  • Checklist Flora of the Former Carden Township, City of Kawartha Lakes, on 2016
    Hairy Beardtongue (Penstemon hirsutus) Checklist Flora of the Former Carden Township, City of Kawartha Lakes, ON 2016 Compiled by Dale Leadbeater and Anne Barbour © 2016 Leadbeater and Barbour All Rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system or database, or transmitted in any form or by any means, including photocopying, without written permission of the authors. Produced with financial assistance from The Couchiching Conservancy. The City of Kawartha Lakes Flora Project is sponsored by the Kawartha Field Naturalists based in Fenelon Falls, Ontario. In 2008, information about plants in CKL was scattered and scarce. At the urging of Michael Oldham, Biologist at the Natural Heritage Information Centre at the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry, Dale Leadbeater and Anne Barbour formed a committee with goals to: • Generate a list of species found in CKL and their distribution, vouchered by specimens to be housed at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, making them available for future study by the scientific community; • Improve understanding of natural heritage systems in the CKL; • Provide insight into changes in the local plant communities as a result of pressures from introduced species, climate change and population growth; and, • Publish the findings of the project . Over eight years, more than 200 volunteers and landowners collected almost 2000 voucher specimens, with the permission of landowners. Over 10,000 observations and literature records have been databased. The project has documented 150 new species of which 60 are introduced, 90 are native and one species that had never been reported in Ontario to date.

Opened by Repac, the 332.1-hectare site has been operated by The Miller Group since September 1984. Formations in the Lake Simcoe region are middle Ordovician and were probably deposited in a supratidal to intertidal intracontinental shelf environment. Carden Quarry is situated within this region in a physiographic area known as the Carden Plain. The uppermost bedrock is limestone of the Bobcaygeon Formation, beneath which is limestone of the Gull River Formation. These deposits are extracted at Carden and manufactured into numerous high-grade limestone products for concrete and asphalt as well as granular road grade. With a permanent processing plant in place, including a wash and an asphalt plant, Carden provides materials internally for Miller’s asphalt and concrete operations, as well as many external projects. External work includes such projects as this year’s Boundary Road reconstruction, only a few kilometers beyond the quarry gates, to further afield work including major extension projects on both of Highways 404 and 407.

It is anticipated that these will be finalized over the next few months. For this reason, Schedule D – Transportation has not been included at this time. Schedule E – Mineral Aggregate Resource Areas (MARAs) and Haul Routes is included but only shows the MARAs and not the Haul Routes. Specific public meetings will be held with respect to these matters at a latter date to be incorporated into the plan. The policies related to Transportation and Haul Routes might be further amended at that time. It is anticipated that in 2007 that the Lindsay and Fenelon Falls Official Plans will be updated and that a plan for Bobcaygeon will also be prepared. These will form community plans to this document. When these plans are updated, they will be geographically expanded beyond the former boundary of the urban municipalities. Additional land will be designated for development if there is servicing capacity within the municipal infrastructure. The Oak Ridges Moraine area is already covered by a specific official plan in keeping with the Provincial Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan.
