Lake, General Manager, Peterborough Utilities Commission, advising of a provision of service for billing and settlement with IMO. He advises that as deregulation is implemented, our local distribution company (wires company), will be required to perform the billing function for all energy suppliers operating from within our municipality. Most utilities today do not have the hardware and software required to perform the billing function for multiple vendors with multiple rate structures. Also, in addition, our local distribution company will be required to perform a settlement function with the Independent Market Operator. This requires calculating the load curve for all customers in the municipality to calculate their bill, based on the rates of the energy supplier, or for customers who have not chosen a specific supplier, applying the hourly spot market prices to their load curve. He expects at this point, no utility has software for a settlement system, as the rules are not fully developed. He advises that in Peterborough they have just installed new hardware and software in their Civic Data Centre (CDC). The CDC performs all of the computer services for the City and the PUC. One of their largest systems is their Utility Management System, which will handle multiple vendors and multiple rates. The software is working now in deregulated gas, and deregulated electric utilities. They do not yet have a settlement system but will be choosing one in the next few months. He is offering his services and would be pleased to discuss options with the Municipality of Clarington.

He advises that this is their 15 year anniversary and they would like a major event to cap off their anniversary year.

They are proposing a rather substantial donation in the amount of $15,000 towards building a park/playground somewhere in Bowmanville in exchange for the consideration of changing the name of Waverley Park to read Bowmanvile Optimist Park.

Rainbow trout have begun to spawn and have been making their way from Lake Ontario up through the creek to their spawning sites for the last two weeks or so. It appears that there were fish staging in the creek at the time of the spill, however, some of these have since died. Fishing season opens at the end of April and there will be people who intend to eat what they catch. He feels that it is imperative that a public information meeting with the relevant public agencies present be held as soon as possible so that our community can obtain factual information about what caused the spill, what impacts have been detected and those that are expected, and related public health issues that need to be addressed.

In December 1998, Premier Harris came to Ottawa to talk about the need to create a level playing field in the competition for construction jobs between Ontario and Quebec. The Premier spoke of a situation where six times as many Quebeckers were working on the Ontario side, as Ontarians working on the Quebec side. The Premier stated that if Quebec had not removed the key barriers to Ontarians getting construction jobs in Quebec by April 1, 1999, the Ontario government would act. After three months of intense but largely unproductive discussions, the barriers were still not down. Ontario had to act. It did. He is requesting that in the interest of Ontario workers, we encourage you to join the fight for fairness and follow the Ontario government's lead and voluntarily stop awarding construction contracts to companies from Quebec. (Receive for Information) 1-28 Jed Goldberg, President, Earth Day Canada, advising of several groups that object to Earth Day Canada's Middle R. Program. The Middle R. education program, now in its third year, was created to communicate the environmental and economic benefits of REUSE. The information in the Middle R. has been meticulously researched. The program has been requested by school boards, teachers and principals representing almost 70% of the elementary and middle schools in Ontario, and has been praised by professional environmental educators, teachers and parents. (Receive for Information) 1-29 Nancy Paish, Clerk -Treasurer, Township of Emily, forwarding correspondence addressed to the Township of Fenelon with respect to the 1999 Kawartha Conservation Budget. She advises that their Council did not concur with the resolution of the Township of Fenelon and stated that all member municipalities, whether in support or not, paid towards the costs of the dissolution process and there is no difference in the budget appeal process. (Receive for Information) Summary of Correspondence - 7 - April 12, 1999 1-30 Press Release, Ontario Volunteer Emergency Response Team Inc., advising that the Ontario Volunteer Emergency Response Team (OVERT) is a non-profit charitable organization that provides emergency ground search and rescue services in partnership with a variety of police services. OVERT is currently seeking a limited number of volunteers who live in or close to Cobourg, Port Hope, Lindsay and the Durham Region. These volunteers are required to participate in a variety of functions such as looking for missing persons, evidence searches, fund-raising, and public relations. Successful candidates will be trained in search techniques, crime scene awareness, lost person behaviour and search probability tables. Anyone interested in joining OVERT is invited to attend an information session on April 15`h that will be held at Durham College (2000 Simcoe St. N., Oshawa) in Room B238.

