Qualified Person’s Statements and CertificationsAs the qualified person, I certify that:
A phase one environmental site assessment of the RSC property, which includes the evaluation of the information gathered from a records review, site reconnaissance, interviews, a report and any updates required, has been conducted in accordance with the regulation by or under the supervision of a qualified person as required by the regulation.
A phase two environmental site assessment of the RSC property, which includes the evaluation of the information gathered from planning and conducting a site investigation, a report, and any updates required, has been conducted in accordance with the regulation by or under the supervision of a qualified person as required by the regulation.
The information represents the site conditions at the sampling points at the time of sampling only and the conditions between and beyond the sampling points may vary.
As of 2014/01/28, in my opinion, based on the phase one environmental site assessment and the phase two environmental site assessment, and any confirmatory sampling, there is no evidence of any contaminants in the soil, ground water or sediment on, in or under the RSC property that would interfere with the type of property use to which the RSC property will be put, as specified in the RSC.
Ground water sampling has been conducted in accordance with the regulation by or under the supervision of a qualified person as required by the regulation.

PHASE TWO ESA - CONCEPTUAL SITE MODEL – 256 NIP ISSING STREET, STURGEON FALLS, ONTARIO
1
PHASE TWO CONCEPTUAL SITE MODEL
Discussion of the Conceptual Site Model (CSM) of the Phase Two Study Area
LVM | Merlex Ltd. has created several figures to help in understanding the current and historical
conditions of the original Phase One and Two Property, the Phase One Study Area, and the RSC
Property. These figures make up the Conceptual Site Model (CSM) and are discussed below. The
Phase Two CSM is provided and discussed in this section, as required under O. Reg. 153/04, as
amended. The CSM is based on recent Phase Two ESA work. The approximate location of the new
building as well as the area of imported fill on the Site is outlined in the figures. The figures are included
in Appendix 1.
I. Potentially Contaminating Activities and Areas of Potential Environmental Concern
The Phase One and Two Property (identical boundaries) are located in the Municipality of Sturgeon Falls,
Ontario (see Drawing No. 1b, Appendix 1).
During the Phase One ESA (LVM | Merlex Ltd., 2013/2014, Ref. No. 13/10/13196), three (3) APECs
attributable to historical and current PCAs situated within 250 m of the Phase Two Property were
identified. One (1) PCA resulting in an APEC was identified on the Site. No other PCAs were identified
located within 250 m of the Phase Two Property boundaries. PCAs and APECs are discussed below and
illustrated on Drawing No. 4 in Appendix 1.
On-Site PCAs resulting in an APEC at the RSC Property
One (1) PCA resulting in an APEC was identified on the Site (RSC One Property). The west/southwest
end of the Site around the area of the newly constructed building has been backfilled and graded with
imported fill of unknown quality (PCA #30). The contaminants of concern potentially associated with
excavating the fill from the original source off-Site, transporting the fill to the Phase II Property, and
grading the fill at the Phase II Property, are PHCs in the F1 – F4 range and BTEX compounds.
Off-Site PCAs resulting in APECs at the RSC Property
Three (3) PCAs were identified on properties adjacent to the Site that resulted in APECs along the
boundaries of the RSC Property.
PCA 1 is located off-Site along the north boundary of the Site and includes a rail line (PCA #46) and the
area immediately adjacent to the rail line to the north where there is a fuel storage area (PCA #28) and a
vehicle maintenance operation (PCA #27). As these PCAs are adjacent to the site to the north and
considered up gradient they result in an APEC along the north boundary of the Site (APEC 1).
Contaminants of concern in this area include PHCs F1 – F4, BTEX, PAHs, and metals.
PCA 2 is located off-Site along the east boundary of the Site and includes a sign manufacturer (PCA #8
and #39) with a fuel oil AST (PCA #28) servicing the building. As these PCAs are adjacent to the site to
the east and considered up/cross gradient they result in an APEC along the east boundary of the Site
(APEC 2). Contaminants of concern in this APEC include PHCs F1 – F4, PAHs, and VOCs.
