Local residents can find the most recent status of public beaches at any time by visiting www.peterboroughpublichealth.ca or by calling PPH at 705-743-1000, ext. 232 during office hours. Residents are also encouraged to follow Peterborough Public Health on Twitter @Ptbohealth for beach updates throughout the summer. The routine inspection program for all public beaches runs from June until August. The city beaches at Rogers Cove and Beavermead are sampled by Public Health Inspectors every business day, and public beaches in the county are sampled at least once a week, except for Chandos Beach, Quarry Bay Beach, White’s Beach, Belmont Lake Beach and Kasshabog Lake Beach which are sampled at least once in June, July and August. Though PPH will always maintain its inspection schedule, the following may result in unsafe levels of bacteria between sampling periods: Heavy rainfall • High winds or wave activity Large numbers of water fowl • Large numbers of swimmers Some things that you are able to do to ensure the water quality stays safe: Do not feed waterfowl Do not let children swim in soiled diapers Pick up your garbage Clean up after your dog Water samples will be submitted to the Peterborough Public Health Ontario Laboratory for bacteriological analysis.

  • Fire Master Plan Update 2013
    Township of Selwyn Fire Master Plan Update 2013 Background In the province of Ontario, municipalities must abide by the Fire Protection and Prevention Act (FPPA) which states that every municipality shall: 1. establish a program in the municipality which must include public education with respect to fire safety and certain components of fire prevention; and 2. provide such other fire protection services as it determines may be necessary in accordance with its needs and circumstances. In accordance with this legislation, Bylaw 2010-072 establishes the Township of Selwyn Fire Department and provides for its structure, duties, responsibilities and levels of services. A copy of this Bylaw is attached as Appendix “A”. A Fire Master Plan is a comprehensive document that complements the Establishing Bylaw and sets out priorities for fire protection services that consider legislated requirements, local needs and circumstances, and the financial resources of municipality. The process reviews all aspects of the Department’s operation and identifies options and opportunities for developing and delivering the services through the most efficient and effective use of available resources. The Township of Selwyn adopted its first Fire Master Plan on February 12, 2008. The Plan included recommendations and key priorities that were intended to provide direction to the Fire Department with respect to policy, operational and capital decisions over a five-year period. In 2011 the Township began the process to review the status of the existing Fire Master Plan

The Ganaraska Region Conservation Authority would like to thank the many seasonal staff that provided field assistance and the landowners who granted permission to collect data from their property.

Certain sections of this report have been summarized from peer reviewed or consultant documents, and review and input into this document by committee members, stakeholders and residents occurred in 2009.
