Les Huber spoke regarding TWP 474 costs and estimates. He believes the unrestricted surplus thing is being abused and does not like the practice. He stated the road should never have been built to start with. Garry Mastre asked what was the cost to put the road in for the sewer system in Rocky Rapids? Who did the engineering? Was there a water study done? There are 100 foot culverts and it is way over 30 degree slope. The road has dropped and is heading into the creek. He encouraged Council to go have a look. Stated that now RR 72 is going to have to be rebuilt because it doesn’t have proper ditches. Alan Taylor questioned the parks day funding and why is the County supporting money for it when it is a Provincial park? He asked about Willey West campground and when they built the bridge and took away the stalls. Who is rebuilding that and is there sewer electricity going in there? Who is paying for this? If it is the County why? The campground attendant should reimburse the County as he is benefiting. On June 21 the aerator demo had a good turn out and he thinks it is a promising thing and was happy with it.

Feedback from vendors included the following comments:

"Logistically, the event was flawless! There was enough equipment to keep everything frommoving around in the winds, the layout worked well, and checking In on vendors throughout the

event was great." - (Inside Education)

"Thank you for having usi We enjoyed ourselves and It was nice to see the community come out

and support. My only feedback would be more advertising would draw more people in. I had

friends and family telling people about it the day before, of and after and 98% of them didn't

even know the event was happening or had happened." - (The Oil Life)

"I think even ending It at 3:00 would be fine. I think you might have used more social media toadvertise, but all In all it was very good." - (Wendy Hewitt)

"We feel that It went okay, but, we would suggest: Better advertising/prior exposure: we spoketo many people who didn't know about It until It was overfull day is probably too long, possibly10-3 would be better and more vendors Thanks for having usi" - (ATB Financial)

UPDATE REPORT TO COUNCIL

July 13, 2017 Tornado -Optional funding sources for residents

July 17, 2018

Merlin Klassen - Director of Emergency Management

At the June 5, 2018 regular council meeting. Council asked administration

to look into possible funding options to assist residents affected by the July

13, 2017 Tornado with their recovery efforts. The two options put forward

by Council were the Fire Marque Program and the Fire Smart program.

Fire Marque is a Canadian company that works closely with fire

departments creating bylaws for invoicing of services and recovery of funds

from insurance providers. Fire Marque provides a new revenue stream for

Fire Departments, has insurance claims technical expertise, and owns the

intellectual rights to Indemnification Technology®. There are no applicable

services available that would assist the residents affected by the tornado

with their recovery efforts.

The FireSmart program uses preventative measures to reduce wildfire

threat to Albertans and their communities while balancing the benefits of

wildfire on the landscape. FireSmart is living with and managing for

wildfire. Although there are grant funding options available through the

FireSmart program the avenues available for residents is mainly for

education and to assist community groups in organizing property

assessments and preventative FireSmart priority zones. The FireSmart

program currently does not have grant funding options available to assist

the residents affected by the tornado with their recovery efforts.

That Council proceed with First, Second, unanimous consent for Third Reading, and Third Reading of

Bylaw 993-18, being the Parkland County and Brazeau County Intermunicipal Development Plan (IDP).

1. TOPIC DEFINED

Executive Summary/Key lssue(s)/Concepts Defined:

Recent changes to the Municipal Government Act (MGA) require Brazeau County to complete

Intermunicipal Collaboration Frameworks (ICFs) and IDPs with all neighbouring municipalities. An

ICF is a tool to facilitate cooperation between neighbouring municipalities in order to ensure

municipal services are provided to residents efficiently. To have a completed ICF requires

neighbouring municipalities to also adopt an IDP. The purpose of having both an IDP and ICF is to

ensure that the services and land use planning are compatible. The Brazeau County and Parkland

County IDP project began on February 10, 2018 when both Administrations met to discuss the

scope and requirements of the IDP. Following this meeting both Counties worked collaboratively

to complete the proposed IDP.

Highlights from the Proposed IDP

The policies in the IDP apply to the IDP Plan Area. The plan area is defined as "800 metres from

the Brazeau County and Parkland County boundary lines or from the top of bank of a waterbody

or watercourse". The plan area covers just over 8,000 ha of land in both municipalities.

The IDP policies confirm that the primary land use in the plan area is agriculture and that where

possible, future residential land uses should minimize impacts to agricultural land. Policies in this

section also detail the application referral process for both municipalities as they relate to new

Area Structure Plans and amendments, subdivision applications and discretionary development

permits in the plan area.

Policies also confirm the collaboration between both municipalities on natural resourceextraction and processing uses in the plan area as it relates to the development and expansionof local roads and haul routes. IDP policies in Section 8 acknowledge the need to work togetherto diversify the local economy in the plan area, and to collaborate on potential (future) tourismand recreational opportunities that support all residents. The policies in Section 10 specify howpotential disputes on land use issues within the plan area will be addressed. The disputeresolution processes are supported by both municipalities.

Public Consultation

A joint public open house was held on June 11, 2018 from 5:00-7:00 PM at the Brazeau CountyOffice to allow residents from both Counties the opportunity to provide comments on the draftiDP. Three (3) public members attended the open house and no concerns were noted. Theproposed IDP was circulated to internal departments, external agencies and to all landownerswithin the plan area (within Brazeau County). No concerns were received.

To expedite the ICF project, staff is bringing the IDP for all three readings and holding the PublicHearing at the same Council meeting. Parkland County Council is following this same process onJuly 10, 2018. The overall timeline for the ICF project is outlined in Appendix B. Since an ICF isonly "complete" if the municipalities also have an IDP in place. Administration recommendsapproving the proposed IDP first, then approving the proposed ICF.

