FINANCIAL IMPUCATIONS: Ontnrio Power Gcnemtion has agreed to cover the cost af the City's Pecr Review Team lo an upset limit of 598,600 plus disbursements. Accordingly, there hnve becn no finnncial implications to Ihe Cily for the Peer Review Tcam's parlicipation in tlic environmentnl ossessment process, other than u E3,200 Council approved expenditure endy this ycar to revicw the Final Scope of Assessmcnt (ihis work was bcyond what OPG had agrccJ to fund). EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: This Report coNr.ius the stuff und Peer Revie��� Tcam comments anJ recommendations an ihe Environmentnl hsscssmenl Screcning Itcport, Volume 3: AJdendum, on ihe Retum to Service of PNGS "A". Volumc 3, ulong with Volumcs I und 2 rcicascd enrlicr Ihis ycur, mukc up thc final GA Scrcening Rcport for Ihis project. 7 he Revicw Tcam's comments un Volumes I unJ 2«•crc completed in June, and were fonvarded at thnl limc to thc CNSC us thc Cily's cnmments on thc dr�ll GA (scc Rcport to Council CAO 12-00, and Council Rcsolution NIOG/00, ilem 8). 'fhc Rcvicw Tcam's commcnts on Volumc 3 nrc uttachcd as Auuchment No. I lo Ihis Itc�rt. With respcct Io Volumc 3, Ihc Pccr Rc��icw T'eam noies Ihut Ihcrc il�rl`iliS lD hnvc bcen significnnt collubomlion bcl�sccn CNSC stulT and OPG in prcpnring thc JacumcnL Thcy also find that thc mnjority of responses in Volumc 3 arc inudcyualc or show paor Icvcls of understanding of basic scicntific informalion. 'I'his scvcrcly compromiscs thc validity of Volumc 3 nnd the entirc environmcmnl assessmcnt. Moreover, the Pccr Revicw'I'cam concludcs thot Volumc 3 fuils to odcyuately recognizc and respond to concems rcgurding lhe existence of significnnl dnta gaps in Ihe unJerstnnding of environmcnml conditions in and around PNGS. "fhc exisicncc of Jain gups undcrtnines the credibility of thc conclusion rcuchcd by CNSC staff Iha1 ihc restart of PNGS "A" is not likcly to cuuse significant advcrsc c�'ccls (Ihis conclusion may possibly bc corrcct, but it rnuy also possibly be wrong). This siluntion demonslrates thc nccd for n fully indcpcndcnt review of thc project. SIafP recommend that Council cndorse the Pcer Review Tcam's comments on Volume 3 nnd fonvard these comments to Ihe CNSC for consideration ut lhc December 14�h hcaring. ln addition, it is rccommcndcd thnt becnuse of concems respccting the objectivity af thc revicw by CNSC stnff, und lhe continued cxistence of significant data gups, Council ask the Commission lo rcquest the Pedcrnl Minister of Environment lo refcr thc projcct to u mcdiator or review pancl in accardunce wilh ihe Canadlun EnvJronmenlal �issessmenf Acf, Notwithsmnding ihese primary recommendations, in orJcr to protcct thc Ciry's inicrcst, staff has provided two nddilional rccommendutions for Council's considemtion. Pirst, thnt in the event thc Commission is inclincd to approvc ihc EA, that CNSC staff bc dircctcd to rcvicw und rcvisc thc planncd follow•up program as necessury, to cnsurc it addresses Ihc siQnificunt data gaps identificd by thc Ciry's Peer Revicw Tcum, and that thc rcviscd program bc approvcJ by thc City� of Pickcring prior to thc restarl of PNOS "A". And sccond, thnt stnfl' bc authoriud to begin negotiating a Community Ocnefits Agrccment with Onmrio 1'owcr Gcnemtion on a without prejudicc bnsis, O�$ ,; Report to Council CAO 14-00 Datc: Octobcr I I, 2000 Subject: Comments on �inal EA Scrcening Rcpon, Volume 3: Addendum I'agc 3 of'7 DACK6ROUND: The Environmental Assessmcnt Process The operntion of the PNGS "A" fncility has bern regulnted by thc Canndian Nucicaz Safcry Commission (fortnerly lhe Atomic Energy Control Bourd) since the four "A" reaclors bewme operationnl in the early 1970's. At the end of 1997, thc PNGS "A" reactors werc placed in a non-routine shutdown stntc. In 1999, OPG rcquested pertnission to retum the Pickering "A" reactors to service. Purt of the resmrt process involves the successful completian of n scrcening Ievel environmentul nssessmcnt under the Canadinn Environmenlul Assessmc�i� Acl. If the EA is approved, OPG will lhen necd to apply for nn appropriate opemting liccnse beforc bringing the PNGS "A" rcactors back to full powcr. Earlier this year, OPG and ils consultants (Golder Associates) preparcJ a two•volumc Draft Environmenlul Assessmenl (GA) Report, along �vith a number of othcr lechnicnl backgraund repods. Thesc documcnts werc rcicased in May for comment. Pollowing this, our I'ccr Rcvicw Tcam prcpared comments on thcse documents, and in 1une, thc Pecr Review Tcam's commcnts were endorscd by Council nnd fonvnrded to CNSC for wnsidemtion. Al the same timc, Council requcsted ihc f'edeml Minister of Gnvironment to rcfer thc project to a review pancl or mediator under the Canndi�m F.nvlrnnmenlnl Assesrmrru Acf, in orJer to address the concems raised by thc Pcer Rcview Tcum. 