There are still some 60,000 homes approximately, without heat j any of these people are in shelters, and hydro, particularly rural areas. M with families, unable to return home due to downed power lines and clean-up operations. I have been informed that transport drivers heading into the Ottawa Valley and the Saint Lawrence Valley areas, who have empty loads, are picking up assistance materials at The Fifth Wheel Truck Stop here in Bowmanville. It is my understanding that power may not be restored to some rural areas for at least a week, and in some cases, perhaps two. It is also my understanding that batteries (6 volt lantern and D size), candles, canned goods, blankets are appreciated items for these poeple who cannot return home. There is an urgent need for baby formula, baby food, diapers, candles, batteries and non- perishable food. The recent plunge in temperatures has added to the discomfort of these people. I would like to thank Lua and Michelle Farnoush for coming to me to ask if we could do something of this nature, to help out. In that regard, we will accept non-perishable foods,ill and items you may items from provide to, 16, sent via The Fifth Wheel to Eastern Ontarto. We w p 1998 until January 23, 1998, inclusive, at the school, to be shipped to arrive in Eastern Ontario. Thank you.

But despite massive efforts thus far, there is a still a continuing demand for resources to support those communities in Eastern Ontario affected by the Ice storm emergency. THE FACTS: In response to the need, the provincial government is co-ordinating a municipality twinning program to match affected municipalities with municipalities outside of the affected area who would then be able to provide general support to them directly. The Provincial Operations Centre has been actively canvassing municipalities outside the affected area over the weekend, and a number of twinning arrangements have already been made, However, even though many communities have already been twinned,the demand for support is so great that a second round of twinning is being organized today. Based on need, the most severely affected municipalities may have two or more support municipalities linked to them. Under the twinning program, the affected municipalities will identify their needs directly to the support municipalities. Work crews, generators, chain saws, chipper trucks and other public works resources are badly needed by municipalities affected, as well as replacement batteries, bottled water and other essential commodities. ACTION REQUIRED: If your municipality is interested in providing direct support to a twinned municipality, please contact the Resource Co-ordinator, Provincial Operations Centre, 416-314-0130, or 416-314-5839.

This transitional, one-time funding totaling $11.26 million will be provided until March 31, 1999. BACKGROUND: As part of its Who Does What reforms, the Province announced that municipalities would fund 100 per cent of all community-based public health programs, and that the Province would fund some provincial programs such as immunization. AMO has advocated that the Province should fund public health programs which are province-wide in scope, including research and development. STATUS: The Province will continue to provide funding until March 31, 1999,and not pass these costs on to municipalities. The following public health funding will be provided by the Province: • $6.6 million for public health research, education and development; $2.2 million for speech and audiology; • $1.8 million for programs in community-based speech agencies; • $560,000 for genetics counselling; $100,000 for a sexual health hotline and resource centre. AMO is advised that the above funding amounts are consistent with amounts currently being spent in these program areas. It Is expected that the Ministry of Health will contact health units which provide these programs and municipalities affected by this change in funding to provide information on the financial impacts, AMO will be seeking clarification regarding the Government's intentions for funding these programs beyond March 31, 1999, AMO continues to press the Ministry of Health to ensure that program standards for community public health programs are broad and not prescriptive, in order to allow municipalities to deliver programs efficiently and in keeping with local circumstances. AMO also continues to advocate for municipal decision- making regarding public health governance structures, Any new developments in these areas will be reported to members as they arise, This information is also available through HMO's Municom network at www.municom.com For further information contact: Jill Vienneau, Policy Advisor, 416-971-9856 ext. 314 or via e-mail: lvienneau @ amo.municom.com Transmission problems, Maria Pontes,Administrative Assistant,416-971-9856 ext. 326 t/t COUNCIL INFORMATION I-5 MINUTES MUNICIPALITY OF CLARINGTON LOCAL ARCHITECTURAL CONSERVATION ADVISORY COMMI�1�fE5 j JANUARY 6, 1998 07 198 Members Present: Janie Dodds Paul Halminen Eleanor Magder Tom Barrie Linda Kiff Jim Vinson Mavis Carlton Lynn Lovekin Victor Suppan Bill Paterson Simone Georges Members Absent: Peter Thorne Regrets: Nancy Miller Planning Staff: Isabel Little Adoption of Minutes 98-01 Moved by Tom Barrie, seconded by Bill Paterson, that the minutes of November 18, 1997, be accepted as written.

PASQUET RE: Advertising In looking over the financial information provided for this meeting- it appears that if we want to increase our income we need to increase the usuage of not only the auditorium but also the meeting rooms that are available to host small functions/meetings. One way of increasing the rental income would be through advertising the availability of the Hall, I checked with the Statesman to get the rates for advertising. They are: Word Ad- must be 20 words or less Only in Statesman $7.28/week $378.56/year Both Papers $10.91/week $567.32/year Display Ad - smallest 1 inch I Statesman Only $9.89/wk $514.28/year Both $14.83/wk $771.16/year The display ad is Bold Print - centered and bordered. For a one-time charge of$10.00 you can add a graphic. There are no discounts for advertising year long. My recommendation is that we do a display ad in the Statesman only for 6 months and evaluate whether or not it has been successful. This evaluation could be accomplished simple by asking people who call to inquire or book where they found out about the Hall. Kathleen Pasquet i i I .