Lake, General Manager, Peterborough Utilities Commission, advising of a provision of service for billing and settlement with IMO. He advises that as deregulation is implemented, our local distribution company (wires company), will be required to perform the billing function for all energy suppliers operating from within our municipality. Most utilities today do not have the hardware and software required to perform the billing function for multiple vendors with multiple rate structures. Also, in' addition, our local distribution company will be required to perform a settlement function with the Independent Market Operator. This requires calculating the load curve for all customers in the municipality to calculate their bill, based on the rates of the energy supplier, or for customers who have not chosen a specific supplier, applying the hourly spot market prices to their load curve. He expects at this point, no utility has software for a settlement system, as the rules are not fully developed. He advises that in Peterborough they have just installed new hardware and software in their Civic Data Centre (CDC). The CDC performs all of the computer services for the City and the PUC. One of their largest systems is their Utility Management System, which will handle multiple vendors and multiple rates. The software is working now in deregulated gas, and deregulated electric utilities. They do not yet have a settlement system but will be choosing one in the next few months. He is offering his services and would be pleased to discuss options with the Municipality of Clarington. (Receive for Information) 1-32 John Sheridan, President, Bell Ontario, advising of an exciting strategic partnership that BCE Inc. has initiated with Ameritech of Chicago, Illinois to accelerate the growth of Bell Canada and strengthen its position in the North American telecommunications market. This investment represents a strong statement of confidence in Bell Canada and the Canadian telecommunications industry. Bell Canada gains access beyond its traditional borders and ensures growth at home through the development and export of Canadian products to U.S. and global markets.

They are proposing a rather substantial donation in the amount of $15,000 towards building a park/playground somewhere in Bowmanville in exchange for the consideration of changing the name of Waverley Park to read Bowmanvile Optimist Park.

It appears that there were fish staging in the creek at the time of the spill, however, some of these have since died. Fishing season opens at the end of April and there will be people who intend to eat what they catch.

This year the Authority is working with the Children's Groundwater Institute (CGI) to plan a larger four-day event for the Second Annual Durham Children's Groundwater Festival. The Festival will be held from September 27th - October 1st at Camp Samac in Oshawa. Last year the Festival attracted approximately 720 students and this year attendance will increase to 4000 students. The goal of the Festival is to increase the awareness of grade four students concerning water issues and motivate them to become water stewards in their home, classroom and community. The Festival is a full day event and consists of hands-on, interactive activities with messages relevant to their daily lives. Through the learning centres students will soak up knowledge on properties, uses, connections and importance of water and habitat. They will also discover the essential role water plays in the social and economic development of Ontario. All activities are designed to meet the new common curriculum standards. A school registration package will be issued to the organizing committee members in March for distribution to school program coordinators. Three teacher workshops will be held in the beginning of June at which time they will receive pre-program and follow-up activities to be included into their curriculum. Please see attached Festival proposal(separately bound). Background: Children's Groundwater Institute Groundwater Festivals were first initiated by the Children's Groundwater Institute (CGI) in 1994. CGI is an industry sponsored, non-profit, charitable organization initiated by Ciba-Geigy. Their mission is to develop educational activities, materials and festivals on a local level to promote water environmental education to children. The Children's Groundwater Institute believes the value of water and the protection of the environment is fundamental to our existence and therefore deserves our attention. Since the initial festival in 1994, the Children's Groundwater Institute has held 15 festivals in Ontario educating over 45,000 children. Financing The Financing of the 1999 Durham Festival is the responsibility of the Children's Groundwater Institute. The Authority will be coordinating a local sponsorship program to supplement operating costs. The cost to host the 1999 Festival is estimated at $40,000 - $41,000, which includes busing costs for students. .A majority of this cost will be recovered through an admission fee of $6.00/student (busing included) with the balance raised through local sponsorships. cont'd.....