'fhe Pcdeml Minister did not make a decision on this refertai rcqucst. To complete the a5sessment proccss, in late August, CNSC stafl' rcleased a Volume 3: Addendum to includc rcvisions, crratu, aJJitions und upcl�ucs lo Volumes I and 2. Taken together, Volumes I, 2 and 3 make up the final IiA Srreening Rcport. It shoulJ be noted that CNSC stnfT hnve Ihc responsibility of preparing Ihe lin.d GA. I lowevcr, Volumcs I nnd 2 of the EA wcre prcparcd by OPG nnd ils consultants, «hilc only Volume 3 was prepared by CNSC smff (but with input from OPG, OP(i's consultants, nnd ulhcrs, including lhc Gcological Society of CanuJa nnd Nalural Rcsourccs Canada). Comments on thc finnl GA will Ix considcrcJ by thc Commission on Dcccmbcr 14'h nt u public hearing to be hcld in Pickcring. Pollowing thc hcuring, thc Commission will mnkc a decision. Undcr thc Cnnndinn C:nviramicNnl As.se,ssmenl Arf, lhc Cammission has thrcc moin choices: I. to acccpt lhc EA und allow thc projcct to procced lo thc liccnsing slugc; 2, to not uccept thc EA and nut ullow thc projcct to procced to the liccnsing stngc; or 3. to recommend to thc Pederal Minister of Ihc Environmcnt thut thc projcct bc rcferred to n review pancl or mcdiator. If refcrred, thc Fedeml Ministcr of the Environment hns thc nuthority to ncccpt thc rcqucst nnd initiate a pnnel review or medintion proce5s. The Minister can nlso refuse the rcqucst and nsk thc Commission to deal direcUy with Ihe concems. If the Commission accepts lhe GA, lhe decision is final. Any further uclion would relnte to conditions of approvnl nnd/or the subsequent licensing proccss. dy nccepting the EA, in cfTecl thc Commission would bc agrecing wilh the CNSC staff rccommendntion thnl thc projcct is not likcly to cnuse significant adversc environmcnlal effccts, taking inlo considcration thc proposed mitignlion measurcs and planned follow•up progrnm. If the EA is accepted, OPG expcct to be in n position to submit an applicalion for un opernting license for PNOS "A" enrly in 2001. Wilh no dclays in the issuancc of an opcmting liccnsing, it is OPa's intent to sturl onc PNGS "A" reactur by thc end of 2001. ' Report to Coudcil CAO 14•00 Datc: Octobcr I I, 2000 Subject: Comments on Finnl EA Screening Report, Volume 3: AdJendum ,, � n9 tabc4of7 CNSC Slaff Comments and Recommendafions The CNSC stafT repoA on the EA for the restnrt of PNGS "A" wus rcleased in September, und was presenled on October 5'" lo lhe Canadinn Nuclear Safcry Commission. At the October 5'" meeting, ihe Commission did not comment on ihe report, or nsk any questions of CNSC staff. All discussion of the matter was deCerted to the public hcaring in Pickering on Decembcr 14'", The following summarizes the position of CNSC staff. • An EA under the Canadinn Envlronmenral Assessmenl Act docs not represcnt the cnd of the environmenWl impact management process. An EA is a planning excrcise that ollen requires cureful follow-up to verify the predictions of environmental e(Tects und ta ensurc ef'fectiveness oF impact mitigation measures. This is why the devclopment of a follow•up program wns rcquircd as part of thc scope af assessment. Por the rcstart of PNGS "A", the subsequenl licensing and compliance process provides nn uppropriate framcwork in which to ensure a follow-up program is implemented. • The Screcning Report meeis nll of the rcquiremenis of CGAA and the scopc of nssessmcnt. Certnin issucs idcntificd by some revicwers arc be}•ond the scopc of ihe nssessmcnt, and therefore wcrc not requircd to Ix adJresscd in the finul �A. �These issues reluted to ihe need for and altcmalives to thc project; the selection of se��cre ncciJent scrnarios for assessment; ihc nccd to asscss outstanding sa(cty issucs relalcd lo generic uclion items; and thc need to assess "planncd" improvcmcn�s to �: madc prior lo thc rcturndo•scrvicc oF 1'NGS "A".j • At the cndicr scoping stage, a rcferral of ihe projecl to a fedeml revicw pancl or medintor woulJ havc bccn prctnaturc. I laving complcted thc rcvicw, a rcfcrral to a rcvicw pancl or medintor remains um��arrantcJ. • Allhough cnvironmcntal sluJics and investigations necd to continuc at PNGS, there is su�cicnt infommtion nvailabic lo makc rcasonahlc prcdictians about thc ovcrall likclihoad and significuncc of eftects. 