The strategy,which elaborated on the principle of exemption established in the planning Act, is part of a larger shift toward enhanced local autonomy and a more streamlined,policy-led planning system introduced by Land Use Planning& Protection Act, (Bill 20). In general, the comments which were received during this consultation supported the changes proposed in the draft strategy. The Delegation/Exemption Implementation Strategy has since been revised, based on the results of this consultation. A copy of the final version of the strategy is enclosed for your information. As well, ministry staff will be contacting you shortly to discuss what this means for your planning responsibilities. Should you have any questions about the strategy, please contact Mr. Paul Featherstone, Senior Planner, at(416) 585-6044 or Ms. Viviana Zothner-Cotic, Senior Planner, at (416) 585-6323, in the Provincial Planning Services Branch. For your convenience, the final version of the Implementation Strategy will also be available through the ministry Website (http://www.mmah.gov.on.ca), under Land Use Planning. Sincerely,-. 4ch Minister - Enclosure c: Mr. Michael Power, President, Association of Municipalities of Onfario - - Clerks - 4 Q Ontario i Delegati" on/Exemption under the Planning Act Implementation Strategy I W A L R E P ® R T December 1997 i I Context I In fall and winter 1995/96,the Ontario government consulted on Bill 20,the Land Use Planning and Protection Act,which came into force on May 22, 1996. The new Act was the result of the government's commitment to a sound,efficient and effective planning system, one which would enhance local autonomy,eliminate overlap and duplication,and bring about streamlined decision-making. During the consultation,the Association of Municipalities of Ontario(AMO) recommended legislation that would implement a community-based planning model, allowing for greater local autonomy in decision-making. In response,in Bill 20,the government provided for exemption from approval for an official plan and official plan amendments. To facilitate the process of moving toward exemption,in November 1996 the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing(MMAH)released for discussion and comment an Exemption Implementation Strategy. The proposed strategy included a two-year time period during which there would be progressive delegation of planning authority to municipalities and planning boards, followed by the subsequent exemption of official plans and amendments from approval. The strategy was distributed for comment to municipalities and planning boards as well as to various professional,private and public organizations with an interest in the planning system. During the consultation, 70 responses were received from municipalities,planning boards and organizations. Generally,the comments were supportive of the principle of exemption and some suggestions were made for improvement. Many of the suggestions have been incorporated into this final strategy, resulting in a better balance between the need for local autonomy and the protection of provincial interests. i i I i I Exemption/Delegation Implementation Strategy 1 i The Implementation Strategy Introduction The implementation of exemption from approval of official plans and amendments and delegation of approval authority by the minister will proceed in phases. Each phase will build on the authority and responsibility transferred in the previous phase. An example of this would be the delegation of consents in one phase, followed by the delegation of subdivision approval authority in a subsequent phase, and finally,exemption. The implementation of the strategy will be consistent with the existing municipal plan review timetable and current restructuring discussions. The Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing will have a reduced role in planning approvals,but will maintain a presence in the planning system through the provincial one-window plan input,review and appeal services. Components of the Strategy The phases outlined in this report are based on the progressive delegation of the minister's approval authority. The exemption from ministerial approval will spell out and include conditions that relate to the performance measures that will help both the province and municipalities in assessing the overall effectiveness of their planning programs.In addition, it should be noted that Sections 2 and 3 of the Planning Act require that a council of a municipality, in exercising any authority that affects a planning matter, shall have regard to provincial interests and the Provincial Policy Statement(PPS),respectively. Since municipalities will be engaged in identifying and endeavouring to protect provincial interests (also known as Municipal Plan Review),exemption orders may also contain conditions pertaining to the carrying out of Municipal Plan Review as an integral part of the municipal planning process: These conditions are outlined in the sections titled Reporting and Conditions. Exemption Exemption from approval at this point applies to official plan amendments off: official plans will remain subject to the approval of the minister or the upper tier municipality (region/county). Similarly, the authorization of upper tier approval authorities to exempt lower tier municipalities (e.g., towns and townships) under ss.17(10) will include the power to exempt from approval lower tier official plan amendments only and not official plans. This authorization will come into effect 12 months after'the upper tier receives exemption from ministerial approval. This approach reflects the need to protect the broader provincial and regional interests and to protect as well such things as infrastructure and sensitive environmental resources that have impacts across municipal boundaries. Exemption/IY_Iegation Implementation Strategy 2 The province and the upper tier municipalities will continue to provide a coordinating function through the approval of official plans, the introduction of provincial one-window planning, and Municipal Plan Review(MPR). The effective implementation of one-window/MPR will rely on input and consultation at the beginning of the local planning process. This would include commenting on draft amendments, attending public meetings, and working out solutions to planning issues in cooperation with affected stakeholders. The deferral for 12 months of authorization of upper tier municipalities to exempt their lower tier municipalities will allow for further development of the municipal plan review and restructuring exercises currently underway. The timing of exemption and related conditions for lower tier exemption will continue to be an upper tier responsibility. Delegation The delegation of the minister's approval authority(consents,subdivisions/condominiums and lower tier official plan amendments)will be based on a balance between local planning capability and the continued promotion of local autonomy. The delegated approval function will be tied to the most relevant level and to existing planning capability. Where local planning capacity does not exist,some limited approval authority will be delegated, with the expectation that planning programs will be developed so that the service can be provided in a responsible manner. Counties without established planning programs,for example, would receive delegation of subdivision approval authority with the expectation that a planning program will be established. Subdivision delegation and education and training efforts to build capacity should result in an established planning program. Additional delegation of authority to these counties would be contingent on the further development of the county iplanning program. With regard to Northern Ontario,it is recognized that the government is currently dealing with the issue of appropriate governance that takes into account,among other issues,the Who Does What panel (WDW)recommendations. Consequently,the delegation of consent approval authority, and in some cases, subdivision/condominium approval authority,to planning boards and some northern municipalities is likely to be appropriate. It is also fitting to exempt from approval official plan amendments proposed by planning boards or municipalities within planning areas. Restructuring Given the significant number of restructuring activities currently underway and the possible impacts of service delivery options in Northern Ontario,each municipality and planning board will be assessed prior to implementation of the exemption/delegation strategy with regard to active restructuring exercises and any legislation affecting municipal boundaries. &emption/L�legation Implementation Strategy 3 i i Phased transfer of approval authority will take into account municipal restructuring. However, if it is determined that implementation will interfere with restructuring or is premature, depending on where planning functions will be located,the phasing will be adjusted to accommodate the situation of individual municipalities(e.g., Counties of Frontenac and Lennox and Addington). i Status of Official Plans i The Planning Act provides for the assignment of approval authority to upper tier municipalities immediately upon the approval of new parent official plans. Because a number of upper tier municipalities are preparing new official plans,the implementation phasing will be adjusted according to the projected timing for the approval of these documents. Assessment of the Planning System It is the responsibility of the province to assess the broad, overall performance of the streamlined, policy-led planning system under Bill 20. Conditions included in the exemption orders will help to provide performance measures that will assist the province,municipalities and other stakeholders to evaluate the operation of the planning system. This evaluation will also provide insight into the need for further system changes. i The province will report annually on the effectiveness and efficiency of these improvements to the planning system. The second annual assessment will be used to determine whether further changes need to be made to the system, including exemption provisions and/or delegated powers. f Planning Support Services j In the interests of enhancing local autonomy,the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing will provide increased planning system support services to assist municipalities in delivering local planning services. This will include operational and administrative education and training and the development and provision of technological support tools(e.g.,computer tracking systems, assistance in interpreting policy,on-line access to ministry information and services, etc.). Phasing The implementation of the exemption/delegation strategy will take place in an incremental series of three six-month phases,with each phase building on existing planning responsibilities. . The implementation of exemption in the new City of Toronto will be determined as a result of consultation once the new city is in place. It is important to note that there are a few municipalities not included in the phasing section. Other municipalities undergoing formal restructuring exercises will be included in the phasing section immediately following the completion of the restructuring process. • i Exemption/Delegation Implementation Strategy 4 I Under the provisions of the Planning Act,when an upper tier municipal official plan or part of it comes into effect,the upper tier municipality is assigned approval authority for lower tier official plans and amendments as well as for plans of subdivision\condominium(where it has not yet been delegated). For upper tier municipalities presently preparing official plans,the transfer of approval powers will occur automatically through the provisions of the Planning Act rather than through separate delegation orders under this strategy. The exemption of these upper tier municipalities will occur in the phase immediately following the approval of the official plan. The following counties are required by regulation to adopt new official plans by December 31, 1997: County of Bruce County of Grey County of Hastings County of Huron County of Lambton County of Middlesex County of Peterborough County of Perth County of Simcoe County of Wellington United Counties of Prescott& Russell Phase 1: Up to December 1997 ► Exempt from ministerial approval all upper tier official plan amendments for the Regional Municipalities of York,Durham,Halton,Hamilton-Wentworth, Waterloo, Ottawa-Carleton,Peel,Niagara,Haldimand-Norfolk, Sudbury, District of Muskoka and County of Oxford. ► Exempt from ministerial approval all official plan amendments for separated cities,cities in the north and the Town of Orangeville. ► Delegate the minister's authority to approve subdivisions to the County of Renfrew. Phase 2: January to June 1998 Exempt from ministerial approval the official plan amendments for the new City of Toronto. ► Exempt from ministerial approval official plan amendments for the County of Prince Edward(restructured). ► Delegate the minister's authority to approve lower tier official plans and amendments to the County of Victoria. ► Delegate subdivision/condominium approval authority to the Counties of Brant, Dufferin, Elgin, Essex, Haliburton, Lanark, Leeds&Grenville, Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry as. it applies to constituent lower tier municipalities without planning departments.* This Exemption/Delegation Implementation Strategy 5 t delegation is to be based on the condition that these counties do not have the power to sub-delegate the authority to the lower tier municipality without the minister's approval. and/or j ► Consider delegating subdivision/condominium approval authority to lower tier municipalities with planning departments, within counties that do not currently have a county plan and/or planning department(Brant, Dufferin, Elgin, Essex, Haliburton, Lanark, Leeds& Grenville,Northumberland and Stormont,Dundas and Glengarry). Delegation*will depend on factors such as the status of local restructuring, alternative planning service delivery,planning programs in place and other issues affecting the delivery of planning services. ► Delegate subdivision/condominium approval authority to any municipal planning authority. ► Delegate subdivision/condominium approval authority to separated towns(St. Marys, Gananoque,Prescott and Smiths Falls). ► Delegate the minister's authority to approve consents to planning boards that do not have this responsibility. ► Delegate the minister's authority to approve subdivision/condominium to planning boards. Phase 3: July to December 1998 ► Exempt from ministerial approval official plan amendments of the prescribed counties whose official plan has come into effect in Phase 2. ► Exempt from ministerial approval official plan amendments for the County of Victoria. ► Exempt from ministerial approval official plan amendments for separated towns(St Marys, Gananoque,Prescott and Smiths Falls). Exempt from ministerial approval official plan amendments for planning boards and/or municipalities within planning areas. ► Delegate the Minister's authority to approve consents to the remainder of northern municipalities that presently do not have the authority. ► Delegate subdivision/condominium approval authority and/or exempt from ministerial approval official plan amendments in restructured municipalities as appropriate. (*means amendments to Planning Act required) Exemption/Delegation Implementation Strategy 6 After Phase 3: Assuming the complete implementation of these three phases as noted above,the MMAH would remain the approval authority for the following: official plans for upper tier and single tier municipalities, separated cities and the Town of Orangeville,planning boards and municipal planning authorities; official plans and amendments for lower tier municipalities within counties where the county does not have an official plan and there is no municipal planning authority(Brant, Dufferin, Elgin,Essex, Haliburton,Lanark,Leeds&Grenville,Northumberland, Lennox &Addington,Renfrew,Frontenac and Stormont, Dundas& Glengarry);and official plans,amendments and plans of subdivision/condominium for northern municipalities within districts outside of planning boards; and consents and plans of subdivision/condominium for unorganized territory not included in a planning area. MMAH would also continue its input,review and appeal function as the defined approval authority whether or not exemption has been granted. Under the provisions of ss. 17(15)and 22(1) (a) of the Planning Act, notice of official plans and/or amendment must be provided to MMAH as prescribed by regulation. It should be noted that as restructuring initiatives and/or the creation of new municipal planning authorities or planning boards occur, appropriate adjustments to retained approval authority will occur. i Performance Measures With the emphasis on a policy-led planning system,the ability to assess the performance of the new system takes on increased importance. Measuring performance will help municipalities assess the effectiveness of various components of their planning programs, such as their official plans,operational policies and procedures. On a broader scale, it will allow for a more comprehensive assessment of the value added by municipal planning and contribute to budget and resource forecasting. MMAH is currently developing performance measures for the land use planning system in three areas: decision accounting, trends analysis and implementation of the new planning system. I Exemption/Delegation Implementation Strategy 7 ti Within the exemption strategy,performance measures will allow the province to assess the performance of the Planning Act,the Provincial Policy Statement, and the delivery of planning services. This can include a five-year review of official plans and a review of administrative practices. In terms of trends analysis, municipalities and planning boards will be encouraged to undertake performance monitoring of the broad trends in land use planning. Third,the exemption performance measures will help MMAH to understand the progress being made in implementing the new planning system. Reporting To assist in gathering information related to the performance of the new planning system, exempted municipalities will submit a policy evaluation report to the approval authority (MMAH)each year. This information will complement the internal tracking of indicators compiled by the ministry. Similarly,reporting on performance indicators would also be carried out by lower tier municipalities for which an upper tier is the official plan approval authority. Conditions To facilitate assessment of the performance of the planning system,the exemption/authorization orders will include conditions.The conditions applied will: • require a copy of a draft official plan amendment be forwarded to the approval authority (i.e. the minister or upper tier municipality)as part of the information to be provided under ss. 17(15) and ss. 22(l). The corresponding regulation will be amended to include a draft copy of the document as part of the information package. ! i • require a copy of the clerk's declaration under ss. 17(28)which confirms the decision's effective date. • require that the minister receive a copy of the clerk's record that is forwarded to the OMB under ss. 17(29)and ss. 22(9)for official plan amendments that are appealed. • require the completion of a policy evaluation report to be submitted to the approval authority.As a complementary condition,upper tier approval authorities will include information from the lower tier municipalities. Exemption/Delegation Implementation Strategy 8 i I 2 The above-noted information will be added to the approval authority's in-house data. The management of this data, responses and critical dates will assist in the evaluation of the planning system by the ministry and/or approval authority. The data will be used to track: I • the performance and effectiveness of early consultation/input • extent of, and issues associated with, appeals • performance/implementation of the Provincial Policy Statement. Data compiled will form the basis of the MMAH Annual Report on Planning in Ontario. Conclusion The implementation of the exemption strategy will rely on effective delivery of the provincial one-window plan input,review,and appeal services,on the Municipal Plan Review(MPR) process, and on preconsultation,both provincially and municipally.It will also rely on the expectation that municipalities,planning boards and the development industry will have regard to and implement provincial interests in applications and decisions. While exemption removes a second level of approval from the planning system,thus streamlining the approval process,it is important that a broader perspective of the planning system be maintained. The effective practice of one-window,MPR and early preconsultation is key to ensuring that provincial,municipal and cross boundary planning interests are coordinated and protected. The commitment on the part of all stakeholders in the planning process to work cooperatively and provide timely information and input through the planning process is of paramount importance.