Relevant Policy:

MGA Section 708.3(1) states an ICF is not complete unless the Councils of the municipalities thatare parties to the framework have also adopted an IDP.

Strategic Relevance:

Approval of the IDP will ensure a more integrated and strategic approach to intermunicipal landuse planning and service delivery for Brazeau County and its residents.

1. TOPIC DEFINED

Executive Summary/Key lssue{s)/Concepts Defined:

The Municipal Government Act (MGA) requires all municipalities to complete ICRs with all

neighbouring municipalities. An ICR is a tool to facilitate cooperation between neighbouring

municipalities in order to ensure municipal services are provided to residents efficiently. To have

a completed ICR requires neighbouring municipalities to also adopt an Intermunicipal

Development Plan (IDP). The purpose of having both an IDP and ICR is to ensure that the services

and land use planning are compatible. ICRs must be completed by April 2020 in accordance with

the MGA. The Brazeau County and Parkland County ICR is the first ICR being presented to Council

for approval. In total, Brazeau County must complete seven (7) ICRs by April 2020.

At the July 3, 2018 Council Meeting, Bylaw 997-18 was presented for First and Second Reading.

Motion 0765/18-07-03 was passed to remove section 5.A(2)(b)(i) "Potential Services Brazeau

County may provide" out of the ICR agreement. Bylaw 997-18, as amended, was then given First

and Second Reading. As no Public Hearing is required for ICRs, Administration recommends that

Council give Third Reading of Bylaw 997-18.

Appendix C and that the Public Hearing for Bylaw 998-18 be scheduled for 10:30 AM on August 21,

1. TOPIC DEFINED


An application for subdivision has been received to subdivide Two (2) parcels of

approximately 4 ha (10 ac) each from the quarter section of SE 25-47-7-W5M. Currently

this is an undivided quarter-section, and these two parcels will be the first out. Thesubdivision of lots will encompass a current homestead, and create one vacant residential

lot. The application for subdivision cannot move forward to receiving conditional approval

until the lands are rezoned to suit the size of the proposed parcels. As such the application

for rezoning is to amend the zoning of a portion of the quarter-section, as shown in

Schedule A of Bylaw 998-18, from AG to AGH.

The Property is south east of the Hamlet of Buck Creek, and accessed by Range Road 70.

There are two other AGH District properties on the opposite side of Range Road 70, creating

a clustering effect. The subject property is not within an Area Structure Plan, therefore noother documents require amendment.

Reserve (UR) to Hamlet Residential (MR) and set the Public Hearing for August 21, 2018 at 10:00 am.

1. TOPIC DEFINED


In 2015, Brazeau County was updating its Land Use Bylaw and in doing so also reviewed the

zoning of many properties. Since several land use districts were being consolidated and new ones

created, Brazeau County updated the zoning of many properties. Bill Tatlow and Lorna O'Carroll,

landowners of Lots 31-34 Block 2 Plan 1989 KS within the Hamlet of Cynthia, received a letter

notifying them that their property would be rezoned from Urban Reserve (UR) to Hamlet

Residential (HR) since they had an existing dwelling on the property. Unfortunately, due to the

size of the project and the many properties undergoing a similar process, the Tatlow and O'Carroll

property was not rezoned and remains UR today. While seeking compliance for their property,they were made aware of their UR zoning and since their property should be zoned to HR,

Administration is bringing forward this rezoning.

The rezoning are is a total of 0.38 acres (four 0.095 acre lots) and would be consolidated into oneparcel to bring the existing manufactured home into compliance. The subject lands are located

within the Hamlet of Cynthia and access onto 49 Street. The proposed rezoning meets the

requirements of the County's Municipal Development Plan (MDP) and Cynthia Area Structure

Plan (ASP), and as such Administration recommends approval of First Reading.

That Council direct Administration to bring forward Land Use Bylaw (LUB) amendments to accommodate

Cannabis Retail Stores and Cannabis Production and Distribution Facilities, as outlined in Option A.

1. TOPIC DEFINED

Executive Summary/Key lssue(s)/Concepts Defined;The federal government introduced legislation to legalize cannabis for recreational use byOctober 17, 2018. To prepare for this change, Brazeau County began consulting the community

in March 2018. The County distributed a survey to residents by mail and also made it available

online, asking if the County should have uses such as Cannabis Retail Stores and Cannabis

Production and Distribution Facilities, and if public consumption of cannabis should be allowed.

The County also hosted public open houses and a workshop with targeted stakeholders to informchanges to the Land Use Bylaw and provide input for potential new bylaws. In total, the Countyreceived almost 400 surveys and input from many stakeholders including residents, business

owners, agricultural producers. School Trustees, Community Peace Officers and RCMP members.

At the May 15, 2018 Council Meeting, the findings from the public consultation were presentedand a workshop with Council was held to go over these findings in more detail. Based on the

Council workshop, two options are summarized below for Council consideration. These options

focus on LUB changes to address Cannabis Retail Stores and Production and DistributionFacilities. If Council directs Administration to prepare LUB amendments for cannabis uses.

Administration will also include amendments to address Industrial Hemp. Potential new bylaws,

such as a Smoking Bylaw to address public consumption, may be brought to Council at a future

date but is not contemplated in this report.

APPENDIX "B"

Regulations to Support the Coming into Force ofthe Can nab is Act

Regulations under the Cannabis Act will establish the rules and standards that willapply to the production, distribution, sale, importation and exportation of cannabisby federal licence holders. Those regulations will be published in the CanadaGazette, Part II, on July 11, 2018.

