WEST NILE VIRUS
Report 2001-MOH-10 "West Nile Virus" raises concerns that there is a potential that this
virus could fred its way into Ontario this year. Given that this potential virus is carded
by mosquitoes, the Medical Officer of Health has identified various measures that can be
implemented as a proactive attempt to avert the potential spread of this virus. I have
asked staff from the Health Department. to contact our Clerk in order that a presentation
can be made to our Council and Community. Since one of the major attractions for
mosquitoes is stagnant water, there will be a need for our Operations & Emergency
Services Department to take note of actions that will be necessary to ensure, wherever
possible, that our ditches are kept clear and risks caused by ponding in our parks are
responded to.
EMERGENCY SERVICES FACILITIES
In 2000 Pickering Council passed a resolution that sought a partnership in the location of
a new Fire Hall and Ambulance facility. The attached report from Drxham Region's
Emergency Services Department has noted that, based on service catchments ani5
required response times, the northern boundary for a future EMS facility would be
between Finch Avenue and Rossland Road to the north, Bayly Street to th~ south, Whites
Road to the west and Brock Road to the east. Given these service requirements it is not
-2-

likely that Durham Region will be partnering on our proposed new hall which will be
situated to respond to the 407 and North Picketing in Brougham.

Prepare~_ness Committee (DRWNVPC);
2. Key stakeholders including Regional staff, area municipalities, local

3. The DRWNVPC is d~rected to develop a Durham Region West Nile Virus Action
Plan by December 2001; and
4. The Premier of Ontario, Minister of Health and Long-Term Ca;.,e, Chief Medical
Officer of Health and Durham Region M.P.P.s are so advised.
REPORT:
The West Nile Virus (WNV) can cause an anthropod-borne clisease in birds,
mammals and humans. WNV was first isolated in Uganda in t937 and, since
then, has been a well-documented cause of disease in Africa, West Asia and
Eastern Europe. WNV was first detected in the Western Hernisphere in 1999
and was responsible for .61 human cases of encephalitis, iincluding seven
deaths, in the New York C~ty area. Since then, 21 more human cases of WNV
disease have been confirmed in three northeastern U.S. states. WNV infection
was confirmed in thousands of birds, several homes and other domestic
animals and wild life in the U.S. In 2000, 143 counties in 12 states, including
all but one county in New York State, had evidence of WNV activity in
mosquitoes, birds or mammals. Based on the 2000 geographic distribution of
WNV in the U.S., it is highly likely that WNV is already pre.,=ent in Ontario.
Mosquitoes are the primary vectors of WNV, which preferentially feed on
birds, but also on humans and other mammals.
2. On April 3, 2001, the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Ter~ Care released
the document West Nile VTrus: Surveillance and Prevention in Ontatfo, 2001
(Appendix A). The document states that the key preventive actions are
commonly called:
Report # 2001-MOH-10 cont,..
.o.2
(a) "source reduction" (reducing or eliminating mosquito breeding sites).
(b)"personal protective measures" against mosquitoes, mainly through
public education.
Since then, the U.S. Centres for Disease Control and Prevention released their
new guidelines for surveillance, prevention and control which state that
"Currently the most effective way to prevent transmission of WNV ... is to
reduce human exposure via mosquito control". Additional documents on
mosquito control are planned for release by Health Canada in late spring.
In Durham Region, WNV prevention requires a muiti-sectoral approach,
particularly regarding "source reduction" and mosquito control, to be truly
effective. In addition to the Region of Durham (i.e. Emergency Measures,
Health and Works staff) other key stakeholders should include the area
municipalities, local conservation authorities, and the Ontario Ministries of
Health ;~r~d 'Long-Term Care, Natural Resources and the Environment. To
address the threat of WNV in Durham Region, Health Department staff has
initiated discussions with municipal staff. In consultation with municipal staff,
Health Department staff recommends that a formal structure and process be
established and key stakeholders be invited to participate with the goal of
developing a Durham Region West Nile ViruS Action Plan for the
consideration, endorsement and implementation by the participating
stakeholders.

