2001-2005 RAP Stakeholder Investments Hamilton Harbour Remedial Action Plan “2001 - 2005 Stakeholder Investments” PROGRESS… P. O. BOX 5050 867 Lakeshore Road Burlington, ON L7R 4A6 Tel: (905) 336-6279 Fax: (905) 336-4906 Email: [email protected] www.hamiltonharbour.ca/rap Public Access Water Quality Toxic Contamination & Fish Wildlife Land Management Using estimates provided by various Bay Area Implementation Team (BAIT) partners, a summary of investments made directly on RAP actions has been compiled. It is estimated prior to 1990, $600 million was spent by industry and government. Between 1990 and 2000, $205 million was spent; with 30% contributed equally from federal and provincial government and the remaining 70% from local government and private sources. In 2001, predictions were another $650 million would be required between 2001 and 2015 to reach delisting – a doubling of the pace of the previous 11 years. 2001-2005 Stakeholder Investments 2001-2005 Legacy Investments Total Investment Total Investment $209.57 M $16.10 M Local $181.11 M Local Local Local $1.10 M 86% Provincial $11.56 M 7% Provincial $0 M Federal $16.90 M Federal $15.00 M Federal 8% Provincial Federal 6% 93% A recent review of investments shows in the five years from 2001 to 2005, $209 million was spent; this confirms the pace of investment is on track with the prediction. In addition to the seven traditional RAP categories, a new and separate category, Legacy Investments, has been created. This is intended to reflect the positive investments being made by stakeholders in the Hamilton Harbour area; actions made possible as a result of improving conditions in the Harbour. As time goes on more and more ventures will fit into this legacy category. 2001-2005 HH RAP Stakeholder Investments - January 20, 2007 Water Quality and Bacterial Contamination Key Actions Included Total Investment $130.07 M Region of Halton – Skyway Wastewater Local Local $129.09 M Treatment Plant Upgrades 99.2% Provincial $0.62 M City of Hamilton – Woodward and Dundas Federal $0.35 M Wastewater Treatment Plant Upgrades City of Hamilton – Combined Sewer Overflow Tanks and Tunnels City of Hamilton – Wastewater Master Planning City of Hamilton – Universal Water Metering Program Provincial 0.5% Cootes Paradise Water Quality Study Federal 0.3% This does not include the Fall 2005 announcement of $35 million federal, $15 million provincial, and $25 million municipal monies to upgrade the City of Hamilton’s wastewater treatment systems; the first instalment of a $330 million Strategic Infrastructure Fund Proposal.

HMCS Haida, Canada’s most famous warship, saw distinguished service with the Royal Canadian Navy in World War II, the Korean conflict and the Cold War. Decommissioned in 1963, she was designated as a national historic site in 1984 because of her role in naval combat and because she is the last of the Tribal class destroyers once used by three navies. THE VISION In 2020, HMCS Haida is managed and pre- sented as a living, operating ship. Visitors enjoy the unique opportunity to explore, discover, experience, and learn about the inner workings of and life aboard a World War II–era naval vessel.

We are inspired by the bravery of our soldiers at Normandy and moved by the words of John McCrae’s "In Flanders Fields." We are amazed at the vision of Louis-Joseph Papineau and Sir Wilfrid Laurier. We are enchanted by the paintings of Emily Carr and the writings of Lucy Maud Montgomery. We look back in awe at the wisdom of Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir George-Étienne Cartier. We are moved to tears of joy by the humour of Stephen Leacock and tears of gratitude for the courage of Tecumseh. We hold in high regard the determination of Emily Murphy and Rev. Josiah Henson to overcome obstacles which stood in the way of their dreams. We give thanks for the work of the Victorian Order of Nurses and those who organ- ized the Underground Railroad. We think of those who suffered and died at Grosse Île in the dream of reaching a new home.
