PETERBOROUGH, ONTARIO PROJECT NO. G022806 E1

1.0 INTRODUCTION

This report presents the results of a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) and A

preliminary geotechnical investigation that was completed by Geo-Logic Inc. (Geo-Logic) for an

existing institutional property (herein referred to as “the Site”) situated in the City of

Peterborough. The Site is comprised of a public service facility referred to as the “Five Counties

Children Centre”. The work was conducted at the request of Mr. Jim Middaugh representing

AXS Incorporated (AXS) to assess the potential environmental and geotechnical conditions at the

Site as per Geo-Logic’s December 8, 2009 proposal authorized by AXS on December 10, 2009.

The Site is located on the south side of Dutton Road approximately 200 metres (m) east of

Hilliard Street. The property has a municipal address of 872 Dutton Road. The Site is located

within an area that is municipally serviced for water and sanitary sewer.

2.0 PURPOSE AND SCOPE

The purpose of the work was to evaluate the Site from an environmental and geotechnical

perspective. The protocol used for this work has been based on three primary documents:

report with appropriate recommendations.

3.0 DOCUMENT REVIEW

3.1 SITE LOCATION

The Site includes a large institutional property located at 872 Dutton Road in the City of

Peterborough, Ontario that encompasses an area of approximately 1.2 ha (3.0 acres). The

surrounding properties along Dutton Road are generally multiple residential units including

apartments, seniors’ residences and a municipal long-term care home. The Site is located on the

south side of Dutton Road, east of Hilliard Street, in the City of Peterborough.


3

The proximity of the Site in the City of Peterborough has been compiled from National

Topographic System Mapping from Energy, Mines and Resources Canada (sheet 31 D/8, dated

1985) and is illustrated by the Vicinity Plan, Plate 1.

The Site location with respect to adjacent roadways and surrounding land uses is presented on

Ontario Base Mapping Series (10 17 7100 49100, dated 1991) and is shown on the Site Plan,

Plate 2.

3.2 SITE HISTORY

3.2.1 Zoning

According to the City of Peterborough Planning Office, the Site and the adjacent properties to

the north and east are located in an area currently zoned Public Services District 2 (PS.2). The

properties directly to the south and west are zoned Special District (Residential) Zone which is

specifically zoned for affordable housing projects. A zoning map depicting the Site and

surrounding property zoning is included in Appendix A along with a schedule of permitted uses

for the PS.2 zoning.

3.2.2 Summary of Agencies Review 3.2.2.1 Ministry of the Environment

A request under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (FOIPPA) was made

to the Ministry of the Environment (MOE) in regards to potential environmental concerns

associated with the existing Site. The MOE response letter has not been received at the time of

writing this report. Any pertinent information related to this MOE request will be forwarded

when it is received.


4

3.2.2.2 Risk Management Services Risk Management Services (RMS) was contacted regarding possible background information for

the Site using the Historical Environmental Information Reporting System (HEIRS). A Fire

Insurance Plan was found for the Site. The 1968 Fire Insurance Plan is related to the seniors’

residence to the north of Dutton Road. The Fire Insurance Plan also shows that the Site was

vacant in 1968. No other records were found in relation to the Site for Property Underwriters’

reports and Property Underwriters’ Plans. A copy of the response letter and Fire Insurance Plan

is included in Appendix A.

3.2.2.3 EcoLog Environmental Risk Information Service (ERIS)

An EcoLog Environmental Risk Information System (ERIS) Report was requested for the Site

and provides information within 0.25 km of the Site. The ERIS report provides a summary of a

number of databases including, but not limited to, the National PCB Inventory, National

Pollutant Release Inventory, Occurrence Reporting Information System, Retail Fuel Storage

Tanks, Private Fuel Storage Tanks, Waste Disposal Sites Inventory and Certificates of Approval.

No ERIS records were reported for the Site.

Within 0.25 km of the Site, nine (9) records were reported including three (3) Certificates of

Approval (C of A), one (1) ERIS Historical Search, four (4) Ontario Regulation 347 Waste

Generators Summaries and one (1) Ontario Spills record. The following provides an explanation

of the records as contained in the ERIS report and a summary of the report:

Certificates of Approval - This database contains the following types of approvals: C of A (Air)

issued under Section 9 of the Ontario EPA; C of A (Industrial Wastewater) issued under Section

53 of the Ontario Water Resources Act (“OWRA”); and C of A (Municipal/Provincial Sewage

and Waterworks) issued under Sections 52 and 53 of the OWRA. There were three specific

records listed within 0.25 km of the Site for the C of A category that are related to:

A cancelled industrial air C of A related to a backup generator at the former dialysis

centre on Anson Street;


5

A Peterborough Public Utilities Commission municipal water C of A at Anson, Hillard

and Water Streets in 1997; and

An industrial sewage C of A from the Auburn Generating Plant (AGP) on the river to the

east. This C of A was related to an application for a proposed dechlorination system.

There are no environmental concerns expected due to issues related to these C of As.