'I'he infi�rmation availahle provides an adcquate basis for assessing cnvironmcnlal cl'fccts for thc puryx�sc of nn assessmrnt under CGAA, nnd lhc EA hns bccn abic lo iJenlify the IikclihooJ und significancc of the ndversc effects with rcusonnblc ccrtainty. • Conceming the 160 issucs prcviously identificJ by Ihc public, no significant udversc eUects on ihe environmcnt werc identifieJ in thc review of Ihesc issucs. Sevcral of ihcse issucs will continuc to bc monilurcd by CNSC s1afT: • Residual ndverse cumulativic efTccts ure not likely lo have a significant efTect on valued ecosystcm compancnls or on humans. In addition, suflicicnt Icchnology and cxpericncc will be availoble for the fumre decommissioning of PNGS "A", In the finnl analysis, CNSC smff concludcs thut the projccl, taking into uccount tl�e nppropriate mitigating mcnsures, is not likely to cnuse significnnt ndversc environmcntal effects. Thcy recommended thut the Commission accept the conclusions of the EA, and nllow the projeet to proceed to lhe licensing stuge under the Nucleur Sajery and Conlrol Act. In terms of the planned fallow-up program, CNSC staff recommends thut it be further delailcd in consultation with local community groups, and integmtcd into the subscquent licensing nnJ complianee process. The main components of the follow•up progrnm ure outlincd in Volume I of the EA Rcport (see Attuchment No. 2). Thc program included 14 activities to bc implementcd prior to the rcstnrl of PNGS "A", and 18 nctivities to bc implemcntcd aflcr rcstart. Peer Revtew Team Comments and RccommenJaHona Thc Pecr Rcview Tcam has recently revicwed and commenlcd on Volumc 3 of thc GA (Sea Atlachment No. I). Thcy provided both ovcrall commenls and spccific commcnts by discipline. • RepurF to Councii CAO 14-00 Datc: October I I, 2000 01 �. Subject: Comments on Finnl EA Screcning Report, Volume 3: Addemlum Pugc 5 of 7 Thesa comments should be considcred in addition to thc comments provided by the Review Twm on Volumes I and 2(see Report to Council CAO 12-00). Wilh respect to Volume 3, the Peer Revicw Tenm's overall comments nrc providcd undcr four muin headings. A summary of these comments Collows. i. Authorshia: CNSC staff claim to be tha °nuthor' of Volume 3. Howcver, the responsibility for praviding technical comments was largely deleguted to OPG and its consultnnt. CNSC staff then edited ihese rcsponses. This diminishcs uny third parly independence of the regulutor (CN3C) from the proponent (OPG). It does not nllow for nn imparlial urm's-length revicw of OPG's work, and compromiscs the credibility of the conclusions. 2. Adequacv of Resoonses: No defuifrd responses urc providcd in Volume 3 to many complex issues und concems. Responses are short, brief and �vilhout supporting nrgument. As well, seveml responses show inadcquatc comprehension of ihe scicntific issues involveJ and Ihc significunce of existing data gaps. 3. Seleclion of Commcnts: CNSC stnll� indicatcs Ihat all comments rcccivcd are included in Volumc 3, along wilh thc CNSC stafT responsc to cach of thc commcnts. In fact, many comments have becn cxcludcJ Gom Volume 3 or have been severely edited. Responses arc provided only lo selecleJ comments. 4. Need for an indcncndent 1'ancl Re�•iew: 'fhc Pccr Rcvicw 1'cam has fundamental concems with ihe nbsence of an objeclive re�•icw of thc responses lo comments made on the drafl environmcntal ussessmcnl. Mnny issucs have nat been addresscd aJcquately, or in an objcctivc faahion bccausc responscs arc providcd primarily by the proponcnt. lliis undermincs the credibility of the GA process and provides furthcr justification for an Indcpcndent Puncl Rcvicw whcrc comcntious issucs can bc diswsscd and resolveJ in a subslanlivc and objcctivc manncr. The following summurius thc Pccr Revicw'('cam' s specific comments by individual discipline. Hvdro�eolo�;v: Thcre is Iess than an adequate understanding of thc hydrogeology at PNGS and thcre is no cvidcncc that thc roles of kcy fcatures urc quantitalivcly understood. There arc also crrors in thc intemrctation of basic hydro6wlogical infortnation. It is Jiflicult to accept the report's conclusions with any levcl of confidenee. Radioactivitv: The Pccr Review Tenm continues to have doubts about the precise accurncy of thc results. Neverthcless, the estimates ure conservative [thc scnsitivity of somc monitoring equipment rcsults in highcr than actual readings] and lhe existing mdiution environment hns been well characterized. Consequcntly, the CNSC cnn justifinbly conclude that with regard to mdioactivity, the restari will not significantly impact the environmcnt under nortnal opemting conditions. Eurthauuke Risk: This rcmnins a very scrious issue. Therc is a lack of npproprintc gcological dam on which to base dcfinitive stntcments of enrthquakc probability and scismic risk. 7'hc Screening Rcport docs not appcur to rccognizc or ncccpt this largc and patcntially serious duW gup. The vnlidity af the probability estimutes of enrthqunkes at, or in the vicinity of PNGS is sevcrcly compromised. Thc existcnce of lurge datn gaps in understanding thc