The Authority has identified the region's river valleys, the Lake Ontario shoreline and the headwater areas of the Oak Ridges interlobate moraine, and the Niagara Escarpment as the major resources to which its programs are applied. Established resource management programs include flood control and water conservation, erosion control, waterfront development, and fish and wildlife management. In implementing these programs, 26~600 acres of land have been acquired and, in addition to their being managed for the conservation functions they perform, they are made available to the community for outdoor and conservation education, recreation and historic sites purposes. Within these comprehensive program guidelines, the Authority has, over the years, reflected the priorities and policies of the partners, the participating municipalities and the Province of Ontario as expressed through the representative Authority members. Since 1957, 61% of the Authority's capital and development budget has been devoted to Water and Related Land Manage- ment, 25% has been devoted to Lake Ontario Shoreline Management, 12% to Conservation and Recreation Land Management and 2% to Outdoor and Conservation Education. The 1980 budget estimates for administration, operations and maintenance, current and capital progr~~s reflect the emphasis on Flood Control and Water Conservation, provide for the management of lands and facilities acquired and developed in connection with this program, and continue the approved Waterfront project at a reduced rate. FOlli~AT OF PRESENTATION These budget estimates are in accordance with the requirementB of The Ministry of Natural Resources "Policy, Procedure and Information Manual for Conservation Authorities". There are five major types of Provincial grants available through the Ministry of Natural Resources to Conservation Authorities:- 1) Administration 4) Special Projects and Programs 2) Water & Related Land Management 5) Supplementary Grants (not applicable to M.T.R.C.A.) 3) Conservation & Recreation Land Management 2. AUTHORITY PROGRAMS The Authority Programs in these budget estimates are in seven basic categories:- 1) Administration 4) Conservation & Recreation Land Management Administration a) Conservation Areas - Support b) Conservation Areas - Development 2) Operations & Maintenance c) Cons. Area Information & Interp. Program d) Rent & Utility Services a) General Operations e) Taxes and Insurance b) Conservation Area Operations c) Information & Education Operations 5) Waterfront d) Black Creek Pioneer Village Operations Waterfront - Support 3) Water & Related Land Management a) Operations & Maintenance of Water Control Structures 6) Special Projects b) Community Relations - Support Waterfront Plan c) Community Relations - Development d) Taxes and Insurance 7) Historic Sites e) Interim Water & Related Land Management - Current & Capital f) Interim Water & Related Land Management - Keating Channel Historic Sites Development Expenditures on administration, operations and maintenance and current programs comprise the Authority's General Levy on all participating municipalities apportioned on the basis of equalized assessment as supplied by the Province of Ontario. The basis of equalized assessment for 1980 has been changed in order to conform with the policy adopted by the Ministry of Natural Resources regarding "Changes to Provincial Equalization Factors (Provincial Equalized Assessment) and Related Strategy to Reduce the Impact". Expenditures on capital programs are financed as a Capital Levy on municipalities based on levies designated in the specific projects. INTERIM WATER & RELATED LAND MANAGEMENT PROJECT The year 1980 is the second year of the three year Interim Water and Related Land Management Project. This project enables the Authority to establish and undertake a program designed to conserve, restore, develop and manage the natural resources of the watersheds within the area of its jurisdiction, in accordance with the Water and Related Land Management Plan. It is the intention that this Project, together with ongoing works which were initiated under earlier approved projects, shall form a single, consolidated Project. 3. The Provincial Cash Flow, which has been authorized for Water and Related Land Management work in 1980, has required a reduc- tion in this Project. Amendments have been made to the budget accordingly. WATERFRONT PROJECT In 1977, the Authority commenced the second phase of the Waterfront Project. Originally this phase proposed expenditures of $4,400,000 per year over the five year period 1977-1981. Expenditures for 1977 were $2,876,482 and in 1978 $11,486,993 (including $8,500,000 for the acquisition of the Guild Inn). Metropolitan Toronto agreed to increase their share of the levy for this project by $496,000 each year for 1979, 1980 and 1981. Due to cash flow limitations from the Province, the $496,000 matching grant was not available in 1979. The 1980 budget provides for estimated expenditures of $2,138,250 plus $992,000 for the supplementary pro~ect. A levy amount of $185,408 in 1980 is allocated to match expenditures and Provincial Grants for the years 1977, 1978 and 1979. The total amount being levied in 1930 is within the project authorization as approved by the Ontario Municipal Board. THE 1980 LEVY The apportionment of the 1980 municipal levies is based on figures supplied by the Province of Ontario and adjusted in accor- dance with the policy adopted by the Ministry of Natural Resources regarding "Changes to Provincial Equalization Factors (Provincial Equalized Assessment) and Related Strategy to Reduce the Impact". In accordance with the policy adopted by the Authority, the Regional Municipalities of Durham, Peel and York will be levied an amount equal to 100% of the 1979 taxes paid by the Authority for revenue producing conservation areas within those munici- palities. Within Metropolitan Toronto, Authority lands are not subject to taxation. PROVINCIAL FUNDING" The Provincial grant structure used in these estimates is:- Administration 50% Water and Related Land Management 55% Conservation and Recreation Land Management 50% Waterfront Plan 50% The Province of Ontario has established the fOllowing level of funding for The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority for the 1980 fiscal year. Comparative figures for 1979 are also shown. , 4. 1979 1980 Increase Budget Budget (Decrease) (1) Administration $ 638,500 $ 676,810 $ 38,310 (2) Water & Related Land Management a) General $ 383,350 $ 463,958 $ 80,608 b) Interim Project 1,901,500 1,817,019* (84,481 ) c) WC-58 - Don River 49,845 - (49,845) d) Keating Channel - 110,000 110,000 e) Additional for Waterfront Shoreline Management - 165,125 165,125 $ 2,334,695 $ 2,556,102 $ 221,407 (3) Conservation & Recreation Land Management $ 233,000 $ 250,980 $ 17,980 ( 4) Special Projects - Waterfront (see also 2(e) above) $ 1,400,000 $ 1,400,000 $ - $ 4,606,195 $ 4,883,892 $ 277,697 *Note: This figure includes an additional $50,000 for Flood Plain and Conservation Land acquisition to be funded from M.N.R. 1979 funds. 1980 5.

B-34 SCHEDULE nA" 1980 r1ARKET I NG PLAN FOR BLACK CREEK PIONEER VILLAGE, KORTRIGHT CENTRE FOR CONSERVATION AND CONSERVATION AREAS INTRODUCTION The three major revenue-generating activities of The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority are: Black Creek Pioneer Vil1age~ the'Kortright Centre for Conservation (because of its newness, is not yet a substantial revenue-producer, but its potential is enormous)~ and the Authority's Conservation Areas. . Throughout the past two decades, both Black Creek Pioneer Village and the various Conservation Areas have enjoyed noteworthy success in attracting visitors, the numbers varying from year-to-year due to factors such as the weather, alternative attractions, and the measure of publicity accorded to each. - For the most part, the Metropolitan Toronto ~egion and its citizens have been well served by these facilities and their use has earned the appreciation of municipal and provincial governments, school boards, farmers, and the general public. Now the Authority faces a number of factors that can have an important bearing, whether attendances and, therefore, revenues from Black Creek Pioneer Village, the Kortright Centre, or the Conservation Areas are to diminish, remain at current levels, or increase. Some of these factors are: 1- A large proportion of the public in this area has visited Black Creek Pioneer Village during the past two decades. A great many of these persons now feel, "I've seen it, there's no need to go again", not being aware of the expansion and the many changes and additions. 2. Despite the efforts of the Authority and its members to publicize them, the public is not generally aware of the variety of attractions between Conservation Areas and, as B-35 - 2 - this is the case with alack Creek Pioneer Village, a whole new generation now needs to be made cognizant of the existence of these recreational and educational facilities. 3. Kortright Centre for Conservation, as mentioned earlier, is still unfamiliar to the majority of region citizens. As this unique facility develops and its special programs and attractions are brought non streamn, extra effort will be required to see that they become known to the public. , , 4. The Metropolitan Toronto area is providing a tremendous number of both public and commercial attractions, and more are coming into being each year (eg. the new Canada's Wonderland, the 320-acre park ~cheduled to open in the spring of 1981). At the same time as these new attendance influences have been making them- selves evident (all competing for time and dollars, but some are complementary), t~e overall Information activities of the Authority have been expanded greatly in scope, as well as volume of output. This has resulted in a.reduction of utilizing the various promotional techniques available to the advantage of Black Creek Pioneer Village and the Conservation Areas. This has been necessitated by policy commitments to: a) improve the public's understanding of the Authority's basic water management functionr b) increase the flow of communication to employees and to Authority membersJ c) concentrate on improving and increasing media relations, d) television promotions, brochures, and pub~ications. As a result of this expanded Information effort, the staff of the Information section has neither the additional time, nor the budget to provide a concen- trated Marketing/Information Program that will meet the current and future needs of the three revenue-producing activities - Black Creek Pioneer Village, the Kortright Centre for Conservation and the Conservation Areas. B-36 - 3 - The 1979 Community Relations Program makes provision for promoting these revenue-generating operations of the Authority, using a broad range of communication tools such as press, radio and television releases, brochures, films and photography, special events, staff interviews, employee and member publications, watershed tours, seminars, the Foundation, etc. Providing a balance with the publicizing of other meritorious projects and activities of the Authority in an expanded program, however, results in a lessening of intensity for this portion of the Community Relations Program, as well as placing additional workload on a staff that has not increased in size. In view of all of the foregoing, it is recommended that a separate Marketing/ Information Program be. introduced for the three revenue-generating activities mentioned above. It is our belief that such a program can effectively maintain or increase attendance and use of these special conservation recreation facilities. THE PROGRAM Policy It is the policy of the Authority: - to try to derive the maximum revenue possible from the operation of Black Creek Pioneer Village, the Kortright Centre for Conservation, and the Conservation Areas, in keeping with its responsibility to make these facilities available to the widest possible segment of the public, at reasonable cost. - to encourage public participation in the programs of these projects, so as to further educate people regarding the importance of conservation of renewable natural resources. - to provide members and staff with a flow of information that will keep them abreast of plans and actions regarding the projects in question. B-37 - 4 - - to communicate regularly with area and regional munici- palities, the provincial government, and region school boards on the activities in progress at Black Creek Pioneer Village, the Kortright Centre for Conservation, and the Conservation Areas. Objectives The objectives of the propos~d program are to: 1. Maintain or increase attendance/revenue through an intensified "marketingn of the special attractions . offered to the public at the Village, the Kortright Centre, and at each of the Conservation Areas. 2. Generate re-visits, by citizens and groups, by way of a con- tinual updating of information th~ough the media, audio-visual presentations, and in brochures and other publications. Program Details A written program and action chart, closely coordinated with the Authority's overall Community Relations Program, has been developed to meet the objectives listed above. The program is designed to relate to the customer's n~eds and desires by using the effective tools of communications,' distribution. and pricing (discount), to inform and motivate the customer. Techniques include: - news releases for press and radio and television stations, which reflect not only current activities at the Village, Kortright Centre, and the Conservation Areas. but also highlight changes that have taken place in the Village (eg. new buildings, displays, and demonstrations), new facilities, attractions, and amenities at Conservation . Areas (eg. showshoeing, ski rentals and instruction, B-38 - 5 - canoe program, and camping sites), and the introduction of special nature and scientific demonstrations at Kortright. - feature articles, dealing with some of the unusual and dedicated specialists employed by the Authority, will be supplied to the press, or suggested for possible use. - special events will be announced to the media, well in advance of their taking place, and follow-up coverage will be provided. - the availability of members and staff for radio and television interviews and group lectures will be made known to the media. - brochures, posters, flyers, and pamphlets describing important projects, special events, education programs, and public participation activities will be proposed and drafted for production by the Authority's Information Section. - the Information Section will be kept advised of plans or actions of interest to all employees of the Authority for inclusion in employee publications. - exhibits, displays, and demonstrations - assistance will be given in publicizing events such as conservation-related displays in shopping malls, at fairs, etc., where display material has been provided by, or with the help.of one of the Authority's revenue-producing agencies. The Program and The Customer . The most successful way we can interest people in using our facilities is to make them ~ to participate in what we are offering. To do this, we must market Black Creek Pioneer Village, the Kortright Centre for Conservation, and the Conservation Areas, in an enjoyable, healthy, and B-39 . - 6 - participative manner. The learning is voluntary and the experience must be reasonable, entertaining and, in a majority of cases, indelible. There is also a serious commercial aspect to the marketing of our facilities which cannot be overlooked. If the work of the Authority is to continue and expand, it must give evidence of financial responsibility to its supporting agencies or partners. Facilities such as Black Creek, Kortright, and the Conservation Areas have a need to generate revenue,as well as visitor use, if they are to retain the empathy of their supporters. The successful marketing of our resources to the public becomes, then, a very important goal from an income p~int of view as well. 0 In developing short (1980-81) and long-range (Watershed Plan 1982) promotion plans for Black Creek Pioneer Village, the Kortright Centre for Conservation, and the Conservation Areas, consideration was given to the alternatives of: - (a) each having its own, individual p~ogram and marketing budget; (b) an integrated program of mutual benefit to each of the three project areas and, with a'broad budget to cover the single program, each section contributing to it on a set percentage basis. It is our conclusion that separate programs and budgets, as in alter~ative (a), would be inefficient, wasteful and, in many areas, repetitive as to both content and audiences. Alternative (b), on the other hand. could be administered for all by one group. The integrated marketing programs would be easier to develop equitably and the budget would be more easily controlled and disbursed in an accountable fashion. Some important timely trends that were considered when developing this Marketing Proposal are noted here: - The average work week has been shrinking since 1950 and there's every indication of a continuation of thia trend. B-40 - 7 - - '. with the implication of fewer hours worked is more time available for non-work activities. Some people spend their extra hours on leisure and recreation. (Woods, Gordon & Co.) - Over 75% of Canada's population now lives in urban centres. By the late 1980's, over half of Canada's population is expected to be living in the three major established Metropolitan areas - Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal.

The Tola' Week' The Leisure Week ----...--------..--------...---....--------..----.......---...--..---- Marketing Detail After consultation with the division heads, responsible for the operation and administration of Black Creek Pioneer Village, the Kortright Centre for Conservation, and the Conservation Areas, it was overwhelmingly decided that a professional marketing study was necessary to look at today's customer and at our saleable or marketable products. Woods, Gordon & Company, Marketing Consultants and well recognized firm in dealing with marketing research, is interested in reviewing and making recommendations on our proposal, while working closely with the staff, with B-41 - 8 - the financial responsibility being shared equally between the three programs. The estimated cost is $3.000.00. (NOTE: Canada's Wonderland marketing plan was developed by Woods, Gordon' Co.) As noted earlier, we are developing a short range or partial program (1980), with 1981 seeing an expanded program, and the 1982 full program, as identified in the Watershed Plan. 1980 tmRKETING PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION AND COSTS Increase the use of rev.enue-generating facilities, through greater awareness of available opportunities.

Marketing Plan .................................................. 1,000.00 $ 5,815.00 The Authority's objectives in developing a Marketing/Information Program for its revenue-generating facilities (Black Creek Pioneer Village, Kortright Centre for Conservation, and the Conservation Areas) are to create public awareness of the opportunities for public use; to maintain or increase attend- ance and, therefore, revenues at these sites; and to illustrate, to the public, responsible conservation land management practices. B-44 - 11 - ~ - It is recommended that the Marketing/Information Program be introduced on a trial basis for the year 1980 and that a part-time, experienced, freelance public relations professional be engaged to carry out the duties. The position would be the direct responsibility of the Information Section and the employee would be based at the Authority Head Office. Remuneration would be in the area of $8,000.00 for 1980. A part-time, experienced, secretary-typist, or a junior, secretary-typist would also be required for the Marketing/Information operation. This employee, who would also be based at 5 Shoreham Drive, would carry out the clerical duties as required by the program. Salary for this staff position would be approximately $4,500.00 for 1980. Budget Funds for the Marketing/Information program would be provided by the three benefiting operations - Black Creek Pioneer Village, Kortright Centre for Conservation and Conservation Are~s. Each would contribute $lO,OOO for 1980, from the operations and maintenance budget, for a total budget of $30,000. This amount would provide for the retainer for the freelance public relations person and the secretary-typist, as well as for operating expenditures. The budget would be administered by the Information and Education Division.