Introduction and Purpose of this Document

Introduction
The West Nile Virus (WNV) can cause an arthropod-borne disease in birds, mammals and
· humans. The virus was first isolated in Uganda in 1937, and since then, has been a well-
documented cause of disease in Africa, West Asia, and Eastern Europe. Prior to 1999, however,
WNV had never been detected in the Western Hemisphere. During the summer and fall of 1999,
the virus was responsible for (51 human cases of encephalitis, including 7 deaths, in New York
City (primarily the borough of Queens) and its surrounding counties. In the sur~_ rner and fall of
2000, there were 21 confirmed human cases of WNV disease, including two fatalities, in three
northeastern U.S. states. Fourteen of the cases resided in four counties of New York and the
epicenter was on Staten Island. In addition to the human cases, WNV infection was confirmed in
hundreds of birds, mainly Corvids (crows, ravens and jays), as well as in several horses, other
domestic animals and wildlife in the U.S. In the year 2000, 143 counties in 12 states had
evidence of WNV activity in mosquitoes, birds or mammals. All but one of the 62 counties of
New York S~t~te' found evidence of the virus. Mosquitoes are the primary vectors of West Nile
Virus, mainly the Culexpipiens/restuans species of mosquito, which preferentially feeds on
birds, but also on humans and other mammals.
Purpose of this Document: Surveillance and Prevention
The primary purpose of this document from the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Tenn Care
(MOHLTC) is to describe the Surveillance Plan for West Nile Virus (WNV) in the Province of
Ontario for the year 2001,' and the Prevention and Public Education measures aimed at reducing
the risk of WNV disease for the population of Ontario.
In brief, the Surveillance section of this document describes:
· the surveillance systems to id.entify West Nile Virus in birds, mammals and mosquitoes,
and
· the enhanced passive surveillance system for human cases of WNV disease.
In 2001, the Surveillance?lan for WNV in Ontario is focused on detecting evidence of WNV in
dead birds, primarily of the Corv/d family, and in humans who have the clinical presentation of
acute encephalitis or meningitis, which are reportable and communicable diseases under the
regulation in Ontario. The 2001 Surveillance Plan is based on the surveillance experience in
Ontario during the 2000 season and the recommendations of the National Steering Committee
for WNV (of which the MOHLTC is an active partiCipant).
Preventing WNV disease requires actions and a strategy to prevent or reduce human exposure to
the disease vectors, i.e. the species of mosquitoes capable of carrying and transmitting the virus

to humans (as well as to birds and mammals)..The key preventive actions are commonly called:
(1) "soUrCe reduction" (reducing or eliminafingmosquito breeding sites), and (2) "personal
protective measu~e-s'; against mosquitoes. The key strategy for implementing the,~se preventive
actions is through public education.
Although the unprecedented introduction of West Nile Virus in the Western Henfisphere in 1999
was a precipitating event for strengthening the infrastructure of public health, the: WNV outbreak
in the United States served as a reminder that new diseases and pathogens (whether arthropod-
borne or not) may emerge in the future. As Ontario moves forward to prevent the: occurrence of
WNV disease and to nainimiT~e its potential health impact, the strengthened infr~,~tructure and
communication networks may form a cohesive multi-agency approach for responding effectively
to other newly-emerging agents of disease.

West Nile Virus: Prevention and Public Education

4.1 Introduction
In order to reduce the Possibility of human contact with mosquitoes which are potential vectors
of West Nile Vires disease, two key types of preventive actions are recommended from a public
health perspective: (1) source reduction; the reduction or elimination of actual or potential
environmental habitats for mosquitoes (primarily their breeding sites but also their resting sites)
- and (2) personal protective measures that individuals can take to avoid, block or repel biting
mosquitoes. '
The important strategy for implementing these preventive actions is through public and
stakeholder education, including the use of effective communication products to convey accurate
and timely information and advice on the disease and its causative agent, and the preventive
actions to be taken to reduce the risk of acquiring the virus and consequent illness. Public
awareness in the methods of personal protection against biting mosquitoes and in remOving
breeding sites from their properties can comprise an effective and environmentally-accsptable
strategy in reducing disease risk.
Development and implementation of effective prevention measures against West Nile Virus
requires knowledge about the life cycle including breeding and feeding habits of the mosquito
species which can serve as vectors ia transmitting the virus to humans or host animals. Although
ticks can be vectors of WNV in the Eurasian and Af:riean continents, in North America (the
United States) to date, only mosquitoes are known to transmit the virus. The most common
vectors are those of the genus Culex and speciespipiens, along with the closely-related Culex
restuans. Culex mosquitoes preferentially feed on birds and secondarily, on humans and other
mammals. WNV has also been isolated from Culex salinarius in the salt marsh areas around
New York City. Other mosquito species found in the U.S. to carry the virus iuclude: ~ledes
vexans and Aeries albopictus, Ochlerotatus triseriatus and Ochlerotatus japonicus (these were
formerly in the Aedes genus), Anopheles punctipennis, and Psorophoraferox. Not all of these
mosquito species are found in Ontario.
Appendix 4 lists those mosquito genera and species found in Southern Ontario and indicates
which are the (so far) known carders of WNV, the host preferences of selected mosquito species,
their preferred breeding sites, and their respective life cycle patterns. In addition to these
mosquito characteristics, knowledge qfwhether they are "daytime biters" or "evening (dusk-
dawn) biters" influences the use of personal protective measures.

