ The IAOAB notes that the UnIted States and several European countries have focused on im- proving pollution control performance or discontinuing use of existing incineration units by the year 2000. SimUarl)l several domains have a jurisdiction-wide plan In place for this source category, with numerical goals for the reduction of the release of specific pollutants from this source sector withIn a specific time frame. Maintenance of an emission Inventory of reason- able quality is inferred or stated in these plans. To date, Ontario has not forwarded any strategy to reduce emissions from their existing munici- pal incineratIon facilities through application of newer technology; I, . <. I:~: I~ I I Management of residuals from Incineration units with stringent emission controls is or will be the focus of enhanced attention, as the amount of persistent toxic substances increases in these residuals. 21 .# 22 Jurisdictions, particularly Sweden, have recognized the complexity introduced by a municipal waste management strategy that includes both recycling and incin- eration. The impact of removai of paper fibre from the waste streams, with subsequent reduction in fuei value and associated energy from waste opportunities, was noted. In the case of Sweden, a preference for recycling activities in such situations is clearly stated. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I 4.0 IAOAB INTERPRETATION OF VIRTUAL ELIMINATION IN THE CONTEXT OF INCINERATION i) previoIM CommiiJiJion CommentiJ on ..!Jncineration The Commission has noted over the last several years that further reduction in the amount of persistent toxic substances produced or trans- ported and deposited in the Basin via the air pathway is crucial to the safeguarding and remediation of the Great Lakes. Additional quantities of dioxin and other compounds from sources such as municipal incinerators could be viewed as representing an excessive burden to the Basin. Any consideration of additional such facilities should be rooted in the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement and acknowledge its commitment to the virtual elimination of persist- ent toxic substances, as well as being mindful of the Commission's recommendations on the subject of incineration. I ,I I I I I I I In its 'Seventh Biennial Report on Great Lakes Water Quality;. the Commission, in a section entitled 'Burning the Evidence' stated: 'The Commission has increasingly received expressions of public concern about the number of large incinerators and their impacts on public and environmental health. While many specific sources lie outside the basin, they are in a real sense within the Great Lakes ecosystem. . .contributing Significantly to the load of contaminants. espe- cially from the low-temperature incineration of industrial, commercial and household refuse containing plastics and solvents, coated papers and many other products: The Commission expressed strong concern about this issue in its 1993 Report on Air Quality in the Detroit-Wmdsor/POrt Huron-Samia Region. The Commission's recommendations in that report included the phase-out of incineration facilities, or a requirement to eliminate the production and emission of a variety of persistent toxic and other substances, and establishment of uniform requirements for incinera- tors in the Great Lakes region based on the principle of zero discharge. They noted that 'any strategy towards virtual elimination and zero discharge of persistent toxic substances must address the significant inputs from incineration... The Commission urges the stringent regulation of existing facilities throughout North America, taking into account the need to ensure the zero discharge of persistent toxic substances from those stacks to the Great Lakes: 23 ii) :Jhe Commi:Jjion~ Condit/eration 0/ a Virtual [:Aminalion-A-"rf'Ocu:h In defining a path to the virtual elimination goal. the Commission's Virtual Elimination Task Force report "Strategy for Virtual Elimination of Persistent Toxic Substances" (1993) makes the following comments about the concept lemphasis as in original textl: . virtual elimination is an overall strategy that requires preventative and remedial approaches to control or eliminate different inputs . the virtual elimination strategy must apply to all point and non-point sources in all media the virtual elimination strategy must apply to new potentially persistent toxic substances (Pl'S) that may be created, as well as existing such substances virtual elimination must apply to persistent toxic substances already present in the Great Lakes Basin Ecosystem...the qualifier "virtual" is appropriate as applied to eliminating the presence of persistent toxic substances from the ecosystem . . As a fundamental principle, any strategy must anticipate and prevent the deliberate input of any additional quantities of persistent toxic substances to the ecosystem. Given the technological capability to measure lower and lower concentrations of contaminants in the ecosystem, virtual elimination pro- grams may never reach absolute zero. Rather the strategy is a challenge to continuously strive to reduce the amount entering the environment, through, if necessary; remediation, treatment and control en route to fulfilling the Agreement's virtual elimination obligation. ~ Because some of these substances already are present in the ecosystem. and because life in the Great Lakes Basin Ecosystem is vulnerable to contamination from those imported into the region. implementa- tion of the virtual elimination strategy requires application of a policy of zero discharge to prevent further releases from all sources of persistent toxic substances. For new substances that meet the definition of a persistent toxic substance. the application of the zero discharge concept is straightforward: no synthe- sis or production and no release. The lIC recognized that minuscule quantities of persistent toxic substances already in the environment may escape capture or interception before entering the Great Lakes. even with the application of prevention, treatment or control measures. The virtual elimination strategy adopts eight additional principles. as follows: . the precautlonllIY principle. where infonnation is incomplete but there is a threat of serious, cumulative and/or irreversible damage. measures to prevent degradation to the environment should not be postponed . consideration of the complete life cycle of the persistent toxic substances . aU sources and pathways are to be considered . application to releases to all media (air. water. land) . applies globally . apply an approach based on the reverse onus principle; the discharger of the persistent toxic substances bears an active responsibility to protect the ecosystem . involve all stakeholders, including business. industry, people and wildlife that co-habit the region, while assuming the maintenance of a robust economy . apply the principle of risk management to evaluate proposed options 24 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I iU) ::lhe !J-.AQ-.AI]Appftcafion o/lhe Virlual [AmUuxtion Slraleg'j In considering the Commission's deliberation on this goal, the IAOAB recognizes that the strategy of virtual elimination: I I I II I ~ . ! I I I I I I I I . must be applied to the management of municipal solid waste . must be applied to incinerators . must recognize that persistent toxic substances can be both created in an incinerator as well as destroyed or captured by an incinerator . must present practical approaches for moving toward the goal of virtual elimination through an ongoing reduction in the amount entering the environment . must demand the continual adaption of the best prevention, treatment or control measures avail- able at any point in time In developing a policy statement on incineration of municipal waste, the IAOAB adopted and applied these virtual elimination principles and associated components throughout their policy statement. What follows is a brief outline of specific instances of application of the virtual elimination principles, with reference to specific subsections of the Policy Statement, which are referred to in parentheses. The Policy Statement itself should be consulted for specific language and detail. . endorsement of the Princlple of Vntual EliminatIon of persistent toxic substances to the Great Lakes (preamble) . recognition of the need to manage municipal solid waste towards this end (preamble) . as incineration is one of several technologies available to manage municipal solid waste, in the selection of any option a complete life-cycle analyses should be perfonned to ensure that the total impact on the ecosystem is considered (preamble) . in viewing this technology in a global context, new incineration facilities must, at a minimum, be in full compliance with the USEAA, Environment Canada and state/provincial requirements. Also, as incineration process and control technology improve on a global basis, identified enhancements to further reduce the release of persistent toxic substances should be continually incorporated during the life of all incineration facilities, new and existing. Such incorporation should be done on a 'reverse onus' basis, that is, on the operator's initiative. (Principle il) . any application of incineration technology must result in a demonstrated net reduction of the release to all pathways of persistent toxic substances on a jurisdictional basis (Principle ill and Principle iv) . within the incineration process, application of the principle of 'all sources and pathways' includ- ing consideration of all releases from the process via emissions, effluent and solid residual material. Extensive ambient air and deposition monitoring in the vicinity of the plant and at the ash disposal location and continuous monitoring of the emissions and analysis of the residual ash further support the principle of 'all sources and pathways.(Principle v and Technical Requirement i) . The participation of the public in all aspects of the facility. including the review of data on the release of persistent toxic substances via whatever pathway. supports the virtual elimination princi- ple of involvement of 'all stakeholders' (Principle vi) . As a further application of the principles of 'reverse onus' and 'complete life cycle: the IAOAB added an operational principle regarding 'good management prac:tlce' (Technical Requirement vii. The principle of 'complete life cycle: as applied to the facility. also led the IAOAB to identify a need for adequate funds to support monitoring, maintenance, updating process and control equipment, independent auditing, and sound decommissioning of both the site and the ash dis- posal facility. 25 Reference:J An International Persoective on Characterisation and Management of Residues from Municioal Solid Waste Incineration.

