7 10 Contamination of Fill 35. The parties are in agreement that Ontario Regulation 153/04, Records of Site Condition - Part XV.1 of The Act36 is the regulation applicable to whether fill should be deposited at the Airport. This regulation incorporates the Soil, Groundwater and Sediment Standards for Use Under Part XV.1 of the Environmental Protection Acts'. These standards include the Table 1 and Table 2 Site Condition Standards (SCS). The parties agree that the Table 2 SCS are generally appropriate for assessing the fill at the Airport. The more stringent Table 1 SCS are required to assess fill in areas proximal to surface water or environmentally sensitive or significant areas at the Airport Contaminants in excess of the Table 1 and Table 2 SCS were found to be present in the fill deposited at the Airport. Contaminants in excess of the allowable limits include electrical conductivity, sodium adsorption ratio, petroleum hydrocarbons in the F1, F2, F3, and F4 fraction ranges, antimony, lead, zinc, copper, cadmium, cyanide, acenaphthylene, benzo(a)anthracene, benzo(ajpyrene, benzo(b)fluoranthene, fluoranthene, indeno(c)pyrene, and/or naphthalene Airpark's own testing and Site Specific Risk Assessment for the fill showed Table 2 exceedences of copper,40 benzo(a)pyrene,41 zinc42 and lead43 at the same level or higher than the exceedences found by the City's Professional Geoscientist, Jeff Stevenson. 4a Airpark's own consultants agreed that these exceedences could be found anywhere in 36 Ontario Regulation 153/04, Records of Site Condition - Part XV.1 of the Act under the Environmental Protection Act, RSO 1990, c.

This means that any groundwater contaminated by the fill flows downwards towards those wells Absent risk management measures, there are risks to both human health and ecological receptors from the exceeding petroleum hydrocarbons, on-site metals, and on-site polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon levels in the fill.49 Airpark has not developed specific risk management measures for the Airport, nor has it committed to implement them. so The presence of contaminants in the fill continues to threaten surrounding agricultural and residential lands with adverse effects. sl Fill Removal Request 41.