4.2 Biology and Life Cycle of Mosquitoes (
Mosquitoes are insects belonging to the order' Diptera, the True Flies. Like all True Flies, they have
two wings, but unlike other flies, their wings have scales and their mouthparts (in female mosquitoes)
form a long piercing-sue!ting proboscis. Males differ from-fc~males by having :lEathery antennae and
mouthparts not suitable for piercing skin. Only female mosquitoes take a "blood meal" fi.om a hosts --
amphibians, reptiles, birds, or mammals (including humans) - in order to obtain a protein source for
egg production. Males do not bite but feed on plant nectar, as females do to st~pplement their diets.
Mosquito larvae occur in discrete aquatic habitats. The most common nuisance species breeds in
temporary rainwater pools of two to three weeks' duration. Vector species breed in all types of
semi-permanent and permanent aquatic habitats. Unlike black flies, which breed in running
water, mosquitoes tend to breed in still water. Eggs are laid singly or in rafts on the water
surface. Larvae emerge and eventually change to a pupa which, in turn, chang~ to adults.
In the spring, the first group of mosquitoes to emerge that bite humans include the "spring .~edes
species". These are predominantly Aedes stimulans, ~,ledes trichurus and Aeries.: implicatus. They
breed in winter snow melt pools and produce only one generation of adults pe~ year and peak
biting time is late May to early ;July.
In the summer, the second group of mosquit°es to emerge that bites humans includes the
',summer Aedes species". These are primarily He.des v~ans and He. des dorsallY. They breed in
temporary warm-water flooded pools (usually present aider heavy rains) and ~tay produce many
generations over th.~ summer, especially in years of heavy rainfall and warm temperatures.
The Culex species are not major biters of humans, prefen'ing birds as hosts. Culex prefer to
breed in permanent stagnant (standing) water in mid- to late summer. When populations pf this
species increase due to favourable w6ather and other conditions, they will often find other hosts
in addition to birds on which to feed. This creates a potential for the transmis~fion of an
arbovirus such as St. Louis or West Nile encephalitis virus. Although other r~osquitoes may be
involved in acting as vectors of an arbovirus, CulexpipienS is the predominant species of
mosquito linked to West Nile Virus and St. Louis Encephalitis. As an example, its biology and
description is described in more detail in the following section.

Culexpipiens, the "Northern house mosquito", goes through four separate and distinct stages of its life
cycle: Egg, Larva, Pupa, and Adult. Each of these stages can be easily recognized by its special
appearance.
Egg: Eggs are laid on~ at a time and they float on the surface of the water stuck together in rafts of a
hundred or more eggs. Culex females lay their eggs on water that is high in organic material and
stagnant. The water may be in tin cans, bah'els, horse troughs, ornamental ponds, swimming pools,
puddles, creeks, ditches, or marshy areas. Mosquitoes prefer water sheltered from the wind by grass
and weeds. Most eggs hatch into larvae within 24 hours at 20-25° C find up to several days fi.cooler
temperatures are prevalent. The eggs are not resistant to cold or desiccation. Most eggs are laid in
early May but egg-laying continues until fall.
Larva:The larvae live in the water and come to the surface to breathe. They shed (moult) their skin
four times between each instar, growing larger after each moulting. The larvae feed on
micro-organisms and organic matter in the water. On the fourth moult, the larva changes into a pupa.
Larval development is completed in approximately 60, 40 and 10 days at 10°, 15° and 25° respectively.
Identifying Larvae:
ln.qmr Characteristics
First have a ridge on the upper surface of head, no ventral bm~h on the anal se~m-nent
Second one hair tuft on each side of the metathorax
Third two hair tuffs on the metathorax

