Larry Armfelt, Reeve 3602-48 Avenue Athabasca, AB T9S 1M8 Email: [email protected]
Dear Reeve Larry Armfelt,
Re: Letter to Shannon Stubbs
I hope this letter finds you well.
In a recent conversation with Shannon Stubbs, MP for Lakeland, the issue of the Federal Gas Tax Fund (FGTF) was raised. The County of Minburn requested MP Stubbs to promote in Parliament the idea of doubling this fund’s annual allocation to municipalities, like what occurred in 2019, as a method to spur private sector job growth and improve vital public infrastructure. She seemed receptive to this request and asked that a letter be sent to her by the County outlining our request and the reasons for it.
This letter I write to you is to respectfully ask that your Council consider submitting a similar letter to MP Stubbs. While we are all concerned about the rising level of public sector spending, our County also believes that investment in infrastructure is a necessary path to ensuring the revival of private industry in rural Alberta, and the FGTF is a proven and accountable vehicle for such dollars to flow.
Thank you for your consideration and all the best.
Sincerely,
ny Reeve c: Lakeland Riding Reeves and Mayors

Administrative Report

To: County Council
Date: June 9, 2020
Subject: Land Use Bylaw Amendment - Bylaw 016-2020 NW-10-72-17-W4 From Agriculture (A) District to Recreational Commercial (C4) District
1. Background On May 26, 2020, an application to amend the Land Use Bylaw was received proposing a zoning change from the current Agriculture (A) District to Recreational Commercial (C4) District for NW-10-72-17-W4. This full quarter section contains 158.97 acres in size. The campground has been developed in the treed area of the quarter section, offering buffering from Range Road 173.
Currently the owners have an approved 30 stall RV campground (2015-D0208). The owners would like to add a security suite and worker housing as an accessory use to the RV campground. There are no listed uses for campgrounds in the Agriculture (A) District so they would need to re-district their property to pursue the security suite and worker housing as an accessory to their campground.
This property is located northwest of the Hamlet of Wandering River. This campground has been in operation since 2015.
2. Discussion In order for the development to be considered, the Land Use Bylaw will need to be amended. This proposed amendment of the Land Use Bylaw for NW-10-72-17-W4 would change the district from Agriculture (A) District to Recreational Commercial (C4) District.
The general purpose of the Recreational Commercial (C4) District is to provide for specific areas where tourism and recreation may take place within the County. The development would fit with the purpose of the district.

Administrative Report
From: Shirley Moerman, Director of Planning
To: County Council
Date: June 9, 2020
Subject: Bylaw 017-2020 Lot Consolidation - Plan 7721040; Block 3; Lots 72 and 73
1. Background This lot consolidation is for Plan 7721040; Block 3; Lots 72 and 73 within Mystic Meadows. Consolidation is needed for the future development that will cross the boundary of lot 72 and 73.
Lot 72 Lot73 Zoning Countrv Residential District Country Residential District Size 21,450 SQ. ft. 20,752 sq. ft Development Garaqe Vacant
The lot consolidation meets with the intention of the Land Use District uses and size.
In discussion with the landowner, administration provided options for lot consolidation.
There are three different options to do a lot consolidation: A. Form A directly through Alberta Land Titles; B. By Bylaw through the County and registered through Alberta Land Titles; C. By descriptive plan through a surveyor and registered through Alberta Land Titles.
If a landowner proceeds with option A a consolidation of Lines occurs. This puts the two lots on one title, however they are still two separate titles as far as Land Titles is concerned, these Lines could be separated without subdivision authority. If development occurs and separation happens without subdivision authority, encroachments could result.
2. Discussion Administration recommended proceeding with option A, not aware of the ability to separate without subdivision authority approval. As the future development will straddle across both lots, the option for consolidation should have been by bylaw which would ensure that the intended development would not create an encroachment should the lots ever be separated. As this was an administration error, it is recommended that the Lot Consolidation fee be waived and that all three readings of the consolidation bylaw proceed.