R. G. Henderson K. G. Higgs Chairman Secretary-Treasurer 1980.03.12 /j1 B-58 SCHEDULE nBn TO: The Chairman and Members of the Executive Committee, M.T.R.C.A. Meeting #3/80 wednesday-March-19-1980 FROM: Mr. W.A. McLean, Director, Planning and policy RE: THE PLANNING ACT - A DRAFT FOR PUBLIC COMMENT The Authority is in receipt of the above proposed draft legislation and a request for comment from the Minister of Housing. Submissions are to be made by March 31st, 1980. A summary of the proposed legislation, as prepared by the Ministry of Housing, was provided for your information at Meeting #2/80 of the Executive Committee. The major items of interest to the Authority have been summarized as follows: (A) Provisions of the Draft Legislation The draft legislation includes provision: i) to define matters of provincial interest which the Minister .will have regard for" such as "the protection of the natural environment and the management of natural resources" and nthe protection of features of significant natural, architectural, historical, or archaeological interest." ii) for the Minister of Housing (alone or in conjunction with another Minister) to issue policy statements on planning matters of provincial interest. These will fall between a regulation, which has the force of law, and a guideline, which is only advisory. The approving authority must "have regard to. the contents of these statements. iii) for provincial ministries and public agencies to consult with municipalities and to take into account municipal planning policies prior to carrying out any public undertakings that may affect the municipality(ies). iv) for mandatory referral of official plan matters to the O.M.B. by the Minister where a request is made by a qualified agency or individual within 28 days of the adoption of the plan by the municipal council. v) for the Minister to request a municipality to incorporate matters of provincial interest into an official plan and to amend the plan if the municipality fails to comply within a specified time period. vi) for official plans to place greater emphasis on providing guidance primarily for the physical development of a municipality. vii) for the ministerial approval of official plan amendments to be waived if a provincial interest is not affected. viii) for by-laws and public works to "generally conformn to the official plan rather than "to conform" as is now the case. ix) for all affected persons to be notified before a municipality can adopt an official plan or official plan amendment. Notification may be given to specific provincial and local agencies but is not mandatory. x) for council to submit proof of public and agency involvement when submitting an adopted official plan to the approval authority. xiI for the O.M.B.'s decision on an official plan or amendment referral to be final unless the Minister has previously identified a matter of provincial significance. xii) for a municipality to zone land for public purposes for a period of three years when a draft plan of subdivision or an amendment to a zoning by-law is approved. This is conditional on the municipality paying to the owner an amount equal to 10% of the value of the land as of the day before granting of the draft approval or the passing of the zoning by-law. B-59 THE PLANNING ACT - A DRAFT FOR PUBLIC COMMENT PAGE 2 xiii) for a single hearing to consider both planning and environmental matters where a private undertaking is subject to The Environmental Assessment Act. xiv) for the Lieutenant Governor in Council to make regulations to implement the planning process including "the persons and agencies that are to be given notice." (B) Comment on Draft Legislation The Authority has submitted comments on background studies to the preparation of the draft legislation, in particular to the Planning Act Review Committee (Comay Committee). The concerns identified were principally that provision be made for the inclusion of natural resource management concerns in the planning process and, specifically, that the Authority be enabled to review and comment on planning proposals which have potential impact on Authority policies and programs. Staff of the Authority have reviewed the draft Act and requested an opinion from Gardiner, Roberts, Barristers and Solicitors with regard to the implications of the proposed legislation on the Authority's participation in the planning process. The following is submitted for your consideration. 1. Provincial Interest (Sections 2 & 3) It is unclear how the general definition of "provincial interest" (S.2) relates to the proposed provincial policy statements (5.3). In particular, it is not clear whether the Authority's specific resource management concerns (flood control, erosion control, storm water management, shoreline management, etc.) are considered to be of "provincial interest" and, if so, whether a provincial policy statement must, therefore, be issued to address each of these matters before the Minister of Housing will ensure that planning proposals recognize and incorporate such concerns. The Authority has endeavoured to establish an effective working relationship with its member municipalities and the Ministry of Housing with respect to the incorporation of Authority concerns at all levels of the planning process. At such time as a revised Planning Act is finalized, it would be our hope that this relationship would continue. In preparing a Watershed Plan for its area of jurisdiction and in obtaining municipal and provincial approval of such a plan, it would seem reasonable that the Authority should be enabled to review and comment upon all planning proposals which may impact on the policies and programs of the Plan. The status of such a Watershed Plan is not dealt with by the draft Act and it is, therefore, not clear whether it could be considered as a clarification of "provincial interest" within the Authority's area of jurisdiction. It has been pointed out by the Authority solicitors that the draft Act does not contain provis- ion for rotification regaxdirxJ provincial policy statements and that the Minister of Housing consider formalizing this process. It has been suggested that such policy statements should be: (a) published in the Ontario Gazetter (b) referenced and held by the Ministerr (c) lodged with the Clerk of all affected municipalities or with the appropriate Ministry of the Crown; and (d) forwarded directly to those agencies specifically affected by the policy statement. In the last instance, clarification is also required by the Authority as to the status of oonservationauthorities as agencies which must have regard to provincial policy statements. 2. Development Standards (Section 69) In November 1979, the Cabinet endorsed recommendations on flood plain management criteria prepared jointly by the Ministries of Natural Resources and Housing. In part, these policies include that: B-60 THE PLANNING ACT - A DRAFT FOR PUBLIC COMMENT PAGE 3 "THE CONSERVATION AUTHORITIES CONTINUE TO ADMINISTER FILL AND CONSTRUCTION REGULATIONS, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CONSERVATION AUTHORITIES ACT, CONSTRUCTION REGULATIONS MADE PURSUANT TO SECTION 27(1) (c) OF THE CONSERVATION AUTHORITIES ACT BE RESCINDED FOR THOSE AREAS WHERE A MUNICIPALITY HAS ADOPTED OFFICIAL PLAN POLICIES AND ZONING BY-LAWS WHICH COMPLY WITH THE OBJECTIVES OF FLOOD PLAIN MANAGEMENT, AND ACCORD WITH THE PROCEDURAL POLICIES ESTABLISHED BY THE CONSERVATION AUTHORITY AND THE MINISTRIES OF NATURAL RESOURCES AND HOUSING." It is possible that this statement may be considered a provincial policy statement under the draft Act. If this is the case, the provisions of Section 69 regarding Development Standards, could be used to establish guidelines for official plans and zoning by-laws to implement flood plain management objectives. It would, therefore, be essential for the Authority to be involved in the development of such planning statements to ensure their compliance with overall watershed management objectives. If this is a possible use of this section of the draft Act, there should be established a means of ensuring Authority input into the formulation of development standards. 3. Official Plans (Sections l(h) and 16) The narrowing of the purpose of an "official plan" to deal largely with physical development requires some clarification. As pointed out in discussing the term "provincial interest", it is not clear whether the "environmental matters" addressed by the official plan will be specific to the Authority's resource management responsibilities as contained in its Watershed Plan. In particular, as pointed out in the discussion of Development Standards, the need to clearly define policies with respect to flood plain lands should be an important part of the official plan process and should involve Authority input. 4. Circulation of Planning rropos"l~ ~= ~;encics (Sections l7(2)(b), 34(17) (b), 45(4) and 54(4) The draft Act addresses the matter of notification of agencies in four separate areas of the draft act and in different ways. . official plans and official plan amendments - circulation to conservation authorities is ndiscretionary" not "Mandatory" and, therefore, dependent upon notification by the circulating authority. . zoning by-laws and amendments - will remain as at present and, therefore, circulation to authorities is mandatory. . minor variance - no indication in draft act as to circulation procedure. The procedure for circulation, in each instance, is to be established by regulation to the Act. The Authority, in 1977, adopted and circulated the following resolution, that: " (1) All area municipalities within the Authority'S juriSdiction be requested to circulate to the Authority, Official Plan Amendment applications and draft Amendments, implementing zoning by-laws and rezoning by-laws, at the processing stage, in order to include Authority interests prior to Council approval, (2) The Ministry of Housing or the Regional Municipality, where the Region has been delegated the authority to approve, circulate plans of subdivision to the Authority prior to draft approval, in order to include conditions necessary to protect Authority interestsr (3) In commenting to the Regional Municipality, the area municipality, the Ministry of Natural Resources or the Ministry B-61 THE PLANNING ACT - A DRAFT FOR PUBLIC COMMENT PAGE 4 of HOusing, the Authority staff ensure that all the preceding are made aware of Authority concernsr (4) The Authority staff be directed to include in their review of the Plan for Flood Control and Water Conservation a study of storm water management requirements with respect to broad performance standardsJ (5) The Authority staff be directed to discuss with representatives of the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Ministry of the Environment the coordination of Ministry concerns with Authority commentsr (6) The Ministry of Housing be advised that Official Plans and Official Plan Amendments currently in the approval process should include policy statements to require that storm water management studies be carried out prior to development in order to assess the impact of proposals on downstream flooding and erosion." This resolution arose as a result of discussions between the Authority and' its member municipalities and was subsequently endorsed by the municipalities and has served to formalize the existing relationship between Authority and municipal planning activities. It would be of considerable concern if the revised Act did not enable the Authority to continue to work closely with its member municipalities at all stages of the planning process. 5. Waiver of Approval of Official Plan Amendments (Section 21 (1)) This section sets out the right of the Minister of Housing to waive the requirement for approval of official plan amendments if provincial interest is not adversely affected. As stated earlier the status of Authn~ity pnlir.y and programs is not clear within the discussion of "provincial interestn and, therefore, there is some concern that the ability of the Authority to ensure its interest may be in question. 6. Land Reserved for Public Purposes (Section 41) The Authority, in implementing its resource management programs, may acquire land when such land is part of a plan of subdivision. These laRds are generally not suitable for development. It is not clear whether the provisions of Section 41, dealing with lands for public purposes, are intended to include the type of lands which conservation authorities acquire. If it is the intent of the draft Act to include such lands, the value of these lands should reflect the limited uses which could be permitted. 7. Subdivision Control (Section 50(3)(c) and (5)(b)) The provisions of the draft Act allow for exemptions from subdivision control and part lot control where: -the land or any use of or right therein is being acquired or disposed of by Her Majesty in right of Canada, Her Majesty in right of Ontario, Ontario Hydro or by any municipality, metropolitan municipality, regional municipality. district municipality or county." Since Authority land acquisition requires municipal and provincial project approval and funding, it would appear appropriate that conservation authorities also be exempted from the requirements of this section. 8. Plans of Subdivision (Section 52) In commenting on Plans of Subdivision, the Authority identifies the lands which it has determined as not suitable for development. These lands are generally set aside for acquisition and may provide certain passive open space opportunities to the community. Because of their nature. however. they are usually unsuited for intensive recreation use and should not form B-62 THE PLANNING ACT - A DRAFT FOR PUBLIC COMMENT PAGE 5 part of the dedication for park purposes. It is not clear whether such lands could be conveyed to the Authority in addition to the lands required for municipal park or public recreation purposes. 9. Secondary Plans The draft Act contains no provisions specific to the preparation and approval of Secondary Plans (or Development Plans). This level of planning is utilized by the Authority's member municipalities to refine upon the general policy statements of the official plan prior to the consideration of specific plans of subdivision. This level of planning is of particular interest to the Authority in that certain resource management concerns, such as storm water management, can be best dealt with at this stage. There is need for the draft Act to clarify the status of Secondary Plans and to establish procedures for their preparation and approval. RECOMMENDATION: IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT the staff report on nThe Planning Act - a Draft for Public Conunent", together with the comment set forth below, be received and forwarded to the Minister of Housing for consideration: (a) THAT, where a conservation authority has adopted and received municipal and provincial approval for a Watershed Plan for its area of jurisdiction, the plans and policies of the authority be considered as representing a provincial interest in the area~ (b) THAT the Minister of Housing clarify the way in which "provincial interest" in the planning process is to be defined and whether a provincial policy statement must be in circulation prior to any issue being recognized as a "provincial interest" ~ (c) THAT the Minister clarify the status of conservation authority programs and policies within the context of the term nprovincial interest"~ (d) THAT ~Lo~lslon be made in the Act for notification regarding provincial policy statements~ (e) THAT the Minister clarify the status of conservation authorities in connection with the requirement to have regard for provincial policy statementsr (f) THAT if development standards are to be established by the Minister, under Section 69, with regard to flood plain management, conservation authorities be directly involved and their approval required~ (g) THAT the regulations to the Act defining agency participation in the plan review process enable the Authority to continue to work closely with its member municipalities on the basis of its adopted programs and policies for resource management~ (h) THAT conservation authorities be added to the group exemptions stated in Sections 50 (3) (c) and 50(5) (b) ~ (i) THAT the Minister clarify the status of Secondary Plans and established procedures for their preparation and approval. - 1980.03.13.

PRIVATE LANDOWNER ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS This spring, over 100 private landowners will be involved in assistance pro- grams. Approximately 4,600 farm trees and 5,000 shrubs will be planted under the Farm Tree and Shrub Program and 116,250 seedling trees will be planted under the Private Reforestation Assistance Program. .. ./cont'd B-l05 CLMD PROGRr:SS REPORT PAGE -2 . One Conservation Plan has been completed to date and four remain on file. Twenty-eight Conservation Plans have been prepared since the beginning of the program. Ten private tree spade rentals are on file for this spring and the Authority tree spade will also be utilized in the landscape projects scheduled for 1980. Site visits have been carried out for private landowners regarding pond construction, stream improvement and the planting assistance programs. To date, 20 site visits have been carried out as well as 5 for Authority land farm rentals. A stream improvement display was prepared to promote the Authority fish habitat and sediment control projects. Development has been proceeding with the establishment of the Conservation Services' Workshop and the relocation of the Authority nursery. CONSERVATION AREAS OPERATIONS During the winter periOd, 9 Conservation Areas were in operation for rec- reation activities. Due to the lack of snow, little activity was possible until the middle of February. The Albion Hills and Bruce's Mill Ski Programs operated on only four weekends from mid February to mid March under fair snow conditions at best. School bookings had increased slightly over the previous year but the majority were cancelled. This part of the program did operate at capacity during the first two weeks of March. Only Heart Lake and Cold Creek were used at levels approaching the previous year. Ice conditions at Heart Lake were the best in many years and this attracted considerable use. The lack of snow also resulted in above average use of the Cold Creek Range facilities. The low use of the Areas did peulit thl:: t:ltaff to complete more than the usual amount of general maintenance. All Areas did considerable repair and refinishing of picnic tables, outhouses, buildings and other equipment. The Albion Hills Chalet interior was repainted and the tables and chairs were refinished. The interior of the campground office has been finished, . ready for use at the beginning of the season. The staff also completed woodlot management and have on hand firewood for the camping program as well as a supply of cedar fence posts. The annual delivery of 45,000 rainbow trout fry have been received at the Glen Haffy hatchery. The Heart Lake boat docks have been rebuilt and will provide a much improved facility for future operation. The Cold Creek staff, during this period, have been occupied with completing the interior of the Trap Range Control Building as well as prefabing a new gatehouse Lor erection on site this spring. The annual supply of resale supplies for the range operation have also been received. At Bruce's Mill, the staff, in preparing the annual maple syrup demonstration, have made improvements to the old fashioned and Indian method displays. The Greenwood/Claremont staff have constructed new entrance gates for the Claremont Areas as well as a number of gates for use within the two areas. They have also carried out fencing repairs and other maintenance in the Glen Major properties. The Petticoat Creek staff have completed the annual inventories in all Conservation Areas as well as carrying out maintenance on waterfront properties and Petticoat Creek buildings. In preparation for the start of the canoe program at Claireville, promotional brochures and flyers have been prepared and distrubuted to schools in the watershed and at Canoe Ontario's display at the Sportsman's Show. An additional 8 canoes and associated accessories have been obtained to accommodate larger group and public use of the program. . . . / con t ' d B-106 CLMD PBOGRESS REPORT PAGE -3 . Division staff have been involved in promotion of activities and programs. Included in this have been radio interviews (CFRB, CHIN), lectures on pro- gram activities to East York Parks and Recreation Department, Centennial College Recreation Leadership Course and Peel Board of Education Physical Education Teachers Course. The fOllowing table compares Conservation Area attendance during this period with the previous year. Attendance has decreased 46,295 or 51.2'. 1980 1979 Albion Hills 10,091 36,294 Boyd 5,692 6,698 Bruce's Mill 16,305 24,678 C1aireville 1,547 2 , 879 Claremont 400 1,852 Cold Creek 3,479 5,809 Greenwood 1,024 1,969 Heart Lake 4,121 4,297 Pa1grave 1,384 5 , 89 8 44 , 0 79 90,374 FINANCIAL STATEMENT, JANUARY - MARCH, 1980 YR.

Expenditures during this period are also lower than anticipated due to seasonal staff not being employed for the planned time period. Through careful expenditure control and with reasonably normal manner activity both expenditures and revenues will be within budget forecasts. In the Conservation Services programs, only 11' of the private landowner assistance programs budget has been spent to date and programs are now under- way. As programs are completed, revenue estimates will be met. /lp 1980.04.23. B-I07 . TO: The C1la; rman and Members of the Executive Committee, M.T.R.C.A.

Authority staff held lengthy meetings with the lawyers and consultants in preparation for this date and prepared documentation, maps and figures for presentation. HUMBER BAY WEST Provincial approval has been received for the design of site servicing, roads and parking, landscaping, launching ramp relocation, and Mimico Creek channelization by Johnson Sustronk Weinstein & Associates. Detailed design for site servicing is underway for tendering by the end of April. Authority staff have undertaken rip rapping on the interior shoreline. This shoreline protection is now almost complete. HUMBER BAY EAST The Land Management Division will be doing all remaining planting as soon as weather permits to a total budget of $75,000. The remaining topsoiling and turf establishment will be undertaken by Waterfront staff. The pond is now operational. The pumping station is being checked by Metro Parks, JSW and the Authority. M. A. Butt Construction's work as set out in Structures Contract is approximately 95' complete. The roads and parking contract went to tender on March 11, 1980, and Provincial approval has been requested to award the Paving Contract to Graham Brothers Construction Limited, the lowest tenderer. It may be possible to arrange an official opening in conjunction with the tournament to be hosted by the Toronto Anglers & Hunters Association in August 1980. An official opening committee has been formed to finalize the arrangements. WESTERN BEACHES Stafford-Haensli has submitted a draft final ~eport and detailed site plans for final comment by the Authority.

