The installation of a new tile drain from Municipal Drain #13 - Wrightson (MD #13) to provide a drainage outlet to Lots 21 and 22, Concession 1 and 2. 2. In the future, abandon the temporary outlet located through the side road at the northwest corner of Lot 21, Concession 2 and connect all under drainage within this lot to Branch B. This temporary outlet should be removed when the land owner installs additional tiling within the property or if there are any operational concerns with MD #13. A summary of the assessments for this project are as follows: Privately owned Agricultural Land $33,930 Municipally owned Road Allowance $23,290 Total Estimated Assessments $57,220 1.4 Acknowledgements Burnside would like to acknowledge the assistance and co- operation of the landowners directly involved with this project, as well as the Municipality of Kincardine and their Municipal Staff. R.J. Burnside & Associates Limited MCW179950 17995 Wrightson MD Final Report.doc Municipality of Kincardine 2 Engineer's Report, MD #13 — Wrightson, Branch B — 2011 February 22, 2011 2.0 Introduction 2.1 History A report was prepared in 1981 by A.W. Clark, P. Eng. that encompassed several past reports and award drains. This report established the watershed boundary for MD #13, as well as Branch A. Previous to this report the downstream section of the Municipal Drain was constructed under a report by G.E. Stephenson, P. Eng. dated August 2, 1950. The upstream section of the drain was established through reports in 1913, 1916, as well as award drains in 1918 and 1939. The last recorded award drain was completed in 1941. 2.2 Petition for Drainage Works This Report was initiated by a Petition submitted by the owner of Lot 22, Concession 2. 2.3 Landowner Meetings The on -site meeting was held on April 13, 2010 for the landowners on the upstream end of the MD #13 watershed to discuss the Petition submitted by the landowner of Lot 22, Concession 2. A second meeting was held on August 12, 2010 for the landowners within the affected watershed area of the proposed Branch B drain to review the design and estimated costs for the drain. 2.4 Existing Conditions 2.4.1 Lot 22, Concession 2, Bruce The condition of this property was discussed at the meeting held on April 13, 2010. The owner indicated that the private tile that provided an outlet through Lot 21, Concession 2 and 3 was no longer available to him, and that his land required a drainage outlet. He also indicated that he has plans to install systematic under drainage on his property once an outlet is established. 2.4.2 Lot 21, Concession 2, Bruce At the April meeting, the owner of this property indicated that he currently has two connections for his property; namely an old 10" private tile that extends from MD #13 through Lot 21, Concession 3, through the road allowance to his property, and a private connection through Sideroad 20 that he has arranged with the Municipality for a connection to the upstream end of MD #13. The landowner indicated that his property R.J. Burnside & Associates Limited MCW179950 17995 Wrightson MD Final Report.doc Municipality of Kincardine 3 Engineer's Report, MD #13 — Wrightson, Branch B — 2011 February 22, 2011 was not entirely systematically under drained but that there was some under drainage tile within the property. The owner also indicated that there was a private tile extending south to his property line to allow for tile connections to Lot 21 & 22, Concession 1. 2.4.3 Lot 21, Concession 3, Bruce The owner of this property indicated at the April meeting that one and possibly two private tiles extended from MD #13 south through the road to allow a connection for under drainage to Lot 21, Concession 2. The owner also indicated that there was some under drainage tile through his property that should remain in use. 2.4.4 Roads Department, Municipality of Kincardine The Municipality indicated that they would prefer to have a bored crossing if a tile was to be installed through the Concession Road. No other concerns or a requirement for drainage were raised by the Municipality. 2.5 Environmental & Fisheries Issues When a new Engineer's Report is prepared that could affect an existing open Municipal Drain, the process requires that a review of the work and subsequent approvals be obtained from the local Conservation Authority and /or Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO). Since the majority of the MD #13 Drain is a tiled drain, minimal review and comments were received from the Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority (SVCA). 2.6 Engineer's Report As a result of the information gathered during the on -site surveys and the discussions at the various meetings, the proposed works and costs contained herein are intended to reflect the requirements of the stakeholders. Details of the proposed work are described in this Report, its Appendices and on the Plan and Profile. 3.0 Description of Watershed 3.1 Location This Drain is located in the south east section of the geographic Township of Bruce, Lot 21 and 22, Concession 2 & 3, Municipality of Kincardine. The proposed Branch B is approximately 357 m in length and the location is shown on the enclosed Plan. 3.2 Area The entire watershed that is affected by Branch B is approximately 76 ha (188 acres). R.J. Burnside & Associates Limited MCW179950 17995 Wrightson MD Final Report.doc Municipality of Kincardine 4 Engineer's Report, MD #13 — Wrightson, Branch B — 2011 February 22, 2011 3.3 Boundary The watershed boundary for Branch B is indicated on the Plan. The previous report prepared in 1981 was referenced for the watershed boundary and used for calculation of areas allowed to connect into MD #13. 3.4 Soils The Bruce County Soils Maps indicate that the predominate soil types in this watershed are Perth Clay Loam with some Huron Clay Loam and some Brookston Clay Loam. All soils are a heavy textured till having good to imperfect to poor natural drainage with few stones and smooth to moderately sloping in topography. The soils within the area have an agricultural capability rating of 100% Class 1 with no limitations. 3.5 Land Use The land within this drainage area is used for agricultural purposes such as cash crops and pasture. 4.0 The Drainage Act, RSO 1990 This Report is being prepared in accordance with Section 4 of the Drainage Act. The area requiring drainage is Part of Lot 22, Concession 2, in the geographic Township of Bruce and it is in need of an under drainage outlet. No other landowners indicated the need for a drainage outlet, therefore it was determined that the Petition submitted for drainage works was valid on the basis that all of the owners in the area requiring drainage had signed it, in accordance with Section 4 (1) (a) of the Act. 5.0 Design Criteria The applicable sections of the "Design and Construction Guidelines for Work Under the Drainage Act", as prepared by the Government of Ontario, and the applicable sections of the "Drainage Guide for Ontario ", as published by the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food, have been used for the design of this Municipal Drain and will also be used for the construction. Based on the 1981 report, the existing MD #13 was designed with a drainage co- efficient of 12.7 mm (one half inch) in 24 hours which is the standard used to determine the under drainage requirements of cleared, worked, agricultural land. R.J. Burnside & Associates Limited MCW 179950 17995 Wrightson MD Final Report.doc Municipality of Kincardine 5 Engineer's Report, MD #13 — Wrightson, Branch B — 2011 February 22, 2011 Since none of the landowners indicated a desire to increase the capacity of the existing drain, no redesign or additional drainage co- efficient to the existing MD #13 was completed. It should be noted that at times of extreme rainfall events, surface water can enter the drain through catch basins and junction boxes located throughout the drain. 