Or, store your non-restricted firearm in a securely locked container or room that cannot be easily broken into. If you use your non-restricted firearm for predator control (in areas where it is legal to discharge a firearm) you only have to store it unloaded. When storing your restricted or prohibited firearm, attach a suitable, secure locking device (i.e. trigger lock, cable lock) to it so it cannot be fired and store it in a securely locked container or room that cannot be easily broken into: Or, store it in a vault, safe, or room built or adapted to store these firearms. When storing your automatic firearm , remove the bolt or bolt-carrier (if it is removable) and store it in a separate, securely locked room that cannot be easily broken into. If your automatic firearm is stored in a vault, safe, or room built or adapted for the safe storage of these firearms, the bolt and/or bolt-carrier need not be removed. Here's the law. Safe Storage and Ammunition I As is the case for storing firearms, most requirements for the safe storage of ammunition will not change under the Firearms .sfc:t. Store all ammunition separately from your firearm. You do not have to lock up your ammunition, but make sure that it cannot be easily obtained to load the firearm. You may store ammunition with your non-restricted, restricted or prohibited firearm if you store the firearm in a securely locked container that cannot be easily broken into. You also may store ammunition with your restricted or Prohibited firearm if you .store the firearm in a vault, safe or room built or adapted for the secure storage of restricted or prohibited firearms.

