Health Canada Comments
February 19, 2010 To Lisa Dyer Project Manager Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) Greenstone Building Suite 420, 4th Floor, 5101-50th Ave P.O. Box 518 Yellowknife, NT X1A 2N4 Re: Health Canada Review of the Supporting Document N1 Tier 2 Risk Assessment, Giant Mine Remediation Plan (SENES, 2006) (The Report) Dear Ms. Dyer: Thank you very much for the opportunity to review and comment on the above mentioned report in support of the Giant Mine Remediation Plan. Health Canada Alberta region (HC-AB) recognizes the complexity associated with the historical land uses of the Giant Mine site (“the site”) area and thanks PWGSC for coordinating the review process of this remediation project under Federal Contaminated Sites Action Plan (FCSAP) program. HC-AB understands that the Giant Mine Remediation project is in the Environmental Assessment (EA) stage. Please note, under FCSAP program, HC-AB Contaminated Sites Division provides the following comments based on our review of the above report. General Comments: 1. On June 06, 2005, Health Canada forwarded comments to INAC based on the review of the December 2004 version of the Tier II Risk Assessment Report where five key issues were identified: (i) Toxicity Reference Endpoints; (ii) Receptor Characteristics ;(iii) Bioaccessibility of Arsenic in Soils;(iv) Risk Characterization and, (v) Conclusions. 2. Please note, an overall update of the risk assessment report may be necessary based on the additional environmental and site specific chemical datasets (if available since 2005-2006) to effectively evaluate and assess site specific exposure scenarios, and to modify and characterize human health risks (if applicable) and to further utilize updated results of sensitivity analysis during the discussions and scoping of the future risk management plans, overall remedial decisions and future sensitive land use discussion phases of the project. -

Is LEED Certification Necessarily Better?
A case study assessment of the energy consumption of LEED certified academic buildings in Ontario: Is LEED certification necessarily better? by Janine Vanry A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Environmental Studies in Sustainability Management Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2015 ©Janine Vanry 2015 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract With “commercial and institutional buildings account[ing] for 12% of Canada’s secondary energy use and 11% of [the] national greenhouse gas emissions” (National Resources Canada, 2014), the energy consumption of Canada’s non-residential buildings plays a large role in both climate change and overall energy usage. Making these buildings more energy efficient provides opportunity to reduce both Canadian energy use and the overall effects of climate change from building construction and operation. The LEED New Construction v1 rating system stresses the importance of a building’s energy efficiency by designating 25% of its points towards energy reduction opportunities providing clear indication of the CaGBC’s belief in the potential for LEED certified buildings to reduce overall energy consumption in new buildings. As LEED certified buildings have been constructed for over a decade in Canada, there are opportunities to assess how these buildings are performing from an energy perspective in comparison to provincial averages. This study looks at LEED certified academic buildings in Ontario and evaluates their energy intensity in comparison to provincial survey averages, broad public sector data made available by the Green Energy Act, campus-wide energy intensities, and additionally assesses their actual energy performance in comparison to the modelled energy results submitted for final LEED certification. -