Future land filling is dependant on dredging in the northwesterly corner of the basin. The Toronto Harbour Commissioners are finalizing a scheme to dewater the area to allow for grading of the area in the dry. Landfi1ling along the breakwater to Point 8 will commence as soon as weather permits. Armouring of Point 8 may be undertaken by the Federal government, although no firm commitment has been made. A letter has been sent to Scarborough M.P.'s asking them to secure the funding necessary to complete this project. The Cathedral Bluffs Yacht Club plans to construct approximately 800 feet of steel sheet piling along the northeast side of the island. The Authority has approved a contribution of $30 per linear foot in lieu of rip rapping. Provincial approval has been requested. The Toronto Harbour Commissioners have prepared a design for entrance improvements to the launching ramp basin. The Boating Federation is to finalize plans for the division of the island between the member boat clubs as soon as possible. AQUATIC PARK The Authority's involvement in Aquatic Park in regard to the Resolution of Main Issues has been forwarded to Metro and the Province for consideration. It appears that the proposal is supp6rted by Metro but there may be some delay in Provincial approval. EAST POINT Final plan and report have been presented by Hough Stansbury for review and comment by the Authority. Authority staff comments have been made and a final draft is expected in the near future. ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING . A draft report for the 1979 Program has been submitted by Proctor and Redfern for review. Preliminary fisheries work in the embayments at Bluffers suggests that a more comprehensive study should be carried out, including contaminant studies. MNR and MOE will be approached to see if they are willing to finance a chemical analysis. B-116 TO: THE CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE, M.T.R.C.A. - Meeting' 6/80 FROM: MR. M. R.

B-128 SCHEDULE "A" The Status of Rabies in Ontario - 1979 April 11. 1980 David H. Johnston and Ola C. McNeil Rabies Research Unit Wildlife Research Section .J1ldl1fe Branch Ontario I11nistry of Natural Resources B-129 The Status of Rabies in Ontario - 1979 Rabies is still a major wildlife and domestic health problem in Ontario. Durin9 1979 a total of 1408 cases were diagnosed from 47 counties and districts in the province. Ontario tlinistry of Health reports that 965.peop1e received rabies vaccination for exposure to rabid animals. The following cases were diagnosed by the Canada Department of Agriculture. Rabies Diagnostic Laboratory, Animal Disease Research Institute, Ottawa; Wildlife Domestic fox 673 cattle 180 skunk 315 dog 83 bat 23 cat 49 wolf 8 sheep 23 coyote 5 horse 20 raccoon 5 goat 8 groundhog 2 swine 5 black bear 1 rabbit 1 weasel 1 The distribution of these cases by county is shown in Fi~. 1 and Table 1. The density of cases per 100 square miles is shown in Fig. 2. The monthly distribution of rabies for the province appears in Fig. 3. In 1979 there was a 10% increase in the wildlife rabies cases. This was a result of the increased fox rabies in southeastern Ontario and the extensive skunk rabies throughout the province. Skunk movement. as indicated by radio-tracking studies, was greatly influenced by the mild open winter conditions of 1I0vember-December. 1979. and January. 1980 (Fig. 4). The most active rabies area in Ontario during 1979 was centered in ^ Grenville county. where a density of 20.3 cases q. mile was reported. This is the highest density reported anywhere in Ontario since the initial epizootics of 1957. 58 and 59. This high density was the result of an out- break in foxes which was contiguous with outbreaks that began in Carleton. Lanark and Leeds Counties during 1973. This same focus spread north through Renfrew County along the Ottawa River and up the 11adawaska Valley to the . . - 2 - B-130 borders of Algonquin Park. This epizootic may move into Algonquin Park in 1980. Two interesting cases were associated with the high intensity of rabies during the past two years in southeastern Ontario. At 0430 r~y 31, 1979, two fishermen were attacked and bitten by a rabid black bear near Madoc, while asleep in tneir tent. The animal was aggressive and also attacked a passing car before being shot by the O.P.P. in the basement of an unfinished house about 2 km away. A cooperative effort by all personnel from mUIR, or"IH, OPP and Agriculture Canada made it possible to diagnose the specimen and treat the fishermen the same day as the biting incident occurred. This is the 10th rabid bear reported in Canada and the 5th record for Ontario. More importantly it is the first case of a rabid bear attacking humans in Ontario. In relation to bear attacks, it should bt emphasized again that no cause was ever established for the bear attack in Algonquin Park which . . resulted in the death of 3 youths in 1978. That bear was not rabid. In addition to the usual problems of nuisance bears, it is now apparent that attacks by rabid bears on campers and tourists are possible. Rabies was reported close to Algonquin Park during 1979. Therefore there is a potential for rabies in larger mammals such as bear, wolf, deer and moose this coming year. In Lennox-Addington County on May 7th, a fox was shot while attacking a domestic rabbit in a chicken coop. The fox was sent in for diagnosis and found to be positive for rabies. The pet rabbit was then quarantined and after 3 weeks became lethargic and stopped eating. On ~~y 31st, 24 days after being attacked by the rabid fox, the rabbit died of rabies. Another important case,the first rabid weasel in Ontario, was reported on June 12, 1979, from Southampton. The weasel was brought in by a pet cat. The owner, unsure of whether the cat had been bitten, sent the weasel to . - 3 - B-l31 the Health of Animals Branch in Walkerton. The weasel was positive for rabies and the cat was quarantined for 90 days. The cat, previously vaccinated for rabies (Nov.1978), did not become rabid. To date in Ontario rabies has been diagnosed in the following wildlife species: Red fox Vulpes vulpes Arctic fox Alooex laqopus Striped Skunk f1ephitis mephitis Coyote Canis latrans Timber wolf Canis lupus Raccoon Procyon lotor Big Brol,," Bat Eptesicus fuscus Eastern Long-eared bat Hyotis kee~ Little Brown Bat ~yot' s_ 1 uci fugus Hoary Bat asiurus cinereus Red Bat lasiiJriiS borea 1 is Silver-Haired Bat lasionycteris noctivagans E;lstern Pipistrelle Pipistrellus subflavus Groundhog Marmota monax "uskrat Ondatra zibethica Black Bear Ursus ameri canus_ White-tailed Deer Odocoileus virainianus Ri<;nr Rison bison Fisher Marte-s pennanti_ Black Squirrel Sciuris carolinensis Weasel r'lustela sp.? Other species which occur in Ontario have been found rabid elsewhere in North ~nerica. Rabies should be suspected in these species if unusual behaviour is encountered. These species include: ~loose Alces alces Caribou .B.angifer tarandus Polar Bear Thalarctos maritimus Grey Fox Urocvon cinereoarQenteus Porcupine Erethizon dorsatum Beaver ~ canadensis It should also be noted that no rabies has been reported in any of the 3 lagomorphs which occur in Ontario: Cottonta il Sylvilagus floridanus Snol"lshoe Hare Lepus americanus European Hare Lepus europaeus; nor have there been any cases diagnosed in small rodents such as mice, rats and chipmunks. However, rabies should always be considered when dealing with any wild species exhibiting unusual or aggressive behaviour. . .'- .-..... . -. i--. ----.-, -- ........ ... ..--- .---. .----- ~.. .. r'- - . i (0) '\ : @) (> " . .

INJ, "mR/lJ' IT,/;-..J" . ~A~~ . B-138 RABiES . _. . - ; LA RAGE ... -.. Rabies (La Rage) is a virus disease normally transmitted in the bite of mammals. Any mammal is susceptible to rabies although some are more susceptible than others. In Ontario, , red fox and striped skunk are the most commonly infected . wildlife which spread the disease to dome~tic animals and; man (see Table l). Vertebrates such as birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish are ~ normally infected in the wild. Transmission and Symptoms. In Ontario, the annual peak of rabies activity is in the fall and winter with less transmission during the summer. In the spring humans are often exposed to rabies when they catch young wild animals such as foxes or raccoons and take them home for pets. Although rabies may be present at any time or place in the province, it is primarily endemic in southern Ontario. Periodic cycles with peaks every 3 to 4 years correspond to high fox populations. .. . In attempting to control rabies in wildlife in Ontario the OMNR in cooperation with other provincial ministries and Conn aught Laboratories Ltd. is developing an oral rabies vaccine. It will be incorporated into a bait for vaccinating foxes, skunks, etc. in the wild. Aircraft will deliver the bait to remote areas. It is hoped that this method will result in reduction of rabies in wildlife. There are 2 distinct periods in the development of rabies following the entry of virus through the bite wound. These are the incubation period and the symptomatic period. During the incubation period, which varies from 2 weeks to 1 year, the virus multiplies in the area of the bite. wound and moves to the brain. The symptomatic period usually lasts 3-5 days during . 'B-.1.39 which abnormal behaviour and biting occur. The animal's saliva is considered to be infective only a few days prior to, and during, the symptomatic period. , At the end of this period the animal succumbs to convulsions and paralytic seizures. Rabies should be suspected in any mammal displaying abnormal behaviour such as loss of fear of man or normal animal enemies, aggression, attacks and biting, eating non-food items such as soil, stones, sticks, faeces, loss of balance, convulsions and paralysis. In domestic pets a change in temperament or normal habits may be an early sign of rabies. Red fox lose fear of man and other animals and may attack without provocation. They are attracted to strong scents such as mammal faeces and farm manure. The presence of porcupine quills in the muzzle or skunk scent on the fur are certain indicators of rabies in red fox. Skunks, like foxes, usually try to avoid man and other animals but when rabid may be unafraid, bite without provocation, . and often do not spray their scent. Skunks wandering about aimlessly during the daytime should be suspected although -- uninfected skunks may also be seen during daylight in the mating season of late winter and early spring. The big brown bat is the most important of 5 species of Ontario bats from which the rabies virus has been isolated. Suspect bats may be found flying in daylight or fluttering on the ground where their squeaks attract domestic pets and other animals which can be bitten on the lip or muzzle. Aerosol transmission of rabies is known to occur in bat caves in the United States but has not been reported in Ontario. Raccoons are not as commonly infected with rabies as . foxes or skunks in Ontario, and are more often infected with [9] . B-140 canine distemper virus than with rabies virus. Raccoons with eitner disease are frequently found wandering aimlessly or sitting inactive in the open and may be aggressive when approached. Therefore, a sick raccoon should be considered : rabid until proven otherwise by lab diagnosis. Rabid timber wolves and coyotes display symptoms sim~lar to foxes and because of their size can be extremely dangerous. Handling of Rabies Suspect Cases Extreme caution is imperative when handling any mammal suspected of being rabid. They can be aggressive and bite even when apparently paralysed. Species such as woodchuck and muskrat which are not usually considered aggressive can also attack when rabid and inflict dangerous wounds. Suspected rabid wildlife should be shot in order to limit further spread of rabies and to obtain a specimen for diagnosis in cases where humans and domestic animals have been exposed. If feasible, the animal should be shot in the chest so that the head is available for microscopic diagnosis. . Gloves or similar protection should be worn when handling suspected rabid carcasses to avoid contact between the animal and your skin, eyes, nose, and mouth. The specimen should be placed in a double plastic bag of heavy thickness and . then in a metal container such as a pail or garbage can. It should be kept cool either by refrigeration or freezing and isolated from children and household pets until submitted. The area and materials contaminated by the carcass should be decontaminated by washing with a disinfectant such as household bleach or by incineration. Specimens suspected of being rabid should be submitted immediately to the Health of Animals Branch,.Canada Department of Agriculture for diagnosis. In addition to information [101 B-14l TABLE 1.

[l2) B-l42 requested under "Submission of Specimens", the names, addresses and particularly phone numbers of any persons or domestic animals exposed to the rabies suspect animal should be submitted. Pre- and post-exposure Medical Treatment In addition to bites the following forms of exposure: to potentially rabid animals warrant medical attention: licks or . I saliva contact with skin, eyes, nose, lips, cuts or scratches. Since elimination of rabies virus at the site of infection by chemical or physical means is the most effective mechanism of protection, immediately wash and flush with soap and water, detergent, or water alone. After washing, apply either 40-70\ alcohol, tincture or aqueous solutions of iodine, or 0.1% quaternary ammonium compounds. Immediately following first-aid treatment the patient should contact a physician or a hospital emergency ward. Rabies vaccine and antiserum will be administered as required. Expert consultation on human rabies exposure can be obtained by physicians from the ontario Ministry of Health, Toronto, Canada. . Pre-exposure vaccination is available for high-risk personnel . such as conservation officers, resource and animal care technicians, trappers, spelunkers, veterinarians, and wildlife biologists. New safe vaccines are available which will provide initial protection should a subsequent exposure occur. Information on pre-exposure procedure is available through the Rabies Unit, Wildlife Research section, wildlife Branch, Ministry of Natural Resources, Maple, Ontario or the Epidemiology Section, Ministry of IIealth, Toronto, Ontario. Vaccination of pets is important since they may contact a rabid animal when out of sight of the owner and later become - _ rabid in the home. . It.is .imperative that hunting dogs be .... . . -- vaccinated. Vaccinations should be repeated as directed by the veterinarian. nll .

B-192 SCHEDULE "C" To: The Chairman and Members of the Executive Committee Meeting #9/80 From: Mr. R. K. Cooper, Administrator, Historical Sites Division, and Mr. T. E. Barber, Administrator, Information & Education Division Re: Museum Grants The Ministry of Culture and Recreation has recently engaged in an extensive review of the Ministry's museum pOlicy. Proposed changes will affect future grants for both the Kortright Centre and Black Creek Pioneer Village. Last year Kortright received $33,l13. and Black Creek $72,000. To ensure that the entire museum community has an opportunity to offer suggestions and comments on the proposed changes, Ministry officials are holding a series of public meetings across the Province. The meeting for the Toronto area will be held at Queen's Park on June l6th at 9.30 a.m. The Ministry has issued four documents: (a) Discussion paper on policy. (b) Proposed guidelines for new museums. (c) Interpretation of Museum Grant Regulations. (d) Discussion paper for allocation of funds for cultural and recreational facilities under Wintario. A copy of the documents is attached. The proposed policy raises three major points and some minor points which could affect Authority funding from the Ministry of Culture and Recreation. (l) Eligibility The paper entitled "Museum Grant Regulation Interpretation" has con- siderably changed the definition of a museum. Section I (l) states as follows: "museum" means an institution that: (1) is established for the purpose of acquiring, conserving, studying, interpreting, assembling and exhibiting to the public for its instruction and enjoyment a collect- ion of objects and specimens of heritage significance. The interpretation of a museum under the present Ontario Regulation 709/75 is as follows: "museum" means an institution that: (i) is established for the purpose of conserving, studying, interpreting, assembling and exhibiting to the public for its instruction and enjoyment objects and specimens of educational and cultural value including historical, technological, anthropological or scientific material. The definition under Ontario Regulation 709/75 more adequately describes a museum. Recommendation I IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT the Ministry of Culture and Recreation continue to define a museum as in Ontario RegUlation 709/75. (2) Governing Body Part 2 under "Museum Grant Regulation Interpretation" states as follows: "To be eligible to receive a museum grant, all applicants shall: (a) appoint a governing body, either a committee or Board, charged solely with the government of the museum, the initiation and execution of pOlicy, and the establish- ment and execution of annual budgets for the museum within the framework of the applicant's organization. In the case of a municipal board or committee, the appointing by-law must be in accordance with The Municipal Act. B-193 - 2 - This section does not take into consideration the position of Conservation Authorities which have museums and which must operate under the Conservat- ion Authorities Act. Recommendation 2 IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT section 2 of the "Museum Grant Regulation Interpret- ation" be amended as follows: "2. To be eligible to receive a museum grant, all applicants, with the exception of Conservation Authorities, shall: (a) appoint a governing body, either a committee or Board, charged solely with the government of the museum, the initiation and execution of policy, and the establish- ment and execution of annual budgets for the museum within the framework of the applicant's organization. In the case of a municipal board or committee, the appointing by-law must be in accordance with the Municipal Act. Conservation Authorities shall appoint an Advisory Board, charged with recommending to the Executive of the Auth- ority, the initiation and execution of policy and the establishment and execution of annual budgets for its museums." IT IS FURTHER RECOMMENDED THAT the necessary changes be made in sections 2 (b) (i) and 2 (b) (il) to conform with the Conservation Authorities Act. 3. Operating Grants At the present time museums receiving operating grants from the Heritage Conservation Division of the Ministry can get up to a maximum of $72,000. Such Ministerial institutions as the R.O.M., Ste. Marie-Among-The-Hurons, the Ontario Science Centre receive very sizable grants under various different programs. Black Creek is the only museum in the Province receiv- ing the maximum grant of $72,000. from the Heritage Conservation Division's Community Museum Grant Program. The existing grant formula is based on revenue a~n ~h~ length of ~i~~ the museum is open to the public. Because of certain formula ;O;nl:'yn':'>:'?!?ios some museums have received more than 100' of their revenue in grants, while others have received as low as 2' of their revenue. In 1980 the grant will still be based on revenue, but no museum will receive a grant of more than 50' of its revenue and all grants from Wintario, Experience, Ontario Heritage Foundat~on, federal grants and major capital costs will be subtracted before determining eligible operating revenue. No museum will receive in grants more than 100' of expenditures. Next year it is proposed that grants will be based on expenditures rather than revenue and that the maximum grant would not exceed 50% of expendit- ures, and in the following years not more than 45'. Art Galleries are at present being funded through another Division of the Ministry and are receiving grants which do not exceed 20% of expenditures. There is an indication that the Museum formula may, within a few years, parallel the Art Gallery formula. It is obvious that the new operating grant formula will gradually reduce the $1,840,000. which the Ministry is now granting, and at the same time equalize the percentage which each museum will receive. It is proposed to use the excess money to fund a new discretionary grant program. The detail concerning the formula and criteria for this new discretionary grant is not given and it is impossible at this stage to judge its impact on Kortright and Black Creek. The gradual equalization of operating grants at a level of approximately 20' of expenditures appeared to be a commendable and fair way to treat each and every museum in the Province. There is one exception, and that is Black Creek Pioneer Village which is the only museum receiving the maximum grant of $72,000, or approximately 7% of its expenditures. If the grant structure is to be equitable, then the ceiling of $72,000. should be raised to allow Black Creek to receive the same grant percentage (20%) as all other museums in Ontario. There appears to be little or no justification for Ontario tax dollars to be subsidizing all museums in the Province to 20' of expenditures and at the same time subsidizing Black Creek by only 7%. B-194 - 3 - There is also little or no justification for starting a new discretionary program until the present operating grant program is equitable for all museums in the Province. Recommendation 3 IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT the Ministry of Culture and Recreation be requested to use surplus funds from the equalization of museum operating grants to bring the grants on the low end of the scale up to the equalization per- centage. IT IS FURTHER RECOMMENDED to the Ministry that the ceiling on operating grants be raised so that all museums can receive the equalized percentage. IT IS FURTHER RECOMMENDED to the Ministry that unless it can obtain addit- ional grant funding, it not begin a discretionary grant program until it has equitably funded the operating grant. 4. Revenue Producing Operations The Mini~try states that in 1981 the operating grant formula will be based on expenditures. However, there is no detail as to what expenditures will be allowable. Surely gross expenditures from food services, sales outlets and other revenue producing operations will not be included in the formula. Since the net revenue from these sources reduces the amount of tax dollars necessary to operate a museum, it is clear that museums should be encouraged through an appropriate grant structure to ge~erate as much money as possible. Recommendation 4 IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT the new museum operating grant formula encourage museums to generate as much revenue as possible from food services, sales outlets and other revenue producing operations, AND FURTHER THAT details of the proposed discretionary grant formula be circulated to all museums for comment before being finalized by the Ministry.