There are four new sets of regulations under the Cannabis Act.

• Cannabis Regulations

• the new Industrial Hemp Regulations

• Qualifications for Designation as Analyst Regulations (Cannabis)

• Cannabis Act (Police Enforcement) Regulations

When the Cannabis Act and its regulations come into force on October 17, 2018,

cannabis will cease to be regulated under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act

(CDSA) and will instead be regulated under the Cannabis Act.

At that time we will repeal the two following regulations under the Controlled Drugs

and Substances Act:

• Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations

• the current Industrial Hemp Regulations

Certain regulations under the Food and Drugs Act will also be amended. Including

the:

• Cannabis Exemption (Food and Drugs Act) Regulations

• Natural Health Products Regulations

Cannabis Regulations

As set out in the Cannabis Regulations-.

• licences will be required for:

o cultivating and processing cannabis

o sale of cannabis for medical purposes

o analytical testing of and research with cannabis

98

• permits will be required to import or export cannabis for:

o scientific or medical purposes, or

o industrial hemp

• licence holders will be subject to strict physical and personnel security

requirements

• plain packaging will be required for cannabis products:

o the Regulations set out strict requirements for:

o logos

o colours

o branding

o cannabis products must also be labelled with:

o mandatory health warnings

o standardized cannabis symbol

o specific information about the product

• access to cannabis for medical purposes will continue to be provided for

patients who need it:

o the Regulations will substantively incorporate the current rules foraccess to cannabis for medical purposes, as set out in the Access to

Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations

o certain changes have been made to create consistency with rules fornon-medical use of cannabis, to improve patient access and to reduce

the risk of abuse of the system

• manufacturers of prescription drugs containing cannabis, while primarilysubject to the Food and Drugs Act and its regulations, will also be subject tocertain regulatory requirements set out in the Cannabis Regulations

Industrial Hemp Regulations

Industrial hemp is cannabis that contains 0.3% tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) or lessin the flowering heads and leaves.

The new Industrial Hemp Regulations under the Cannabis Act set out therequirements for cultivators of industrial hemp. As is currently the case, cultivatorsof industrial hemp must grow from the hemp varieties approved for commercialcultivation.

While the new Industrial Hemp Regulations are generally consistent with thecurrent Industrial Hemp Regulations:

• some changes have been made, with the goal of aligning licencerequirements to the relatively low risk posed by industrial hemp as comparedwith other varieties of cannabis

99

• the sale of hemp plants (flowers, leaves and branches) to licensed cannabis

processors will be permitted, to provide a source of low THC, high

cannabidiol (CBD) cannabis products

Consultations

The regulatory framework was built on:

• existing regulations for current producers of cannabis for medical purposes

and industrial hemp

• extensive consultations undertaken by the Task Force on Cannabis

Leoalization and Regulation, with:

o experts

o patients and advocates

o employers and industry

o provinces, territories, and municipalities

o Indigenous governments and representative organizations

In addition, we undertook consultations with interested parties on a detailed

consultation paper entitled Proposed Approach to the Regulation of Cannabis.

During the 60-day public comment period we received more than 3,200 responses

to an online questionnaire and 450 written submissions. We also undertook

targeted consultations (both in-person and web-based) with:

the provinces and territories

Indigenous governments and representative organizations

the cannabis industry (existing and prospective licensees)

public health organizations

patients and patient advocates

In March 2018, we published a Summarv of Comments Received During the PublicConsultation, which summarized the feedback received from thousands of

Canadians.

Documents Incorporated by Reference in the Regulations

"Incorporation by Reference" is a term used to describe a mechanism that allows a

document or list that is not in the text of the regulations to be made a part of the

regulations.

Documents incorporated by reference have the force of law.

Both Councils are being made aware of the proposed hosting, and asked if they are willing tosupport the conference. This support would be in the form of committing to a monetaryallotment to be included in the 2019 budget. If the Councils are not amenable to supporting theco-hosting of this conference, we would like to provide that information to the ADOA board bythe end of August. This timeline allows for the next interested community to host the 2019conference instead. Normally, a 'handover' to the next hosting committee is done after eachconference, held at the end of September.

Councillor Pension Plan

July 17, 2018

Brenda Christie, Director of Corporate Services

At its meeting on June 19, 2018 Brazeau County Council reviewed anddiscussed Council-13 Councillor Pension Plan Policy and passed the

following motion:

0699/18-06-19 Moved by H. Swan that Administration bring back theinformation on the description of a pension plan and

plan options for July 17, 2018.

CARRIED

Administration has contacted Brazeau County's benefits broker to provide

clarity on the items discussed by Council.

Councillors are currently enrolled in a Registered Pension Plan where theycontribute 5% on their honorarium, which is matched by Brazeau County.

Those enrolled in the plan are required to contribute at least 5% of theirearnings. Members may voluntarily contribute more than 5%, but not less.If a councillor wishes to stop making contributions to the plan, but remain amember, it is considered a suspension. If this occurs, no employercontribution is made until the Councillor resumes their 5% contribution per

honoraria.

If Councillors do not wish to take part in the Registered Pension Plan they

may opt out.

If a member retires or their council term ends, a Notice of Termination

form must be provided to the plan's administrative specialist. A package ofoptions is then mailed to the member. Options will vary depending onfactors such as account balance, age of councillor, etc.

Administration has hard copies of the current member handbook and the

agreement with RMA (Formerly AAMDC) available and electronic copieswere emailed to members.