I recently wrote to the Reeve of Hope Township to suggest that discussions proceed between Hope Township and the federal government on the prospect that the community might be willing to host a low-level radioactive waste management facility for wastes now located in Clarington, Hope Township, and the Town of Port Hope. In July 1997, the Council for the Township of Hope passed a resolution suggesting that discussions be initiated with the federal government on the matter. A subsequent resolution deferred those proposed discussions in light of ongoing negotiations between the Government and the Town of Deep River. i As you are probably aware, in October 1997 the Town of Deep River passed a resolution withdrawing from negotiations with the federal government on hosting a disposal facility there. Consequently, officials of Natural Resources Canada will follow up with Hope Township to determine if the township would be willing to establish a waste management facility for the area's historic wastes. Canada I - 2 - I trust that this initiative will be successful, and that we can make good progress on implementing a solution to the issue in the coming year. Yours sincerely, - 111'' Jj 000-1 Ralph Goodale c.c.: The Honourable Christine S. Stewart, P.C., M.P. Minister of the Environment Mr. W.H.

While power has been restored in most major urban centres, tens of thousands of families and businesses in eastern Ontario, western Quebec and the Maritimes, and hundreds of thousands south of Montreal, remain without power. In some cases, electricity will not be available for weeks and possibly months. Throughout the crisis, municipal governments have been the principal agents of public safety and security. Many had emergency/disaster plans in place, speeding response times. They rapidly established command posts, deployed human resources, equipment and materiel in extremely difficult circumstances. Elected leaders and municipal staff continue to work around the clock day after day. Most are exhausted. Municipal boundaries have been largely ignored. When the Regional Municipality of Ottawa- Carleton cleared up the worst of its problems, crews were deployed in neighbouring municipalities. The Montreal Urban Community is providing police and other services to surrounding jurisdictions. From across eastern North America, municipal crews and equipment have been flooding in. Offers of support from distant areas have been constant. For example, the town of Happy Valley-Goose Bay in Labrador offered its electrical workers for deployment wherever needed. Commenting on the situation, FCM President Jae Eadie, who as Deputy Mayor of Winnipeg had to cope with the Red River Floods last spring, said that"municipal governments have once again proven their mettle, providing support to their communities, keeping hope alive and ensuring the safety and security of their citizens. As we saw in Winnipeg, their commitment knows no limits. Even at the point of exhaustion, everyone is prepared to do more. "The responses of other governments have also been effective. The deployment of the Canadian military was a life saver in Manitoba. Once again, we have learned that a disciplined and trained military force is essential not only in securing international peace and stability, but also in coping with domestic disasters." /2 I I i -2- Still, things in some cases could have gone better. For those who had resources to offer, provincial emergency numbers were not responsive. There continues to be no central clearing house matching offers of support and needs. Direct municipal to municipal support proved to be the most effective mechanism. FCM will engage with its members on issues of emergency preparedness. The current crisis, because it is so extreme, offers an important learning opportunity. i Of particular interest to FCM was that all of the participants in its Community Leaders Partnership Program, which links municipal governments across Canada's vast geography, stepped in to the breach. Mayor Wayne McGrath on behalf of the City of Vernon, BC, offered to send a freight car of firewood to La Ville de Saint Lambert, QC.and the Council held a special meeting to set up a Relief Fund, urging its citizens to contribute. The City of Kamloops, BC, has contributed to the Red Cross Relief Fund in support of its partner, the City of Sherbrooke, QC. The City of Orillia, ON sent six of its power workers to its partner, La Ville de Vaud reuil-Dorion, QC. The Town of ! Markham's (ON) hydro crews are at work in La Ville de Laval, QC. FCM members are advised that there is a continuing demand for generators, firewood, graders, pumps,chain saws, pruners, lamp oil, fondue oil, paraffin, lanterns, mantles, gas line anti-freeze, 15W40 motor oil, batteries (C, D, 6 volt & 9 volt), diapers, depends, surgical gloves, extension cords, flashlights, candles, toilet paper, toothpaste and brushes, blankets, pillows, thermoses, disposable dishes and utensils, socks, non-perishable foods and personnel. Potential donors should contact municipal offices within affected areas. The Canadian Red Cross has established an emergency relief fund.

