1. INTRODUCTION RWDI AIR Inc. (RWDI) was retained by Waste Management of Canada Corporation (WM) to conduct the 2013 ambient air quality monitoring program at the Ottawa Landfill facility located in Ottawa, Ontario. This monitoring program was undertaken to fulfill the requirements listed in the Minutes of Settlement, signed on September 27th, 2007 and subsequent documents. The ambient air quality monitoring program was also developed to take into account the results of discussions between community residents, the Ministry of Environment and Waste Management of Canada Corporation.
The ambient monitoring program was approved based on the “Ambient Air Quality Work Plan” dated September 20, 2007 in the Amended Provisional Certificate of Approval A461002 Item 13 in Schedule B1.
2. OVERVIEW OF AMBIENT AIR QUALITY MONITORING PROGRAM
Sampling was conducted from May 2013 to September of 2013, inclusive. The parameters monitored were as follows:
Total suspended particulate (TSP) and metals;
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs); and
Total Reduced Sulphur (TRS).
Monitoring for Total Suspended Particulate (TSP) was conducted at three (3) fixed locations around the landfill footprint. The monitoring locations were near the northeast corner, the southeast corner and the south west corner of the Ottawa Landfill. Samples were taken over a 24 hour period every six (6) days, in concurrence with the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s National Air Pollutant Surveillance program (NAPS).
Monitoring for Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) were completed both upwind and downwind of the landfill footprint. Six (6) ½ - hour samples pairs (upwind and downwind) were collected using adsorbent tubes for selected VOC compounds. Sampling locations were selected based on local meteorological conditions at the time of sampling.
For TRS, five (5) pairs of samples (upwind and downwind) were collected for reduced sulphur compounds. Sampling locations were selected based on local meteorological conditions at the time of sampling.
An on-site meteorological station measured wind speed, and wind direction, concurrently with the field measurements.

In order to best maintain the short-term upwind and downwind positions, the sampling locations for VOC and TRS sampling varied between sample days to adjust to current meteorological conditions. The collected samples were sent for laboratory analysis and the results were compared to the applicable MOE Point of Impingement (POI) Limits.
3. SAMPLING METHODOLOGY A number of quality assurance measures were implemented throughout the program. This section provides details with respect to samplers, media, methods and QA/QC procedures.
3.1 Total Suspended Particulate (TSP)
A total of sixty three (63) samples out of a possible seventy five (75) samples (twenty five sample sets) were collected through the course of the ambient Total Suspended Particulate (TSP) measurement program. These sample sets were taken at three (3) fixed stationary locations along the Ottawa Landfill fence line. The monitoring locations were near the northeast corner, the southeast corner and the south west corner of the landfill. Samples were collected from midnight to midnight (24-hour period), in concurrence with the U.S. EPA NAPS six day sampling schedule.
The monitoring method was in compliance with the methods specified by the MOE’s Operations Manual for Air Quality Monitoring in Ontario and USEPA Method IO-2. The 24-hour samples were taken using standard high-volume (hi-vol) air samplers at a sampling rate of approximately 40 CFM. Suspended particulate matter was collected on an 8”x10” Teflon coated glass fibre filters. The filters were submitted to Caduceon Environmental Laboratories for gravimetric and inductively coupled plasma (ICP) analysis for metals.
The particular metals that were examined on the TSP filters were Lead, Manganese, Chromium, Cadmium, and Nickel.
3.2 VOC Measurements
Monitoring for VOCs was conducted by collecting six (6), ½ - hour sample pairs using adsorbent tubes for select VOC compounds.
Ambient air samples were collected concurrently at locations directly downwind and upwind of the landfill mound. In general, the downwind samples were focused on capturing emissions from the landfill operations. The sampling locations (upwind and downwind) were pre-selected based on forecasts of wind direction provided by Environment Canada and information from the on-site meteorological station.
The sampling methods and analytical techniques used for VOC sampling were developed based on guidance from the MOE’s Operations Manual for Point Source Air Quality Monitoring. The sampling methodology is described in more detail in the following sections.