Pupa: The Pupal stage is a r~sting, non-feeding stage. This is the time the mosquito turns into i
adult. The t~/pfil stage'takes about 1-4 days in spring and 2-3 days in smmner before the adult is ful

Adult: The newly merged adult rests on the surface of the water for a short time to allow itself to dry'and
its body parts to harden. The wings have to spread out and dry properly before it can fly. Culex mosquitc
usually lay their eggs at night. A mosquito may lay a faf/of eggs every third night during its life span. T
preferred host of Culexpipiens are birds. Most birds are bitten during the roosting time in trees.

4.3 Source Reduction: Eliminating Mosquito Breeding Sites
Mosquito populations can be reduced preventively and often significantly bY reducing the
amount of standing Water available for breeding. This preventive action is important since the
Culex species, the commonest vectors of WNV, tend to breed in natural or artificial "containers"
of standing water. Examples of source reduction actions are:
01.7
Use of a geographic information system (GIS), geographic positioning system (GPS) or other
mapping tools - available through Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR), Ministry of
Municipal Affairs and Housing, or local Conservation Authorities - to determine permanent
and temporary standing water sites that could be potential mosquito breeding areas. In sOme
eases, improving drainage, filling in depressions, or regrading, can eliminate these sites.
Changes to wetlands will require permission from lVlNR and Conservation Authorities.
Old tires lyingin yards can be siguificaut breeding sites for mosquitoes. Water collects inside
the tires and creates a perfect breeding site for some female m. osquito species to lay their
eggs. 'Wire drives" can be sponsored at the local level in order to encourage citizens to bring
in old tires for recycling.
· Flush storm drains, Catch basins and drainage ditches at least once per week or after a light
rainfall to remove stagnant water.
Monitor sewer lagoons or retention ponds to ensure they ar~ not breeding mosquitoes.
Initiate door-to-door promotion of mosquito breeding source reduction to industrial,
commercial, recreational and residential property owners.
Adopt municipal "show by example" activities to encourage source reduction and promote
these activities at shopping malls, schools, community centres, etc.
Promote mosquito breeding site reduction campaigns through the insertion of fact sheets in
with taxation or hydro bills
Presentations/displays at retail garden outlets, senior centres, and gardening Clubs in order to
increase awareness of WNV among more vulnerable members of s°eiety (e.g., the elderly).
Enact bylaws to require mosquito breeding site and source elirni'aation or reduction;
Construct and maintain ditches to improve drainage of water and contain run-offs.

As the summer advances, monitOr sites of temporary water collection (such as depressed
grassy l_o__ca.tions, Poorly drained properties and other water-retaining sm~ctures) for larvae of
summer Aed~ and Culex 24 to 35 hours after a heavy rainfall, through mid-sunm~er to fall.
Homeowners, and commercial, industrial and r~creational property owners, :may also be advised
to eliminate actual or potential breeding sites on their own properties; for example:
· Children's tire swings can be a breeding site. It is easy to eliminate stagnant water that
accumulates in tire swings and that provides a breeding site for mesquite,es by puncturing a
hole in the bottom of the t/re so that rain water may drain out.
· It is important to keep grass cut on a regular basis along with trimming s]~rubs and bushes
throughout the summer. These are areas where adult mosquitoes like to l~dde during the day
when they are not biting. They prefer shaded and moist areas.
Fish ponds can be stocked with Koi or other mosquito eating fish (e.g., Gambusia affinis).
AeratOrs, the removal of excess vegetation and proper construction will dissuade mosquitoes.
Remove or fill in the pond if it is no longer wanted.
· Keep swimming pools, spas and hot tubs chlorinated, and if not in use tif~tly cover and keep
rain water from accumulating on the cover.
· Change birdbath water frequently, at least once a week.
Containers, buckets, pots, barrels, pans, cans, wheel barrows, etc., should be emptied,
inverted, punched to creaie drainage holes, disposed of, or covered, to prevent mosquito
entrance.
· Store small boats and canoes upside down, cover large boats to prevent accumulation of
water, keep drains open. Ensure covers do not accumulate water.
· Construct sumps so that water does not: stand or semen to prevent mosqU:[to entrance.
Store tires inside a garage or shed, cover to prevent water from accumulating or dispose of
them through recycling programs.
Tree holes are ideal breeding sites for certain mosquito species. Drain or fill them, or remove
limb or tree.
Plastic covers on lawn chairs and other outdoor equipment should be drained weekly to
Release Date: April 3, 2001 89 Ontar/o Minirtry of Health and Long-tern, Care 21
remove accumulation of rain or sprinkler water.
· Eaves troughs and rain gutters should be k~t clean to allow proper drainage and to ensure
that water does not stand.
· Shaded fiat rooftops should be propa'ly drained to ensure that standing water is eliminated.

