DETARS OF APPLiCAT10N:
Tha site currently operates as a waste transfer and processing fecility for solid non•hazardous
industriel, commercial, institutional and domestic waste. Miller haa applied to the Ministry of Ihe
Enviromnent to expend its operations in two phases. Phase I includes expansion of the curcent
weste trensfer facility, anhancement of the meterial recycling facility, and the establishment of a
household hazardous waste depot. Phase 2 includes the development of a composting facility, an
outdoor construction and demolition receiving/processing area, and an outdaor wood waste
receiving/processing area.
The curtent MOE Certificate of Approval establishes restrictions to tha type and amount of waste
permitted at a waste handling facility. Under Phase 1, the meximum volume of material permitted
to be received daily would increase from 299 to 1,020 tonnes/day, and on•site storaga would
increase from 780 to I,185 tonnes at any given time. If Phase 2 is fully implemented as proposed
(Phase I and 2 combined), these numbers increase to 1,410 tonnes/day and 12, 328 tonnes
respectively.
PLANNING COMMENTS:
The Director of Plenning supports the Phase 1 expansion subject to a variety of conditions that
are o�itlined in tha recommendation. Thc primary condition is that Miller provide the Town with
funding to retain an independent environmental cansullant to undertake ongoing monitoring of thc
waste management operation, as recommended by thc Town's peer reviewer.
With respect to the Phese 2 expansion, ihere does not appcar to be cnough information supplied
in the proposal to suppor: its approval.
PUBLIC WORKS COMMENTS:
The Director of Public Works also support the Phase I expansion but notes that there nre a
numbcr of issues that must be addressed with respect to Phase 2. The issucs that must ba
addressed are Stormwater Management and Roeds, Traf£c, Nousehold Hazardous Waste, Hours
of Operetion, Daily Waste receipts for Solid Waste and ComposUOrganics, Wood, Construction
& Demolition. These issues are reflected in the above recommendation.
FIRE COMMENTS:
Tha Acting Fire Chief has no objection to this application but notes that more information will be
needed to comment on Phase 2 of the expansion.

ex(sting wastc management facil(ty at ihe Sile, dated August 27, 1997 as weq as an
amendment dnted July 2, 1998,
BACKGROUND
The Site is curronlly operated for the lransfer and processing of solid non-hazardous
industrial, comnurcial, instilulional and domesQc wasles. In order to mcet,growing
demand in ihe area, Miller 1s proposing lo expand the faciliry and enhance the operation
inro an (megrated waste/material management faciliry.
The development of the proposed intcgraled sitc has been diviJed into two phases.
Phase l o[ Ihe development is to include expans(on of the current waste transfer
facillty, construction of a maintenance garage, enhancament of lhe material recycling
tacllity ("MRF"), expansion of oftice and sta(f facilitios, enhancement of the public
waste drap off area and establislunent of a huusehold hazardous waste ("HHW") dcpot.
PBase 2 of the developmcnt (s to include development of a composling facility ("CF"),
establisl�n�ent of an outdoor conslruction and demolition ("C&D") waste
receiving/processing area and estabiishment of an outdoar wooct waste receiving/
processing facility.
As outlincd in thair covering letter to the appiication, GLL has acknowledged that while
the application ts for all companents of the integrated site, the appiication does not
include thc dctailed design submissions for the CF and HHW depot. GLL has sta�ed
that the prefcrred HHW approach would be detailed in Januury 1999, but that the
details on lhe CF would be provided as Phase 2 of tlu development proceeds.
In die application, GLL has provlded the typical brcakdown of daily material which is
to bc rcceived at Ihc expanded facility. Thc proposed breakdown is as follows:
Solid Wnsle and Proccss Resiauals gpp
Recyclnbics ZZ�
Organics 160
Wo°d 115
TOTAL � 1,410
GLL has stated that the maximum waste flow that is to pass tluough the trassfer facility
for flnai dtsposal off-Site is 800 tonnes per day, Under the current C-of-A, the
permflted amount of waste leaving the Site, wh(ch includes res(duai waste Crom the
proccssing operation plus waste aristng from the transfer operation, is 299 tonnes per

Gom Ihe processing operation that can leave Ihe Siie on a dally bas(s to 199 lonnes per
day. This waste from the prceessing opetation is to be included (n Ihe Site's overall
o(FSile wasie disposal limit of 299 tannes per day.
Under lhe curre�t C-of-A, Ihe Site is perm(ited to have a toial of 780 tonnes of
unprocessed, processeJ, and res(dual material stored on•Slte at any time, 'fhe
folluwing tabie summarius the amount of non•processed and processed waste and
materials that GLL has estimated for �he Sitc in �he amendment application.

