Crowe Valley Conservation Authority Ganaraska Region Conservation Authority Kawartha Region Conservation Authority Lower Trent Region Conservation Authority Otonabee Region Conservation Authority PREFACE This Assessment Report was prepared to satisfy the requirements of the Clean Water Act on behalf of the Trent Conservation Coalition Source Protection Committee. The Report is made up of three volumes: Volume I (Text), Volume 2 (Appendices), and Volume 3 (Maps). While some figures have been included in the text for illustrative purposes, the complete map set is in Volume 3. This Assessment Report applies to four of the five source protection areas in the Trent Conservation Coalition Source Protection Region – Crowe Valley, Kawartha‐Haliburton, Lower Trent, and Otonabee‐Peterborough – referred to collectively as the “Trent source protection areas.” A separate Assessment Report has been prepared for the Ganaraska Region Source Protection Area. The water budget for a small portion of the Ganaraska Region Source Protection Area that flows into the Trent River system is also discussed in this report. The purpose of the Assessment Report is to assess the quality and quantity of municipal drinking water supplies across the applicable source protection areas. The Assessment Report identifies significant threats including potential future threats that could impact drinking water sources. The Assessment Report was developed from a number of background reports (see Appendix F) prepared by Conservation Technical Rules Authorities, municipalities, and consultants that have been The Technical Rules sets out the requirements for the Assessment Report. completed in accordance with the Clean Water Act using the best These rules are referred to throughout this available data.

The Technical Rules is available on the reports and the Assessment Report content are set out in detail in Ministry of the Environment and Climate the Technical Rules: Assessment Report, which was developed by Change website: www.ene.gov.on.ca/en/water/cleanwater the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change. Public Consultation The draft Proposed Assessment Report was made available for public consultation from June 2 to July 9, 2010. It was posted on the Trent Conservation Coalition website (www.trentsourceprotection.on.ca), and public meetings were held in each of the source protection areas in order to seek input from the public. The comments received from the public were considered by the Source Protection Committee, and the draft Proposed Assessment Report was revised as appropriate. Following the revisions, the Proposed Assessment Report was posted for a second round of public consultation (September 10 to October 10, 2010) and submitted to the Source Protection Authorities established under the Clean Water Act. The Source Protection Authorities were responsible for submitting the Proposed Assessment Report to the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change for review. The Proposed Trent Assessment Report was submitted on October 29, 2010. During the winter of 2010‐11, the document was updated to address data gaps and to reflect new information received since the October submission. Further, comments were received from the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change in April 2011, which were addressed in the document. The Draft Amended Proposed Trent Assessment Report was submitted for public consultation from May 3 to June 4, 2011. Comments received were considered by the Source Protection Committee. The Amended Proposed Trent Assessment Report was submitted to the Source Protection Authorities for the Trent Source Protection Areas and then forwarded to the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change for review and consideration

AUTHOR'S PREFACE This history has been appearing serially through the Lindsaj "Watchman-Warder" for the past eleven months and is now issued in book form for the first time. The occasion for its preparation is, of course, the one hundredth anniversary of the opening up of Victoria county. Its chief purposes are four in number: — (1) to place on record the local details of pioneer life that are fast passing into oblivion; (2) to instruct the present generation of school-children in the ori- gins and development of the social system in which they live; (3) to show that the form which our county's development has taken has been largely determined by physiographical, racial, social, and economic forces; and (4) to demonstrate how we may, after a scien- tific study of these forces, plan for the evolution of a higher eco- nomic and social order. The difficulties of the work have been prodigious. A Victoria County Historical Society, formed twenty years ago for a similar purpose, found the field so sterile that it disbanded, leaving no re- cords behind. Under such circumstances, I have had to dig deep.

    AN ENGRAVED SLATE POINT from SOUTHERN ONTARIO Richard B

    JOHNSTON: ENGRAVED SLATE POINT 23 AN ENGRAVED SLATE POINT FROM SOUTHERN ONTARIO Richard B. Johnston ABSTRACT A consideration and interpretation of a slate point bearing apparently notational engraving suggests that it may have been associated with Late Archaic ceremonialism. INTRODUCTION Some years ago a ground slate point was found north of Blairton, Ontario (Belmont Township, Peterborough County) in the shallow waters of the Crowe River a short distance north of Crowe Lake. It was a fortuitous and isolated discovery by a cottage owner, Mrs. H. J. (Joyce) Armstrong, presently of Peterborough, to whom I am indebted for her having brought the artifact to our attention and for subsequently depositing it in the collection of the Trent University Archaeological Centre (number 7PT23-1 from Borden location BcGk-4). What distinguishes this specimen from other slate points of the region and makes it of special interest is the extensive engraving cut into both faces of the point. THE POINT AND ENGRAVING The point is 124 mm in length, including a small allowance for damage at the tip, and has a maximum width of 32 mm near the base of the blade. The maximum thickness is 8 mm in the center of the midsection of the blade which has a lozenge-shaped cross-section with four flat external faces. The point weights 38.8 g and is made of a dark uniform slate; in terms of Munsell soil colours it would be described as very dark gray, approximating 2.5 YR 3/0. The form of the point is within the range exhibited by slate points of southern Ontario, although it is longer and narrower than average, while the base could be said to be atypical in that it is not the relatively long tapering or contracting stemmed form commonly seen on slate points.
  • Flood Plain Mapping Study Burnt River