4.4 Personal Protective Measures against Mosquitoes
It is not neceSsary to limit any outdoor activities unless there is evidence of mosquito-borne
disease. However, the public can and should try to reduce the risk of mosquito bites. In addition
to reducing stagnant water, screens should be installed and kept in good repair on windows and
doors of homes-and commercial buildings.
If West Nile Virus is foUnd in a community, residents may be advised to::
~inimiT. e time spent outdoors between dusk and dawn when most mosquitoes are most
active.
Wear shoes, socks, long pants, and a long-sleeved shirt when outdoor,,~ for long periods of
time, or when mosquitoes are most active. Clothing should be light colored and made of
tightly woven materials that keep mosquitoes away from the skin. The use of mesh "bug
jackets" or ''bug hats" is recommended.
Use mosquito netting when sleeping outdoors or in an unscreened structure and to protect
small babies when outdoors.
Consider the use of mosquito repellents, according to directions, when. it is necessary to be
outdoors:
· Repellents should be applied only to exposed skin and/or clothing (as directed on the
product label). Do not use under clothing.
· Never use repellen.ts over cuts, wounds, or irritated skin.
· Do not apply to eyes and mouth, and apply sparingly around ears. When using sprays
do not spray directly onto face; spray on hands first and then apply to face.
· Do not allow children to handle these products, and do not apply to children's hands.
When using on children, apply to your own hands and then put it on the child.
· Do not spray in 'enelosed areas. Avoid breathing a repellent spry;y, and do not use it
near food.
· Use just enough repellent to cover exposed skin and/or clothing. Heavy application
and saturation is unnecessary for effectiveness; if biting insects do not respond to a thin
film of repellent, apply a bit more.
· After returning indoors, wash treated skin with soap and water o1: bathe. This is
particularly important when repellents are used repeatedly in a day or on consecutive days.
Also,. wash lxeated clothing before wearing it again.

West Nile ~firu~: Surveillance and Pr~ention in Ontario, 2001
Only insect repellents registered under the Canada's Pest Control Products Act should be used.
Non-registered products (e.g., citronella candles, citronella plants, electronic insect zappers, and
other magnetic devices) are not as effective as registered products in preventing mosquito bites.
Appendix 5 contains more detailed but practical information fi.om Health Canada on the safe and
effective use of personal insect repellents.
4.5 PUblic Education on West Nile Virus
"Public education" here refers to the composite strategy of activities designed to raise awareness
and communicate accurate, timely, and useful information and advice to the public - in this
context, about West Nile Virus and prevention measures to reduce the risk of acq~g the virus
and subsequent illness. In addition to the'general public, aCommunication strategy may identify
other "stakeholders"- groups and organizations to whom informational messages should also be
targeted. The methods for delivering public/stakeholder education include the posting of Web-
based "fact sheets" and advisories, distributing printed materials, giving presentations to
community groups, contacting the news media, making public service announcements, setting up
a telephone "hot line", and so on.
The nature of the expected "audience" also influences the content of the educational "products".
Basic information about the virus, how it is transmitted and what kind of illness can it cause -
would be needed for the general public and the news media. Explaining that WNV is transmitted
only by mosquitoes will allay any misconceptions that the vires can be spread by person-to-
person, bird-to-person, or mammal-to-person.
Physicians and other health care providers would want to more details about the clinical
presentation and course of WNV illness (encephalitis, meningitis) and who is at greater risk (the
elderly and immunocompromised). Similarly, veterinarians and animal care providers need to
know what animals are at'risk of infection and the clinical presentation. Community and
professional groups concerned with the environment, wildlife and public health would be
interested in the epidemiology of WNV (see Section 2.0 of this document) and its transmission
cycle in nature.
The public and other Stakeholders should also receive basic information about the surveillance
activities being undertaken to detect and,monitor the emergence of WNV. The public can be
encouraged to report sightings of dead birds to their local public health department. Bird-
watching societies can be informed about the focus on dead Corvids. Health care providers,
especially those in acute care hospitals, will be informed about the human surveillance plan and

