EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Lemieux Island Water Purification Plant (WPP), one of the City’s two WWPs, has experienced restricted production capacities due to a unique winter condition brought on by the accumulation of frazil ice in the facility’s Ottawa River intake piping. The reliable delivery of drinking water during cold weather conditions depends upon both WPP’s having un-restricted capacity at their reduced winter operating conditions. Beginning with the winter of 2013, these occasional short term events have changed to longer duration events creating a significant reduction in Lemieux Island WPP drinking water production capacity and requiring more drastic measures to meet the City’s water demands. In recent years, over $2M has been spent in response to frazil ice incidents at Lemieux Island to ensure continued water production to meet the City’s demand. This cost include staff overtime, contracted services and supplies, temporary intake extensions, emergency repair and replacement of treatment process components and installation of a contingency by-pass pumping system. 3 To address this now more significant and recurring situation, a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA) project was initiated in May 2014 to evaluate permanent alternative solutions for improving the intake infrastructure to mitigate the impacts of frazil ice on the Lemieux Island WPP. Of the five alternatives investigated, the preferred solution, Deep Water Intake Beyond Ice Cover was identified as the most reliable option to minimize ice issues and rated highest in terms of technical performance. Capital costs for the recommended alternative, Deep Water Intake Beyond Ice Cover, are estimated to range from $17.2M to $18.5M based on Class D estimates, depending on whether open trenching or tunneling are chosen in the functional design. While Drinking Water Intake Beyond Ice Cover is the most expensive option, it is expected to minimize the risk of frazil ice impacting water production and reduce annual costs to manage, which have been up to $700,000 in recent years. This project has included extensive consultation with various stakeholders and agencies, including a number of aboriginal groups. No concerns about the project have been received. RÉSUMÉ Les capacités de production de l'usine de purification d'eau de l'île Lemieux, une des deux usines municipales de purification d'eau, ont été réduites à cause de conditions hivernales exceptionnelles qui ont entraîné une accumulation de frasil dans le système de canalisation de la prise d'eau de la rivière des Outaouais. La fiabilité de l'approvisionnement en eau potable par température froide repose sur une capacité de production non restreinte dans les deux usines de purification de l'eau durant leur période d'entretien hivernal à régime réduit. À compter de l'hiver 2013, ces incidents météorologiques occasionnels de courte durée ont commencé à se prolonger de sorte que la capacité de production d'eau potable de l'usine de l'île Lemieux a été considérablement réduite et qu'il a fallu prendre des mesures plus radicales pour satisfaire à la demande en eau potable de la Ville. Au cours des dernières années, nous avons investi plus de 2 millions de dollars pour remédier aux incidents liés au frasil à l'usine de l'île Lemieux et pour assurer l'approvisionnement soutenu en eau potable de manière à répondre à la demande de la Ville. Dans ce montant, sont calculés les heures supplémentaires du personnel, les services en sous-traitance et les fournitures, l'installation d'une tuyauterie d'arrivée temporaire, les réparations d'urgence, le remplacement des composantes du procédé 4 de traitement de l'eau et l'installation d'un système de pompage de contournement de réserve. Dans le but faire face à cette situation dorénavant plus sérieuse et récurrente, nous avons entrepris une évaluation environnementale municipale de portée générale en mai 2014 afin d'évaluer des solutions de rechange permanentes qui permettraient d'améliorer le système de prise d'eau et d'atténuer les répercussions du frasil à l'usine de purification de l'eau de l'île Lemieux. Des cinq solutions de rechange étudiées, la prise d’eau en eaux profondes au-delà de la couverture de glace a été privilégiée parce que jugée la plus fiable pour atténuer les problèmes liés au frasil. Elle a également obtenu la meilleure note sur le plan du rendement technique. Les coûts d'immobilisation de l'option recommandée, basés sur une estimation de classe D, à savoir une prise d’eau en eaux profondes au-delà de la couverture de glace, sont de l'ordre de 17,2 à 18,5 millions de dollars, selon que la conception fonctionnelle optera pour le creusage d'une tranchée à ciel ouvert ou d'un tunnel. Même si l'option d'une prise d’eau en eaux profondes au-delà de la couverture de glace est la plus dispendieuse, elle devrait diminuer le risque que le frasil nuise à la production de l'eau et réduire les coûts afférents à la gestion des problèmes occasionnés par le frasil, des coûts ayant atteint les 700 000 dollars au cours des dernières années. Ce projet a fait l'objet de consultations exhaustives auprès de divers intervenants et organismes, y compris de plusieurs groupes autochtones. Aucune préoccupation relative à ce projet n'a été soulevée. BACKGROUND The City of Ottawa (the City) operates two Drinking Water Purification Plants (WPP) to supply drinking water to the City; the Lemieux Island WPP (built in 1931) and the Britannia WPP (built in 1961). The source water for both plants is the Ottawa River. As illustrated in Figure 1, the two plants are connected to the Central Drinking Water Distribution System that supplies water to the residents of Ottawa. Winter Drinking Water Demand and Water Production Capacities While the permitted production capacities for the plants are 400 litres per day (ML/d) at Lemieux and 360 ML/d at Britannia, in winter, the maximum water production capacity is closer to 200ML/d at each plant because of process limitations that are as a result of operating under cold water conditions. Should equipment failures or treatment processes 5 upsets occur at this time, the production capacity of either facility would be further reduced. While drinking water demand is much reduced in the winter period, neither Britannia nor Lemieux Island WPPs are capable of meeting the average daily demand in the winter without the assistance of the other plant. For details of winter demand and winter production capacities, please see Table 1 below. While there is storage capacity in the distribution system (i.e. water tanks, reservoirs), it is limited to less than a full day demand. As such, an extended outage of one plant could result in water shortages and impact the ability to deliver this core service to the City.