Our Mission is to provide an experience in Durham's unique country and culture - and the timing couldn't be better! Tourism studies show that more and more people of all ages are looking for daytrips, rura1/eco tours and soft adventure tours. With an ideal location just 40 minutes from Toronto, we can offer country hospitality to a large population. Our vision is to eventually open involvement to all eight municipalities. However, with the left over momentum from the Ganaraska resting in this area, it made sense for Clarington to be the focus of the "Durham Countryside Adventure" for the first year. It is anticipated that 2,000 to 3,000 tourists will visit Clarington during the two day event. The direct and indirect economic benefits will be significant. The tour will be a great opportunity to showcase the unique community & lifestyle features which Clarington so proudly boasts in their promotions. 1::, DIST~UTION CLERK~______ . ! ACK. BY _ .

Jennifer Cooke and Patti Watson have availed themselves as resource people to our committee. Many volunteers will also be involved from Durham Fann Fresh Marketing Association, Tourism Association of Durham and the community. However, start up fimds are required for the first year. We are seeking fimds as a "one time only" financial support to launch this project. The Municipality of Clarington has been a sponsor of The Great Ganaraska in the past. Weare hoping that you will also enthusiastically support this reorganized community partnership, as well. We respectfully request that the Municipality of Clarington show their support for this tourism initiative by granting $5,000.00 to be used for promoting The Durham Countryside Adventure. In appreciation of your support. a full page "Welcome to Clarington" ad will be placed in the publication and gratis tickets will be made available for the Mayor and Council members. Thank you for your time and consideration. We look forward to promoting Clarington's "country" and "culture" together this September! .~ # Sincerely , ~ Sandy Arc ald, Chairperson The Durham Countryside Adventure Committee R.R. #5, 6275 Liberty Street North, Bowmanville LIC 3K6 Enc!.

The Agricultural Industry is second only to GM in Durham Region. It is the fibre of our community that we promote to people in our lifestyle slogan. Farming & farm families are alive & well in Clarington. Let's showcase them! AGRIC1JLTURAL STATS from '91 Census & '93 Ontario Ag. Stats Total Sales Farm Capital Total Population of Durham Rural Population Farm Population Total Farms Total Acreage in Production $193 $2.2 409,070 77,147 6,785 2,090 337,222 Million Billion 2. In the area of Tourism, Agri-tourism, eco-tourism and soft adventures are growing in leaps and bounds. Many of our farm establishments are already involved in tourism on an individual basis. However, we have much more to offer tourists through packaging initiatives like the Countryside Adventure. The impact on Tourism in Clarington would be greater, as well as the spinoff effect on services like restaurants, shops and accomodations. 3. Clarington is in a prime location, just east of Toronto & just off the 401 to offer unique attractions, services & experiences we tend to.take for granted. Council recognized the importance of tourism for Clarington and is one of the few municipalities in the Region to hire staff to address this growing field that goes hand in hand with econmic development. 4. This is the year for Clarington to shine, to "show & tell" what we are so proud of. The goal is to eventually involve the entire Region in the Annual Durham Countryside Adventure. However, the focus will be on Clarington, where the left-over momentum of the Great Ganaraks Countryside Adventure took place. 5. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I The local businesses on the tour are paying to be a location for these two days. They recognize that by joining forces, they have more to offer consumers and are willing to pay their way. 6. Two summer students will be employed as a result of this venture. 7. Volunteers and youth through Girl Guides of Canada and 4H will be valuable assets in making this tour possible. 8. Finally, the partnership of Durham Fann Fresh & the Tourism Association of Durham Region with other community organizations, service clubs and commodity groups to organize "The Durham Countryside Adventure" allows many to benefit and be proud of their community.

Vokes Director of Public Works Municipalit)' of Clarington Dear Sir: Re: Meeting Wednesday April 30 to discuss. Redevelopment of the Tyrone Park Thank you for the opportunity afforded Neal Smith and I to talk to staff. I was sorrv to find that the meeting was not as directed bv Council Resolution #C-866-96. Had it been. I feel we could have clarified some of the issue~ prior to your report'to Council. Staff misunderstandings that were addressed at our meeting and that I believe need repeating are: Area serviced by Tyrone Community Park - Hampton. Burketon. Mitchell Corners, Enfield and Emliskillen. When we refer to drawing children from these areas we are often doing so because of unique programs like hard ball (only other program is Bowmanville). small areas without sufficient registration to field a team in a given age group or because the community lacks the facilities to offer their own programs. We were not implying that the we are always the sole source of these programs. Land purchased by the TOIm circa 1990 and added to the Tyrone community park. This land has not yet been added to the developed area due to needed grade improvements. (This is part of phase one of our plan.) Location of existing Children's Playground We were not attempting to pass blame to the Town ror the current situation and were pleased to hear that T o\\n staff also had ex 'Pressed concern about the location a number of years ago. We feel that the issue is a serious one and with the 20 f 20 vision of hindsight. the location selected \~as not the best choice. It is none the less a situation that should be corrected. ~ Staff explained some of the rational behind the exclusion ofT~Tone Park from the 1992 Municipality's Development Charge By-law and Development Charge Policy Report. The asswnptions made at that time. were based on the input available to staff. There was no regular communication forum between residents and the Town to promote the necessary information exchange. Tyrone had a history of working out their problems without approaching the Town. It was an arrangement that seemed on the surface to be a continuwn of prior policy. The difference was that there was no longer elected official contact with the community as in the past. Earlier years often had a member of Council as a regular attendee at Community Centre Board meetings. It was also assumed that the needs of neighbouring communities would be handled in a timely manner bv the creation of facilities within their boundaries. thus redu';ing the demands on the Tyrone facility. Enniskillen being a prime example. The To\,n is still an unkno\\n nwnber of years away from ha\'ing a facility up and running ~ Enniskillen with the issue of land acquisition not yet resolved. Once that hurdle is over, the type of facility must also be resolved. Residents must be polled. volunteers recruited and an organization established for this it be a success. Staff also spoke to the cost of facilities in other areas and the desire to ensure the viability of these other facilities. ~one. on~. canada 85/23/97 87:22:51 416-396-4384 -} 985 623 5717 Town Clerk Page 883 I I I I I Amounts of $300.000 plus fOr Hampton and S 180.000.(01' Burketon were mentioned. These amounts sound reasonable for the development of good recreational facilities. T}mne's facilities could not be recreated for a traction of those dollars. We are proud of work the community has done in building and maintaining our current park. The Town's support. when asked for has always bee~ positive. With this partnership the drain on tax dollars over the years has been minimal. There has not been a constant demand for those scarce tax dollars. no "they got this so we are entitled to that". Nor are We suggesting that to be the case today. What we would ask is that Staff and Council consider SOme of the benefits that the proposed expansion of the Tyrone facility would provide. Small rural community parks can not survive by competing with one another. The question must be asked "Can facilities in Tyrone and Enniskillen draw sufficient numbers',? Would it be a repeat of the Burketon problem? Or worse'''Would both centers suffer the same fate? . Would it not be better to postpone until population growth was in place to support the creation of programs and facilities complementing each other? Sufficient numbers of participants must exist to populate teams at all levels and in all sports. Communities must work in concert to meet the needs of their residents. Pressure could be reduced to have a full-blown facility in Enniskillen established over the next couple of years with some improvements to the existing school grounds and grow as volunteers gain valuable experience by working \\;th the Tyrone group. (Involvement that started \\;th a small number of Enniskillen residents having signed on this year). This would also reduce the likelihood of a repeat of the Burketon experience where the community was unable to sustain the necessary commitment trom volunteers to continue the operation). We must have sound programs for our youth today. We must continue to support and nurture the value set that these community activities foster. With an ever shrinking treasury we must consider "What provides the best bang for the constituents dollar". We must continue the traditions and history of volunteer. community run programs. Thank you for Your time and consideration. Help us maintain the "spirit of community" that volunteer run programs provide by working with us on this project.

We would like fO replace all the va.tious signs at the street with one professional sign which will improve the esthetics. OW' present sign would be removed and replaced with the sign (see copy enclosed) which is presently located at our driveway entrance and does not obstruct vision to oncoming traffic, Doug Powless informed us we cannot put the sign where our current sign is but must affix it to the Frank Real Estate sign. The problem is as follows; putting the sign there would double our costs and we have no guarantee Frank Real Estate will continue to lease at 234 King St. E. It is also visual obslIUction to oncoming traffic in this location. Secondly, we tried a sign there and this caused great confusion with patients at both 222 King St. and 234 King St., as they would enter in the driveway at 222 King St. We had many complaints and concerns, for safety re.asons we muvt:d illu Ihe presenllucalion.