McLean, Director, Planning and pOlicy RE: ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE - RESOURCE MANAGEMENT DIVISIONS At Meeting i18/79 of the Executive Committee Report i5/79 of the Management Review Sub-Committee was adopted. The report included the following direction: "THAT the Secretary-Treasurer be requested to prepare a report and recommendations, for consideration by the Personnel Sub- Committee on the staff organizational structure of the Authority, including the strengthening of the Personnel Management function of the Authority." In a subsequent report to the Executive committee, the Secretary-Treasurer outlined the tasks which would be undertaken as a part of the study and a timetable for completing the work. (Executive Meeting #5/80, Resolution .122). The Finance, Administration and Property functions were examined early in 1980 and revisions in structure and organization made at Executive Meetings i2l/79 and #7/80. The purpose of this report is to examine and recommend a structural framework within which the management activities required to produce the resource management work set out in the Watershed Plan, can best be performed. There are two basic components which have to be fitted together in the structural framework. (i) the management functions which have to be performed~ (ii) the work packages which are defined by the programs which make up the Watershed Plan. (i) Management Functions The role of management in producing the program results set out in the Watershed Plan is to assemble the resources required to carry out the work and allocate them to effectively achieve results. The resources which must be assembled include, funding, required approvals, political and community support, technology, materials and equipment, staff, administrative systems, and agency and intergovernmental relations. There are four levels of management required to assemble and allocate these resources: Executive Management Program Management Activity Management Work Supervision. The relative roles of these levels are illustrated in Chart II as follows. The Chart deals only with management functions. There are, within the Authority, many positions of a professional and scientific nature which are not management positions but which musb be accommodated in any consideration given to appropriate levels of remuneration for such positions. A study dealing with remuneration mu~t take this into consideration. i CHART U ~ I-' c.."1 MANAGEMENT FUNCTION RESOURCES RESPONSIBLE FOR ACCOUNTABILITY Executive . Funding .

B-216 ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE - RESOURCE MANAGEMENT DIVISIONS PAGE 2 (ii) Programs At the present time the work of the Authority is carried out by five Divisions: Finance and Administration, Conservation Land Management, Water Resource, Information and Education and Historical Sites. At the present time there is a considerable amount of overlapping among Divisions in the accountability for budget spending. Chart #2 illustrates the relative share of the Authority budget for which each Division is responsible. The Watershed Plan defines the Authority's work in 10 programs and for budget purposes, these 10 programs will become the defined work packages to which the management functions apply. Chart #3 has been prepared to illustrate the relationship between the programs or work packages and management functions. The cost estimates which are set out in the Watershed Plan are included in the chart to illustrate the relative magnitudes of dollar responsibilities which each program entails. These figures are also grouped to show a total by Division. It is the intention, through the management system and the budget organization, to reduce the overlapping of budget accountability and confine it to management personnel responsible for a given program or activity within that program. As much as possible the program components that are set out in the Watershed Plan are used as the work packages for which a manager would be responsible and accountable. In addition to the management benefits of this approach, reporting to the Executive Committee will be facilitated. This report deals with resource management programs. The activities which fall within the Administration Program will be dealt with in a similar manner. . t::l CHART #2 I SUMMARY OF 1980' BUDGET BY PROGRAM ~ I-' -.J , , of SI.Ilmary of , of Sources of Funding Expenditures Revenues Program Salaries and Program Prov . .t:~T-....m Aroount , Aroount Budget Benefits Budget Grant , ~ , Other , -",,---- . ~11; ni ~t:"ation . ..~ Gen.

Development Control & Regulation Administration The relationship of management functions to the program implementation chart represents the present management structure, as it would apply to the Watershed Plan programs, with one exception. The Development Control function, which is presently directly responsible to the Director of Planning and POlicy, is shown as a part of the Water Resource Division responsibility, under Prevention and Storm Water Management. Development Control and Regulation Administration is such an intregal part of-the Water Resource programs that this change in organization is considered essential. 2. Coordination of Resource Service Programs The Watershed Plan programs break down into two major categories: Resource Management and Resource Service. The Resource Management Programs are all contained within the Water Resource Division. ,Resource Management Resource Service Flood Control Conservation Land Management Erosion and Sedimentation Watershed Recreation Storm Water Management Community Relations Shoreline Management Heritage Conservation Land Acquisition Waterfront Development Each of the Resource Service Programs has an identifiable expertise and relationship to advisory boards which is required to carry ou~ the program. The technology and objectives associated with the Heritage Conservation Program are easily distinguishable from Community Relations and Watershed Recreation. At the same time, there are many activities in these programs which require the same skills and should not be competative among the programs. . visitor program development . marketing . conservation education. Within the management function framework the accountability for these activities is at the Activity Management Level. The structure should provide for these activities to be coordinated at this level among the Divisions on an on-going basis through an Interdivisional Program Committee. In this. same category are: . food service and sales . security . reservations. While these activities require administrative coordination, the requirements of each program are very different. The accountability for these services should lie with the Division responsible for the program. The techniques for ensuring administrative coordination require further study. 3. Planning The Director of Planning and Policy is responsible for the Authority's planning activities. There are two levels of planning. Goals planning, including coordination of Authority responses to programs and policies of other agencies. The Director, assisted by the Research Planner, are directly responsible and accountable for this. Secondly, all of the programs include a planning activity requirement. This includes, program development, master planning, and environmental assessment. In the present structure, planning capability is available in the Water Resource and Conservation Land Management Divisions. The Information and Education and Historical Sites Divisions draw on the planning capability of the other Divisions or use consultants. The principle of having planning capability as an intregal part of program delivery, as opposed to a separate service function, is important. It concentrates planning efforts on the specific programs and keeps them relevant. It has the defici.ency of unequal in-house planning capability. B-220 ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE - RESOURCE MANAGEMENT DIVISIONS PAGE 4 A function of the Planning and Policy Committee has been to coordinate and allocate planning capability among Divisions. In the management function- framework accountability for the technical component of planning is at the Activity Management Level. There is sufficient merit in the present approach to planning activities to warrant its continuance. The Planning and Policy Committee, at the present time, is made up of the Director of Planning and Policy and the Administrators of the Water Resource, Information and Education, Historical Sites and Conservation Land Management Divisions. Effective coordination of planning activities and the allocation of planning capability among Divisions will be facilitated if the function of this Committee is altered to concentrate on inter-divisional planning and if the membership includes the planning staff, with the Division Administrators in an exofficio capacity. The Committee would be renamed the Planning Committee. 4. Organization of Functions The b~sic organization of the Authority, taking into account the changes already made in the Finance and Administration Division, would have three major components: . Finance and Administration . Resource Management . Resource Service. Chart .4 illustrates the basic organization. A consultant study of the principles by which the Authority remunerates all of its staff is being recommended as a part of the Management Study Review. It is important that this study be undertaken in the context of the programs .which now form a part of the Watershed Plan, the management functions which 'are required to carry out the programs, and with an appreciation of the organizational issues which must be resol.~~. This report and basic organization should be considered as the context for the remuneration study. RECOMMENDATION: IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT the report on the Organizational Structure - Resource Management Divisions be received and the principles of organization adopted. 1980.06.11.

FROM: K.G. Higgs, Secretary-Treasurer RE: REPORT #3/80 - FINANCE SUB-COMHITTEE . THE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT: The report on the 1981 Budget, as appended, be received~ and , THAT the 1981 Budget be prepared on the basis of goals and objectives set out in the Watershed Plan, and that the budget format be based on the decision units which make up the programs contained in the Watershed Plan~ AND FURTHER THAT the principles of zero base bUdgeting be applied to the budget preparation. ,. June-30-1980 KC. B-223 TO: The Chilirman and Members of the Finance Sub-Committee, fol.T.R.C.A. Meeting #3/80 Monday-June-23-1980 FROM: Mr. W.A. McLean, Director of Planning and POlicy RE: PREPARA'l'ION OF 'l'HE ,1981 BUDGET It is proposed that the preparation of the 1981 Budget reflect three major concepts: 1. the proposals of the Watershed Plan, 2. the identification of decision units, and 3. the assignment of staff accountability. The Watershed Plan, currently in circulation for comment, will guide the Authority's work over the next several years and will be implemented by projects adopted to commence in 1982. 1981, while being the last year of existing project approvals, can provide an excellent opportunity, through the budget preparation process, for the Authority to formulate an appropriate budget format for P~an implementation. Programs have, therefore, been broken down into decision units in order to utilize the technique of zero-base budgetting. A decision unit is a tangible activity or group of activities for which a single manager has the responsibility for successful performance. Within each decision unit there may be a number of decision packages. Each decision package represents one way of performing an activity, ie. a level of service within the decision unit. Decision packages can be priori zed within a decision unit and, at a subsequent stage, can be priorized, or ranked, in conjunction with all other decision packages in the total budget. There is, of course, a minimum level of servic~ within each decision unit which must be provjded for if the activity described by the unit is to continue as a part of the Authority's work, ie. that level of effort which, if reduced, would necessitate discontinuance of the activity. Once the programs of the Watershed Plan have been divided into decision units, each unit can be identified as the management responsibility of a specific staff person. No decision unit would be the responsibility of staff below the superintendent/supervisor level. This identification of responsibility establishes management accountability for performance of the decision unit and is another component of the successful application of a zero-base budgetting technique. The attached chart illustrates the proposed decis~on units for use in the preparation of the 1981 budget. In reviewing and ranking decision packages both wlthin each decision unit and amongst all decision units, the priorities of the Authority for the 1981 budget must recognize a number of objectives. . The Authority's first priority must be to ensure that those commitments made for the projects adopted and ending in 1981 can be met. Both the commitments in The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Waterfront Project 1977-1981 and The Interim Water and Related Land Management Project 1979-1981 must take priority over any new or expanded proposals evolving from the Watershed Plan. The second priority of the 1981 Budget, however, should be ~o reflect the program components proposed by the Watershed Plan, in particular, the enrichment of certain activities as well as the introduction of new initiatives such as storm water management. Within each decision unit, the ranking of decision packages will be based on the principles established as part of the preparation of the 1980 budget as follows: 1) Administration and operation costs required to operate the componen t: 2) Studies and design required to implement scheduled works or activi~y: 3) Land Acquisition - commitments - required for scheduled works - flood plain and valley - headwaters; B-224 PREPARATION OF THE 1981 DUDG~T PAGE 2 4) Scheduled works or activity; 5) Studies and design required to complete program or project preparation~ 6) Completion of long term base studies~ 7) Continuing long term base studies; 8) Initiating long term base studies. The first draft of the budget is to be prepared by each Division during July and August for consideration by the appropriate Advisory Boards in September. . RECOMMENDATION: IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT the 1981 Budget be prepared on the basis of the goals and objectives set out in the Watershed Plan and that the budget format be . based,on the decision units which make up the programs contained in the Watershed Plan; and FURTHER THAT the principles of zero-base budgetting be applied to the budget preparation. 1980.06.19.

Conservation Land Management Division RE: Progress Report April 1 to June 30, 1980 CONSERVATION AREA DEVELOPMENT Following the preparation of the Watershed Plan in the first quarter of 1980, the second quarter of the year has been utilized to finalize technical plans for the scheduled Conservation Area Development items. Approval was received from the Province of Ontario for the Landscape Plan for the Cold Creek Con- servation Area. This work is currently underway with final plantings scheduled for the fall. Plans have been completed for the water and electrical servicing for the Indian Line Campground and are currently being reviewed by the Ministry of Natural Resources. As well, final plans have been completed for the washroom addition at Bruce's Mill. Following tests required for the septic system they will be submitted for Ministry approval. The servicing of the Campground will be carried out during September and October in part by Authority staff. The Bruce's Mill washroom addition will also be carried out during the fall. During the spring, a number of projects were carried out. An extension was added to the Claireville boat compound to enable the rental of all the canoes and row boats situated in the Claireville Area. The compound also now surrounds the portable building which houses the program equipment helping to ensure lower maintenance costs. Adult bass were stocked in the Claireville reservoir prior to spring spawning. This is the first of a three y~ar program designed to re-establish a high quality bass fishery. Water servicing was extended to 16 existing campsites in the Indian Line Camp- ground in June. This will provide better utilization of these campsites. Five large beds were planted near the Beach at the Claireville Area. These beds planted with 2,000 shrubs, 65 trees, will greatly enhance the area in future years providing shade and shelter from the wind. In 1979, the lack of shade was often mentioned as a deterrent to the enjoyment of visitors to the Claireville Area. These beds are b~ing maintained throughout 1980. The Glen Haffy fish rearing program has continued to operate successfully. Three hundred Rainbow trout were stocked in the Duffin Creek for the Ajax Day , held at Greenwood Conservation. Five thousand Rainbow trout were also stocked at the Heart Lake Conservation Area to improve fishing in that area. CONSERVATION SERVICES Authority Land ~mnagement Programs Scout groups from Humber-Seneca, York Summit, t~ssissauga and Ajax planted 40,000 reforestation seedlings at Boyd and Glen !~jor. Eighty thousand seedling trees were also planted at Glen Haffy, Cold Creek, Humber Trails, Boyd and Claireville Conservation Areas as well as the !'Cl.lgrave Forest and Wildlife Area. Two thousand reforestation_trees have been planted at the Greenwood Conservation Area by the residents of the Town of Ajax. Woodlot management programs have been carried out at Boyd, Heart Lake, Claireville and Glen Haffy Conservation Areas as well as plantation management at the Gibson Lake Area. Approximately 170 cubic meters of firewood have been pro- duced along with 90 cubic meters of pulpwood. This program covered approximately 184 hectares of Authority woodlots. - - 2 - B-279 Landscape projects have been carried out at the South Thackeray Sanitary Land- fill Site ("600 shrubs, 140 B&B trees and 100 B.R. trees) and a tree maintenance and site monitoring project is presently underway. The Humber Bay East land- scape project has been completed (345 B&B trees and 350 shrubs) and is undergoing a tree maintenance project. Landscape projects were also carried out at the C1airevi1le Cons. Area, (2,000 shrubs, 15 B&B trees and 60 B.R. trees) and the Kortright Centre. Planting plans have been developed for the Bluffer's Park landscape project. The Authori.ty tree spade was active in preparing B&B trees for all Authority landscape projects. The Authority nursery operation supplied 1,638 trees and 5,576 shrubs to other government agencies this past spring. Trees and shrubs have been supplied to the Flood Control Section (300 B.R. trees and 2,650 shrubs). One hundred trees were donated to the Township of Norwich for replacing trees lost in the August 9th, 1979 tornado. Nine site visits were carried out for Authority land agricultural rentals. Stream improvement projects consisting of fencing, plantings and bank stabilization are being carried out on 750m of stream on Authority lands to improve cold water fisheries. Private Landowner Assistance Programs Approximately 5,300 farm trees and 5,000 shrubs have been planted under the Farm Tree and Shrub Program for 71 private landowners within the watershed. Twenty-seven private landowners received, assistance in planting 116,250 seedling trees under the private reforestation assistance program. Ten private tree spade rentals have been carried out to date and four remain on file. Site visits related to pond construction, stream improvement and planting assistance programs were carried out for 34 private landowners within the watershed. Stream improvement projects are underway for private landowners. Two projects have been completed and four remain on file. Under the S.P.O.F., approximately 900m of stream will be developed for cold water fisheries by improving habitat and reducing sediment. One site has been completed and additional projects of fencing and stabilization have been scheduled. A stream improvement display and private landowner assistance program display has been developed to promote the Authority technical assistance program. A pond assistance fact sheet has been developed to assist private landowners in maintaining and constructing ponds. , One Conservation Plan has been completed and 4 requests for plans remain on file. CONSERVATION AREA OPERATIONS During the early part of the spring season, preparations were completed for opening the 13 Forest and Wildlife Areas and Conservation Areas for summer activities. All Areas were operating by the Victoria Day weekend. Albion Hills, Bruce's Mill, Claremont, Glen Haffy, Greenwood and Heart Lake Areas opened for the start of the trout season April 26th. During this period, Conservation Area staff also assisted with the spring tree and shrub planting programs on both private ~nd Authority lands. The Bruce's Mill Maple Syrup program concluded in mid-April. This year's program attendance was down 2,172 general visitors and 1,047 school children. The Indian Line and Albion Hills campgrounds opened mid-May. All swimming areas opened May 31st, except Petticoat Creek and Greenwood. Repairs and painting delayed the Petticoat Creek pool opening one week. The Greenwood swimming pond was not opened due to lack of sufficient, qualified lifeguard staff. - B-280 - 3 - Several special activities took place in Conservation Areas during the spring. At Claireville, the Lamplighter's Camping Club held a tree planting day on May 10 at which club mcmberA planted 1,000 reforestation trees. The annual canoe program "Open House" was held on tolay 11 and featured equipment displays and demonstrations. A windsurfing regatta took place on June 28-29. For a first-time event, it was moderately successful but storms curtailed some of the activity. A second regatta is being scheduled for later this summer. May 24th at Greenwood Conservation Area commerated the Town of Ajax's 25th Anniversary with free admission, tree planting ceremonies and fishing demonstra tions. Despite considerable promotion and good weather, only 800 people attended the activities. The Cold Creek Area model aircraft site was officially opened on June 21st with a fun fly contest for members and guests of the Radio Control Flying Club of Toronto. Two one day Husky Shows were held during May and June by the Siberian Husky Club. The first of several Hunter Education courses was held during June. A weekday parki.ng fee reduction was introduced at Boyd, Bruce's Mill, Claireville, Heart Lake and Petticoat Creek Conservation Areas beginning June 2nd. Fees were reduced from $2.50 to $1.50 per car between 4:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. It is too early to fairly assess this program, however, sales in all Areas totalled 939 to the end of June. The bulk of these occurred during the last week of June. During this period, staff have been involved in several promotional activities. Flyers and brochures on the Clairville Canoe Open House, Ajax 25th Anniversary and the Petticoat Creek pool were distributed to Conservation Area visitors. Cable T.V. interviews were completed on Conservation Area activities and Ajax 25th Anniversary as well as a special program for TV Ontario on the Claireville Canoe activity. The following table compares attendance figures for the period of April 1st to June 30, 1980 and the total attendance for the year to June 30, 1980 with the same periods for 1979. For April 'to June attendance decreased 7909 visitors or 2.6% while the total attendance has decreased 52,408 or 13.7%. 1980 1979 Apr. 1 Total to Apr. 1 Total to -June 30 June 30 -June 30 June 30 Albion Hills 32,072 44,095 37,033 73,327 Boyd 45,377 51,069 49 ,4 34 56,132 Bruce's Mill 42,440 59,045 46,308 70 ,9 86 C1aireville 25,711 27,258 24,445 27,324 Claremont 13,214 12,214 14 ,454 16,306 Cold Creek 8,332 11 , 811 18,797 14 ,606 Glen Haffy 33,346 33,346 28,966 28,966 Greenwood 21,242 22,266 19,731 21,700 Heart Lake 35,982 40 ,103 33,596 37,893 Humber Trails 962 962 1,722 1,722 Palgrave - 1,384 - 5, 898 Woodbridge 5,048 5,048 3, 800 3,800 Petticoat Creek 14,747 14,747 19,868 19,868 Indian Line 7,062 7,062 5,290 5,290 285,535 331,410 293,444 383,818 - - 4 - 8-281 FINANCIAL STATEMENT - January 1 to June 30, 1980 . .