Research by the RMA Plan Administrator has shown there is currently aCounty that offers a 9% match on contributions (for employees) to the

Brazeau County - Report to Council - Councillor Pension PlanPage 1 of 2

107

Registered Pension Plan. Additional Information has been requested fromthe Plan Administrator as to whether or not we can amend our plan and

the process we would need to follow, as the agreement Includes amultitude of municipalities. Administration can provide any additionalInformation at the Council meeting.

Brazeau County's unionized employees participate In the Local AuthoritiesPension Plan (LAPP) and currently contribute 9.39% up to the yearlymaximum pensionable earnings (YMPE) and 13.84% over the YMPE on basewages (no overtime). The employer contribution Is 10.39% up to the YMPEand 14.84% over the YMPE. These rates are established by LAPP and not

set by the employer. Brazeau County's non-union employees participate Ina Manullfe Registered Pension Plan, TFSA and offset equal to the LAPPcontributions.

Administration Is seeking direction from Council on how they would like to

proceed. It may be worthwhile to have a presentation from RMA on theCouncil pension plan and any other options that may be available to themembership.

Brazeau Sports Park Wi-Fi

July 17, 2018

Dennis Wong, IT Manager JXO

As per motion 0512/18-05-04, Brazeau County Administration was directedto research the feasibility to have a Wi-Fi solution available in the Brazeau

Sports Park.

Mage Networks, a company whom Reeve B. Guyon was introduced to at

the Globe Conference he attended, was to be evaluated to provide the

solution. It was later decided and Council directed Administration to

proceed with implementing a Wi-Fi solution using Mage Network's designand technology for Eco Fair on June 23, 2018 with a $10,000 budget.The Information Technology (IT) Department initiated contact with Mage

Networks on May 16 to discuss various items - the technology, proposed

design, equipment costs, power needs, installation and configuration, andsystem security. From the initial meeting a quote was requested. After a

few revisions a final quote of $5,391.23 was given. Additional details on thequote are:

• Limited time promotion was in place that gave customers a 50%

discount on only Mage Network devices.

• Solar power system was priced at a maximum $1,000 as Mage

Networks could not give a definite price for it at the time the quote

was requested.

• A 90 day trial period guarantee was given if Brazeau County is not

satisfied with the solution.

• It was up to Brazeau County to perform the physical installation

A demo was scheduled on May 23, 2018 to assess the technology and have

any additional questions answered. The demo was somewhat

disappointing in that it was on a small scale that covered an area from the

Administration Building's parking lot to about halfway up the Brazeau

Sports Park parking lot. Technology was proven to work but it was stillunclear if it would truly cover the entire sports park. Additionally, the IT

Department ended up with some concerns after the demo and discussionswith Mage Network (See Appendix A).

Brazeau County - Report to Council - Brazeau Sports Park Wi-FiPage 1 of 4

109

On June 5, Administration, with interim CAO approval, proceeded with theimplementation of the Wi-Fi solution. The following is a list of additionalresources required to move forward with the implementation:

• Electrician to run CATS cables from the roof of the shop into the

server room

• Brazeau County internal resources to physically install the Wi-Fi

devices and operate machinery

The solar power system was not received in time for the Eco Fair toimplement the entire Wi-Fi solution for the Brazeau Sports Park. As atemporary work around. Mage Networks provided batteries that could beused to power the devices during the event. Administration was able tohave the Wi-Fi access point at the Administration Building along with oneadditional access point by the Sports Park storage structure working for EcoFair.

During the Eco Fair, IT was able to validate that Wi-Fi signal was available inthe Administration Building parking lot. Further testing also proved that itwas reaching out to parts of the Brazeau Sports Park. Some verbal feedbackwas received during the event that indicated appreciation of having Wi-Fiavailable at the Eco Fair.

To conclude, at this point in time the Wi-Fi is offline. IT is working onputting the solar power system together, working with the owner of theSports Park storage structure to determine how best to mount theremaining devices. With the completion of the trial run during the Eco Fairthere are a number of items that IT would recommend Council consider

before deciding on next steps of having a Wi-Fi solution for other parts ofthe County (See Appendix B).


110

Appendix A

The following is a list of feedback items that resulted from the ITDepartment's interactions with Mage Networks and the implementation ofthe Wi-Fi solution:

• Mage Networks is a young company and they do not have fullydeveloped documentation required for installation of their devices.They required time to produce them and having one of theirrepresentatives on site to guide us.

• It was up to the customer to find their own solution to keep thesystem secure, including ensuring protecting County data frompublic access.

• Internet was provided by connecting to the AdministrationBuilding's network. This was a major security concern. It took a lotof effort on the IT department's part to segregate and ensureproper security protocols were in place to protect County data frombeing accessed by the public. In the future if we proceed on apermanent basis, one solution could be an isolated physical internetconnection and not use the current Administration Building's

internet.

• Mage Networks is not a Wi-Fi solution provider, they are truly onlyproviding the devices/equipment. It is entirely up to the customerto do the following:

o Obtaining internet via third-party Internet Service Providero Finding the software needed to monitor, log, manage and

maintain the Wi-Fi solution

• Administration appreciated Mage Networks meeting in person to

demonstrate and explain their technology and doing whatever is

needed to have our questions answered.

• Due to the short timeframe to have Wi-Fi available for the Eco Fair,

Mage Networks did have someone personally deliver and provideguidance on installing their devices.