West Nile lr~rus: Surveillance and Prevention in Ontario, 2001
reminded to report cases of encephalitis; or meningitis that m~t the susp~,~ct case definition for
WNV and which are reportable diseases in Ontario anyway. The 2001 Surveillance Plan for
Ontario has been described in Sections .3.0-3.5 of this document.
In terms of prevention measures,' the general public may be advised about measures for personal
protection against biting mosquitoes, including the application of approved insect repellent (as
described in Sections 4.5 of this document). Outdoor recreational and tom'ism groups and senior
citizens' r&sidences may be targeted for advice on personal protective measures. Parents,
schools and day cares need information on the use of DEET-containing repellent on children.
Public and stakeholder education is needed to encourage "source reducticm": eliminating major
sites of standing water on private properties (residential or commercial) and on public properties
(e.g., wetlands, ditches, ponds, reservoirs, street catch baSins, sewage tre~[tment facilities, etc.).
(See Section 4.4.) The importance of source reduction increases when mosquito breeding sites
have been identified close to human conurbations and ,especially when West Nile Virus has been
detected in the local area. Source reduction at the local/regional level may involve the municipal
departments of Public Works or Parks and Recreation, local Conservation Authorities, and the
property owners themselves.
Effective source reduction can decrease the need for chemical mosquito abatement or control -
i.e., the use of approved insecticides against mosquito larvae and adults, termed "larviciding"
· and "adulticiding", respectively. Should. "mosquitocide" still be indicateX, l, the amount required
can be lessened by preventive source reduction.
In the event that insecticide still needs to be applied in order to reduce the risk of WNV
transmission by mosquitoes, public and stakeholder education will be ne,/led to explain the facts
about the pesticide: its toxicology and the risks of any adverse effects on human health (e.g.,
persons with asthma or allergies) or on the ecosystem, the latter including "non-target species"
such as other insects (e.g., bees raised commercially for honey), fishes, artd birds. The public and
other stakeholders (e.g., environmental groups, commercial and occupational groups) would
likely want to know the hulnan health and ecosystem risks of the pesticide:, weighed against the
threat of WNV disease, as well as the "logistics" of how the larvicide or aJ:lulticide will be
applied (when, where, by whom and by what means).

Prior to assuming responsibility for the land ambulance program it was identified that
some of the existing ambulance stations would likely need to be replaced. However,
there was insufficient time to complete detailed assessments and as a result we had most

