Environment Act Proposal Executive Summary Roquette Canada Ltd.(“Roquette”) proposes to construct and operate a new Pea Processing Facility (“Facility”) in the Rural Municipality of Portage la Prairie, approximately 4 km west of the City of Portage la Prairie, Manitoba. The site of the Facility is bordered by Simplot to the north and northwest, Enns Brothers to the northwest, and JL Agronomics to the west, and Provincial Road 41W (also known as Simplot Road) to the west and southwest. The purpose of the Pea Processing Facility is to process yellow peas into three key products: fibers, protein, and starch. Each of these products has several additional applications in industries such as pharma, nutrition, and food. The Facility will use yellow peas, and produce powdered starch, powdered protein, and powdered fibers (pea fiber) as the main products, and broken peas and hulls pellets as the co-products. Trucks will be used to bring in raw material to be processed, and to transport products to market. Construction of the proposed Facility is to begin in August 2017 with a targeted operational date of July 2019. This Environment Act Proposal (EAP) has been prepared by AECOM Canada Ltd. (“AECOM”), on behalf of Roquette, in accordance with the information described in Manitoba Sustainable Development’s Information Bulletin (2015), “Environment Act Proposal Report Guidelines.” It has been prepared and is submitted for consideration of Roquette’s application for licence under The Environment Act, CCSM c E125. The proposed Pea Processing Facility will be considered a Class 2 Development as per the Classes of Development Regulation 164/88 of The Environment Act, CCSM c E125). A copy of the Proposal Form is attached in Appendix A. The environmental effects of the proposed Facility have been assessed as follows: Topography The effects on topography during the construction phase of the Facility are expected to be Negligible as the Project Site will be prepared by the Rural Municipality of Portage la Prairie prior to construction. Site preparation work completed by the Rural Municipality of Portage la Prairie will include clearing, grading, and levelling. Any additional land preparation work required during construction will include construction of the different features on the site including the Production Area, Utilities Area, Packaging and Outbound Trucking Area, and Administrative Offices Area. Therefore, the residual impact on topography caused by the proposed Project is assessed to be Negligible. Soil With respect to soil compaction, mixing, and erosion during construction, the implementation of mitigation measures identified in this assessed are expected to mitigate any potential soil compaction/mixing and erosion effects. Therefore, it is anticipated that the residual effect on soil is expected to be Negligible. Groundwater Roquette does not intend to utilize groundwater during construction or during operation of this Facility. All water required on-site will be come from the City of Portage la Prairie water supply system. Therefore, the project is not expected to impact groundwater. Air Quality With the implementation of the mitigation measures noted in the assessment while carrying out construction activities, the effect of dust during construction and operation is expected to be Negligible to Minor. In regards to exhaust emissions, equipment to be used during construction includes: forklifts, dozers, compactors, loaders. During operation, it is expected that there will be approximately 75 trucks travelling to and from the Facility. It is also anticipated that on average, there will be 120 employee vehicles also AECOM Portage Pea Project Roquette Canada Ltd. Environment Act Proposal travelling to the Facility on a daily basis. With the implementation of the mitigation measures identified in this assessment such as encouraging carpooling, limiting vehicle idling, and keeping vehicles well- maintained, the effects of exhaust emissions during construction and operation are expected to be Negligible. An air dispersion model was conducted to determine the proposed impacts of the Facility during operation. Overall, there are not expected to be any significant impacts to ambient air quality from the proposed Facility given the location of the proposed Facility and the absence of sensitive receptors. Modelling results of the proposed project predict that PM2.5, PM10 and TSP maximum concentrations may exceed the MAAQC in a small area immediately east of the Facility; these concentrations drop below the Manitoba Ambient Air Quality Criteria (MAAQC) within 20 m of the Facility and remain well under at all sensitive receptors. The effects on ambient air quality due to the operation of the proposed Facility are expected to be Minor when the proximity of the nearby sensitive receptors is considered. Noise With respect to noise during construction and operation (vehicle movement on the Project Site), the noise levels at the Project Site are not expected to be high enough to cause significant disturbance in the Project Area. With the implementation of the measures such as providing hearing protection to employees and visitors as required and properly maintaining vehicles and equipment are expected to appropriately mitigate potential adverse effects. A Noise Impact Study was completed as part of this assessment. The purpose of this study was to estimate the noise impact of the proposed Facility based on project design and provide noise mitigation recommendations where necessary. The impact of noise at two of the nearest noise sensitive locations is expected to be low. A Noise Management Plan will be developed to outline procedural commitments to minimizing noisy events, commitments on noise levels related to maintenance, complaint procedures, and noise monitoring procedures in response to specific complaints. Climate Sources of greenhouse gas emissions associated with the proposed Project include vehicle exhausts and exhausts from diesel construction equipment (i.e., general vehicle movement on-site, using equipment for grading, and placing materials). With the implementation of mitigation measures identified in this assessment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (minimizing idling, keeping vehicles well-maintained, encouraging carpooling, and periodic inspections), the residual effects on climate are expected to be Negligible. Surface Water Quality Surface drainage from the Project Site flows northward through various drains and eventually drains into Lake Manitoba, located approximately 25 km north of the Project Site. There will be no direct wastewater discharge from the proposed Facility into any nearby waterbodies. Wastewater from the production processes will be discharged to the City of Portage la Prairie’s Water Pollution Control Facility for further processing. Flora Species As indicated above, the site preparation work completed by the RM of Portage la Prairie will include clearing, grading, and levelling as needed. Any additional land preparation work required during construction will include site drainage, along with the construction of the different features on the site including the Production Area, Utilities Area, Packaging and Outbound Trucking Area, and Administrative Offices Area. Once construction is complete, the site will be re-vegetated and landscaped. Fauna Species The Project Site was previously used as agricultural land and is not expected to contain critical breeding habitat. The terrestrial survey planned

