Executive Summary Exp Services Inc. (exp) was retained by Mr. John Spina c/o The Manors of Belfountain Corporation (the Client) to complete a Phase One Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) of the undeveloped property designated as Part of Lot 9, Concession 5 West of Hurontario Street (W.H.S.), being PIN 14267 – 0047 and Part of PIN 14267 - 0114, Belfountain, Town of Caledon, Ontario, hereinafter referred to as the 'Site' The objective of the investigation was to identify areas of potential environmental concerns on the Phase One Property in accordance with Ontario Regulation 153/04 (as amended by Regulation 511/09). A Phase One ESA is a systematic qualitative process to assess the environmental condition of a site based on its historical and current uses. This Phase One ESA was conducted in accordance with the Phase One ESA standard as defined by Ontario Regulation 153/04, as amended by Ontario Regulation 511/09 (O.Reg. 153/04), and in accordance with generally accepted professional practices. Subject to this standard of care, exp makes no express or implied warranties regarding its services and no third party beneficiaries are intended. Limitation of liability, scope of report and third party reliance are outlined in Appendix A. The Site occupies an area between Mississauga Road and Shaws Creek Road, approximately 320 m south of Bush Street, in Belfountain, Ontario, as shown on Figure 1. The Site is irregular in shape and occupies an area of approximately 70.3 hectares (~174 acres). The Site is currently undeveloped, consisting of a series of twelve (12) farm fields and a wooded area at the east end. The Site encompasses an area of rolling terrain with a relief of approximately 23 m. At the time of this investigation, the Site was vacant and undeveloped land parcel, under agricultural land use. An old silo and remnants of former building structure (likely a house or barn) exist in the northeastern portion of the Site. It is understood that a residential subdivision is being proposed for the Site. Based on the Phase One ESA findings, potential environmental concerns associated with the Site are summarized in the following table: Relative Area Potential Potential Degree of Environmental Contaminants Media Comments Environmental Concern (APEC) of Concern Risk Site No APEC Identified on the Phase One Property 1595 Clark Boulevard, Brampton, ON L6T 4V1, Canada T: +1.905.793.7800 www.exp.com EXEC - I The Manors of Belfountain Corporation Phase One Environmental Site Assessment Part Lot 9, Concession 5 W.H.S., Belfountain, Caledon, Ontario BRM-00603505-D0 Based on the Phase One ESA findings, and conclusions reached, a Phase Two ESA (i.e. sampling and analysis) is not required before a Record of Site Condition can be submitted to all of the Phase One Property. Several wells (monitoring wells/exploration wells/ possible former potable water supply well) are present on the Phase One Property. Once no longer required, all wells must be decommissioned by a licensed well driller prior to development. Also, any surficial debris associated with the remnants of former building structures within the northeastern portion of the Site should be removed. This executive summary is a brief synopsis of the report and should not be read in lieu of reading the report in its entirety. 1595 Clark Boulevard, Brampton, ON L6T 4V1, Canada T: +1.905.793.7800 www.exp.com EXEC - II The Manors of Belfountain Corporation Phase One Environmental Site Assessment Part Lot 9, Concession 5 W.H.S., Belfountain, Caledon, Ontario BRM-00603505-D0 Table of Contents Legal Notification ......................................................................................................

  • Elevating and Amusement Devices Safety Division DIRECTOR's ORDER
    Elevating and Amusement Devices Ref. No.: Rev. No.: Safety Division 169 / 02 2 Date: Date: DIRECTOR’S ORDER February 14, 2002 April 18, 2007 IN THE MATTER OF: THE TECHNICAL STANDARDS AND SAFETY ACT 2000, S.O. 2000, c. 16 - and - ONTARIO REGULATION 209/01 (Elevating Devices) made under the Technical Standards and Safety Act 2000 Subject: Initial Phase - Periodic Engineering Review and Assessment of Above-surface Passenger Ropeways – (Aging Ski Lifts) Sent to: All Passenger Ropeway Contractors and Consultants For Above-Surface Passenger Ropeways made in 1992 and Earlier. For Above-Surface Passenger Ropeways made after 1992 , see Director’s Order 224/07. 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 General The Elevating Devices Regulation made under the Technical Standards and Safety Act (TSS Act) adopts the Elevating Devices Code Adoption Document (CAD). This bulletin is prepared in keeping with the Section 24 of the CAD that reads: “Every above-surface passenger ropeway shall be subjected periodically to a complete engineering review and assessment to ensure its continued operational safety in accordance with guidelines set by the director.” Section 24 of the CAD is intended to deal with the impact on the safety of above-surface passenger ropeway as a result of its age. Even though a ropeway is maintained to keep up with its original or current design/manufacturing specification during its life, over the period of time the following elements will still weaken parts of the ropeway that can fail accidentally: ➢ Fatigue and vibration of both moving components and fixed structures causing cracks and fractures of connections and parent metal; and ➢ Environmental factors like snow, ice, rain, temperature, humidity, and dust causing corrosion and deterioration of structural, mechanical and electrical components.