Marano, Treasurer To: January 23, 1998 From: Re: Vehicle Tariffs - Roundtable Meeting Date: Just a brief update on the major issues discussed at the meeting today, hosted by SubjQshawa &General Motors, generally the theme was "in order to sell cars in Canada one must either invest or pay tariffs", and: • The Federal Government is currently promoting a study which is looking at reducing the tariffs charged on vehicles entering the country. The tariff is at 6.7% and it is suggested it may be reduced to 6.1%. The concern is that it will give an unfair advantage to Honda and Toyota who, when given the opportunity to join the Auto Pact agreement, chose not to participate. The concern was also expressed that recently the Federal Government removed the tariff on parts entering Canada, which undermined the Auto Pact agreement, and it was accomplished by Orders in Council. This approach meant that the issue was not put before the House of Commons. It is feared that the same approach may be used to eliminate vehicle tariffs and therefore it will not have the appropriate opportunity for public input and debate. • The concern was raised by the local M.P. that there are currently vehicles entering the country tax free and therefore the issue is not as simple as was stated by the CAW and GM. • Mike Shields, President Local 222 CAW will be circulating a resolution requesting that the Local and Regional Councils encourage the M.P.s to bring forward the concerns and also to ensure that the issue is not subtly pushed through the process without proper input. Mr. Shields may also be attending local Council meetings to explain the issues and seek support. If there are any questions on the above, please call. �Thank,you ad cc: W.H.

During this meeting, we discussed the state of the auto industry in Canada, including the changes that are occurring in this most important sector. The auto industry is a significant force in the Halton economy. We are determined to ensure the long term success of the direct and indirect businesses in this sector in Halton, and beyond. I understand that your Government may be considering the reduction or outright elimination of the Most Favour de Na Ion tariff on finished vehicles unported by non-Antn pair companies from outside.North _ America. The likely result of such an action would be a flood of im orts from offshore and a significant r_____ed�ucflon m e pr uctton o Cana Ian-ma a ve c es an parts It is a scenario that would threaten the current and future world product mandates for the Big Three's facilities in Canada. The Big Three's investments in Canada have been ten times that of the transplants, their employment levels are more than 20 times. In addition, more than 93% of the sales by Canadian parts manufacturers are to Big Three assembly plants while less than 7% are to the Japanese transplants. The elimination of the MFN tariff would also undercut the strength of Canada's highly successful auto parts industry, and seriously erode our national industrial base. The potential impact on our local economy is of great concern to us. I suggest to you that the Federal Government should pursue trade policies that continue to recognize the enormous benefits of the investments and jobs made by the Big Three these past 30 years. To do anything less could cost Canada more jobs than they create. Canada's automotive trade policy must be carefully considered in a multilateral context with a view to opening up auto markets to Canadian vehicle and parts manufacturers. I appreciate your consideration of the above comments, and would welcome the opportunity to discuss them more fully with you in person. The Region of Halton has much at stake, and we are sincerely concerned for the well being of our economy should the MFN tariff be eliminated.

For your information I enclose copies of (a) My letter of February 23, 1995, to Mr. Colin Slade, Chairperson of the Port Hope Community Liaison Group, (b) Mr. Slade's reply of March 3, 1995, to this letter, and (c) a presentation made to the Port Hope Environmental Advisory Committee at a meeting held on November 4, 1991T. (A copy of item (c) was given to Mr. Paul Tweedie of the Hope Township Environmental Committee. I There are several examples of this type of approach - turning a perceived "drawback" or problem into a benefit or drawing card - and there is ample opportunity for Port Hope, Hope Township and the federal and provincial governments to do the same with our Low Level Radioactive Waste problem, perceived or real. One of the main advantages seems to be the opportunity to work together with the nuclear and environmental cleanup sector and have them contribute their expertise in producing solutions to the problem. Port Hope and vicinity seems to be ideally located for a Nuclear Museum which can show the history of the good and the bad sides of radioactivity. There could also be research associated with the museum and there are nearby facilities for conferences and symposia on related and other topcs. (Comfort Inn, Trinity College School, etc. ) I feel sure that there are many people who would welcome a positive approach to the LLRW problem and the idea that the storage of radioactive waste j can be a boon to the town - "The little town that could!" :• ;;;; `fat .

Enclosures - 3 I 1 I 333 Lakeshore Road Port Hope Ontario UA 1R2 23 February 1995 Mr Colin Slade, Chairperson Port Hope Community Liaison Group 64 John Street Port Hope ON L1A Dear Colin: I have several times put in comments and suggestions regarding the LLRW in Port Hope and have not seen or heard any opinions. I While I recognize that it is impossible for you to answer every comment or suggestion and realize that my suggestions may already have been put forward, I would like to at least know that my suggestions are "on the table" for discussion. My comments are as follows:- 1. Port Hope should be recognized as a host community, preferably, for its own waste only. 2. Port Hope should not be host to LLRW from other communities because:- i a. It is not ours b. Transporting sizeable volumes of LLRW from Port Granby and Welcome seems to me to be hazardous due to dust, possibility of spills etc. c. Port Hope's population density is much greater than that in Hope Twp. and however "safe" it is it seems incongruous to bring a noxious material into a populated area. 3. Locating the disposal of the LLRW at the west beach in a cavern seems to be in direct contradiction to the protection of waterfronts along the lakeshore (Waterfront Regeneration Trust) . We have already lost -the use of the waterfront area that was a ballpark to the Cameco parking lot. a. Because of the above this is NOT the place for disposal. b. Why choose a method that is more than three times as expensive ($150 million vs. $40 million)? and what about the ongoing monitoring costs? 4. Using the above ground storage system would be best because:- a. The area proposed is not used for anything at present. b. It would be more easily monitored. j c. It could be SEEN to be monitored because d. It could be linked with a Radium/Uranium Museum showing the history of radioactivity, Curie, Pochon, Great Bear Lake, Port Radium, Eldorado, Geiger counters, models of the storage facility showing the actual monitoring taking place (duplicate instrumentation) , etc. Information on nuclear fuel, fuel bundles, etc. , Zircatec, etc., .. . e. It would show that Port Hope had the guts to face the problem, solve it and make it into a drawing card (tourism) instead of a millstone. f. It would also act as an educational facility and help to solve many of the myths about radioactivity. i i It should be apparent by now that Murphy's Law is no respecter of ingenuity. In fact the more complex and larger the undertaking the more likely that problems will unwittingly arise. Megaprojects are no longer the answer. Following the edict - K.I.S.S. (Keep It Simple Stupid) would not be a bad idea. Too often the ingenious ideas are short-sighted. Too seldom are the questions "arid then what?" or "what if?" asked. In comparing the above ground storage and the cavern storage which would be the easiest, and least expensive, to "fix" if "something went wrong"? 411 1 Even though I have said above (itemsV that I do not feel that LLRW from outside the town should be stored in Port Hope, if it was "proved" to be "safe" I would be willing for Port Hope to accept it. I would be interested in your comments and those of the Siting Task Force. Yours very truly, ` Jack W.L.