Frac Sand Mining Project, that includes a processing facility and extraction pits, being proposed at the following locations: • NE2-66-22-4 • S1/2 2-66-22-4 • 35-65-22-4 • NW26-65-22-4 I am in favor of responsible and appropriate development within the county of Athabasca. However, I believe this project is not responsible or appropriate in the proposed location due to its associated risks to the health, wellbeing and quality of life for the numerous residents that live in that area. The proposed location is adjacent to Athabasca County’s largest Country Residential area and located just 2 km southeast of the Town of Athabasca. Not only are there close to 90 homes within a 1.6 kilometre radius of the proposed project, there are almost 50 homes directly adjacent to the proposed development, including two subdivisions. This corresponds to close to 50 household wells within a one kilometer radius of the project site. My concerns with the proposed project in such a populated area center around: • Air Quality impacts from silica dust, a known cause of silicosis and lung cancer among other chronic and acute health conditions. • Groundwater contamination due to chemical flocculants used as part of the water recycling process, potential chemical usage to control dust, exposure of the water table, wastewater, and mine dewatering. • Groundwater use and/or excavating and related operations extending below the water table that will disrupt the water table and put the water volume for the numerous household wells in the area at risk. • Noise & other nuisances such as dust, light pollution, and aesthetic impact that will negatively affect quality of life within the Country Residential Zone and for the many other neighboring residents. Particularly since AMI has indicated they will operate 24/7. • Reduced property values in the area. • Increased industrial traffic in a populated area. I have recently built just off of Tower Road in close proximity of the proposed area. It is beautiful, peaceful, and has an abundance of wild life. These are the reasons we want to live here. If this project goes though the Beauty will no longer be there, the noise will ring up and down the valley and the wild life and the people will not want to be in the area any longer. Our health, our quality of life, our peace of mind, and our property values will all be put at risk if this proposal is allowed. I am all about development and I have made my living from it but there are somethings you do not do and putting this in this spot is just not smart no matter how you look at it. Due to the aforementioned significant health and environmental risks that accompany frac sand mining, this type of resource extraction should be considered different than gravel or sand extraction projects. It is my opinion that provincial laws and associated application approvals have not kept up with the reality of these risks. Established facilities in Alberta with experience in this industry have, consequently, been unable to prevent negative impacts to nearby residents even though they have typically only been approved in remote or sparsely populated areas. I understand the Province has jurisdiction over environmental requirements, however it is the County of Athabasca that is the authority over municipal planning and determining whether development is suitable for the area proposed. I urge the Municipal Planning Commission and the County of Athabasca to deny the AMI Frac Page 42 of 95 AGENDA ITEM # 10.1 Sand Mining Project’s development permit in the proposed location due to its incompatibility with the adjacent residential land uses. Sincerely, Andy Carmody Page 43 of 95 AGENDA ITEM # 10.2 May 25, 2020 Reeve Armfelt and Council Members Athabasca County 3602 – 48 Avenue Athabasca, AB T9S 1M8 Dear Reeve Armfelt and Council; I hope this letter finds your Council and residents well and staying safe during this time of uncertainty. Let us all continue to work together towards a brighter tomorrow. This letter is to provide your council with an update and thank you for your steadfast devotion to STARS. Like all essential healthcare providers, STARS does not have the option of putting things on hold until life returns to normal, whatever that will mean in the months ahead. The reality is, STARS has experienced a substantial increase in the volume of calls since the COVID-19 crisis erupted. Across all six bases in Western Canada, we have seen as high as, 650 calls within one week. Since the outbreak, even though the economy has come to a halt and many continue to be at a stand-still, our crews are not among those, indicating the need for continued critical care response, despite the circumstances. STARS air medical crews have responded to numerous COVID-related cases, in addition to daily demands of medical distress like heart attack, stroke, and trauma. STARS Transport Physicians and air medical crew continue to provide assistance to rural healthcare providers for best critical care practices, which in turn, has helped to ease the possible overwhelming of tertiary care centres during the pandemic and of course, STARS continues to fly an average of 8 missions daily to aid the communities and rural residents that we proudly serve. For many, the pandemic has brought on countless hardships, financial and other stresses and it has had an adverse effect on STARS as well. We too have suffered through downsizing staff members and although the requests for STARS has increased, our ability to fundraise 80% of the operational funding required, has dramatically decreased. This is coupled by the inability to host most of our fundraising events i.e. golf tournaments, galas and community events, for the unforeseeable future. It is in times like these, when we must rely on our steadfast community partners, now more than ever. Life still happens and STARS will respond. Page 44 of 95 AGENDA ITEM # 10.2 STARS truly values the life-saving partnership that we share with Athabasca County and ask for your continued commitment to STARS. Through your annual contributions, you continue to be a vital part of the STARS Municipal Initiative Program that validates the extraordinary efforts of Alberta’s municipalities, to preserve that the highest level of critical care services will continue to be available to Albertans. We cannot do it alone. It is my privilege to work with your council and I hope to see each of you again soon. Of course, bringing an annual update in-person, is always my preference yet, current circumstances call for additional options to be made available. If your council is interested, I could host an online update presentation through one of the following platforms: Microsoft Teams, Zoom or Skype for Business or if your Council doesn’t mind waiting, I will continue to send periodic updates by email, and look forward to seeing you all in the coming months. Together, we will continue to fight for life.

