This report represents volume 2 of the TEA of the Existing Champlain Bridge deconstruction project and features a description of the project’s environmental effects and proposed mitigation measures. Volume 1 presented a description of both the project and its environment. In order to determine the project’s potential effects, correlations between the project’s various phases and environmental components were identified. Each effect’s significance were assessed using three parameters: intensity, duration and extent. Mitigation measures were identified to reduce the significance of those effects and ensure that residual effects are negligible under the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, S.C. 1992, ch.37 (CEAA). The mitigation measures presented in the 2013 EA have been reviewed, adapted and enhanced to specifically reflect the effects of deconstruction, as well as to take into account the best practices in 2019 and the lessons learned during the New Bridge’s construction work. The main effects on physical environment components pertain to soil, groundwater and surface water quality. The presence of lightly contaminated soil, sediments and groundwater means that measures must be implemented to avoid spreading pollutants in the environment. Since a large part of the construction work will take place in or near water, many mitigation measures must be implemented to limit the dispersion of suspended matter and pollutants in the water. Water quality will be monitored throughout the construction period to ensure compliance with all requirements. Lastly, due to the presence of contaminants on the bridge, several mitigation measures must be implemented to minimize effects. Overall, the effects on the physical environment were deemed negligible in light of the proposed mitigation measures. Moreover, measures will be taken to mitigate air quality and greenhouse gas effects throughout the construction period. The installation of jetties runs the risk of disrupting wetlands along the river’s shore. Measures must be taken to limit this disruption, and an ecological function compensation project must be developed. Effects are also expected on the fish habitats, migratory birds and endangered species during the construction period. The project could lead to the disruption, deterioration or loss of fragile fish habitats. A compensation program will be required to mitigate those effects. Migratory bird nesting could also be disrupted during the construction period. Restriction periods will be implemented to minimize such disruptions. Endangered species (Peregrine Falcon and American Eel) could also be affected during the project. The Peregrine Falcon’s nesting sites must be moved and the river currents near the jetties must not impede the migration of the American Eel and other fish species. Species with provincial status are also present. Specific measures must be taken to mitigate effects on the Brown Snake, Lake Sturgeon, American Shad, Chain Pickerel and Rosyface Shiner. In light of the mitigation measures and compensation projects, the effects on the biological environment are deemed negligible. i Targeted environmental analysis Preliminary Report Volume 2 – sections 4 to 10 April 2019 Assessment of Effects and Mitigation Measures With regard to the human environment, the main effects will be noise pollution due to deconstruction work and material transportation. Mitigation measures are planned within sensitive areas during both phases. A noise management program must be implemented as soon as construction work begins to ensure compliance to all requirements. Some recreational activities may also be disrupted, but measures will be implemented to ensure user safety and minimize any inconvenience. Effects on human environments were deemed negligible and will be addressed with the proper mitigation measures. The analysis of the project’s cumulative and environmental effects also revealed that the project did not feature significant residual effects. To comply with environmental requirements, JCCBI will require the selected contractor to implement an environmental management system. This system will enable the tracking and monitoring of the mitigation measures and performance objectives set during the EA, as well as reporting when needed. Lastly, JCCBI will also provide community benefits such as material recovery, asset enhancement (a shoreline development project for recreational and commemorative purposes), Envision certification and an R&D programme using materials or components taken from the deconstructed bridge. ii Targeted environmental analysis Preliminary Report Volume 2 – sections 4 to 10 April 2019 Assessment of Effects and Mitigation Measures Project team Name Involvement in project Jacqueline Roy, M.Sc., Biol.

  • The Notre-Dame Street Overpass Sidewalk: from Bill Vazan's
    Palimpsest III: The Dialectics of Montreal’s Public Spaces Department of Art History, Concordia University The Notre-Dame Street Overpass Sidewalk: From Bill Vazan’s Highway #37 to Today Philippe Guillaume September 2010 Cynthia I. Hammond, and Anja Bock, eds. Palimpsest III: The Dialectics of Montreal’s Public Spaces An already-made geography sets the stage, while the willful making of history dictates the action …1 The sidewalk plays a fundamental role as a place of transit in the modern city, as well as being a space of sensorial experience. A specific walkway can represent aesthetic change across generations while, nonetheless, eliciting sensory experiences where the pedestrian’s feeling of safety is axiomatic. Such a space is seen in a photograph that is part of Montreal artist Bill Vazan’s conceptual project Highway #37, created in 1970. Detail 151 (Fig. 1), a black and white photograph, illustrates an eastward view of Notre-Dame Street taken from the southern sidewalk along the Notre-Dame Street overpass, a viaduct that spans over the old Dalhousie and Viger stations rail-yards. This is a historic locus linked to travel: this epic street exits Old Montreal towards the eastern part of the island. On today’s maps it spans between Berry and St-Christophe streets. When viewed through Vazan’s framing, this cityscape still serves as a striking palimpsest of the city’s modernist past, where, formally, the sidewalk encompasses all the elements associated with a safe space for pedestrian travel. A comparative view of the landscape seen in Vazan’s photograph between the time it was made and the present further enriches the narrative of this place, which nowadays sits on the cusp of the city’s salient tourist space, Old Montreal.

  • The City and the St. Lawrence – Analysis of Development Issues and Potential
    CHAPTER ONE The Montréal Harbourfront: A History The City and the St. Lawrence – Analysis of Development Issues and Potential Introduction The story of Montréal's old harbour is at the heart of much of Canada's economic, political and social his- tory, and can consequently be considered of national significance. It is a story rooted in its geography, which combines three features highly conducive to the development of a dynamic port. First, the area forms a natural harbour- an essential precondition for the settlement of New France during the 17th century, when rivers were the only important links to the outside world. It is also situated at the confluence of three major waterways offering access to the interior of the North American continent (the 8 St. Lawrence, Ottawa and Richelieu rivers). Finally, the harbour is located at the western boundary of the navigable section of the St. Lawrence. Since navigation was hampered by the Lachine Rapids, it was for a significant time an obligatory stopping point, as well as a hub for the exploration and development of the hinterland. Birthplace of the modern port of Montréal (today North America's largest inland fresh- water port), the old harbourfront is also, more broadly, the cradle of Montréal and its surroundings.