Predictions that reserves might last for another 60 years are unrealistic, writes Dr. Craig Hatfield of the University ofToledo Ohio. Since 1985, new fmds have averaged less than nine billion barrels of oil a year, while consumption has averaged more than 23 billion barrels. Also, some reported oil reserves might not exist. "It bas been suggested that the increases [in reserves] are political rather than real." The gradual exhaustion of world oil supplies means that eventually there will be little or no gasoline. Cars will begin to disappear. There will be a tremendous change in transportation methods requiring thoughtful long-term planning. In recent years, there has been much discussion regarding the effect of government deficit on future generations. The effects of the exhaustion of oil will take place even within the present generation. What plans are you and the Municipality ofClarington making about the approaching oil crisis?

Barrie Clerk Corporation of the Municipality ofClarington 40 Temperance Street Bowmanville, Ontario LIC 3A6 MAY - 2.7"997 MAl Dear Ms. Barrie: The Honourabl~ Lucienne Robi11ard, Minister of Citizenship and Immigration, has asked that I respond to your letter of March 27, 1997 concerning citizenship ceremonies. I assure you that citizenship ceremonies will continue to be held across Canada. Although the process of applying for citizenship is being stream-lined in an: effort to provide better and more efficient service to the public, citizenship ceremonies will continue to be held in citizenship offices and in local communities.. There has been some reduction in the frequency with which ceremonies are held in areas where the number of recipients are low, however, individuals are advised that they can wait fot a ceremony in their area or they can choose to take part in a. <;eremony being held. in the nearest large centre. In addition, community outreach and regular contact with offices of area MPs continue to provide the public with citizenship services. . The Citizenship Act requires applications fo~ the grant of citizenship to be considered by a citizenship judge and for the judge to notify the Minister of his or her decision. . Citizenship judges perform two roles: that of decision-maker and the ceremonial function of administering the oath of citizenship. In 1994, t.'J.en Minister Qf Citizenship and Immigration, Sergio Marchi announced that the position of citizenship judge would be abolished and that Order of Canada recipients would be asked to preside at citizenship ceremonies. About 250 of the 2370 Order of Canada recipients have shown an interest in presiding at citizenship ceremonies and about 123 have conducted ceremonies. No new judges have been appointed since 1994, and there are only 19 judges left out of 54. A further 9 more judges will leave by January 1998, and all appointments will expire by August 1998. Bill C-49 was introduced June 14, 1996, and was before the House at the time of the election call. This legislation would have helped to reduce government expenditures, made the citizenship process more efficient and eliminated the position of Citizenship Judge. After the election, this government will continue to work on a strategy to address this situation. Canada .2. The government is committed to continuing the tradition of celebrating Canadian citizenship, maintaining a sense of community, and welcoming new citizens into the Canadian family by holding citizenship ceremonies that inspire a sense of commitment to Canada, in all Canadians. Thank you for writing and expressing your concerns. I hope that this information is of some assistance. Sincerely, ~c,...,..~.-,"""",~~ Ministerial and Executive Services r~IST~UTION ! I CltRK I~_- .

MA'iOl'o'S OffiCE OTTAWA _ The Atomic Energy Control Board (AECB) today published the latest edition of its information bulletin, the Radiation Monitor, showing the public radiation exposures from the Dariington and Pickering nuclear generating statiollS. , , The most recent AECB Radiation Monitor shows that, for the three-month period from January 1 to March 31, 1997, the public radiation doses' due to the operation of the Darlington and Pickering stations were 13 and 2.4 microsieverts, respectively. In comparison, a typical chest X-ray produces a dose of approximately 70 microsieverts, while a return flight from Toronto to Varlcouver would result in an increased dose from cosmic radiation of about 20 microsieverts. The doses indicated dne 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 Radia/ioll Monitor or related information may be obtained directly from the AECB by calling 1_800-668-5284 -30- . The radiation dose is a measure of the quantity of radiation absorbed by the body. It is normally measured in units of millisieverts (mSv _ one thousandth of a sievert) or in microsieverts (I'Sv - one millionth of a sievert). The latter unit is used in the Radiation Monitor. . -- -.--.--- .-..---', .. : D;5TR~!ON 1 NOTE TO EDITORS: See attached copies of the latest edition of the Radiati4n?J(Jfl;~-- J : ,',:~, 3\'_ i Contact: Robert potvin, AECB Office of Public Information, (613) 995-5&9~{iGlffAt T!

The radiation doses due to emissions are for the most exposed persons living near the station. They woald 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 produre. The doses were calculated using actual data from routine analysis of air. water. milk. fish and vegetation samples. as well as station emissior. data. Masl persons /'lould actually. receive less than the doses indicated because they have different eating habits or live farther away from the station. Radiation doses decrease Significantly 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 6% of the radiation dose received from tne stations was due to liquid emissions, while the remainder was a result of airborne emissions.

These billboards are popping up across Ontario. ~.~ Have you seen the new Coke display appearing in local neighbourhood stores? The Coke display is also encouraging the purchase of soft drinks in PET bottles instead of in aluminum cans. The display case shown contains only one shelf near the bottom for cans. These promotions by the two largest soft drink producers are alarming for those of us concerned about the costs of the Blue Box. PET bottles are a financial drain on the Blue Box. For example, Metro Toronto estimates that its collection and recycling costs for PET exceed revenues from selling PET by $1.7 rnillioneach year. Although-the figures are not as dramatic for smaller municipalities, the losses are just as significant for every municip~lity across the province. If the amount of PET bottles going into the Blue Box increases, these losses will grow. - 17 Major Street- Krtchener, Ontario - N2H 4R1 - Tel: (519) 744-7503 - Fax: (519) 744-1546- The Canadian Soft Drink Association has stated that the solution to Blue Box financial troubles is the use of high-value aluminum cans for soft drink containers. The industry has committed to using aluminum until 1999. How long can we expect this commitment to last beyond 1999, when Pepsi and Coke are already encouraging a shift away from aluminum cans to PET bottles? Where will municipalities be left as the soft drink industry switches to PET? Your Blue Box will be overflowing with high volume, low value PET bottles. You and your taxpayers will be left with an increased financial burden. We must move soft drink and other beverage containers out of the Blue Box by requiring an effective and efficient deposit-return system. Removal of these materials from the Blue Box into a deposit-return system will create a full producer pay system and will make it easier to expand the refillable system for beverage containers. Only materials that are appropriate for curbside collection and are not taken care of by household composters should be left in the Blue Box or other curbside collection containers. In order to protect the future of the Blue Box, a municipal waste management strategy should start with: e a deposit-return system for all beverage containers; . greater use of refillable beverage containers; . curbside coilection of other materiais; and . producer responsibility for the full costs of the reuse, recycling and disposal of the materials they produce or sell. Such a strategy will yield higher diversion and recovery rates, improve environmental protection and save municipalities money. The attached fact sheets explain how this can be achieved. We are working with many groups, including municipalities, environmental and ratepayer groups and industry, to develop proposals for an expanded refill, reuse and return system in Ontario. Soon we will send you a report that outlines the findings we have reached by consensus. We would be pleased to come and discuss our proposals with you.