of the lease properties assigned to the Region.
the chart above.
The lease expiration dates are indicated in'
It should also be pointed out that the ambulance service in Whitby was without a station
at the time of assumption, as the province had failed to assist the operator in finding
replacement accommodations and they were required to vacate due to the sale of the
property.
Since assumption we have had technical audits conducted by Barry- Bryan Associates on
each of the buildings. Based on these audits and service response requi[rements it has
been identified that the following ambulance stations need to be replaced in the
subsequent order of priority: ,
1. Oshawa South - 500 Wentworth Street East, Unit 16
2. Picketing - 625 Kingston Road West
3. Ajax - 580 Harwood Avenue Sou.th
4. Whitby - 100 Taunton Road East
Ambulance stations must be located as closely as possible to the call density areas for
ambulance demand. This'is essential if we are to comply with the legislated response
time standards imposed by the province. The facilities must also have eXcellent egress to
the major roadways without impediments such as heavy commercial truck traffic or level
raikoad crossings. This has been a significant issue in respect to the potential facilities
we have reviewed to date.
Options:
There are three basic options to be pursued:
1. Find existing facilities' for lease that can be
renovated for ambulance use.
2. Have facilities constructed for lease back.
3. Have facilities constructed to own.
Ambulance stations have many specific needs and requirements that ar{;
not usually available in normal commercial space. This results in
extensive facility renovations being required to accommodate the
ambulance vehicles and staff. For example, when we were considering
the potential of leasing space at the old Canadian Tire on Edgehill in
Whitby, we were advised by the landlord that the renovations would be in
excess if $500,000. to meet the specifications required for an ambulance
station.
We have requested that Facilities Management aggressively pursue lease
space in the geographic areas identified for replacement ambulance
stations, but have been unsuccessful in finding suitable 'space.
109
Since most ambulance stations will remain in operation for as long as
twenty years it may be more reasonable to pursue the build to lease or
build to own options. This still requires the acquisition of land within the
designated geographic area and we have requested that Facilities
Management identify any regional or municipal property that may be
available. We have also been in contact with the province in respect to
their property adjacent to the Land Registry offices on Rossland Road, as
this would be an excellent location for the Whitby ambulance station.
Requirements:
Durham EMS requires 4 new or replacement ambulance stations., Three of
these (Oshawa South, Picketing and Ajax) would be virtually identical and
would need to meet the requirements and specifications of a 2 bay garage
2 vehicles deep with attached crew quarters and equipment storage
facilities.
The station ih Whitby needs to be constructed to meet the normal -
ambulance station requirements as well as the central operational and
management/administrative requirements of the EMS division. This
facility will house the following:
The Whitby ambulance service
The Durham EMS management/administration team
· The Durham Central Ambulance Communications Centre
· Central supplies and storage
· Central vehicle and equipment storage
· Meeting/conference room
· Training facility
Currently the management administration team is primarily in two
different locations, Whitby and Oshawa. As well, some administration
work is being done out of the Beaverton station. It is essential to the
efficiency and control of the program that these staff be brought together
as soon as possible.
The central vehicle, equipment and supplies is also of significant priority
to ensure rapid distribution to the stations to ensure ambulance service
remains available at all times. Though some spare ambulance will be
situated in other stations for immediate use they need to be replaced as
quickly as possible when a vehicle is out of service to ensure the
maintenance of reserve capacity. This is best achieved by having both the
human and operational resources at the s. ame location. We are currently
leasing space for winter storage of vehicles as all stations are at maximum
capacity.
025
110
026
There is also an extensive ongoing l~aining requirement, some of which is
mandated by the province. The current-number of hours for required.
training i~-~tj hours for each Primary Care Paramedic and 80 hours fc,r
each Advanced Care Paramedic. This does not include training that is
identified through the quality assurance program., Though sharing training
facilities with other agencies will be pursued the availability of facilities
that will be used several times a week by EMS staffwill require
centralized on site training space. This will allow for the routine
scheduling of staff to the training facility as part of their normal rotation.
The management team meets at least twice weekly and it makes sense to
have a separate meeting/boardroom for these meetings. This wo,uld al!low
the training room to remain configured for the paramedic training
workstations. Both the training room and meeting/boardroom would be
available to other departments.
Sample floor plans for the generic ambulance stations and the central
Whitby combined station are available for review on request.
Cost Estimates:
Based on the recommendations from. Facilities Management the projected
cost of the stations would be as follows:
· Oshawa South = $ 980,000. Standard Station design.
· Ajax = $ 9'80,000. Standard Station design.
· Pickering = $ 9'80,000. Standard Station design.
· Whitby = $ 3,300,000. H.Q. + Standard Station.
$6.2~ Total
The province is committed to fund 51)% of station lease costs but has yet
to confirm whether they would fund .50% of construction costs.
We are currently conducting searches of the service areas for each of the
stations-and geographic search areas Mve been provided to Works for this
purpose. I have attached copies for your review.

