March 2015 Long Term Maintenance and Monitoring Plan 210.05479.000000 1.0 INTRODUCTION This Long Term Maintenance and Monitoring Plan (LTMM) provides guidance for the long-term Maintenance and Monitoring of the former Tar Ponds and Coke Ovens sites located in Sydney, Nova Scotia. Implementation of the plan will follow the completion for the Sydney Tar Ponds and Coke Ovens Remediation Project that began in fall 2006 and was completed in summer 2013. The majority of work proposed under the future land use plan, was completed by September 2013 and the remaining work will be completed in spring 2014. A fully integrated iron and steel plant was established in Sydney, Nova Scotia in 1899 and operated for approximately 90 years, at which time it was converted to a “mini mill” based on electric arc furnace technology. The steel plant ceased operations in 2000. The coke ovens operations were operational between 1901 and 1988 and provided coke for the steel manufacturing, producing by-products such as coal, tar and benzene that were used for manufacturing industrial products. Historic use of the site and waste management practices (i.e. storage of tar in tanks and lagoons, disposal of wastewater to brooks and nearby estuary, backfilling/land reclamation practices) resulted in significant impacts to soil, groundwater, and sediment in Muggah Creek (the “Tar Ponds”). During the 20th century, approximately 60% of Muggah Creek and a portion of Sydney Harbour were

Many people only read or hear about isolated aspects of these implications. Media stories often provide only a ‘window’ of information on one specific event and detailed reports commonly center around one particular facet. This paper brings together major points from a vast selection of reports, studies and research papers, books, documentaries, articles, and fact sheets relating to the Alberta Oil Sands. It is not inclusive. The objective of this document is to present sufficient information on the primary factors and repercussions involved with Oil Sands production and export so as to provide the reader with an overall picture of the scope and implications of Oil Sands current production and potential future development, without perusing vast volumes of publications. The content presents both basic facts, and those that would supplement a general knowledge base of the Oil Sands and this document can be utilized wholly or in part, to gain or complement a perspective of one or more particular aspect(s) associated with the Oil Sands. The substantial range of Oil Sands- related topics is covered in brevity in the summary. This paper discusses environmental, resource, and health concerns, reclamation, viable alternatives, crude oil pipelines, and carbon capture and storage.

All parliamentary publications are available on the ``Parliamentary Internet Parlementaire'' at the following address: http://www.parl.gc.ca 6475 HOUSE OF COMMONS Monday, May 8, 2000 The House met at 11 a.m. The organization found that many people, not just in the downtown eastside but in other neighbourhoods in Vancouver and _______________ on the lower mainland, desperately needed access to phone service. As a result of providing this service over the last couple of years, about 1,200 people are now registered. The use of the service is Prayers increasing on a daily basis. _______________ The statistics provided to me by the organization are quite interesting. They show that approximately 79% of the users of this service are single men and that 60% of the users have annual PRIVATE MEMBERS’ BUSINESS incomes of less than $8,000. I would ask anyone in the House to imagine what it would be like to live on less than $8,000. It would mean no money for bus fare, no money for a phone and no money D (1110) for the basic necessities of life. It basically would mean scraping by and surviving day by day.

    Comments on “Remediation of Sydney Tar Ponds and Coke Ovens Sites Environmental Impact Statement, Sydney, Nova Scotia” Dated December 2005 Comments submitted by G. Fred Lee, PhD, PE, DEE G. Fred Lee & Associates, El Macero, California Email: [email protected] Website: www.gfredlee.com May 15, 2006 The Sierra Club Cape Breton Group has requested that I conduct a critical review of the adequacy of the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the proposed remediation of the Sydney Tar Ponds contaminated sediments and Coke Ovens Site contaminated soils in providing reliable information on the potential impacts and benefits of the Sydney Tarp Ponds Agency’s (STPA’s) proposed remediation project. My review focuses on the adequacy of the remediation approach in protecting public health and the environment from the residual pollutants in the “remediated” sediments for as long as they represent a threat. Overall Assessment Overall, I find that the Sydney Tar Ponds Agency’s EIS for the proposed remediation of the contaminated sediments is highly deficient in providing the information that the governmental agencies and the public need to understand about the potential problems and benefits of the Agency’s proposed approach of in situ mixing of cement or other materials with the contaminated sediments in preventing further pollution of surface and ground waters in the region and Estuary by the residual pollutants that will be present in the so-called “remediated” sediments. The Agency has failed to properly evaluate the potential for cement-based solidification/stabilization (S/S) to prevent continued release of pollutants such as PCBs, etc., that are a threat to public health and the environment.