Several other C of A records were listed on the report for the general area though no specific

identification on the accompanying map was provided. The other records generally included C

of As related to industrial air, municipal water and sewage and industrial sewage. There was

also a C of A record listed for the installation of the sanitary and storm sewer extensions for

Dutton Road in 2001. Based on the information listed for the other C of A records, no

environmental impacts are expected at the Site.

ERIS Historical Searches – EcoLog ERIS has compiled a historical search database of all

environmental risk reports completed since March 1999. There are no environmental impacts

expected at the Site related to the ERIS Historical Searches.

Ontario Regulation 347 Waste Generators Summary (GEN) – Regulation 347 of the Ontario

EPA defines a waste generation Site as any Site, equipment and/or operation involved in the

production, collection, handling and/or storage of regulated wastes. A generator of regulated

waste is required to register the waste generation Site and each waste produced, collected,

handled, or stored at the Site. This database contains the registration number, company name

and address of registered generators including the types of hazardous wastes generated. This

information is a summary of all years from 1986 including the most currently available data.

Waste generator records were reported near the Site and included the Fairhaven Municipal Long-

Term Care Home, two records for the former dialysis clinic on Anson Street and the APG

facility on the Otonabee River to the east. No environmental impacts are expected at the Site

based on the waste generators summary listed within 250 m of the Site.


6

Ontario Spills - This database identifies information such as location (approximate), type and

quantity of contaminant, date of spill, environmental impact, cause, nature of impact, etc.

Information from 1988 – 2002 is included as part of the Occurrence Reporting Information

System (ORIS). The Spills Action Centre (SAC) now handles all spills reported in Ontario.

Regulations for spills in Ontario are part of the MOE’s Environmental Protection Act, Part X and

any spill after 2002 will be included in the MOE FOIPPA information. There were several issues

identified in the database including a 1989 mineral oil leak at the AGP facility on the Otonabee

River to the east and two spills north of the Site in 1995 and 2004 related to oil and fuel,

respectively. No environmental impacts are expected at the Site based on these issues listed in

the inventory.

The ERIS report is included in Appendix A.

3.2.2.4 Technical Standards and Safety Authority

The Technical Standards and Safety Authority (TSSA) were contacted regarding the Site. Mr.

Prem Lal, Coordinator Public Information Services, indicated in a letter dated December 21,

2009 that there did not appear to be any outstanding instructions, fuel spills or contamination

records with respect to the Site. The TSSA letter is included in Appendix A.

3.2.2.5 Land Registry Office

A title search was carried out at the local Land Registry Office in Peterborough to review

previous ownership of the property. The title search indicated that Five Counties Children’s

Centre has owned the property since 1974. The property was transferred from the Corporation of

the City of Peterborough who also acquired the land in 1974 from the Anson House lands. No

environmental concerns were registered on title for the property.


7

3.2.3 Adjacent Land Use

The Site location with respect to the surrounding land uses has been compiled from the City of

Peterborough Zoning Map included in Appendix A. In general, the Site is in an area of Public

Services buildings including a Municipal Long Term Care facility, a high school and seniors’

residences. Properties to the south and west contain multi-apartment units. The surrounding area

is predominantly a residential area of Peterborough with the surrounding properties zoned for

different types of residential housing. The Otonabee River is located approximately 250 metres

to the east where a power generating station and dam are located.

3.2.4 Mapping Review

Ontario Base Mapping (OBM) at a scale of 1:10,000 was obtained from the Ministry of Natural

Resources. The mapping is based on aerial photography taken in 1979. An Energy, Mines and

Resources Map (1:50,000) was also reviewed based on aerial photography taken in 1981. No

landfills or other environmental concerns were observed in close proximity of the Site based on

the available mapping.

Digital photographs obtained from the National Air Photo Library were reviewed for the years

1929, 1973 and 1994. In the 1929 photo, the area is largely undeveloped with the exception of

scattered farms, Anson House and some residential development along George and Water

Streets. In 1973, the Site is still undeveloped although the residential areas, nearby school and

seniors’ residences have developed around the Site. By 1994, the Site buildings and

development to the east of the river have appeared while the rest of the surrounding areas are

relatively unchanged. No landfills or dumps were observed in the vicinity of the Site in the years

reviewed. Copies of the air photos are included on Plates 3A, 3B and 3C.

4.0 FIELD ACTIVITIES

4.1 GENERAL

The following section provides information gathered from the ESA field activities. To evaluate

the Site for potential environmental concerns, Geo-Logic conducted an inspection of the Site, an

interview of Site personnel and a geophysical survey. Site information from the field activities is

provided on the completed Site Visit Questionnaire and Site interview summary page. Both of

these documents are provided in Appendix A. Geotechnical information obtained through

drilling conducted at the Site is discussed later in this report (soil exploration data is provided in

Appendix B).

4.2 SITE INTERVIEWS AND INSPECTION

Mr. Brian Lane of Five Counties Children’s Centre was available to provide a tour of the

property and gain access to the facility. He was also interviewed regarding the property (refer to

Appendix A for a summary of information from the interview). The Site also includes a vacant

area to the east that was not inspected. The main Site area includes the building which was built

in two stages in 1974 and 1975. The portable units on the east side were added at a later date.

Mr. Lane informed Geo-Logic that an Asbestos Survey of the building was completed in 2007.