6.0 Design and Engineering Considerations It is good engineering practice to maintain 1 metre of cover on tile drain through a worked agricultural field and adequate separation from wooded areas. This practice was explained to the landowners at the meetings. To ensure that the new Branch of the Municipal Drain would not interfere with the existing 10" private tile on Lot 21, Concession 3, this tile was located prior to submission of this Report. The new Branch is proposed to be installed offset from the 10" private tile on Lot 21, Concession 3. According to the Lot 21, Concession 2 landowner, there are two outlets for the private tiles on the property. There is an outlet at the north side of the property, connecting to the 10" private tile across Lot 21, Concession 3. There is also an outlet at the west side of the property through Sideroad 20 that connects directly to the upstream end of MD #13. The 1981 Engineers Report indicates that the south east quadrant of the drainage area connects at Station 3 +25 and that the upstream end of the Main Drain has a junction box for private drains in the south west portion of the drainage area to connect to. It is recommended that all future drainage tiles for Lot 21, Concession 2 be connected to Branch B. It is also recommended that if there are any concerns raised with respect to the performance of MD #13, that the temporary connection through the Sideroad for Lot 21, Concession 2 be disconnected and rerouted to the proper location of Branch B and ultimately enter MD #13 at the proper location, as was indicated in the 1981 report. The cost of this work shall be the responsibility of the landowner of Lot 21, Concession 2. The landowner for Lot 22, Concession 2, indicated that the area, as shown on the plan and in the 1981 report, is the only area that requires under drainage connection into MD #13. R.J. Burnside & Associates Limited MCW179950 17995 Wrightson MD Final Report.doc Municipality of Kincardine 6 Engineer's Report, MD #13 — Wrightson, Branch B — 2011 February 22, 2011 7.0 Proposed Work In accordance with Section 8 (1) (a) of the Drainage Act, the Specifications, Plans and Profile of the proposed work are contained in Appendix E and F of this Report and provide complete details of the entire project. This section of the Report is intended to provide only a very brief description of the work on the various parts of the Drain. 7.1 Branch B 7.1.1 Lot 21, Concession 3 The buried junction box described in the 1981 report could not be located during field investigations. It is recommended that a new junction box be installed, due to the angle that the proposed Branch B will enter the Main Drain. The tile will be placed as indicated on the profile through the Lot to the Concession Road. The new drain will be off set from the existing 10" private tile and any under drainage tiles will be reconnected as they are encountered. 7.1.2 Concession Road A catch basin will be placed at the property line on each side of the Concession Road. A bored crossing will be installed to connect Branch B through the Municipal Road allowance. The existing tile that crosses the Concession Road will be disconnected on the south side of the road and connected to the new catch basin, as part of the construction of Branch B. 7.1.3 Lot 21, Concession 2 The tile will be installed to the Lot 21/22 property line. A new junction box will be placed at the property line for connection of under drainage tiles from Lot 22. 7.1.4 General Construction The reconnection of tiles encountered during the installation of Branch B will be included as part of the construction costs. However, the costs for any private tile connections to the junction boxes, other than the connections mentioned in 7.1.2 completed during the time of construction of this Branch drain, will be assessed directly to the landowner. Any private tile relocations required during the construction will also be assessed directly to the landowner. 7.2 Working Spaces and Access Routes The working space and access routes being provided to the Contractor to undertake this work are described in Appendix E - Special Information to Tenderers on the chart entitled 'Working Space ". This working space shall also be available for future R.J. Burnside & Associates Limited MCW179950 17995 Wrightson MD Final Report.doc Municipality of Kincardine 7 Engineer's Report, MD #13 — Wrightson, Branch B — 2011 February 22, 2011 maintenance. Access to the working space is to be confirmed by the Contractor with the engineer prior to commencement of construction. Appropriate allowances have been provided to the various properties in this regard. Access to this drain for the Contractor will be from the Sideroad and across Lot 21, both in Concession 2 and Concession 3. 7.3 Change Orders If unforeseen circumstances are encountered after the adoption of this Report, the engineer may issue Change Orders as required to have the works properly constructed. 8.0 Environmental Considerations With a Municipal drain, consideration should be given to whether the drainage works affects the environment. Since this is a closed drain connecting to an existing drain, there should be no environmental concerns. The Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority (SVCA) has been consulted and there is no requirement for a permit within this area. There does not appear to be any species at risk that would require special consideration under the Species at Risk Act (SARA) within this area. Accordingly, it is not anticipated that this project will create any significant adverse environmental effects. 9.0 Description of Appendices Four of the appendices to this Report, namely Appendix A - Allowances, Appendix B - Cost Estimate, Appendix C — Assessment Schedules and Appendix D — Assessment Details are described in the following sub - sections. 9.1 Appendix A — Allowances 9.1.1 General In accordance with Section 8(1) (d) of the Drainage Act, this Appendix provides a breakdown of the allowances provided under Sections 29 and 30 of the Act. Allowances will be deducted from total assessments in accordance with Section 62(3) of the Act. The land and crop values used for these calculations were determined in consultation with Farm Credit Canada and a representative of Agricorp respectively, and are described in the following sections. The results of the allowance calculations under each Section of the Act can be seen within this Appendix. Details regarding working space can be found in the Special Information to Tenderers. R.J. Burnside & Associates Limited MCW179950 17995 Wrightson MD Final Report.doc Municipality of Kincardine 8 Engineer's Report, MD #13 — Wrightson, Branch B — 2011 February 22, 2011 9.1.2 Section 29 — Right of Way The Act states "The engineer in the report shall estimate and allow in money to the owner of any land that it is necessary to use, (a) for the construction or improvement of a drainage works; (b) for the disposal of material removed from drainage works; (c) as a site for a pumping station to be used in connection with a drainage works; or (d) as a means of access to any such pumping station, if, in the opinion of the engineer, such right of way is sufficient for the purposes of the drainage works, the value of any such land or the damages, if any, thereto, and shall include such sums in the estimates of the cost of the construction, improvement, repair or maintenance of the drainage works R. S.O. 1990, s. 29." A base value of $9,884 per hectare ($4,000 /acre) for workable, agricultural land has been used to calculate the allowances for all land taken or right -of -way given in this Report. These allowances have been provided to the properties where a right -of -way is required for the new closed drain. The value for closed tile drains was reduced to one third of the land value and was applied to a 10 m width for the tile drain since the and can still be used for agricultural purposes. 