Conceptual Site Model
Overview
The site is located on the north side of Blake Street east of Johnson Street near the northeast
limit of the City of Barrie. The municipal address is 376 Blake Street and the site encompasses
less than 0.5 hectare. At the time of the Phase One Environmental Site Assessment (ESA), dated
December 9, 2013, the subject site included an unoccupied commercial building that formerly
operated as a bowling alley. The site was bounded by a Lion’s Hall dining establishment to the
east, residential townhouse blocks to the west and individual detached residences to the north as
well as across Blake Street to the south.
The City of Barrie confirmed that historically the property had been zoned General Commercial
(C4) according to Zoning By-law #85-950 for a bowling alley. Furthermore, the City of Barrie
building department issued Building Permit No. 56-074 for a bowling alley on the property on
April 17, 1956. The site is currently zoned Residential RM2 (SP-479, H-119) in accordance with
By-law 2009-141. Finally, Building Permit No. 13-3204 was issued on October 28, 2013 for the
building demolition.
Subsequent to the Phase One ESA an Area of Potential Environmental Concern (APEC) was
identified to be the presence of grading fill at the subject site (Schedule D, Table 2, Item 30). The
fill was required for the construction of the former bowling alley and related parking areas that
operated between 1957 & 2013.
Additional Potential Contaminating Activities (PCAs) that have occurred in the study area
include the following:
The Simcoe County District School Board, at the Johnson Street elementary school
located east of the subject site, was identified as a Waste Generator of laboratory
chemicals & residues.
Harold Martin Rent-All Ltd. was also identified as a Waste Generator of petroleum
distillates.
A 1-2 litre transformer leak was noted at 360 Blake Street; however, environmental
impact was not anticipated.
The Schmidt & Shaw Sales & Service vehicle dealership and historic lumber storage yard
located to the east,
Barrie Carwash Ltd. and Brain’s Used Car Sales located to the northeast.
These activities denoted as PCAs are identified on the appended Conceptual Site Model (CSM)
provided as Enclosure N° 1.
GEOSPEC ENGINEERING LTD. June 18 2006536 Ontario Inc. Record of Site Condition Filing 2
The proposed development of the site is intended to include a residential use with the
consequential relocation and/or removal of the existing building and related grading fill (of
unknown origin). Although the fill will be replaced with a controlled engineered fill, a Record of
Site Condition is required. A preliminary Proposed Development Outline is provided as
Enclosure N° 4. The objective of the Phase Two ESA was to further investigate the fill present at
the site. Test pitting was performed to permit both additional observations of the fill and
acquisition of representative fill samples. The test hole locations are shown on the appended
Cross Section Plan (Enclosure N° 2); while a depiction of the soil stratigraphy is presented in the
Cross Section A-A’(Enclosure N° 3).
A review of the MOE water well records established that five domestic wells records were
available within the identified 250 m buffer of the subject site. The wells were drilled to depths
varying between approximately 52 m & 123 m. The wells encountered predominantly clay with
sand & silt seams. Two wells were dry; while the other three noted static water levels at 15 and
28 m below grade.
Our Geotechnical Investigation at the site and our experience in the area has established that the
predominant soil deposit is compact to very dense, silt & sand till. The till could be considered
an aquitard which overlies the aquifer at variable depth. The subsequent Test Pit Investigation
conducted on-site established that a thin surface cover grading fill was present between the
underlying very dense silt & sand till and the 1956 property development, more specifically the
building slab and related asphalt area. Since the till exhibited low permeability the groundwater
was not considered to be at risk and not investigated.
The Phase Two ESA included the analyses of samples for potential impact from the Schedule D,
Table 2, Item 30 fill as well as site vehicle parking activities. Soil samples were acquired in
dedicated sample jars provided by a CALA laboratory in accordance with O. Reg and analysed
for the presence of metals, pH, free cyanide, Sodium Adsorption Ratio (SAR), Electrical
Conductivity, Petroleum Hydrocarbons (PHCs), Benzene, Toluene, Ethyl Benzene, Xylene
(BTEX) & Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs).
The soil analyses were within MOE Table 2 (Full Depth Generic Site Condition Standards in
Potable Groundwater Condition) for Residential/Parkland property use for coarse textured soil.
The groundwater analyses were also within the MOE Table 2 Standards for Residential/
Parkland property use.
The CSM is presented as Enclosure 1 and includes the APEC revealed as well as PCAs in the
surrounding buffer area identified.
Site History
Land titles have established that the site was property of the Crown prior to 1843. Private
individuals owned the property between 1843 & 1956. Although title ownership suggests
farming extended back to at least 1919, aerial photography confirmed agricultural farming use
between 1946 & 1956.
City of Barrie building permit records indicate that two permits were issued for the site. A permit
was issued for the construction of the bowling alley in 1956 and a permit for its demolition in
GEOSPEC ENGINEERING LTD. June 18 2006536 Ontario Inc. Record of Site Condition Filing 3
2013. During the construction of the bowling alley building and parking area, fill was brought to
the site for levelling purposes. No record of the fill source was available. Utility trenches extend
north from Blake Street, approximate middle of the property front, to the front of the building
middle, west side. Utility trenches were backfilled with site native material. No visual, tactile or
olfactory evidence of environmental impact was apparent within the test pits excavated into the
fill.
APECs would consequently include those tabulated below.

Physical Setting
The localized topography relative to the surrounding area may be described as gently sloping
towards the south southwest with elevations that range from approximately 256 masl to 254 masl
from north to south. The north and west property lines are wooded.
The geology and hydrology of the area were determined by a review of the Ministry of Natural
Resources, Ontario Geological Survey, Map 2441 and Geological Survey of Canada, Map
1228A Geology of Lake Simcoe Area. The site is located in an area that is part of the
Phanerozoic Eon, Paleozoic Era and Middle Ordovician Epoch Trenton and Black River Group
which comprises grey fine grained limestone and minor dolostone. Furthermore, the referenced
mapping indicates regional topography to be gently sloping to the south towards the Kempenfelt
Bay of Lake Simcoe.
Physiographically, the site lies within the West St. Lawrence Lowland and hydrogeologically
within a drainage basin feeding Kempenfelt Bay. Glaciolacustrine erosional deposits comprised
primarily of sand, gravelly sand or sand & gravel characterize the sub soil of the Lowland. The
permeability of these types of soil is typically moderate. However, our experience at eh site and
the general area has established that the shallow soil is comprised of compact to very dense silt
& sand till.
Since the soil in the area exhibits relatively low permeability, surface runoff presumably either
infiltrates or flows into the municipal storm water system via ditches. Nevertheless, it has been

our experience that shallow groundwater flow may be influenced by variations in soil type and
minor fluctuations in topography. The permeability of the shallow silt and till soil is estimated to
be less than 10-5
cm/sec. Bedrock was not encountered during the subsurface investigation.
Bedrock topographic mapping indicates the bedrock is at a depth of approximately 100 m (Elev.
155 m).
Groundwater was not encountered to a depth of 2.9 m.
Comments
The subject site is not considered environmentally sensitive since the site is neither identified as
an area of Natural Significance on the Ministry of Natural Resources heritage website nor
includes soil beyond the pH range prescribed in the O.Reg. 153/04 for surface or subsurface soil.
Furthermore, the site would not be considered a shallow soil property because the average depth
to bedrock is beyond 100 meters and the site is not within 30 meters of a sensitive water body.
As a result, the site may be compared to the Generic Standards.