To his knowledge, all friable asbestos materials were removed by licensed contractors from the

building. It is also understood that some non-friable asbestos materials remain in the building

and are expected to be monitored as part of an asbestos management plan. The heating system in

the building is a gas fired water system. Mr. Lane was not aware of any spills or other impacts

related to any of the equipment.

The portable units are attached to the main building to allow interior access. A double garage and

small Quonset hut are located on the east side for storage of yard equipment, wheel chairs and

other miscellaneous items. No chemicals other than those used for cleaning are stored on the

property. Garbage bins located on the property are emptied on a regular basis by a licensed

hauler.


9

Mr. Lane indicated the facility generates a small volume of biohazardous waste in the form of

needles and other general medical supplies. Disposal of this waste is coordinated with the city

hazardous waste disposal unit.

Fluorescent lighting within the building may still have ballasts containing polychlorinated

biphenyls (PCBs). Older fixtures are being updated on an “as required basis” with the ballasts

being disposed of as per applicable requirements.

Mr. Lane indicated that the building, due to its elevated position on a local drumlin, was not

affected in the flood of 2004.

Select photographs of the Site, associated buildings and surrounding area are provided in

Appendix C.

4.3 SURFACE CONDITIONS

The Site is located along the south side of Dutton Road, east of Hilliard Street in the City of

Peterborough. The Site has a municipal address of 872 Dutton Road. The Site is elevated and

located on a drumlin hill with steep slopes down to Water Street to the east and southeast. The

property is also sloped down to Anson House and Anson Street to the south. The main part of the

Site is comprised mainly of building footprint and paved parking areas with some grassed areas

(0.05 m layer of topsoil was observed in two drilling locations). The vacant lot to the northeast is

currently undeveloped and is vegetated with trees and grasses.


10

4.4 GEOPHYSICAL WALKOVER

A geophysical walkover of the Site was completed on January 21, 2010. The walkover focused

on the areas in the immediate vicinity of the existing buildings. The area at the rear of the

building had cement walkways along the building that contained rebar or steel mesh and did not

allow for an accurate geophysical survey in this area. No other large anomalies were detected at

the Site that may represent buried drums or underground storage tanks. No vent or fill pipes were

observed that might represent the presence of underground storage tanks.

4.5 EXISTING STRUCTURES

The structures located on the Site included a large one-storey brick building with three (3) metal-

sided portable units added on the east side. The building is of slab on grade construction with no

basement. Other buildings include a double garage and a small Quonset hut also on the east side

of the Site.

The proposed addition will eliminate two (2) of the portable units with the third to be moved to

the back of the building.

4.6 WATER AND WASTEWATER UTILITIES

The Site is located in an area municipally serviced for water supplies and sanitary sewer by the

City of Peterborough. No water wells or monitoring wells were observed at the Site at the time

of our inspection.


11

5.0 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS

5.1 GENERAL This section of the report provides details regarding the subsurface conditions of the Site for the

proposed development. Field activities were conducted to assess the geotechnical conditions

observed at the Site for a development that will reportedly include a 100 square metre (1100 ft2)

addition to the north area, 325 square metre (3500 ft2) addition to the east area and 75 square

metre (780 ft2) addition to the south (court yard). Each addition will be single storey slab on

grade construction with a 1.2 m (4 feet) deep perimeter frost wall. Two of the portables will be

removed while the third portable will be moved to the south area of the Site. It appears that the

parking areas will remain consistent with the current configuration.

5.2 REGIONAL GEOLOGY The Site is situated in the physiographic region known as the Peterborough Drumlin Field

(Chapman and Putnam, 1984). The Site is located within the contact area of a spillway feature

and a drumlinized area.

5.3 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS

5.3.1 General The fieldwork for this investigation was conducted on January 13, 2010 by drilling seven (7)

boreholes to depths ranging from 3.7 to 6.7 metres below existing grade (mbeg). Borehole logs are

provided for reference in Appendix B. The boreholes were drilled using a truck mounted drill rig

supplied by GET Drilling Limited. The exploration work was conducted under the direct

supervision of an experienced geotechnical technician who maintained a detailed log of the test

holes and obtained representative samples of the materials that were encountered. The subsurface

stratigraphy is briefly described in the following section.


12

5.3.2 Stratigraphy Based on the exploration work, the subsurface soil conditions are generally comprised of a surficial

layer of sandy silt fill which graded into a till. In most instances, the fill material appeared to be re-

worked till materials that were likely re-graded across the Site during initial construction activities.

A borehole (BH) 1 and 3, a layer of silt was observed below the fill. These layers are inferred to be

till material where the sand content had graded out to a trace amount. At BH-5, a 0.15 m (6 inch)

layer of concrete was observed below the fill layer, approximately 0.6 mbeg. No other concrete

was encountered.

The till was brown in colour and existed in a compact to very dense state of relative density. The

density appeared to increase with depth. Moisture contents of the till layer were generally

observed to be moist.

Moisture content tests conducted on representative soil samples yielded values ranging between

approximately 6.9 and 22.5 percent moisture by weight. Grain size distribution analyses

conducted on representative samples of these soils suggest the following compositional ranges: 0

to 26 percent gravel, 10 to 38 percent sand, and 38 to 90 percent silt and clay-sized particles.