  • ENVIRONMENTAL CLEANUPS: WHO PAYS? Introduction
    ENVIRONMENTAL CLEANUPS: WHO PAYS? Introduction In recent years, Canadians have been troubled to learn that what is probably the world's largest toxic waste dump is sitting in the city of Sydney, on Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, one of the most scenic parts of the country. This huge site of industrial waste, known to local residents as the Sydney Tar Ponds, but also referred to as "poison city" or "the monster," is the result of a century of iron and steel manufacturing in the region. The area contains huge amounts of toxic sludge, much of it heavily contaminated with cancer-causing chemical agents and other substances that are hazardous to the health of plants, animals, and human beings. To make matters worse, the ponds are really a tidal estuary that sends toxic products into the Atlantic Ocean with every daily cycle of the tides, poisoning all nearby marine life and making fishing impossible. To provide some perspective on the enormousness of this environmental disaster, the Sierra Club of Canada has estimated that the amount of poisonous material contained in the Tar Ponds is probably over 35 times the total amount of toxic sludge that was found in the infamous Love Canal in Niagara Falls, New York. The Love Canal is the most widely known ecological horror story of the 1970s. For over a century, the industrial wastes produced by the refining of iron ore into iron and steel from the Sydney Steel plant have been running into the Muggah Creek watershed located in the city's downtown area. It is now thought that the site holds about 700 000 tonnes of toxic matter and is contaminated by at least two severely carcinogenic substances: polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs).

  • Non-Thermal, Chemical Destruction of PCB from Sydney Tar Ponds Soil Extract
    Computational Methods and Experimental Measurements XIV 47 Non-thermal, chemical destruction of PCB from Sydney tar ponds soil extract A. J. Britten & S. MacKenzie Cape Breton University, Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada Abstract The Sydney Tar Ponds, in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada, contains more than 700,000 tonnes of contaminated sediments including PAH, hydrocarbon compounds, coal tar, PCB, coal dust, and municipal sewage. An important source of contamination are the PCB which cause adverse health affects to humans as well as environmental problems for the surrounding ecosystems through bioaccumulation and resistance to environmental breakdown. There are various processes for the remediation of contaminated sites. The most commonly used methods include incineration, solvent washing and/or extraction, stabilization/solidification and base catalyzed soil remediation. A recent and more environmentally friendly method for remediation is the “SonoprocessTM.” The claim is that PCB are destroyed in a non-thermal way using a sodium reaction and high frequency vibration to remove the chlorine atoms from the biphenyl. In this study, the process is modified to suit the Tar Ponds matrix and is tested on samples of PCB and PAH contaminated soil from the Tar Ponds. A steel bar (with a chamber containing the contaminated soil, sodium, and solvent attached to the end) is brought to its resonance frequency to destroy harmful contaminants. The energy which is generated is used to vibrate the PCB extract with sodium to break the C-Cl bonds. The soil mixture is removed and washed, resulting in clean, safe soil and sodium chloride by- product. The remaining solution from the extraction has a possibility of being used as a low-grade fuel.

  • The Sydney Tar Ponds: Lessons Learned from Canada’S First Superfund Level Project
    Brownfields V PII-173 The Sydney tar ponds: lessons learned from Canada’s first superfund level project E. MacLellan & A. Britten Cape Breton University, Sydney, Canada Abstract The paper traces the history of the Sydney Tar Ponds Clean-Up project from the first announcement in 1986 to the present, including comments on the more than $560M (USD) spent or committed to date. During this period the project generated thousands of headlines in print, television and radio media; and created significant grief for the community, elected officials, public servants, consultants and others. This paper examines the different attempts to clean-up the tar ponds and scopes out lessons learned related to organization structure, public engagement, risk communication, innovation and other areas. Keywords: Sydney tar ponds, hazardous waste, PAH, PCB, risk communication. 1 Introduction Canada’s first superfund level project is on budget and on schedule but the road to this point has had many twists and turns. In 1986 the Government of Canada and Province of Nova Scotia announced the Sydney Tar Ponds Clean-up project with a total budget of $34M; but from 1986 to 2010 there has been at least $560M spent or committed. This paper will provide background on the turbulent history of the project in four distinct stages. The lessons learned are then highlighted for discussion. 2 The community in history The Tar Ponds and Coke Ovens sites (Figure 1) are a legacy of a steel and coal industry that goes back to the Dominion Iron & Steel Company in 1899. The attraction for establishing a coal industry in Cape Breton was the coal mines, a very good harbour and the proximity to markets.