Based upon this risk review, full Drinking Water Service delivery during cold weather conditions depends upon both WPP’s having full capacity at their reduced winter operating conditions.

  • A Look Back on Ottawa's Railway Heritage
    Heritage Ottawa NEWSLETTER Dedicated to Preserving Our Built Heritage Winter 2005 Volume 32, No. 1 A look back on Ottawa’s Railway Heritage By David Jeanes ne hundred and fifty years ago on Christmas O Day, 1854, scheduled rail service first began on the Bytown and Prescott railway. The line linked Ottawa to Montreal and the United States via Ogdensburg and a year later to both Montreal and Toronto via Prescott. Without this railway link, Ottawa likely would not have become the capital of Canada and its lumber industry would not have developed into the largest in the world by the end of the nineteenth century. But how much of the architectural and engineering heritage of Ottawa’s railways remains from the early years? Last spring, one of the oldest pieces from that era was destroyed when an 1854 stone arch under an abutment of the old railway bridge from Photo: David Jeanes New Edinburgh was demolished due to concerns CPR 1898 railway bridge over Green’s Creek about the safety of the public pathway which passed beneath it. A bronze plaque commemorating both two attractive stone arch bridges of the same date the first railway and the bridge piers which remain cross Green’s Creek near Highway 417. The O-Train standing in the river will soon be erected at the site still uses a hundred-year-old steel bridge, brought by the National Capital Commission (NCC). here from Magog, Quebec in 1914, over the Rideau Other hundred-year and older railway bridges River at Carleton University. can be found around the city.

  • Reimagining Lemieux Island
    REIMAGINING LEMIEUX ISLAND by Ruamporn Ridthiprasart A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Post Doctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Architecture Carleton University Ottawa, Canada © 2020, Ruamporn Ridthiprasart i ABSTRACT This thesis explores the preservation and adaptive re-use of Ottawa’s Lemieux Island Water Purification Plant, incorporating new programs – biological water purification, aquaponics, water-based recreation, and education. Recently, rising water levels in the Ottawa River have led to flooding and threatened the operations at this plant. Extreme weather conditions, along with the public’s accessibility to new options in water treatment in the future, may mean that the original function of the plant will become obsolete, offering opportunities for the facilities to be repurposed. Based on current scientific information about increasing precipitation and ongoing climate instability, as well as on the existing flood patterns of the Ottawa River, the thesis design incorporates changes to the island’s topography in order to protect the historical buildings that are at lower elevations from flooding. Simultaneously, I propose a utilization of the industrial settling and filtering buildings with large water-holding capacities at higher elevations to test and study methods of bioremediation of water from the Ottawa River. This reimagined filtration plant will supply various other programs within the adapted historical building that include recreation, agriculture, and education. The main water bioremediation method used is Dr. John Todd’s “Living Machine” system, that mimics the cleansing function of natural wetlands. The recreational element of the project includes natural swimming pools with separate water cleansing components.

