Jan 10, 2013 Angela Knight - Genivar 2611 Queensview Drive, Suite 300 Nepean, Ontario K2B 8K2 Attention: Angela Knight Subject: Project Name: Our File No. Information Request Mill of Kintail Bridge Rehabilitation KV/12/72 Subsequent to reviewing the information provided to this office as well as completing a historical file review, it has been determined that no work permit under the Public Lands Act is required from this office. Please note that it is your responsibility to obtain any other permits that may be required under federal, provincial, municipal or conservation authority legislation. Please note that these works do require approval under Conservation Authority legislation. Please contact the Local Conservation Authority if you haven't already done so. Based on the information provided to this office on Dec 19, 2012 it is the understanding of the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) that the project being proposed consists of the following: The replacement of the trusses with concrete girders (as per Schedule ‘A’); The construction of new parapet walls (as per Schedule ‘A’); Partial depth concrete repairs on the substructure (as per Schedule ‘A’); All work will be completed within the municipal road allowance; There will be no in-water work associated with improvements to the Mill of Kintail Bridge Rehabilitation; and During repairs and replacements appropriate erosion and sediment controls will be in place; 1 The following recommended best management practices should be implemented: Avoid filling, dredging/excavation or aquatic vegetation removal in association with the proposed works. Appropriate sediment and erosion control measures (i.e. silt curtain and/or other method as required) should be in place around the perimeter of the work area prior to and during any works to prevent any sediment from spreading to adjacent areas, and these measures should remain in place until all disturbed areas on the work site have been stabilized. There should be no in-water work between March 15th and June 30th of any year, to address concerns relating to fisheries spawning and nursery periods. There shall be no in-water work between October 15th and March 15th of any year, to address concerns related to reptile and amphibian hibernation periods and species at risk. All sediment and erosion control measures should be inspected daily to ensure that they are functioning properly and are maintained and/or upgraded as required. If the sediment and erosion control measures are not functioning properly, no further work should occur until the sediment and/or erosion problem is addressed. Any disruption above the high water mark should be contained and/or stabilized to ensure silt, sand, clay, organic material or any deleterious substances do not enter the water body. No construction wastes should be disposed of within the water body. All disturbed areas at the work site should be stabilized as soon as possible after project completion. The construction should be done during low water and not after a large precipitation event if at all possible. Please contact this office if there are any changes to the proposed work, or if the project as described above does not adequately reflect the details of the proposal. 2 The Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) Kemptville District has carried out a preliminary review of the area in order to identify any potential natural resource and natural heritage values. Please see below for a description of the findings. Natural Heritage Values The Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) Kemptville District has carried out a preliminary review of the area in order to identify any potential natural resource and natural heritage values. There are no known Natural Heritage Features (e.g. Provincially Significant Wetlands, Areas of Natural and Scientific Interest, etc.) identified on or in close proximity to the site. Municipal Official Plans contain additional information related to natural heritage features. Please see the local municipal Official Plan for more information such as specific policies and direction pertaining to activities which may impact natural heritage features. For planning advice or Official Plan interpretation, please contact the local municipality. Where natural values and natural hazards exist (e.g., floodplains), there may be additional approvals and permitting required from the local Conservation Authority. The MNR strongly recommends contacting the local Conservation Authority for further information and approvals. Please see the MNR Kemptville Information Guide (2012) for contact information pertaining to Conservation Authorities located within the Kemptville District area. The Natural Heritage Information Centre (NHIC) can provide additional information and mapping as it pertains to natural heritage features and species at risk. The NHIC website (including mapping tools) is available to all members of the public, for more information please see the attached NHIC Information Sheet. Water Where the site is adjacent to or contains a watercourses or waterbodies, additional considerations apply. If any in-water works are to occur, there are timing restriction periods for which work in water can take place (see below). Appropriate measures should be taken to minimize and mitigate