Albert Sweetnam, Executive Vice President, Nuclear Projects, Ontario Power
Generation (OPG), addressed Council to provide an update on two of OPG's Major
Nuclear Projects — the Darlington Refurbishment and Continued Operation
Environmental Assessment and the Darlington New Nuclear Project. Through use of
a PowerPoint presentation, Mr. Sweetnam provided an overview of the Darlington
Refurbishment and Continued Operation Project, reviewed the preliminary findings of
the Environmental Assessment, briefly discussed the community consultation
activities and highlighted next steps regarding the project.
Council Meeting Minutes - 4 - October 24, 2011
Mr. Sweetnam indicated that the project has been broken down into two major phases
for environmental assessment purposes. The first phase is the actual refurbishment
where one unit at a time will be taken off -line, old reactor components will be removed
and replaced, reactor parts will be stored in newly constructed waste storage
buildings, and reactors will be refueled and restarted. He noted that the Continued
Operation phase begins once the reactors have been refueled and restarted and that
each will operate with ongoing maintenance and improvements for the next 25 -30
years. In approximately 2055, the facility will be placed into safe storage prior to
decommissioning. Additional warehousing will also be constructed for the additional
used fuel that will be generated from continued operations. Mr. Sweetnam stated that
over 15 areas of environmental study were conducted including the potential effects
on local traffic and the potential effects of seismic events. He advised that OPG has
undertaken a robust consultation program which included community information
sessions, stakeholder workshops and a municipal peer review with the Region and
Clarington resulting in over 600 comments for OPG staff's disposition. Mr. Sweetnam
indicated that the preliminary results of the Environmental Assessment conclude that
the project will not result in any significant adverse environmental effects, taking into
account proposed mitigation measures. He advised that the bulk of the effects will
occur during the refurbishment activities within 3 km of the site and are relatively
minor. OPG has included specific commitments to manage, mitigate and monitor
potential negative effects. Mr. Sweetnam noted that the project would have positive
effects including employment, business and supplier opportunities and municipal
revenue. Mr. Sweetnam reviewed the EA schedule noting that it is anticipated that the
documents will be submitted to the CNSC by year end. The CNSC will then
undertake internal reviews, hold a public meeting and issue a decision on the EA. Mr.
Sweetnam noted only then can the licence amendment occur to allow the
refurbishment to begin. Mr. Sweetnam discussed the status of the Darlington New
Nuclear Project. He advised that the report of Joint Panel Review was released and
concurs with the Ontario Power Generation's findings that the project will not result in
any significant adverse effects. He noted the Panel's report detailed 67
recommendations with most of them being discussed and understood during the
hearing process. The Government in Council (GIC) will review the Joint Panel's
report, review agency comments, and ultimately decide on the EA. The Licence to
Prepare the Site can only be issued after the GIC approval is given, hopefully in early
2012. OPG will continue to work with key stakeholders to complete the suggested
work and they do not foresee any major problems in meeting the recommendations.
Mr. Sweetnam advised that OPG is participating in the procurement process to select
a vendor and technology and that they are taking steps to ensure that the site is
project -ready while waiting for final government approvals.
In response to questions, Mr. Sweetnam stated that OPG will continue to work with
the CNSC and to represent the views of the Municipality and the Region regarding
cooling towers. He indicated that the Panel has recommended that a study be
undertaken to determine if there will be cooling towers or not. He also indicated that
the Province would negotiate with the new owner of AECL but that the technology
would have to be competitive, a market - driven cost and right for the people of Ontario.
Council Meeting Minutes - 5 - October 24, 2011
Mr. Sweetnam confirmed that the budget for the project is in the range of $6 -10 billion
dollars.

spoke with the Minister of the Environment and brought forward the issue.
The CAO /Secretary- Treasurer stated the summer had been busy for the GRCA and
September will be equally as busy. She stated that the plaque commemorating the 1941
Guelph Conference which had been unveiled in 1967 at Garden Hill Conservation
Authority was put back on the rock. Vandals. had removed the plaque a few years ago.