Nicholson Seconded by J. Gray THAT the Authority establishes a Committee of the Whole, comprised of all members of the Authority, to replace the Executive Committee. The Committee of the Whole to retain the same responsibilities as the previous Executive Committee. The purpose of this report is to request the Board give further consideration to the role and functions of a Committee of the Whole, beyond simply a replacement for the activities of the former Executive Committee. CLOCA Administrative Regulations Revised. November 17. 1992 "POWERS AND FUNCTIONS OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE 21. Subject to the Conservation Authorities Act and to any power or function being reserved to the Authority by these regulations, the Authority Executive Committee shall, (a) enter into such contracts or agreements as are necessarily incidental to the erection of works under anv project that has previously been approved by the Authority. (b) consider and authorize where necessary, the purchase of such equipment and services as are necessary for carrying out the approved work of the Authority. (c) to direct and administer the Authority's Personnel Policy. (d) approve and authorize payment of accounts in the interim period between General Authority Meetings. (e) regularly scrutinize and investigate all aspects of the Authority's finances and, when necessan , recommend appropriate action to the Authority. (f) before every Annual General Meeting, consider the financial needs of the Authority in relation to its various projects, general conservation activities and administrative processes for the ensuing year, and draw up a proposed budget for presentation to the Annual General Meeting. (g) receive delegations on behalf of the Authority and if necessary, report and make recommendations thereon to the Authority. cont'd....... 2 S.R. 430499 February 10, 1999 IMS: ABDA2 Page 2 Schedule 4-20 of Mar. 2/99 (h) decide and recommend to the General Authority such matters of policy and practice as are not covered by these regulations. (i) appoint subcommittees from its own members or otherwise to study, consider and report to the Executive Committee on any subject over which the Executive Committee has jurisdiction. 22. The Executive Committee may consider and investigate all proposed land purchases in connection with any approved project or other approved activity of the Authority. No purchase or option of land shall be made until the General Authority has approved by resolution the recommendation of the Executive Committee. 23. On request, the Executive Committee may approve transfer of funds up to $2,000.00 from the amount allocated in one section of the budget for the approved activities to the account of another. Where the requested transfer is in excess of $2,000.00, the Executive Committee shall consider the matter and make recommendations to the General Authority. In no case shall monies that have been raised for a specific approved project be transferred to any other project or item of expenditure without the prior approval of the General Authority. 24. Notwithstanding any powers given to the Executive Committee by previous sections, the Executive Committee shall not approve any expenditures that result in the total amount budgeted for all projects, general conservation activities and administrative activities being exceeded by the total expenditures for these items during the current year. If it should appear that the total expenditure on all projects, and other items during the year will exceed the current budget, the Executive Committee shall order the cessation of all unessential Authority activities and make recommendations on the problem to the General Authority at the earliest possible opportunity." It is the opinion of staff that the regular business of the Authority can be handled by the Board of Directors meeting on a monthly basis. In 1998 the average duration of meetings was: Board of Directors Executive Committee 1 hr. 12 min. 46 min. Given there was almost always an element of duplication between Board of Directors and Executive Committee agendas, two hours seems to be a reasonable estimate for average meeting duration based on the Board convening once a month. The Committee of the Whole format affords an opportunity for the Board of Directors to consider certain matters in more depth and under less formal procedures than the Board of Directors meeting format. Items upcoming that would benefit from Committee of the Whole discussion include the following: 1. Lynde Shores Management Plan: final draft 2. Corporate Strategy Review 3. 1999 Budget and Multi Year Forecasts cont'd..... 3 S.R. 4304-99 IMS: ABDA2 4. Personnel Policy and Staff Compensation Plan 5.

NEWS FROM ONTARIO HYDRO March 08, 1999 MONTHLY NUCLEAR REPORT CARDS REFLECT HIGHER TARGETS The Ontario Hydro monthly nuclear report cards that were released today have a number of changes, including increased performance standards. "We have shown steady improvement, but it's time we raised the standards," said Carl Andognini, Executive Vice -President and Chief Nuclear Officer. "We can only achieve our goal of being among the best in the world if our targets reflect the highest standards." Because standards have been raised, it may appear in the short term that the performance of our nuclear operations have declined. "Some of the `excellent' standards we achieved last year, will only be `good' when measured against this year's targets. However, the overall progress, as measured by the OHN performance index, will continue to move upward," Andognini said. The report cards also have a number of other changes. They show some trends in performances and also contain a number of renamed categories. Among the changes: Radioactive Waste Produced will have more restrictive targets, and Spills, Major and Moderate replaces Spills Reportable to the MOE. This is a tougher measure and it will be harder to achieve the "excellent" standard that was recorded last year. Employee safety targets will be raised in all three measured areas. The report cards, which measure such things as production, radiation exposure, safety issues and overall nuclear performance, are made available to a wide -range of groups, including the communities in which Ontario Hydro's nuclear generation stations are located. The material is also available at Ontario Hydro Nuclear Information Centres, on the Ontario Hydro web site (www.hydro.on.ca) and by "Fax -On -Demand", by calling 1-800-238-7718 and asking for story code 10100.