I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I How to Improve the Future of the Blue Box Today Blue Box is in the red. eliminate subsidies to industry . In exchange for permission to sell soft drinks in aluminum cans and PET, the soft drink industry agreed to fund province-wide recycling in Ontario. This agreement, together with provincial funding of $2.5 million each year to municipalities for recycling. led to the birth of Ontario's Blue Box system in late 1985. . Provincial funding of the Blue Box ended in March 1996'. Blue Box systems in Ontario now find themselves in the red and with taxpayers paying for the losses2. . Waste News reports that between 1985 and 1996, producers paid $41 .million for the Blue Box system, while municipal and provincial taxpayers paid over half a billion dollars.' Municipalities paid more than 60% of this subsidy. Implement a comprehensive deposit-return and refillables system . Deposit-return systems have proven to be highiy effective at product recovery, achieving higher recovery rates than curbside programs' . Deposit-return systems do not compete with curbside programs. Not only are the two systems fully compatible, but when both systems are used together, total recovery rates and recycling rates are higher and overall diversion costs are lower! . A deposit-retum system on all beverage containers, which comprise about 50% of the Blue Box by volume (includes liquor and wine bottles), would increase diversion rates and reduce Blue Box costs.. . Refillable bottle systems work best with a deposit-retum system. Refillable systems depend on the producer being able to recover large quantities of containers ior refiiling. Deposit-return systems provide an effective incentive for consumers to return their empties and, therefore, achieve very high recovery rates. . Refillables are environmentally superior to recyclables. life-cycle analyses conducted over ttle last ten years show that refillable systems yield significant reductions in materials use, energy, and pollution compared to one-way systems of the same material type. Soft drink companies such as Coke and Pepsi now use refillable PET in Europe, Latin America and South America. . A municipal waste management strategy comprised of a deposit-retum system for all beverage containers, Blue Box collection of other materials7, and refillable soft drink beverage containers would yield higher diversion and recovery rates, improve environmental protection, save municipalities money and create jobs.. Taxpayer subsidies on beverage containers would be eliminated. Soft Drink Containers and the Blue Box Collection of PET soft drink containers is uneconomic . Although soft drink containers are only 1 % of the waste stream", they take up approximately half the Blue Box volume, making them costly to transport.'o . PET bottles have an extremely high volume-to-weight ratio and, therefore, occupy a disproportionately large volume in recycling trucks_ This makes the cost of transporting PET very high. The price of scrap PET today does not cover the cost of collection and recycling. " Blue Box is too dependent on aluminum soft drink containers . Aluminum soft drink containers generate revenues which offset transportation costs, providing nearly 40% of the total scrap revenue of Blue Box recycling.12 This makes them the most economically attractive component of Blue Box materials. . Such heavy reliance on one material for economic viability makes the Blue Box. vulnerable and its future uncertain. . The Blue Box is susceptible to changes in the price of recycled aluminum". When prices are high, competition for the cans increases (e_g charity drives and illegal scavengers of Blue Box materials), When prices are low such as in 1996, the cans do not even offset the total cost of recycling of all soft drink containers in the Blue Box." . The soft drink industry has committed to using aluminum cans only until the end of 1999. How long the commitment will be extended beyond 1999 is questionable since steel cans are now much cheaper than aluminum cans 15. Wood v.1de market shifting from cans to PET . In the U.S. the introduction of single-serving PET has led to increased PET use, displacing aluminum cans. Evidence suggests that the Ontario market is lagging behind, but is likely to be heading in the same direction. . Pepsi has just launched a major advertising campaign encouraging consumers to buy a sixpack of PET (710 ml) instead of 12 cans because it is more convenient. 'Producer pay" needed for long tenn survival of Blue Box . A Blue Box system, with appropriate materials going into it (deposit-return for all beverage containers) and with producers paying the full cost of using it, will protect municipalities from being overly dependent on one material, from price fluctuations of scrap materials, and from producers' packaging choices. 2 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Deposit-Return Systems and the Blue Box Deposit-Return systems are convenient and cost municipal taxpayers nothing . Deposit-return systems are widely accepted'" and are one of the most widely applied user pay mechanisms in Canada17. Deposit-return systems are fairer than curbside programs because only the users pay. Only consumers who purchase the product pay the deposit. They can redeem the deposit when the empty container is returned. . Deposit-return systems are convenient, especially if based on return-to-retail. This allows for one-stop shopping - saving energy and time, and minimizing air pollution impacts. . Technology has made it easier to handle the used containers. Today machines that automatically wash and refill empty bottles" and reverse vending machines'. make it convenient for retailers to handle them. . Many deposit-retum systems for beverages in Canada and the U.S. include a handling fee to pay for the service (retailer/depot) of handling the empty containers.20 Retailers must be property compensated for any service they provide. Curbside and deposit-return systems working together are the best solution . Canadian and U.S. experience demonstrates that deposit-retum systems yield recovery rates of 72% to 98%2'. However. curren! curbside collection for soft drink packaging in Ontario is only about 54%22. The best curbside programs for beverage containers achieve less than 70%23. . Ontario's Blue Box now achieves only about 30% diversion of packaging waste2'. Even with a major, ongoing communications program, considerably less than 70% diversion (of either packaging waste or all municipal waste) is likely to be achieved, leaving at least 30% in landfill. . When curbside and deposit-retum systems are used together, total recovery rates and recycling rates are higher and overall diversion costs are lower!' Deposit-retum systems collect more materials than curbside programs, while curbside programs can target a wider range of materials. Soft drink containers in the Blue Box are not the solution . Revenues from increases in the collection of aluminum usually go to the contractor not the municipality because many municipalities have flat fee arrangements. Since 1992, the soft drink market has been shifting from aluminum to PET"". Ontario seems to be going in the same direction. Aluminum soft drink cans continue to get lighter and the price of aluminum is unreliable!' . Municipalities cannot rely on industry to pay its fair share. Between 1 985 and 1 996, municipalities paid more than 60% of the costs of tne Blue Box".. OMMRtlCSR still owes $3.5 million to municipalities for expenditures made between 1988 and 1994!9 3 References I I I I I 'The Ministry of Environment and Energy will continue to fund municipal recycling programs that were started under the provincial program before March 31, 1996 until March 31, 1998. This funding affects 35 municipalities. (Ministry of Environment and Energy, "Program Impact Summary Municipalities", unpublished) 'For example, in the seven years of operation. the Kingston Area Recycling Corporation has made a profit just once. and, in 1996 lost more than $800,000 in operating costs alone - a particularly bad year (Kingston Whig-Standard, Dec. 7,1996). Scott's Plains Recycling which runs the recycling program in Peterborough is expecting a 1996 recycling program deficit of $800,000 because the prices of its main recycled products, paper in particular, have collapsed despite the fact that Blue Box programs are bringing in more material at a record pace. Scott's Plains used to get annual provincial grants of as much as $400,000 (Peterborough Examiner, December 11,1997). 4 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Metro Toronto taxpayers in 1996 subsidized the Blue Box program at an average cost of $63ltonne for nearly 88,000 tonnes, for a total of about $5.5 million dollars. (Toronto Star, August 14, 1996). 'Waste News, "All bottled up: Ontario rethinks deposits", March 3, 1997 .. Deposit-return systems yield higher recovery rates in the range of 72% to 98%, while the best curbside programs collect less than 70% (James E. McCarthy, CRS Report for Congress: Bottle Bills and Curbside Recycling: Are They Compatible? January 27, 1993.) 'Deposit-return systems have higher recovery rates, while curbside programs can target more materials. Deposit-return systems remove potential sources of revenue from curbside programs, but also reduce their operating costs. Overall when both systems are used together, municipalities achieve a greater diversion of solid waste from disposal at a lower cost per tonne. (CRS Report for Congress, January 27, 1993) A similar conclusion was reached in a more recent study. This study compared three policy options (a disposal fee, a recycling subsidy to manufacturers and a deposit refund fee) to reduce total waste (assumed waste comprised of aluminum, glass paper, plastic and steel) by 25%. The study concluded that a deposit-refund was the cheapest option, but where handling fees were high, the disposal fee was more cost-effective. The conclusion of the analysis was that the best policy approach was an optimal mix of all three options for achieving the most cost-effective means of diversion. (Resources for the Future, "The Cosi of Reducing Municipal Solid Waste", September 1996.) '.For example, the City of Toronto estimates that a comprehensive deposit-return for all beverage containers would increase recovery rates and permit the City to do Blue Box collection once a month instead of biweekly. resulling in a net savings of $900,000 per year. As well, Metro Toronto has calculated that a deposit-return system on all beverage containers would yield an increased recovery rate for beverage containers and save over $1.6 million per year. 7. Curbside collection is well suited to the residual of materials not collected by a deposit-return system (e.g. fibre, yard wastes and food waste not covered by household composters). S:Oeposil-return infra;o;tructure has stimulated the creation of local small businesses across Canada. According to the Container Recycling Institute, 150,000 jobs would be created in the u.S. with the institution of a nation-wide deposil-retum. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I 'Stuart Hartley. CSDA Vice President Ontario Region. Letter to municipalities in Ontario, April 2, 1997 "Based on City of Toronto data. (George Wheeler, City of Toronto, Deposit Return Municipal Collection Issues City of Toronto, Presentation to Citizens' Network on Waste Management workshop, February 27, 1997) ".pET scrap prices have fluctuated significantly over the last 5 years, from about $150/tonne in 1991 to a peak of about $900/tonne in 1995, then plummeting to about S15O/tonne in 1996. (Jan Whitelaw, CSDA Presentation to Toronto City Services Committee, Sept 18, 1996) " Stuart Hartley, Vice President CSDA Ontario Region, Letter to municipalities in Ontario, April 2. 1997 " Over the last 4 years, prices for recycled aluminum have fluctuated from a low of about $11001tonne (1993) to a high of $2000/tonne (1995), dropping to about $1600ltonne in 1996 and 1997 (Recycling Times, Recycling Data Associates, and Metro Toronto Works Department). ".Metro Toronto calculated that aluminum revenues for 1996 would yield a profit of $500,000 (net after recycling costs for aluminum) (Toronto Star, December 17, 1996). However. this would only offset the cost of PET recycling by less than a third since the cost of recycling Metro's 60 million PET bottles would cost $1.7 million (U. Valiante, "Pet Cemetery", Solid Waste Management, October/November 1996). ".Stuart Hartley, Leller to municipalities, April 2, 1997 19.A nationwide survey conducted from June 19'" to July 8,1996 and reported in The Environment Monitor indicated that 57% of Canadians feel that deposit-return systems and refillable containers are better for the environment than recyclable containers c0i!ected at curbside. "Deposits are used in every province in Canada for beer containers and in every province except Manitoba and Ontario (except refillable glass soft drink bottles in Ontario) for other beverage containers. "Kensington Beverage Corporation of Port Coquitlam. BC has been successful in marketing a refillable beverage system to retaiiers in Canada and the US. Customers return to the ,,'lore with their empty beverage containers and place them in a machine which automatically washes and refills them. In addition to the two systems sited in references #16 and #17. a third opportunity for retailers to improve the collection and handling of refillable bottles is to establish parking lot redemption centres at the retail store. The retailer oould contract out the operation of the redemption centre. This opportunity is most suited to large stores with sizable lots owned by the retailer. The advantages of this kind of system is that the grocer can save on most if not all of the costs associated with in-store recycling, including labour. sanitation, transportation, and cost of lost sales and inventory space that would otherwise have to be used for collection and storage containers. "Designed like a pop machine. a reverse vending machine facilitates the collection and handling of returned beverage containers for the retailer. Customers retum their empty containers to the store and deposilthem in the reverse vending machine. The bar codes are scanned, counted and sorted according to the store's data base and a redemption receipt is automatically issued to the customer. This provides convenience for the retailer - less handling time and therefore. lower labour costs. For the consumer, the advantage is that the consumer can retum the bottles and receive the redemption automatically without having to wait in line at the service counter. Costco and Fred Meyer in the U.S. are currently using this vending equipment (Erik J. Martin. Many Happy Returns, Store Equipment and Design, April 1996) 5 2O.Provincial handling fees range from 2 cents per container (Quebec) to 5 cents per container (Saskatchewan - 5 cents-metal: 6 cents.plaslic: and 7 cents-glass). and to 10 cents in PEL (fees range from 3 cents to 10 cents based on container size_) (RCO Update, Vol. 17.