  • Efficient Travel for the Flâneur
    EFFICIENT TRAVEL FOR THE FLÂNEUR INTERMODAL STATION AND CENTRAL LIBRARY FOR OTTAWA by Boris Ivanov Kourtev A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Architecture Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario ©2016 Boris Ivanov Kourtev ABSTRACT The proposed expansion and long-awaited light rail connection to the Ottawa Macdonald–Cartier International Airport offers the opportunity to create a practical and symbolic transportation node within Canada’s capital city. Overlooking the majestic Ottawa River, Bayview Station occupies an almost barren site, detached from its context and making a subpar connection between the east-west bus and north-south O-Train routes. A proposed Intermodal Station at Bayview will not only unify these lines, but promises to organize a multifaceted social and cultural landscape for persons arriving to the City from afar and for commuting residents, alike. At the shoreline of the Ottawa River, immediately flanking the Central Business District, the axial termination of the Prince of Wales Bridge -- Bayview Station -- becomes a fundamental mediator between Ottawa and Gatineau. The programmatic pairing of Intermodal Station and Central Ottawa Library intertwines the paths associated with, respectively, efficient travel and wandering, opening a space to reflect on the dual nature of urban movement. Figure 01 - Node connecting West, East, North and South ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I hereby give warm thanks to the following people for their continuous support, guidance, and encouragement in both academic and personal level.

  • A SONIFIED ENVIRONMENTAL HISTORY of the CHANGING RIVERSCAPE from the CHAUDIÈRE FALLS to KETTLE and DUCK ISLANDS, 1880 to 1980
    SONGS OF THE OTTAWA: A SONIFIED ENVIRONMENTAL HISTORY OF THE CHANGING RIVERSCAPE FROM THE CHAUDIÈRE FALLS TO KETTLE AND DUCK ISLANDS, 1880 to 1980 by CRISTINA MARIE WOOD A research essay submitted to Carleton University in fulfillment of the requirements for the course HIST 5908, as credit toward the degree of Master of Arts in History – Public History with Specialization in Digital Humanities Department of History Carleton University Ottawa, Canada May 14, 2019 © Copyright, 2019, Cristina Wood ii Abstract “Songs of the Ottawa” is an experiment in the digital data sonification of the Ottawa River’s pasts. This study examines a stretch of river extending from below the Chaudière, Akikodjiwan, or Kana:tso Falls, past the points of confluence with three important waterways – the man-made locks at the Rideau Canal, the tumbling Rideau River falls and the low-lying delta of the Gatineau – to the sandy Kettle and Duck Islands. “Sonifying” the history of the river means to express history to achieve a particular sensual engagement with the past. Sonification is the “visualization” of historical data auditorially, to achieve a particular sensory affect. This project asks readers and listeners to hear uncanny, affective pasts and consider the ways in which storytellers can “de- form” and “re-form” data and sources. The three “songs of the Ottawa” offer a way into the stories of the river’s flows, of commerce and industry extending up and downstream, and of recreation on the water and shores. iii Acknowledgements This project has been generously supported by Carleton University and the Ontario Graduate Scholarship.

At the end of 1854 the Bytown and Prescott Railway came through Gloucester to New Edinburgh and crossed the Rideau River on a 441-foot wooden truss bridge. At the Ottawa bridge abutment a stone arch carried the railway over a riverbank path. The first station was between Dalhousie and Sussex. The “Black Bridge”, (so called to distinguish it from Photo: Ontario Archives I-0005775, 1970, detail. the “White Bridge” near Carleton University), was rebuilt in 1866 and 1923, eventually in steel with King Edward Avenue, stone arched pathway (arrow), and concrete around the piers. previously demolished rail bridge (left), Minto Bridge (right).

  • 1 Champlain Park Community History by Daniel Buckles and Debra Huron Natural
    Champlain Park Community History by Daniel Buckles and Debra Huron Natural History Flooded by the Champlain Sea after the retreat of glaciers of the last Ice Age, the Ottawa River valley has a varied geology (Hogarth, 1962; Champman and Putnam, 1984). The shoreline at what is now Remic Rapids in Ottawa and Deschênes Rapids in Gatineau is a limestone plain with very thin soil known as an alvar (Huggett, 1993; 1995). Innis Point near Shirley’s Bay is also a shoreline alvar. This is a rare ecosystem in Ontario and Quebec with plant associations adapted to extremes of wet and dry. Two major alvar plant associations are Red Cedar-Prickly Ash and Bur Oak-Prickly Ash (Laird, 1995; Catling et. al., 2012). Bur Oak (Quercus macrocarpa) is a species of oak native to the deciduous forest Zone of eastern and midwestern North America. Ottawa is on the northern edge of the bur oak species range. Also known as Burr Oak and the Mossycup White Oak, the tree commonly lives 250 years, and may survive up to 400 years. It is drought- tolerant and fire-resistant because of its thick bark, a feature that accounts for its presence in open-forest savannas. Once established, the Bur Oak tolerates urban pollution (Laird, 1995) and grows faster than most other oak species. “The Champlain Oaks” (Map 1) are a community of healthy, pre-settlement Bur Oaks descended directly from the open forest of the shoreline alvar between Chaudière Falls and Deschênes Rapids. Oaks of this age (50-180 years) in an urban environment are very rare.