Areas Operations 982,335 271 , 707 28 741,776 FINANCIAL COMMENTS Costs to date have been in line with projections for Conservation Areas Develop- ment. Estimates prepared by a consulting engineer for the Indian Line Camp- ground extension are higher than originally anticipated. Work will be carried out to the limit of funds available. Sixty-seven percent of the anticipated revenues from Conservation Services programs has been met to date. Revenues by year end will exceed the present anticipated budget of 62,500 by approximately 50%. This additional revenue will offset coinciding anticipated overspending in the private assistance program. Conservation Areas Operations revenue is projected to be $240,500 below budget estimates. This shortfall is primarily due to lower attendance resulting from poor weather conditions particularly during the winter season. In order to offset this shortfall spending will be reduced by terminating all seasonal staff September 1st. As well, during the fall, Area staff will be transferred to other projects. These actions will realize $112,900 savings in anticipated spending. This will leave a projected shortfall of $127,600 at year end. Additional measures are being investigated to offset this shortfall. /lp 1980.07.30. ....

The Authority has identified the region's river valleys, the Lake Ontario shoreline and the headwater areas of the Oak Ridges interlobate moraine, and the Niagara Escarpment as the major resources to which its programs are applied. Each Conservation Authority in Ontario has been directed by the Province of Ontario to:- "Study and investigate the watershed and prepare and file with its member municipalities and the Minister of Natural Resources, a Watershed Plan." See report of the Working Group on the Mandate and Role of the Conservation Authorities of Ontario (1979). The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority endorsed a Watershed Plan on May 9, 1980. The Plan will be adopted in 1980 and will be filed with its member municipalities and the Minister of Natural Resources. The Watershed Plan is comprised of ten (10) interrelated programs:- Flood Control Program: Provision for protection of human life and property from the hazards of flooding and erosion is a basic requirement and the core of the Watershed Plan and the Flood Control Program. This program provides for remedial measures, land acquisition and application of regulatory measures to leave flood plains unobstructed to pass flood flows. Three programs complementary to the Flood Control Program recognize the relationships between urban drainage, erosion and sedimentation, and flooding. Erosion and Sediment Control Program: The Erosion and Sediment Control Program is aimed at protecting life and property through corrective works as well as preventing future hazards through development control Storm Water Manavement Program: The Storm Water Management Program details cooperat1ve action between the Authority and its member munic1palities on water management problems and preparation of master drainage plans. Conservation Land Management Program: The Conservation Land Management Program promotes conservation on private and public lands by providing for reforestatation, habitat improvements, stream improvements and a conservation land planning service. Shoreline Management Program: The Shoreline Management Program aims at reducing erosion and flooding hazards along the Lake Ontario Shoreline through application of protective works, acquisition and planning and regulatory controls. PAGE !=1- Land Acquisition Program: To ensure proper conservation land management, the Land Acquisition Program provides for acquisition of flood plain and valley lands, waterfront lands and environmentally significan~ lands. The Authority has acquired 26,600 acres of land that are being managed to achieve the objectives set forth in the Watershed Plan. Watershed Recreation Program AND Lake Ontario Waterfront Development Program: A valuable ancillary use of conservation lands is the development of recreation areas for public use and enjoyment. The Watershed Recreation Program and the Lake Ontario Waterfront Development Program are designed to meet this need. Heritage Conservation Program: The Heritage Conservation Program recognizes the special contribution that a historical perspective gives to the understanding of resource management. Community Relations Program: All of the efforts of the Authority in its conservation programs are dependent upon commun- ity understanding and acceptance. The Community Relations Program establishes the means by which the Authority can communicate with the community. The 1981 Preliminary Budget Estimates have been prepared on the basis of programs included in the Watershed Plan, and com- parison with previous activities is difficult. Based on previous budget systems since 19S7, 62.5% of the Authority's capital and development budget has been devoted to Water and Related Land Management, 24.5% has been devoted to the Lake Ontario Waterfront, 10.8% to Conservation and Recreation Land Management, and 2.2% to Outdoor and Conservation Education. The 1981 Preliminary Budget Estimates provide for the completion of the Interim Water and Related Land Management Project 1979 to 1981, the Waterfront Project 1977 to 19S1, and the Supplementary Waterfront Project 1980/Sl. FORMAT OF PRESENTATION The 1981 Preliminary Budget Estimates are based on a new format. The format is designed to more clearly identify the ten programs adopted by the Authority in its Watershed Plan. In addition, the budget estimates are organized into management units to more clearly identify and manage the Authority programs. The principles of program budget management have been used to develop the 1981 Preliminary Budget Estimates. There are five major types of Provincial grants available through the Ministry of Natural Resources to Conservation Authorities:- 1) Administration 4) Special Projects and Programs 2) Water & Related Land Management 5) Supplementary Grants (not applicable to M.T.R.C.A.) 3) Conservation & Recreation Land Management PAGE !=.L- AUTHORITY PROGRAMS (l) Finance and Administration a) Program Administration b) General Expense c) Property Acquisition and Maintenance & Management (2) Water and Related Land Management - Flood Control a) Program Administration b) Erosion and Sediment Control - Metropolitan Toronto - Peel, York, Durham c) Flood Control - planning and Remedial Measures - River forecasting operations, Maintenance Water Control Structures - Maintenance, Small Dams, Channels, Erosion Control Sites (3) Water and Related Land Management - Waterfront a) Program Administration b) Capital Development c) Lake Ontario Waterfront - Shoreline Management, Remedial Works, Capital - Shoreline Management, Maintenance (4) Conservation Land Management a) Program Administration b) Watershed Recreation - Planning - Conservation Area Development - Operations and Maintenance c) Conservation Land Management - Planning - Conservation Management - Conservation Management (Fish Rearing) - Operations and Maintenance (5) Information and Education a) Program Administration b) Community Relations - Information - General - Resource Management - Planning, Market Analysis - Conservation Education - Supervision, Operations, Maintenance - Supervision, Operations, Maintenance (Kortright) c) Conservation Education Development PAGE I-4 - (6) Historic Sites a) Program Administration b) Operations & Maintenance c) Capital Development Expenditures on administration, operations and maintenance and current programs comprise the Authority's General Levy on all participating municipalities apportioned on the basis of equalized assessment as supplied by the Province of Ontario. Expenditures on capital programs are financed as a Capital Levy on municipalities based on levies designated in specific projects. INTERIM WATER AND RELATED LAND MANAGEMENT PROJECT 1979-1981 The year 1981 is the final year of the three-year Interim Water and Related Land Management Project. This project enables the Authority to establish and undertake a program designed to conserve, restore, develop and manage the natural resources of the watershed within the area of its jurisdiction. The project will be finalized in 1981 to the extent of available Provincial cash flow and authorized municipal levy as approved by the Ontario Municipal Board. WATERFRONT PROJECT 1977-1981 The year 1981 is the final year of the second phase of the Waterfront Project 1977-1981. The total approved expenditures and authorized municipal levy, as approved by the Ontario Municipal Board for the project, is $22,000,000. In 1980 the Province of Ontario and The Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto approved the supplementary Waterfront Project 19S0-l981, and additional funding in the amount of $1,9S4,OOO. The two projects will be finalized in 19S1 to the extent of available Provincial cash flow and authorized municipal levy as approved by the Ontario Municipal Board. WATERSHED PLAN In 1981 the Authority will adopt projects to implement the programs in the approved Watershed Plan, and will request approval of the projects from its member municiaplities and the Province of Ontario. The funding for these prsOects will commence in 1982. - ~-- -~~ .--- PAGE I-s THE 19S1 LEVY The apportionment of the 1981 municipal levies is based on the 1980 figures supplied by the Province of Ontario. The final budget estimates will be based on updated figures when supplied by the Province of Ontario. In accordance with the policy adopted by the Authority, the Regional Municipalities of Durham, Peel and York will be levied an amount equal to 100% of the 1980 taxes paid by the Authority for revenue producing conservation areas within those munici- palities. Within Metropolitan Toronto, Authority lands are not subject to taxation. PROVINCIAL FUNDING The Provincial grant structure used in these estimates is based on the following approved percentages:- Administration 50% Water and Related Land Management SS% Conservation and Recreation Land Management SOt Waterfront Plan 50% The Authority will require the following level of funding from the Province of Ontario to finance the programs set forth in the 1981 Preliminary Budget Estimates.

K. Cooper, Administrator, Historical Sites Division Re: Progress Report - July 1 to September 30, 1980 PROGRESS - HISTORICAL SITES PROJECTS (Development) The interior of the Sawyer's Home has been painted and wallpapered and is in the process of being furnished. The exterior of the Richmond Hill Manse has been stuccoed and the interior is prepared for insulation and plastering. All development projects will cease until the budget situation is clarified. PROGRESS - HISTORICAL SITES PROGRAMS (Operations and Maintenance) (a) Registration and Artifacts Sixty-one items were donated by eleven people during July, August and September. Among the more interesting items accessioned were a broad- casting seeder box for a cultivator, circa 1860, and an 1816 sampler in a burled walnut frame. Two students hired under the Ministry of Culture and Recreation Experience Program 0701, assisted the Registration Department through the summer. With their assistance, inventories for five restored buildings were updated and inventories for two large storage areas were completed. (b) Publicity and Promotion The British America fire pumper from Black Creek was exhibited in front of the Royal Insurance booth at the Canadian National Exhibition. Once again, a display of artifacts was exhibited in the Arts, Crafts and Hobbies Building at the C.N.E. This display included the "What Is It?" con- test and a selection of Frank Conway carvings. The Village was used for several commercial photography projects through the summer, including an advertising flyer for Woolco, a film on energy production, a news documentary on the dairy industry and an educational film on immigration. Part of CBC's "Donnelly's of Biddulph" was filmed at Black Creek Pioneer village. Village staff have been interviewed three times during the summer on the John Bradshaw show on CFRB and once on CBC's Fresh Air show. Mr. Cooper spoke to a group at Niagara College on the development of Black Creek. (c) Special Events Bishop Allan Read, Suffragan Bishop of Toronto, led the second annual outdoor Hymn Sing on Sunday, September 7th. Approximately 1000 people attended. The singing was led by several Anglican Church choirs, the Etobicoke Temple Salvation Army Band and choir. Twenty-four weddings and twenty-six banquets and receptions were held at the village. Four groups held evening conventions, and two large groups held day- time picnics at Black Creek. Total attendance at these functions was 2700. (d) Building and Grounds Maintenance A new hydrant has been installed to help simplify the ice skating rink operation. The paved portion of the parking lot has been marked, and specific Dr~as have been designated for handicapped and bus parking. The parking lot islands have been sodded, and the area round the snack booth has been resodded. B-356 - 2 - As a result of torrential rains and flooding in late July, consider- able work had to be carried out in the area under the Jane-Steeles bridge. Most of this work was done by Metro Roads Department. Both the Mackenzie Home and the Town Hall have been repainted. (e) Staff One student, Miss Cassie Palamar, of the University of Toronto Master Degree Course in Museum Studies, has arranged to do one of her required internships at Black Creek Pioneer village. Miss Palamar will spend 12 weeks at Black Creek working on several projects for the Village and becoming familiar with the Village operation. Four students from Seneca College's Historical - Natural Interpret- ive services Course will be spending one day a week at Black Creek through September and November to gain experience in historical interpretation.