March 1996) reveals that 53.6% of Ontario's soft drink packaging was diverted from landfill. However. in the same year, CSDA reports that less than one third of all Ontario's consumer packaging was diverted from landfill. I I I I I I I I "The Aluminum Association did a study in 1991 of curbside collection and found recovery rates for aluminum of 24.9%, 44.9% and 59.8% for Rhode Island, Maryland. and Minnesota respectively (as reported in CRS Report to Congress, 1993). In Seattle Washington, a city considered among the best in the U.S. and one that has a user pay system for households, the curbside collection program captured only 26% of aluminum cans, 49% of glass beverage containers and under 5% of PET in 1991 (CRS Report, January 27, 1993). The State of New Jersey is considered to have one of the most comprehensive curbside collection programs in the U.S. In 1990 New Jersey recycled 68% of its glass containers, 69% of its aluminum cans and 7"10 of its plastic containers, for an average of 48%. (New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and Energy as reported in CRS Report to Congress, 1993). ".Stuart Hartley, Letter to municipalities, April 2, 1997.

".CRS Report, January 27, 1993, "From 1992 to 1995, the market share of aluminum beverage containers in the U.S. dropped from 54% to 51 %, whereas the market share of PET beverage containers increased from 38% to 47% over the same period. (Havis Dawson, "Plenty of PET: Beverage World, June, 1996).Comparable data are not yet available for Ontario. ".See footnote 11.

Poor literacy skills cost the Canadian economy approximately $4 billion in lost productivity each year. We at Canada Post Corporation are committed to improving literacy in Canada and have developed numerous partnerships and programs to meet this goal. Nominations are currently being accepted for the fifth annual Canada Post Corporation Flight for Freedom Literacy Awards, and I am seeking your help. I am asking you to increase awareness of the importance of the cause of literacy and the recognition demonstrated by the Flight for Freedom Literacy Awards among your colleagues, associates and constituents. I also ask that you prepare a Flight for Freedom Literacy Award submission on behalf of a worthy business, literacy organization, educator or individual who is making a difference in your community by teaching our fellow citizens the value of good reading and writing skills. The deadline for submissions for the fifth annual Flight for Freedom Literacy Awards is June 20, 1997, with this year's Awards ceremony taking place on September 7, 1997 in Toronto. I enclose infonnation on the Awards process. Your support and promotion of these Awards will help to ensure that we recognize those whose efforts will ultimately benefit all Canadians.

The cost of $350,345 is to be shared one-third by the Federal Government, one-third by the Provincial Government and one-third by the Municipality of Clarington. 3.0 REVJ:EW AND COMMENT 3.1 Imnortant Guidelines The guidelines for the Program are attached for Council's information. Some of the important guidelines are: a) This is a. program for the 1997 construction season. The Extension Amendment to the Canada-Ontario Infrastructure Agreement requires that cost representing the total program allocation be incurred by March 31, 1998. b) The Program is meant to fund projects that would not otherwise be undertaken by the local partner in the 1997-98 Provincial fiscal year (April 1, 1997 to March 31, 1998). Aggregate federal funding from the Program and any other federal funding programs cannot exceed one-third of the total eligible project costs. Any project for which a local partner has received grants or funding under any provincial capital program is not eligible for funding under this Program, except to the extent . REPORT NO.. WD-36-97 PAGE 3 that a project is additional to the part of the project that received such funding. c) Local partners are encouraged to submit applications as soon as possible for projects that can be easily and quickly implemented. For initial allocations, applications for funding should be submitted to the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing by June 13, 1997. Local partners should inform the Ministry inunediately if they do not intend or are unable to proceed with a project or to fully utilize their allocation. d) A Management Conunittee has been established to administer the Extension Amendment to the Canada-ontario Infrastructure Agreement. This conmittee consists of two members appointed by the federal government and two appointed by the provincial government. Upon project approval, a letter of approval will be issued by the Management Conmittee, and a provincial-Local Partner Agreement will be signed covering such items as financial arrangements and payment provisions, eligible costs, financial reporting, audit and inspection provisions, public information requirements, the project details including the implementation of the project, and time lines. 3.2 Bawmanville B.I.A. Street Revitalization proiect The Bowmanville B.I.A. has approached Council and senior staff regarding revitalization works for King Street in downtown Bowmanville. The B. I .A.' s long term goal for the downtown area involves new asphalt pavement, intersections with interlock pavers, new sidewalk, decorative streetlights, increased tree planting aild a revised parking metre scheme. The present application for infrastructure funding is for Phase I of the Street Revitalization Program consisting primarily of sidewalk replacement. The detailed cost estimate for the project is included as Attachment No. 2. In summary, the proposed financing is as follows: I. Federal and Provincial Infrastructure contribution: $233,563 REPORT NO.: WD-36-97 PAGE 4 2. Municipality of Clarington Contribution: Markborough and Clarington Place Funds (assignment re: capital streetscape improvements) 116.782 $350,345 3. Subtotal (Infrastructure Project) Additional Works beyond Infrastructure Funding: Markborough & Clarington Place Funds $133,218 Interest Free Loan 47.997 $531,560 TOTAL PROJECT COST The Bowmanville B.I.A. propose to use the funds assigned to the B.I.A. as part of the development agreements from the two groups concerned (Markborough and Clarington Place) and Infrastructure Funds to finance Phase I of their long .term goal. Most importantly, the Bowmanville B. I .A. through the use of these existing funds, will be covering the Municipality's contribution to the Infrastructure Project. The B.I.A. is aware and concurs with this approach. As well, they are aware that participation in this 1997/98 Infrastructure Project in no way commits the Municipality to future stages of their overall long term vision ($2.1 million in total) . The final aspect of the B.I.A.'s proposal involves financing the balance of the project with an interest free loan from the Municipality (total of $47,997) . They propose that the loan is to be repaid over a six year period using the $10,000 per year assigned from the promotion fund (Markborough and Clarington Place allotment). If Council chooses to grant this request, funds could be allocated from the Impact Escrow Reserve Fund #SOOl-50-X. 3.3 Provincial - Local Partner As mentioned in previous sections, this project will be reviewed by the Management Committee regarding eligible costs under the gnidelines as set out in Attachment No. 1. Upon project approval by letter from the Management Committee, the guidelines for the Program require that an agreement be entered into with the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing. The passing of the proposed By-law attached to this Report will give the authority to the Mayor and Clerk to execute the agreement when it is available. REPORT NO.: WD-36-97 PAGE 5 3.4 Future Infrastructure Pro;ects The Program requires that the local partners pay one-third of the cost of the projects. During this continued time of restraint and zero increases in municipal budgets, it is possible that some municipalities will decide not to become involved with the Program or may decide to utilize only part of their allotment. It is therefore possible that more funds will be made available to municipalities such as Clarington. For this reason,or if the B.I.A. for any reason is unable to commit to the use of these funds, it is reconunended that staff be directed to examine other projects to be undertaken under the Program with the goal of being in a position to proceed with the projects on short notice. 3 .5 Schedu1inQ of Works The proposed Bowmanville B.I.A. Streetscape Revitalization Project provides for the removal and replacement of selective sections of existing concrete sidewalks on King Street East from Scugog Street to Ontario Street. This will mean that, if the project is approved, construction will be taking place on King Street East in Bowmanvi1le for a second year, tentatively conunencing September 1, 1997, to be completed October 30, J.997. We will do everything possible to schedule the work on King Street to reduce the inconvenience to store owners and residents as much as possible.