W�d 575 (500% of daily in�ake) included in nun-processed
C&D Recycling 575 (50096 of daily intake) inciuded in non•processed
Bazcd on these amounts, Ihe total amount of non•processed and processed material
which could be present on Site once Ihe facility is in fuli operation is 12,327.9 lonnes,
of which approximately 78% would be curing compost material, When comparing only
tlu current type of waste/material �hat is permitted to tx present at �he Site (i.e.,
Uansfer waste material and recyciables), ihe proposed amount of this type of material
would bc t, I85 tonnes, compared to the currcnt C-of-A's Iimlt of 780 tonnes.
GEN�RAL CO1VII1-IENTS ON APPLICATION
Bucd on DEAK's review of the application, il is DEAK's opinfnn that averall, the
proposed pian for thc Site has becn reasanably wetl outlined. However, 1he details
concarning some aspects of the proposed facility (e.g., the design of the CF and the
HHW depot) are not included. GLL has acknowledged that the appiication document (s
intended lo meet all Onlario Ministry of the Environment ("MOE") information
requests for a Provisional C-af-A, subject to submission of further des(gn delails for the
CF and HHW depot.
In addition to �he outsmnding design details identified for Qu CF and NHW depot, it is
BEAK's opinion that the (nformation concerning the design end operallon of the
proposed wood waste and C&D debris recycling processes are not sutficiently detailed
in Uie application. Neither of these two proposed operations appear to have been
discussed in detail within the appiicallon. It is BEAK's opinion that lnfonnatian should

havc becn incluJed in the applicaiion to explain the construclion details for Ihe arca
proposcd to accommalate these two activit(es, stormwater control/sampling meazures
for tliis oren af 1he 5itc, Eugitive emisslons monitoring/suppression (e.g., dust) to
protect workers and surrounding properdes and moniloring for unsuflable matedals
(e.g., asbestos). lt is BEAK's opinlon that details concerning Ihese and other aspccts of
Uu proposed wood and C&D operations need lo be specified in order to evaluate tlie
potentinl for environmemal impacts from thcse ncdvities.
Rnother nspect of the application which has been omitled is a decommissioning plan for
the Site. This is identified as a requirement by ihe MOE for C-af-A applications of this
nature. In the appiication, it appears that �he positiun laken by GLL and Miller is thal
since the facil(�y is to serve the community for several years, submission of a
decommissioning plan is premature. They have indicated ihat in the event that the
faci�ity must be closed, a decommissioning plan consisient with MOE requirements
would be dcvelopcd and carried out. It is �EAK's opinion that if the MOE das not
require a decammissioning plan, I�aving Uie applicalion recognize the need for a
dccommissioning plan consistent with ASOG rcqufrements, should be sufficient at this
tlme.
(n rcgards to the financial assurance ("FA") outlincd in the application, it is IIEAK's
opinion Uiat Ihe amount of money proposed is inadequate. The FA calculated by GLL
and Miller is bascd on waste/material volumcs of 450 tonncs for waste and 355 tonnes
of balcJ or separated recyclai�les (No1e: Uiay have acknowlcdged that Nrther FA would
be provided upon MOE acceplance of the detailed CF and HHW depot and upon
commenccment of the C&D and wood waste receipts). GLL utilized a cost of S75 per
tonne Cor the Iraiufer and disposal of waste material and SS per ionne for an overall
managemcnt fee. Consequcntiy, � total of 534,000.00 is bein� offered as FA for Aic
Pl�ase ( aspecls of tlie Site expansion.
The waslc and recyclable lotals u�ilized by GLL appear 10 br, comprised of ihc amount
of unptoccssed waste estimated by GLL to be prescnt on Ihe Site at any one time and
U�e maximum amount of processed recyclable material estimated lo be stored an A�e
Site at any one time. Thcse totals do not include the amount of processed waste which
GLL estimated to be on ihe Site at any one tlme (i.e., 210 lonnes) or the amount of
unprocesscd recyclables estimated lo be on the Site at any one timc (i.e., 220 tonnes).
[f liiese tolals are faclored (nto GLL's equatian, addilional FA of 517,900,00 would
neeJ to be provided. In addition, ihe MOE requires that FA must be suflicient to
provide for the analysis, Iransponation, site clean•up, monitoring and d(sposal of all
wastes, Consequently, it is BGAK's opinion that Ihe formula utillzed to calculate t1u
FA in llie application is inadequate. In Ihe existing C-of-A, the FA is set at
SS0,000,00. Given Ihat Uds application is an expansion to the existing facillty, it is
BEAK's opinion ihal the FA should at least be equal to, or greater �han, the current FA
for the applicable waste/recyclable material operations, Funhermore, allhough the

