Project #2017011A PIF Number:P371-0017-2017 Courtney Cameron (License Number P371) ORIGINAL REPORT March 2, 2018 Cameron Heritage Consulting Stage 1 Archaeological Assessment Pinnacle View Subdivision Development EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A Stage 1 Archaeological Assessment was completed under the scope of the Planning Act in preparation for the construction of a housing development in Renfrew, ON. The Proposed Development Area (PDA) is located within Lot 14 Concession 1, Horton Township (Geo.), Town of Renfrew, County of Renfrew, Ontario. The PDA is approximately 15 ha and is bounded on the southwest by an old rail bed, to the southeast and northeast by the backyards of houses along Aberdeen Street, Mason Avenue and McAndrew Ave, and to the northwest an agricultural field. The Stage 1 Archaeological Assessment included consultation with local heritage organizations, reviews of aerial imagery, archaeological potential maps, national topographic maps, physiographic maps and early maps of the area. In addition, information regarding known archaeological sites in the vicinity, land grants, and historical reference books for the PDA was reviewed. A site visit to assess archaeological potential was conducted November 29, 2017. Based upon the review of background material and the site visit, there are areas with and without potential for the presence of archaeological resources within the PDA. There is an existing storm sewer located within the PDA which extends from the former shopping centre lands through the PDA to the River. Construction of the storm sewer has disturbed a small portion of the PDA significantly and; therefore, this area does not retain archaeological potential and no further archaeological work is recommended. There is approximately 1 ha in the north that has about 1 m of fill. While archaeological potential may remain under the fill, the thickness of the fill makes it difficult to test, therefore, no further archaeological work is recommended for this area. The rest of the PDA retains potential for the presence of archaeological resources. It is recommended that these areas undergo Stage 2 Archaeological Assessment walkover prior to any construction activities. The Stage 1 Archaeological Assessment study was completed by Courtney Cameron M.A., (P371) Archaeologist with Cameron Heritage Consulting. PIF #P371-0017-2017 Cameron Heritage Consulting 2!

PROJECT CONTEXT 1.1.Objectives Projects that require an Archaeological Assessment in the province of Ontario start with a Stage 1 Background Study. The Standards and Guidelines for Consultant Archaeologists (MTCS, 2011) document outlines the purpose and requirements for conducting a Stage 1 Background Study. This study “documents the property’s archaeological and land use history and present condition” (MTCS 2011). The information used in this study is garnered from several sources. These sources can include, but are not limited to: • A review of the Ministry of Tourism Culture and Sport’s (MTCS) Archaeological sites database for archaeological sites that have been recorded within a one km radius of the Project Development Area (PDA). • A review of archaeological assessments that have taken place within a radius of 50 m of the PDA. • A review of historical maps, and of maps containing topographic, geological and other natural feature information • A review of the databases of historic places, commemorative plaques or monuments around the PDA. • A review of any available archaeological management plans, archaeological potential mapping or other archaeological documents of the general area. • A visual inspection of the PDA The information gathered will be used to determine the potential for the presence of archaeological resources within the PDA, and to develop recommendations based on the results. 1.2.Development Context The Bonnechere Development Corporation is proposing to construct a housing development on part of Lot 14 Con 1, Town of Renfrew Township of Horton (Geo.), County of Renfrew, ON (Figures 1, 2, and

