Lake Plan Report SHARBOT LAKE LAKE PLAN REPORT JULY 2013 Sharbot Lake Property Owners’ Association Township of Central Frontenac County of Frontenac Ontario SHARBOT LAKE PROPERTY OWNERS’ ASSOCIATION P.O. BOX 333, SHARBOT LAKE, ON K0H 2PO www.slpoa.ca A MESSAGE TO RESIDENTS AND COTTAGERS It has taken us a long time to get to this point in the development of our lake plan. So many people have helped with the collection of information and data. The members of our association are to be commended for their efforts and photos that have been sent in. This report will act as a baseline for monitoring purposes as well as to help clarify fact from folklore when it comes to issues that affect our lake and the environment. It was very important that we involved as much of the community as possible as part of the process which included a test/pilot survey; final survey (150 responses received); a workshop; the draft reports; communication via our newsletters, website and Annual General Meetings; fundraising as well as ongoing analysis and data collection. All of the information in this document is a result of our best efforts to bring the facts to you and any discrepancies or oversights are because we are human. As your President, it is my pleasure to bring this report to you. We all care about the state of our environment and we all want the best for future generations to be able to enjoy Sharbot Lake and the pristine surroundings we all love and cherish.

  • Bill Allen -- Nineteenth Century Aboriginal Farmers of the Madawaska River
    Nineteenth Century Aboriginal Farmers of the Madawaska River Bill Allen, Heritage One Research ABSTRACT Early in the nineteenth century Aboriginal people were practising farming along the Madawaska River. The Madawaska is prominent in several ancient canoe routes between the Ottawa River Watershed and Georgian Bay Watershed so, not surprisingly, the evidence of Aboriginal farming lies at key points along these routes. In the third quarter of the century, as large scale timber operations pushed further into the interior in areas now part of Algonquin Park, Aboriginal farmers were among the first to clear land, plant crops and build homes and other structures. Recent archaeological evidence confirms locations noted in early survey maps and other primary documents and confirms the mutual support of farming and timbering. The evidence challenges us to accept the extent to which Algonquin families embraced farming in the period prior to the formation of Algonquin Park and the arrival of the railway. This paper provides background about Madawaska canoe routes and features as well as illustrations of Aboriginal farming development and the role of key people such as Algonquin Chief Peter Sharbot. RÉSUMÉ Au début du XIXe siècle, les peuples autochtones pratiquaient l’agriculture sur les rives de la Madawaska. Cette rivière joue un rôle important comme ancienne voie de canotage entre le bassin hydrographique de la rivière des Outaouais et celui de la baie Georgienne; il n’est donc pas étonnant que les traces de cultures autochtones se retrouvent à des points clés le long de ces voies. Dans le troisième quart du siècle, avec l’expansion des exploitations de bois de sciage à l’intérieur du territoire, dans des régions faisant partie de l’actuel parc Algonquin, les fermiers autochtones ont été parmi les premiers à défricher la terre, à cultiver, et à construire des maisons et d’autres structures.

  • Meet the Water Rangers Guardians! This Year, with the Help of Great Lakes Guardian Program, We Transformed How Ontarians Interacted with Local Waterbodies
    Meet the Water Rangers Guardians! This year, with the help of Great Lakes Guardian program, we transformed how Ontarians interacted with local waterbodies. Funding provided by An innovative environmental non-profit From the tiniest creek to the biggest lake, Canada is known for its water. Yet average citizens do not realize how their livelihood is connected with their watershed. Even when they learn about beaches closing or fish dying, they do not feel there is anything they can or should do. Water Rangers empowers citizens to learn and take action on water conservation through our user-friendly web platform, water stewardship training, and water quality testkits. Founded in 2015 through Aquahacking, we’re a non- profit organization based in Ottawa aiming to make water science easy to understand. We deepen our impact by providing tools and training to understand, test and protect waterways. About this Funding provided by project Water Rangers Guardians conduct water quality tests, clean up garbage and naturalize shorelines in order to become guardians for their local lake, river or stream! The program engaged community groups over the year, and trained students during excursions. This project w funded by Ontario through the Great Lakes Guardian Fund. Our Theory of Change states that when people learn Temiskaming about, then test water, they are prompted to take action Guardians must be located in the to protect it (Learn --> Test --> Act). Through this grant, thanks to Government of Ontario’s Great Lakes Guardian St. Lawrence River Watershed Fund, we took community and youth groups through this journey by first introducing them to water health, teach- (Ontario side) X ing them how to test water and the value of collecting Sudbury Q baseline data over time, and then prompting them to AX Q K act by collecting bags of garbage and restoring a modi- North Bay QUEBEC fied shoreline by letting it go natural and planting native shrubs.

The AOO understand that following the submission of a Project Description (Attachment 1) by CNL on April 1, 2016, the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) has determined that an Environmental Assessment (EA) under the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, 2012 is required. The CNSC commenced the EA process on May 5, 2016. The AOO appreciate the opportunity at this stage of the process to provide written comments on the Project Description for the NSDF at Chalk River Laboratories. Since 1772, when the first Algonquin Petition was submitted to the Crown, the Algonquins have been on a journey of rebuilding and rediscovery. Today, the AOO are comprised of ten Algonquin Communities. These include the Algonquins of Pikwakanagan First Nation, Antoine, Kijicho Manito Madaouskarini (Bancroft), Bonnechere, Greater Golden Lake, Mattawa/North Bay, Ottawa, Shabot Obaadjiwan (Sharbot Lake), Snimikobi (Ardoch) and Whitney and Area (Attachment 2).
