    Hamilton Harbour and Watershed Fisheries Management Plan A cooperative resource management plan developed by the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and the Royal Botanical Gardens April 7, 2010 Correct citation for this publication: Bowlby, J.N. , K. McCormack, and M.G. Heaton. 2010. Hamilton Harbour and Watershed Fisheries Management Plan. Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Royal Botanical Gardens. Hamilton Harbour and Watershed Fisheries Management Plan Executive Summary Introduction The Hamilton Harbour and Watershed Fisheries Management Plan (HHWFMP) provides information about the characteristics of the watershed, the state of fisheries resources, and guidance for the management of fisheries resources in the watershed. The need for the HHWFMP developed directly from successes of the Hamilton Harbour Remedial Action Plan (RAP) to restore water quality and fish habitat in Hamilton Harbour and its watershed. Hamilton Harbour is a large embayment at the western tip of Lake Ontario. The main tributaries of Hamilton Harbour include Spencer Creek, Grindstone Creek, and Red Hill Creek. The Hamilton Harbour watershed, which includes the contributing streams and creeks, covers an area of approximately 500 km2. It encompasses some of the regions most scenic and diverse landscapes: the Niagara Escarpment is a prominent physical feature, and Cootes Paradise is one of the largest and most significant coastal wetlands of Lake Ontario. Water quality in Hamilton Harbour and Cootes Paradise is the most important factor that currently limits the successful restoration of sustainable, self–reproducing native fish community. In 1987, Hamilton Harbour was officially designated as an Area of Concern (AOC) by the International Joint Commission, pursuant to the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement.

    ArcelorMittal Dofasco Inc. Flat Carbon Steel March 1st, 2018 To Whom It May Concern: Re: ArcelorMittal Dofasco Product Compliance with LEED® Green Building System Requirements – Recycled Content and Regional Materials We confirm that building structures and components made from ArcelorMittal Dofasco flat rolled steel comply with the Recycled Content and Regional Materials requirements outlined under the Materials and Resources key performance category of LEED® rating systems. The details of these specific contributions are outlined below. Recycled Content Recycled steel is an essential raw material for ArcelorMittal Dofasco steelmaking operations, but especially for our electric arc furnace (EAF) steelmaking stream, which uses >85% steel scrap. The sheet steel produced via EAF steelmaking is applied to a wide variety of building products, and uses an average of 24% pre-consumer scrap and 38% post-consumer scrap. These recycled content categories are defined in accordance with the terms of CAN/CSA-ISO 14021, and do not include “home scrap”, which is internally generated scrap steel from steel processing operations. Regional Materials ArcelorMittal Dofasco’s steelmaking operations are located in Hamilton, Ontario, a scrap-rich region of Canada due to the large amount of auto part production, general manufacturing and metal processing that occurs in the area, as well as the high collection rates generated from municipal “blue box” recycling programs. While it is not possible to identify the exact location from which all steel scrap is collected, we can confirm that the steel scrap used in our steelmaking operations is acquired from several recycling facilities located within 5 km of our Hamilton steel mill, which for the purpose of the LEED® green building program, is considered the raw material extraction point.