geologicul setting and earthquuke risk at PNGS cnn only bc rcsolvcd by indepcndenl lhird pMy scrutiny. Aquatic Diotn and Lake Imoacts: The inndequucy of rcsponses in Volume 3 to comments mnde on the lack of dnta conccming thc aquutic environmcnt surrounding PNdS simply underscores the existcnce of significunt data gaps, Rcsponses nrc ulso difficult to asscss • Report to Council CAO 14•00 Qatc: October I I, 2000 Subject: Comments on Finul EA Scrcening Report, Volumc 3: Addendum Pnge 6 of 7 O 11 because of considemble editing and reinterprctntion of what the Pecr Review Tcam slated eurlier and whnt wns originaily reported in the Dmtt EA report. It is also clear that the deficiencies mised by the Peer Review Team with regard to the use of historical Jata havc not been uddressed. Of concem nlso is the rntiunule for excluding information on pinnkton nnd mnerobenthos. Volume 3 does not shed any new light on any of the issues and concems previously raised. Public Heulth lssues: The nssessment of public health concems has been minimal at best. Essentially, the response to identified concems is to point to planned follow-up studies. As well, muny af the rcsponses to earlier comments rcgarding the lack of inethoJologicnl Jetail are very weak. Standard reporling systems um not always lhe most uppropriutc reporting mechanisms, particulnrly when trying to communicate to a broud lay audiencc. In conclusion the Peer Review Team reitemtes thnt Volume 3 fails to ndequotely recognize nnd respond to concems rcgarJing the cxistence oF significant datu gaps in the understanding of environmental conditions nround PNGS. This siluation undermines thc credibility of ihe conclusiom m�Je by CNSC that the restart will not hnve nny significant ndverse effects on the environment. Staff Commcuts StaR' concur with the Peer Review Team's linding and conclusions conceming Volume 3 of the EA, parlicularly wilh respccl to thc upparcnt lack of "objcctivity" on bchalf of CNSC in rcviewing OPG's work, as wcll us with res�xct to the conlinucJ existencc of dala gaps in environmcntal knowlcdgc and infurmation. Staff thcrcforc has ta•o kcy recommcndations for Council's wnsidcration: • That Council enJorsc thc Rcvicw 'I'cam's rc�rt and fonvnrd it to the Canadinn Nuclear Sufcry Cammission for considcration al thc Dcccmbcr 14'h hcuring in Pickcring; and • That Council rcquests the CNSC to nfcr thc maticr to thc Federul Ministcr of the Environment Cor nn indepcndent panel rcview or mcJi�tion process under the Canadian Envrrnnr.rrnlul Assessment Art. A slrong nrgument could bc put fonvard to thc Commission in support of thc recommcndution For an indepenJcnt panel rcview or mcdiulion process. I lowcvcr, despitc our best efforts, there is still n possibility lhat the Commission may rcjcct Pickering's position, and instead, inkc the ndvise of ils sw(f. Approval of thc EA would allow thc projcct to proceed to thc licensing stnge. Further input of the City would then conccivably be rcstricted to discussions on the proposed follow-up progmm outlined in Volume 1, potentially at Ihe discrction of CNSC stn(f. [n order to protect the City's intercst, it is therefore nlso appropriate nt this time for Council to consider un additionnl recommendation in ihe event the EA is approved. Should this happen, staff recommend thnt Council rcquest thc Commission to dircct its statf to revisc the planncd follow-up program ns necessury, to ensure it addresses the significnnt datn gaps identificd by the � City's Yecr Review Teum, and also, to obinin the upprovAl of lhc City of Pickering for thc revised program prior to the restart of PNGS "A". One additionnl mntler should nlso bc addresscd at this timc. Council will rccall thnt in March of this yenr OPG relcascd u report on the economic impacts of the Darlington and 1'ickering Nuclenr Genemting Stations. Juck Gurtley Consulting undertook a peer revicw oF thut rcport for tlie Ciry. A number of valid commenis werc mndc by Garticy, including the obscrvution thnt os thc host municipulity, Pickcring should considcr ncgoliating u fortnnl agrccment with OPG, such ns whot waa done in ihe casc of Darlington. An ngrccment bcnvecn Pickcring und OP(i, among other multcrs, could address the fuct that PNGS providcs rclativcly small cconomic bcnefits to thc City. It could alsa denl with thc issue of adcqunte compensalion for thc uscd dry fucl stomge facility located at PNOS. � Repo�tto Council CAO 14-00 Qute: October i I, 2000 012 �' • ' Subject Comments on Finnl EA Screening Report, Volumc 3: Addendum Pagc 7 of 7 It is thercfore niso suggested that n recommendntion ba endorscd by Council uuthorizing staff to begin negotiuting u Community Benefits Asreement with OPO on a withaut prejudice basis.