5.3.3 Groundwater

No shallow groundwater was encountered during the drilling.

6.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

6.1 GENERAL The supporting data upon which our conclusions are based have been presented in the previous

sections of this report. Consideration has been given to the known Site history, the physical

setting, adjacent land use, current regulatory requirements and environmental Site investigation

in developing the conclusions and recommendations for this study.


13

6.2 ASBESTOS, LEAD AND POLYCHLORINATED BIPHENYLS

The presence of asbestos, mercury, lead and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are normally

associated with older building materials. An Asbestos Survey was completed by others in March

2007 indicating the presence of asbestos materials, the presence of such materials may also be

suspected with respect to hidden building materials. Reference is made to Ontario Regulation

278/05 regarding specific details of any work to be performed within the building in relation to

asbestos containing materials (ACM’s) and building owner responsibilities.

The building was constructed in 1974 and 1975 and is not suspected of containing lead based

paints. A Lead Control Program is required by the MOL to manage occupational exposures that

may be caused by lead, including for renovation and demolition activities. If any paints or other

materials are suspected of containing lead, contractors experienced in the removal and disposal

of lead containing materials should carry out the abatement work. All on-Site workers should be

safeguarded against air-borne lead dust, etc., referencing the MOL OEL for inorganic lead of 0.05

milligrams per cubic metre (mg/m3) when conducting the abatement work.

At the time of the inspection, it was indicated that fluorescent lights with ballasts containing PCB’s

may still exist in the building. It is recommended to continue the existing procedures that if

fluorescent light ballasts are removed, the ballasts be inspected in accordance with Environment

Canada “Identification of Lamp Ballasts Containing PCBs”, Report EPS 2/CC/2 (revised) August

1991 to determine weather PCB oil is present. Ballasts, which are deemed questionable, should be

considered as containing PCBs for handling and decommissioning purposes. The ballasts should

be removed from the fixtures and stored in accordance with the Canadian Council if Ministers of

the Environment “Guidelines for the Management of Wastes Containing Polychlorinated

Biphenyls (PCBs)”, dated September 1989.


14

6.3 ABOVE AND UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANKS

The heating system for the building is natural gas. No vent or fill pipes were observed that might

indicate the presence of underground storage tanks. No aboveground storage tanks were

observed during our Site inspection.

6.4 WASTES

During the field walkover, the Site was observed to contain no construction debris or waste.

Garbage bins were located at the southeast area for storage of waste material. The bins are

collected regularly by a licensed contractor. Generally the Site was well maintained.

6.5 AIR EMISSIONS No structures were observed during our Site inspection that would contain venting booths or

emission stacks.

6.6 SITE ASSESSORS Reference is made to Appendix D for the Curriculum Vitae of each member of the study team.

6.7 PRELIMINARY GEOTECHNICAL CONSIDERATIONS

Supporting data upon which our recommendations are based have been presented in the

foregoing sections of this report. The following recommendations are governed by the physical

properties of the subsurface materials that were encountered at the Site, and assumes that they

are representative of the overall Site conditions. It should be noted that these conclusions and

recommendations are intended for use by the designers only. Contractors bidding on or

undertaking any work at the Site should examine the factual results of the investigation, satisfy

themselves as to the adequacy of the information for construction, and make their own

interpretation of this factual data as it affects their proposed construction techniques, equipment

capabilities, costs, sequencing, and the like. Comments, techniques, or recommendations

pertaining to construction should not be construed as instructions to the contractor.

Based on the information gathered during this investigation, this Site’s subsurface stratigraphy

generally consists of a surficial layer fill over native soils consisting of compact to dense till.

Surficial topsoil was encountered in two boreholes. Groundwater was not observed.

Details regarding our conclusions and recommendations are outlined in the following sections.


16

6.7.1 Site Preparation, Excavation, Dewatering, and Backfill Any and all topsoil, vegetation, fill, disturbed earth, asphalt, organic and organic-bearing

material is to be stripped and removed from the building envelope area. If the paved areas are to

be expanded, this material should also be removed prior to commencing earthwork construction.

The subexcavated surface must be proof rolled and/or approved by a member of Geo-Logic prior

to placement of fill or foundations.

Excavations should be carried out to conform to the manner specified in Ontario Regulation

213/91 and the Occupational Health and Safety Act and Regulations for Construction Projects

(OHSA). All excavations above the water table not exceeding 1.2 m in depth may be

constructed with unsupported slopes. The native, non-organic soils encountered during this

investigation are classed by OHSA as Type 2 soils. As such, unsupported walls of excavations

in these soils must be sloped to within 1.2 m of the bottom of the excavation, with a slope having

a gradient of 1 horizontal to 1 vertical (1H:1V) or flatter.

Any groundwater infiltration above the water table, though not expected to be encountered, can

be controlled by pumping from collection sumps to an acceptable outlet.