9.1.3 Section 30 — Damages The Act states "The engineer shall determine the amount to be paid to persons entitled thereto for damage, if any, to ornamental trees, lawns, fences, lands and crops occasioned by the disposal of material removed from a drainage works and shall include such sums in the estimates of the cost of the construction, improvement, repair or maintenance of the drainage works. R.S.O. 1990, c. D.17, s. 30." The allowances for damage to lands and crops have been calculated using a base value of $1,235.50 per hectare ($500 /acre) of workable, agricultural land. A 20 m width for the tile drains has been provided, as well as an allowance for one access point for each property and additional area at the Concession Road for the bored crossing. 9.2 Appendix B — Cost Estimate In accordance with Section 8(1) (b) of the Drainage Act, this Appendix provides a breakdown of the total estimated cost of the proposed work including all materials, construction, administration and allowances. The total estimated cost for this project is $57,220. R.J. Burnside & Associates Limited MCW179950 17995 Wrightson MD Final Report.doc Municipality of Kincardine 9 Engineer's Report, MD #13 — Wrightson, Branch B — 2011 February 22, 2011 9.3 Appendices C and D — Assessments and Assessment Details 9.3.1 General In accordance with Section 8(1) (c) of the Drainage Act, this Appendix is the distribution of the total estimated cost over the lands and roads involved. These assessments are made in accordance with Sections 22, 23, 24 and 26 of the Act. Affected private lands that are agricultural within the meaning of the Act may be eligible for a grant through the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. The Engineering and Administration costs have been assessed out over the entire drain. 9.3.2 Section 26 Section 26 of the Act states that a road authority or public utility "In addition to all other sums lawfully assessed against the property of a public utility or road authority under this Act, and the despite the fact that the public utility or road authority is not otherwise assessable under this Act, the public utility or road authority shall be assessed for and shall pay all the increase of cost of such drainage works caused by the existence of the works of the of the public utility or road authority R.S.O. 1990, c.D17, s.26." For this project, there is a road crossing that a Section 26 Assessment has been applied. All of the additional cost for the construction of the drain on the Municipality of Kincardine road allowance has been assessed to the Municipality. The Section 26 assessments will be adjusted to reflect the actual cost of works after construction. For Branch B, the cost of installing the upstream sized tile across the 30 m right of way shall be deducted from the actual cost of construction. The respective engineering and administrative costs for the crossing have been charged as a specific benefit and will be prorated, except for the on -site contract administration which will be based on actual costs. 9.3.3 Sections 22 and 23 Section 22 of the Act states "Lands, roads, buildings, utilities or other structures that are increased in value or are more easily maintained as a result of the construction, improvement, maintenance or repair of a drainage works may be assessed for benefit. R.S.O. 1990, c. D.17, s. 22." Section 23 of the Act states "(1) Lands and roads that use a drainage works as an outlet, or for which, when the drainage works is constructed or improved, an improved outlet is provided either directly or indirectly through the medium of any other drainage works or of a swale, ravine, creek or watercourse, may be assessed for outlet liability. (2) If, from any land or road, water is artificially caused by any means to flow upon and injure any other land or road, the land or road from which the water is caused to flow R.J. Burnside & Associates Limited MCW179950 17995 Wrightson MD Final Report.doc Municipality of Kincardine 10 Engineer's Report, MD #13 — Wrightson, Branch B — 2011 February 22, 2011 may be assessed for injuring liability with respect to a drainage works to relieve the injury so caused to such other land or road. (3) The assessment for outlet liability and injuring liability provided for in subsections (1) and (2) shall be based upon the volume and rate of flow of the water artificially caused to flow upon the injured land or road or into the drainage works from the lands and roads liable for such assessments. (4) The owners of the lands and roads made liable to assessment only under subsection (1) or (2) shall neither count for nor against the petition required by section 4 unless within the area therein described. R. S.O. 1990, c. D.17, s. 23." The costs have been assessed to all the affected lands and roads, in accordance with the appropriate sections of the Act, generally following the Todgham Method'. This is a method or system of determining assessments that is accepted by the drainage engineers as being fair and equitable. The basics of this method are explained here, whereas the details of the assessments for this Drain are included in Appendix D. (a) Equivalent Areas — In order to conform to Section 23(3) of the Act, an "equivalent area factor" was applied to all lands within the drainage area. This factor is established for each parcel of land within the drainage area and is dependent on the particular characteristics of that land, the prime characteristics being land use and topography. In this way "...the volume and rate of flow of water artificially caused to flow...into the drainage works..." are established on a relative basis for "...the lands and roads liable for such assessments." The equivalent area factors for this Drain are as follows; under drainage land only 0.33, woodlands 0.5, agricultural land 1.0, residential lands 3.0, gravel roads 4.0 and paved roads 5.0. Using this information, an equivalent area summary table is prepared for the entire drainage area. (b) Sections of the Drain — Based on sub - drainage areas and property lines, the subject Drain or Drains are divided into various Sections for assessment purposes, normally with Section 1 being at the downstream end. (c) Costs for each Section — The total project cost for each section is calculated and includes all costs, such as; materials, construction, allowances, and administration. The total of these sectional costs must equal the total project cost including any special assessments made in accordance with Sections 24 and 26 of the Act. The sections and the associated costs are shown on the Sectional Costs table in Appendix D. (d) Benefit Assessment — To completely understand the assessment process, the reader must be aware of the definition of "benefit" contained in The Act. Standard practice is to make an assessment for benefit only to those properties upon which the work is actually done or to the properties adjacent to where the work is actually done, when the drain is located on or near the boundary between one or more properties. (e) Outlet Liability Assessment — An understanding of "outlet liability ", as defined in The Act, is also required to comprehend the assessment process. Standard practice is to make an assessment for outlet liability to any and all lands and roads that are R.J. Burnside & Associates Limited MCW179950 17995 Wrightson MD Final Report.doc Municipality of Kincardine 11 Engineer's Report, MD #13 — Wrightson, Branch B — 2011 February 22, 2011 within the drainage area since, in some manner, water from those lands will use all or part of the Drain as an outlet. (f) Direct Outlet Assessment — This term is used to describe the assessment for outlet made to those lands within each section of the Drain that outlet directly into that section. For example, if there are 15 equivalent hectares within the sub - drainage area of Section 3 of the Drain, these 15 