111

Appendix BThe following is a list of items the IT Department would like to bringforward and be considered for continuing the use of Wi-Fi at the Brazeau

Sports Park:

• Currently we have a basic Acceptable Use page for authorizingaccess to the public Wi-Fi. We need to review this component toensure Brazeau County is properly protected against improper use.

• The 90-day trial period expires on September 5, 2018. Council willneed to direct Administration as to the continuance or

discontinuance of the Wi-Fi Pilot Project prior to that date.

• What are the measures of success? What are the metrics we are

going to use to prove the Wi-Fi solution is feasible, meeting publicneeds and achieving its purpose?

The following is a list of items the IT Department would like to makeCouncil aware of for future planning on a Wi-Fi solution for the County:

• Allocate efforts to research current Wi-Fi technologies available

from different companies.

• Research companies that can provide both product and services to

manage and maintain full Wi-Fi solutions.

• Given current Brazeau County resources, utilize a consultingcompany that has knowledge and expertise to manage futureprojects.

Brazeau County retained WSP Canada Inc. (WSP) to determine if the Rocky Rapids Lagoon AccessRoad (the Project), located within the NW 34-049-07 W5M, crosses any wetlands or watercourses. Theproject Is designed to provide permanent access, on County owned land, to the Rocky RapidsWastewater Lagoon site. The current access uses private oil and gas lease roads.

To determine the presence of wetlands or watercourses, historical images from 1950, 1969, 1977, 1987,1995, 2003, 2000, and 2012 were reviewed in a geographic information system. The historical aerialimages were selected, as close as possible, to the wettest conditions available to provide the maximumpossible extent of any potential wetlands.

To provide accurate wetland boundaries and classifications a field assessment was required. The fieldvisit was conducted on May 23, 2018. At the time of the field visit, vegetation along the length of theProject had been cleared.

Wetlands are identified in the field using characteristics that Indicate water tolerant vegetation and waterinfluenced soils. A watercourse Is Identified by the presence of an active channel, defined as the part ofa waterbody's bed and bank, that lack terrestrial vegetation.''

Table 1 summarises the field characteristics of each assessment point made along the lagoon accessroad alignment. An overview of the alignment and assessment point locations is presented on Figure 1,Attachment A. Site photographs are presented in Attachment B.

Michael Goldade, Interim Director, Public Works

Council on May IS'*', 2018 adopted motion 0566/18-05-15 "Moved by A.Heinrich to direct Administration to' bring back the cost of the design, build

and funding source to the June 5, 2018 Council meeting for approval for RR53 from HWY39 to TWP 490 to ensure the work is completed in 2018."

Council in response to Administration's update report presented on June5'^^ 2018 further adopted motion 0625/18-06-05 "Moved by A. Heinrich toreceive the report for information."

On June 21^^ 2018 the geotechnical report was received from theConsultant (Attachment) that included 4 options to remediate the slideissue. These options are 1 - Toe Buttress Fill (most cost-effective but leastinvasive), 2 - Stability Pile Wall (effective but costly), 3 - Lightweight FillReplacement (cheaper than a Pile Wall but more costly than option 1), 4 -Observe and Maintain (Not feasible with asphalting the road surface).

In order for an Engineer to design and certify one of the proposed optionsinstallation of boreholes is required in order to obtain exact plain of the slipcircle as well as in-situ conditions.

Administration is awaiting pricing from the Consultant to conduct a

detailed investigation and design of the options, upon receipt of which

Council will be briefed with a detailed report for their consideration.

RANGE ROAD 53 SLOPE STABILITY

BRAZEAU COUNTY, ALBERTAPRELIMINARY GEOTECHNCIAL ASSESSMENT

Dear Sir,

As requested, Thurber Engineering Ltd. (Thurber) is pleased to submit this letter reportproviding preliminary geotechnical assessment of the stability of the roadway embankmentlocated on the east side of Range Road 53, approximately 160 m to 320 m south of Highway39 in Brazeau County (County), Alberta. The approximate location of the site is shown onDrawing No. 23103-1, attached to this letter.

This work was completed in general conformance with Thurber's proposal letter, datedMay 28, 2018. Permission to proceed was granted via email by Mr. Kelly Brouwer, P.Eng. ofWSP Canada Inc. (WSP) on May 31, 2018. Site survey data was provided to Thurber onJune 4, 2018.

It is a condition of this tetter report that Thurber's performance of its professional services will besubject to the attached Statement of Limitations and Conditions.

1. BACKGROUND

it is understood that the roadway embankment along the east side of Range Road53 experienced a slide movement in 2010. Attempted stabilization of the embankmentslope involved the installation of two rows of 7-inch diameter pipe piles ranging in depth from9 m to 12 m. No design or construction record drawings are available on the as-builtstabilization piles. It is unknown whether the installed piles were an engineered solution orconstructed as a more economical effort to curtail the slope movements. The survey dataprovided by WSP to Thurber on June 4, 2018 indicated that only one row of piles was found inplace. The embedment depth of the as-buiit piles could not be measured.

The existing Range Road 53 is surfaced with gravel and it is understood that Brazeau County isplanning to pave the road with asphalt in the future which may involve lowering the existingroadway grade near the slide location, depending on the results of land acquisition efforts.

Before proceeding with the asphalt paving of the road along the portion adjacent to this previousslide, Brazeau County would like to perform a geotechnical assessment to determine the

long-term stability of the embankment and provide recommendations on potential remediationmeasures to improve the stability of the existing embankment, if required.

This letter report provides a preliminary geotechnicai assessment of the existing embankmentslope and preliminary recommendations for possible stabilization strategies for the proposedroadway upgrading of Range Road 53.