Dose to Public will not be reported at the OHN level, as this indicator measures the dose received by the public adjacent to each nuclear site, and does not roll -up to an OHN total. What had been reported previously at the OHN level was simply the highest dose figure generated by any of OHN's facilities. As such it was not representative of either the dose received by the average Ontario resident, nor the average resident adjacent to a nuclear facility. Targets are unchanged from 1998. The dose reported by each site will be the combined total from both "A' and "B" plants, rather than the former practise of reporting the dose figures separately for plants sharing the same site. Spills - Major & Moderate replaces the Spills Reportable to the MOE indicator reported last year. Targets for the new indicator are significantly more difficult to achieve.

Since 1995, we have been committed to finding the best way to deliver government services and to redefine the role of governments in Ontario to make them more accountable to taxpayers. We have found efficiencies and savings, cut the size of government, cut taxes and invested in priorities such as health care and education. Our plan is working. Taxpayers are responding with renewed optimism and Ontario's economy is responding with jobs and growth. The government has always been open to ideas that ensure that efficient and quality services are delivered by the level of government best able to respond to taxpayers' needs. In this regard, the province would like to acknowledge the assistance and advice from the municipal sector and to particularly thank Michael Power, the President of AMO and its member municipalities for their advice on the transfer of services. Municipalities have asked us to assist in reducing their financial risk and to provide them with greater certainty regarding their new responsibilities so that they are better positioned to deliver benefits to taxpayers. On February 24, 1999, AMO wrote to the Premier asking the government to reconsider how land ambulance and public health services are funded. AMO has also expressed concerns regarding the delivery of land ambulance dispatch services and has asked for more time before land ambulance is transferred to the local level. We have listened and, today, are responding to those concerns. We are pleased to work with the municipal sector under a new partnership arrangement to deliver land ambulance and public health. Effective January 1, 1999 the province will share 50 per cent of municipal costs for public health and land ambulance approved by the Ministry of Health. I-21 To ensure that all property taxpayers benefit from the change in cost-sharing for public health and land ambulance, municipalities will receive a $20 million Community Reinvestment Fund (CRF) Bonus equivalent to 15 per cent of the CRF that would otherwise be reduced due to lower land ambulance and public health costs. This will allow municipalities that receive CRF payments to be better off and better positioned to pass lower program costs on to their taxpayers. These measures will reduce costs to municipalities by $290 million, resulting in overall net savings of $150 million. We are extending the deadline for the final transfer of land ambulance to January 1, 2001. We recognize, however, that municipalities are at different stages of readiness and many municipalities are poised to accept responsibility. Therefore, any municipality that is ready to assume this service earlier should do so. The province will also continue to work through AMO to deal with dispatch and other implementation issues to ensure the transfer of services goes smoothly. You will note the welcome change to the costing methodology for OPP non -contract policing which has been revised for 1999, reducing costs for municipalities across the province by an estimated $22 million. Many of you have also asked for POA payments. In April, the province will provide one- time grants to municipalities in accordance with the amounts and distribution of Provincial Offences Act net revenues that were used to determine municipalities' 1998 CRF allocations. These payments will be made in early April, 1999. Grants in respect of POA net revenues from January 1, 1999 will be paid when transfer agreements with the Ministry of the Attorney General have been signed. 