Attachment Mts-04
IN THE MATTER OF the Ontario Energy Board Act, 1998, S.O. 1998, C. 15, (Schedule B); AND IN THE MATTER OF an Application by Canadian Distributed Antenna Systems Coalition for certain orders under the Ontario Energy Board Act, 1998. AFFIDAVIT OF MICHAEL STARKEY ON BEHALF OF TORONTO HYDRO-ELECTRIC SYSTEM LIMITED (“THESL” or “Toronto Hydro”) ATTACHMENT MTS-04 ATTACHMENT MTS-04 Attachment MTS-04 Listing of Cellular/PCS/AWS Station Sites Within 25 Kms. of the Center of Toronto MTS-04 is intended to identify the physical locations (i.e., station sites) of all antennas licensed for radio-transmission within the cellular/PCS/AWS frequency bands that are within 25 kilometers of the center of Toronto. Attachment MTS-04 was developed as follows. Step 1: The Attachment MTS-03 dataset served as staring point. Because that dataset includes antenna arrays that may be operated by different carriers at the same station site, it was necessary to eliminate multiple records for the same station site. The first step in that process involved concatenating the latitude and longitude fields into a single number and sorting on this new field. A simple @IF formula (i.e., if lat-long field of current record = lat-long field of previous record, flag as a duplicate) was then applied to compare successive records’ concatenated latitude-longitude fields and remove all duplicates (which represent multiple antenna arrays collocated at the same station site), so that only a single unique record remained for each location (latitude/longitude). Step 2: However, we also encountered numerous instances in which the various wireless operators had entered non-identical latitude-longitude and/or street address information on the records they supplied to the ALS database for what were clearly intended to represent the same station locations. -
UP Express Electrification EA Noise and Vibration Assessment Report
UP Express Electrification EA Noise and Vibration Assessment Report FINAL Project No. 1124019.00 March, 2014 UP Express Electrification EA FINAL Impact Assessment Report – Noise and Vibration Executive Summary The purpose of this report is to document the noise and vibration Baseline Conditions (Part A) and Impact Assessment (Part B) that was completed as part of the UP Express Electrification EA. Baseline conditions were established using modelling and measurements that were completed in support of previous Georgetown South Service Expansion and Union Pearson Rail Link (GSSE-UPRL) EA reports completed by Metrolinx. Operational noise and vibration impacts have been evaluated based on guidance from the Ontario Ministry of the Environment (MOE) for evaluation of rail transportation projects (i.e., the UP Express service) and stationary sources (i.e., supporting facilities including paralleling stations and EMU maintenance facility). Noise and vibration impacts from construction activities associated with the UP Express project have been considered in accordance with the requirements of the applicable MOE guidelines and best practices. The UP Express service will also include transformer stations associated with the Traction Power Supply system. The Traction Power Supply system is subject to the provincial Environmental Assessment Act in accordance with the Class EA for Minor Transmission Facilities. Therefore, the potential effects related to the new TPS are being assessed by Hydro One as part of this separate Class EA process (refer to the Hydro One Union Pearson Express Electrification Traction Power Supply System Class Environmental Assessment - Draft Environmental Study Report). The UP Express service will commence operations with train sets comprised of Diesel Multiple Units (DMUs). -

William R. Allen Road Temporary Closure – Metrolinx Eglinton Crosstown LRT Tunnel Boring Machine Lift
PW2.5 STAFF REPORT ACTION REQUIRED William R. Allen Road Temporary Closure – Metrolinx Eglinton Crosstown LRT Tunnel Boring Machine Lift Date: February 2, 2015 To: Public Works and Infrastructure Committee From: General Manager, Transportation Services Wards: Ward 15 (Eglinton-Lawrence) Ward 21 (St. Paul's) Reference P:\2015\ClusterB\TRA\TIM\pw15004tim.docx Number: SUMMARY The purpose of this report is to seek City Council’s authority to close the section of William R. Allen Road between Eglinton Avenue West and Lawrence Avenue West for one weekend in order to safely facilitate the lift and transfer of two tunnel boring machines being utilized by Metrolinx for its construction of the Eglinton Crosstown LRT project. A closing of one of the southbound lanes is also recommended prior to the weekend closure in order to facilitate construction staging. Additional closures are required on Eglinton Avenue West from Flanders Road (immediately to the east of William R. Allen Road) to Park Hill Road (immediately to the west of William R. Allen Road). This includes the off-ramp from southbound William R. Allen Road and the on-ramp to northbound William R. Allen Road. These closures can be approved by the General Manager of Transportation Services. Further to the proposed closure of William R. Allen Road between Eglinton Avenue West and Lawrence Avenue West, the section between Lawrence Avenue West and Sheppard Avenue West would also be closed at the same time for maintenance purposes. This additional closure for City maintenance, which also falls under the delegated authority of the General Manager, is being combined with the closure proposed by Metrolinx to avoid the need for a second weekend closure of William R. -
