Subject of Presentation
Please describe below, the subject matter of the requested presentation in sufficient detail, to provide
the Township a means to determine its content and to assess its relative priority to other requests for
presentation. Weight will be given to those requests that provide more detailed descriptions of the
content of the presentation, particularly defining how the subject matter aligns with Councils
Mandate. Please note, if you intend to include handouts or a presentation using electronic devices,
one (1) copy of any electronic presentation and fifteen (15) hard copies of the presentation including
any handouts and are to be delivered to the Clerks Office in accordance with the guidelines for
Deputations/Delegations outlined in the Townships Procedural By-law.
As a former councillor with the city and former member of the board of the Orillia Public Library, I
believe that there could be an agreement facilitated that would allow access for township
residents, balance the shared operating cost in an incremental way that is affordable and
reasonable for the townships to get "caught up", and provide much needed income for the library
board to operate our very important institution. Although, according to the Library Act of Ontario,
negotiations have to occur library board to library board – or in the case of the Township of Oro-
Medonte, Orillia Library Board to Mayor and Council, I believe there was information not made clear,
nor the ask considered reasonable and that an agreement can indeed be reached that would benefit
taxpayers to the north who find Barrie too far and Coldwater lacking in services and materials when
compared to Orillia. I have asked for a deputation in Orillia as well. I know an agreement can be
reached.
Reason why this presentation is important to Council and to the municipality:
As a taxpayer in the north end of the township, and as a former Ward 2 candidate during the last
municipal election, this was the request I received the most: “Can we get library services back and
not just the subsidy allowed as provided currently?” I didn’t get elected but believe I can still assist in
achieving this most important goal.

- Longer lasting than traditional lights: 100,000 hours compared to 1,000 hours
- Longer lasting than halogen lights: 100,000 hours compared to 2,000 hours
- Longer lasting than fluorescent lights: 100,000 hours compared to 15,000 hours
- LEDs operate on very low voltage (under 5V), thus a very secure environment
and easy current transportation.
- Leds light on and off very quickly, allowing them to react instantly to signals
from short or long distance, such as with fiber optic. Leds instantly attain their
full brightness.
- Because of their high efficiency, typical LEDs of 5 mm or less, barely heat and
will never burn your fingers.
- Combining RGB (red-green-blue) leds allows an almost unlimited number of
colors to be produced.
How to choose your digital sign?
Resolution is the most important factor. Screen resolution is
measured by PITCH. Pitch is the distance between pixels,
measured in millimetres (mm). One pixel is a combination of
3 leds, 1 red, 1 green and 1 blue. The closer these pixels
are to each other, the better the image will be. A Pitch 10, or P10 screen, will
have 10mm between each pixel. A Pitch 16, or P16 screen, will have 16mm
between each pixel, so the image quality of a P16 will be less than with a P10.
Of course, a lot has to do with the average viewing distance. If your screen will
be seen from close (10 to 150 metres) then it is recommended to use the highest
resolution possible such as P10. If your screen is usually seen from far away (20
to 200 metres), then a higher pitch screen such as a P16 will be OK. The lower
the pitch, the higher the quality of the image.
Brightness: Brightness is calculated in nits. 1 nit = 1 candela/M² (also called 1
Lumen). A normal digital sign will generate 5000 to 8000 nits. Too much
brightness will increase the electrical consumption and be too bright. Under
5000 nits, the screen may be to dim in direct sunlight. 5000 nits is good for most
applications.

Power consumption: P10 screens, because of their high resolution and
brightness, can work with ¼ scan processing, meaning it takes ¼ of the power to
operate them. P16 screens are not bright enough so full scan is used, and more
power is consumed. Over a year, a P10 screen will offer higher resolution and
cost less in electricity. The initial purchase cost is higher, but the payback is
quite rapid.
Do digital signs contribute to light pollution?
A digital sign produces 5000 nits of brightness, the same amount
as daylight on a sunny day. During the day, a digital sign does not
add any brightness to the environment. At night, the intensity of
the screen automatically reduces to 20% of daylight levels, or
1000 nits. This brightness level is less than most of the lighting
produced by street lights, fluorescent lights or other signage.
As well, led lighting is very directional, causing very little lighting loss. Leds only
project light horizontally and forward compared to other light sources which
project in every direction. The ambient lighting of a digital sign is less than with a
traditional sign.
Digital signs also have the flexibility of adjusting the brightness, depending on the
location, which traditional signs do not have.
Do digital signs consume much power?
Leds consume much less electricity than traditional lighting and will last up to 10
times longer. An average size digital sign, P10 measuring 2560mm X 1440mm
(8-5 x 4-9), will consume an average of 930 watts, the equivalent of 10 regular
light bulbs.
Will digital signs distract automobile drivers?
Several studies demonstrate that digital signs have no significant influence on
the amount of automobile accidents where they are present. Several cities have
had digital signs for many years and no increase in accidents has been reported.