2. SITE RECONNAISSANCE

Messrs. Stephen Coulter and Xiaobo Wang, both P.Eng. of Thurber travelled to the site onMay 25, 2018 and met with Messrs. Mike Downey, C.E.T., and Kelly Brouwer, P.Eng. of WSP todiscuss the site conditions and history.

As previously mentioned, it was discussed that the site has experienced a site movement in2010 with a subsequent stabilization effort consisting of a row (or rows) of pipe piles installed inJuly 2010 by the County.

Field observations indicated that the existing roadway embankment was approximately 8 m to10 m in height with a slope angle of approximately 2.5H:1V to 2H:1V. The slope was vegetatedwith grasses on the upper half of the slope, transitioning to mature trees on the lower half of theslope. A pond that appears to collect surface run-off from the surrounding higher elevation areaswas present near the toe of the embankment.

The property line of a residential house extends close to the toe of the embankment slope at theprevious landslide location. It is understood that there have been previous efforts to purchase aportion of the property to flatten the embankment slope. However, the purchase was notsuccessful, and the lack of land has been a previous design constraint.

Observations of the existing roadv/ay indicated signs of repair and grading in the area where theslope failure had occurred. Additionally, there was visual evidence of the installed guard railtilting away from the road towards the downslope direction. There did not appear to be anyexcessive movements of the roadway embankment slope. No toe bulging, or downslope tiltingof trees was observed during the May 25, 2018 site reconnaissance.

3. PRELIMINARY SLOPE STABILITY ANALYSES

The field observations indicated that the subject embankment slope has been experiencingcreep movements in the past. The observed slope movement is a result of construction of theembankment using side slope steeper than that typically recommended for the roadwayconstruction in Alberta.

Based on the discussions between Thurber and WSP at the site, it was determined to surveythe site and proceed with a preliminary geotechnicai investigation to investigate possiblemeasures to improve the stability of the embankment. Following the site reconnaissance, WSPcarried out a survey and provided the geodetic and topographical data to Thurber for the slopestability analyses.

A slope stability analysis was carried out for a representative section of the highwayembankment, based upon the survey data provided by WSP. This analysis was performedusing Slope/W, a program based on the limit equilibrium method, evaluate the stability ofexisting and reinforced slopes.

In general, the factor of safety of a slope is a measurement of the relative stability of the slopeand is defined by the available shear strength of the soil divided by driving forces acting on thesoil mass. A slope having a factor of safety (FOS) of unity is considered to be failing, whereas aslope calculated to have a FOS between 1 and 1.2 is typically considered as marginally stablebut may be at risk to undergo some movements, as is judged to be the case at this site.

The first step in the slope stability analysis for this project is to simulate the existing slopecondition. At this site, the slope was observed to be experiencing creep movements with anexpected factor of safety in the range from 1.1 to 1.2.

The effective shear strength parameters used in the slope stability analyses were first estimatedbased on local experience, geological evidence, and published data. The parameters wereadjusted based on the results of the back analyses to obtain the anticipated factor of safety(i.e. FOS between 1.1 and 1.2 to simulate a creeping slope).

The results of the stability analysis of the existing slope are present in Figure 1 attached to thisletter. With an effective friction angle of 19° and a cohesion of 4 kPa used for the existingembankment fill, the calculated factor of the safety at the current conditions is about 1.17.

4. STABILIZATION OPTIONS

To improve the stability of the existing slope, a target FOS of 1.3 was adopted in the slopestabilization design. The side slope with a minimum long-term factor of safety of 1.3 is typicallyconsidered stabie for highway embankments. Following the refinement of the strengthparameters of the inferred subsurface layers, additional stability analyses were undertakenusing Slope/W at a conceptual level to evaluate potential slope stabilization options.

The following sections provide discussion of the potential remedial options that are consideredfeasible at this site.

4.1 Option 1 - Toe Buttress Fill

The least invasive remedial option would be to construct a buttress fill at the toe of the existingembankment slope. As previously indicated, there may be property issues related to pursuingthis option. However, if these issues can be overcome, the analyses indicate that this option islikely the most cost-effective option.

The preliminary configuration of this toe berm is illustrated in the results of the analysis,attached as Figures 2 and 3, for local and global conditions, respectively. The local case is forthe existing embankment slope that would remain above the buttress fill, and the global case isfor the overall slope extending from crest to toe.


e-file: \\H\23103 prop - Edm Page 3 of 6

166

In order to achieve the minimum target FOS of at least 1.3 for both the global and local cases,the buttress fill would need to extend from the toe up to about 5 m (approximate elevation of781 m). The fill would extend 9 m eastward from the toe with a slope angle of 3H:1 V.

The toe berm should be constructed of low to medium plastic clay or approved granularmaterials compacted in place to at least 95 percent Standard Proctor Density. The new fillshould be keyed into the existing embankment and significant mature vegetation removal wouldhave to be undertaken on the lower half of the slope prior to fill placement. Surface drainagemeasures should be incorporated into the design in order to divert water off of the constructedbench area and around the embankment slope. This option could be completed relativelyquickly without closure of the roadway.

4.2 Option 2 - Stability Pile Wail

A second option is to install a pile wall near the midslope of the embankment. This pile wallwould consist of individual pile spaced at set intervals along the roadway alignment. Based onour previous experience with similar projects, the center-to-center spacing between piles shouldbe less than 3 times the pile diameter.