  • Page 1 of 3 MANITOBA FIRST NATIONS POLICE SERVICE
    MANITOBA FIRST NATIONS POLICE SERVICE (DAKOTA OJIBWAY POLICE SERVICE) History The original establishment of the Dakota Ojibway Tribal Council Police Department, now known as the Dakota Ojibway Police Service, dated December 1974, was prepared and agreed to by all Chiefs of the D.O.T.C. After three years of negotiations, funding was approved by the different levels of government. In November of 1977, the police department commenced operations with one Chief of Police and nine members. The program was funded by Indian & Northern Affairs Canada from 1977 to 1993. The development of the Police Service was to establish local control and accountability to the First Nation communities. In November of 1993, the Police Service ceased operations due to a lack of funding commitment from the Province of Manitoba. Tripartite negotiations reconvened in 1994 and technical meetings took place as follows: March 10, May 12, May 26 and June 23, 1994. On May 19, 1994, the D.O.T.C. Council of Chiefs and representatives from both levels of Government, Manitoba Justice and Public Safety Canada were able to secure an Interim Policing Service Agreement which saw the restoration of joining policing services (D.O.P.S./R.C.M.P.) to (7) seven of the (8) eight D.O.T.C. Member First Nation communities, with the effective start date of June 1, 1994. On December 31, 1994, a long-term Tripartite Agreement was finalized and on February 1, 1995, the Dakota Ojibway Police Service resumed full-time policing services to (6) six D.O.T.C. First Nation communities: Birdtail Sioux First Nation, Dakota Plains Wahpeton Nation, Long Plain First Nation, Canupawakpa Dakota Nation, Roseau River Anishinabe First Nation and Sioux Valley Dakota Nation.

The directory also serves as a means of improving communications among people. The idea for the directory arose from the desire to make information about Indigenous organizations more available to the public. This directory was first published in 1975 and has grown from 16 pages in the first edition to more than 100 pages in the current edition. The directory reflects the vitality and diversity of Indigenous cultural traditions, organizations, and enterprises. The editorial committee has made every effort to present accurate and up-to-date listings, with fax numbers, email addresses and websites included whenever possible.

  • Section M: Community Support
    Section M: Community Support Page 251 of 653 Community Support Health Canada’s Regional Advisor for Children Special Services has developed the Children’s Services Reference Chart for general information on what types of health services are available in the First Nations’ communities. Colour coding was used to indicate where similar services might be accessible from the various community programs. A legend that explains each of the colours /categories can be found in the centre of chart. By using the chart’s colour coding system, resource teachers may be able to contact the communities’ agencies and begin to open new lines of communication in order to create opportunities for cost sharing for special needs services with the schools. However, it needs to be noted that not all First Nations’ communities offer the depth or variety of the services described due to many factors (i.e., budgets). Unfortunately, there are times when special needs services are required but cannot be accessed for reasons beyond the school and community. It is then that resource teachers should contact Manitoba’s Regional Advisor for Children Special Services to ask for direction and assistance in resolving the issue. Manitoba’s Regional Advisor, Children’s Special Services, First Nations and Inuit Health Programs is Mary L. Brown.