Authorship The Addendum states that it consists of thc CNSC's responses lo outside comments o� OPG's DraR Environmental Assessment Rcpan (DGAR) implying third party, independcnt scrutiny. This creates the impression of nn impanial arm's length review by CNSC. This is not the case as OPG and Golder l�nve provrded the respon.res to thc majoriry of aulside technical comments. In other cascs, responscs appear to have lxcn wrilten by ihc CNSC such as when it is sWtecl in several responses (e.g. N 397), that there will not be a full environmental revlew, that all issues have been aJdresscd and that existing data and methocfology are udequalc. In nddition, therc is Ihc vcry conNsing siwation whcrc CNSC apparcntly responds to commenis by the CNSC itsclf (c.g., pp.l-58). Presumably, lhis is CNSC e�liring of OPG's response to comments by CNSC siu(f. Page I-2 of Volumc 3 stales "As permiltcd unJer Seclion 17 oF the CGAA, CNSC dcicgated to OPG thc developmcnt of preliminary responscs to nil CNSC staff comments and many of the other technical commcnls raisccl during ihe revicw of draR CA Rcport. CNSC staff have reviewed, flnalised and accepteJ the responses". The Screening Report, Volumc 3 Addendum, is published under thc authorship of the Canadian Nucicar Safety Commission. Responsc N28 for example, cicarly slates that "as this is a CNSC Repart...". liowever, most of the volume has bcen prepared by OPG/Colder, Thc PRT suggest Ihat the Ciry of Pickering critically revicw Ihe wording of Ihe Decision, dated Sth September, 2000 (entitled Pickering NGS-A Cnvironmental Asscssment) from the Directorate of Reactor Regulatiou nnd Directorate of Environmental and Human Performance Assessments, to members of the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC File N 26-1-4- IS-1), On page 18 (Section 7, Public Consultation Process) it states that "stnkeholders have expressed concerns about what they view as wide gaps in critical intormation that preclude reasonable assessment conclusions". Funhermore, "CNSC staff have adJressed these issues in the EA and Addendum". This apparently is not the case as the ruponses provided in thc Addendum wete writtcn largciy by 01'G and Colder. Note also that "CNSC staff receivni requests from the public to refer the project to the Minister of Environment for a referral to an independent panel....CNSC staff wnsidered such a referral was premature, and that issues raised could be adequately addressed by tlie CNSCstaJjin the Screening Report". Again, this is not correct since by their own admission, CNSC sta(f mcrcly edited und accepteci OPG/Goiders responses, ls the conciuding statement "Having camplcted the Scrcening Repon, CNSC staff bctleves that a referral to a review panel ramains unwnrrantcd" mada by CNSC or OPG/Golder?

Dccause this was not donc, any pretence of a third party 'review' by CNSC must be laid to rest since the official CNSC response is appnrendy the work oJ�he proponen�. Thc PRT urges ihe Ciry of Pickering to ascertain exactly ivho authored the "CNSC" responses jor ench ojlhe 584 responses lisred in Volume 3, There is thc outwnrd appearnnce of a partnership betwecn OPG and CNSC which is fun�amentally at alds with Ihc fair, unbiasecl �ssessment process demanded by, and pramiscd to the Pickering community. 2. Adequacy ot responscs No de�nlled responses are provided in Valume 3 to the many complex issues and concerns raised by the PRT, outsiJe agencics and s�akeholders. Responses are short, brief and the words 'adequale','su(ficient' 'appropriate' aro usecl repeatcdly to descrihe the existing OPG database without supporting argument. This is Jespite thc PRT and others having providcd lengthy detniled revicws idcnti(ying significant Jatagaps in ihc environmental database for PNGS and its surcoundings. Another concern is the level of lechnical expertise shown by many responses to comments involving complex issucs. Scveral responscs show inaJequatc comprehcnsion of the scientific issues involved and thc significance of cxisling dalagaps. This is particularly apparent with regord to assessmcnt of thc Aquatic Environment surrounding PNCS and Geology/}lydrogcology and Seismicity (see detailed commcnts below). 3. Select(on of commenls Volume 3 of the Environmentai Assessment Screaning Report ("Addendum") contains the statement on page G-1 that the report presents "all comments received by the Canadian Nuclear Safery Commission from agencies, the public, and other stakeholders along with the CNSC response to each of the commenls", The PRT notes that, in fact, full writtcn statcments submitted by the PRT and other stakehoiders on carlicr Preliminary and Draft Environmenlal Assessment Reports do not appear in Volume 3. The statemenl.a have been severely edited; responses nre provided only to selected comments. 4, Need far Independent Poncl Review The PRT has fundamental concerns with the absence of an objective review of tha responses of OPG/Golder to comments made by outside ugencies and stakeholders on ihe DGAR. in prcsenNng a Screening Report which has been substantivcly wdtten by the proponent (OPG/Golder), CNSC appear to bc acting in a partini and biased manncr.