If underground services are required, a normal compacted Class “B” bedding is recommended as

per Ontario Provincial Standard Specifications (OPSS). The bedding material should consist of

19 millimetre (mm) crusher run limestone or a suitable equivalent aggregate. Some excavated

native, inorganic soils may be suitable for use as service trench backfill, provided the moisture

content is adequate for compaction. A final review and approval to reuse any soil should be

made during construction. Compaction of the native soil in service trenches is recommended to

be a minimum of 98 percent of its Standard Proctor Maximum Dry Density (SPMDD).

Backfill to foundation walls both on the exterior and interior and grade raises below the floor

slab, under parking areas, and any other areas that may require engineered fill, should be

accomplished using well graded Granular “B” Type I material complying with OPSS 1010.


17

6.7.2 Foundation Design It is expected that structural loading may be supported on spread and continuous strip footings

for column and load bearing walls, respectively. The footings should be founded on undisturbed,

compact to dense native soils such as the till material encountered at the Site or on engineered

fill placed directly on the competent native soil.

It is noted that an amount of fill material was encountered in our boreholes within the building

addition and parking areas. Due to uncertainty regarding the nature of the existing fill material,

the methods used to place and compact it, and the controls on its quality and any certification,

Geo-Logic cannot approve this material to remain in place beneath the buildings. As such, this

existing fill must be fully removed prior to placing of the foundations walls.

For design purposes, it is recommended that footings constructed on the undisturbed, compact to

dense native soils or engineered fill be proportioned using the bearing pressures outlined in the

following table:

Table 1: Bearing Pressures for Footing Design

Bearing Pressure Parameter

Compact to dense, undisturbed native soil Maximum Allowable Bearing Pressure 120 kPa (2,500 psf)

Factored Bearing Capacity at ULS 265 kPa (5,500 psf) In terms of Limit Equilibrium Bearing Capacity at SLS Type II 120 kPa (2,500 psf)

Any engineered fill upon which footings are placed must be at least 300 mm in thickness. The

following is recommended for the construction of any engineered fill for the footings:

1. Remove any and all existing vegetation, topsoil, fill, organics, and organic-bearing soils to the

competent, undisturbed native soil from within the area of the proposed engineered fill.

2. The area of the engineered fill should extend horizontally 1.0 m beyond the outside edge of the building foundations and then extend downward at a 1:1 slope to the competent native soil.

3. The base of the engineered fill area must be approved by a member of Geo-Logic prior to placement of any fill, to ensure that all unsuitable materials have been removed, that the materials encountered are similar to those observed, and that the subgrade is suitable for the engineered fill.

4. Place well graded granular fill equivalent to Granular “B” Type I (conforming to OPSS 1010) up to the underside of footings in maximum 300 mm lifts, compacted to 100% of its SPMDD.

5. Full time testing and inspection of the engineered fill will be required, to ensure compliance with material and compaction specifications.

Under no circumstances should the foundations be placed directly on organic materials, loose,

frozen subgrade, construction debris, or within ponded water. All exterior footings or footings in

unheated areas should be founded at least 1.2 m below the final adjacent grade for frost

protection. Footings and walls exposed to frost action should be backfilled with non-frost

susceptible granular material.

Prior to forming, all foundation excavations must be inspected and approved by a member of

Geo-Logic This will ensure that the foundation bearing material has been prepared properly at

the foundation subgrade level and that the soils exposed are similar to those encountered during

this investigation.

For foundations constructed in accordance with the foregoing manner, total and differential

settlements are estimated to be less than 25 mm.

6.7.3 Slab-on-Grade Design The floor of the proposed building may be constructed as a normal slab-on-grade, on granular fill

over native, inorganic subsoils. This will necessitate removal of the existing fill materials. The

floor slab should be formed over a base course consisting of at least 150 mm of Granular “A”

material, compacted to a minimum of 98 % of its SPMDD. All grade increases or infilling

below the Granular “A” should utilize engineered fill (as described in the previous Section of

this report). All fill placed as engineered fill must be inspected, approved and compaction

verified by personnel from Geo-Logic.


19

As previously mentioned, it is noted that an amount of fill material was encountered in our

boreholes within the building area. Due to uncertainty regarding the nature of the existing fill

material, the methods used to place and compact it, and the controls on its quality and

certification, Geo-Logic cannot approve this material to remain in place beneath the floor slab.

As such, this existing fill should be fully removed prior to placing any fill.

6.7.4 Pavement Design If additional paved areas are required, the following conclusions and recommendations are

provided. The subgrade soil at this Site is expected to generally consist of predominantly till

(sandy silt soils). The frost susceptibility of these soils are assessed as being generally low to

moderate. In this regard, the following minimum flexible pavement structures are recommended

for the construction of the parking and access areas:

Profile Material Thickness (mm) In Conformance with OPSS Form

Asphalt Surface HL3 or 4 40 Asphalt Base HL8 50

Granular Base Granular “A” 150 Granular Subbase Granular “B” 450

1010

The following steps are recommended for preparation and optimum construction of the planned

paved areas:


20

1. Subexcavate all topsoil, earth fill, organics, organic-bearing materials and other deleterious materials from the planned pavement areas.

2. Proof roll the exposed subgrade surface with a heavy roller to reveal any possible overly soft or wet areas. Any deleterious areas thus delineated should be replaced with granular material compacted to a minimum of 98% of its SPMDD.