With over 110 concrete plants and two cement plants in Alberta, our industry has a significant local presence in virtually all Alberta communities. Our industry is founded on local jobs, using local sand, gravel, and water in addition to Alberta produced cement, to produce sustainable, long-lasting concrete building materials. We are a critical part of the local economic structure, supporting up to 34,000 direct and indirect jobs across the province. In these difficult times, it is vital that all levels of government continue to stimulate local economic activity by proceeding with infrastructure projects that will get local construction businesses back in operation and employees back to work. More than ever, shovel-ready and shovel-worthy projects and simplified procurement and tendering processes will be of immediate advantage in stimulating your local construction activity and economic supply-chain channels. Concrete plays an essential role in ensuring the infrastructure you build on behalf of your residents will serve your community now and for generations to follow, manufactured in an environmentally responsible manner using materials such as lower carbon cements. Concrete is resilient in the harshest of conditions; strong enough to resist impacts, strong winds, blasts and natural catastrophes like earthquakes, tornadoes and floods (concrete does not swell, warp or rot when wet). Concrete is durable in all environments, maintaining a finish resistant to damage from direct exposure to fire, rain, hail, UV rays, airborne pollutants and other persistent weathering conditions. A road made of concrete provides the potential for cost savings when lifecycle costs are considered, and almost always provides significant savings on maintenance costs. • Over a 50-year period, a concrete road requires only a third of the maintenance of an asphalt road. • Concrete pavements require significantly less energy and base material (stone, sand and gravel) than asphalt pavements. • Concrete’s light colour and natural reflectance brightens roads, parking areas and sidewalks, reducing exterior lighting requirements at night by up to 24%. • Concrete pavement keeps communities cooler by reducing the urban heat island effect. Page 48 of 95 AGENDA ITEM # 10.4 As all levels of government move forward with economic recovery plans in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and you begin to make decisions on stimulus funding for strategic capital investments, the concrete and cement industry in Alberta encourages you to ensure that concrete is strongly considered as the building material of choice. Specifically, for roads and pavements, we ask that you consider concrete as an alternative to asphalt. Alberta Transportation has recently confirmed concrete as a potential alternative paving material for roundabouts and other slow-moving, heavy-traffic applications (turning lanes, intersections, etc.). We ask that municipalities do the same and consider concrete pavement as long-lasting solution to your pavement projects. There are numerous success stories of concrete pavements in communities across Alberta, Canada and the United States. Attached are only a few of those examples. Our industry is available to you as a resource for any questions you may have regarding this approach. It is important that we highlight how our industry has implemented extraordinary measures to support your efforts and those of local health authorities to stop the spread of COVID-19. Our new health and safety protocols are designed to protect our employees, our construction colleagues and the communities in which they operate. We are committed to working with you and our provincial and federal partners to stimulate local economic activity and your municipality’s shovel-ready infrastructure projects. Please contact Concrete Alberta at [email protected] or (780) 436-5645 at your earliest convenience so that we can discuss how we can best work through this unprecedented crisis and economic recovery together.

Subsequently alternate tenders, which include maintenance and rehabilitation schedules, have allowed contractors to respond with concrete or asphalt bids. The SW Anthony Henday Drive Tender in Edmonton was issued using these guidelines, and when the tender was awarded, the concrete bid was the lowest. This new Tender approach became one of the inaugural winners of the ‘Ministers Award for Excellence in Process Innovation’ competition, which began in 2005. Anthony Henday Drive is part of Edmonton’s ring road network that provides Edmonton drivers with an efficient way to move around the City. When completed in 2006, the concrete roadway was the longest in Western Canada at approximately 14.4 kilometers in length. What also makes this roadway distinctive is the use of longitudinal tining, which is a first not only for the West but for Canada. Tining is a process whereby small grooves are made in the pavement surface. Many concrete roadways use transverse tining in which the grooves run across the roadway in a shoulder-to-shoulder direction. On the Henday roadway, longitudinal tining has been substituted so that the tining will run in the same direction as the traffic flow. Tests have shown that longitudinal tining actually makes the roadway quieter. . Divided highway of 14.4 kilometers. . 230 mm concrete pavement over a 150 mm granular base course. .

Braking and turning by a high volume of heavy truck traffic caused severe, constantly recurring asphalt rutting at two intersections. Alberta Transportation sought a durable pavement solution with extended service life and less frequent resurfacing. Full-depth concrete pavement has worked very well in other locations in Alberta that carry heavy vehicle loads, and Knelsen Rock Products GP Ltd. 2008 Construction assembled a project team (EBA Engineering Consultants Ltd., Proform Concrete Services Inc.) to replace the rutted asphalt with concrete. . Existing asphalt concrete pavement (ACP) was milled off four left turn lanes at two different intersections, a total of about 2050 sq m. . Enough base material was removed to accommodate the proposed portland cement concrete (PCC) pavement. . Where there was PCC under the ACP, it was completely removed as well, and where required, additional base material was brought in to maintain grade. . Concrete was poured in sections to a nominal thickness of 240 mm; no edge thickening was required. . All longitudinal and transverse joints were saw-cut and hot-sealed over backing rod. AGENDA ITEM#10.4 . Transverse joints were made at 4.5 m intervals with wired dowel baskets, using 32 mm x 450 mm 2019 epoxy coated smooth steel dowels at 300 mm o/c.