A preliminary slope stability analyses indicated that the stabilization piles providing a lateralretaining force of 50 kN per lineal meter of roadway alignment will improve the stability of theslope to a FOS of 1.3. The midslope location of the piles is recommended to deliver resistingforce to a significant portion of the driving mass. The slope stabilization piles must be anchoredinto stable ground below the slip surface. It is anticipated that the pile length will be in the orderof 15 m to have sufficient embankment into the native ground below the roadway embankment.

The primary advantage of this option is that it does not require the acquisition of property andwill be relatively fast to construct. The disadvantage is that it will most likely be costlier thanother options.

It is expected that the installation of a pile wall at this location will be undertaken from crest andmidslope locations, requiring the temporary closure of a portion of the existing roadway andtemporary grading works along the slope to allow equipment access.

4.3 Option 3 - Lightweight Fill Replacement

The third option would involve the excavation of the upper approximately 4 m of the exitingembankment, extending back approximately 4 m into the roadway. The excavated crest areawould them be reconstructed with geofoam blocks as a lightweight fill. The inclination of thereconstructed embankment slope should be consistent with the existing slope of flatter.

Because of its closed-cell structure and light weight, geofoam is buoyant. Potential flotationforces should be accounted for during design, construction and post-construction. A gravel layerand subdrains should be installed between the geofoam fill and natural soils to draingroundwater and reduce potential uplift forces.

Client: WSP Canada inc. Date: June 21. 2018File: 23103


167

This option requires the excavation of the affected roadway and necessitate a partial closure ofthe existing roadway during the excavation and embankment reconstruction. This option wouldmost likely be cheaper than the pile wall, but not as cost-effective as the buttress fill option.

4.4 Option 4 - Observe and Maintain

The final option that is available is the observe and maintain approach. As the slope does notappear to be at an imminent state of major movement or failure, it is considered possible tocontinue to observe and assess the condition of the embankment and roadway and provide along-term solution at a later date.

However, if this option is pursued, it should be recognized that some maintenance of theroadway surface and adjacent guard rail should be anticipated and planned. This is especiallytrue if the road is to be asphalt surface. As the slope continues to creep it is probable that thearea will need to be patched and/or resurfaced at a regular interval to account for the ongoingslope movement.

4.5 General Long-Term Considerations

Regardless of the selected option, there are several best practices that should be considered tomaintain the long-term stability of the slope.

No matter which construction option is selected, the surface of the slope should be re-vegetatedas quickly as possible following the completion of the works. Established vegetation will aide inthe resistance of surface erosion and will absorb surface water. This re-establishment mayrequire the installation of bio/photo-degradable natural fiber turf reinforcement mats to speedthis process and provide temporary protection while the vegetation grows.

Secondly, any remedial measure should fully consider the surface drainage patterns in the area.Diversion paths and site grading should be undertaken to route surface water around the slopearea towards lower elevation collection areas. The reduction of surface run-off over the

embankment will also serve to increase long-term stability.

5. FUTURE INVESTIGATION

The geotechnical assessment presented in this report was based on the field observations andbackground information provided by WSP to Thurber. No site-specific site investigation hasbeen carried out for this project to date. If slope stabilization Option 1, 2, or 3 is selected, basedon the project constraints, a detailed design should be carried out. The preliminary analysescompleted in this report should be refined with more accurate subsurface data collected from ageotechnical field investigation, instrumentation, and monitoring program.

It is recommended that the geotechnical investigation consist of at least two test holes: one atthe crest at the slope near the shoulder and guard rail area to a depth of approximately15 m: and another in the toe area to a depth of approximately 10 m. The field work will mostlikely require tree removal to access the toe area and a partial lane closure with traffic controlfor work in the crest area.

That Council direct Administration to limit the group campground lottery for local residents only for aone week period and to allow the general public to enter the group campground lottery thereafter.

1. TOPIC DEFINED


At the June 19"^ Council Meeting, Council passed the following motion:

0691/18-06-19 Moved by H. Swan to direct Administration bring back options for

booking of Easyford and Modeste group campgrounds by July 17, 2018.

CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY

For Council's reference, approximately 62% of group campground rentals in 2018 are local

(within the boundaries of Brazeau County). The majority of all bookings with a few exceptions

are taken on opening day for the campgrounds. Administration has been hosting a lottery to

establish the booking order for opening day. Should Council wish to make local residents a

priority for booking. Administration recommends booking for residents only for the first week

and booking for the general public thereafter. Note that this would foreseeably prevent any

non-local individuals from being able to book the campgrounds based on the current demand.

Relevant Policy:

None


Moving forward with limiting the group campgrounds' rental to locals only would improve theodds of local residents. From a cost-benefit approach, with the increased fees over the next two

Dear Minister Mason,

RE: Reconsideration of signage for the Brazeau County Administration Building

I am writing to request reconsideration of your ministry's decision not to allow signage onHighway 22 directing residentsand visitors to the Brazeau County Administration Building.

Our building, located on Township Road 494, can be difficult to see from the highway, especiallywhen traveling from the south, as the approaches in both directions are obscured by trees.Highway signage would facilitate better navigation to our building, which houses our corporateoffices. It is also the base of operations for our public works, infrastructure. Community Peace

Officer, and agriculture operations, in addition to the County's Emergency Operations Centre.

On a regular basis, our building host meetings of Council (including joint meetings with Town ofDrayton Valley and Village of Breton Councils), the Agricultural Service Board, the MunicipalPlanning Commission, the Brazeau Emergency Management Agency, and several moreorganizations. Residents come to the building to pay taxes and utilities, meet with staff, collectCounty and visitor information, and to rent agriculture equipment. We also welcome visitorsfrom other governments and organizations from across the province.