Can it happen here?) Alternative energy sources. By "taking the bull by the horns" or "biting the bullet" Port Hope will have turned a disaster into a golden egg. All the contributors (see above) will have a chance to show their best efforts at controlling a serious problem. The problem will be visible, under observation at all times, be educational, be a source of income (Tourism) . It is close to Toronto, not far from the USA. It will provide hundreds of jobs during construction and moving the waste, and a number of high level .skill jobs for the long term. Problems? Getting the OK to locate the waste. Moving the waste.

Queen's Park, Toronto, Ontario M7A 1N3 Dear Minister Hodgson: i The Brooklin Master Gardeners are a volunteer group operating in the Region of Durham under the aegis of the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture,Food and Rural Affairs. We have become aware of the proposal to develop a botanical park and nature centre at the former Provincial Forestry Station at Orono. Our members have studied the Botanical Park and ! Nature Centre proposal and are in agreement -this appears to be a sound endeavour, one which will serve the Greater Toronto Area and Eastern Ontario Region, as the Royal Botanical Gardens educates and enriches the Toronto-Niagara area. We ur e you to use your office to support this proposal. I Liz Forster(secretary,Brooklin Master Gardeners) for Mr. Bob Waterman, Co-ordinator Brooklin Master Gardeners c\o O.M.A.F.R.A.

I would ask you to c:o Just that with the Lishman proposal. On the surface it may seen like a small change in the structure of the official plan, but the question that really needs to be asked is, do we really need this (,ha:ige at all? As elected government officials you tyre charged with charting the future of this area. Your decisions will shape our region not only for ourselves# but for future generational . You must choose wisely and not as so- often happens for the short term. You would indeed be wise to adopt our native peoples philosophy of Looking ahead for seven generations. The Lishmans' purport to be environmontilists and yet there are some interesting inconeistentcies. Their re:putation tende to rely heavily on the film "Fly Away Home" and though t grant you it is a touching story, it really does nothing for thin migratory bird problems of loss of habitat, overhunting, etc. Let's no-: forget that the beaver are in fact trapped and killed for their (the :Ashmans' ) fur manufacturing process . Is the killing of these wi:.d :,)eavere whose dame create pools for migratory waterfowl environmentally friendly? Does it help migratory waterfowl? Does it help tj%e :)saver? No - to all of these questions . Clarington has no shortage of sites nlr-aady suitably zoned for the Lishmans ' manufacturing process. Grant-ad it would likely be more expensive to establish the plant at th-ine sites* The Lishmans' could, however, lead the way into th4� naw millenium by demonstrating how to develop pleasing industrial zunei with their earthern building technology. Thin would place the buisinise near the population centers, decreasing worker commuting and thernfo:e decreasing car exhaust. Cluster industrial development is this preferred environmental choice. It would utilize land already taken :"ro-n agriculture zones years ago. It would also allow the existing lama a: the proposed site to remain agricultural 6 serve as a corridor to wLl.dlife. The application prepared by Tunney Planling places heavy emphasis on the Lishmans ' "inclination towards environmental stewardship." Yet I feel we should be cautious. I refer yo to the letter that Mr. Lishman wrote, explaining hie reasons f-jr withdrawing from the Nestleton site. Hie disdain for the environmental safeguard studies requested is plainly .spelled out. He his also shown disdain for local resident concerns at the public meetingt on eeveral occasions and is refusing to develop any concrete site improvement plans until the proposal is approved. He has also changed his position with regard to the airstrip and hangar for hie ultra-light aircraft. Initially it was to be one aircraft 'no he could commuta. However, now it is to house 8 aircraft and hopefully in the future develop an ultra-lite aircraft facility. Also, note that the Tunney Report cle%rly states that if this is approved, it is the wedge to open the wey to a proposed residential airstrip development by Halminen. The Durham Region Official Plane took trousands of dollars and years to develop and pass. To amend it without the proper analysis as designated under Section 13.2.6 Rural Settlements would be imprudent. It reads "Regional Council shall NOT coreider the designation of new Rural Employment Areas until the Region has prepared a region-wide analysis which demonstrates the need fox and amount of rural employment development, identifies appropriate types of rural employment uses and assesses the long term cumulative impact of such development on municipal servicing costs and the natural environment.

It is unlikely that anyone plans to create the extinction of a species. It is the effect of many poor decisions that culminate it such a tragedy. I urge you not to fast-track this proposal.

What was needed, I thought, was a name :hat captured in a word or two his unique place in the se:terre of things. Something that identified him as being the very last of his kind, that succinctly conveyed the isolati m of his existence, A name that somehow re- fiectee the infinite loneliness that must accompany a state of unc ilutt:d unity. For he was perfectly and unalterably alone. Bu; in the end, I decided that Orange Band was a goo. name for hire. He was plain, and he was gritty, and it suit;d him well. Besides, the simplicity of such a name s more than fitting if you are the only remaining dusky sea,ide sparrow and there is no one left to call it j out, If I a ere the last of Homo rapzpu, .I think I Would take such ;i name.

If the counting bears any relationship to the number of your species still around; then Orange Band was lonely.It had not always been s(,.Tile duskies were cemmon once in the marshes of MoUitt Island, Florida. They were six inches long, blackis:•r a .)ve with a yellow patch near the eye,streaked in black an I white lower down, and sang a burzy song resemVing that of a red-winged, blackbird. Tha:was before we slowly pitched our faces sky- ward ar.d m urtnured,"Space."Along with the mathemat- ics of fl ght and the hardware to take us there, we had to deal wf:h it a nasty problem of mosquitoes that plagued the Ker ned y Space Center. For reasons known only to , 112 i i I y i Old Songs in a New Cafe people who conjure up such things, flooding the Merritt Island tiars'ilands nearby seemed to be the answer to the mosqui•o p-oblem. The water rose and took wirh'it the nests o:`the dusky seaside sparrows. Thee was one other place, Just one, where the duskies lived.Propelled by conservationist pressures,the federal gov n=ent lurched into action and spent some- thing over 52 million to purchase 6,250 acres along the St. Joh:t's Itiver. 'there were two thousand of the little aongbu•ds laving there. Ah, but highways came. Always the hig nwt ys come. They come to bring more people who w?It nt ed more highways that will bring more people who ar 11 nt ed more highways.The marshes were drained for road co uatruction and test swept through the dry grass of the nest ng grounds. Pesticides did the rest. By 1979, only six dusky seaside sparrm" could be found Jong the river. Five of them were raptured None were F,anal es.The last female had been sighted in 1975. The New York 2 un a duly noted the problem in the Augus:31, 1983,edition under a headline than read:"Five Sparrows, All Male, Sing for a Female to Save Species."

