Near North District School Board (NNDSB) is located in North East Ontario and encompasses the Districts of Nipissing and Parry Sound. The NNDSB currently operates 31 elementary schools, 7 secondary schools, an Adult and Continuing Education Centre as well as two Alternative Schools within its jurisdiction. Shifts in school-age population, escalating operating costs, prohibitive building renewal costs, aging buildings, and demands for relevant programming topped by changes to the capital funding model, have caused school boards to re-examine their long-term capital priorities. The Ministry of Education, through the School Board Efficiencies and Modernization Initiative-Consultation Summary (2014) has identified effective utilization of schools as an area of Capital Planning focus. Not unlike many other Boards in the Province, the NNDSB is experiencing declining enrolment. “The number of school aged children in Ontario has been decreasing in recent years, and enrolment is declining in 53 of 72 school boards.”1 In the NNDSB, the decline is slowing down in the elementary panel however; secondary facilities are now experiencing a sharper decline in student enrolment. Total enrolment for the 2015-2016 academic year was; 6,675 elementary students, with 3,529 secondary students, for a total number of 10,204 students in the Board. For the purpose of this Capital Plan, enrolment includes all students of the Board as well as First Nations students and tuition paying students attending the NNDSB schools. The NNDSB is an English language public school board that also provides, French Immersion and Extended French as well as First Nations programs in some elementary and secondary schools. Secondary Schools also offer a diverse range of Specialist High Skills Majors (SHSM) courses. In addition, the Board provides alternative, adult and community based programs. Due to declining enrolment, secondary schools throughout the board have found it increasingly difficult to continue offering the wide range of programming that had been offered in the past. A potential benefit of having larger schools with larger staffs is that more diverse programming could be offered to students. The Capital Plan provides background information regarding right-sizing our board, by comparing student spaces against projected enrolment data. Currently, the BoardDraft has 5,908 surplus spaces and the utilization rate is 64.2% based on the 2015-16 enrolment. Additionally, the Capital Plan will provide a picture of areas within the Board that are experiencing enrolment growth and decline. The Plan also includes enrolment projections, school renewal needs, school utilization, possible building consolidations and future recommendations for construction of new facilities and additions and/or renovations to existing facilities. Based on the data, the Capital Plan will, “forecast where new schools or additions may be needed; which schools will remain well utilized into the future; which open and operating schools may have unused space; and which schools may be candidates for consolidation or closure.”2 As part of the planning process, this information will also assist in identifying facilities that may be suitable for facility partnerships with respect to new construction and unused space in schools. Currently, the NNDSB operates 31 elementary schools. There are 3

  • Targeted Residential Fire Risk Reduction a Summary of At-Risk Aboriginal Areas in Canada
    Targeted Residential Fire Risk Reduction A Summary of At-Risk Aboriginal Areas in Canada Len Garis, Sarah Hughan, Paul Maxim, and Alex Tyakoff October 2016 Executive Summary Despite the steady reduction in rates of fire that have been witnessed in Canada in recent years, ongoing research has demonstrated that there continue to be striking inequalities in the way in which fire risk is distributed through society. It is well-established that residential dwelling fires are not distributed evenly through society, but that certain sectors in Canada experience disproportionate numbers of incidents. Oftentimes, it is the most vulnerable segments of society who face the greatest risk of fire and can least afford the personal and property damage it incurs. Fire risks are accentuated when property owners or occupiers fail to install and maintain fire and life safety devices such smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors in their homes. These life saving devices are proven to be highly effective, inexpensive to obtain and, in most cases, Canadian fire services will install them for free. A key component of driving down residential fire rates in Canadian cities, towns, hamlets and villages is the identification of communities where fire risk is greatest. Using the internationally recognized Home Safe methodology described in this study, the following Aboriginal and Non- Aboriginal communities in provinces and territories across Canada are determined to be at heightened risk of residential fire. These communities would benefit from a targeted smoke alarm give-away program and public education campaign to reduce the risk of residential fires and ensure the safety and well-being of all Canadian citizens.

  • Hydrological Characterization of the Sturgeon River.Pdf
    HYDROLOGICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF THE STURGEON RIVER WATERSHED IN NORTHEASTERN ONTARIO: A HYDROMETR IC AND WATER ISOTOPE ANALYSIS (Thesis Format: Manuscript) BY NANCY ENGLAND GRADUATE PROGRAM IN ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES SCHOOL OF GRADUATE STUDIES NIPISSING UNIVERSITY NORTH BAY, ONTARIO APRIL, 2017 © NANCY ENGLAND, 2017 Abstract The Sturgeon River is a large watershed (~7000 km 2) located in northeastern Ontario and is a major headwater system of Lake Nipissi ng. River flow and lake levels are managed to balance a variety of environmenta l, social, and economic factors, as well as for the production of hydroelectric power, as described by the St urgeon River Water Management Plan. The objectives of the study were to compare the infl uence of the controlled (e.g. Lake Temagami) and uncontrolled subcatchments on resultant flow downstream; review 1979 (flood), 2010 (drought), and 2013 (contemporary year with wa ter isotope sampling) in the context of hydrologic history; and, explor e relationships between hydrol ogic characteristics and water isotope analysis during 2013, and recommend how information gained from water isotope tracers may improve future operation of the watershed. The historical hydrologic anal ysis involved the comparison of reservoir drawdowns, annual hydrographs, monthly boxplots, flood frequencies, and flow durati on curves, for river flow and dam outflow data at six different sites across the watershed. A calcu lated inflow data set was also prepared and the same metrics were compare d, to determine the relative influence of 3 hydroelectric reservoirs. In addition, the flow and meteorological conditions of two hydrologically significant spring freshets, the 1979 flood and drought of 2010, were compared to the study year (2013).