2 studies on digital signs and road safety
Driving Performance and Digital Billboards
Center for Automotive Safety Research
March 22, 2007
Here are the findings of the study:
Measured number of eye glances from auto drivers towards signs shows no
difference between traditional signs and digital signs during daylight.
Tested drivers looked at digital signs longer than traditional signs during
daylight.
When the drivers glance exceeds 1.6 seconds on one sign, these glances are
equal between traditional and digital signs he looked at.
At night time, results show that glances are more frequent towards digital signs
than traditional signs.
In the after-test questionnaire, 42% of drivers mentioned publicity signs as one
of the five elements that captured their attention. Drivers were not aware of the
reasons for the test before they took the wheel. Drivers were not asked to look at
anything in particular nor given any specific instructions.
2 drivers in the study mentioned that a digital sign was the most memorable
part of the experience.
The study concludes that digital signs do not attract more driver attention during
the day, and slightly more during the night.
A STUDY OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN
DIGITAL BILLBOARDS AND TRAFFIC SAFETY IN CUYAHOGA
COUNTY, OHIO
July 7, 2007

Here are the conclusions of the Tantala study:

Page 48 of 292
8.b) 7:10 p.m. Ruth Plowright, Libertevision and Tom Stoate,...
www.libertevision.com
For each digital sign installed, accident statistics 12 months before and 12
months after installation (24 months total) did not change in any significant
manner. The same conclusion was found for a period 18 months before and
after (36 months total).
The study makes no link or correlation between vehicle accidents and the 7
digital signs in the study. These correlations strongly suggest that there is no link
between digital publicity signs and vehicle accidents.
Road accidents happen regardless of the presence of traditional or digital
publicity signs. The statistics of accidents on roads with or without digital signs
are comparable. The number of accidents is more linked to other factors such as
drunk driving, road kill, speeding or weather.
Are digital signs easy to integrate in an urban plan?
A digital sign is completely programmable. They have the advantage of being
adaptable to all conditions and regulations in different cities, counties and
provinces.
Days and hours of operation are programmable
Automatic and manual brightness control
Messages are fully programmable
Message length is programmable
Many screen sizes are available

Are digital signs compatible with current signage
regulations?
Most cities regulate the size of signs, quantity,
location and lighting type. Digital signs answer in all
points to most city regulations. Digital signs also
offer a number of advantages for cities and
businesses alike:
More attractive, generally smaller in surface than traditional signs,
digital signs eliminate the need for extra posters or banners as the
message changes accordingly. Businesses appreciate them
because they can inform their customers of promotions in real
time.
What other advantages?
A digital sign is remote controlled from almost anywhere. This feature allows
digital sign managers to instantly publish messages of public interest, in case of
an emergency. In Toronto and Montreal, the network of digital signs operated by
Astral Media is at the disposal of the police authorities to broadcast messages in
case of an emergency (amber alerts).
Digital signs are currently used by cities to announce the arrival and departure of
public transit.
Digital signs are used inside buses to indicate routes and location.
Digital signs are used by gas stations to advise customers of
pricing on a daily basis, without having to climb up every day!
Digital are used by the ministry of transportation for driver
information.
Digital signs are used to announce upcoming and current
events at stadiums, convention centres, arenas, municipal halls
and other public areas.
Taxes : Over and above signage permits, digital signs create economic activity
which in turns bring tax revenues to the city.

8.b) 7:10 p.m. Ruth Plowright, Libertevision and Tom Stoate,...
www.libertevision.com
Economic activity: Digital signs entice businesses and cities to replace their
outdated signage with newer digital signs. Digital signs bring activity to a number
of sectors such as: sign companies, cement, steel, electronic components, paint,
construction materials, electricians, equipment rental, insurance, design
agencies, transportation, masonry, landscaping, wireless communication,
publicity agencies and more.
Are digital signs hazardous to the
environment?
Digital signs are the most eco-friendly signs of
all! Because the images are digital, there is no
ink, paper, glue, canvas or vinyl being used
over and over again.
Digital signs will save 80,640 square feet of
vinyl every year. This translates into an
economy of 5,228 mega joules of energy and a reduction of 2.1 metric tons of
CO², required for the production of vinyl and digital signs are only at their
beginning!
Digital signs are managed remotely, eliminating the need to go on location every
time, thus saving gas and gas emissions.
Digital signs operate with electricity; clean and renewable energy.
Digital signs automatically reduce brightness at night, reducing power
consumption and light pollution.
Digital signs will last 10 years or more.
Will there be digital signs everywhere?
All businesses currently have an exterior advertising sign. Digital signs will not
add any new signs, but rather replace them with often smaller, more attractive
signage. The transition will take time and will slowly help cities become more
beautiful, modern, and commercially viable.