The Centre, run by the Northumberland/Clarington Board of Education, offers a variety of nature and outdoor education programs to approximately 4000 students annually. Each school day a class of Kindergarten to grade 12,pulls in and out of the parking lot south east of the Yohn Deere Retail Store. Visibility at this point is poor to begin with and given the restricted sight lines extending east along Taunton Road, any increase in traffic due to a fur factory would certainly constitute a significant danger. To what extent is the Regional Council committed to upgrading Taunton Road and can Regional Council assure me that the school bus entrance to the Wilmot. Creek Outdoor Education Centre will be remain a safe one? Secondly, I am worried about the impact of increased development, as earth integrated as this one purports to be, will have on the green corridor extending along the banks of the Wilmot Creek. There is no doubt that increased traffic, a parking lot and the operations associated with a Fur Factory will negatively impact on the animal populations using this corridor. An assortment o f wildlife can be found at Wilmot Creek and my students delight in seeing signs of deer, fox, mink, coyote, hawks, owls, blue herons, to name but a few. With habitat disappearing at an alarming rate (over 200 hectares are lost to development each hour in Canada: Source - Federation of Ontario Naturalist Information Pamphlet), we need to protect corridors wherever possible, especially those that are being utilized for educational purposes. Caring stewards of tomorrow's natural spaces need to have diverse natural spaces to learn from now. Please think twice about endorsing a development that will negatively impact on an area that is naturally regenerating. The proposed Official Plan amendments will set a dangerous precedent. Once an area is designated industrial it will unlikely ever revert back to its' _formal designation of environmentally sensitjve land, ra land. Is that a legacy we can afford to leave our children? ;nc rel r,u ob Ro enburg, _cc;All members Regional turalis I/ PlAnnin Committee �i, ? .

During Council deliberations, the Clarington Older Adult cn Association was advised that donations to be used for the centre � could be made 'to the Municipality and municipal charitable CA donation receipts issued for income tax purposes. We believe co this is outlined in Hy-law 96-95 approved May 13, 1996. Now that the former Lions Community Centre has been purchased and is being renovated for the senior centre, the Older Adult Association must proceed with fund-raising activities. The Association has applied for incorporation and as soon as this is approved, it is intended to apply for charitable status. However, in the meantime, we would appreciate receiving assurance that donations towards the Older Adult Activity Centre may be made to the municipality and appropriate income tax receipts issued to the donors.