The slight drop in total attend- ance this year is due, almost entirely, to the poor weather and resulting lower attendance on Festival Day, September 13, 1980. The Festival attend- ance for 1980 was 4,349 compared to 7,555 in 1979. Gate revenue to Sept. 30, 1980 is $412,469, an increase of approximately $54,000 over 1979. Revenue from sales outlets is up approximately $7,000 over 1979. Village citizens number 431 to date, as compared to 396 in 1979. The government sponsored Experience '80 Program provided the Village with 11 students over the summer. They were a great asset to the Village operation. B- 35 7 TO: The Chairman ilnd l1embers of the Executive Committee - Meeting ;nS/so FROH: P. B. Flood, Administrator Conservation Land Management Division RE: PROGRESS REPORT CONSERVATION SERVICES AUTHORITY LAND M1\NAGEl>lENT PROGRAM The construction of the new Conservation Services Workshop has begun. This facility will assist the nursery operation in meeting increased production requirements necessitated by the new Urban Management Programs outlined in the watershed Plan. To meet objectives outlined in the Conservation Land Management Program of the Watershed Plan for increased resource management activities on Authority lands, management plans have been prepared for Claireville Conservation Area, Lake St. George Forest and Wildlife Area, Cold Creek Conservation Area, Greenwood Forest and wildlife Area, Bruce's Mill Conservation Area, Pal grave Forest and Wildlife Area and the Albion Hills Conservation Area. Management . plan preparation will continue this fall on additional Authority lands. Stream improvement projects for sediment control and fish habitat improvement are being carried out on approximately 750m of stream on Authority lands. Fencing projects to control cattle access to streams have been completed and tree and shrub plantings will be installed this fall. The Humber Bay East landscape and tree maintenance project has been completed (345 shrubs and 345 B.B. trees) and a landscape project for Bluffer's Park adjacent to the eastern parking lot is scheduled for this fall. Gas monitoring and tree maintenance projects have been carried out at the South Thackeray Sanitary Landfill Site. Phase II landscape project at Thackeray is underway. Wildlife shrub plantings will be carried out this fall at the Glen Haffy, Claireville and Palgrave ~reas. To ensure that proper conservation practices are carried out on Authority lands leased for agricultural purposes, rental agreements are prepared that outline specific conditions to be followed. Six agreements have been prepared that compliment the objectives of the Conservation Land Management Program. PRIVATE LN~DOWNER ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS Site visits related to pond construction, stream improvement and planting assistance programs were carried out for l7.private landowners. Four stream improvement projects have been completed for private landowners and 4 applications remain on file. The second year of the S.P.O.F. prograre has enhanced approximately l200m of streams for cold water fisheries by im- proving habitat and reducing sediment. Four sites have been completed and 4 additional projects of planting and fencing have been scheduled for the fall. Seven private tree spade rentals have been carried out and 7 remain on file for completion this fall. Two Conservation Plans have been completed and 5 additional plans will be completed by year end. CONSERVATION AREA UEVELOPMEnT During the third quarter of 1980, a number of development projects were initiated. At the Bruce's Mill Conscrvation Area, the construction of the washroom extension to the Pancake Pavilion was begun. This included improvemcnts to the refreshment booth as ordered by tile York Region Health Unit. PROGRESS REPOR'f R- 358 Page -2 Also at Bruce's Mill, with the assistance of the Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservati.on Foundation, staff have begun further restoration of the Grist Hill. In excess of $7,000 has been received und the weight scale shelter has been replaced. Staff are currently investigating the potential of securing Wintario funding to aid in this restoration project. Throughout the sunur.er months, the landscape beds have been maintained at the Claireville Beach Area. A major gulley erosion problem has been corrected at the beach area. Further enhancement of this area is identified in the Multi-year Forecast. The Glen Haffy Trout rearing program has continued with the tender awarded for the supply of 45,000 Rainbow Trout Fry for December 1980 delivery. Landscaping around the parking lot and the Trap Range Control Building at the Cold Creek Conservation Area was begun during the third quarter of 1980. This has included seeding, sodding, the planting of calibre, deciduous and coniferous trees and the installation of an interlock stone access area. The major development program for 1980, the Water and Electrical Servicing of the Indian Line Campground, began in September following the end of the campground's most active year to date. Water servicing was installed by Authority staff and a contract has been negotiated for the electrical servicing. Investigation during September at the Claireville Reservoir has indicated that the bass stocked in the spring have spawned successfully and hundreds of bass fingerlings are present. Further stocking is planned in 1981. CONSERVATION AREAS OPERATIONS During the summer period, most Conservation Area activities were of routine operational and maintenance nature. A special program, "A Day on the Escarpment" was held on July 20 at the Glen Haffy Area. Features included a fishing contest for children, displays by the Niagara Escarpment Commission, the Caledon Bruce Trail Club, the Glen Haffy Trout rearing program and Authority Land Management Programs. A special feature on the geology of Glen Haffy was presented by Dr. Walter Tovell. At Cold Creek, the Radio Control Flying Club of Toronto hosted their annual contest at the model aircraft site on August 9/10. A special one day Husky show was held on August 17. Two 20-hour Hunter Education courses were conducted using the Cold Creek range facilities in September. FOllowing receipt of a request from the Ontario Water Ski Association for use of the Claireville Reservoir, a special demonstration of this activity was presented at Claireville on August 20th. Following this, authorization was granted for interim use of the site. The Association operated a limited progra~ which concluded in mid-September. Discussions are presently under- way with the Association to finalize a formal agreement for future use of the Claireville site. A successful canoe program at Claireville has been completed. Group instruc- tion courses increased slightly although total participants were less than 1979. Public instruction courses and attendance increased as did total general canoe rentals. The Windsurfing program operated under permit by Windsurfing Toronto has concluded and a review of the program with the operators is underway. The Albion Hills Family Camping program has concluded with total attendance up 4,270 camper days over last year. The special reduced weekday parking rate program concluded August 29. Ticket sales for the June to August period totalled 3,437 with area totals as follows: Heart Lake - 968; Boyd - 880; Claireville - 634; Bruce's Mill - 499; and Petticoat Creek - 456. B-~59 PROGRESS REPORT Page - 3 The comparison of this attendance to the same period last year is somewhat difficult. Previously, attendance figures have been maintained on a daily basis with no separate figures available for the corresponding time period. Superintendent's were therefore requested to observe weekday evening atten- dance and compare it, based on their experience, with the previous year. At the conclusion of the reduced rate period, all Superintendents concerned were of the opinion that the reduced rate had no significant effect on weekday evening attendance. Division staff participated in 2 radio interviews (CBC and CHFI) on the Glen Haffy "Escarpment Day" and special programs at Claireville and Cold Creek Areas. Flyers were also distributed on the "Escarpment Day". . Again, this year, the Experience Program contributed significantly to Conser- vation Areas operation and maintenance with 27 students employed in Conservation Areas. The following table compares attendance figures for the period of July 1st to September 30, 1980 and the total attendance for the year to September 30, 1980 with the same periods for 1979. July to September attendance decreased 24,603 visitors or 3.8% while the total attendance has decreased 85,708 or 8.3%. !2!Q. 1979 July 1- Total to July 1- Total to ~ Sept. 30 Sept. 30 Sept. 30 Sept. 30 Albion Hills 73,171 116,578 79 , 544 152,871 Boyd 104,799 155,868 92,281 152,414 Bruce's Mill 85 , 491 144,536 102,826 181,652 C1airevi11e 78,808 106,066 73,440 100,764 Claremont 5,637 18,851 9,297 25,603 Cold Creek 13,421 25,232 15,020 29,626 Glen Haffy 31,606 64,952 28,508 57,474 Greenwood 39 , 811 62,077 33,852 55,552 Heart Lake 63,722 103,825 73,547 111,440 Humber Trails 660 1,622 2,541 4 , 26 3 Petticoat Creek 78,054 92,801 78,839 9 8 , 707 Indian Line 37,723 44,787 43, 670 48,960 Woodbridge 6,996 12,044 7,186 10,986 Palgrave 49 1,433 - 6,018 619,948 950,622 644,551 1,036,330 U-jbU PROGRESS REPORT Page -4 FINANCIAL STATEMEN'l' - JANUARY 1 to SEPTEMBER 30, 1980 YR.

The contract for the Indian Line Campground hydro servicing has been let to the limit of the available budget. The Bruce's Mill washroom extension is in pro- gress. Additional funding to accommodate requirements of the York Region Health Unit are identified in the 1981 Budget. Private Lands Assistance programs over-expenditure will be offset by additional revenues. Authority Land Management Program budget estimates will be met. Conservation Areas Operations revenue is projected to be $182,000 below budget estimates. This shortfall is primarily due to lower attendance resulting from poor weather conditions particularily during the winter season. t-lhile still considerable, the revenue shortfall has improved by $58,000 as a result of greater than anticipated revenue received during August and September. To offset this shortfall, spending was reduced by terminating most seasonal staff September 1st and by utilizing Area staff on other projects during the fall. These actions have realized a $97,000 savings in anticipated spending. This will leave a projected shortfall of $85,000 at year end. /lp 1980.10.20.

GARRE'l'T, ADMINISTRATOR, WATER RESOURCE DIVISION RE: WATER RESOURCE DIVISION PROGRESS REPORT FROM JULY l, 1980, TO SEPTEl'lBER 30, 1980 COLONEL SAMUEL BOIS SMITH PARK The decision of the Environmental Assessment Board is anticipated to be received around the end of October. HUMBER BAY WEST The contract for installation of site services is well underway, with comple- tion anticipated by mid November. The interior shoreline protection has been completed and the rough grading of the site is approximately 95% complete. Final armouring of two of the head- lands is underway and will be completed by year end. HUMBER BAY EAST A very successful opening was held on August 29 at which time the park was transferred to Metro Toronto Parks and Property Department for operation and maintenance. WESTERN BEACHES A property survey has been completed and a formal request'has been submitted to Metro and the City for transfer of all publicly owned lands to the Authority. BLUFFERS PARK PHASE II Landfilling of the interior breakwater was completed in August with the construction of the core of hardpoint number 8. Federal assistance for the final armouring of the headland was received and the placement of all stone material should be complete by the end of October. Landfilling of the island area for the Bluffers Park Boating Federation is continuing, with completion expected prior to the 1981 boating season. The boating federation is preparing plans for dock construction in 1981 with a goal of adding a maximum of 250 slips. If the federation members are able to achieve that objective, the mooring capacity of the island will be reached next year. Discussions are ongoing with the federation, its four member clubs, and Metro Parks to finalize the division of the island land base. Erosion control work is underway in one of the small ravines adjacent to the park to stabilize the area and reduce the volume of silt which is carried down into the park. Dredging of the sand from the northwest corner of the basin is underway in preparation for the dock construction by the boating federation next spring.

GARRETT, ADMINISTRATOR, WATER RESOURCE DIVISION RE: WATER RESOURCE DIVISION PROGRESS REPORT FROM JULY 1, 1980, TO SEPTEMBER 30, 1980 EAST POINT The final report and drawings for the site plan preparation for East Point Park have been received from Hough Stansbury Michalski and Associates Limited. Discussions are now underway with Metro Parks Department regarding implementa- tion which is expected to begin in 1981. ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING The second diving survey of all landfill sites is approximately 70% complete. Samples of sediment have been obtained around the landfills for contaminant analysis, and fish samples have also been obtained for contaminant analysis. ASHBRIDGE'S BAY Sewer, watermain and hydro connections to the North Ashbridge's Bay Boating Community are approximately 95% complete. AJAX WATERFRONT Grading and cultivation of the lands between Harwood Avenue and the filtration plant are underway in preparation for seeding in the spring of 1981. SHORELINE MANAGEMENT The major projects along Crescentwood Road and Kingsbury Crescent were delayed this year due to difficulties in obtaining title to the shoreline from all affected property owners. However, work was commenced at Crescentwood and two groynes were completed along the shoreline west of the park. It appears that if the Shoreline Management Program is to be successful, some change in policy regarding owner participation will be required. It may be possible to accept easements and cash contributions towards the cost of the work rather than title to the shoreline. The Authority has agreed to undertake shoreline protection work required for two Borough of Etobicoke parkettes. Work is expected to begin immediately at the end of Superior Avenue and Norris Crescent, with completion anticipated by the end of the year. A final draft of the first stage of the detailed geotechnical investigations by Geocon Limited has been received and discussion regarding the second phase of the work is ongoing. 1980.10.21 BED/jl FINANCIAL STATEMENT TO SEPTEMBER 30, 1980 Estimated Final Year To Date Year To Date % of Budget Total Expenditures Site Expenditures Commitments Appropriation Budget Used at Dec. 31/80 Colonel Sam Smith $188,690.61 0 $188,690.61 $ 200,000 94 $ 200,000 Humber Bay West 129,263.93 0 129,263.93 650,250 19 650,250 Humber Bay East 419,641.36 0 419,641.36 400,000 104 400,000 Western Beaches 0 0 0 0 -- 0 Ashbridge's Bay 28,293.55 $ 10,000.00 38,293.55 40,000 95 40,000 Bluffers Park 170,947.35 0 170,947.35 660,000 25 660,000 East Point Park 928.93 0 928.93 0 -- 0 Petticoat Creek 22,701. 33 0 22,701. 33 20,000 113 20,000 Aquatic Park 10,461.14 0 10,461.14 50,000 20 50,000 Studies/Salaries 59,519.60 0 59,519.60 80,000 74 80,000 Studies/Monitoring 21,477.66 0 21,477.66 80,000 26 80,000 Shoreline Management (including 308,484.21 0 308,484.21 600,000 51 600,000 Maintenance) Land Acquisition 211,819.72 1,740 213,559.72 350,000 61 350,000 PROGRAM TOTALS $1,572,229.39 $ 11,740 $1,583,969.39 $3,130,250 50 $3,130,250 COM."'1ENTS : Although it appears at this time that the budget is considerably underspent, a substantial amount of work is underway for which no invoices have yet been paid.

Operations and Maintenance - Community Relations Information and Education Although we incurred additional expenditures when an employee left Cold Creek and at Albion Hills Conservation Field Centre due to furnace repairs and high food service costs, our forecast to December 31, 1980 is 5% less than budget. Revenues are 8% lower than budget largely as a result of lower than estimated revenues at the Kortright Centre for Conservation and a greater portion of anticipated revenue from the Tours being credited to the operation of Black Creek Pioneer Village. The combined net effect on the operations of this Division, as forecasted to December 31, 1980 is a deficit of $27,612. B.

B-389 SCHEDULE "A" TO: THE CHAIro~ AND ME~~ERS OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE, M.T.R.C.A. - Meeting #19/80 FROM: MR. W. A. McLEAN, DIRECTOR, PLANNING AND POLICY RE: ADDENDUM TO THE SUPPLE~mNTARY PROJECT, INTERIM WATER AND RELATED LAND MANhGEMENT PROJECT 1979-1981 FOR THE DREDGING OF THE KEATING CHANNEL, DON RIVER The Authority's request to the Ministry of Natural Resources for approval of \ the Supplementary Project for the dredging of the Keating Channel culminated with a conditional approval requiring the preparation of an Environmental Assessment. The original description of the Supplementary Project did not include funding for the preparation of an Environmental Assessment and therefore it is essential that an Addendum to that Project be adopted which provides for additional funding to cover the costs of the Assessment preparation. At Meeting #17/80, the Executive Committee adopted the following recommendati.ons: "THAT dredging proceed immediately and continue as long as weather permits in 1980 and that it resume as early as possible in 1981: and THAT an Addendum to the Supplementary Project for the Dredging of the Keating Chaunel be prepared for approval by Metropolitan Toronto, the Province of Ontario and The Toronto Harbour Commissioners, outlining the Environmental Assessment components on the basis that the funding for the Assessment is shared equally between the MTRCA and The Toronto Harbour Commissioners: and . THAT the Authority immediately begin the data collection and background studies required for the Environmental Assessment, to be funded from the unspent Authority and Toronto Harbour Commissioners 1980 dredging allocation: AND FURTHER THAT The Toronto Harbour Commissioners be requested to approve this funding allocation." An Addendum has now been prepared which identifies a preliminary framework for the Environmental Assessment and documents the proposed cost sharing formula. The additional funding required will constitute an increase in the 1981 budget: however, in order to start the Environmental Assessment in 1980, funds will be reallocated from the allocation for dredgin9. The conditional approval and the Addendum refer to a May 31, 1981 completion date for the Environmental Assessment. The consultants being considered to assist in the preparation of the Assessment have been advised of this timing and will confirm to the Authority in the near future whether or not this date can be met. The Ministry of Natural Resources has been advised that the B-390 To: The Executive Committee - Meeting #19/80 From: Mr. McLean, Director, Planning and Policy Re: Addendum to the Supplementary Project, Interim Water and Related Land ~Ianagement Project 1979-1981, for the Dredging of the Keating Channel, Don River PAGE 2 Authority is concerned about the short period of time available to do the necessary work and if it becomes apparent that the proposed timing cannot be , met, the Minister of the Environment will be advised at the earliest opportunity. RECOMl-IENDATIONS IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT: The Addendum to the Supplementary Project, Interim Water and Related Land Management Project 1979-1981, for the Dredging of the Keating Channel be adopted: and THAT the following action be taken: 1. The Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto be requested to approve the Addendum, be designated as the benefiting municipality and contribute 45% of the Authority's share of the cost of the Environmental Assessment preparation: 2. The Province of Ontario be requested to approve the Addendum to the Supplementary Project and provide a grant of 55% of the Authority's share of the cost of the Assessment preparation: 3. The Toronto Harbour Commissioners be requested to provide 50% of the total cost of the Environmental Assessment: and 4. Authority officials be authorized to take the necessary action required in connection with the Addendum to the Supplementary Project, including execution of any necessary documents. Attachment: 1980.11.05 BED/rod B-39l ADDENDUM TO A SUPPLEMENTARY PROJECT TO THE INTERIM WATER AND RELATED LAND MANAGEMENT PROJECT 1979-1981 FOR THE DREDGING OF THE KEATING CHANNEL - DON RIVER , 1. SUBJECT This Addendum to the Supplementary Project outlines the background which led to the requirement for an Environmental Assessment to b~ prepared for the dredging of the Keating Channel. The Addendum provides a general framework for the Environmental Assessment and outlines the funding required for the work. 2. DETAILED DESCRI~TION (a) PURPOSE -- The purpose of this Addendum to the Supplementary Project is to describe the general nature of an Environmental Assessment required to examine the flooding and other problems related to the silting of the Kaating Channel at the mouth of the Don River. The Addendum describes the funding formula required to cover the costs of the assessment. (b) BACKGROUND The Supplementary Project for the Dredging of the Keating Channel was put forward to: n .... provide part of the funding required to dredge the Keating Channel at the mouth of the Don River in order to minimize the potential flood hazard: minimize pollution to the Inner Harbour: and make the northeast corner of the harbour usable for shipping." In order to implement this Project, the Authority required the approval of the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto and the Province of Ontario. Approval for funding of the Project by Metro Toronto has been received on an annual basis, first at a meeting of Metro Toronto Council on June 19, 1979 and then the 1980 funding was approved at a meeting of Council on January 19, 1980. The approval of the Province of Ontario for the first three years of the proposed dredging was provided by M.A. C 48/80 which the Authority received June 26, 1980. The provincial approval of the Project is subject to the Authority preparing an Environmental Assessment as an agent of the Ministry of Natural Resources. The Environmental Assessn,ent is to be submitted to the Minister of the Environment by May 31, 1981. B-392 - 2 - Emergency dredging is required to alleviate the immediate potential for flooding due to the reduced capacity of the Keating Channel to carry flood flows. In order for this emergency dredging to proceed, the Minister of the Environment has granted exemptions for the dredging and disposal of the material under the Environmental Assessment Act and the Environmental Protection Act. Both of the exemptions apply until March 31, 1982 subject to an Environmental Assessment of the flooding and other problems related to the silting of the , Keating Channel being submitted by May 31, 1981. (c) ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FRAMEWORK The general guidelines for carrying out an environmental assessment are contained within Section 5(3) of the Environmental Assessment Act. These have been used as a guide in establishing the framework which follows. Detailed terms of reference for the assessment studies will be required once approval for the Addendum is in place. This environmental assessment can be divided into two major sections: - examination of the problems resulting from the siltation; and - an examination of alternative solutions to the problems identified. The silting of the !.ower Don River, Keating Channel and the Inner Harbour is considered to have three major impacts - on flood control, on the environment and on navigation. The first task then is to examine these potential problems. Problem Evaluation (a) Flood Control - determination of the impact of silting on the ability to control flooding. (b) Environment - determination of the impact of silting on water and sediment quality and associated biological communities. (c) Navigation - determination of the impact of silting on the ability to use the Keating Channel and Inner Harbour for shipping and other marine related functions. In order to fully examine the potential problems resulting from silting, an attempt must also be made to: (d) determine the quantities and sources of sediment and contaminants generated now and in the future. B-393 - 3 - Based upon the analysis of the impact of the silting of the Lower Don River, the Keating Channel and the Inner Harbour, an examination of possible solutions is required. Although possible solutions for each major impact must be examined as a separate unit, it is also necessary to adopt a comprehensive approach to solving all the problems resulting from the silting of the Lower Don River, the Keating Channel , and the Inner Harbour. In this regard then, it would be the intent to arrive at an optimized solution for all the problems identified. Alternative Solutions In order to fully examine possible solutions for silting related problems in the future, an examination must be made to: (a) determine the feasibility of controlling sediment and pollutants at their source, both in terms of quantity and quality. Given the existence of a problem at this point in time: (b) Flood Control - an examination of alternative remedial measures would address the following: - do nothing - establishment of a disaster relief fund - acquisition - dredging - protective dyking and/or channelization - use of flood damage reduction measures - any combination of the above (c) Environment - an examination of alternative measures would address the following: - do nothing - dredging (d) Navigation - an examination of alternative measures would address the following: - do nothing - relocation of port uses - dredging - alternative means of accessing port uses If it is determined that the "do nothing" alternative is not acceptable, then an examination of alternative methods of implementing the selected solution(s) would be required. B-394 - 4 - As a result of the foregoing investigations, if it is determined that the silting of the Lower Don River, the Keating Channel and the Inner Harbour causes major problems, and if it is determined that the solution to all the major problems is the physical removal of the silt, then an examination of the dredging and disposal process would be required. . Alternative Methods of Dredging - the following alternative methods of dredging would be examined and assessed: - mechanical - dipper - bucket - drag line - others - hydraulic Alternative Mechanisms for Disposal - the following alternative mechanisms for the disposal of dredged material would be examined and assessed: - disposal of the material at a sanitary landfill or other similar disposal site - disposal of the material by open water dumping - disposal of the material at a waterfront endikement area. Alternative Means of Transporting Dredged Material - dependent upon the method of dredging selected, an examination of alternative means of transporting dredged material would be required and the alternatives would be assessed: - trucking - scow - hydraulic pipeline Alternative Disposal Location - based upon the selected mechanism for disposal, an examination of alternative locations would be required which would include an assessment of the capacity of the sites and their impact on the surrounding environment B-395 - 5 - - also, subject to the determination of the selected disposal location, it may be necessary to further examine the ultimate use of the disposal area with consideration for existing and proposed uses for the surrounding area. , In carrying out this environmental assessment, consideration will be given at all stages to economic, environmental and engineering implications. Due to the extensive scope of this environmental assessment and the desire to have it completed and submitted for approval as soon as possible, the MTR~, must seek the cooperation of other agencies whose areas of responsibility include expertise significant to matters raised in the assessment: for example, The Toronto Harbour Commissioners wi.th respect to shipping, the Ministry of Natural Resources with respect to fisheries, and the Ministry of the' Environment with respect to water and sediment quality and control. 3. COST/FINANCING The cost of the preparation of the assessment document is difficult to estimate accurately sincs it is highly dependent on availability of data and consulting proposals. However, based on past experience, it is estimated that an assessment of this complexity will cost in the order of $300,000. This amount does not cover any additional costs which would be incurred should the . assessment have to go through the environmental hearing process. The funding of the assessment study is proposed to be equally split between the MTRCA and The Toronto Harbour Commissioners. It is expected that all the funds will be expended during 1981. The Toronto HarbOur Commissioners $150,000.00 The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority $150,000.00 The MTRCA will fund its share of the study on the following basis: The Province of Ontario - 55% or $82,500.00 The Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto - 45% or $67,500.00 The Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto is designated as the benefiting municipality. , TO: Elcecutive Camlittee, M.T.R.C.A., #1'9/80 PAGE I RE: ACninistration of Ontario Regulation 735/73 - July, August, September and October, 1980.