3. The Granular “A” and “B” courses should be compacted to a minimum 100% of their respective SPMDD’s.

4. All asphaltic concrete courses should be placed, spread and compacted conforming to OPSS Form 310 or equivalent. All asphaltic concrete should be compacted to a minimum of 97% of their respective laboratory Marshall densities.

5. The surface of the pavement subgrade should be contoured to prevent ponding of water during construction and to promote rapid drainage of the completed granular base and subbase course materials.

6. Adequate drainage should be provided to ensure satisfactory pavement performance.

It is recommended that all fill material be placed in uniform lifts not exceeding 200 mm in

thickness before compaction. It is suggested that all granular material used as fill should have an

in-situ moisture content within 2 % of their optimum moisture content. All granular materials

should be compacted to 100 % of their SPMDD’s. Granular materials should consist of Granular

“A” and “B” conforming to the requirements of OPSS Form 1010 or equivalent. It should be noted that the above recommended pavement structures are for the end use of the

project. During construction of the project the recommended granular depths may not be

sufficient to support loadings encountered.

6.7.5 Design Review and Inspection Due to the preliminary nature of the design details at the time of this report, it is recommended

that Geo-Logic be allowed to review the building design prior to its finalization. In addition, we

recommend that our firm be retained to review the foundation design and grading proposals

when they are available.

Geotechnical inspection and review of foundation excavations and compaction procedures must be

carried out to ensure compliance with our recommendations.

6.8 SUMMARY CONCLUSIONS

This report has been completed in accordance with required procedures for environmental

assessments as outlined in the three documents described in Section 2.0. The environmental Site

investigation represents a "snapshot" in time. Geo-Logic cannot guarantee the reliability of

information provided by others. However, whenever possible, verification of authenticity was

attempted.

Based on our observations, the information collected, and the present land use, it is our

professional opinion that the Site identified as 872 Dutton Road in the City of Peterborough has a

low level of concern from an environmental perspective and is suitable for its currently zoned

usage based on this Phase I ESA report. It is concluded that a Phase II ESA is not required for this

Site.

This outlines the number of records from each database that fall on the site, and within various distances fromthe site.

The records that were found within a specified distance from the project property (the primary search radius) havebeen plotted on a diagram to provide you with a visual representation of the information available. Sites will beplotted on the diagram if there is sufficient information from the database source to determine accurate geographiccoordinates. Each plotted site is marked with an acronym identifying the database in which the record was found(i.e., WDS for Waste Disposal Sites). These are referred to as "Map Keys". A variety of problems are inherent whenattempting to associate various government or private source records with locations. EcoLog ERIS has attempted tomake the best fit possible between the available data and their positions on the site diagram.

This table describes the records that relate directly to the property that is being researched.

This section represents information, by database, for the records found within the primary search radius. Listed atthe end of each database are the sites that could not be plotted on the locator diagram because of insufficientaddress information. These records will not have map keys. They have been included because they may be found tobe relevant during a more detailed investigation.

EcoLog Environmental Risk Information Services Ltd can search the following databases. The extent of historical information varies with each database and current information is determined by what is publicly available to EcoLog ERIS at the time of update. Note: Databases denoted with “*” indicates that the database will no longer be updated. See the individual database descriptions for more information. Provincial Government Source Databases: Abandoned Aggregate Inventory Up to Sept 2002 AAGR The MAAP Program maintains a database of all abandoned pits and quarries. Please note that the database is only referenced by lot and concession and city/town location. The database provides information regarding the location, type, size, land use, status and general comments. Aggregate Inventory Up to Mar 2008 AGR The Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources maintains a database of all active pits and quarries. Please note that the database is only referenced by lot\concession and city/town location. The databases provides information regarding the registered owner/operator, location, status, licence type, and maximum tonnage. Abandoned Mines Information System 1800-2005 AMIS The Abandoned Mines Information System contains data on known abandoned and inactive mines located on both Crown and privately held lands. The information was provided by the Ministry of Northern Development and Mines (MNDM), with the following disclaimer: “the database provided has been compiled from various sources, and the Ministry of Northern Development and Mines makes no representation and takes no responsibility that such information is accurate, current or complete”. Reported information includes official mine name, status, background information, mine start/end date, primary commodity, mine features, hazards and remediation. Ontario Borehole 1875-Jul 2009 BORE A borehole is the generalized term for any narrow shaft drilled in the ground, either vertically or horizontally. The information here includes geotechnical investigations or environmental site assessments, mineral exploration, or as a pilot hole for installing piers or underground utilities. Information is from many sources such as the Ministry of Transportation (MTO) boreholes from engineering reports and projects from the 1950 to 1990’s in Southern Ontario. Boreholes from the Ontario Geological Survey (OGS) including The Urban Geology Analysis Information System (UGAIS) and the York Peel Durham Toronto (YPDT) database of the Conservation Authority Moraine Coalition. This database will include fields such as location, stratigraphy, depth, elevation, year drilled, etc. For all water well data or oil and gas well data for Ontario please refer to WWIS and OGW. Certificates of Approval 1985-Sept 2002* (for current CofA info please check the EBR Database) CA This database contains the following types of approvals: Certificates of Approval (Air) issued under Section 9 of the Ontario EPA; Certificates of Approval (Industrial Wastewater) issued under Section 53 of the Ontario Water Resources Act (“OWRA”); and Certificates of Approval (Municipal/Provincial Sewage and Waterworks) issued under Sections 52 and 53 of the OWRA. For more current Certificate of Approval information please see the EBR database, which will include information such as 'Approval for discharge into the natural environment other than water (i.e. Air) (EPA s.9)', and Approval for sewage works (OWRA s.53(1)). TSSA Commercial Fuel Oil Tanks 1948-2009 CFOT Since May 2002, Ontario developed a new act where it became mandatory for fuel oil tanks to be registered with Technical Standards & Safety Authority (TSSA).