This undermines the credibility of the EA process and provides further justifica►ion for an Independcnt Panel Review whcre contentious issues can be discussed and resolvecf in a substantive and objective manncr. SPEC[FIC COMMENTS BY DISCIPLINE Hydrogcology It is clear, after review of both the Sitc•widc Ilydrogcology Rcport and 'CNSC' responses to concerns ralscd on scveral occasions by the PRT, that an adcquatc understanding of the hydrogeology nt PNCS remains ;u elusivc as ever. Thcre is no qucstion that on immcnse volume of dnta has becn amassed in ihc coursc of the work nnd it is encauraging to note that thc consulting team recognises the multi•layer hydrogeological system at Ihc site, and acknowledges the potential influence of construction activities e.g fill and sub-surface pipes on the hydrogeological behaviou� of thc systcm. hevcnhcicss, while thcse important faclors nre documented, there is no evidence presenleJ in thc re�ns Ihat the roles of these key fcatures are r�uantitarively undersloal. GrounJwalcr fluxcs arc not well known nnd grounJwater flow velocities, confidently tabulated to three significant figures, werc calculatcd using total porosity (a valuc of 25% basnl nn 12 laboralory measuremcnts) instead of e(fective porosity. While ihis is unlikely lo bc a problem for sanJ and gravcl materials wherc total anJ cffective porosities will bc similar, it will likcly resull in scrious underestimates of flow velociry where fracturo (low and wnduit flaw is occurring. Quantitative issues aside, it is also disturbing to note some fundamental errors in the interpretation of basic hydrogeological information. For example, the water table map presented in Figure 4-26 incorrectly implies that grounJwater can "branch out" from a singlc flow line. it is also suggested that the Easl landfill represents a"recharge area" by vinue of the mound that occurs beneath it i.e. thut high gradients are iodicative of high flows. Unfortunately, this is not always so. In the first place mounding will naturaliy occur betwecn two discharge points even under conditions of evenly distributed recharge. Furthermore, high gradients can also indicate low permeability media, a fact conveniently used by the consultants to suggest limited inflow of groundwater into Lake Ontnrio (Page 4•44, paragraph S). While it remains possible Uiat qic Easl landfiii represents a key recharga area, equally well it may not. Until very basic issues such as the distribution of nquifer recharge on the site can ba established, it is difficult to accept the repon's conclusions with any level of confidence. Rad(oactivity No maJor sources of radiation have been overlookal. 7'he PRT continues to have dou6ts about the accuracy of the results but notes, ance egain, that estimotes are conservative end thc exisUng radiadon cnvironmont has been well charactcriscd. in rcgnrd ro rndioucNvity and dosc . . ATTACHMENT# � TOREPOAT#�-�9�ypO . ' ' ' �so�\o 017 to the public, the'CNSC' can justifiably claim that that the restnrt will not significantly impact the environment under normal operating condilions. Eorthquake risk This remains n very s�rious issue of contention. At heart, is a lack of appropriatc geological data on which to base definitive statements regarding estimates of earthquake probabiliry and seismic risk at PNGS. The Screening Report does not nppear to recognise, or accept, this Inrge and potentially serious datagap. Thc City should notc that OPG's own geological consultant (Natural Resources Canada, n fecicrai agency) also rnise this issue (H486). The central fact, not Jisputccl by cithcr OPG or CNSC, is that a major Precambrian slrucmrc (the CMBDZ) lics direcUy under PNGS. This structurc continues southward into Pennsylvania where it has generated recent earthquakc activity suffici^.nt to close (temporarily) a US nudear power siatian, OPG's information rcgarding thc nawre of the structure below and in the vicinity of PNGS is IimitcJ to a sLigfe deep boreliole. This is unacccplable and allows no determination as to whether thcrc is any Jisplacemcnt of strata across the strucwre. Figurc 6.7-Ib (regional beJrock gcology; Pickering Nucicar sitc) in Volume 3 is misleading. How is the precise geographic position of the CMUUZ, shown as a dashed line on lhat figure, conslraineJ on the basis of onc boreholel Note that Ontario Geological Survcy Map 2544 depicts the the CMEiDZ az a'faull iraceable in thc subsurface' pnsstng direc�ly beloiv PNGS. In lhis regard, thc PRT notes that Of'G's/Goldcrs work was not been (ormally reviewed by geologisis employcd by the Ontario Gcological Survcy which is a major omission. It follows that the very limited data available, regarding the characicr and precise position of the CMBDZ close to PNGS, do not allow ihe comment made in responsc N 231, that "tha decp basement structures havc no app�irent relationship to seismicity". US experience would indicate that this statement is incortect nnd that thc validity of the probability estimates of eanhquakes at, or in the vicinity of PNGS is severely compromiseJ. The blanket statement (response N 167) that "structural geology is not dealt with at length becausc The City af Pickering should nscenain from CNSC exactly who authored this response us it shows inadequate understanding of fundamental geologicai principles. Curiously, thc 5creening Repon refers to "open fractures in the Precambrian strata nt depth" (Response N 485). Iust what precisely ure these?

