The very first SEP volunteer program, “Adopt‐a‐ Scientist”, began in 1995 when Imperial Oil retirees were asked if they would like to help in the classroom. Initially, volunteers could be “adopted” by teachers who would have them in on a regular basis, but it soon became evident that educators were asking for help repeatedly in the same subject areas. In response, volunteers created interactive, hands‐on presentations that could travel to from Superintendents Laura Callaghan and Ben Hazzard, along with SEP Technician Wendy Hooghiem, watch pie plates fly from a classroom to classroom.

Joseph Hobson, the Chief Engineer, successfully combined three significant new technologies—a tunnel shield driven by hydraulic rams; a cast iron tunnel lining; and the use of a compressed air environment. This tunnel eliminated a major bottleneck in the rail transportation system linking the American midwest with its eastern markets. Project Information; This documentation is the result of a Memorandum of Agreement, among the Michigan State Historic Preservation Office, the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, the Department of the Army, Corps of Engineers, Detroit District and the Canadian National North America Railroad as a mitigative measure before the closing of the tunnel.

  • Mayor and Members of Council From
    Municipality Of Chatham-Kent Infrastructure and Engineering Services Public Works To: Mayor and Members of Council From: Ryan Brown, P.Eng. Director of Public Works Gabriel Clarke, MES, BA Environmental Planner I Date: April 28, 2021 Subject: Amendments to Long Grass and Weeds By-Law 56-2020 Recommendations It is recommended that: 1. The attached by-law to regulate and prohibit long grasses and weeds be approved. 2. By-Law Number 56-2020, the former bylaw to regulate and prohibit long grasses and weeds be repealed. Background At the September 14, 2020 meeting, Council approved the following Motion: “Chatham-Kent’s Long Grass and Weed By-law (By-law # 56-2020) was introduced to implement a minimum outdoor landscaping maintenance standard that prohibits overgrown grasses and weeds on private properties. Similar to long grass by-laws in other communities, Chatham-Kent’s By-law maintains community aesthetics and prevents landscape abandonment. The by-law applies to all grass and weed species listed in the Government of Ontario’s Publication 505 ‘Ontario Weeds’ and requires that they be kept under 20cm in height through regular mowing, or be subject to enforcement. However, it is also a community strategic objective to enhance natural areas in the Municipality and there is a conflict that exists with the long grass by-law in meeting these objectives. Specifically, there are challenges that the current grass cutting by- law poses with respect to legitimate tall grass prairie environmental naturalization activities on private lands and despite the positive intent of the by-law, the way it is currently written can be used to reverse these environmental stewardship activities that the Municipality has otherwise identified as desirable.

I .. .d Sirs: As a result of expand.ing industrial and other activities along the international boundary of the United States and Canada, the Governments of both countries have been increasingly aware of the problem of air pollution affecting citizens and property interests on either side of the boundary. In particular, Governments have received representations that citizens and property in the vicinities of Detroit-Windsor and Port Huron-Sarnia are being subjected to detrimental quantities of air pollutants crossing the boundary. The problem of air pollution in the vicinity of the cities of Windsor and Detroit was the subject of a Joint Reference to the Commission dated January 12, 1949. The Commission was requested to report whether the air over, or in the vicinity of, Detroit and Windsor was being polluted by smoke, soot, fly ash or other impurities in quantities detrimental to the ..i public health, safety or general welfare of citizens 1 or property on either side of the boundary. In the event of an affirmative answer, the Commission was ..., i asked to indicate the extent to which vessels plying '1 I the waters of the Detroit River were contributing to this pollution and what other major factors were responsible and to what extent. m-F?.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository by an authorized administrator of Scholarship@Western. For more information, please contact [email protected]. i Abstract This thesis explores how the local population of Enniskillen, (including the towns of Oil Springs and Petrolia) Southwestern Ontario, reacted to the environmental consequences of oil development between1858 and 1885. The inception of Canadian’s oil industry in 1858 subsequently resulted in the contamination of the river systems, the pollution of the air, and the creation of new hazards in the region. The pollution led to water scarcity, the odour of oil permeating the air, and the threat of oil fires. In order to continue living in the oil region, the local population adapted, either by normalizing the new conditions of the environment or by trying to create solutions to mitigate the threats.
