APPENDIX C Site Photographs iii May 3, 2019 1787556_PhaseOneESA_EMH_RevA 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Golder Associates Ltd. (“Golder”) was retained by the Region of Peel to conduct a Phase One Environmental Site Assessment (“Phase One ESA”) of a proposed sanitary trunk sewer manhole location 7, along Lakeshore Road West to the east of Tennyson Avenue. At the time of Golder’s Site reconnaissance on February 12, 2019 the Site consisted of an approximately 1.96 acre (0.79 hectare) parcel of land, currently undeveloped. The Phase One ESA study area included properties within 250 m of the Site. The Phase One ESA was intended to identify potential sources of soil or groundwater contamination that may affect the planned trunk sewer Manhole 7 location. The Phase One ESA was completed in accordance with Ontario Regulation (“O. Reg.”) 153/04 and included a review of available current and historical information on the Site and surrounding properties, a Site walkover, interviews, evaluation of readily available information, and reporting, subject to the limitations outlined in Section 9.0 of this report. The Phase One Property is not considered an enhanced investigation property as defined by O. Reg. 153/04. In addition, the assessment included a Site reconnaissance that included visual inspection of the Site and properties located in whole or in part within 250 metres (the Site). The Site reconnaissance was conducted after the desktop review and focused on the Site and those portions of the Phase One Study Area that were in proximity to the Site and that were identified as having the potential to contribute to soil or groundwater contamination. The following table summarizes the findings of the Phase One ESA. The Phase One ESA findings are based on evidence of actual and/or potential environmental impact, from both historical and current sources, and represent those potential environmental issues that may have the potential for a material environmental impact on the Site or on construction activities planned within the Site. Areas of potential environmental concern (“APECs”) along the Site include: APEC Description of Potential Source APEC 1: A service station was located at 1095 Lakeshore Road W, on the southwest corner of the intersection of Lakeshore Road West and Lorne Park Road. This location is Potential Source of approximately 195 m southwest of the Site. The EcoLog ERIS report listed this Contamination: Former property as being owned by Pioneer Petroleums Management Inc. as a full-service and Current Gas gasoline station, with three single-walled underground storage tanks (“USTs”) Station at 1095 installed in 1984. Lakeshore Road West. This off-Site property would be anticipated to be crossgradient to upgradient of the Site relative to the general direction of groundwater flow. Based on its orientation and proximity to the Site, the presence of a former gasoline station represents an issue of potential environmental concern for the Site and may

  • Heritage Guide of Mississauga 1
    Celebration Square, Civic Centre the City of Mississauga HERITAGE GUIDE MISSISSAUGA Pride in Our Past Mississauga can trace its roots back to before European settlement – over 200 years ago. In the early 1600s, French traders encountered Native people called the Mississaugas around the North Shore. The Mississaugas were an Ojibwa band, and by the early 1700s had migrated south and settled in the area around the Etobicoke Creek, Credit River and Burlington Bay. “Mississauga” translates as “River of the North of Many Mouths”, in reference to the North Shore of Lake Huron. Faith in Our Future The Town of Mississauga was created in 1968, and the City of Mississauga was incorporated in 1974 through the amalgamation of the Town of Mississauga, Villages of Port Credit and Streetsville, and portions of the townships of Toronto Gore and Trafalgar.

  • A Township in Ontario Is Usually Rectangular in Shape, Unless It Borders a Major River Or Lake. Townships Are Divided Into Concessions
    A township in Ontario is usually rectangular in shape, unless it borders a major river or lake. Townships are divided into concessions. Each concession is a strip of land 1 and 1/4 mile wide. Concessions can run in any direction and are usually separated by a road. Concessions are numbered with Roman Numerals (V, IV, etc). When concessions do not run the length or width of the township because of water, they are usually labelled with letters (A, B, etc). A gore is a part of a township that does not fit into the regular shape. Concessions are divided into lots that use Arabic numbers (3, 4, etc). Originally lots were 200 acres, which could then be easily divided into parcels of 100 acres. The lots ran parallel to the road. http://digital.library.mcgill.ca/countyatlas/ 1885 PEEL COUNTY, ONTARIO http://www.rootsweb.com/~canon/locator/1885peel.html MAP OF PEEL COUNTY, ONTARIO, CANADA: source: William Perkins Bull, From medicine man to medical man : a record of a century and a half of progress in health and sanitation as exemplified by developments in Peel , Toronto The Perkins Bull Foundation, George J.

By my graduation year of 1985 I had seen quite a number of Lorne Park Productions, like the remarkable rendition of ‘Anything Goes’. But anything never did go when it came to the one that stuck out in mind as a young boy; 1972’s production of ‘Auntie Mame’ remains, not just to me, but to many of those who fondly remember a Lorne Park triumph! I was only 7 when I saw Mame with my play-loving mother. Quickly forgetting the uncomfortable wooden straight-backed chairs, we were quickly held captive to the unfolding brilliance. The character of Dwight Babcock, played by Keith Nelson, had a boisterous voice that was loud and clear, perhaps too loud for my tender ears, but nevertheless powerful.