equivalent hectares gain direct outlet to the Drain somewhere within the length of Section 3 and shall be assessed for the outlet obtained within that section. This assessment is not separately defined in the Act and is usually included with benefit when assessments are calculated. (g) Variation of Assessments throughout the length of the Drain — When engineers calculate assessments, they must decide (1) what portion of the cost of each section will be assessed as benefit and direct outlet to the land upon which the Drain is being constructed and (2) what portion will be assessed as outlet to the lands and roads upstream of that section. It is generally accepted that the benefit and direct outlet portion of a downstream section is comparatively low, since most of the capacity of the Drain is being provided as outlet for the upstream lands. Conversely then, the benefit and direct outlet portion of an upstream section is normally high, since most of the capacity there is being provided for the land upon which the Drain is being constructed. Therefore, normally, for a downstream section of the Drain, the portion of the cost assessed as benefit and direct outlet is low and the portion assessed as outlet is high; while, for an upstream section of the Drain, the portion of the cost assessed as benefit and direct outlet is high, and the portion assessed as outlet is low. Taken to the extreme, that is to the last upstream property in the drainage area, all of the cost of any work done on that property would be assessed as benefit and direct outlet, since there are no other lands upstream thereof that can be assessed for outlet. In this case, since much of the work can be considered as `maintenance', this theory may not apply exactly as described here. (h) Actual Assessment Calculations for a Typical Section of the Drain — The process used for the calculation of the assessments for each section of the Drain is generally the same. A brief description of this process follows. Reference to a typical "Sectional Assessment Worksheet" should assist the reader with this description. 1) Cost/Eq. Ha. from D/S — This figure is the cumulative outlet assessment per equivalent hectare that is brought forward from the previous section (where applicable). 2) Total Section Cost — This is the total sectional cost, as previously explained. 3) Specific Costs — These are costs for specific items that are considered to apply only to a particular property or road and not to all the lands within the drainage area. These costs can be Section 24 Assessments, Section 26 Assessments, or "specific" benefit assessments. These specific assessments are then posted to the particular property or road in the Summary Table and the total of them is deducted from the Total Section Cost to leave the "Remainder to Assess ". 4) Normal Outlet — At this point in the process, the engineer uses professional judgement and experience to establish the percentage of this "Remainder to Assess" that should be assessed as Normal Outlet to the lands and roads upstream of this section. The balance will then be the amount to be assessed as Normal Benefit and Direct Outlet to the lands and roads in this section. R.J. Burnside & Associates Limited MCW179950 17995 Wrightson MD Final Report.doc Municipality of Kincardine 12 Engineer's Report, MD #13 — Wrightson, Branch B — 2011 February 22, 2011 5) Equivalent Area Drained — This is the equivalent area that is upstream of the subject section of the Drain. The portion of the cost that has been determined to be assessed as outlet for this section is then divided by this equivalent area. This results in the amount per equivalent hectare that is to be assessed as outlet to those upstream lands and roads for this section. This amount is then transferred to the "Cumulative Cost/Eq. Ha. carried U /S" item at the bottom of the worksheet. 6) Remaining for Normal Benefit and Direct Outlet — This figure is the amount remaining to be assessed after subtracting the outlet assessment amount. 7) Direct Outlet — At this stage, the engineer uses professional judgement and experience to establish the length of this section of the Drain that is used by each parcel of land within the section. The calculation, as shown on the worksheet, is then made to determine the "Direct Outlet" assessment for each on these parcels. These "Direct Outlet" assessments are then transferred to the Summary Table. The "Total of Direct Outlet" amount is then subtracted from the previous sub -total to provide the amount "Remaining for Normal Benefit ". 8) Remaining for Normal Benefit — This figure is the Normal Benefit assessment that is levied against the lands within this section, again, based on the engineer's professional judgment and experience. It is then transferred to the appropriate location in the Summary Table. 9) Summary Table — In Section — This is the listing of the parcels of land within this section of the Drain. The assessments determined for each of these parcels are posted in this table. 10) Summary Table — U/S of Section — This is where the properties that use only this section of the Drain, and those downstream, are listed and the outlet assessments applicable to each are posted. These assessments are calculated by multiplying the equivalent area of each by the Cumulative Cost/Eq. Ha. carried U /S. 11) Sub -Total — This is the total of the assessments levied within this section of the Drain. 12) Cumulative Total — This is the total of all the assessments levied to this point on the Drain. (i) Initial Reconciliation of Total Assessments — When all sectional assessments have been completed, they are reconciled and the totals established per property. (j) Final Fairness Test — The engineer then reviews the reconciled totals from above, comparing each one with all of the others, to ensure that, in his opinion, each property has been dealt with fairly as compared with every other property. If any unfairness appears, this is adjusted out until the engineer is satisfied that all assessments are fair and in balance, having in mind the actual conditions in the field. (k) Schedule of Assessments — When the engineer is satisfied with the final assessments, the schedule of assessments is prepared. This is included in Appendix C of this Report. R.J.

As can be seen from these Sections, both the landowners and the Municipality have responsibilities to ensure that a Municipal Drain is properly maintained and not abused. Proper maintenance of the existing and proposed works described herein will be necessary to ensure that all parts continue to function properly. The maintenance and integrity of open drains and grassed waterways are especially important since these channels often provide an outlet for either the closed portions of the Municipal Drain or for private drainage systems. This maintenance should include regular inspections and necessary work along the entire length of the Drain and should ensure that all structures, tiles, open drains, sediment basins and grassed waterways remain unobstructed by debris or sediment and are cleaned on a regular basis. As well, any areas of washout, settlement, or erosion should be attended to immediately. Landowners involved with this Drain should make regular inspections of the portion on their property and immediately report any problems to the Municipality so that the Drainage Superintendent can take proper action. 10.2 Costs For Branch B, any future maintenance costs shall be distributed in accordance with the terms of the Drainage Act using only the outlet assessment portion of the Assessments in Appendix C, until such time as this schedule may be adjusted in accordance with the Act. 10.3 Road Crossing The road crossing and catch basins that are part of Branch B shall be maintained entirely at the expense of the Roads Department for the Municipality of Kincardine, either by the Municipality or by the Drainage Superintendent.