General A Purpose Additional capital funds are being made available by the Govemment of Canada and the Province of Ontario. to renew and enhance Ontario's physical infrastructUre in local communities. These funds are being made available to municipalities. community health care organizations (CHO's). colleges and universities to generate employment, to promote a . competitive and productive economy and to renew and enhance Ontario's physical infrastructUre, during the 1<J97 constrUction season. We wish to join with your community and others across the province to invest: in your most important infrastructUre repair and renewal projects. While the administrative processes in the Extension are similar to the original Program. note that the scope of eligible projects is significantly different. There Is a focus on the rehabilitation and repair of public facilities that are essential to the fu1:ure health and prosperity of Ontario communities: transportation. health care. post- secondary education, and water and sewage facilities. (Refer to Schedule I - Project Approval Criteria, below, for additional information). In addition, these Guidelines apply only to projects approved under the Extension: please refer to the Guidelines and Application Fonns of 1994 for projects under the original Program. The Govemment of Ontario. has allocated the federal and provincial shares of these capital funds to specific municipalities and colleges and universities, or. to specific projects involving municipalities and CHO's. (hereafter known as local partners). In addition. a single allocation. to be administered by the Ministry of Transportation. will be made for provincial highways. Hence the Program will be administered in distina portions: Municipal Proiect Applications: The Program allows municipalities to subm~ projea applications, based on a funding amount determined by a modified per capita allocation. 8igible projects within the municipal funding allocations include only the renewal and repair of transportation and water and sewage systems; M~Y 23'97 15:46 FR MM~ ROB HE~D OFFICE 416 585 7292 TO 819055632351 p. e4/Z' ' , "'- -.1 ,) '-" r. Provinci~ly Nominated Proiects: This portion of the Progr.un applies only [0 community health organizations. and provincial and private sector transportation, water and sewage projects. The projects have been nominated by the province based on strategic infrastructure needs and priorities in these areas, as per the criteria that apply to each individual sector; . Post-Secondary Education: This portion of the Program applies only to colleges and universities. and allows these institutions to submit project applications, based on specified funding amounts. Each college and university sector share was determined on the basis of current Ministry of Education and Training capital distribution methods. B. Project Funding Local partners will be required to contribute a minimum of one.third of the costs of each project they propose. Provincial transportation infrastructure projects wm be funded on a one-third Canada and two-thirds Ontario basis (Note: For these uanspon:a:tion projects, substitute "Ministry of Transportation" for "local partner" where appropriate in the rest of these guidelines). Private sector contributions and donations will normally be credited to the local partner's share 'to the extent that they add to the local partner's equity. A business case for private sector participation will be required with the project application. The business case will include a description of the economic benefits of the undertaking. This is a one-year extension to the existing COIW program. The Extension Amendment to the Agreement requires that approved projects be completed by March 31. 1998. However, at the request of the Management Committee (see I.F. below), the Federal Minister may provide his written agreement [0 extend the completion date and the funding of an approved project where necessary work is delayed beyond March 31, 1998. due to unforeseen or unavoidable circumstances. or due to prudent planning considerations. C. Relationships to Other Funding Programs The Canada-Ontario Infrastructure Works program is meant to fund projects that would not otherwise be undertaken by the loc~ partner in the 1997-98 fiscal year (April 1/97 to March 31/98). Aggregate federal funding from the Program and any other federal funding prognms c:aJ1not exceed one-third of the total eligible project costs_ Any project: for which a local partner has received grants or funding under any provinci~ capital program is not eligible for funding under this Program. except to the extent that a project is additional to the part of the project that received such funding. 2 ........ ..