An enticement to invest in the city!
In most cases, the installation of a digital is a major investment for a business
and will entice them to improve the exterior appearance and overall image of
their business:
- Change, modernise, repaint and improve their existing sign
- Invest in the exterior appearance of the store or business
- Improve the landscaping
- Improve the business image
- Conform to municipal signage regulations
- Accelerate the positive development of an area (me too effect)
- Invest in the economic development of the city!

Construction Report No. 7
1.0PROJECTOVERVIEW
Financial Status Overview
1.1
Please see attached Appendix A for a summary of the current financial status of the project. Joe
Emmons from SBSG has updated the spreadsheet to reflect purchasing and expenditures since the
last report and other changes.
There is a current projected cost over-run abovetheCouncil approved budget of $3,629,387. See
attached Appendix Afor details. An overrun has been consistent on the project for some time now.
We remind the Township that there is always financial risk in any construction project, and that in this
CM format, there is continued risk until project completion. We are done with the bulk of the major
purchasing but there is inherent riskwith the civil works left to complete- septic, fire water tanks, site
drainage, until the work is complete. Thereis still at least 2 months of work left to complete and it
would not be out of the ordinary to encounter adjustments and additional work as the mechanical and
electrical systems get advancedtowards completion.
Ageneral contingency of$152,155 (5% of initial costs estimates)remainsincluded in the budget
however,
. It is our understanding thatthe
Township has also developedfinancial contingencyplansoutside theboundsof thisreportbut we
are not aware of those specifics.
Change Orders are captured in Section 2 as isa listingof anyUnresolved Changes. These unresolved
changesarestillbeing worked through on an ongoingbasis-thereare a few that represent fairly
significant cost.Some are a resultof scope changes, somea result of unknownexisting
conditions, and some a result ofdesign adjustments.Wehave done our best throughout construction
to keep thebudget updatedas the financial informationbecomesavailableas well as advise the
Townshipaboutpotentialrisk areasas they relateto budget overruns.
Schedule Status Overview
1.2
The building is almost closed in, save and except the front entrance- the curtain wallframing has
started andthe glass and spandrel panelsshould arrive in about4 weeks.
The rink slab is installedand the wet cure was very successful. The mason is now essentially
complete except for small patching and the tie-ins at the warm viewing area.
We are still driving towards an end of November completionalthough this is looking very tight. The
critical path has switched to primarily interior work now- mechanical and electrical roughins,
refrigeration plant construction,Low E install has started and Rink Board installation should begin
shortly.

Construction Report No. 7
The front entrance will come together slightly later than the balance of the facilitygiven some
unexpected issues with old rusted steel and some tie-in details of old to new roofing.
We
understand that the Township hascontingency plans in place for user groups to have other ice
space available for the2014/2015seasonwhich is a prudent course of action and has been
recommended by us since the onset of construction.Construction completion dates are contingent on
many moving targets and variables but every effort is being put forward to maintain an end of
November completion target.This is mostly still dependent on each critical path sub tradeperforming
and deliveries holding as planned. We are having weekly trade production meetings and are
expediting deliveries as much as possible.
Although we remain hopefulabout the completion date, there is certainly no guarantee, and we advise
the Township to continue with contingency planning until we have more certainty at the end of October
as to what the actual completion date is shaping up to be.