Any such connections to the Municipal Drain tile must be made at the approved locations indicated in this Report, using the plugged inlets provided in the precast concrete junction boxes or catch basins. For Lot 21, Concession 2, the temporary connection to the upstream end of MD #13 Main Drain shall be removed and rerouted when any additional under drainage tile is installed in Lot 21, Concession 2 or if any operational problems are reported on the MD #13 Main Drain. The costs for such work will be the responsibility of the owner of Lot 21, Concession 2. Direct connections will not be permitted to the new Municipal Drain tile by the owners or their Contractors unless approved by the Drainage Superintendent. Connections not approved by the Drainage Superintendent may be removed and at the expense of the owner of the land upon which the connection was made. Respectfully submitted, R. J. Burnside & - td.

Burnside & Associates Limited MCW 179950 E.2.1 GENERAL DRAIN SPECIFICATION E.2.1.1 SCOPE OF SPECIFICATION This specification covers the general conditions governing the construction of a Municipal Drain under the most recent revision of The Drainage Act and amendments thereto. E.2.1.2 BENCHMARKS Benchmarks shall be set at intervals along the course of the work at locations shown on the accompanying plan and /or profile. The Contractor shall be held liable for the cost of re- establishing bench marks destroyed during the course of construction. Attention is drawn to Section 13(2) of The Drainage Act. E.2.1.3 STAKES /FLAGS Normally stakes, flags or markers are set 30 m apart throughout the course of the work, at all fences and property lines. The Contractor shall be held liable for the cost of replacing any stakes destroyed during construction. The drainage area shall be held liable for the cost of replacing any stakes destroyed prior to commencement of construction. E.2.1.4 LINE The drain shall run in straight lines throughout each course except at intersections, where it shall run on a curve of 15 m radius unless otherwise specified. If the work consists of the improvement of an existing open drain, then the centre line of the existing drain will be the centre line of the finished work unless otherwise specified. The centre line of the ditch shall be staked by the Contractor at least one complete course ahead of the digging, and all sloping and widening necessary shall be done in such a manner as to make the finished work uniform. E.2.1.5 PROFILE The drain is to be excavated to regular grade lines as shown on the profile. These grade lines show the bottom of the finished drain and are governed entirely by the benchmarks. In the case of tile drains, the grade line is that of the invert of the tile. The profile shows, for the convenience of the Contractor and others, the approximate depths from the surface of the ground to the grade at the point where the numbered stakes are set and from the average bottom of the present drain as taken at the time of survey, however, the bench marks must govern the construction. Open drains shall be brought to an even grade in the bottom so that water will not stand therein. A variation of 25 mm from the grade lines for tile drains shall be deemed sufficient reason to cause the work to be rejected and done over. E.2.1.6 CLEARING Brush, timber, logs, stumps, boulders or other obstructions located in or along the course of the work and any brush or debris along the banks of a drainage works shall be removed a sufficient distance to be clear of the excavation and the excavated material, or to the widths shown on the page entitled "Working Space ". No brush or trees are to be left inside the slopes of the drain PAGE 1 OF 13 whether they are located within the limits of the excavation or not. Brush cleared in accordance with the above shall be piled in a location and in a manner satisfactory to the Engineer for burning by the Owner. Unless otherwise specified or directed, brush piles shall be a minimum of 100 m apart and shall contain only cleared material. The Contractor will be permitted to cut standing timber along the course of a works, to the extent that may in the opinion of the Engineer be necessary to allow the safe and economical operation of the excavating equipment. Timber so cut shall be left on the property of origin for use of and disposal by the Owner. E.2.1.7 FENCES The Contractor will be permitted to remove fences to the extent necessary to allow him to construct the drain and dispose of any excess material according to specifications. Any such fences shall be carefully handled so as to cause no unnecessary damage. Such fences shall be replaced by the Contractor in as good a condition as found. The Contractor shall supply all material necessary to properly reconstruct any fences. The contractor shall not leave any fence open when he is not at work in the immediate area. Replacing of the fences shall be to the satisfaction of the Engineer. The Contractor shall be deemed to have met this specification when he obtains a statement in writing signed by the Owners of the land affected to the effect that the treatment of fences is satisfactory to them. E.2.1.8 TRIBUTARY OUTLETS During the construction of a tile drain, the Contractor shall afford opportunity to the Owners to connect tributary tile drains to the main drain if approved by the Engineer and at locations approved by the Engineer. During the construction of an open drain, the Contractor shall guard against damaging outlets of any tributary drains encountered. E.2.1.9 NOTIFICATION OF AGENCIES The Contractor shall, before performing any work affecting the land or property of the Ministry of Transportation & Communications, or any railway, telephone, pipeline company or public utility, obtain at his expense any necessary permits or approvals for the construction. The Contractor shall further agree to perform the work affecting such lands or property in accordance with the specifications of such Ministry, company or utility, as though said specifications were hereto attached. The Contractor shall provide 10 days written notice when construction will affect the right -of -way of a Municipality, County, the Ministry of Transportation & Communications, or a railway, as follows: if a Municipality, then the Road Superintendent or Public Works Foreman shall be advised; if a County, then the County Engineer shall be advised; if the Ministry of Transportation & Communications, then the District Engineer shall be advised; and if a railway, then the Area Engineer of the railway shall be advised. Copies of this notice shall be sent to the Drainage Engineer. E.2.1.10 STANDING CROPS AND LIVESTOCK Should a property owner wish to harvest any crop along an access route or within the construction working space as set out in the drainage report, then it shall be the responsibility of PAGE 2 OF 13 the property owner to do so in advance Construction. Provisions for the loss of, or damage to, crops along the access route or in the construction area ("Working Space ") have been made in the report and such loss or damage shall not be the liability of the Contractor. The Contractor shall contain his construction operations to the working space specified. As long as the construction operations are contained within the specified working space, the Contractor shall not be responsible for damages to crops along the course of the drain. It shall be the responsibility of each property owner to keep his livestock clear of the construction area upon 36 hours advance notice by the Contractor. After receiving proper notice, the Owner of the property upon which a drain is being constructed shall be liable for any loss or damage to livestock, the drain, drain materials, or the Contractor's equipment caused by his /her livestock. E.2.1.11 ROADS