  • 5.4 Pembroke Area History
    OTTAWA RIVER COMMUNITY HERITAGE 221 5.4 Pembroke Area History Pembroke Heritage Designation Sub‐Committee, led by Marian Patterson Geology Over one half million years ago, the country stretching from Fitzroy Township (known as the Upper Ottawa Valley) was covered by the sea. As the last ice age receded, a long, wide (and in some places, extremely deep) trench was left. The land exposed was rich in minerals, and is well known to mineral collectors. Minerals found in the region include corundum, hematite, magnetite, radioactive minerals, chalcopyrite, graphite, rose quartz, garnet, mica, molybdenote, galena, selenite, tourmaline, brucite, sphalerite, feldspar (including amazonite), apatite, fluorspar, nepheline, zircon, beryl, pyrite, tremolite and celestite. European settlers in the area quarried limestone, sandstone and feldspar. Many of the fine, older homes are made of locally quarried limestone. The closest lime kilns (for making mortar) were located on Allumette Island, just opposite Morrisonʹs Island. The bricks were made locally from the many deposits of clay found along the banks of the Muskrat, Indian and Ottawa Rivers. Pembrokeʹs City Hall is built from beautiful red sandstone that was quarried on Beckettʹs Island in the 1880s. These minerals were brought to the Pembroke area by boat. In the case of the feldspar, a short boat ride across Hazleyʹs Bay to the railroad spur was all that was needed. The Fur Trade In 1613 Champlain and his party paddled up the Ottawa River and traveled overland to the foot of Muskrat Lake. They paddled up the lake and walked across to the shore of Lower Allumette Lake, where they met Chief Tessoüat, who had a lookout at the foot of Morrisonʹs Island.

Background: The Muskrat Watershed Council (MWC) presented a report titled Muskrat Lake Watershed, 2014-2017 Water Quality, dated January 2019, prepared by Rebecca L. Dalton, Ph.D, on February 20, 2019. During their presentation, the MWC requested that Council reinstate the earth-berm in the Cobden Marsh. 1.0 Municipal Property The Cobden Marsh (the “marsh”) is located at: Civic Address 1 Astrolabe Road Roll No. 4758 0490 5006501 Legal Description Ross Con 2 W Pt Lot 7 RP;49R4083 Parts 1 2 Pt Rd All Owner Whitewater Region Township Size 49.13 ac. Figure 1 – 1 Astrolabe Road 2.0 Cobden Marsh Interpretive (Civitan) Trail The Cobden Marsh Interpretive Trail is located within the marsh. In 2008-09 the Civitan Club brushed along the existing berm to create a walking trail. The project engaged numerous stakeholders to get involved (i.e. MNRF, DFO, community groups, etc.). An 80m boardwalk was constructed between the south parking area and the south end of the berm, with a foot bridge installed over the Muskrat River. Portions of the berm were cleared and leveled. Several fjords, a shallow place in a river or stream that allows one to walk or drive across, were constructed in the berm to allow for spring run-off. The second phase was to brush, fill the breaches, level and top with crushed limestone, the circular part of the berm running east around the wetland, looping the trail.

  • Red River Valley Water Supply Project Class I Cultural Resources Inventory and Assessment, Eastern North Dakota and Nortwestern Minnesota
    RED RIVER VALLEY WATER SUPPLY PROJECT CLASS I CULTURAL RESOURCES INVENTORY AND ASSESSMENT, EASTERN NORTH DAKOTA AND NORTWESTERN MINNESOTA Michael A. Jackson, Dennis L. Toom, and Cynthia Kordecki December 2006 ABSTRACT In 2004-2006, personnel from Anthropology Research, Department of Anthropology, University of North Dakota, Grand Forks, conducted a Class I inventory (file search) for the Red River Valley Water Supply Project (RRVWSP). This work was carried out in cooperation with the USDI Bureau of Reclamation, Dakotas Area Office, Bismarck, ND. The file search dealt with hundreds of cultural resource sites across much of eastern North Dakota and northwestern Minnesota. Archeological sites, architectural sites, site leads, and isolated finds were examined for 14 North Dakota counties and four Minnesota counties. Five different action alternatives were investigated to determine the number and types of previously recorded cultural resources located within each. Each alternative was ranked in terms of its potential to cause impacts to cultural resources, both known and (presently) unknown. Analysis indicated that the Red River Basin Alternative (#3) has the largest potential for cultural resource site impacts. From a least-impact cultural resources perspective, the other four alternatives represent the best, least-impact options for construction of the RRVWSP. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter Page ABSTRACT ....................................................................................................................................................ii