During that process, the rock was moved as a grove of trees had grown surrounding the
rock and making it very difficult to see. When the rock was moved, the time capsule was
to be moved as well. However the time capsule was found to be damaged .and water had
leaked inside, so the time capsule was opened. The CAO stated she has been in contact

L. Corrigan inquired about CLOCA's attendance at the Green for Life Tour and asked for a brief summary and highlights. C. Darling
noted that he and P. Sisson attended for CLOCA and provided the following information: The purpose of the tour was to inform
attendees of the operation. Contaminated soil is brought to the site, placed on a conveyor and sprayed with a micro- organic
substance, then left for five or six days. The process makes the product less contaminated; however, it is still a waste product that has
to be disposed of. L. Corrigan asked if staff are aware of any issues regarding MOE standards of practice. Discussion ensued.
R. Hooper inquired if a permit application was received for a solar panel installation in Bowmanville. C. Darling noted that no
contact had been made, to date.

"That the minutes of the August 25th, 2011 meeting be approved."
Guest: Kim Gavine provided an overview of the Oak Ridges Moraine legislation and the
Foundation.
The Oak Ridges Moraine Foundation (ORMF) is a non - profit organization mandated to
preserve and enhance the Oak Ridges Moraine (Moraine). Originally established as a
granting agency in 2002 following the implementation of the Provincial Government's
Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan (ORMCP), the ORMF has successfully
Agricultural Advisory Committee of Clarington October 13, 2011
provided funds to many different partners in support of stewardship, education,
research, the Oak Ridges Moraine Trail and land securement projects.
The ORMF's role has recently changed, and while our granting role is currently
suspended, we still have a pivotal role to play if the Moraine is to remain protected in
the future. The ORMCP is scheduled for review in 2015, and while plenty of positive
work has been done on the Moraine over the last eight years, there are still outstanding
goals that need to be met. We believe that as a result of our stakeholder, relationships,
ability to effectively manage provincial funds and knowledgeable understanding of
environmental issues relating to the Moraine that the ORMF is best positioned to assist
the Province in meeting the previously established goals of the ORMCP. The tasks
associated with these goals include:
• Policy and Monitoring Efforts: The primary objective of the Plan is to ensure that
only land and resource uses that protect the ecological and hydrological integrity
of the Moraine are permitted. The ORMF can take a strong leadership role in the
development and implementation of a monitoring system for the Moraine to
prepare for the 2015 review.
• Land Stewardship: The ORMCP's regulatory measures alone will not ensure the
Moraine's ecological and hydrological functions are protected. Non - regulatory
measures such as land restoration are necessary for the Moraine to remain
preserved and enhanced. The ORMF has proven successful in supporting such
activities.
• Land Securement: Land securement ensures that areas on the Moraine with high
ecological and hydrological value can be acquired and managed appropriately.
The ORMF has secured more than 5,500 acres of Moraine land and would
ideally like to secure more if refunded.
• Education and Outreach: Protection of the Moraine requires public support,
which is gained through education and knowledge. The ORMF is capable of
helping citizens make choices in their daily lives that are less harmful to our
natural environment based on an extensive knowledge about the Moraine and
Moraine - related issue.
Taken from http://www.moraineforlife.org/about/index.php
Kim provided very comprehensive packages of information for the members (those not
in attendance, I have packages for you).
Kim emphasized the work that has been done by the Foundation on "measuring
success" and that monitoring and baseline information has been underfunded by the
Province and not a priority.
Kim explained that initially the Foundation was going to wind down their activities but
after the response they received from stakeholders that they have made a request* to
the Provincial Government for anew funding envelope. A request has also been made
to the Environmental Commissioners office for:
The Oak Ridges Moraine Foundation has requested a review of the existing policies
legislation, regulation and /or technical guidance relating to the protection and
Agricultural Advisory Committee of Clarington October 13, 2011
management of the Oak Ridges Moraine pursuant to section 61 of the Environmental
Bill of Rights. The Foundation contends that a number of instruments relating to the
protection of the Oak Ridges Moraine warrant review for consideration of revisions to
existing policies, amendments to existing legislation, regulations and /or supporting
technical guidelines to provide for the more effective implementation of the Oak Ridges
Moraine Conservation Plan, The Oak Ridges Moraine Foundation is asking the people
of Ontario to support their Application for Review to the Environmental Commissioner of
Ontario's Office and urge the Premier and all applicable ministries to address the gaps
and deficiencies now!