INANCIAL EPORT
See attached updated financial forecastspreadsheet. This spreadsheet has been updated with a detailed
breakdown of the sub-trade pricing as it has becomeknown after the Tenders and prices are received and
evaluated. (See Appendix A.)The report shows that the current SBSG projection given the known costs. In
report #2, presented to Council, suggestions were made for consideration to be given to reducethe scope
of the project in light of projected overruns.However,Council decidedtoproceed with the full scope of the
project in spite of aprojected overrunat that time.We have also included Appendix B outlining some of the
significant variances from the original estimate.
Again, thefollowing other considerations should be noted within the overall financial considerations of the
project:
The completion date willhave a financial impact to the project- some costs reoccur weekly until
project completion- i.e.somesite labour, the Site Superintendent wage, trailer rental, etc.
Excavation and backfill and any work underground often has more inherent risk than many other
aspects of these projects- there have been some prior problems and we still have to excavate for
the fire water storage tanks which may have unknowns which can be quite costly to deal with.
Removing or abandoning the existing septic tank and bollards is currently not in the project scope
but will need to be completed presumably in order to make thatportion of the parking area
usable.This will be a fairly significant cost.
Asphalt patching andany new asphalt is not currently part of the project scope- this will have to be
dealt with by the Township at some point in order to make the parking lot suitable for snowplows
etc. This would include the granular prep below the new asphalt.We understand that the Township
is sourcing asphalt quotes for new asphalt atthe front entryand the rear area at the Olympia room.
Testing of certain things like concrete, compaction, steel inspection etc.by EXPis included as an
estimate in the budget of $5,000. The end cost will not be known definitively until project completion

but costs are likely to well exceed this particular budget line item. However, quality control, which
this line represents, should remain a priority in ouropinion.
Some of the costs for things that the Township staff/departments can accomplish on their own like
landscaping and curbing at the front entrance and rear area etc. were previously removed from the
construction budgetand are to be completed outside the scope of this project. This will be
something the Township will need to consider in more detail as the outside of the building will not
appear ‘finished’ until this landscaping type work is completed.
The drainage off the site is developing into something more significant than originally planned given
the uncovering of some catch basins and clay piping on the neighbour’s property and NE corner of
the arena that were not originally known about during design- this is also an unknown cost at this
time.The Township plans on completing it on a time and material basis.
IT services are to be provided by Oro- nothing in the current scopes of work other than some
conduit roughin.
Some additional painting is likely going to be donebyOroown forces-the design intent was never
to repaint the wholefacilitybut in an effort totryand touch up as muchas possible, the Township
istakingon some additional work

Monthly Construction Report No. 7
6.0SAFETY
6.1 Safety Update
Leader Industries has been retained by the Township and SBSG to perform safety orientation consulting
services for the project. They are performing routine audits during construction to help ensure compliance
with the OHSA as well as the safety policies and procedures of the Township.There are currently no
concerns around safety from any of the Team members.SBSG asks the entire Team at each site
meeting whether there are concerns or not, and nothing notable has been raised. The public does use
the adjacent fields and parking becomes quite crowded at night and on weekends but the parking is
outside the perimeter fencing of the project.
The MOL visited the site in late September. There were a few orders that were issued for some small
issues that required correcting. These were complied with and the MOL was notified of such. Leader
Industries was contacted to seek their recommendation and assistance after the visit.
7.0PROJECTCLOSEOUT
7.1 Acceptance of Work
SBSG Consultants have been reviewing the process during construction to help ensure compliance of
the sub tradeswith the contract design.
EXPhas inspected all areas prior to footing placement and ischecking compaction of the granular.
They have also advised on all subsurface issues and necessary courses of action for dealing with the
unknown buried septic tank inside the building, the topsoil under the existing footings, the unsuitable
soils under the changeroom slab, as well as performing concrete testing to ensure quality control of
that important component.
The building department is also called at appropriate intervals to ensure proper inspections by them
are being completed. They recently reviewed the septic system installation.
7.2 Manuals/Warranties/As-Builds
SBSGwill be preparing O&M manuals as sub-trade submittals are approved. As-built drawings are
being maintained as well.SBSGwill update the IFC drawings with any Site Instruction, RFI
responses, or Change Orders issued. The Site Super will maintain a record set on site noting any
changes made at the site level.

7.3 Systems Commissioning
There will be commissioningof the building as we approach the completion of the project. Typically, the
mechanical systems require the most commissioning. There is not a formal commissioning agent
involved in the project- the mechanical sub-trade will be responsible to commission their own systems as
well as the rink plant subcontractor