3.2.1 VOC Sampling and Analytical Methods
Sampling for VOC’s was based on the U.S. EPA Ambient Air Method TO-17 using adsorbent tubes. Air samples were collected using a diaphragm pump regulated with rotameters or mass flow controllers. The sample flow rates were nominally 240 ml/minute, resulting in total sample volumes of approximately 7.2 litres, as suggested by the MOE.
Samples were submitted to OSB Laboratories for analysis. The analysis was conducted using a gas chromatograph equipped with a mass spectrometer detector. Vinyl chloride was analyzed using selective ion mode to obtain lower detection limits. The VOC analysis method is comparable to EPA SW846 Method 8260B, NIOSH Method 2549 and equivalent to EPA Compendium Method TO-17.
3.3 Reduced Sulphur Measurements
Reduced sulphur samples were collected in the same location as the VOC samples. The samples were collected roughly over a 10-minute period, downwind and upwind of the landfill mound. The sampling locations were chosen based on meteorological conditions.
Samples were collected in three-litre Tedlar or Teflon bags using a lung sampler. Once collected, the reduced sulphur samples were protected from sunlight until analyzed. The samples were analyzed in-house at RWDI using a thermal oxidizer in conjunction with pulsating ultraviolet light to detect reduced sulphur. The analysis was completed within 24 hours of sample collection.
3.4 Meteorological Station
Continuous wind speed, and wind direction measurements were collected from the on-site weather station installed by RWDI.
Rainfall data was also collected for days when the 24-hour TSP samples were collected. This information was also obtained from the Environment Canada station, Ottawa CDA. The rainfall data is presented in Table 1, below.

3.5 Quality Assurance Measures
A number of common quality assurance measures were implemented during the sampling program to ensure the integrity of the results. These measures included detailed documentation of all field activities, calibration of all samplers and a number of laboratory-related measures including sample handling procedures and instrument calibrations.
All of the samplers were either bench-tested or calibrated in RWDI’s office prior to field deployment or calibrated in the field before use. For example, all of the low flow samplers were calibrated against a certified primary dry cell standard, (i.e., dry cell calibrator) before sampling.
Chain of Custody forms were completed and submitted along with the exposed samples to the laboratory. Where required by the method, exposed samples were packed in coolers before transport.
3.6 Relevant Air Quality Limits
Measured 24-hour TSP concentrations from the ambient air quality monitoring program were compared to the respective Ontario Regulation 419/05 Point of Impingement (POI) Limits.
Measured ½ - hour VOC and 10-minute reduced sulphur compound concentrations from the ambient air quality monitoring program were compared to their respective Ontario Regulation 419/05 POI Limits. Regulation 419/05 sets forth explicit standards for a source’s contribution to the concentration of airborne contaminants at the POI. The term POI is taken to be in the natural environment at the boundaries of the property.
4. RESULTS TSP samples were collected every six (6) days from May 4 to September 25 of 2013. A total of sixty three (63) samples out of a possible seventy five (75) samples were collected. Twelve (12) samples were not collected. The majority of these missed samples were related to electrical power issues. The sample recovery rate was 84% which is well within the MOE’s minimum recovery level of greater than 75%. The results of the TSP analysis are presented in Tables 1.1 to 1.6. Figures 1.1 to 1.25 illustrate the sampling location, the particulate matter concentrations and a wind rose representing the wind conditions at the site during the sampling event. The wind rose shows the frequency and strength of winds blowing from different directions.