Othor "misleading" (comment N 484) and "ettaneous" (comment M 488) stetements in DEAR are highlighled by Natural Resources Cannda in their rcview of thc geology and seismiciry secdon. , • . ATTACHMENT#�TO REPORT#� ��1•oQ O 18 ' ' � lo o�` \o The PRT has read the Sub-appendix K.3-3 (Scismic 1lazard and Seismic Design Issuc: Submission to Senate Sub-Commiltee) included in Volume 3 nnd noles that many responses to geological und seismic issues at PNGS reveal extremely poor undcrstnnding of basic concepts. The PRT slands by its concerns raiseJ in commcnt N231. The situation, where the Scrcening Report refuse ta accept the eriatence of large data gaps in understanding the geological setting and earthquake risk ut PNGS, can only be resolvecl by independen! third party scrutiny. Aquutic bfola and lakc impacts Thc res�nses in Volume 3 to Ihe many and suhslantial PRT comments on tha lack of underslanding of thc nquatic environment surrounding PNGS simply underscore the existence of substantial dnta gaps. Unfortunatcly, it is evcn more difficult now to critically assess the responses of Golder/OPC/CNSC bccausc therc has bccn considerablc ediling and re- interprclalion of what was statal by thc PRT, and what was reportcd in DEAR. The Screening Report continucs to perpclualc thc notion Ihat thcrc arc "30 years of exlensive historical datn" which arc just as good ns (if not beuer than) current data for documenting cxisting conditions. Thair statement on p. 70 summarizes lheir position: "...A�ry plece oJhisloricaf dnrn is iuefid und helpjd br rmderstnn�ling mid dejning die diermal plrom� � crs". This statement is faulty from many standpoints as the vahre of historical data depcnds completely an the �unliry of the data, not just the quan�iry. When data are eombined inappropriately, or misrepresented, they can lead to biased conclusions. When methods are not properly documenled, it is not even possiblc to ascertain their validity. The data from "historical lake water temperarore moniroring associaled with lhe operntion of PNGS", which extended over a period of 26 years from 1971 to 1997, are only valuabie if the methods arc clearly documented, and we know w/rere the data were collected, when they w�re collceted, and have a measure of their variaGiliry. The PRT have asked repeatedly for better doccmcntation and this was not forthcoming in Volume 3. It is clear that neither OPG/Golder have begun to address the deficiencies rnised'oy the PRT with regard to the use of historical dam. The problcm has been raised to an even l;ighcr levcl by blanket references in Volume 3 to "extensive historical data" (on p. 67): "The EA used approzlmalely 30 years ojexrenslvc htstorlcal dnta, Habltat dmraaeiizarion, knowledge ojhabltnt use nnr/ Ilje Hts�ory processes of VEC and olher species, ns we�7 ns tHe data colleded Jrom /999 jallhvinrerJield surveys ".

The PRT nlso haz a problem with the Screening Report's rationale for excluding informxtion on plankton anJ macrobenthos. It is stated (on p. 70) ihat "...the plankton and mncrobenthos communities are important components of the aquatic ecosystem nnJ anything that affects the lower fooJ wcb mny potentially aflect the upper trophic Icvcis..."; despitc this, they excludcd plankton nnd macrobentlios Gom thcir report because VGCs only included fish taxa, which "integratecl res�nsc to effects at lower trophic Icvels", Flowever, as part of the jolloivr�p monitoring, they propose lo include Ihc lower trophic levcis in the monitoring program because thcy may be better "early warning" indicaiors �han fish. The PRT nsks just how ure they going to comparc the post-slart-up data in tl�c absencc oF any prc•slart-up dala? lf macrobcnthos anJ plankton are wonhy of being monitorcd a(ter thc start up, why arcn't they worlhy of being monitorcd now7 flow can changes be idcntifiecl without baseline information? (Table 6.5-4a). These are thc minimum, maximum and mcan data for each month ovcr the monitoring period, In preparing this iabic, OPG again ignored thc PRT's objections to the indiscriminant nmalgamation of Jala without fully documcnting thc assumplions. Keeping in mind that thcre were di(fercnt operational conditions during the period 1971 to 1988: • 1971 to I973; four PNGS•A reactors sequentially became operalional • 1974 to 1979: all PNCS-A rcaclors operated at >80% copaciry • 1986-58: both PNGS-A and B in operation. � And thnt data were collected in di(ferent ways through the perial: • (according to p. 2l of April 2000 DEAR) 7 to 14 stations were sampled from 1970 to 1988 (Fig. 6.4-8) • temperatures continuously measured (but intervals not indicated) • at three different water depths (1-2m; 8m and 12 m). Tha additional data provided in Volume 3 does not address any oF tha foilowing questions: 1.