-- Part-of Block M-l, Plan M-1059, Pickering, designated as Part 1,
Plan 40R-15823
- File: W2304.404
When Plan M-1059 was registered, a reserve block was placed along a portion of the
south-easterly boundary of the Plan. This reserve was needed by the City to ensure that
the development of lands lying adjacent to this plan of subdivision were done in an
orderly manner.
The Owner herein has applied through Land Division Application LD 75/01, to sever a
portion of those lands lying outside Plan M-1059 into 2 lots (Part of Lot 6, Registrar's
Compiled Plan 1041) and requires the reserve fronting the newly created lot on Parkside
Drive to be lifted to provide legal access.
As the Owner herein has complied with all of the other conditions of LD 75/01, it is now
appropriate to lift the reserve, thereby permitting legal access to the newly created lot.
Attached hereto is a location map and a draft by-law, enactment of which will lift the 0.3
metre reserve thus permitting legal access to the adjacent lands. This by-law is in the
form usually used in such cases and is attached for the consideration of City Council at its
meeting scheduled for May 22, 2001.

Past and Present Initiatives on the Oak Ridees Morain.~,
The TRCA's 1989 Greenspace Strategy for the Greater Toronto region
proposed that special attention be given to conserving the headwaters in the Oak
ridges Moraine complex. The strategy proposed: resource conservation
guidelines for development proposals; a selective land acquisition program; a
stewardship initiative with private landowners; research into land use and
resource management; increased regulatory control by extending ilood and fill
line mapping; establishing a regional trail system; promoting a provincial policy;
and establishing a public awareness program.
In October 1989, the Greater Toronto Area Greenland Strategy (Kantar
Report) noted that without one definition for the Moraine, clear obiectives and a
long term implementation strategy, the significance and sensitivity c~fthe Moraine
would not be taken into consideration in the land use planning process.
IffI990, the Second interim report, "Watershed", by the Royal Commission on
the Future of the Toronto Waterfi:ont also urged the Province to t~brm a special
planning group to study and implement guidelines for the Moraine. The Kanter
and Watershed reports provided the stimulus for the Province to announce the
planning study of the Moraine and a declaration of Provincial Interest in the Oak
Ridges Moraine Area in the GTA in 1991.
In 1991, the Province released a set of Implementation Guidelines to protect
significant feature and control development of the ORM in the GTA. These
guidelines were meant to be interim, while a two-year planning study developed a
long strategy for the GTA portion of the Moraine. Between 1991 and 1994,
fifteen background studies were completed, representing the most comprehensive
database of the natural environment, surface and groundwater systems and
resource uses on the Moraine. The final draft of the Oak Ridges Moraine
Strategy was submitted to the Province for finalization in 1995. N!o action has
been taken to finalize the Strategy, to clarify the 1991 Interim Guidelines or to
formalize the 1991 declaration of Provincial interest for the Oak Ridges Moraine.
In 1999, the three Regions, Durham, Peel and York, release a background paper
entitled "The Oak Ridges Moraine - Towards a Long Term Strategy". The
report provided a number of poliCy options for the Oak Ridges Moraine and
sought to engage the Province in discussion aimed at preparing a co-ordinated
strategy for Moraine in the Greater Toronto Area. The report was endorsed by the
Council of the three Regions and. had been widely circulated for re'~riew. The City
of Pickering received a copy for its review.
Section 10.13 of the Pickering Official Plan recognizes that the ()ak Ridges
Moraine provides wide rage of environmental functions critical to the
maintenance of healthy water resources and natural heritage values in the City and
beyond. Other polices pertaining to the Moraine include: designating the Oak
Ridges Moraine on Schedule III, co-operating with the Region in preparing an
Oak Ridges Moraine study; ensuring that activities within or adjacent to the
Moraine are consistent with the Oak Ridges Moraine Implementation Guidelines;
and require, where appropriate, the recommendations of an Environmental Report
to be implemented.
April 2001, the Federal Government announced its intention to protect a total of
approximately 3,051 hectares (7,562 acres) of the federally owned Picketing
Airport lands, consisting of approximately 2,251 hectares (5,562 acres) falling on
the Oak Ridges Moraine, and other 800 hectares (2,000 acres) along the western
boundary referred to as the alternate Rouge Park North corridor. ~Ilae Minister of
Transport indicated that over the next 12 mon~,hs, community and environmental
groups, as well as federal and provincial agencies, would be consulted to develop
a strategy it ensure that the subject lands are protected in perpetuity as green
space. Further details are to be announced.

o
May 2001, the three Regions released a second report entitled '°Fhe Oak Ridges
Moraine: Proposal for the Protection and Management of a Unique
Landscape'. The Report proposes a symposium and a series of public meetings
in June 2001 to diScuss the strategic directions outlined in the report.