A total of fourteen (14) measured TSP concentrations were above Schedule 3, 24-hour standard as outlined in O.Reg.419/05. Background particulate concentrations in the vicinity of the landfill are relatively high, due to nearby quarry operations and off-site traffic on Carp Road and Highway 417. Ambient sampling results indicate that off-site sources can produce concentrations of suspended particulate matter as high as or higher than the concentrations produced by landfill operations. This is evidenced by the high particulate measurements recorded when winds were blowing from off-site towards the ambient sampler locations. In addition, there were also a number of events where on-site sources (including movement of vehicles within the landfill) which can be attributed to the elevated concentrations. WM employs a Best Management Practices Plan for fugitive dust control in an effort to reduce the potential for dust to migrate off-site. WM should continue to monitor dust conditions at the site and apply water on all roads as required to reduce the potential for fugitive dust form the site.
For the days on which TSP level exceeded the POI limits, a Notice of Exceedance was sent to Waste Management of Canada Corporation and issued to the MOE. These notices contained details such as the sample location at which the exceedance occurred, sample location relative to the landfill footprint in terms of wind direction, and the potential main contributor to the exceedance. The notices of exceedance are attached in Appendix A.
Six (6) VOC and five (5) reduced sulphur samples were collected and analyzed by the laboratories and methods noted above. The samples were collected on the following days:
June 13 (VOC only);
June 20 (VOC only);
July 16 (VOC only);
July 25;
August 7 (TRS only)
August 14 (TRS only);
September 18; and
September 26.
The results of the VOC samples are presented in Tables 2.1 to 2.6. These tables include the following information:
A summary of all measured data, in terms of upwind and downwind sample tube results in total nanograms (ng) as well as upwind and downwind results in terms of concentration, in micrograms of contaminant per cubic metre of air (ug/m3).
Comparison of upwind and downwind measured concentrations to the applicable air quality limits.
A comparison of the upwind and downwind measured concentrations to determine the net impacts from the landfill facility.

A comparison of the upwind and downwind measured concentrations to determine the net impacts from the landfill facility.
Sampling locations for TRS and 30-minute VOC are shown in Figures 2.1 to 2.8. All of the ambient measurements for TRS showed concentrations less than the relevant POI limits.
5. CONCLUSION The ambient sampling program for 2013 was completed on September 26th, 2013.
A total of fourteen (14) measured TSP concentrations were greater than the 24-hour Schedule 3 standard for TSP. For the days the exceedance occurred, notices of exceedance were sent to Waste Management of Canada Corporation for submission to the MOE. These exceedances were mostly attributed to off-site activities. However, some of the exceedances can be attributed to on-site movement of vehicles. Waste Management was applying water to the roadways during the summer season as noted in their on-site dust management strategy in order to minimize the exceedances from the on-site activities. RWDI would recommend that WM review the dust control measures along the south and east roadways on the site and continue to monitor dust conditions at the site. Details of these exceedances are shown in Appendix A. All of the samples for airborne metals were below criteria concentrations.
None of the ambient measurements for VOC or TRS showed concentrations that were greater than the relevant POI Limits.

Email: [email protected]
Dear Mr. Godin: RWDI AIR Inc. (RWDI) was retained by Waste Management of Canada Corporation (WM) to complete the Total Suspended Particulate Matter (TSP) and Airborne Metal (Metals) sampling required under the Amended Provisional Certificate of Approval A461002 Notice 7 dated March 7, 2008. The sampling program is being completed as approved by the Ontario Ministry of the Environment under Condition 21.3.1 The program was approved based on the “Ambient Air Quality Work Plan” dated September 30, 2007 in the Amended Provisional Certificate of Approval A461002 Item 13 in Schedule B.2 The program consists of TSP and airborne metals at three (3) stationary locations operating on a 6-day cycle from May to September and Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) and Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S) sampling, concurrently upwind and downwind during the months of June, July, and August (and September if required) for a total of five (5) sample sets per year. This letter outlines the results from the sampling completed from May 4th to June 3rd, 2013 for the TSP and airborne metals.
SAMPLING PROGRAM OVERVIEW Each sample location has one (1) High Volume Air samplers (Hi-Vols) which run on a 6 day schedule. Each sample period consisting of a 24-hour (midnight to midnight) sample that operates in concurrence with North American Pollutant Sampling (NAPS) schedule. During the period of May 4th to June 3rd a total of six (6) sample sets were collected. The results of the TSP measurements are presented Table 1, below, respectively from the Northeast, Southeast and Southwest samplers. 1 Ontario Ministry of the Environment Certificate of Approval A461002 Notice 7, dated March 7, 2008. 2 RWDI Air Inc. Ambient Air Quality Work Plan – Ottawa Landfill RWDI Reference Number W07-5258A dated September 20, 2007.