When the construction consists partly or wholly of the removal of a drain from a road allowance, such drain shall be constructed entirely on farm lands and excavated material shall be placed in the abandoned channel as directed by the Road Superintendent of the Corporation having authority over said road. If not otherwise directed, all work on any road allowance shall be performed as directed by the aforementioned Superintendent. Where it is necessary to replace any pavement it shall be done by, and at the expense of the authority having control over said road unless stated otherwise in the Special Information to Tenderers. E.2.1.12 DAMAGES LIABILITY The Contractor shall pay all losses, damages, or claims received by the Municipality and he shall protect and save harmless the Municipality against liability for any accidents, damages, casualty, losses, or claims directly or indirectly arising out of the Contract, or manner of performance thereof by the Contractor, his agents, employees or Subcontractor. The Contractor will be solely liable for all injuries and /or accidents to workmen, and /or public and /or livestock and /or property, and for any expenses or damages occasioned by fences being left open or improperly closed, insufficient guarding and lighting or bad workmanship at places where a drain runs along or across a road allowance or any negligence in carrying on the work. Any such expense or damages may be deducted from the amount of the contract or may be recovered by the Municipality from the Contractor or his sureties. The Municipality shall have the right to require the Contractor to furnish proof of his insurance against any or all liabilities prior to obtaining the contract. E.2.1.13 FINAL INSPECTIONS The Engineer will make a final inspection within 10 days after he has received notice in writing from the Contractor that the work is completed or as soon thereafter as weather conditions permit. All the work included in the contract must, at the time of final inspection, have the full dimensions and cross - sections called for in the plans and specifications. PAGE 3 OF 13 E.2.1.14 FAULTY MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP Neither the final certificate nor payment thereunder, nor any provision of the contract documents shall relieve the Contractor from responsibility for faulty materials or workmanship, which shall appear within a period of one year from the date of the Engineer's Completion Payment Certificate, and he shall remedy any defects thereto and pay for any damages to other work resulting therefrom which shall appear within such period of one year. E.2.1.15 TENDERS Unless otherwise stated at the time of tendering, tenders will be received and contracts awarded only in the form of a lump sum of the completion of the whole work in accordance with the drawings and specifications or of such portions as specified in the Tender Form. Where the Tender Form calls for unit prices for certain items, these unit prices shall only be used where it is necessary to make adjustments in the amount of work to be done. E.2.1.16 GUARANTEE The Contractor shall warrant the works for a period of one year from the date of issue of the completion certificate, against defects due to faulty workmanship and /or materials supplied by the Contractor. The Contractor shall remedy any defect and pay for any damage therefrom which may appear within such period and neither the final payment certificate nor the payments thereunder shall relieve him from such responsibility under, or by virtue of, the signed contract. E.2.1.17 MATERIALS As part of the work included in this contract, the Contractor shall place any and all material resulting from this project only in locations approved by the Engineer. The requirement shall apply to all materials, no matter who supplied said materials, and further, shall apply to any and all excess material remaining on site at the completion of the project. PAGE 4 OF 13 E.2.2 SPECIFICATION FOR CLOSED DRAINS E.2.2.1 MATERIALS 1. Concrete Drain Tile (CDT) - All CDT installed under these specifications shall be "Heavy Duty Extra Quality" meeting the latest revision of ASTM C412. The manufacturer shall provide the engineer with a copy of all available test results for the materials being shipped to the project site. The engineer shall have the right to order any additional tests he deems necessary to be performed on the tile taken from inventory prior to shipment from the manufacturer's plant. The cost of such additional tests shall be borne by the owner. 2. Plastic Drainage Tubing (PDT) - All PDT installed under these specifications shall be manufactured in accordance with the latest revision of the Drainage Guide for Ontario, as published by the Ministry of Agriculture and Food. 3. High Density Polyethylene Pipe (HDPE) - All corrugated or smoothwall HDPE pipe installed under these specifications as culverts or as part of a new closed drain shall be manufactured in accordance with the latest revision of Ontario Provincial Standard Specification 1840. 4. Tile, tubing and pipe materials supplied by the contractor shall be approved by the engineer prior to being incorporated in the work. 5. The contractor shall be responsible for the unloading and placement of all materials required for the Municipal Drain construction. Such unloading and placement shall be undertaken in a manner acceptable to the engineer using only the specified and approved access routes. E.2.2.2 DRAIN GRADIENT AND VERIFICATION The proposed gradient shall be established using laser grade control equipment, cross -head boning rods together with horizontal sight -bars at stations above and below the point where the tile is being laid or other method acceptable to the engineer. If the engineer has not checked the tile, inspection points shall be left at intervals of not greater than 50 m for sections with gradients less than 0.5 % and at intervals of not greater than 30 m for sections with gradients above 0.5 %. Inspection points shall also be left at all structures and all changes in gradient. Other inspections points may be required from time to time as requested by the engineer. E.2.2.3 TILE LAYING INCLUDING TOPSOIL STRIPPING 1. In the case of the installation of concrete drain tile, and unless specified otherwise in the Special Information to Tenderers, the contractor shall strip the topsoil in the area PAGE 5 OF 13 of the tile trench prior to installing the new tile with the trencher as part of the work under the appropriate item and no extra payment will be made for this stripping. After installation, confirming gradient, blinding, and back filling of the trench, the topsoil shall be replaced throughout the entire length of the Drain. The Contractor shall take into consideration the settlement of the backfill material over the trench prior to replacing the topsoil. 2. All concrete drain tile shall be installed with a wheel -type trencher and each tile shall be laid firmly and carefully in a smooth bottomed trench so that successive tiles align both vertically and horizontally as tightly as possible; the maximum allowable space between successive tiles shall be 6 mm. ALL joints of the CDT MUST be completely wrapped with geotextile as part of the work under the appropriate item and no extra payment will be made for this wrapping. The wrap on each joint shall be a minimum of 300 mm wide and of sufficient length to exceed the outside diameter of the largest tile being wrapped by a minimum of 300 mm. Any joints /couplers installed between rolls of PDT shall also be wrapped with geotextile as part of the work. 3. The Contractor is reminded that the widths of the tile trenches are to be kept to a minimum. It is recommended that the minimum trench width be 300 mm greater than the outside diameter of the tile or 150 mm on each side of the tile being installed. It is recommended that the maximum trench width be 600 mm greater than the outside diameter of the tile or 300 mm on each side of the tile being installed. 