Given that the building is central to the governance and administration of the County, highwaysignage directing residents and visitors would be of great value to all involved. I respectfully askthat your direct your ministry to allow for the placement of a sign at a mutually acceptablelocation on Highway 22.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,

Bart Guyon,

DIRECTION from June 5,2018 Brazeau County Council meeting:

0647/18-06-05 Moved by H. Swan to direct Administration to revise FIN-7 Policy, community hallsection, as per Council's suggestions and have it brought back to Council for July3, 2018, including core funding for utilities and insurance.

CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY

As per Councils direction Administration updated the following sections:

Community Hail Operating Funding Policy:

Because grant payments are based on previous submitted receipts, to offset inflation last year's

expenses will be multiplied by the provinces Consumer Price Index.

Quarterly or annual grant payments are based on previous submitted receipts multiplied by the

Consumer Price Index, by province (monthly) (Alberta) (Source: Statistics Canada, CANSIM) ("CP!"

for the period of November to November of the previous year.

Cemetery Funding Policy:

To reflect relevant operating costs: Operating costs may include: grass cutting, landscaping,parking lot maintenance, minor repairs, marketing and promotions.


200

Museum Funding Policy:

The Drayton Valley & District Historical Society had approved funding increases in 2014 and 2018from $12,000.00 to $16,000.00 to $20,000.00. The Breton & District Historical Society has not

had an increase from its original 2009 approved amount of $12,000.00. They were howeverreceiving a $2,500.00 operating cost grant and received a 2016 insurance subsidy of $2,655.81for a total grant worth $17,155.81.

Administration is recommending that the Breton & District Historical Society should receive a

$20,000.00 grant which would include both the operating costs and insurance costs.

Community Hall Operating Funding has been changed to provide 100% core operating funding asper Councils direction as opposed to the previous 50% operating funding ($2,500.00 - $7,000.00)which was previously revised in 2015. Administration is recommending the following:

Assistance is available for Community Hall core operating costs up to a maximum of $12,000.00per year. Core operating costs will be refunded 100% based on the previous year's submittedreceipts. Refunded costs will include all utilities. Allowable operating costs will be limited to: firesuppression system servicing, septic servicing, heating, electricity, internet (max $1,200.00 peryear), telephone (max $600.00 per year) and insurance.

FIN-7 Community Hall Operating annual funding is currently at $65,000.00 Administration isrecommending raising this amount to $95,000.00. The extra $30,000.00 can be transferred fromthe existing FIN-7 insurance premium funding in the amount $30,000.00 with no change to theannual operating budget.

As per Strategic Priorities, Administration has reviewed FIN-7 Community Organization Fundingpolicy to include an interim funding option or "Emergency Funding" policy.

To help residents understand what capital funding is. Administration outlined what qualifies as a

capital project. See heading "Community Hall Capital Funding Policy" (pg. 7).


201

2.

In the opening policy statement, concluding paragraph it reads "The County should be seen as asource of funding only as a last resort". Preceding the Emergency Funding policy we reinforcethis by further clarifying that "Funder of Last Resort" means all other possible sources ofcontributions have been exhausted. The group would have to demonstrate they have attemptedto raise funds from other sources.

New section "Emergency Funding" states that this funding is only for unforeseen circumstancesthat call for immediate action in order to prevent irreversible damages/consequences to theasset/ community hall. The group has to demonstrate financial hardship that affects their abilityto operate. This will prevent groups from receiving "Emergency Funding" for general upgradesor improvements that could have been applied for under "Community Hall Capital FundingPolicy".

In the past, applications that qualified for capital funding were processed using emergencyfunding, however with this newly created section, groups will only qualify for this under unusualcircumstances. A group would need to demonstrate the need for interim finances, as per thepolicy.

Community Events Rolicy:

(10) The event should have a realistic budget, along with the capacity and business plan, t©

bocomo solf-sufficiont.

To align policy with current practices. Administration is recommending the removal of the above

words, as community groups depend on the generous support of Brazeau County.

What Is HCC? The Health Communities Coalition (HCC) is a not for profit organization, focused on building a community where people are supported, connected, resilient and safe. Unhinging our silos using extraordinary collaboration, HCC provides a platform for collaborative relationships that work towards preventing health and social issues by reducing risk factors, increasing protective factors and enhancing resiliency. Why should you get a membership? If you believe collaboration will enhance our community’s capacity for resilience, become a member. If you are extremely busy and can only come out once or twice a year we would still value your input immensely and ask that you join us! There is a group of dedicated volunteers that put in over 200 hours last year out in the community in schools and the general community, with face to face engagement on Traffic Safety Initiatives, Community Dinners, the Towns land use bylaw amendments, Cannabis talks and more. People trust affiliations and involvement. If your organization is a member of another organization, generally it’s considered to be an indicator of good practices, a reputable organization, and a leader in the community. HCC is supported by the Town of Drayton Valley, Brazeau County and the Village of Breton. The three way communication between the municipalities strengthens collaboration, streamlines services and creates consistency for fluid residents. Outside of time spent on-site with colleagues, attendees develop a vast network of peers they would be hard-pressed to find elsewhere, organizations that want to share ideas and learn new ones. Membership Details

Membership fees are $20.00 annually, per voting member. The society year runs from April 1st-March 31st.

As a member you receive up-to-date information and all professional development or educational offerings at a minimum 50% discount.

Thank you for your interest in our work. Members have made it possible for our community to grow stronger, intensifying the efforts all while managing our limited time resources wisely.