Notes: Bold – Values that are above the O.Reg.419 Schedule 3 Standard of 120 µg/m³ Three (3) samples were measured in excess of the O.Reg.419/05 Schedule 3 Standard for Suspended Particulate Matter. The exceedances occurred on May 4th, May 10th May 28th. Figures 1, 2 and 3 illustrate the sample locations, measured TSP concentrations, and the windrose depicting the wind conditions on the days the exceedances were measured. The windroses express the frequency of time the wind is blowing from each direction and provide the average wind speed for each direction. As shown in the figures, the elevated levels at the NE Hi-Vol and at the SE Hi-Vol appear to be from a combination of background or non-Ottawa Landfill sources (Highway 417 and the quarry on Carp Road) and movement of vehicles on roads within the landfill facility. A summary of the calculated statistics for measured concentrations of TSP at the Ottawa Landfill Site sampling locations is presented in Table 2.

CURRENT MITIGATION MEASURES AND ADDITIONAL ACTIONS Currently, particulate emission mitigation measures are in place at the Ottawa Landfill Site and consist of watering of on-site roadways and construction sites. The practices listed above will not occur if precipitation events cause these activities to become redundant or if the ground is sufficiently wet from previous rainfall events. As noted above, there were three (3) exceedances of the 24-hour standard for total suspended particulate matter. As shown in Figures 1, 2 and 3, the wind conditions on the days of exceedance indicate that the particulate measured was likely due to a combination of vehicle movement within the landfill facility and background or non-Ottawa Landfill source(s). Since the source(s) of the dust appear to be related to a combination of on-site and off-site sources, there are no specific action items being noted nor are there any changes to the monitoring plan at this time. Ottawa Landfill site should continue to monitor dust conditions at the site and apply water on all roads as required to reduce the potential for fugitive dust from the site.

ADDITIONAL REPORTING As noted in the September 20, 2007 workplan and as indicated in the existing Certificate of Approval, WM is required to provide notification to the Local District Office of the MOE (Ottawa District Office) as soon as practical after receiving the sample results. This notification should be issued to Mr. Greg Davis as soon as practical in order to comply with the existing Certificate of Approval. In addition, WM is also required to identify the potential sources resulting from the exceedance and provide action items for completion if the sources are attributable to the Ottawa Landfill operations. This letter outlines the potential sources of dust based on the meteorological conditions during the elevated sampling event (related to background sources) and therefore no further actions or changes to the monitoring are required at this time for the Ottawa Landfill site.

Mr. Remi Godin Waste Management of Canada Corporation Ottawa Landfill 2301 Carp Road Ottawa, ON Re: June 9th to July 15th, 2013 Sampling Results, Exceedance Notification and Action Plan Ottawa Landfill Site, Ottawa, ON RWDI Reference #1301745
Email: [email protected]
Dear Mr. Godin: RWDI AIR Inc. (RWDI) was retained by Waste Management of Canada Corporation (WM) to complete the Total Suspended Particulate Matter (TSP) and Airborne Metal (Metals) sampling required under the Amended Provisional Certificate of Approval A461002 Notice 7 dated March 7, 2008. The sampling program is being completed as approved by the Ontario Ministry of the Environment under Condition 21.3.1 The program was approved based on the “Ambient Air Quality Work Plan” dated September 30, 2007 in the Amended Provisional Certificate of Approval A461002 Item 13 in Schedule B.2 The program consists of TSP and airborne metals at three (3) stationary locations operating on a 6-day cycle from May to September and Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) and Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S) sampling, concurrently upwind and downwind during the months of June, July, and August (and September if required) for a total of five (5) sample sets per year. This letter outlines the results from the sampling completed from June 9th to July 15th, 2013 for the TSP and airborne metals.
SAMPLING PROGRAM OVERVIEW Each sample location has one (1) High Volume Air samplers (Hi-Vols) which run on a 6 day schedule. Each sample period consisting of a 24-hour (midnight to midnight) sample that operates in concurrence with North American Pollutant Sampling (NAPS) schedule. During the period of June 9th to July 15th, 2013 a total of seven (7) sample sets were collected. The results of the TSP measurements are presented Table 1, below, respectively from the Northeast, Southeast and Southwest samplers. 1 Ontario Ministry of the Environment Certificate of Approval A461002 Notice 7, dated March 7, 2008. 2 RWDI Air Inc.