4. All plastic drainage tubing shall be installed with a self - propelled drainage plow. 5. All obstructions, dirt or foreign material shall be removed from the inside of the tile prior to laying. 6. Tile drains shall be constructed at an offset from, and parallel to, any existing ditch, defined watercourse or low run. The contractor shall exercise care not to disturb any existing tile drains which follow the same course as the new drain. E.2.2.4 RECONNECTION OF EXISTING TILE Normally, any subsurface drain encountered by the contractor when constructing a Municipal Drain under these specifications shall be reconnected to itself and not connected to the new Municipal Drain, unless directed otherwise by the engineer. The normal practice for reconnecting existing tile drains, up to and including 150 mm diameter, will be to hand compact uncontaminated sub -base material from the new trench bottom to the underside of the existing tile. After adequate consolidation has been achieved, approved, rigid pipe of adequate strength and sufficient size shall be connected to the existing tile in an approved manner. This connection shall be made where the existing tile is sound. When completing backfilling at such a location, the contractor shall take sufficient care to ensure that the new connecting pipe is not damaged. Any tile drains encountered which are larger than 150 mm in diameter may, if approved by the engineer, have their upstream end connected to the new drain, using only a PAGE 6 OF 13 proper fitting, and the downstream end of said tile shall be plugged to prevent entry of foreign material into the said tile. The contractor shall provide a unit price per connection and said unit price shall include the supply of all material, labour and equipment necessary to make the said connection. Further, the contractor shall notify the engineer and the affected landowner of any and all sub - surface drains encountered. E.2.2.5 TRENCH BACKFILLING As the laying of the tile progresses, partial filling or blinding shall be made at the sides of the trench sufficient to hold the tiles securely in place. The Contractor shall take special in placing the remainder of the excavated material to carefully backfill the trench and any excess backfill material shall be mounded over the trench such that future settlement and compaction around the new tile can occur without creating a depression over the width of the trench. The Contractor shall not operate construction equipment over the backfilled trench, except as noted. Care shall be exercised in backfilling the trench to see that no stone or boulder capable of damaging the tile is used in the backfill material adjacent to the tile. In no case shall stones having a diameter greater than 150 mm be used in backfill material within 300 mm of the tile. The contractor shall backfill any open tile trenches at the end of each working day except for inspection points as specified. E.2.2.6 TRENCH CROSSINGS The contractor shall not cross the backfilled trench with any construction equipment or vehicles, except at only ONE designated crossing location on each property. The contractor shall ensure that the bedding and backfill material at this designated crossing location is properly placed and compacted so as to adequately support the equipment and vehicles that may cross the trench. The contractor may undertake any other approved work to ensure the integrity of the tile at the crossing location. The contractor shall insure that no equipment or vehicles are allowed to travel along the length of the trench. The contractor shall be entirely responsible for any damage to the new the caused by him, his subcontractors, or his employees while undertaking the work. E.2.2.7 OUTLET PROTECTION The outlet end of a tile drain shall normally consist of a 6 m length of rivetted corrugated steel pipe fitted with a rodent proof grating which is hinged at the top to allow the exit of foreign material from the tile. Unless otherwise specified, the end of the corrugated steel pipe shall be protected with the type of riprap on geotextile as specified by the engineer from a point 500 mm above the ditchbottom on the opposite side of the ditch, across the ditchbottom, and for the full height of the ditch sideslope where the pipe is located. The minimum width of this riprap shall be equal to the outside diameter of the outlet pipe plus 2 metres. PAGE 7OF13 E.2.2.8 JUNCTION BOXES Unless specified otherwise, junction boxes (JB) shall be supplied by a precast manufacturer meeting the engineer's approval. An "approximate elevation of top" of each JB has been indicated on the "Structure Details" chart; however, each JB shall be placed onsite such that the top extends a minimum of 200 mm above the ground surface. The exact horizontal and vertical location of the basins in the field shall be as directed by the engineer. All JB shall have a plugged tile or blind inlet, set at 100 mm above the elevation of the outlet, placed in all sides not used by the drain. Plugged inlets must be of a size capable of connecting a pipe with a minimum inside diameter of 200 mm. Suitable grouting material (concrete, unless specified otherwise) shall be placed around all pipes connected to the box. In addition, all grouted connections shall be completely wrapped with geotextile (similar to a wrapped joint). Geotextile shall be placed in the joints between all sections of the box and around the full perimeter of the box at these joints. Galvanized, heavy duty, flat -top grates, equal to those provided by Coldstream Concrete Limited, shall be supplied for all JB, unless specified otherwise. Grates shall be fastened to the structure using non - corrosive fasteners as recommended by the OFSA. Buried junction boxes shall be pre- benched with no sump and shall have 150 mm thick solid concrete tops. Post and sign type markers shall be supplied and installed at each junction box. E.2.2.9 CATCHBASINS Unless specified otherwise, all JB specifications (listed above) shall apply to catchbasins (CB). Where ditchinlet catchbasins (DICB) are called for, the slope of the top shall be 2H:1 V, unless specified otherwise. An "approximate elevation of top" of each CB has been indicated on the "Junction Box - Catchbasin Details" sheet; however, each CB shall be placed onsite such that the top does not extend above the ground surface. In the case of a DICB the lower side of the box shall be set as directed below the ground surface. Grates for both flat top and ditchinlet catchbasins shall be galvanized, birdcage type, equal to those provided by Coldstream Concrete Limited, unless specified otherwise. For a DICB, this shall be the three -sided protruding type. E.2.2.10 STRIPPING FOR DEEP TILE INSTALLATION Where the tile installation depth exceeds the digging or plowing depth of the contractor's equipment, the contractor shall undertake any stripping that may be necessary in a manner such that when restored, the topsoil returns uncontaminated to the top of the stripped area. This would normally mean that the topsoil would be stripped and piled separately from the subsoil. The contractor shall have regard for the working space provided for such stripping operations. Unless approved otherwise by the engineer prior to work being undertaken, PAGE 8 OF 13 stripping shall be done using a hydraulic excavator. The cost of any stripping shall be included in the price provided for the tile installation. E.2.2.11 STONE REMOVAL The contractor shall remove and dispose of any stones larger than 100 mm that remain in the working space after completion of construction.