Approval Process ). Management Committee has been established to administer the Extension Amendment to the Canada-Ontario InfrastructUre Agreement: This Committee consists of two members appointed by the federal govemment and t:NO appointed by the provincial govemmentJThe federal and provinCial governments have each named a senior official as Co-chair for the Management Committee. In addition, the federal and provincial ministers will appoint one representative as an ex-oflicio member of the Management Committee on behalf of Ontario municipalities. Upon submission of an application, the appropriate provincial line ministry will review the project proposals, in consultation with other ministries, where necessary, to determine if they comply with program criteria. Projects will then be nominated by the provincial co-chair to the Management Committee for approval, based on the program criteria. Local partners will be expected to obain all necessary environmental, technical and other approvals prior to projects being approved. Approval requires the agreement of both the federal and provincial co-chairs. Upon project approval, a letter of approval will be issued by the Management Committee, and a Provincial-Local Partner Agreement will be signed covering such items as financial arrangements and payment provisions, eligible costs, financial reporting, audit and inspection provisions, public information requirements, the project details Including the implementation of the projects, and timelines. In accordance with the provisions of the Extension Amendment to the Canada/Ontario InfrastructUre Agreement, the final date for approval by the COWl Management Committee of projects, and amendments which significantly alter the naOJre and scope of a project, is March 31,1998. Please note that local partners may commence, at their own risk, work on a project prior to obt:aining formal approval by the Management Committee. In these instances, eligible costs incurred on or after April I. 1997 may be claimed retroactively only when and if the project is approved by the Management Committee. 5 p,07/2 l,~ ,/,,/ ,~ :...} ./ , ''7; -V MRY 23'97 15:47 FR MMR ROB HERD OFFICE 416 585 7292 TO 81913566821351 p . e8};:' G. Payments To receive program funds for approved projects, local partners must claim for eligible costs that have been incurred and paid. However, where a local partner claims for expenses incurred but not yet paid, the local partner will have to provide documentation of actual payment within 90 days of the original claim. A claim fonn will be provided at the time of project approval. The Province will flow two-thirds of the supported eligible incurred costs to local partners. This two-thirds includes the federal portion of the program funding. The local parmer will be responsible for covering the remainder of the project costs. The Extension Amendment to the Canada/Ontario InfrastructUre Agreement requires that cost representing the total program allocation be incurred by March 31, 1998 (with the qualification set out in See. loB, above). Therefore. local partners are encouraged to incur and claim projects costs as soon as possible. In order to receive payment for costs incurred in the 1997-98 fiscal year, local partners must ensure that claims covering these COSts are received by the appropriate provincial line ministry on or before March 3 r, 2000. Local partners will be required to submit project completion reports along with their final claim for project COSts. H. Project Amendments Local parmers may ask to amend the scale, scope or timing of approved projects, as well as the projects costs (upward or downward). Requests for amendments to approved projects must be submitted in writing to the appropriate provincial line ministry, accompanied by: . a description of the change, including any new environmental impacts; . detailed reasons/rationale for the change (Please note that unsubstantiated project cost oVerruns will not be considered for additional funding. Sufficient Justification for upward amendments must be provided); and . a revised Schedule 2 fonn, if the amendment relates to a cost or timing change. Requests for amendments to projects which significantly alter the nawre, scope and cost of an approved project should be received by the appropriate provincial fine ministry on or before December 31. 1997, in order to be considered for Management Committee approval by March 31, 1998. 6 MAY 23'97 15:47 FR MMA ROB HEAD OFFICE 416 585 7292 TO 819056682051 P.09/, Allocations are not tranSferable between approved projects as of right. A decrease in one project does not necessarily entide a local partner to a corresponding increase in another project. Project decreases release funds which can. with justification. be the basis of a request for an increase in another approved project. Please note, restrictions apply to situations where a local partner has initially agreed to fund its share of a project at a ratio greater than 1/3 of the total project costs. This approved ratio cannot be changed at a later date because of underspending on another approved project or because of funds remaining in the local partner's allocation. The only instance where the amount of the originally agreed upon federal and provincial contributions can be altered (increased) is where there are justifiable increases in the total costs of a project. I. Project Audit This program and all reportS related to It are subject to audit by the provincial and federal governments. For purposes of conducting audits of specific projectS, the services of the external auditors of local partners may be engaged. The cost of carrying out these audits will be born by the provincial and federal governments. Local partners will be required to maintain their accounts related to an approved project for a period of three years beyond March 31, 1999. J. Program Evaluation An evaluation of this program extension will be undertaken and may include a sample of local partner's projects as case studies for the exercise. Costs of any evaluation will be born by the provincial and federal governments. K. Communications In announcing infrasrrucwre projectS funded under this Program, ceruin requirements must be met. In all communications related to a specific approved project, Canada. Ontario and the local partner must receive equal recognition. This applies to both local signs on the project site and public announcements about the project. All program communications will be prepared by a joint federal-provincial communications group. Before any approved project is announced, local partners will be asked ........ .. 7 MAY 23'97 15:47 FR MMA ROB HEAD OFFICE 416 585 7292 TO 819056682051 P.10/; for their input. Local partners must not. on their own. make any announcements related to the project. News releases will be issued for aU projects. These will be issued by the joint federal- provincial communications group. News releases will contain one quotation from each of. federal, provincial and local partners. Local partners will be asked to approve their local quotations before the news release is issued. A major program objective is to demonstrate the benefits of co-operation among governments and other public bodies. In cooperation with the local parmer. the federal and provincial govemments will arrange eventS to (~unch approved infrastructure projeCts or to celebrate completed projects. These could include ribbon cuttings. news conferences or other similar events. All three partners will be involved in any launch events. Local partners will be responsible for having signs produced for the project site, the COSts of which will be eligible under the program. The provincial and federal governments will issue specific requirements for these signs. Local partners will be informed in their project approval letter if a sign is required. All public information related to calls for project tenders must clearly indicate that the project is funded under this Program. All printed material and signs will be in both official languages. 8 MAY 23'97 15:47 FR MMA ROB HEAD OFFICE 416 585 7292 TO 819056682051 p.

The official must attest that the local partner has passed a resolution authorizing application for the project. Schedule I - Project Approval Criteria The criteria for project consideration are outlined in the Canada-Ontario InfrastrUcture Agreement, as amended, establishing this program. These criteria are aimed at increasing the levels of investment in public infrastructure during the 1997198 fiscal year over and above the levels which would have existed in the absence of the Program. As well. other criteria seek projects which will produce significant benefits to the local. provincial and national economies. While not all projects will be able to satisfy all requirements, local partners are encourage<! to submit substantial proposals which will meet the widest possible range of criteria. 10 M~Y 23'97 15:48 FR MMR Roa HERD OFFICE 416 585 7292 TO 819056682051 p. l3/2 Each project must satisfy i!! of the following five criteria. 1.1 Short-tenn job creation All projectS must create employmem: during the life of the project. Applications should estimate the number of jobs that will be created by the project and provide an analysis of how they arrived at these figures. The number of jobs created should be defined in terms of person weeks (i.e. full time equivalent jobs created on a weekly basis). ReportS outlining the actual number of jobs created will be expected once the project is completed. The tendering process should require COntr.lctOrs to document the actUal number of person-weeks of work. 1.2 Incrementality Local partners will need to demonstrate and certify that the proposed project is either incremental to the approved 1997 capital budget, or represents accelerated capital investment. An explanation will be required as to how the project meets the test of Incrementality. Certifications on Incrementality will be subject to audit. Incremental or acceler.lted investment is defined as: . a project which the local partner has planned for the future, but the start of work on the project will be brought forward by at (east one year; or . a project to be implemented in 1997 but not included for funding in its approved 1997 capital budget, or a project to be implemented in the first quarter of 1998 but not included in its approved 19';8 capital budget; or . . a project which would not have proceeded. or would not have proceeded at the same rate, without the funding available through this program; or . that portion of a project to be implemented in 1997 which is additional to the part of the project included in the approved 1997 capital budget or that portion of a project to be implemented in the first quarter of 1998 which is additional to the part of the project included in the 1998 approved capital budget. Local partners must certify that the proposed project to be implemented in 1997 is not substituting for an eligible qualifying capital investment under their approved 1997 capital budget, and that the proposed project to be implemented in the first quarter of 1998 is not substituting for an eligtble qualifying capital investment under their approved 1998 capital budget.

Eligible projects within the municipal funding allocations would include renewal and repair of tnnsportation and water and sewage systems. but would not include the construction. improvement, refurbishing or repair of municipal buildings such as, fire halls. police stations, town halls. maintenance yards. ete. nor community centres or recreational facilities such as, arenas, swimming pools, parks, playgrounds, ete. Eligible projects for CHO's would include renewal and repair of community health care facilities (excluding those subject to RestructUring Board review). For colleges and universities, eligible projects within the funding allocations would include the renewal and repair of college and university facilities, including those of their affiliated and federated institutions, which are used for academic teaching, research and training purposes, or in general, projects that would otherwise be deemed eligible for funding under the Ministry of Education and Training's 1997-98 Facilities Renewal Program. A project which is a definable phase of a larger initiative may be acceptable, (f the project results in usable infrastructure at the time the project is completed. .The costs . attributable to the approved project will be only those reasonably and customarily associated with initiating and completing the design. planning and construction of the project. . 1,4 Consistent with provincial capital planning practices Project proposals that are brought forward must be consistent with provincial capital planning practices, guidelines and any overall infrastructure development plan(s) affecting the particular area or region of the province, and cannot contravene federal policies and practices. Work funded through the Program must comply with all federal, provincial and local requirements relating to construction and renovation projects, as well as. comply with all applicable labour, procurement, environment:ll and human rights legislation and standards. 1.5 Operating costs Any additional operating costs incurred due to this project would be borne by the local partners. including the full responsibility for the cost of the project's operation, 12 MAY 23'97 15:48 FR MMA ROB HEAD OFFICE 416 58S 7292 TO 8l90566820S1 P. 15/2 maintenance and repair. The project proponent shall confirm that the associated operating and maintenance costs are supportable within the local partner's projected budget in future years. Where projectS would expand provincially-funded programs or facilities. the local partner will confirm that satisfactory arrangements for the increased operating budget requirements are in place or. if necessary. confirm the appropriate provincial ministry's approval of the required operating funding increase. Insert an estimate of any annual operating costs that extend for the first t!HO years beyond the project. completion date and indicate how these will be met. The reduction of operating costs is a significant benefit encouraged by the program. These savings should be quantified and included as support for the project proposal. The following criteria (Application: Schedule I, pg. 2) also apply to the Program; it is expected that projec:tS will meet many of these criteria. Local partners are encouraged to incorporate these objectives in their project design. 1.6 Long-term job creation ProjectS leading direccly to the creation of employment are an essential part of this Program. Projects contributing to broad employment creation either immediately or beyond the completion date of the proje<X are encouraged. 1.7 Enhancing economic competitiveness Projects contributing to enhanced economic competitiveness would: . reduce the costs or increase productivity of businesses; . improve business opportUnities; . provide new economic opporcunities: . enhance the skill base; . improve accessibnity and remove barriers to employment of skilled individuals: or . improve pricing of public services. 1.8 Use of innovative technologies This criteria is not applicable to corw Extension Amendment.