Notes: Bold – Values that are above the O.Reg.419 Schedule 3 Standard of 120 µg/m³ Eight (8) samples were measured in excess of the O.Reg.419/05 Schedule 3 Standard for Suspended Particulate Matter. The exceedances occurred on June 9th, June 21st, June 27th, July 3rd, July 9th and July 15th. Figures 1 to 6 illustrate the sample locations, measured TSP concentrations, and the windrose depicting the wind conditions on the days the exceedances were measured. The windroses express the frequency of time the wind is blowing from each direction and provide the average wind speed for each direction. As shown in the figures, the elevated levels at the NE Hi-Vol and at the SE Hi-Vol appear to be from a combination of background or non-Ottawa Landfill sources (Highway 417) and movement of vehicles on roads within the landfill facility. It should be noted that the measured wind speeds on June 27th and July 3rd were below 1 m/s and have been recorded as calm periods. A summary of the calculated statistics for measured concentrations of TSP at the Ottawa Landfill Site sampling locations is presented in Table 2.

CURRENT MITIGATION MEASURES AND ADDITIONAL ACTIONS Currently, particulate emission mitigation measures are in place at the Ottawa Landfill Site and consist of watering of on-site roadways and construction sites. The practices listed above will not occur if precipitation events cause these activities to become redundant or if the ground is sufficiently wet from previous rainfall events. As noted above, there were eight (8) exceedances of the 24-hour standard for total suspended particulate matter. As shown in Figures 1 to 6, the wind conditions on the days of exceedance indicate that the particulate measured was likely due to a combination of vehicle movement within the landfill facility and background or non-Ottawa Landfill source(s). Since the source(s) of the dust appear to be related to a combination of on-site and off-site sources, there are no specific action items being noted nor are there any changes to the monitoring plan at this time. Ottawa Landfill site should continue to monitor dust conditions at the site and apply water on all roads as required to reduce the potential for fugitive dust from the site.

ADDITIONAL REPORTING As noted in the September 20, 2007 workplan and as indicated in the existing Certificate of Approval, WM is required to provide notification to the Local District Office of the MOE (Ottawa District Office) as soon as practical after receiving the sample results. This notification should be issued to Mr. Greg Davis as soon as practical in order to comply with the existing Certificate of Approval. In addition, WM is also required to identify the potential sources resulting from the exceedance and provide action items for completion if the sources are attributable to the Ottawa Landfill operations. This letter outlines the potential sources of dust based on the meteorological conditions during the elevated sampling event (related to background sources) and therefore no further actions or changes to the monitoring are required at this time for the Ottawa Landfill site.