13/10/13196
PHASE TWO ESA - CONCEPTUAL SITE MODEL – 256 NIP ISSING STREET, STURGEON FALLS, ONTARIO
2
PCA 3 was identified off-Site along the west boundary of the Property and involved a welding/fabricating
shop (PCA #34) opposite Nipissing Street, and the historical and possible ongoing PCB storage site (PCA
#8). As these PCAs are adjacent to the Site to the west and considered cross/down gradient they result in
an APEC along the west boundary of the Site (APEC 1). Contaminants of concern in this APEC include
PHCs F1 – F4, PAHs, BTEX, PCBs, and metals.
The APECs occurring on the Phase Two Property have been thoroughly investigated for all associated
COCs. Contaminants of concern were above the applicable MOE SCS not identified in any APECs on the
Subject Site.
Contaminants of concern were found to be below the applicable MOE SCS for all identified APECs on
and off the Subject Site.

II. Subsurface Structures and Utilities
At the time of this investigation, a municipal drinking water line was known to be present in the subsurface
as it was previously associated with Site operations (mini-putt) located on the RSC Property. No other
subsurface structures or utilities were identified.
Physical Characteristics
I. Stratigraphy from ground surface to the deepest aquifer or aquitard investigated
Geologic cross sections were constructed to illustrate the stratigraphy at the Site. The cross section
locations are shown on Drawing No. 5 and the cross sections A‐A’ and B‐B’ are illustrated on Drawing No.
6.
II. Hydrogeological Characteristics
The geodetic elevation of the Site is approximately ±212 m above sea level (Google Earth, 2013). Based
upon local geological mapping (Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources, Northern Ontario Engineering
Geology Terrain Study Data Base Map – North Bay, Map 5041, 1979), the subsurface conditions are
comprised of glaciolacustrine plains made up of silty sands as the dominant landform. The topographic
variety of the dominant landform is considered to be a plain, or flat. Local relief is considered to be mainly
low and drainage is dry with a suspected high water table.
Groundwater levels were encountered between 1.55 to 2.06 metres below original ground surface
(mbgs), with an inferred flow direction southwesterly, towards the Sturgeon River and eventually
Lake Nipissing.
The topography of the Site slopes down from northeast to southwest, towards the Sturgeon River,
eventually leading to Lake Nipissing.
There are no known environmentally sensitive areas in the study area of the Site.
The permeability of the main geological units was estimated as follows:
Sand fill: 10-1 to 10-5 cm/sec Natural Sands: 10-1 to 10-3 cm/sec
Based on the Site-specific geology, the main units investigated during the Phase Two ESA were the fill
and the native sand units, and wells were constructed to straddle the encountered groundwater table.
Groundwater measurements based upon one sampling event on Site ranged from 1.55 mbgs to 2.06
mbgs and groundwater flow was shown to flow to the southwest.
The horizontal gradient across the Site was measured as approximately 3.44 x 10-3 metres per metre
(m/m).
III. Approximate depth to bedrock
The approximate depth to bedrock on Site is unknown as boreholes were advanced to 4.5 mbgs and
bedrock was not encountered.
13/10/13196
PHASE TWO ESA - CONCEPTUAL SITE MODEL – 256 NIP ISSING STREET, STURGEON FALLS, ONTARIO
4
Bedrock elevations in the area are known to be highly variable, with significant elevation differences over
short horizontal distances. Based upon available records, the estimated depth to bedrock in the area of
the Site is 5 to >20 mbgs based on local spot elevations of known bedrock outcrops at surface (Google
Earth, 2013), and data from the LVM-Merlex Historical Geotechnical Database. The bedrock surface at
Minnehaha Bay, located approximately 500 m to the west-south-west of the Site was encountered at
elevations ranging from 200.6 m to 193.8 m during a 2009 Geotechnical Investigation (LVM-Merlex,
2009).
IV. Approximate depth to water table
Groundwater measurements based upon one sampling event on Site ranged from 1.55 mbgs to 2.06
mbgs and groundwater flow was shown to flow to the southwest. The groundwater contours and
interpreted groundwater flow direction are presented on Drawing 3 found in Appendix 1.