Public flcolth Iaaues Gsscntially, OPGs rcsponse ta an•going/fulurc hcnilh (broadly defincd) conccros rnised by thc PRT and othcrs is to point to pinnncd fol low•up stuJics. As u result, a lot is riding on thesc if on- going public health conccros arc going to be genuinely monitored. See for example # 303, rnised by the CAC, us wcll as thc likcly cnvironmcntal effects (p, FI•G). Sce nlso comment N16R p. 63 which promises "additional public ultitudes rescarch to be conducted to guage psychosocial impacts". Many of the rcsponses to PRT's comments regurding lack of inethodologicnl detnil nre vcry wcak. Typically, Volume 3 states thnt nny infortnalion the PRT asked for is in a tcchnicul appendix somewhere. However, in most instances the informntion the PRT was asking for tvas not provtded !n a �eclinical appendJx; if it had been, the PRT wauld hnve simply uskcd Cor it to be brought forward to the muin document. The second rype of response involves the clnim ihnt the consultants were simply following conventional EA practice and/or the stnndntd rcporting mcchnnism of the consulting firm (e,q., response lo conccrn N181). This respnnce is iruly weal:; standerd reporting mcchanisms nrc not by definition thc most appropriatc rcponing mechnnisms, puniculnrly when trying to communicnte to n broad lay nudience. With respect to the response to concem #182 (Inck ofmcthodological detail re: cconomic impacts), a refercnce document is refcrtcd to which the PRT did NOT rccciva Re: NI84, the OPO response is missing the point. Tha paint is NOT ihc small sample sizc but mther the fact that the concerns bcing ruiscd (health, safety, lack of credibility) were bcing fgnored in thc rcport. PRT hus stated on severnl occasions that the assessment of public hcalth concerns is minimul nt best. This ts undcrscorcd by the OPas rcsponse to comment 11301 (p.128).

Tha PRT finds that the majority of responses madc to comments raised by the CNSC, outside ngcncies und thc pubiic presented in Volumc 3 are inaJequate and shaw poor Icvels of unJcrstending of basic scientific informadon. The PRT cannot identify thc nuthorship of many respanses; most nppcar to be the work of the proponent (OPG/Golder) raiher than CNSC. Tho absence of scientifically credible responses to complex issues and comments raiseJ by outsidc stakeholJers and the PRT severcly compromises thc validity of Volume 3 and the entire environmenlal nssessment. 2, Given tliat only selected comments by outside agencies and stakeholders were respanded to in the Volume 3 Jocument and not all of the 160 + issues raised during thc 1998 Pickering Environmcmal Revicw werc addressed, thc PRT cannot agrec with the statement made in the Scrcening Rcpart that: "CNSC slaff Jocs not bclicvc that thcrc arc outstanding issucs that have not bcen aJdresscd by the cnvironmental assessment" (CNSC response M 397). Or the statcment that: "... the environmemal assessment is extensive and detailed, and covers all the issues relevant lo this study, including the concerns of communities and residents near the facility."(CNSC Responsc N 397). 3. The PRT emphasises that the conclusions presented in Valume 3, and any enviranmenlai action plans, rcmedial and mitigntive measures identifled by OPG/Golder during the course of the EA Process, are based on knowlcdge which is inadequate, The PRT has made this comment rcpeatedly in its earlicr revicws of the Preliminary DraR (PDEAR) and Draft Gnvironmental Asscssment Reports (DEAR). 'ff�at the exiscence of such datagaps has either not been recognised or is disputed by OPC/CNSC underminas ihe credibiliry of any canclusions, action plans and mitigative measures issued by CNSC or OPG. In conclusion, thc PRT reiterutes that Volume 3 fails to adcquately rewgnise and respond to concerns regarding the existence of significant dnla gaps in the • underslanding of emironmentnl condilions In and around PNOS. This s(tuadon undermines the credibility of the conclusion mada by CNSC es to the'absence af s(gnificant adverse aFfects of tha reswrt of Plckedng'A' on the cnvironmcnt'.