Mr. Remi Godin Waste Management of Canada Corporation Ottawa Landfill 2301 Carp Road Ottawa, ON Re: July 21st to August 26th, 2013 Sampling Results, Exceedance Notification and Action Plan Ottawa Landfill Site, Ottawa, ON RWDI Reference #1301745
Email: [email protected]
Dear Mr. Godin: RWDI AIR Inc. (RWDI) was retained by Waste Management of Canada Corporation (WM) to complete the Total Suspended Particulate Matter (TSP) and Airborne Metal (Metals) sampling required under the Amended Provisional Certificate of Approval A461002 Notice 7 dated March 7, 2008. The sampling program is being completed as approved by the Ontario Ministry of the Environment under Condition 21.3.1 The program was approved based on the “Ambient Air Quality Work Plan” dated September 30, 2007 in the Amended Provisional Certificate of Approval A461002 Item 13 in Schedule B.2 The program consists of TSP and airborne metals at three (3) stationary locations operating on a 6-day cycle from May to September and Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) and Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S) sampling, concurrently upwind and downwind during the months of June, July, and August (and September if required) for a total of five (5) sample sets per year. This letter outlines the results from the sampling completed from July 21st to August 26th, 2013 for the TSP and airborne metals.
SAMPLING PROGRAM OVERVIEW Each sample location has one (1) High Volume Air samplers (Hi-Vols) which run on a 6 day schedule. Each sample period consisting of a 24-hour (midnight to midnight) sample that operates in concurrence with North American Pollutant Sampling (NAPS) schedule. During the period of July 21st to August 26th, 2013 a total of sixteen (16) out of a possible twenty one (21) samples were collected. Some of the samples were not collected due to equipment malfunction. The results of the TSP measurements are presented Table 1, below, respectively from the Northeast, Southeast and Southwest samplers. 1 Ontario Ministry of the Environment Certificate of Approval A461002 Notice 7, dated March 7, 2008. 2 RWDI Air Inc.

Notes: Bold – Values that are above the O.Reg.419 Schedule 3 Standard of 120 µg/m³ Two (2) samples were measured in excess of the O.Reg.419/05 Schedule 3 Standard for Suspended Particulate Matter. The exceedances occurred on August 20th and August 26th. Figures 1 and 2 illustrate the sample locations, measured TSP concentrations, and the windrose depicting the wind conditions on the days the exceedances were measured. The windroses express the frequency of time the wind is blowing from each direction and provide the average wind speed for each direction. As shown in the figures, the elevated levels at the SE Hi-Vol appear to be from a combination of background or non-Ottawa Landfill sources (Highway 417) and movement of vehicles on roads within the landfill facility. A summary of the calculated statistics for measured concentrations of TSP at the Ottawa Landfill Site sampling locations is presented in Table 2.

CURRENT MITIGATION MEASURES AND ADDITIONAL ACTIONS Currently, particulate emission mitigation measures are in place at the Ottawa Landfill Site and consist of watering of on-site roadways and construction sites. The practices listed above will not occur if precipitation events cause these activities to become redundant or if the ground is sufficiently wet from previous rainfall events. As noted above, there were two (2) exceedances of the 24-hour standard for total suspended particulate matter. As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the wind conditions on the days of exceedance indicate that the particulate measured was likely due to a combination of vehicle movement within the landfill facility and background or non-Ottawa Landfill source(s). Since the source(s) of the dust appear to be related to a combination of on-site and off-site sources, there are no specific action items being noted nor are there any changes to the monitoring plan at this time. Ottawa Landfill site should continue to monitor dust conditions at the site and apply water on all roads as required to reduce the potential for fugitive dust from the site.

ADDITIONAL REPORTING As noted in the September 20, 2007 workplan and as indicated in the existing Certificate of Approval, WM is required to provide notification to the Local District Office of the MOE (Ottawa District Office) as soon as practical after receiving the sample results. This notification should be issued to Mr. Greg Davis as soon as practical in order to comply with the existing Certificate of Approval. In addition, WM is also required to identify the potential sources resulting from the exceedance and provide action items for completion if the sources are attributable to the Ottawa Landfill operations. This letter outlines the potential sources of dust based on the meteorological conditions during the elevated sampling event (related to background sources) and therefore no further actions or changes to the monitoring are required at this time for the Ottawa Landfill site.