impact on water quality and fish habitat, including: including the installation of sediment and erosion control measures; avoiding removal alteration or covering of substrates used for fish spawning, feeding, over-wintering or nursery areas; and debris control measures should be put in place to manage falling debris (e.g. spalling). A work permit from the MNR may be required pending further details regarding the proposed works. No encroachment on the bed or banks of the waterbody (e.g. abutments, embankments, etc.) is permitted until MNR approval and clearance has been issued. In 3 order for MNR staff to determine when a work permit is required, additional information can include: Detailed drawings (existing and proposed) Location mapping Registered Plan survey Site photographs Public Lands Act Forms - application forms, ownership form and landowner notification form. The MNR does not have any water quality or quantity data available. We recommend that the Ministry of the Environment be contacted for such data along with the local Conservation Authority. For further information regarding fish habitat and protocols, please refer to the following interagency, document, Fish Habitat Referral Protocol for Ontario at: http://www.mnr.gov.ca/264110.pdf Timing restriction periods in MNR Kemptville District*: Warmwater March 15 – June 30 March 15 – July 15 for St. Lawrence River & Ottawa River Coldwater October 1 – May 31 Mixed lakes October 1 – June 30 (Big Rideau & Charleston) * Please note: Additional timing restrictions may apply as it relates to Endangered and Threatened Species, including works in both water and wetland areas. Additional approvals and permits may be required for the proposed works as it relates to the Fisheries Act. Please contact your local Conservation Authority and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans to determine requirements and next steps. Where the Fisheries Act is triggered and habitat compensation, mitigation measures or best management practices are being considered; as the MNR is charged with the management of Provincial fish populations, the MNR requests ongoing involvement in such discussions in order to ensure population conservation. Furthermore, local Conservation Authorities may also have additional approvals for works in and adjacent to water and wetland features. Finally, Transport Canada’s Navigable Waters Protection Division may require review and approval of the proposed project. Please contact these local agencies directly for more information. Timing restrictions apply from October 16 – March 15 to protect at-risk hibernating turtles. If the proposed works are to occur during this time, the MNR recommends fencing off the site in early fall to prevent turtle from hibernating there. Caution should also be taken during the turtle nesting season in June and early July as turtles use embankments and other terrestrial site for nesting. During the active season (April 1 – October 30) the MNR recommends a thorough sweep of the area before works begin to encourage any turtles using the site to move away. Where drainage works are proposed within wetland areas, the MNR is concerned is the impacts to the hydrology and ecology of the wetland, which may have impacts on species and their habitats. For example, changing water levels as a result of drainage works may 4 impact turtles or affecting nesting birds, of which these species may be protected under legislation such as the Endangered Species Act or the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act. Therefore a consideration for direct and indirect impacts to species and their habitats is imperative. Where drainage works occur within the originally approved drainage footprint, as per the Drainage Act, there are no Public Land’s Act requirements from the MNR. However, other MNR legislation may apply including, but not limited to the Endangered Species Act, 2007 Species at Risk With the new Endangered Species Act (ESA, 2007) in effect, it is important to understand which species and habitats exist in the area and the implications of the legislation. A review of the Natural Heritage Information Centre (NHIC), internal records, and aerial photograph interpretation indicate that there is a potential for the following Threatened (THR) and/or Endangered (END) species on the site or in proximity to it: Sensitive Species (END) Bobolink (THR) Flooded Jellyskin (THR) All Endangered and Threatened species receive individual protection under Section 9 of the Endangered Species Act, 2007 (ESA). Species listed below receive both species and general habitat protection under Section 10 of the ESA, 2007. Thus any potential works should consider disturbance of possible important habitat (e.g. nesting sites). Species receiving General Habitat protection: Bobolink (THR) If the proposed activity is known to have an impact on the species mentioned above or any other SAR, a permit under the Endangered Species Act, 2007 (ESA) may be required. It is recommended that MNR Kemptville be contacted prior to any activities being carried out to discuss potential survey and mitigation measures to avoid contravention of the ESA. Habitat has been identified within the project area that appears suitable for one or more species listed by SARO as Special Concern (SC), or one or more Special