Coal Gasification Plants 1987, 1988* COAL This inventory of all known and historical coal gasification plants was collected by the Ministry of Environment. It identifies industrial sites that produced and continue to produce or use coal tar and other related tars. Detailed information is available and includes: facility type, size, landuse, soil condition, site operators/occupants, site description, and potential environmental impacts. This information is effective to 1988, but the program has since been discontinued.

Compliance and Convictions 1989-Oct 2009 CONV This database summarizes the fines and convictions handed down by the Ontario courts beginning in 1989. Companies and individuals named here have been found guilty of environmental offenses in Ontario courts of law. Drill Holes 1886-2005 DRL The Ontario Drill Hole Database contains information on more than 113,000 percussion, overburden, sonic and diamond drill holes from assessment files on record with the department of Mines and Minerals. Please note that limited data is available for southern Ontario, as it was the last area to be completed. The database was created when surveys submitted to the Ministry were converted in the Assessment File Research Image Database (AFRI) project. However, the degree of accuracy (coordinates) as to the exact location of drill holes is dependent upon the source document submitted to the MNDM. Levels of accuracy used to locate holes are: centering on the mining claim; a sketch of the mining claim; a 1:50,000 map; a detailed company map; or from submitted a “Report of Work”. Environmental Registry 1994-Oct 2009 EBR The Environmental Registry lists proposals, decisions and exceptions regarding policies, Acts, instruments, or regulations that could significantly affect the environment. Through the Registry, thirteen provincial ministries notify the public of upcoming proposals and invite their comments. For example, if a local business is requesting a permit, licence, or certificate of approval to release substances into the air or water; these are notified on the registry. Data includes things like; Approval for discharge into the natural environment other than water (i.e. Air), Permit to Take Water (PTTW), Certificate of Property Use (CPU), Approval for a waste disposal site, Order for preventative measures.(EPA s. 18), Order for conformity with Act for waste disposal sites.(EPA s. 44), Order for remedial work.(EPA s. 17) and many more. TSSA Fuel Storage Tanks Current to Dec 2008 FST The Technical Standards & Safety Authority (TSSA), under the Technical Standards & Safety Act of 2000 maintains a database of registered private and retail fuel storage tanks in Ontario with fields such as location, tank status, license date, tank type, tank capacity, fuel type, installation year and facility type. Ontario Regulation 347 Waste Generators Summary 1986-Jun 2009 GEN Regulation 347 of the Ontario EPA defines a waste generation site as any site, equipment and/or operation involved in the production, collection, handling and/or storage of regulated wastes. A generator of regulated waste is required to register the waste generation site and each waste produced, collected, handled, or stored at the site. This database contains the registration number, company name and address of registered generators including the types of hazardous wastes generated. It includes data on waste generating facilities such as: drycleaners, waste treatment and disposal facilities, machine shops, electric power distribution etc. This information is a summary of all years from 1986 including the most currently available data. Some records may contain, within the company name, the phrase “See & Use…” followed by a series of letters and numbers. This occurs when one company is amalgamated with or taken over by another registered company. The number listed as “See & Use”, refers to the new ownership and the other identification number refers to the original ownership. This phrase serves as a link between the 2 companies until operations have been fully transferred. Mineral Occurrences 1846-Sept 2008 MNR In the early 70’s, the Ministry of Northern Development and Mines created an inventory of approximately 19,000 mineral occurrences in Ontario, in regard to metallic and industrial minerals, as well as some information on building stones and aggregate deposits. Please note that the “Horizontal Positional Accuracy” is approximately +/- 200 m. Many reference elements for each record were derived from field sketches using pace or chain/tape measurements against claim posts or topographic features in the area. The primary limiting factor for the level of positional accuracy is the scale of the source material. The testing of horizontal accuracy of the source materials was accomplished by comparing the planimetric (X and Y) coordinates of that point with the coordinates of the same point as defined from a source of higher accuracy.