Email: [email protected]
Dear Mr. Godin:
RWDI AIR Inc. (RWDI) was retained by Waste Management of Canada Corporation (WM) to complete
the Total Suspended Particulate Matter (TSP) and Airborne Metal (Metals) sampling required under the
Amended Provisional Certificate of Approval A461002 Notice 7 dated March 7, 2008. The sampling
program is being completed as approved by the Ontario Ministry of the Environment under Condition
21.3.1 The program was approved based on the “Ambient Air Quality Work Plan” dated September 30,
2007 in the Amended Provisional Certificate of Approval A461002 Item 13 in Schedule B.2 The program
consists of TSP and airborne metals at three (3) stationary locations operating on a 6-day cycle from May
to September and Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) and Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S) sampling,
concurrently upwind and downwind during the months of June, July, and August (and September if
required) for a total of five (5) sample sets per year. This letter outlines the results from the sampling
completed from September 1st to September 25th, 2013 for the TSP and airborne metals.
SAMPLING PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Each sample location has one (1) High Volume Air samplers (Hi-Vols) which run on a 6 day schedule.
Each sample period consisting of a 24-hour (midnight to midnight) sample that operates in concurrence
with North American Pollutant Sampling (NAPS) schedule. During the period of September 1st to
September 25th, 2013 a total of eleven (11) out of a possible fifteen (15) samples were collected. Some
of the samples were not collected due to equipment malfunction.
The results of the TSP measurements are presented Table 1, below, respectively from the Northeast,
Southeast and Southwest samplers. 1 Ontario Ministry of the Environment Certificate of Approval A461002 Notice 7, dated March 7, 2008. 2 RWDI Air Inc. Ambient Air Quality Work Plan – Ottawa Landfill RWDI Reference Number W07-5258A dated September 20, 2007.

Notes: Bold – Values that are above the O.Reg.419 Schedule 3 Standard of 120 µg/m³ One (1) sample was measured in excess of the O.Reg.419/05 Schedule 3 Standard for Suspended
Particulate Matter. The exceedance occurred on September 19th. Figure 1 illustrates the sample
locations, measured TSP concentrations, and the windrose depicting the wind conditions on the days the
exceedances were measured. The windroses express the frequency of time the wind is blowing from
each direction and provide the average wind speed for each direction. As shown in the figures, the
elevated levels at the SE Hi-Vol appear to be from a combination of background or non-Ottawa Landfill
sources (Carp Road and quarry across Carp Road) and movement of vehicles on roads within the landfill
facility.
A summary of the calculated statistics for measured concentrations of TSP at the Ottawa Landfill Site
sampling locations is presented in Table 2.

During this time period, airborne metals were assessed for each filter collected. The list of airborne
metals consisted on Lead, Manganese, Chromium, Cadmium and Nickel. All measured concentrations of
metals were below their respective air quality standards as outline in Ontario Regulation 419. Tables 3a

CURRENT MITIGATION MEASURES AND ADDITIONAL ACTIONS
Currently, particulate emission mitigation measures are in place at the Ottawa Landfill Site and consist of
watering of on-site roadways and construction sites. The practices listed above will not occur if
precipitation events cause these activities to become redundant or if the ground is sufficiently wet from
previous rainfall events.
As noted above, there was one (1) exceedance of the 24-hour standard for total suspended particulate
matter. As shown in Figure 1, the wind conditions on the days of exceedance indicate that the particulate
measured was likely due to a combination of vehicle movement within the landfill facility and background
or non-Ottawa Landfill source(s). Since the source(s) of the dust appear to be related to a combination of
on-site and off-site sources, there are no specific action items being noted nor are there any changes to
the monitoring plan at this time. Ottawa Landfill site should continue to monitor dust conditions at the site
and apply water on all roads as required to reduce the potential for fugitive dust from the site.
ADDITIONAL REPORTING
As noted in the September 20, 2007 workplan and as indicated in the existing Certificate of Approval, WM
is required to provide notification to the Local District Office of the MOE (Ottawa District Office) as soon
as practical after receiving the sample results. This notification should be issued to Mr. Greg Davis as
soon as practical in order to comply with the existing Certificate of Approval.
In addition, WM is also required to identify the potential sources resulting from the exceedance and
provide action items for completion if the sources are attributable to the Ottawa Landfill operations. This
letter outlines the potential sources of dust based on the meteorological conditions during the elevated
sampling event (related to background sources) and therefore no further actions or changes to the
monitoring are required at this time for the Ottawa Landfill site.