1998 Year -End LSR Adjustment Last August at the AMO Conference, I made a commitment that we would carry out a year-end review of the 1998 LSR programs. I also said municipalities which experienced program cost decreases would retain their 1998 CRF allocation. At the same time, an assurance was given that no municipality would be disadvantaged from increased program costs. Our hard work to find efficiencies and savings is paying off and we are pleased to confirm that LSR costs have significantly declined for the majority of municipalities, providing a benefit of $170 million for 1998. Program costs are continuing to decline, and for 1999, municipal LSR costs are expected to decline $390 million from the cost estimates released on March 31, 1998. WAM For those municipalities that have experienced increased program costs in 1998, there will be an additional $20 million provided as part of the year-end CRF adjustment. Information pertaining to your 1998 CRF year-end adjustment and 1999 CRF allocations along with a detailed guide will be sent to your municipality by courier over the next several days. CRF year-end adjustments for 1998 will be reflected in the 2"° quarter 1999 CRF payments to be made in April, 1999. Assistance for 1999 In 1998, the province provided additional support to municipalities through the Special Circumstances Fund. The Honourable Chris Hodgson, Chair of Management Board and Minister of Northam Development and Mines, will announce shortly details for a Special Circumstances Fund for 1999. In addition, the Municipal Restructuring Fund announced last year to support municipal restructuring is being extended. To assist northern municipalities with transitional costs associated with the annexation of unincorporated areas, funding will be available under Northern Transition Assistance. Details regarding these programs have been communicated to eligible municipalities and allocations will be announced next month. In the next few weeks, the province, for the first time, will be making payments -in -lieu of taxes to municipalities for property the provincial government occupies and leases from tax exempt organizations such as the federal government and municipalities. My colleague, The Honourable Al Leach, Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing will be communicating with you directly on this matter. In 1998, municipalities benefited from an estimated $170 million saving due to the reduced employer's contribution rate and a one-year suspension of employer contributions to the Ontario Municipal Employees Retirement System (OMERS). For 1999, municipalities are estimated to save more than $200 million in reduced OMERS costs. The significant reductions in program costs, the changes announced today in cost- sharing arrangements and the additional assistance being provided to municipalities will help you to meet your responsibilities, as service providers, employers and elected officials. These changes and assistance will also help municipalities to meet their obligations under the Pay Equity Act. Extension of Deadlines In order to provide municipalities with more time to factor these changes into their budgets and to pass on savings to taxpayers, the upper tier rating by-law deadline will be extended 30 days to April 30, 1999. In addition, we are responding to concerns for additional time to send out tax notices in respect of 1998 that implement the requirements of the 10-5-5 capping provisions. To assist in this regard, the province will be extending the March 31 and June 30 school board remittances and will make equivalent payments on behalf of municipalities directly to school boards. With respect to the March 31 school board remittance, municipalities that send out recalculated 1998 tax notices before March 31 will be required to repay the instalment. without interest, to the province by April 30. Municipalities that send out tax notices after March 31 will have to repay the province 30 days after tax notices are mailed. School board remittances must be repaid no later than July 31. The province will also extend the June 30 school board remittance until July 31 for municipalities that have not billed by June 1, The timing of municipalities sending out recalculated 1998 tax notices may also affect the 1999 interim bills. For municipalities that are affected, the province will assist by providing interest relief for the non -school board share of the 1999 interim bills, up to July 31. Municipalities may apply to the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing for this assistance, which will be granted based on the timing of adjusted 1998 tax notices. As promised, the province will also be providing assistance to compensate for the administrative costs of billing for those municipalities that have met the requirements of the 10-5.5 capping provisions of Bill 79. Details will follow shortly. To address municipal concerns about the maintenance of the frozen assessment listing, the province is prepared to support centralized management of the frozen assessment listing for 1998, 1999 and 2000. Again. 1 would like to thank municipalities for their co-operation and advice during the past transition year and to extend our commitment to continue to work with our municipal partners in delivering quality services in a more efficient and cost-effective way for all taxpayers. I am confident that the reduction in the LSR program base as well as additional funding commitments will provide municipalities with the certainty, the tools and time required to ensure that taxpayers benefit from the realignment of local services.

The Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority is a potentially affected downstream property owner, namely the Bowmanville Harbour Conservation Area. This conservation area has been established around the Bowmanville Marsh, which not only provides habitat for migratory birds, but also forms part of the Bowmanville Creek system which is recognized as a high quality cold water fishery. It is our understanding that the fuel oil spill at the Goodyear plant occurred on March 7, 1999, however, it wasn't until March 11 that the Authority received "official" notification of the spill from enforcement personnel of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. During staffs presence on the site (March 12 to March 16), it became apparent that the concern was not only for the visible oil product within the waters of Bowmanville Creek, but also for the fuel oil trapped under the ice, particularly in the area of West Beach Road. At the direction of Authority staff, an impermeable boom was installed across the mouth of the Bowmanville Marsh on March 15. It is hoped that the low water levels within the marsh at the time of the spill, as well as the impermeable boom, has prevented fuel oil from entering the Marsh. Authority staff observed no visible evidence of fuel oil in the Marsh during their time on the site. Staff will continue to monitor the Marsh area for any such evidence. cont'd... 2 What we do on the land is mirrored in the water; I-33 Municipality of Clarington Attention: Mavor Diane Hamre Centrai Lake Ontario Conservation March 24, 1999 Page 2 A recent creek walk, attended by Goodyear Canada, Detox Environmental, Environment Canada, Ontario Ministry of the Environment and Authority staff, was conducted on March 22 to review the cleanup measures and their effectiveness. Staff acknowledge the effort put forth by Goodyear and Detox Environmental on the cleanup, however, some fuel oil is still evident at the source of the spill. Cleanup efforts are continuing in this area and investigations into the extent of fuel oil within the soil is almost complete. It was evident during this creek walk that fuel oil exists within the soil and sediment along the immediate creek banks along the length of the creek. In some cases, fuel oil was also evident on the aquatic vegetation within and adjacent to the creek. Staff have concerns for the amount of fuel oil in these areas as well as what efforts will be undertaken to address this potential chronic problem and its possible effects on the Bowmanville Creek fishery and any associated wildlife use of the creek. Discussion has occurred as to what the best recourse is to deal with the fuel oil within the sediments and soils of the creek, however, at this point there are no real firm answers. Concerns would be had for any efforts that cause further disruption of the aquatic ecosystem of the Bowmanville Creek, particularly if such cleanup efforts require major works on the creek. Overall, the cleanup of visible fuel oil in the creek and within the ice has been very effective, however, Authority staff are unsure as to the potential long term effects, if any, that this spill may have on the fish, aquatic vegetation and wildlife which use the Bowmanville Creek. At the present time, the spring run of rainbow trout within the creek has commenced. Authority staff have arranged with Mr. D. Lawson to open the fish ladder at the Goodyear Dam to provide access for the fish to the creek upstream of the affected portions of the creek. The ladder will be opened on March 27. It should be noted that the fish ladder was closed at the time of the spill and during the bulk of the cleanup efforts. This measure should address any immediate potential impacts upon the rainbow trout run within the Bowmanville Creek. In conclusion, while the cleanup efforts undertaken to date have been effective, Authority staff are still unclear as to what potential long term effects this spill may have on the aquatic ecosystem of the Bowmanville Creek. At what point will these efforts be considered complete and on what basis will this decision be made? cont'd... 3 Municipality of Clarington Attention: Mavor Diane Hamre Central Lake Ontario Conservation March 24, 1999 Page 3 We trust you find the above satisfactory in outlining the Authority's concerns regarding the fuel oil spill.