This database includes an inventory of locations that have gasoline, oil, waste oil, natural gas and/or propane storage tanks on their property. The MCCR no longer collects this information. This information is now collected by the Technical Standards and Safety Authority (TSSA). Ontario Regulation 347 Waste Receivers Summary 1986-2005 REC Part V of the Ontario Environmental Protection Act (“EPA”) regulates the disposal of regulated waste through an operating waste management system or a waste disposal site operated or used pursuant to the terms and conditions of a Certificate of Approval or a Provisional Certificate of Approval. Regulation 347 of the Ontario EPA defines a waste receiving site as any site or facility to which waste is transferred by a waste carrier. A receiver of regulated waste is required to register the waste receiving facility. This database represents registered receivers of regulated wastes, identified by registration number, company name and address, and includes receivers of waste such as: landfills, incinerators, transfer stations, PCB storage sites, sludge farms and water pollution control plants. This information is a summary of all years from 1986 including the most currently available data. Record of Site Condition 1997-Sept 2001, Oct 2004-Oct 2009 RSC

The Record of Site Condition (RSC) is part of the Ministry of the Environment’s Brownfields Environmental Site Registry. Protection from environmental cleanup orders for property owners is contingent upon documentation known as a record of site condition (RSC) being filed in the Environmental Site Registry. In order to file an RSC, the property must have been properly assessed and shown to meet the soil, sediment and groundwater standards appropriate for the use, such as residential, proposed to take place on the property. The Record of Site Condition Regulation (O. Reg. 153/04) details requirements related to site assessment and clean up.

Information is provided on the company name, location, charge date, offence and penalty. Contaminated Sites on Federal Land June 2000-Sept 2009 FCS The Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat maintains an inventory of all known contaminated sites held by various Federal departments and agencies. This inventory does not include properties owned by Crown corporations, but does contain non-federal sites for which the Government of Canada has accepted some or all financial responsibility. All sites have been classified through a system developed by the Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment. The database provides information on company name, location, site ID #, property use, classification, current status, contaminant type and plan of action for site remediation. Fisheries & Oceans Fuel Tanks 1964-Sept 2003 FOFT Fisheries & Oceans Canada maintains an inventory of all aboveground & underground fuel storage tanks located on Fisheries & Oceans property or controlled by DFO.

National Environmental Emergencies System (NEES) 1974-2003 NEES In 2000, the Emergencies program implemented NEES, a reporting system for spills of hazardous substances. For the most part, this system only captured data from the Atlantic Provinces, some from Quebec and Ontario and a portion from British Columbia. Data for Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and the Territories was not captured. However, NEES is also a repository for all previous Environment Canada spill datasets. NEES is composed of the historic datasets – or Trends – which dates from approximately 1974 to present. NEES Trends is a compilation of historic databases, which were merged and includes data from NATES (National Analysis of Trends in Emergencies System), ARTS (Atlantic Regional Trends System), and NEES. In 2001, the Emergencies Program determined that variations in reporting regimes and requirements between federal and provincial agencies made national spill reporting and trend analysis difficult to achieve. As a consequence, the department has focused efforts on capturing data on spills of substances which fall under its legislative authority only (CEPA and FA). As such, the NEES database will be decommissioned in December 2004. National PCB Inventory 1988-June 2004 NPCB Environment Canada’s National PCB inventory includes information on in-use PCB containing equipment in Canada including federal, provincial and private facilities. All federal out-of-service PCB containing equipment and all PCB waste owned by the federal government or by federally regulated industries such as airlines, railway companies, broadcasting companies, telephone and telecommunications companies, pipeline companies, etc. are also listed. Although it is not Environment Canada’s mandate to collect data on non-federal PCB waste, the National PCB inventory includes some information on provincial and private PCB waste and storage sites. National Pollutant Release Inventory 1993-2007 NPRI Environment Canada has defined the National Pollutant Release Inventory (“NPRI”) as a federal government initiative designed to collect comprehensive national data regarding releases to air, water, or land, and waste transfers of 178 specified substances. Parks Canada Fuel Storage Tanks 1920-Jan 2005 PCFT Canadian Heritage maintains an inventory of all known fuel storage tanks operated by Parks Canada, in both National Parks and at National Historic Sites. The database details information on site name, location, tank install/removal date, capacity, fuel type, facility type, tank design and owner/operator. Transport Canada Fuel Storage Tanks 1970-March 2007 TCFT With the provinces of BC, MB, NB, NF, ON, PE, and QC; Transport Canada currently owns and operates 90 fuel storage tanks. This inventory will also include The Pickering Lands, which refers to the 7,530 hectares (18,600 acres) of land in Pickering, Markham and Uxbridge - owned by the Government of Canada since 1972. Properties on this land has been leased by the government since 1975, falls under the Site Management Policy of Transport Canada, but administered by Public Works and Government Services Canada. Our inventory provides information on the site name, location, tank age, capacity and fuel type. Private Source Databases: Anderson’s Waste Disposal Sites 1860s-Present ANDR The information provided in this database was collected by examining various historical documents which aimed to characterize the likely position of former waste disposal sites from 1860 to present. The research initiative behind the creation of this database was to identify those sites that are missing from the Ontario MOE Waste Disposal Site Inventory, as well as to provide revisions and corrections to the positions and descriptions of sites currently listed in the MOE inventory. In addition to historic waste disposal facilities, the database also identifies certain auto wreckers and scrap yards that have been extrapolated from documentary sources. Please note that the data is not warranted to be complete, exhaustive or authoritive. The information was collected for research purposes only.