MONITORING
Open water Monitoring
The Severn Sound open water monitoring program consists of collection of water quality
data from 14 stations distributed throughout Severn Sound. The stations are monitored
on a bi-weekly basis starting in late April Early May each year to late October. The
program is a core activity of SSEA and also receives funding from the Ministry of the
Environment, the Township of Georgian Bay and the Township of Tay. The laboratory
support of the Dorset Environmental Science Centre (MOE) has been arranged again
for 2014. Special equipment support from MOE EMRB (Fluoroprobe, particle scanner,
bottles and other sampling equipment) has also been arranged for 2014. Unfortunately,
lab support from some of our phytoplankton samples has been discontinued by MOE
starting in 2014. The additional phytoplankton samples will be processed through our
algae identification contractor. We also contract with Don Limoges, to provide boat and
As of October 7, 2014, we have completed the majority of
operator for the sampling.
our sampling of open water stations. We continued to sample North and South
Bay and one station off Snake Island on October 28, 2014 and at North Bay on
November 24, 2014 to ensure that we had monitored fall turnover.
The results of
the monitoring will be reported in technical and scientific reports produced as the data
becomes available. The next report will be the 2013 monitoring assessment and the
2013 Honey Harbour report expected in October, 2014.
Part of the open water sampling in 2014 (and during 2012 and 2013) included
sampling of the Victoria Harbour municipal water intake in conjunction with open water
sampling in Hogg Bay. We are conducting a comparison between a long-term station
(PM2) and the raw water at the inlet to the plant. This will allow use of the intake as a
monitoring station for chemistry at times when we cannot reach the open water station
safely. In addition, the sampling pump can be operated independently of the low lift
pumps to monitor raw water quality in the event of contingencies. A report on the
comparison is being prepared. A contingency plan is being developed with Tay staff for

will continue monthly through the winter at the pump house.
Inland Lakes
This project provides monitoring of inland lakes as required by municipal partners. For
example, the Town of Midland supports monitoring of Little Lake each year. Lakes in
other municipalities (Orr Lake in Springwater, Bass Lake in Oro-Medonte, MacLean
Lake in Severn and Farlain Lake in Tiny) have been monitored in the past.
Presentations have been made to each supporting municipality with individual reports
underway. Funding is provided by the individual municipality with some water quality

Midland. Sampling was completed for the fall as of October 1, 2014. We are
awaiting results. A report poster was presented at the recent Limnology (SCL)
Conference in Ottawa, comparing the water quality of inland lakes in the Severn
Sound watershed.
Lake Couchiching is monitored every five years (bi-weekly from spring to fall) along with
raw water from selected municipal water intakes (2003, 2008, 2013). The purpose of the
sampling is to monitor the trophic status of the lake and especially track the relation
between the toxin forming and taste and odour producing algae growing in the lake. The
work is supported by the Chippewas of Rama First Nation, the Township of Severn and
the City of Orillia. Data has now been received for 2013 and the reporting will be
. In addition to
combined in a technical report for 2008 and 2013 field year
presentations to the Township of Severn and the City of Orillia, we have
presented a progress report of findings to Lakehead University as they are
conducting additional sampling in the nearshore of the lake during 2014.
Nearshore characterization
SSEA and the MOE are working together to improve methods of tracking water quality
conditions in the nearshore waters of eastern Georgian Bay including Severn Sound.
Natural factors and human activities will be investigated to distinguish background
natural variation in nutrients from conditions resulting from human impact. This study
was initiated in late 2013 and is funded by the MOE under the Canada-Ontario
Agreement Respecting Great Lakes Water Quality. The study will use existing data and
will lead to improvements in future monitoring and enable improved detection of

common watershed and shoreline data from Severn Sound to the French River
for the analysis of open water quality.
Tributary monitoring
SSEA is a partner with the Provincial Water Quality Monitoring Network (PWQMN) with
a network of 12 tributary monitoring stations distributed through the watershed. Two
additional stations are sampled to cover other monitoring needs (Wye River at
th
Wyebridge and Lafontaine Creek at 13 Concession). Water samples are collected
seven times through the year and submitted to the MOE Rexdale Lab for analysis. The
results of this program provide an important long-term database to track changes in the
quality of streams. In addition to the PWQMN sampling additional sites are monitored
for nutrients and basic chemistry.
SSEA deploys over 50 temperature loggers each year throughout the watershed to
continuously monitor summer temperatures. By monitoring the temperature regime for
streams the amount of groundwater influence of streams and the habitat suitability for