It passes through The City of Lloydminster and is a key component to the growth of the area’s heavy oil and oilsands industries. Increased heavy truck traffic has led to severe rutting at four signal-controlled intersections along this corridor. This was typically dealt with by milling and inlaying or rut filling with standard asphalt mixes. In Lloydminster, this would last only two to four years. The City of Lloydminster wanted to find a durable pavement solution with minimized maintenance and extended service life. Similar problem areas in Edmonton, Medicine Hat and Grande Prairie have shown concrete pavement to be a suitable solution for heavy truck and high traffic intersections. Using a slip-form paver, full depth concrete was placed at four intersections extending 100 meters or more at two side by side lanes. Construction of the new concrete pavement was completed while traffic was easily rerouted around the intersection. . Four Hwy 16 intersections at 52 Ave, 54 Ave, 70 Ave, and 75 Ave .

Alberta Transportation has undertaken frequent repairs to this section of road which historically has lasted between one and two years. Alberta Transportation was very interested in having a durable, long-term solution to the rutting issues experienced at this intersection. After consultation with the Cement Association of Canada and Concrete Alberta, a concrete overlay was chosen to solve the rutting problems for this intersection. The concrete construction was completed over a two day span while traffic was easily rerouted around the construction. . Two turning lanes, 40 m in length and 3.7 m wide. . Average of 125 mm asphalt thickness left under the concrete inlays. . The asphalt was removed to an average depth of 100 mm on the inside lane and 125 mm on the outside (the heavy . truck traffic) lane. . Concrete was hand-placed one lane at a time. . Joints were saw cut at 1.5 m. . Minimum Compressive Strength: 20 MPa at 3-days and 30 MPa at 28-days. AGENDA ITEM#10.4 . Synthetic Structural Fiber was utilized (no dowels or tie bars were used).

In the past, milling and filling the intersection approaches proved unsuccessful in combating the rutting problem rutting would return within months of the work taking place. According to Hugh Donovan, P.Eng., Construction Services Engineer with the City of Edmonton, a bonded concrete overlay “was chosen because traffic volumes coming into this intersection are some of the highest recorded within the City of Edmonton”. . Compressive strength 20 MPa in 24 hours and April 2015 35 MPa at 28 days. . Polypropylene structural fibres utilized. . Joints sawcut in 1.8 m square panels.

The City of Red Deer wanted to find a durable pavement solution with minimized maintenance and extended service life, therefore in their Request for Proposal (RFP) allowed Portland Cement Concrete Paving to complete with asphalt through a Life Cycle Cost Analysis basis giving the opportunity for both materials to be compared at an equal level. Portland Cement Concrete Paving with a 40+ year expected service life was selected for this project. . Traffic volumes: Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT) through the job site were estimated at 22720 vehicles; peak hour at 10%. . PCCP designed to 240mm thickness reinforced with Euclid Tuf-strand SF Macro Synthetic Fibers at 1.8 kg/m3. . PCCP was supplemented with dowel baskets made with 32mm smooth epoxy coated dowels spaced at 305mm on centre under all joints. Dowels were extended into adjacent curb and gutter structures. . Curb and gutter structures were increased in thickness to match the PCCP structure to eliminate a need for pavement edge thickening. . The concrete for the PCCP was designed to achieve a minimum flexural strength of 4.2 MPa at 28 days. AGENDA ITEM#10.4 . The colored truck apron at the traffic circle was designed to match the PCCP structure.

The braking and turning action of heavy vehicles at this controlled intersection caused severe rutting in the existing asphalt pavement. The frequency of asphalt resurfacings led to a search for a more permanent solution to ensure that vehicles would not continue to damage the pavement surface. The goal was to break the cycle of ongoing maintenance and to keep the roadway open on an extended basis. The owner was interested in having a durable long-term solution to recurring asphalt rutting problems at this intersection. Previous experience with full-depth concrete pavement at other locations had demonstrated that concrete pavement does not rut or deform under heavy vehicle loading. Using concrete pavement provided the benefits the owner required. Construction of the new concrete pavement was completed while traffic was easily rerouted around the intersection. April 2015 . Existing asphalt thickness was 130-160 mm over 300 mm of granular base. Two through lanes, 145 m east bound lane, 100 m west bound lane. . Average concrete thickness 230 mm, edge thickened at transition between concrete pavement and adjoining asphalt pavement. . Minimum Compressive Strength 32 MPa at 28 days. 2018 AGENDA ITEM#10.4 . Tie bars 15M epoxy coated used between concrete panels.