Kim indicated that there has been a letter writing campaign occurring and encouraged
members of the group and the group to submit letters. Information can be found on the
web site at http:// www. moraineforlife .orq/projects /redflags,php
Business Arising
Trees for Rural Roads
Faye distributed flyers for the program, they were available for the Orono Fair and there
will be additional promotion of the program by the CA's and through Clarington.
Guidelines have been drafted and an application form. The Municipality would fund the
trees from the environmental stewardship account and the land owner would provide in-
kind labour for the planting, maintenance and also the site along the roadway.
It is anticipated that uptake will be slow until the program becomes known, but it also fits
with many other initiatives. As .such, it may be replicated by others and could garner
additional funding in future.
Whitebelt Resolution
Council approved the resolution put forward by the committee and referred it to the
Official Plan Review process.
Orono Fair Display
Was updated for this year and at the fair.
Council Referrals — Agri -Food Innovation Excellence, Premier's Awards are due
November 14, 2011. Faye has additional application forms if anyone wishes to submit.
Ontario Wildlife Damage Compensation Program- Faye distributed the schedules for
payment from damage. There are some questions about the compensation. Faye
sought clarification from the Clerk on the compensation for items such as raccoon and
wild turkey, etc. The Clerk indicated that these animals are being raised for fur, food or
release and the compensation applies to them if they are killed by other wildlife.
Agricultural Advisory Committee of Clarington October 13, 2011
Liaison Reports
DAAC — September 15 DAAC tour in Uxbridge area was very good. Some glitches with
invitations, a number of northern municipality politicians attended.
DRFA — next meeting is November 15 for executive, DRFA is looking for additional
board members, if you know of anyone interested please contact Mary Ann. The High
school program to inform students about the opportunities in the agricultural sector was
well received; over 350 students from Anderson Collegiate participated. Farm
Connections is scheduled for April 3, 4, 5 in Brooklyn, new committee members are
welcome.
CBOT — Jenni informed group that CBOT tour with Mayor and Councillors of 3 industrial
sites in Clarington, well received and very educational. It highlighted the types of
industry in Clarington and the challenges to expansion (servicing is one of the major
issues). The Mayor's Annual address to CBOT was on September 27th at Newcastle
Community Hall, highlighted the economic well being of Clarington, particularly in
comparison to other surrounding municipalities from a tax rate, reserves, etc. Durham
East 4 -H was one of the benefactors of the evening.
Clarington Farmer's Market — Brenda has stepped down as Chair, did not have the time
and energy to guide the market as it should be. There are processes in place for
approving vendors and guidelines for type of vendors; however the Board is not being
involved in. The market is being run by the vendors and the Market Manager. The
stalls appear to be filled for the season. While the AACC helped assist in setting up the
market, input at this time does not appear to be necessary.
Other Business
Farmer's Parade of Lights is December 7th starting at 6p.m. in Enniskillen and will be to
Tyrone by 7:30 p.m.
Future Agendas
Jenni will ask St. Marys if they wish to present regarding their algae /biodiesel project.

2. Adoption of
a) Notes from June, 2011 Meeting
There were no errors or omissions identified in the meeting notes.
3. Detour procedure through St. Marys
Guest - Chief Gord Weir, Clarington Fire Department
Chief Gord Weir distributed a series of maps showing the D8 and D9 detour routes for public
use as well as the shorter D7 route to be used only by emergency service vehicles. Chief Weir
explained the Transport Canada requirement that anyone using the D8 detour route must sign a
log because the dock is considered an international port.
It was noted that, in an emergency where the safety of residents is at risk, the requirement to
sign in would be set aside if stopping to sign the log would increase the risk to residents. It was
also noted that the location to sign in could be moved to the more westerly portion of the D8
route.
The benefits of additional detour signage, especially on the D9 route, were discussed.