GROUNDWATER STUDIES
PGMN
SSEA is a partner with the Provincial Groundwater Quality Monitoring Network (PGMN),
a long-term agreement with MOE to develop a network of monitoring wells in the Severn
Sound watershed which are monitored for water level and water quality. The nine
monitoring wells operated by SSEA have been instrumented for continuous water level
recording and are downloaded on a bi-monthly basis. Water quality samples are
collected each fall using a Ministry protocol with water samples submitted to the MOE
laboratory for analysis. The latest summary of trends and quality can be found in the
Source Water Assessment Report for Severn Sound SPA. The sampling is carried out

quality sampling later this fall.
OGS
SSEA will be partnering with the Ontario Geological Survey (OGS) and the NVCA in
support of mapping of groundwater resources in the majority of the Severn Sound
watershed starting in 2014. Our role will be advisory as the OGS will fund and lead the
project. The benefit to the Severn Sound area will be the detailed mapping which will
improve our understanding of the ground water resources of the area (including as
future water supplies) and the construction of monitoring wells in bore holes that are
drilled as part of the study. Another OGS activity that should be reported in 2014 will be
a water quality assessment of groundwater in the majority of the Severn Sound
watershed.
Well location survey
SSEA is also working with the Town of Midland during 2014 to locate private wells
within the Town. The well locations, wherever possible, will be reconciled with the MOE
Water Well Information System of drilling records for use in future groundwater studies
and to provide assistance, on a priority basis, to the landowners for well
decommissioning.
BEACH MONITORING
The Simcoe-Muskoka District Health Unit provides routine monitoring of public beaches
in the Severn Sound area. This data is shared with SSEA each year to provide a basis
for reporting to MOE as a commitment to the Severn Sound Remedial Action Plan.

HABITAT EVALUATION
Natural Heritage Inventory (Township of Tiny)
In 2013 and 2014, the SSEA is conducting a Natural Heritage Inventory for the
Township of Tiny. The project is a planning tool that identifies important natural heritage
features, and will assist with making informed decisions regarding natural heritage and
land use planning. The project includes mapping of existing habitat and conditions, and
scoring features such as woodlands, wetlands and other habitat, to evaluate the natural
heritage of the Township. This work will provide important technical background for the

completed in December, 2014 for review and update. A presentation to the
Township will be arranged in early 2015.
Wetland Evaluation
Wetland evaluation of the Picottes Creek wetland area will be undertaken starting in
2014 with an evaluation team from the Toronto Zoo working in cooperation with SSEA.
The standards used in the Ontario Wetland Evaluation System (OWES) have been
recently updated. In addition, technological advancements, such as aerial photography
and GPS units, now enable more accurate mapping of wetland boundaries. Provincial
policy requires that Provincially Significant wetlands be protected from development
impacts. Through the Conservation Land Tax Incentive Program, landowners with
Provincially Significant wetlands on their property are eligible for a 100% tax exemption
for all lands within the wetland, if they agree to protect its natural heritage values. If the
evaluation scoring using OWES results in a provincially significant score, the results and
mapping of the wetland boundary will be reviewed and when accepted by MNR, will be
included in the provincially significant wetland layer that is used by MNR, the County of

assistance from SSEA. Additional field work will be completed in 2015 as funding
allows. The wetland evaluation will follow.
Nearshore habitat
Nearshore habitat will be further evaluated during 2014 using integrated prototype sonar
equipment along with side-scan sonar equipment to provide mapping of the habitat

conditions in the nearshore waters of Severn Sound. The survey is designed to acquire
detailed bathymetric, mineral substrate, and submerged aquatic vegetation coverage
from selected shallow-water sites in the nearshore waters. The survey will be used to
demonstrate and evaluate new, cost-effective methods to collect shallow-water data in
areas not normally surveyed using conventional acoustic survey techniques. The 2014
work is funded through the fish habitat project as a cooperative study agreement with
the University of Windsor. Funding for the current work comes from DFO, Le Cle de la

later this month with HCF, SSEA, University of Windsor and MNR as
collaborators, to provide longer term support (2015-2018) so that all of Severn
Sound nearshore can be mapped using the new techniques. A draft report of
findings for selected areas is expected later this year.
Stream drainage mapping
As part of a two year project (2013-2014) SSEA is updating the mapping of stream
drainage to todays mapping standards with funding and ortho photos support from the
County of Simcoe. The stream network update will provide a base for a number of
stream and habitat assessments and provide municipalities with accurate mapping for
their planning departments.
SOURCE WATER PROTECTION
The Source Protection Program in the South Georgian Bay Lake Simcoe Region
(including Severn Sound SPA) is the local response to the Ontario Clean Water Act.
The implementation of the policies contained in the SPP (final draft recently submitted
to the Province) involve municipal as well as provincial responsibilities under the Clean
Water Act (CWA). The lead Source Protection Authority in our Region (LSRCA) has
been funded by the province to undertake activities required under the CWA and the
associated Regulations and Provincial guidance documents. The SSEA has been a part
of this process through a series of capacity building agreements with LSRCA including
the current agreement for 2014/2015 government fiscal year. The updated products and
activities that SSEA has been involved in during 2014 include:
The revised Assessment Reports (one each for each area including Severn
Sound) submitted July 4, 2014 (including the revision of the wellfields in the
Midland municipal water system);
The update of significant drinking water threats in the Severn Sound area and
adjoining areas of Severn and Oro-Medonte Township and Muskoka District.