Eligible costs shall include all direct costs properly and reasonably incurred and paid solely and specifically in relation to the confirmed project that are: (a) invoiced against a contract for goods and services necessary for the implementation of the project; or (b) any other costS which are incurred and paid in the performance of the project that are recognized and detennined as relevant by the Management Committee, such as day labour; or (c) direct salaries and other employment benefits of employees of the local partner engaged solely and specifically to carry-out a project whose costs have been approved by the Management Committee as indicated in the completed Schedule II, including the salaries and benefits of employees of local parmers in proportion to their ac:tUal time engaged spedfically in the carrying-out an approved project; or (d) costs of required project signage; or (e) any other administrative costs which have been determined and approved by the Management Committee. with the exception of: . general overhead. including services or works normally provided by the local partner or any other agency of that parmer; . the costs of any lands or any interest therein. including easements. and . interest costS. No claim will be paid by the federal or provincial governments unless received on or before March 31 of the year following the fiscal year in which the costs are incurred. In all drcumscances. claims will be received no later than March 31. 2000. The allocations for approved infrastructUre projectS are meant only to cover net project costs. Net project costs are the gross costs minus the GST and any other rebates. 15 MAY 23'97 15:49 FR MMA ROB HEAD OFFICE 416 585 7292 TO 819056682051 p. 18/2 . Only those direct costs incurred after April I, 1997 and detailed on the attached Schedule to the application and approved by the Management Committee will be eligible for payment. Program funds may only be used to cover eligible costs directly related to an approved project. If a local partner uses its funds from the Canada-Ontario Infrastructure Works program for any purpose which does not comply with the program eligibility criteria, or for which the Management Committee has not granted a special exception, the local partner will be required to return these funds to the Province of Ontario. Cost overruns are the sole responsibility of the local partner who also has the responsibility for completing the project. However, the Management Committee may, at its discretion. approve additional cose-shared project funding. 2.1 Invoices Costs. Maior Contract Estimate of major costs invoiced against a contract for goods and services necessary to Implement the project. 2.2 Other Relevant Contract Costs Other costs that are incurred as a result of the project that are indicated as such by the local parmer and approved by the Management Committee.

This is to ensure that projects do not involve unacceptable environmental effects and is a requirement prior to any federal funding being approved. For reviews to proceed expeditiously. discussions with the federal environmental officer and completfon of the appropriate forms (Schedule 3a and 3b) should take place as soon as the applicant decides on a project. If the applicant thinks that they have an excluded project* in whIch no further environmental assessment is necessary. they need to address Schedule 3a of the COIW application, The top half of this sheet is to be completed by the applicant and faxed or sent to the federal environmental officer (contact numbers listed below). The environmental officer will, after examining the information, contact other applicable federal. departments and make a determination regarding an exemption from further environmenttJ assessment. The decision. rationale (according to CEM) and appropriate signatures (all responsible authorities) are added to the second half of the same sheet and a completed copy will be sent back to the applicant. The amount of work for an environmental assessment, which would be required by the applicant, is dramatically reduced by identifying the status of the project at the beginning of the assessment process. The following information applies to projects that are not exduded. Applicants are encouraged to consult the federal environmental officer to determine the appropriate method for completing their environmental assessment. If the project is not excluded. or involves other federal department trIggers*. or may produce significant effects (social or environmental). the applicant will be sent a completed copy of Schedule 3a with the deCision not to exclude the project and be instructed to proceed with Schedule 3b as per the attached guidelines/inso-uctions. The timely and comprehensive assessment of a project is facilitated by proper completion of Schedule 3b. Reference to environmental reports are suitable for completion of Schedule 3b given that the report is attached. To further reduce the duplication of time and effort, the federal government is attempting to combine the provincial and federal environmental review processes. Under provincial class legislation (where most projects will fall). the applicant is required to perform a self-assessment as to the potential social and environmental impacts of a project. The Environmental Swdy Report produced under this legislation is also appropriate for the federal review. However, CEAA requires additional information which is outlined in Schedule 3b and the guidelines. By adding this information to the provincial self-assessment report, this report would be sufficient for bam provincial and federal reviews. Please include the report with the completed COIW application form. 18 MAY 23'97 15:50 FR MMA ROB HEAD OFFICE 416 585 7292 TO 819056682051 p. 21 /; If you have any questions regarding this procedure. please contact the Environmental Officer at 416-954-6648 (fax 416-954-6654). *NOTE Terms in bold are expl2inecj in detail in dl. glossary.

The information outiined in the COIW application is necessary to determine a) if the project, for which you are seeking support, is excluded under CEM or; b) requires an assessment screening and if so; c) to carry out the screening expeditiously and in accordance with CEAA. To assist the applicant in responding, key terms (bold text) are defined below and the federal government Environment Officer is available at 416-954-6648 (tel) or 416-954-6654 (fax) to respond to questions. This portion of the application does not have to be completed prior to applying to the prog",m, it can be completed a~r submission. CEAA specifies certaIn types of projects as having Insignificant environmental effects, therefore. these projectli do not require an environmental assessment (EA). Examples of these excluded projects are identified below. If your project mil:bJ; be an excluded project, complete sections I and 2 of Schedule 3a and fax it to the Environment Officer as soon as possible. The Environment Officer will confirm whether or not an EA for the project is required. If the project is excluded, it is not necessary to complete Schedule 3b of the application. Projects that are not excluded under CEM must undergo an EA. therefore, Schedule 3b should be completed for each project. . Before completing Schedule 3b, contact the Environment Officer if the project is likely to involve significant environmental effects or public controversy, or requires some other federal authorization that also biggers the requirement for an. environmental assessment. Potential federal EA triggers (required fede",1 departmental involvement) are identified below. Glossarv of Terms The following definitions should be considered In completing Schedules 3a and 3b. Environmem:: environment means components of the Eanh and indudes land, water and alr; all organic and inorganic matter living organisms; and the interacting natu",1 systems that include these components. Environmen;al effects: The EA should consider environmental efl"ecc. of the project, malfunctions or accIdents that may occur In connection with the project, and cumulative environmental effects that are likely to result from the project in comb/nation with other projects or activities that have been or will be carried out, and any other matters that the applicant considers to be relevant (e.g., disposal of materials). Environmental errectli include: .) any change that the project may cause In the environment, including any effect of such change on health and socia-economIc conditions, on physical and cultural heritage, on current use of lands/resources fol'" traditional purposes by aboriginal peoples. or on any structure. site or thing that is of historical, archaeological, paleontological or architecwral significance, and; b) any change to the project that may be caused by the environment; whether such change occurs within or outside of Canada. Excluded project: Certain projects having insignificant environmental effects do not require an EA under CEAA: refer to the exclusion list regulations (Section 15). The following are examples of projects that may be excluded. under cerain circumstances: maintenance or repair of existing physical works such as buHdings. roads. water and wastewater facilities; minor modification of existing buildings; construction of ramps. doors and handrails to facilitate wheelchair access, fences, sidewalks and small parking lotsi modifications of existing roads within existing right-of-wayo; demolition of small existing buildings: and modification of existing culvertS. Complete Schedule 3a and contaCt the fedeno! government Environment Officer if the project may be excluded from further assessment. Additional project details may be required to make an appropriate decennination. Mitigation: Mitigation measUres that are technically and economically f...ible that would be used to eliminate, reduce or control any adverse environmental effects of the project. Monitoring and Follow-up; Monitoring programs must be developed to ensure the mitigation mea<ures identified for the project have, In fact. been implemented. A follow-up program. to be determined by the responsible authority, Is designed to verify a) the accuracy of the QnvironmentaJ assessmenti and, b) the effectiveness of the mitigation measures. Project: An EA is only required for "projects" as defined in CEAA which are not excluded. Under the COIW program, most,.if not all, proJects will be undertakings in relation to an existing phyoical work In which case the EA should consider construction. operation. modification/repair, decommissioning or other activities likely to occur.