CARRIED: SECTION I THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE SUBMITS THE FOLLOWING ITEMS FOR CONSIDERATION OF THE AUTHORITY AND RECOMMENDS THEIR ADOPTIONz 1. WATERSHED PLAN AND PROGRAMS -Revisions A staff report was presented advising that at Meeting #3/80, held Friday, May 9, 1980, the Authority received a report and recommendation from the Executive Committee regarding the Watershed Plan and its 20 constituent Programs. In this regard, it was resolved: "THAT the Watershed Plan, as amended and appended as Schedule "A" of the Minutes of Executive Committee Meeting #5/80, held Wednesday, April 16, 1980, be received and endorsed: AND FURTHER THAT the Watershed Plan be circulated to the Ministry of Natural Resources, to the Authority's member municipalities, and to the area municipalities, for their comment and endorsement." In addition to circulating the Watershed Plan and Program texts, the Authority requested an opportunity to make presentations to municipal Councils to explain and discuss the proposals. The following groups requested and received Watershed Plan presentations: . Cabinet Committee on . Borough of Etobicoke Resources Development . City of North York . Metropolitan Toronto . Borough of East York . Region of Durham . City of Brampton . Region of Peel . TOwnship of Uxbridge . Region of York . Ministry of Natural Resources, . Borough of York Central Region Written responses have been received from the following: . Durham Region . City of Mississauga . Town of Ajax . Metropolitan Toronto . Town of Pickering . Borough of York . York Reg ion . Borough of East York . Town of Richmond Hill . Ministry of Natural Resources . City of Brampton . Ministry of Transportation and Communications -3- B-403 Authority staff has met with municipal representatives and with the Ministry of Natural Resources to resolve those concerns arising from lack of clarity within the Plan and Program documents. A number of changes have been made in the documents to clarify the Authority's objectives without affecting the intent of the proposals. The revised Watershed Plan and the specific revisions to each Program are enclosed with your agenda. The following summarizes the responses received and the amendments made. Subsequent to the Authority adopting the Plan and Program revisions, final documents will be prepared for distribution. THE WATERSHED PLAN The Region of York and the City of Mississauga stated the document was lengthy and would benefit from editing. Staff has revised the Plan and Programs to make them more succinct. As the Programs are, however, intended to be read as separate documents, each is complete and may, if all ten are read, contain certain overlapping information. The Plan itself has been greatly reduced in those sections summarizing the Programs. Metropolitan Toronto and the Ministry of Natural Resources expressed concern that, while the Plan and Program documents outlined the Program Objectives, there was not sufficient discussion to clearly establish the Authority's overall goals and objectives. Both requested that clarification be given to the interrelationships amongst Programs and the priorization of Programs. In response, Sections 5.1.1, 5.1.2 (pages 22-31) and Section 5.12 (pages 65-69) have been expanded to provide the required clarification. Changes to the text of the Plan have also been made to reflect changes to the ten Programs. FLOOD CONTROL PROGRAM A number of changes were made by staff to clarify the objectives of the Authority. These include page 3l, objective (a): page 32, objective (f): page 38, criteria (c): page 39 (e): page 40 (c): and page 41, paragraph (2), and the sections dealing with flood vlunerable areas and flood damage centres. A number of these changes reflect discussions with Region of York staff. . "Metropolitan Toronto requested staff to review those sections of the Programs requesting municipal cooperation and define specifically the municipal mechanisms to be employed. Changes in this Program to accommodate Metro's request are found on page 32 (e). Metro also requested the Authority to more clearly state its objectives regarding hazard lands. This has been achieved by expanding the introductory paragraph to Section 5.1.3, page 38. The Ministry of Natural Resources requested clarification of Authority flood COntrol objectives in areas draining less than 1300 ha. Section (a), page 38 has been revised to accomplish this request. Section (b), page 39 has also been revised, as requested by the Ministry, to ensure reference to the Regional Storm for any new development in damage centres. In defining damage centres, and proposing policies specific to them, Authority staff feel these are within the intent of the Provincial Flood Plain Criteria for special policy areas. Since the criteria specific to these areas are not finalized, and since designation as special policy areas will require Provincial approvals, the Authority should request the Ministry to designate the damage centres defined by the Authority as special policy areas within the intent of the Provincial Flood Plain Criteria. The Borough of York, the City of Brampton and the Town of Richmond Hill commented specific to damage centres within their jurisdiction. As the Authority's work in these areaas will be part of the implementation of its policy proposals, no changes in text were requi r'ed. Discussions with each municipality respecting damage centres will occur prior to works being undertaken. Further site specific study of each area will also be under- taken in consultation with the affected municipalities. The Town of Pickering suggested that consideration be given to owner contribution to the cost of remedial works under this Program. Under The COnservation Authorities Act, the Authority receives Provincial grants and levies its member municipalities to carry out works proposed. The municipality may raise its levy requirement as it chooses and, therefore, the option of charging owners would be a municipal prerogative. This comment required no change in the text of the Program. B-404 -4- The Ministry of Transportation and Communications requested a change to page 38A (d)(ii) to provide for some flexibility with respect to the design of structures. This has been done. The Costs and Financial Implications section of this Program has been revised to reflect the Authority's new program budget format. EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL PROGRAM The Region of York requested clarification regarding the regulations to be applied under this Program. Page 13 (a) has been revised to clarify this point. Page 13 (b) and (c) have been expanded in response to Metropolitan Toronto's request for clarification of the type of municipal cooperation required. Page 16 (a) has been expanded in response to Metropolitan Toronto, the Borough of York, and Region of York comments respecting the area of concern to the Authority within this Program. Page 17 (c) and (e) have ben amended by staff to be consistent with changes in other parts of the Program and in the Storm Water Management Program. Page 21 (a) has been revised to enable greater flexibility in the implementation of the Program and to recognize the Authority's past involve- ment in providing remedial measures. The Costs and Financial Implications section has been amended to conform to the Authority's program budget format. LAND ACQUISITION PROGRAM Those sections underlined on pages 4, 4A, 5, 6 and 13 are changes and additions requested by Metropolitan Toronto, the Region of York, and the Town of Richmond Hill to clarify Authority land acquisition objectives and mechanisms both within and beyond this Program. Pages 6A, 7 and 10 have been amended by staff to provide greater flexibility with respect to defining lands for acquisition. The change on page 15 has been made, by staff, to conform to maintenance costs identified by the Land Management staff. STORM WATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM This Program, as the major new initiative proposed by the Authority, generated the most comment by both municipalities and the Ministry of Natural Resources. In order to respond to these comments, staff held numerous meetings with the affected groups. The overall concern expressed related to the implementation of the Program, specifically to the responsibilities for preparation of Master Drainage Plans, and to the incorporation of Authority objectives into the planning process. To address these concerns, the Program text has been re-written to clearly state responsibilities for the various components in the implementation of Program objectives. In particular, the role of the Authority in preparing Part I Master Drainage Plans has been defined. WATERSHED RECREATION PROGRAM Page 17 of the Program has been amended, at the request of the Ministry of Natural Resources, to address the provision of camping opportunities. Page 21 has been amended to reflect the Authority's new program budget format. Page iv has been amended to clarify that the study of the Boyd Area will be a review and update of the existing plan rather than the preparation of a new Master Plan. CONSERVATION LAND MANAGEMENT PROGRAM Changes to pages 2, 7, and 17 have been made on the basis of suggestions by the Ministry of Natural Resources. The discussion of Resource Management Tracts on pages 20 and 21 has been amended, by staff, to more clearly define Authority objectives. -5- B-405 The Costs and Financial Implications section has been revised to reflect the Authority's program budget format. SHORELINE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM Objective (a), page 19, has been amended in response to Metropolitan Toronto's request for clarification regarding municipal cooperation. Pages 23 and 27 have been amended, by staff, to clarify the Authority's interests. LAKE ONTARIO WATERFRONT DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM Page 29 has been amended, by staff, for clarification. HERITAGE CONSERVATION PROGRAM The Costs and Financial Implications section has been amended to be consistent with the format utilized in all other Programs. COMMUNITY RELATIONS PROGRAM The Costs and Financial Implications section has been amended to reflect the Authority's program budget format.

B-429 - 8 - MANAGEMENT PHILOSOPHY It is the intent of The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority to fu~ther the conservation, restoration, development and management of natural resources within its jurisdiction. In this regard, applications under The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority's fill, construction and alterations to waterways regulations should be cognizant of the natural setting in any design, and, should recognize the significance of maintaining natural functions (e.g. accommodation of flood waters, water recharge and storage, etc.), where appropriate. OBJECTIVES The objectives of the regulations adopted by The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority are to: (1) Prevent loss of life, and property and structural damage through the minimization of hazardous and unnecessary development of flood plains. (2) Reduce public and private expenditure for emergency operation, evacuation and restoration. (3) Control alterations to waterways which would impact channel. capacity by increasing flood heights and/or velocities, thus causing upstream or downstream problems. (4) Control the placing or dumping of fill in flood plains which would affect the ability of the flood plains to perform their natural function of safely accommodating flood flows. (5) Control the aggravation or creation of slope instabilities through the control of filling and the reduction of soil erosion. (6) Control the placing or dumping of fill so as to limit pollution or other degradation. LIMITS OF REGULATED AREA The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority's Regulations consist of three major components: - development in flood plains - placing or dumping of fill - alterations to waterways B-430 - 9 - (a) The limits of the valley flood plain shall be the Regional Storm flood lines as shown on The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority's mapping, or calculated in a similar manner based on the Regional Storm definition for other rivers and streams for which flood line mapping is not available. For watercourses draining 125 hectares or greater, the area between the Regional Storm flood lines shall be considered regulated flood plain lands by The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority. (b) The limits of the lands regulated for the placing or dumping of fill shall be defined as that area between the Fill Regulation Lines on The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority mapping. (c) The limits of the area regulated for alteration to waterways shall be defined as the existing channel of any river, creek, stream or watercourse within the jurisdiction of The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority. OPERATIONAL CRITERIA In implementing its regulations, The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority will be guided by the philosophy, goals and objectives of the Watershed Plan and the component Programs. In addition, the following criteria will also serve to guide The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority: DEVELOPMENT IN FLOOD PLAINS It is the intent of The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority to prevent the creation of additional flood prone development through the application of regulations. However, The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority realizes that certain activities have little impact on the ability of the flood plain to safely pass flood flows, also, certain essential services will, out of necessity, have to encI'oach upon the flood plain. Further, certain flood prone development presently exists that is of a size or nature that acquisition is not feasible from an economical and/or social view point. Therefore, in its reyiew of development proposals, the Authority will be guided by the following flood control criteria: (I) Undeveloped Flood Plains (a) Occupation of the flood plain for activities which do not require alteration to the flood plain and which do not interfere with the primary function of the flood plain are considered suitable. The following land uses are representative of appropriate activities: - agriculture - outdoor recreation/open space - gardens/nurseries/arboretums - other similar non structural uses. B-43l - 10 - Structures or buildings required for or associated with these activities may be permitted in the flood plain but must be located outside of the lOO year flood zone provided that no potential for loss of life or substantial structural damage connected with such structures exists. (b) In keeping with the overall Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority objective of maintaining the valleys in a natural state, the use of flood plains for parking lots will be discouraged. However, if the need to utilize flood plains for parking lot purposes can be demonstrated, then parking lots must be located outside of the 100 year flood zone, and, in addition, must meet other parking lot criteria established by The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority which takes into account flow velocity and depth of flooding. Further, the construction of parking lots cannot involve the introduction of fill material so as to raise the elevation of the parking lot to conform to the Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority criteria. (c) It is recognized that certain utilities or services such as storm and sanitary sewers, natural gas or oil pipilines, hydro corridors, foot paths and transportation links will, from time to time, be required to cross or use the flood plain. Such uses should not impede flood flows or be located in such a manner as to cause adverse effects to the flood plain upstream or downstream. (i) The construction of pipe or service lines should maintain the predevelopment configuration of the flood plain and minimize disturbance to existing vegetation. Pipe or service lines parallel to the flood plain should be constructed and protected so as to prevent scouring and possible failure at a later date. In addition, storm sewer outfalls should be designed to provide adequate protection to the river banks. (ii) Where feasible, bridge or structural abutments should be located outside of the flood plain to minimize obstruction to water flow. (iii) Where structures are necessary within the flood plain the structure should be designed so that overtopping or flanking can occur with a minimum of damage. Major bridges not designed for the Regional Flood should have their approach ramp(s) designed as spillways. Smaller footbridges should be designed to withstand blockage and allow for spill. (d) Spill zones occur in areas where the valley is ill-defined resulting in a broad, uncontained exit for flood waters. As a consequence, it is extremely difficult to accurately determine the limit or depth of ~lnn~in"~ B-432 - 11 - The exact delineation of the flood plain for a spill zone shall be determined by The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority on a site specific basis. The artificial delineation of this flood plain will take into account the average width of the natural flood plain upstream and downstream, and, possible upstream and downstream effects. Development will not be permitted in the defined flood plain except for those activities identified previously. Prior to development in the remaining portion of the spill zone, that area should be protected to the level defined by the Regional Storm. No new development will be permitted until protective works have been installed to the satisfaction of The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority. (2 ) Developed Flood Plains Flood plain areas on which there is a concentration of development which forms an integral part of an existing community have been defined by The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority as flood damage centres. In such areas infilling and redevelopment may occur from time to time. The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority will identify the location and extent of damage centres in the watersheds and will undertake a program of remedial works and/or acquisition to provide protection to a level such that the risk of flooding does not exceed 50% as a minimum. Further development within a damage centre will be governed by the following criteria: (a) The location and extent of damage centres will be determined by the Authority in consultation with the appropriate municipality(ies). (b) Within a damage centre, all new structures or buildings must be protected to the degree that the risk of flooding is no higher than that established by policy. As a general guideline, structures or buildings will not be subjected to flooding under the Regional Storm. However, where it is demonstrated that this level of protection is technically not achievable, then as a minimum, structures or buildings will not be subjected to a risk of flooding over their assumed life of lOO years, in excess of 25%. Several flood damage reduction techniques can be applied to achieve this level of risk, including filling, elimination of openings, and strengthening of foundations. (c) Not withstanding criterion (b), no development, redevelopment or additions will be permitted where they will be subjected to flows which due to their velocity and/or depth would be a hazard to life or susceptible to major structural damage as a result of a flood less than or equal to the Regional Storm. B-433 - 12 - (d) For the development or redevelopment of all or part of a damage centre that is also a spill zone, the spill zone should be protected to reduce the risk of flooding to the required level prior to any development or redevelopment. Every attempt should be made in the grading of spill zones to allow for the passage of flood water through streets without adverse effects on buildings. PLACING OR DUMPING OF FILL Within The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority's fill regulation lines, the placing or dumping of fill, whether originating on the site or elsewhere, which in the opinion of The Metropolitan and Region Conservation Authority impacts the control of flooding or pollution or the conservation of land will be controlled. The filling of a flood plain can, on a cumulative basis, have a major impact on the ability of the flood plain to perform its function of safely accommodating flood flows. The placing or dumping of fill if not properly secured or vegetated can result in surface erosion and eventual deposition in the rivers and streams. Filling can impact the conservation of land by aggravating or creating an erosion problem. In addition to ensuring that the fill is well vegetated, it must also be properly compacted, well drained and protected from undercutting, where required. In addition to the foregoing, any proposal for the placing or dumping of fill shall consider the following: (a) The incorporation of erosion-sediment controls for fill related work. Such controls could include but not necessarily be limited to the following: - temporary vegetation of stock-piled earth and exposed construction sites - retention of vegetation buffer strips - diversion ditches for runoff - sediment traps and basins - temporary drainage contouring - straw bale filters, particularly in proximity to watercourses - storm water management. (b) The detailing of the type of fill to be used, the drain mechanisms to be incorporated, and the protective works to be installed so as to prevent failure or slipage of the fill. (c) Any proposed fill related work shall take into consideration the natural surroundings and topographic features. B-434 - 13 - ALTERATIONS TO WATERWAYS Alterations to the natural state of a watercourse can result in elevated flood heights and/or flow velocities which in turn can result in disastrous or expensive problems. Therefore, any proposed alteration to a watercourse must give consideration to the foregoing. Where it can be demonstrated that an alteration to a waterway is required, The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority supports the use of natural channel design concepts. The basic aim of natural channel design is to create a stream channel analogous to a configuration which would occur under natural conditions. In general, this means that the channel is constructed as a meandering low flow channel within a floodway. The bed slope in the low flow section is such that under base flow conditions the channel bed remains stablel deposition is in equilibrium with erosion, and no changes result from normal flow conditions. In addition, curves and meanders are either protected or designed to remain stable under normal conditions. The floodway is designed to carry high level flows, and is primarily intended to ensure safe discharge of major flood flows. It also serves to contain the low flow channel and protect it from encroachment. 8":435 APPENDIX I FILL SCHEDULES B-436 - 14 - SCHEDULE 1 That part of the area over which The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority has jurisdiction comprising that part of the watershed of the Etobicoke Creek extending northerly from Lake Ontario to: (a) the southerly limit of Ambler Drive in the City of Mississauga on that tributary of the Etobicoke Creek known as the Little Etobicoke Creek; and (b) the west half of Lot 19 in Concession 3, W.II.S. and the east half of Lot 26 in Concession 1, W.lI.S. in the Town of Caledon on the west branch of the Etobicoke Creek; and (c) the east half of Lot 11 in Concession 3, E.H.S. in the Town of Brampton on the east branch of the Etobicoke Creek as shown delineated by the fill regulation line on maps filed in the office of the Registrar of Regulations at Toronto as Nos. to , both inclusive.