Concern species has been documented to occur either on the site or nearby. Species listed as Special Concern are not protected under the ESA, 2007. However, please note that some of these species may be protected under the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act. Species of Special Concern for consideration: River Redhorse (SC) Snapping Turtle (SC) If any of these or any other species at risk are discovered throughout the course of the work, and/or should any species at risk or their habitat be potentially impacted by on site activities, MNR should be contacted immediately and operations be modified to avoid 5 any negative impacts to species at risk or their habitat until further direction is provided by MNR. Although this data represents the MNR’s best current available information, it is important to note that a lack of information for a site does not mean that additional features and values are not present. The lack of information for a species does not mean that there are no Species at Risk (SAR) at the location or in the immediate area. The MNR continues to strongly encourage ecological site assessments to determine the potential for SAR occurrences, natural heritage features and values. When a SAR does occur on a site, it is recommended that the proponent contact the MNR for technical advice and to discuss what activities can occur without contravention of the Act. If an activity is proposed that will contravene the Act (such as Section 9 or 10), the proponent must contact the MNR to discuss the potential for a permit (Section 17). For specific questions regarding the Endangered Species Act (2007) or SAR, please contact a district Species at Risk Biologist at [email protected]. For more information regarding the ESA (2007), please see attached ESA Information Sheet. Please note: The advice in this letter may become invalid if: The Committee on the Status of Species at Risk in Ontario (COSSARO) reassesses the status of the above-named species OR adds a species to the SARO List such that the section 9 and/or 10 protection provisions apply to those species. Additional occurrences of species are discovered. Habitat protection comes into force for one of the above-mentioned species through the creation of a habitat regulation.

Ministry of Natural Resources 2012 Kemptville District Endangered Species Act, 2007 & Species At Risk in Ontario Background Endangered Species Act: http://www.e-laws.gov.on.ca/html/statutes/english/elaws_statues-07e06_e.htm Species at Risk in Ontario List: www.mnr.gov.on.ca/en/Business/Species/2ColumnSubPage/246809.html The Endangered Species Act (ESA) 2007 protects both species and habitat. Section 9 of the ESA “prohibits killing, harming, harassing, capturing, possessing, collecting, buying, selling, trading, leasing or transporting species that are listed as threatened, endangered or extirpated”. Section 10 of the ESA, 2007 prohibits damaging or destroying habitat of endangered or threatened species. Protected habitat is either based on general definition in the Act or prescribed through a regulation. The ESA 2007 defines general habitat as an area on which the species depends, directly or indirectly, to carry on its life processes, including reproduction, rearing, hibernation, migration or feeding. It is important to be aware that changes may occur in both species and habitat protection. The ESA applies to listed species on the Species at Risk in Ontario List (SARO). The Committee on the Status of Species in Ontario (COSSARO) meets regularly to evaluate species for listing and/or re-evaluate species already listed. As a result, species’ designations may change that could in turn change the level of protection they receive under the ESA 2007. Also, habitat protection provisions for a species may change e.g. if a species-specific habitat regulation comes into effect. The regulation would establish the area that is protected as habitat for the species. Ministry of Natural Resources 2011 Kemptville District Information with respect to SAR can be found in the online database at the Natural Heritage Information Centre (NHIC) - http://nhic.mnr.gov.on.ca/nhic.cfm . The NHIC compiles, maintains and distributes information on species at risk and updates its information on a regular basis. We encourage you to routinely check the NHIC database to obtain the most up to date SAR information for proposed work locations. However, while the NHIC database is the best available source of data, even when there are no known occurrences documented at a site, there is a possibility that SAR may occur at a proposed work location. All data represents the MNR’s best current available information, it is important to note that a lack of occurrence at a site does not mean that there are no Species at Risk (SAR) at the location. The MNR continues to encourage ecological site assessments to determine the potential for other SAR occurrences. When a SAR does occur on a proposed site, it is recommended that the proponent contact the MNR for technical advice and to discuss what activities can occur without contravention of the Act. If an activity is proposed that will contravene the Act (such as Section 9 or 10), the proponent must contact the MNR to discuss the potential for application of certain permits (Section 17) or agreement (Regulation 242/08).