THAT Report ADMIN. 3-98 be received; 2 . THAT Council advise the Minister of Natural Resources that Clarington would participate in Without Prejudice discussions to investigate the possibility of locating a permanent storage site for the low level waste, presently stored at Port Granby in one of the Municipalities of Hope Township, Port Hope, or Clarington; 3 . THAT Council appoint the Mayor, the Chief Administrative Officer, and appropriate staff, to represent Clarington in the above mentioned Without Prejudice discussions and report back to Council; and 4 . THAT interested residents of Clarington, who have participated in this matter in past years, be advised of Council' s decision. 1 . 0 BACKGROUND i 1 . 1 Eldorado Resources Limited`s uranium processing facilities were established in the Town of Port Hope in the early 1930 ' s . 1 . 2 Initially, the plant processed ore to recover radium for medical purposes . However, with radium markets dwindling, the emphasis gradually shifted to uranium refining. By 1942, uranium extraction from ore had become the primary process, and in 1953 , all radium refining ceased. The radium circuit was dismantled and replaced in 1955 by a uranium refining circuit, which processed uranium concentrates rather than uranium ore . 2 1 . 3 From 1933 to 1948, wastes from Eldorado's Port Hope operations were deposited at several management sites within the Town of Port Hope. These sites were replaced in 1948 by the Welcome Waste Management facility in Hope Township, which continued until 1955 when the company opened the Port Granby Waste Management facility in the Town of Newcastle . _ 1 .4 In 1980 the Atomic Energy Control Board directed Eldorado to develop a decommissioning plan for its Port Granby site for implementation between 1986 and 1990 . 1 . 5 At present, the bulk of these low-level radioactive wastes are being safely managed by Cameco (formerly Eldorado Nuclear Limited) at the Welcome and Port Granby sites . The Welcome site was closed in 1955, and the Port Granby site was closed to any further waste in June of 1988 . 2 . 0 THE SITING TASK FORCE 2 . 1 In August of 1988, the Hon. Gerald S . Merrithew, Minister of State for Forestry and Mines, of the Government of Canada, announced the formation of a Siting Task Force to locate a long-term waste management facility for low-level radioactive wastes produced in Ontario, particularly those located in the Port Hope area, which included Port Granby. 2 . 2 The Siting Task Force was given an eighteen-month mandate to establish specific guidelines, seek out, and dialogue with, communities who would be interested in hosting such a facility. Both the communities of Elliott Lake and Deep River had already expressed an interest in hosting such a facility and were to be immediately contacted to commence negotiations in this regard. 2 . 3 The Atomic Energy Control Board has recently stated, "Although the Welcome and Port Granby sites were placed under orders in 1980 to develop decommissioning plans, these orders were put into abeyance with the formation of -the Siting Task Force. " 2 . 4 As part of the Siting Task Force process, the Town of Newcastle appointed a citizens committee, known as the Newcastle Community Liaison Group, to assist in the establishment of acceptable guidelines for the eventual removal of the low level waste from the Port Granby site. The CLG became an integral part of the Task Force' s work as they attempted to find a willing host community. i 2 . 5 Although, at the time, it was expected that the entire process could be completed in a reasonably short time frame, the Task Force continued its efforts on into September of 1995 when the Town of Deep River held a referendum to overwhelmingly support an Agreement in Principal that the Town Council had negotiated i 3 pertaining to the acceptance of the low-level waste from the areas surrounding Port Hope, including Port Granby. i 2 . 6 In 1996 the Siting Task Force was wound down by the Federal Government as negotiations continued with the Town of Deep River. However, even though the entire exercise had cost upwards of twenty-five million dollars, a final agreement for the permanent storage of waste had not been reached. I 3 . 0 HOPE TOWNSHIP RESOLUTIONS I 3 . 1 When discussions between Deep River and the Federal Government stalled, the Council of the Township of Hope passed Resolution #222/97 (Attachment #1) , that would initiate a discussion process to consider improved longer term storage for the existing low level waste from Port Hope and Port Granby within the boundaries of Hope Township. In order to clarify the issue, an additional resolution was passed stating that Council's preferred position was that the waste be removed from Hope Township. However, if negotiations between the Federal Government and Deep River were at an end, they were in favour of enacting their Resolution # 222/97 . 3 . 2 On October 16, 1997, The Corporation of Deep River passed Resolution #8, (Attachment #2) , that ended negotiations with the Federal Government on the matter of storing the low level waste in Deep River. 4 . 0 HOPE TOWNSHIP PUBLIC MEETING 4 . 1 At its meeting of January 12, 1998, Clarington Council dealt with a letter from Hope Township (Attachment #3) , inviting Clarington to participate in a public meeting that was to be held in the Hope Township Municipal Offices on January 15, i 1998, at which time representatives of the Ministry of Natural Resources Canada would report progress on their negotiations with Deep River and address the Hope Township Resolution #222/97 . 4 . 2 Council instructed the Chief Administrative Officer to attend the January 15th. meeting with any available Councillors, and report back to Clarington Council . 4 . 3 Councillors Rowe and Young attended the Hope Township meeting with the Chief Administrative Officer and the meeting was advised that Clarington was in attendance to observe, however, we would be prepared to address Clarington' s position on the subject matter, if required. I 4 .4 During the course of the meeting, the Federal representatives made it clear that, although there was to be one final meeting 4 I with the Town of Deep River in an attempt to clarify the parties, final positions, it had become apparent that negotiations have ceased and the Federal representatives would be reporting same to their Minister. 4 . 5 It was at that time that a dialogue commenced between the representatives of Hope Township and the Federal representatives that saw an offer put forth to all three communities, Hope Township, Port Hope, and Clarington, that Without Prejudice discussions should commence between the Federal representatives and the three municipalities that would investigate the feasibility of long-term storage of the low level waste in one, or all three of the municipalities . 4 . 6 The Chief Administrative Officer advised the meeting that the Clarington position had not changed over the past twenty years, in that we felt the responsibility for the Port Granby site rests with the Federal Government, and that we still were on record in having the low level waste removed to a permanent site outside of the Municipality, and the moving of the waste must be done in a safe manner. However, from a Staff position, we advised that we could recommend to Clarington Council that they join the Without Prejudice discussions with our two neighbouring municipalities and the Federal Government to investigate what terms and conditions would come forth if the waste in question remained in a safe and permanent manner in the general area of Port Granby. However, under no circumstances would Clarington offer itself as a willing host community for additional low level waste from outside its borders . The final decision to have Clarington participate in the proposed Without Prejudice discussion would naturally be that of the Municipal Council and it was further stated that prior to making such a decision, Council would no doubt wish to hear from representatives of those citizens that have been working on this problem over the past number of years. 4 . 7 Representatives of Hope Township seemed anxious to enter negotiations on the subject matter, and an elected official from Port Hope offered their participation in such discussions, as long as the low level waste presently found in Port Hope be removed from the Municipality. 5 . 0 PRESENT STATUS i 5 . 1 Following the Hope Township meeting, the Mayor and Council received a letter from the Hon. Ralph Goodale, Minister of Natural Resources Canada, (Attach. #4 ) advising Clarington of the breakdown of negotiations with the Town of Deep River. This correspondence was apparently sent prior to the Hope Township meeting of January 15, 1998, and would not interfere with the invitation for Clarington to participate in the proposed Without Prejudice discussions . 5 5 . 2 As a result of recent actions, it is now apparent that the Siting Task Force process has been unsuccessful in finding a permanent location for the low level waste presently located in Hope Township, Port Hope and Port Granby. 5 . 3 At this point, Clarington must make a decision to either participate in the proposed Without Prejudice discussions surrounding this matter, or accept the possibility that Port Granby may very well continue to be the permanent location for the low level waste presently stored on site. Considering the amount of time and money spent on this project to date, one would think that the Federal Ministry is rapidly becoming frustrated with the lack of resolve regarding the project and could very well decide to abandon any thought of moving the waste from its present location. 5 .4 As Council will be interested in hearing from representatives of the local community, we have taken the opportunity of forwarding a copy of this report to interested citizens, suggesting that they appear before Council to present their opinions on this matter. i 6 . RECOMMENDATIONS 6 . 1 Once Council has had the opportunity� PP Y to review this matter, and hear from local residents, it is recommended that Council advise the Office of the Minister of Natural Resources, Canada that the Municipality of Clarington is prepared to enter into i Without Prejudice discussions that will investigate the possibility of locating a permanent storage site for the low level waste, presently stored at Port Granby in one of the Municipalities of Hope Township, Port Hope or Clarington. 6 . 2 It is further recommended that the Mayor, the Chief Administrative Officer, and the appropriate staff, be appointed to represent the Municipality in such negotiations and report back to Council .

Copy of Resolution 11222/97 ATTACHMENT #4 TO REPORT ADMIN. 3-98 Minister Ministre of Natural Resources Canada des Ressources naturelles Canada Ottawa,Canada K1 A OE4 JAN 12 1994 _ Her Worship Mayor Diane Hamre Municipality of Clarington 40 Temperance Street Bowmanville, Ontario UC 3A6 Dear Mayor Hamre: I am writing to inform you of developments relating to the Government of Canada's efforts to find a long-term solution to the issue of historic wastes in Clarington, Hope Township, and the Town of Port Hope. I recently wrote to the Reeve of Hope Township to suggest that discussions proceed between Hope Township and the federal government on the prospect that the community might be willing to host a low-level radioactive waste management facility for wastes now located in Clarington, Hope Township, and the Town of Port Hope. In July 1997, the Council for the Township of Hope passed a resolution suggesting that discussions be initiated with the federal government on the matter. A subsequent resolution deferred those proposed discussions in light of ongoing negotiations between the Government and the Town of Deep River. As you-are probably aware, in October 1997 the Town of Deep River passed a resolution withdrawing from negotiations with the federal government on hosting a disposal facility there. Consequently, officials of Natural Resources Canada will follow up with Hope Township to determine if the township would be willing to establish a waste management facility for the area's historic.wastes. Canada - 2 - 1 trust that this initiative will be successful, and that we can make good progress on implementing a solution to the issue in the coming year.