    Flood Plain Mapping Study Burnt River

    Flood Plain Mapping Study Burnt River Final Report May 2019 Executive Summary The primary goals of this study are to create hydrologic and hydraulic models of the watershed and produce flood plain mapping for Burnt River from the outlet to Cameron Lake to the hamlet of Burnt River. The mapping will allow the City of Kawartha Lakes and Kawartha Conservation staff to make informed decisions about future land use and identify flood hazard reduction opportunities. The Burnt River Flood Plain Mapping Study was subject to a comprehensive peer review for core components: data collection, data processing, hydrologic modeling, hydraulic modeling, and map generation. The process was supported throughout by a Technical Committee consisting of technical/managerial staff from Ganaraska Conservation, the City of Kawartha Lakes, and Kawartha Conservation. Topics discussed in this study include: • Previous studies in the area • Collection of LiDAR, bathymetry and orthophoto data • Proposed land use • Delineation of hydrology subcatchments • Creation of a Visual OTTHYMO hydrology model for Regional (Timmins) Storm • Calculation of subcatchment hydrology model parameters • Derivation of flow peaks at key nodes along the watercourse • Flood Frequency Analysis for the 2, 5, 10, 25, 50 and 100 year events • Creation of a HEC-RAS hydraulic model • Creation of flood plain maps Key elements of this study include: • The Timmins storm is the Regulatory Event for the watercourse • Flood plain maps are to be created based on the highest flood elevation of the calculated water surface elevations Key recommendations of this study: • The maps created from the results of the HEC-RAS model for Burnt River Creek should be endorsed by the Kawartha Conservation Board.

  • Algonquins of Ontario

    Algonquins of Ontario

    Algonquins of Ontario Friday, October 11, 2019 Changes to the 2019 – 2020 Algonquin Park Harvest Area Pembroke, ON – For many years, the annual Algonquins of Ontario harvest of moose, deer and elk has been managed pursuant to management plans developed by the Algonquin Negotiation Representatives (ANRs). These management plans establish the process of issuing tags to eligible Algonquin harvesters, the species that can be harvested, the season during which harvesting shall occur and the Harvest Area within which harvesting may take place. They also provide for reporting and monitoring of harvesting activities. These management plans have resulted in responsible and well-managed Algonquin harvesting for many years. In the past, Algonquin harvesting of moose and deer as well as the harvesting of other species of game normally taken for food in Algonquin Park has been restricted to the area within Wildlife Management Unit (WMU) 51 and to the east of Shirley Lake Road. For the 2019-2020 harvest season, the Algonquins of Ontario have decided that this area is now expanded to include that portion of Algonquin Park that lies within WMU 51, both east and west of Shirley Lake Road, north of the Hwy 60 Corridor Development Zone and within the Algonquin of Ontario Settlement Area. This decision has been taken after a great deal of consideration and is the result of anticipated increased harvesting by members of the Métis Nation of Ontario pursuant to arrangements made with the government of Ontario that have been challenged in court by the Algonquins of Ontario. In recent years moose populations in certain Wildlife Management Units have declined significantly, coinciding with increased harvesting by self-identified Métis harvesters.

    Cobourg, for Example, and the Mem- Bers of the Family Compact at York, and Later, Toronto-Could Begin to Think of Recreational Needs on a More Sophisticated Level

    co THE SUMMER RESORTS OF ONTARIO IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY By Roy 1. Wolfe I In the early decades of the nineteenth century, when settlement in Upper Canada was still in the frontier era, the back country, a few miles inland from the Lower Lakes, was still wilderness. This was pioneer country, and there could be as yet no thought of using land for recreation, 1 while the land itself had to be tamed. The rural settlers had two chief sources of enjoyment-liquor and religion. The former was in good supply (Anna Jameson in 1837 was struck by the vast number of taverns that lined the road between Toronto and Lake Simcoe) but it would be many years before there was a direct relation between liquor and the summer re~QJ Exactly the reverse was true of religion: if in recent years there seems to have been little connection between religion and the summer resort, in the beginning it was very close., The most enjoyable religious ceremony the settlers knew was the Methodist camp-meeting, which sup- plemented the work of itinerant preachers, and reached its fullest de- velopment in the 1820~s.The excitement of the camp-meeting, the hysteria and violent conversions/ had an emotional appeal that nothing else could bring to the barren lives of the isolated settlers. Not only the religious came, but those of few religious convictions,3 who derived enjoyment from the spectacle. Camp-meetings lasted as long as a week, and people stayed in tents at the camping-grounds, which thus came to have the appearance of many future summer resorts.

Greetings After the winter of our discontent, of divisive politics, of deep ice encrusted snow and bitter cold, followed by a spring of endless rains and almost biblical plagues of mosquitoes and black-flies, we are now brightening our outlook. Summer is coming! The cottage roads are open again. Life is good. Welcome back to Salerno Lake (if you ever left….) Take a look at our SDLCA Events Calendar for this summer and mark the dates. There’s much to look forward to and it is our hope that you will participate. We have a terrific community here on Salerno Lake and you are an important part of it. The annual Canada Day Fireworks will be held this year on - gasp - Saturday July 1st, the actual Canada Day. That hap- pens only once every seven years… On July the 8th we have our very first Dock Sale AND our 7th Concert On The Lake at 6:30 PM featuring Kiyomi Valentine (McCloskey) a talented young woman who has a deep family connection to Salerno Lake. (Her sister Chloe was married here just last summer!) It’s also the summer of our 50th Annual Canoe Race, an incredible milestone in a long, storied tradition. And we will be holding the 2nd edition of the Youth Race for those 6-12 years of age. These events will be held on Sunday August 6th. The route of the Canoe Race is still to be determined due to the large log jam on the Irondale River.
