(Stantec) was retained by Nautical Lands General Contractors Inc. (Nautical Lands Group) to complete a Stage 1 archaeological assessment of the proposed Wellings of Brockville Development (the Project) located at 3064 and 3076 Parkedale Avenue, part of Lots 14 and 15, Concession 2, Geographic Township of Elizabethtown, United Counties of Leeds and Grenville, City of Brockville, Ontario. The proposed development includes a planned residential community, internal roads, greenspaces, and community common structures. The study area is approximately 5.3 hectares (ha) in size and is composed of undeveloped woodlot, meadow, steep slope and wetland. The study area is roughly bounded by Parkedale Avenue on the south and private properties on the remaining sides. The property visit demonstrated that parts of the study area, approximately 73.9% (3.9 hectares), retain archaeological potential. Areas identified as having no or low archaeological potential were also identified and confirmed during the property visit and comprise low and wet areas (approximately 17.6% [0.95 hectares]), steeply sloped areas (approximately 7.5% [0.4 hectares]), and areas of previous disturbance (approximately 1.0% [0.05 hectares]). The Stage 1 archaeological assessment, involving background research and a property inspection, resulted in the determination that portions of the study area retain potential for the identification and recovery of archaeological resources. In accordance with Section 1.3.1 and Section 7.7.4 of the MHSTCI’s 2011 Standards and Guidelines for Consultant Archaeologists (Government of Ontario 2011), Stage 2 archaeological assessment is required for any portion of the Project’s anticipated construction which impacts an area of archaeological potential. The objective of the Stage 2 archaeological assessment will be to document any archaeological resources within the portions of the study area still retaining archaeological potential and to determine whether these archaeological resources require further assessment. As the property is inaccessible for ploughing the Stage 2 archaeological assessment will include test pit survey as outlined in Section 2.1.2 of the MHSTCI’s 2011 Standards and Guidelines for Consultant Archaeologists (Government of Ontario 2011). The MHSTCI’s standards require that each test pit be at least 30 centimetres in diameter, excavated to at least five centimetres into subsoil, and have soil screened through six millimetre hardware cloth to facilitate the recovery of any cultural material that may be present. Prior to backfilling, each test pit will be examined for stratigraphy, cultural features, or evidence of fill. Should any additional areas of disturbance or features indicating that archaeological potential has been removed, including permanently wet areas and steep slopes, not previously identified during the Stage 1 property inspection be encountered during the Stage 2 archaeological assessment, they will be documented as outlined in Section 2.1.8 of the MHSTCI’s 2011 Standards and Guidelines for Consultant Archaeologists (Government of Ontario 2011). iii STAGE 1 ARCHAEOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT: PROPOSED WELLINGS OF BROCKVILLE DEVELOPMENT The remaining parts of the study area were demonstrated to be composed of low and wet, steeply sloped or previously disturbed areas. These areas were identified as having low to no archaeological potential. In accordance with Section 1.3.2 and Section 7.7.4 of the MHSTCI’s 2011 Standards and Guidelines for Consultant Archaeologists (Government of Ontario 2011), Stage 2 archaeological assessment is not required for any portion of the Project’s anticipated construction which impacts an area of low to no archaeological potential. The MHSTCI is asked to accept this report into the Ontario Public Register of Archaeological Reports. iv STAGE 1 ARCHAEOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT: PROPOSED WELLINGS OF BROCKVILLE DEVELOPMENT Project Personnel Licensed Archaeologist: Patrick Hoskins, MA (P415) Project Manager: Colin Varley, MA, RPA (P002) Licensed Field Director: Patrick Hoskins, MA (P415) Report Writer: Patrick Hoskins, MA (P415) GIS Specialist: Stephanie Wen Quality Review: Colin Varley, MA, RPA (P002) Independent Review: Tracie Carmichael, BA, B.Ed.

    Stadacona Circle / Park

    Stadacona Circle / Park The question could be asked: Do we know why Fred B. and Ella Grinnell gave Stadacona Circle (on 11 th Avenue East between Ivory and Arthur) to the city of Spokane? Many people remember the park, but very few remember the name. “Some of Spokane’s first ‘suburban’ neighborhoods were those planned and developed in East Central Spokane, beginning as early as 1900….East Central Spokane is a term applied to a large residential and commercial area which is roughly bounded by Sprague Avenue to the north, Fourteenth Avenue to the south, Division Street to the west, and Havana Street to the east (the city limit). Numerous multiple-block subdivisions were platted within the large East Central area and were called ‘additions,’ such as Stadacona Park Addition indicated how public greenspace was used and it is now a part of Grant Park.” 1 In 1901 Stadacona Circle was given to the city of Spokane by Citizens National Bank and Fred B. and Ella Grinnell. Later it was known as Stadacona Park. In 1901 there were no homes yet built in this area. “In the ‘Report of the Board of Park Commissioners, 1891-1913,’ it was noted that Stadacona Circle was a nice little spot nicely planted with trees and shrubbery, making a small breathing spot for the neighborhood.…If the Park Commission in accepting this little park agreed to build and maintain the surrounding street, about 25 or 30 feet wide, it made, in our opinion, a bad bargain for the city. If there was no such agreement, what should be done would be best determined by conditions as to which we are not posted.

    Executive Summary This Report Is the First Step in Evaluating Source Water in the Cataraqui Source Protection Area (CSPA)

    Cataraqui Source Protection Area Watershed Characterization Report March 2008 Executive Summary This report is the first step in evaluating source water in the Cataraqui Source Protection Area (CSPA). It provides base information for the synthesis of a final assessment report which is the foundation of the source protection plan for the CSPA. The CSPA is located at the eastern end of Lake Ontario and the beginning of the St. Lawrence River. It includes a portion of the Bay of Quinte, Hay Bay, the southern half of the Rideau Canal and the Thousand Islands of the St. Lawrence River. It includes 11 municipalities within the Cataraqui Region Conservation Authority (CRCA) jurisdiction plus the municipality of Frontenac Islands (Howe and Wolfe Islands) and about 1,800 smaller islands in the St. Lawrence River (see Figure 1-2). The area is characterized by the exposed bedrock, lakes and woodlands of the Canadian Shield (Frontenac Axis) in the central part of the area, and the agricultural landscape of the limestone and clay plains to the south and east. Urban development is concentrated along the shoreline of Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River. Stakeholders and Partners The diversity of the local landscape is reflected in the range of interested stakeholders within our watersheds. Our stakeholders and partners include municipalities, federal and provincial government agencies, community groups, businesses, residents, and visitors. In addition to working closely with our municipalities, we also work with local health units and provincial and federal government agencies. A variety of community organizations and individuals representing agriculture, cottagers, industry, the environment and recreation help to round out our stakeholder organizations and represent the various interests in our area.