environntenlal conditian of Ihe Site area are limited. However, BEAK recommenJs
diet informalion conarning the specificalions for the paved storage areas (e.g., nature
and thickness of paving materiap be provided In order to evaluate the potentlal
limitations of the pavem�nt materiai. Procedures should aiso be impiemonted al the
Site to evaluate the integrity aF thc.se paved surfaces on a regular basis.
As part of the application, data un the quality of leachate from a compost curing pfle at
enolher Miilor facility in Lunenberg, Nova 5cotia was provided, Based un the da�a,
GLL concluded that the leachate met ihe saniiary sewer use limits for the Region of
Durham (ihe "Region"), wilh the exceptian of one parameter (i.e., kjeldahl nitrogen).
Based on Ihe information contained in Ihe application, it appears that the (eachate from
the proposed compost curing pile at the Site is to be direcled to two ponds, Gom which
it will be discharged to the sanitary sewer, with an oplion to discharge to Uie stortn
sewer if Provincial Waler Quality Objcctives ("PWQO") are met. Once tlu compost is
cuted, it is to then be moved !o a second pad area for storage before shipping. Runo(f
Gom this storage area is to be directed to Ihe welland. From d�e wetland, Ihe waler
Oows to die slortn sewer system.
Bascd on the leachate quality data provided In the application, it appears that there ere
uveral parameters whlch excced the PWQO as weli as the Region's stortn scwor by-
law ;imits. Whfle this is data representative of a highly concentrated leachate sampie, it
�ues indicale that the compost leachate can contain elevated parametcrs of
environmental concem (e.g„ cadmium, copper, lead, mercury and zinc). Given this, it
is BEAK's opinion that the water quality monitoring program for lhe ponds end wetland
should bc fairly extensive, particularly in the early slages of operation, and options
should be considcrcJ prior io development of Uu CF in the event that thc nmoff from
ihe wetland to the stonn sewer system cxcceds ihe applicable criteria. Furthermore, as
GLL and Miiler wcre proviJing optionc for liners to the retention ponds !ar Uie runoff
fram U�e compost curing area, BEAK recommends U�at the least pertncable lincr opt(on
should be the preferred option, particularly since groundwater at the Site Is relatively
shallow.
Dascd on ihe information provided in the application, ihere is little detail on Ihe design
oF tlie wood waste and C&D debds rccycling areas. G(ven the namrc of ihe materials
that would be managcd fn lhese areas, thcre is the potential for (mpact to the quallty of
surfacc water runo(f. DEAK recommcnds tha� delails be obtained on tlu design for
thesc areas and Ihe proposed material management system. This should include
informalion conceming the mcasures which will be in-place to monitar runoff water
quality.
In order to monitor groundwater quality at the Site, a series of groundwater monitoring
wells have been instalied end are proposed to be sampled on a scmf-annual bas(s for the
first three years alter which tlu monitaring program will be re-evaluated. aLL has