THE METROPOLITAN TORONTO AND REGION CONSERVATION AUTHORlTY: R. Grant Henrterson Chairman Kenneth G. Higgs Secretary-Treasurer DATED at Downsview, this day of 198 . B-440 APPENDIX 2 DEFINITION OF TERMS 8-441 - 18 - DEFINITIONS In addition to the definitions contained within the "Interpretation" section of the Regulation, the following terms are frequently used: BACKWATER CALCULATION This is the calculation of the flood levels taking into account the volume of water ( flows) and the channel geometrYI including man-made structures or restrictions such as bridges, culverts, etc. FLOW VELOCITY Flow velocity is the speed of the flowing water. This will vary depending on where within the flood plain or channel the velocity is measured. Generally, flow velocities are greatest within the central portion of the channel and decrease to the edge of the flood plain. FLOW DEPTH Flow depth is the depth of the water at any particular location within the flood plain or channel. FREE BOARD Free board is the distance between the top of any berm, dyke, dam or edge of a no development zone and the design level. FREQUENCY (RETURN PERIOD) The frequency of an event is a statistical indication of the rate at which a specific event occurs over a given period of time. For example a 1 in 10 yr. flood would occur on the average once every lO years. However, it should be noted that it is possible to experience more than one 10 yr. flood within a lO yr. period. PROBABILITY The Probability of an event is another way of defining the frequency of an event. The probability of a 1 in 10 yr. flood is l/IO or O.l. Therefore a 1:l0 yr. flood event has a statistical probability of 0.1 of being equalled or exceeded in anyone year. It can also be said that there is a lOt chance of the 10 yr. flood occurring in any one yea~. RISK Risk is defined as the change that is associated with any action where harm or loss can be encountered. The risk associated with building in the flood plain can be assigned a percentage value based upon the degree of flood susceptibility of the proposed development. For example, there is a 39% risk that a development within the 100 yr. flood line would be damaged over' a 50 year period. STORM EVENT A Storm Event is defined as a rainfall event where the amount of rain that falls is measured as opposed to the volume of runoff. FLOOD EVENT A Flood Event is based upon the measurement or calculation of the volume of runoff or peak flow that results from any given rainfall or snowmelt. It should be noted, for example, that a IS year storm event does not necessarily produce a IS year flood event. B-442 - 19 - REGIONAL STORM The Regional Storm is the storm used for regulation purposes as defined by the Authority. The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority has defined the Regional Storm for the valleys as that storm which is based on the rainfall that fell during Hurricane Hazel. The Regional Storm utilized for the waterfront is that combination of high water, wind set up and wave uprush that produces the Regional Flood. The Regional Storm for the waterfront is based on a 1:100 year event. REGIONAL FLOOD The Regional Flood is the flood elevation that is produced by the runoff that results from rainfall as defined by the Regional Storm. The Regional Flood for the waterfront is the flood elevation produced by the Regional Storm for the waterfront. 100 YEAR FLOOD This is the flood that based on historical data occurs on the average once in 100 years. It is based on peak flows as opposed to rainfall amounts. SPILL ZONE Spill Zone is defined as an area where the valley is ill defined resulting in a broad, uncontained exit fox flood waters. As a result, it is difficult to accurately determine the limit or depth of flooding. DAMAGE CENTRE A damage centre is an existing developed area that is susceptible to loss of life and/or property damage as a result of flooding up to the Regional Flood event. However, due to excessive acquisition costs or the possible disruptive nature of acquiring existing viable developed areas (damage centres), continued development or redevelopment (infilling) may be possible subject to the conditions established by the Authority. INFILLING Infilling is defined as development or redevelopment within a damage centre. FLOOD DAMAGE REDUCTION MEASURES Flood Damage Reduction Measures have been defined as, "any combination of structural and non-structural additions, change or adjustments to existing flood vulnerable structures which reduce or eliminate flood damage to real estate or improved real property, water and sanitary facilities, structures and their contents." HAZARD LANDS Hazard lands are those lands which due to their susceptibility to flooding or unstable slopes or soils are considered to be hazardous if developed upon. CHANNEL A channel is a natural stream that conveys waterl a ditch or channel excavated for the flow of water. WATERSHED AREA All land and water within the confines of a drainage divide. ~ B-443 , the metropolitan toronto and region conservation authority minutes REPORT '21/80 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE WEDNESDAY-DECEMBER-17-l980 121/80 The Executive Committee met at the Authority Office, 5 Shoreham Drive, Downsview, on Wednesday, December 17, 1980, commencing at 10:00 a.m. PRESENT WERE Vice-Chairman Mrs. F.

Meeting #3/80 Monday-December-8-l980 FROM: W.A. McLean, Director, Planning and Policy RE: ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE AND INTERIM MANAGEMENT - WATER RESOURCE DIVISION (1) INTERIM MANAGEMENT OF TilE WATER RESOURCE DIVISION For a period of 14 months, commencing November 1, 1980, the Administrator of the Water Resource Division has been seconded to the South Nation River Conservation Authority. During this period the following interim management is recommended: (a) Administrator , The Director of Planning and Policy will serve as interim Administrator and perform the following administrative functions: - approve short and long term plans and programs of the Division - review and approve subordinate's budgets - coordinate Division budget allocation with other Divisions as necessary - monitor Division expenditures and take corrective action as necessary - provide guidance and advice to subordinates - make recommendations on personnel matters respecting the Head, Flood Control Section, Head, Waterfront Section and Planner - present the Division's major programs to the Authority, Executive Committee, Advisory Boards, municipal councils and similar bodies as required. (b) Section Heads The Head of the Flood Control Section and the Head of the Waterfront Section will be responsible to the Director of Planning and Policy and in addition to their regular duties, will be responsible for: - the development of short and long term plans and programs - ensure implementation of approved plans and programs and monitor progress against plans - ensure the integration of the development control function with the flood control function (Head, Flood Control only) - set the standards for the flood forecast and warning system (Head, Flood Control only) - make recommendations on personnel matters regarding subordinates - present Division programs and plans as required - maintain contacts with municipal and provincial staff - ensure technical assistance for the development control function - represent the Authority on internal and external committees as required.

(d) Development Coordinator The Development Coordinator will be responsible to the Head, Flood Control Section. His duties and responsibilities will remain as at present. (2 ) INTEGRATION OF DEVELOPMENT CONTROL FUNCTION WITH THE WATER RESOURCE STAFF Prior to the amalgamation of the Flood Control Division and Waterfront Division into the Water Resource Division, the administration of regulations and development control was a component of the Flood Control Division. At the time of amalgamation, in order to permit the restructuring and rebuilding of the Division's technical capability, the development control function was, on a temporary basis, placed under the direction of the Director of Planning and Policy. The Water Resource Division has now been restructured, competent staff developed and recommendations of the Watershed Plan in place. The recommendations of the Watershed Plan place greatly increased emphasis on development control and regulation administration as a flood control measure. The importance of this function dictates that close relationships be established P-43 B-469 ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE AND INTERIM MANAGEMENT - WATER RESOURCE DIVISION PAGE 2 between the planning skills and engineering skills which are required to implement the intent of the regulatory approach to flood control. An experienced and capable team of development control planners and enforcement officers has been developed and these must be fully integrated with the engineering, technical capability which has been established through the specialists now in the Flood Control Section. The objectives in integrating the two functions are as follows: - to produce information and recommendations for decision with respect to , regulation administration and development control that are consistent with program objectives, technically correct and sensitive to the planning and community issues involved 1 - to enable full participation of all staff involved in Division technical discussions _ to provide an organizational structure which will make the most effective use of staff effort, consultation, filing systems and space, and work space: _ to reduce the number of staff contacts which applicants for permits must make. RECOMMENDATION: IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT the Development Control Staff be integrated with the Flood Control Section of the Water Resource Division, and that for the period of the Administrator's secondment the Development Coordinator be responsible to the Head, Flood Control Section, Water Resource Division and that the Development Coordinator and the Head, Flood Control Section cooperate with the taking of measures required to achieve the objectives of the integration set out in this report. 1980.12.04. wAM/mm APPENuIX "C" P-44 B-470 <& the metropolitan toronto and region conservation authority PAGE: C-8 Personnel Manual EXECUTIVE Nt! 21/80 (p Employee Classifications and Categories DATE: Dec. 17. 1980 RESOLUTION N!!. 50S 1981 Level Ranges l2$ Increment LEVEL LOW MID HIGH 1 - - - , 2 9.680 11.495 13,305 3 l2.100 14.2l5 16.330 - 4 l4.515 16.935 19.355 5 17,540 19.960 22,380 6 20,565 23.285 26.010 7 24,l95 26,915 29,635 8 27.820 30,845 33,870 9 31,450 35,080 38.710 10 36,290 39,920 43.545 . 11 42,340 45,965 49,595 . l2 48.385 52,015 55.645 I . .

MARKET RESEARCH SURVEY The purpose of the market research survey is to determine the nature and scope of the market for which the Authority plans and develops public facilities, in order that M.T.R.C.A. may plan for the opportunities and restraints that exist in this community. The survey must reveal as much as possible about the product and market. It is recognized that methods of identifying the markets for each facility can be similar. As a result of the market research survey, which will include information on product and pricing, the next step will be to develop a marketing strategy. Specifically, the survey will provide the basic information on product and pricing that will enable the Authority to determine the market strategy which will maximize attendance and/or revenue. The Consultants and the Authority will agree on reasonable objectives. BACKGROUND Since 1957, The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority has provided opportunities for public access to Authority lands for recreational, educational and heritage conservation purposes. STUDY AREA In the area over which The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conser- vation Authority has jurisdiction, the Authority operates: ALBION HILLS 8 km north of Bolton on Highway 50 BLACK CREEK Jane Street and Steeles Avenue, in northwest Metro Toronto BOYD North of woodbridge on Islington Avenue BRUCE'S MILL 2 km east of Woodbine Avenue on the Gormley- Stouffville Side road CLAIREVILLE Highway 7, 3 km west of Highway 50 ...2...

Page 3 (4) the Consultants will provide direction to those administering the questionnaire; (5) the Consultants will compile and analyze the collected survey data. PRODUCT The Consultants will comment on the Authority's product, based on survey data, as well as from their own observations in becoming familiar with the Authority's facilities. PRICING From information derived from the survey data and an analysis of similar attractions in the region, the Consultants will comment on the Authority's pricing structure. INTERPRETATION AND PRESENTATION OF F!NAL REPORT The Consultants will file with The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority, in early December, 1981, a final report detailing the results of the Market Research Survey and recommendations for a marketing strategy, including a review of product and pricing. The cost to The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority of preparing, carrying out and reporting the Market Survey of Visitors will not exceed $24,000.00. The Consultants will provide the Authority with a breakdown of the study costs prior to the commencement of the Study. TEB/mrp 1980.l0.27. B-477 SCHEDULE "e" APPENDIX "B" lO/Dec./80 MARKETING RESEARCH PROPOSAL FOR THE METROPOLITAN TORONTO AND REGION CONSERVATION AUTHORITY Background Over the past eight months a number of discussions have been held by Woods Gordon with the Information and Education Division, with regard to the Conservation Areas, Black Creek Pioneer Village and the Kortright Centre. It has been agreed that there is a need to define the existing and potential markets better and to provide the data on which an improved marketing strategy can be based. Marketing Research Plan The information which will provide the basis for fuller understanding of the market and an improved marketing strategy will include: - an evaluation of non users to obtain some understanding of why they do not visit the Authority's facilities - greater definition of current users, their attitudes and interests Research and analysis will be conducted in three phases as indicated below. The year round activities of the Conservation Areas will be taken into account in planning the research: 1) Assessment of all relevant existing data and analysis of the range of facilities currently available in different locations. On the basis of these discussions specific objectives will be agreed upon and a detailed plan prepared. 2) Focus group discussions will be carried out to improve our understanding of why certain people are users and others are not. In addition findings from the group discussions will assist in the development of a structured research study of current visitors as described below. B-478 - 2 - 3) Carry out a survey of current visitors to Black Creek Pioneer VIllage t the Conservation Areas and the Kortright Centre for Conservation and collect appropriate datat taking into consideration seasonal activities. The precise approach will be based on the market survey procedures in the Terms of Reference and would be developed in consultation with the Information and Education Division and the Staff Marketing Committee. The approach would be influenced by the findings of the focus groups. At this juncture we visualize that the following information would be included in the survey questionnaire. This includes many of the questions used in the 1979 study with some additional elements that are felt to be important. - origin of visitor party - day and time of visit - first visit or repeat - if first visitt source of information - number of members in visitor party - age profile of members of visitor party - characteristics of head of visitor party: - age - sex - income - occupation - education Activities Undertaken by Visitor Party - did members in the visitor party: - swim - fish - picnic - use various facilities - engage in any of the activities sponsored by MTRCA - etc. - length of stay Type of Visit - is the visitor party on a: - day trip outing - weekend overnight trip - longer vacation Visitor Reaction to Various Aspects at Conservation Area - perceptual information regarding visitors' reaction to: - facilities - activities - pricing B-479 - 3 - Other Leisure-Related Activities - doe~ anyone in visitor party: - engage in artistic pursuits (painting, crafts, etc.) - engage in organized sports - engage in outdoor recreation (hiking, canoeing, etc.) - etc. - what other areas has visitor party been to: - other Conservation Areas - provincial or national parks - private campgrounds - museums/art galleries, etc. - etc. Conclusions and Recommendations The research data will provide an assessment of the current facilities in terms of the attitudes of users and non-users. Our repor. will include descriptions of the various target groups. We will also comment on the product available and indicate considerations that should be given to the development of the product mix. Based on the results of the survey and consideration of similar attractions available in the region we will comment on the pricing structure. With this information, it will be possible for the MTRCA to develop a marketing strategy, which would be the foundation for an improved marketing plan in 1982. During the process of analysis of the data, close consultation will be maintained with the Information and Education Division so that data can be used on a preliminary basis for planning during the Fall of 1981. An interim report for internal use will be prepared in September 81 with a final report due one month after the . completion of all analysis estimated at present to be December. B-480 - 4 - Timing and Budget Following approval to proceed, Woods Gordon will . require 12 months for data collection, as described herein, and one month for reporting. Total costs will not exceed $24,000. --- - . Note: All research data will become the property of the Authority and access to the data will be facilitated. Personnel Involved Directing Partner for the study would be Michael J. McC1ew.