MEMO TO: The Chairman and Members, CLOCA Board of Directors FROM: Robert Hersey, Provincial Offences Officer SUBJECT: Fuel Oil Spill at Goodyear Canada Bowmanville Creek As the Members may be aware, on March 7 a fuel oil spill occurred at the Goodyear plant in Bow tanvillt As a result of this spill, approximately 500 gallons of No. 2 Fuel Oil entered the Bowmanville Creek. The spill occurred at a storage tank behind the Goodyear plant, in the immediate vicinity of the Goodyear pot( Authority staff were first notified of this spill by the Department of Fisheries and Oceans Enforcement staff on March 11. They were concerned for the impact of this spill on the fish population of Bowmanville Cr( and as the spill may be pursued as a breach of the Fisheries Act, Authority staff were asked to be a presen, on the site. On March 12, Authority staff met with the plant manager and environmental manager of Goodyearto discL the fuel oil spill. At that time, Goodyear explained how the spill occurred and what measures were being undertaken to effect a cleanup of the oil product within the Creek. Authority staff also met with a biologi from Environment Canada who had been on-site all week long to offer advice on the cleanup. Authority staff remained on-site to observe the cleanup and offer advice from March 12 to March 16 at a at which time staff from Environment Canada returned to the site. During the weekend (March 13 and 14) Authority staff collected fish samples for the Department of Fisheries and Oceans and Environment Cana, for possible evidence in any legal matter which may arise out of the fuel spill. Staff also assisted the Tor_ Wildlife Centre by providing information on the location of wildlife which may have been affected by the f spill. Staff were also contacted by the Coast Guard to observe the mouth of the Bowmanville Creek for a signs of the fuel oil entering Lake Ontario. As a result of the spill, Authority staff had concerns for the fuel oil entering the Bowmanville Marsh. St requested that an impermeable boom be placed at the mouth of confluence of the Marsh and Bowmanville Creek, in order to prevent fuel oil from getting into the Marsh and possibly affecting the wildlife. Detox Environmental, Goodyear's contractor for the cleanup, readily installed this boom at the location specific Authority staff. Cleanup efforts generally consisted of installation of absorbent booms across the creek and removal of contaminated ice from the creek. Contaminated ice which was removed was returned to the Goodyear plat for containment. During the course of staffs presence on the site, it became apparent that oil product ui the ice was the main concern. Oil product found under the ice was a problem as far south as the Bowmanville Harbour Conservation Area. The removal of this ice necessitated the access to Authority owned lands at the Harbour in order to facilitate ice removal, [tamely in the area of West Beach Road. cont'd............... IMS: RDFA2 March 23, S.R.: 432499 Pa Authority staff attended a creek walk with Environment Canada, Detox Environmental, Goodyear and the Ontario Ministry of the Environment on March 22. The purpose of this creek walk was to review the res of the cleanup effort on the creek. During this walk, it was apprent that the major area of concern was at Goodyear plant at the location of the spill. Fuel oil was still being observed along the creek banks, likely result of the oil moving through the soil into the creek. Containment efforts at the site has resulted in the collection of some of the oil, however, it is apparent that some oil product is still making its way into the Creek. Some oil sheen is still being observed downstream of the plant, particularly in areas of slower me waters (pools and back eddies). As of the time of the creek walk, no appreciable amount of ice was obser on the creek, likely having melted or removed as a result of the cleanup. Some oil sheen was observed as south as the mouth of the Bowmanville Creek. It was noted, however, that there appears to be some fuel trapped within the sediments and soil immediately adjacent to the Creek itself, and possibly some fuel oil the aquatic vegetation. Cleanup of this material is likely to be addressed in the next several weeks, once i has been determined what the most effective means of cleanup is. Authority staff have met with inspectors from Environment Canada regarding possible legal action under Fisheries Act. Authority staff who attended the site have been asked to secure all fish samples and prepar documentaion and photographs taken at the site. Should legal action result from this spill, all fish sample: photographs and documentation will be provided to Environment Canada. At present all fish samples are under lock and key, and staff are preparing the documentation requested. As of March 22, staff have bee informed that Environment Canada will likely have a de -briefing session in the next several weeks at whic all involved agencies will meet. Authority staff will continue to keep the Authority Board apprised of the situation. RECOMMENDATION. THAT Staff Report X4.324-99 be received for information and filed.

Bowmanville, ON., LIC 1P5 Phone (905) 697-2132 April 1, 1999 To Mr. J. Caruana, Re: Municipal Grant Application for the Clarington Speedskating Club. i 1, t,111NICIPAUT'rOFCLAPi"OTT) Oh'rtllisilYSeBb9CEsC%';�R MEN1 I L.=------- ._ .._ In reference to our conversation today regarding our application which was somehow overlooked despite being dropped off at the desk prior to the deadline. I would respectfully request consideration of our application, as a first year club we desperately need it. The municipality has been very supportive and as a result we have enjoyed a very successful first year with 42 members. I In order to expand our club we need help with the first year expenses, with the response we have had and a waiting list for next year we feel we should be able to raise our own funds. This year however we must purchase more safety pads for the ice which are very costly. On behalf of the Clarington Speedskating Club I thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, A�" Kathlynn Hoch Club President.