included a list ol' several organic and inorganic parameters they propose to analyze in
the groundwater sampics. One parameter af note not included on the list af proposed
chemicals Is mercury. Given that the compost leachate sample hed an elevated mercury
cancenication, UEAK recommends that mercury be inciudeJ In their Ust ot parameters.
PHASC 1 AND 2 DCVGLOPMENT SGQ(JENCE
Whcn issuing C•oF•As for wastc management systems, the MOE seems to only issue
"Pruvisional" C-of-As. Based on lhe application presented by GLL and Miller, it is
BEAK's opinion tliat Ihe C•oFA which would be issued by the MOE could only be for
those operations which have su(ficient design/management details incorporated into the
application. Consequently, the CF and HEiW depot, as well as, in BEAK's apinion,
�he wood waste and C&D debris recycling operation, would likely not be approved,
unlcss under condition, until the delails concerning the design far these operations is
provided. Exclusive of olher permiuing requirements (e.g., municipal), it is BEAK's
op(nion that Miller could proceed with devclopment of both phases; however, until Ihe
Pi�ase 2 operations are included on the C•of-A, they would not bc in a position to begin
Ihesc operations. Consequently, a further amendment would be required once th(s
additional documemation is forwarded lo ihe MOE.
COMPOSTING T�CHNOLOGY
BEAK is not familiar with ihe composting technology propased for use at the Site by
Miiler, According lo their application, it appears that Miller holds the distribution
rights for the EBARA composting lechnology and that the system is currently in use in
Lunenberg, Nova 5cotia and another is being commissioned in Halifax. In order to
obtain same insight into ihe success o[ the technology, BEAK conlacted Mr. Pierre
Brow, thc Town Engincer wid� thc Town of Lunenberg. According lo Mr. Drow, Uu
EBARA composling facilily was commissioned in the summer oF 1994 and has been
aperating ever since this tiroe. He informed UEAK lhat in his opinlon, the system has
been work(ng well. Tlu community it serves is approximately 40,000 in s(ze and that
the system is operating at about 5090 capaclty processing approximately 6,000 tonnes of
compost a year. He indicated to �EAK that the only issue they have encountered is
that tlu vontilation system capacity was slightly underestimated, However, he
attributcd this to the (act that they process a high percentage of cardboard which
requires Iliat a greater volume of water be added. Consequenlly, higher humidiry levels
are generated within tiuir composling building. This has apparently resulted in more
corrosion on Ihe steel stnicture. He informed BEAK that it was his opin3on ihat if Utere
was higher air eachange rate in-place or if the building was constructed with tiit•up
concrcte panels, this issue could be addresscd.
Given the comments BEAK obtaiued from Lunenberg's Town Engineer, (t eppears that
the EBAItA composting technalogy appears to be effect(ve and that there have been no

signifcant environmentel concerns ident(fied with their faciUty. It is BEAK'x opinion
that if the system proposed for the Slte is installed and monitored In accordance to the
MOE's applicable guidelines tor composting faciiltfes, �he potential for aignlficant
environmental conarns with its operation are low.
GENERAL
BEAK recommends that in whatever approval the Town issues ta Miiler, ihe 7'own
include a condition that Ihey be allowed to undertake, or retain a consultant to

services. Tlic Miller (3roup wa� �sla61is6ed in 1917 and havc becn working (n Durham Region �ince lhe

Miller Weste Systems 6u awued end opet�ted the 1220 Squires Beach Road waste manngement facility
since 1997. 7'his application con�a p�bposed expansion of thls facility to incrcase lomogc capacity,
expand processing capabilities and iacrease,the waste management services available lo Durham

�
' Millcr Waste hu idenlified a nad for enhanced wasle lransfer and processing capacity in the Region of
Durham. Several Cactan aze contributing ta this naJ, incluciing:�
a) closure of Durham'a Brock West Landfill� d�anl cipated closure of Keele
Velley Landfill in Ihc Town of Vaughan; .
b) lack of integraled waste management facililia capable ot aspanding to wasle
managemcnt necds for the fmurc; 1 �
c) lack oF processing facilitles to e(ficiently mect Regional needs'anJ nssist in
roeeting the Proviucial target of 50% diversion Gom landfill by ?000; �
d) absence of appropriale facilitiee lo process organic material, parUculatly kitchcn
organic wastc and IC&1 org�nic�, into useful compost product; und.'
e) insufticient facililics for residcntial drop off of waste, recyclables and
Houschold Elazardous Wastc.
[n additian lo these general faclon, Miller Waste has curtent long term contracls with Durham Regian lo
collect, process and transCcr residential waste. The curtcnt Squires Beach Road facility has insulficicnt
capacity to manage ihis service in an efficient and environmentally sowd manncr. (n panicular, the
htinlstry of Environment haa rccognizeJ that the curtent Certificale of Approval limits Miller Waste's
abilily to praperly manoge Ihe peaks of residential waste collecled a(ter a holiday period.
