<DIV id=yiv758127549>Dear Mayors and Council members</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My name is Louisette Lanteigne and I recently completed an OMB appeal in the City of Waterloo where my experts met with officials from Stantec and agreed to concessions that identified the studies conducted by Stantec as insufficient. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The original draft plan of subdivision would have introduced housing in the capture zone of a vernal pond feature which the MNR recognized as "potential" Jefferson Salamander habitat. They were also going to put a storm water management pond in Clair Creek, a known fishery. The creek has a loosing recharge. If built as planned it would have introduced enough road salt into the aquifers to potentially close municipal wells according to Professor Emeritus Emil Frind, one of Canada's top Hydrologist. The margin of error to exceed the MOE recommended chloride levels was 0.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>In the attachments are the experts minutes from OMB case number PL071044. Please note how many of the studies were clearly identified by all parties as being insufficient. I send this information to you in good faith to mitigate the potential risks associated with other proposals studied by this particular agency, </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have also included a Power Point Presentation specific to issues regarding the Nelson Aggregate proposed expansion, a proposal which Stantec also worked on. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thank you kindly for your time. If you have any further questions and/or comments please don't hesitate to ask. </DIV>
