  • Chapter 2 – Cataraqui Source Protection Area
    Cataraqui Source Protection Area Assessment Report (June 2011) Chapter 2 – Cataraqui Source Protection Area 2.0 Introduction This chapter provides the reader with an overall perspective on the watersheds, physical geography, human geography, and Great Lakes aspects of the Cataraqui Source Protection Area (CSPA). For additional detail on these topics, the reader is invited to review the Watershed Characterization Report: Cataraqui Source Protection Area (CRCA, 2008) in Appendix ‘L-2’. The Cataraqui Source Protection Area (CSPA) is located at the eastern end of Lake Ontario and the beginning of the St. Lawrence River (Map 1-1). It includes a portion of the Bay of Quinte, Hay Bay, the southern portion of the Rideau Canal and the Thousand Islands of the St. Lawrence River. The region includes approximately 1,000 kilometres of Great Lakes shoreline (Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River, including the islands) and about 200 inland lakes. It covers the jurisdiction of the Cataraqui Region Conservation Authority (CRCA), plus the municipality of Frontenac Islands (Howe and Wolfe Islands) and the waters up to the International Boundary between Canada and the United States of America (Map 1-2). The landscape of the CSPA is extremely varied. The central region is characterized by the exposed bedrock, lakes and woodlands of the Canadian Shield (Frontenac Axis), while the south and west consist mainly of the agricultural landscape of the limestone and clay plains (Map 2-1). In the east, the surficial geology is dominated by sand and gravel. The landscape is described in detail by Chapter 1 of the Watershed Characterization Report: Cataraqui Source Protection Area (CRCA, 2008) and it is illustrated by Figures 1-4 through 1-15 of that document.

    Stantec Consulting Ltd. 400 - 1331 Clyde Avenue, Ottawa ON K2C 3G4 September 30, 2019 File: 122170330 Attention: Ms. Barbara Slezak Senior Environmental Specialist, Environmental Services and Contaminated Sites Public Works and Government Services Canada 4900 Yonge Street Toronto ON M2N 6A6 Dear Ms. Slezak, Reference: Data Gap Analysis for Site 2 – Possible Road Access to NTA, Collins Bay Institute, Kingston, Ontario (ON) INTRODUCTION Stantec Consulting Ltd. (Stantec) was retained by Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC), on behalf of Correctional Services Canada (CSC), to complete a data gap analysis in support of future construction of a National Training Academy (NTA) at the Collins Bay Institute in Kingston, Ontario (ON). A parcel of land is being considered for construction of a possible access road to the NTA in the southwestern corner of the much larger Collins Bay Institute property, herein referred to as the Site. Figures 1 and 2, in Attachment A, present the location of the Site and relevant surrounding features. The requirements of the project are detailed in the Statement of Work for Data Gap Analysis at Collins Bay Institution (SOW), dated July 9, 2019, along with Stantec’s proposal, dated July 15, 2019. This report presents the findings of the Historical Report Review and Data Gap Analysis for the Site. BACKGROUND The Collins Bay Institute is located in Kingston, Ontario and is bordered by Bath Road (north), Days Road (west), Front Road (south) and Little Cataraqui Creek (east). The property comprises approximately 340 hectares (ha) and is shared between the Collins Bay Medium and Maximum Institution (formerly the Collins Bay and Frontenac Correctional Institution), and CORCAN Agribusiness Operations.

  • 3-1 3.0 Physical, Natural and Socio-Economic Environment
    Kingston Reinforcement Pipeline 3.0 PHYSICAL, NATURAL AND SOCIO-ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT 3.1 BEDROCK GEOLOGY The Frontenac Axis, which underlies the Kingston area is a south east-trending arch of Proterozoic crystalline basement, part of the Grenville Province of the Canadian Shield, that connects the Algonquin Dome with the Adirondack Dome in New York. To the northeast and southwest, respectively, it is flanked by Flat-lying to gently dipping Cambro-Ordovicain sediments of the St. Lawrence Platform and the Lake Ontario Homocline. It forms a resistant bedrock sill over which the St. Lawrence River flows northeastward from Lake Ontario, creating the “Thousand Islands” (Helmstaedt, 2004). Rocks typical of the area can be seen in outcrops and rock cuts along Highway 401. They predominantly consist of limestone and granite. 3.2 PHYSIOGRAPHY AND SURFICIAL GEOLOGY The study area lies within the physiographic regions of the Napanee Plain and Prince Edward Plain. The Precambrian Bedrock underlying the study area consists of clastic metasediments and intrusive igneous rocks. These basement rocks are overlain by a nearly horizontal sequence of Paleozioc sedimentary rocks which consist of the Potsdam Formation (sandstones and siltstones), Shadow Lake Formation (shales, sandstones, and arkoses), and the Gull River Formation (limestone and other carbonates) (Chapman and Putnam, 1984). Quaternary deposits (unconsolidated soil overburden) within the study area are Wisconsonian and recent in age and consist of glacial, glaciofluvial, glaciolacustrine, and postglacial sediments. The majority of the study area is underlain by exposed bedrock or a shallow soil cover generally less than 1 m thick overlying Paleozoic strata. The area consists of limestone and clay plains with shallow overburden made up of fine grained silt and clay sediments deposited during the glacial period over till soils and sedimentary bedrock (MTO 1990).

  • Rideau Canal Travel Information
    Rideau Canal Travel Information An elemental feat of engineering, Rideau Canal is treasured for recreational purpose and for traveling on a budget. Curling its way through the pictorial neighborhoods of Kingston to the historic suburbs of Ottawa, Rideau Canal exudes natural splendor and rich heritage. A paradise for paddlers, and voyageurs, the canal meanders gently through meadows, valleys, rivers, waterfalls, and lakes. Get your mojo back as you explore million dollar homes, quaint cottages, and swimming waterbirds in a peaceful bay. An elemental feat of engineering, this canal is treasured for recreational purpose and for traveling on a budget. History The Rideau Canal was built to strengthen the naval defense of Canada between 1826 and 1832 under the supervision of Lieutenant Colonel John By. It's name 'Rideau', which is a French word for "curtain", is derived from the curtain-like appearance of the Rideau Falls. The canal was designated as a National Historic Site of Canada in 1925, and received a status of a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2007. Things to Do in and around Rideau Canal Boating and Canoeing – As the morning sun of the shoulder season brings nature to life, you can silently glide across in a canoe or take a boat tour to the impressive Rideau Falls. Visitors can try mobile accommodations. In fact, renting a houseboat might just be the best way to enjoy your vacation. The entire corridor boasts of clean waters and excellent opportunities for swimming, fishing, kayaking, boating, and other adventures. Ice Skating and Snowshoeing – As the cold winds of winter blow and maple leaves descend upon the land, the Rideau region turns into a snowy wonderland.