Several webinars have been conducted by MOECC during September
and early October, to facilitate information flow to Risk Management
Officials and Inspectors as well as for the Education and Outreach
materials to both Source Protection Authorities and municipal staff.
The review of the South Georgian Bay Lake Simcoe Source Protection Plan by the
MOECC is ongoing.
Risk Management Services
SSEA has also provided Risk Management Services to eight of the nine municipalities
in the Severn Sound Source Protection area including adjoining areas of Severn and
Oro-Medonte Township and Muskoka District. Funding of these services through a
separate municipal agreement (2013 and 2014) is providing field verification and
preparation of files to support the development and review of Risk Management Plans
for existing significant drinking water threats and pre-consultation services for future
potential threats to municipal drinking water supplies. Each participating municipality
has received a summary report on the 2013 findings and a 2014 report will be prepared
following evaluation of threat properties requiring further visits and research on products
in use.
STEWARDSHIP
Tree Distribution and Tree Planting Program
During 2014, SSEA helped increase the number of trees in the Severn Sound area by
administering the Tree Seedling Distribution Program and the SSEAs Healthy Streams
& Habitat Tree Planting Program. The objective of the Tree Seedling Distribution
program is to promote local tree planting, improving environmental health and
increasing tree cover in the Severn Sound area. During 2014, over 8,750 reasonably-
priced, native tree and shrub seedlings were distributed to private landowners from
Severn Sound municipalities. Funding for the Tree Distribution program comes from the
Dufferin-Simcoe Stewardship Council and the participating landowners. In-kind support
comes from participating municipalities.
The Healthy Streams & Habitat Tree Planting Program was responsible for planting
5,550 tree seedlings at more than 10 sites in 2014. The goal of the program is to
enhance forest cover and improve water quality in streams and rivers by planting
buffers along waterways. Since 1992, well over 200,000 tree seedlings have been
planted through our stream rehabilitation program. Planting is carried out by Scouts
Canada and other community volunteers as well as the landowners.
Community Stewardship Program
Severn Sound Environmental Association is a partner in the Lake Simcoe Southeastern
Georgian Bay Community Stewardship Program (CSP). The CSP is a three-year
program that provides technical advice and financial assistance to property owners
for a variety of water quality improvement projects, such as: septic system
upgrades/replacements, shoreline erosion control and restoration, stream and fisheries
12

improvements, livestock exclusions and nutrient containment, and other environmental
initiatives. Rural residents, farmers, cottagers and shoreline owners in the Severn
Sound area (including the Township of Tay) are eligible to participate in the program.
Attending a workshop is a pre-requisite for accessing financial incentives for projects.
To date, 3 workshops have been held in the area.
The project coordinator for our
area is Carrie MacIntyre. The project is funded by Environment Canada through the
Lake Simcoe Southeastern Georgian Bay Cleanup Fund. SSEA is receiving support for
our staff involvement as part of the project funding. The majority of the funding will be
going to support landowner projects.
Yellow Fish Road
Severn Sound Environmental Association is coordinating the Yellow Fish Road program
in the area during 2014. Participating groups are provided with painting supplies and
instructions for conducting a storm drain marking event. These supplies have been
provided by Trout Unlimited and SSEA supports the program with summer contract
participation in facilitating the program with community groups.
PUBLIC CONSULTATION
SSEA staff participate in presentations and displays at various community events
throughout Severn Sound. During 2014 so far, staff have attended meetings or events
of the Huronia Woodland Owners Association, Sweetwater Harvest (Wye Marsh), SSEA
Tree Distribution day, Bass Lake Ratepayers Association, Canada Day (Honey
Harbour, Midland), Lake Simcoe Georgian Bay Wetland Collaborative Workshop, and
Heritage Day . Staff have made presentations at all municipal Councils.
A presentation was also made at the International Great Lakes Research Conference in
Hamilton this May on water quality conditions in Severn Sound.

