Laroche Park - Renewal Project - 25 July 2018 Parc Laroche - projet de renouvellement - 25 juillet 2018 Environmental Risk Management Plan for Park Improvements

Laroche Park - Renewal Project - 25 July 2018 Parc Laroche - projet de renouvellement - 25 juillet 2018 Previous Investigations

• The southeast portion of the park was identified as a historic landfill site in the 2004 Old Landfill Management Strategy report, Phase 1 – Identification of Sites • Landfilling activities were reportedly limited to the location of the old septic tank which was infilled between 1928 and 1932 • An investigation completed in the southeast portion of the site in 2005 did not identify any immediate concerns related to the old landfill Laroche Park - 1927

Laroche Park - Renewal Project - 25 July 2018 Parc Laroche - projet de renouvellement - 25 juillet 2018 Recent Investigations

• To support potential redevelopment of the park, a site-wide environmental assessment was completed in 2014-15. The results indicated that waste fill was present across the entire park. • Additional historical research indicated that the “Stonehurst Ave Dump” operated during the 1910s to 1923 and likely infilled the former Cave Creek • Waste material contains ash, cinders, glass, metal, brick and porcelain. • Samples from the playground sand and shallow soil in the north half of the site met provincial standards for parkland use; underlying waste fill exceeds for various metals and PAHs

Laroche Park - Renewal Project - 25 July 2018 Parc Laroche - projet de renouvellement - 25 juillet 2018 Recommendations

• The City is planning to implement a risk management program to isolate the underlying impacted fill across the park • Designed to prevent direct contact with the underlying fill using an approach referred to as ‘soil capping’. Involves placement of 0.5 m of clean imported soil placed over a geotextile fabric. • City will retain an environmental consultant to be on-site for the duration of the soil excavation and capping portion of the project. • A dust control plan and traffic management plan will be developed. • Site will be routinely inspected following completion to ensure integrity of soil cap.