V. Any respect in which section 41 or 43.1 of the Regulation applies to the property
In regards to section 41 of O. Reg. 153/04:
a) The Property:
i. is not situated within an area of natural significance;
ii. does not include, nor is it adjacent to, an area of natural significance or part of such an
area;
iii. does not include land that is within 30 metres of an area of natural significance or part of
such an area.
b) Soil with pH values outside of the acceptable ranges was not identified on the subject site
In regards to section 43.1 of O. Reg. 153/04:
a) The Property:
i. is not a shallow soil property;
ii. does not include all or part of a water body, nor is it adjacent to a water body, and does
not include land that is within 30 m of a water body.
Sections 41 and 43.1 do not apply to the subject site.
VI. Areas where soil has been brought from another property and placed on, in or under the Phase Two Property
Granular fill is present in the western portion of the Site for developing the office/residential building now
present on Site. It is reported by the builder that the quantity of fill brought to the site was 432 m3. On
March 3rd, 2014, three (3) soil samples (one for every 160 m3 of soil brought to the site) plus a duplicate
soil sample were obtained from the fill brought to the Site. The samples were analytically tested for
contaminants of concern (COCs) that may have come into contact with the soil during removal from the
pit, transportation, and grading on the RSC Property. COCs included BTEX and PHCs in F1 to F4
ranges. None of the COCs were present in any of the soil samples at concentrations exceeding
applicable MOE SCS.

Additional Information Soil Quality
Environmental conditions within the soils were characterized based on the analytical results of soil
samples obtained during the Phase Two ESA field investigation.
Three (3) sampled boreholes (all of which were developed with monitoring wells), and three (3) auger
probes, were advanced on the RSC Property.
One (1) sampled borehole developed with monitoring well was advanced in each of APECs 1, 2 and 3.
COCs were not detected in any of the submitted soil samples obtained from the RSC Property at
concentrations that exceed the applicable Site Condition Standards (SCS) (see Certificates of Analysis in
Appendix 3).
Granular fill is present in the western portion of the Site for developing the office/residential building now
present on Site. It is reported by the builder that the quantity of fill brought to the site was 432 m3. On
March 3rd, 2014, three (3) soil samples (one for every 160 m3 of soil brought to the site) plus a duplicate
soil sample were obtained from the fill brought to the Site. The samples were analytically tested for
contaminants of concern (COCs) that may have come into contact with the soil during removal from the
pit, transportation, and grading on the RSC Property. COCs included BTEX and PHCs in F1 to F4
ranges. None of the COCs were present in any of the soil samples at concentrations exceeding
applicable MOE SCS.
For a complete list of results, see Appendix 3 for the Certificate of Analysis provided by AGAT Laboratory.
The soil quality investigation concluded that none of the PCAs has resulted in a confirmed area of
environmental concern and therefore no additional environmental work was required at the RSC Property.
Groundwater Quality
Environmental conditions within the groundwater were characterized based on the analytical results of
groundwater samples obtained during the Phase II ESA field investigation.
Three (3) monitoring wells were constructed on the RSC Property, one in each of APEC 1, 2, and 3. No
COCs were detected at concentrations that exceed the applicable site condition standards from any of
the groundwater samples obtained from the RSC One Property. For further detail, see the Certificate of
Analysis found in Appendix 3 of this report.
The combined results of the soil and groundwater samples lead to the conclusion that no additional
environmental work was required for the APECs located on the Phase Two Property.
Vapour Intrusion
Vapour intrusion was not investigated as part of the Phase Two ESA as there was no occupied buildings
located on the Phase Two Property at the time of the ESA II field investigation. A new building is currently
under construction. Based on the soil and water quality findings, a vapour intrusion investigation does not
appear to be warranted.

Contaminant Pathways and Receptors
Based on the analytical results of the soil and groundwater samples obtained from the ESA Phase II
property meeting the applicable MOE SCS, it is LVM | Merlex Ltd.’s opinion that it is not necessary to
carry out a study of the human health and ecological contaminant pathway and receptor models,
identifying the source, release mechanisms, transport pathways, human and ecological receptors on, in
or under the RSC Property, and types and routes of receptor exposure. See Drawing No.’s 6 and 7 in
Appendix 1.