Re:
Source Protection Committee Update
Chair Stevens and Members,
I am sending you this memo in order to update you and the members of the Severn Sound Source
Protection Authority (SPA) on the activities of the South Georgian Bay Lake Simcoe (SGBLS) Source
Protection Committee.
With your endorsement, the Source Protection Committee submitted the Source Protection Plan and
Assessment Reports to the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change (MOECC) for review on the
rd
3 of July, 2014. Since the time of submission, two informal comments and seven comments were
received on the Source Protection Plan and Assessment Report, respectively. The comments were minor
in nature and did not require any critical changes to be made to the policies or technical work. The
comments received were reviewed and approved by the Source Protection Committee, and the
documents were resubmitted to the Minister in December.
Over the past few months, a number of source protection regions have had their plans approved, bringing
rd
the total number of approved plans to 11. Since submission on July 3, 2014, the SGBLS Source
Protection Plan has also steadily been moving through the stages of the MOECCs approval process.
The plan is now at the final stage of the approvals process and is anticipated to be approved early this
year. MOECC staff have advised that we work towards preparing ourselves for a mid 2015 plan effective
date.
Preparing for Implementation
With the impending approval of the Source Protection Plan, efforts to prepare municipalities for
implementation have continued. Three municipal workshops were hosted through the months of
September and October 2014 across the source protection region. One of the workshops was specifically
targeted at municipalities in the Severn Sound watershed. The intent of the workshops was to advise key
planning and building department staff of their implementation responsibilities under the Clean Water Act,
and SGBLS source protection plan. Through a series of presentations and hands-on activities, municipal
staff were provided with the tools and knowledge needed fulfill their responsibilities under source water
protection requirements.
During the workshops, municipalities were also encouraged to initiate collaborations with one other to
ensure their eligibility to receive collaboration funding available under the MOECCs Source Protection
Implementation Funding program. Municipalities also recognized that by working together they would be
Page 216 of 292
Page 1 of 2
12.d) Severn Sound Environmental Association and Severn Soun...
able to reduce their individual workload, while advancing their readiness to implement the Source
Protection Plan. All of the content and relevant links to Implementation are available on our website at
www.ourwatershed.ca. This includes links to presentations from our workshops and other resources.
In addition to the workshops, we are continuing to work with your staff to help prepare for implementation,
including closely tracking the various stages your municipality is in with regards to readiness for
implementation and providing support when needed.
Collaboration Funding
In November 2013 the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change announced their commitment to
funding eligible municipalities to help prepare for source protection implementation. The funding was to be
provided in three installments over the next 3 years. In 2014, the first installment was received by eligible
municipalities that chose to accept the funding. As an incentive to encourage collaboration, additional
funding of up to $15,000 was made available to municipalities that elected to collaborate with other eligible
implementing authorities. In order to receive the funding, municipalities were required to complete and
submit a collaboration statement that detailed the activities they would be cooperating on by December
th
, 2014.
12
Municipalities in the Severn Sound watershed have joined together to form a collaboration working group
and have submitted collaboration statements to the MOECC. Two additional collaboration working groups
were also formed by municipalities in Dufferin County, and the Simcoe County municipalities located in the
Nottawasaga Valley and Lake Simcoe watersheds. All three collaboration groups are currently working to
develop a number of tools and processes that will advance implementation readiness in their respective
municipalities.
Council Workshops
In an effort to provide new and returning council members an opportunity to orientate themselves on the
SGBLS source protection program, source protection staff and committee members will be hosting two
Open Houses in early March 2015. Staff and committee members will provide an overview of the program
to date, discuss future direction, and be available to answer questions you may have. Information
regarding the timing and location of Open Houses will be provided to you shortly.
Looking Ahead
The next few months will be a busy time as we prepare for the approval and release of the Source
Protection Plan and assist municipalities with their final preparations in the months leading up to the
source protection plan effective date.
Thank you for your time.

To the Mayor and Council;
You are cordially invited to the annual Climate Change Adaptation Seminar on February 11, 2015
in Vaughan, Ontario, jointly hosted by the Ontario Water Works Association and the Water
Environment Association of Ontario. Climate change and extreme weather are having a major
impact on Ontario municipalities. Flooding in cities like Toronto, Thunder Bay, Stratford,
Orangeville and Burlington to name a few are costing municipal governments, businesses and
residents millions of dollars every year, and the issue is not going away extreme weather is the
new norm.
We often assume that adapting to climate change is too expensive, yet there are a number of
simple, cost-effective solutions that we can implement now to build climate-resilient
communities. Because municipalities are very much on the front lines of dealing with climate
enhance their extreme-weather prepar
councillors and mayors: buy one registration, and get a second for free!
Please see the attached flyer for more information and to register, and pass it along to any
colleagues you think may be interested. We hope to see you on February 11!