E.2.3.2 EXCAVATED MATERIAL All excavated material removed from the traveled portion of the road and 1.3 m or the full width of the gravel shoulder, whichever is greater, on each side of the traveled portion shall be disposed of off the site by the Contractor in a location approved by the engineer. No excavated material shall be spread on the right -of -way without the written consent of the engineer. The excavated material from a trench beyond a point 1.3 m from the traveled portion or beyond the outside edge of the gravel shoulder may be replaced on the trench in the case of covered drains. E.2.3.3 BEDDING All pipes and tiles installed under this specification shall be carefully bedded so as to ensure uniform bearing of the pipe or tile throughout its entire length. Except where requiring concrete cradle or encasement, all pipes and tile shall be bedded in granular fill or as shown on the contract drawings. Bedding shall be hand placed, tamped and consolidated throughout. Granular fill and bedding shall be gravel or crushed stone having no particles over 20 mm in size, except where otherwise specified. Concrete cradle and concrete encasement shall be placed as shown on the drawings, and the concrete shall be 20 MPa. E.2.3.4 BACKFILLING The material and the method of backfilling the excavated area on the traveled portion of the right -of -way and for 1.3 m or the full shoulder width on each side shall conform to the following specifications, or as directed by the engineer and /or Road Superintendent. From the top of the bedding material to a point 300 mm below the existing grade of the road, backfill material shall be clean pit run gravel meeting O.P.S.S. Granular "B" or suitable sand cushion specification (maximum size stone -100 mm). The material shall be placed in lifts not to exceed 300 mm in depth and shall be thoroughly compacted with a mechanical vibrating compactor approved by the engineer. Compaction shall be of a degree satisfactory to the engineer. The top 300 mm of the excavation shall be filled with clean crushed gravel conforming to O.P.S.S. Granular "A" specifications (maximum aggregate -20 mm). The material shall be placed in lifts not exceeding 150 mm in depth and shall be thoroughly compacted with a PAGE 10 OF 13 mechanical vibrating compactor approved by the engineer. Compaction shall be of a degree satisfactory to the engineer. The finished grade of backfill material shall be flush with the existing roadway. If excavated material is replaced in the trench it shall be hand compacted in lifts not to exceed 300 mm. The finished grade of the backfill material shall be approximately 50 mm higher than the existing ground. E.2.3.5 ASPHALT PATCHING Where necessary, asphalt patching will be done by the Municipality. E.2.3.6 CATCHBASINS AND JUNCTION BOXES The type, location and the elevation of junction boxes, catchbasins and inlets on the right -of -way shall be as specified by the Engineer, and as indicated on the "Structure Details" chart. E.2.3.7 NOTICE Before commencing work on any right -of -way, the Contractor shall furnish at least 7 days notice in writing to the engineer or Road Superintendent having authority over said right -of -way. A copy of this notice shall also be sent to the Municipality's Drainage engineer. E.2.3.8 MAINTENANCE The Contractor shall maintain the road surface at the road crossing until the engineer has approved the work. Such maintenance shall include keeping the road surface free from pot- holes and the application of calcium chloride at the rate of two pounds per square meter to the finished surface for the entire width of the excavation. The Contractor shall give the engineer or Road Superintendent having authority over the road four days notice in writing that the work has been completed, and if the Drainage engineer has approved the work, the Contractor will no longer be responsible for maintenance of the said portion of the right -of -way. PAGE 11 OF 13 E2.4 SPECIFICATION FOR ROAD CROSSING - BORING METHOD E.2.4.1 When a drainage works crossing of a Municipal Road is to be carried out by the boring method, Y g the following specifications shall apply and will be rigidly enforced by the Municipality. 1. The Road Authority will supply no labour, equipment or materials for the construction of the road crossing unless indicated otherwise in the Special Information for Tenderers. 2. The pipe or casing used in the crossing shall be smoothwall welded steel pipe with a minimum wall thickness as specified in the Special Information for Tenderers. 3. The pipe shall be of a sufficient length so that during placement no part of any excavation shall be closer to the edge of the pavement than 2 m and the slope of the excavation from the top to the bottom shall be 1 metre vertical to 1 m horizontal (1:1). (See Item 5 — Auger Pit). 4. The pipe or casing shall be placed by means of continuous flight augering inside the casing and simultaneous jacking to advance the casing immediately behind the tip of the auger. Complete augering of a tunnel slightly larger than the pipe and placing the entire length by pulling or jacking after completion of the tunnel WILL NOT BE ACCEPTABLE. 5. The Auger Pit — The pit excavated to accommodate the boring machine shall be constructed such that the edge of the pit shall not be closer than 2 m to the edge of the pavement. The slope of the pit from the top edge at the shoulder to the bottom of the pit shall not be steeper than 1 metre vertical to 1 metre horizontal (1:1). Shoring, sheeting, etc. shall be in accordance with all governing regulations and Acts. The pit shall be left open for an absolute minimum length of time and if at all possible work should be so scheduled so that the excavation, placement of pipe and backfilling takes place in one working day. If this is not possible every effort should be made to schedule the work so that the pit is not left open for more than one day before and one day after the boring operation. 6. During excavation every effort should be made to place the top 300 mm of soil (topsoil) in a separate pile for replacement on top on completion of the backfill operation. If this is not possible or practical the Contractor shall import and place a minimum of 150 mm of good quality topsoil over the excavated and backfilled area. In either case the area over the excavation shall be seeded with a good quality grass seed mixture to the requirements of the Road Authority. The finished work shall be left in a clean and orderly condition flush or slightly higher than the adjacent ground PAGE 12 OF 13 so that after settlement it will conform to the surrounding ground. Excess earth (if any) shall NOT be spread on the road allowance without the express written consent of the Road Authority but shall be hauled away. 7. The Contractor shall, at his expense supply, erect and maintain suitable and adequate barricades, flashing lights, warning signs and /or flagmen to the satisfaction of the Engineer to adequately warn and protect the motoring public. 8. The type, location, and the elevation of the top of catchbasins, inlets and junction boxes on the right -of -way shall be as required by the Road Authority. 9. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL GIVE THE ROAD AUTHORITY AT LEAST 7 DAYS NOTICE IN WRITING BEFORE HE COMMENCES ANY WORK ON THE RIGHT - OF -WAY OF ANY MUNICIPAL ROAD. NO WORK SHALL COMMENCE ON THE RIGHT -OF -WAY UNTIL WRITTEN CONSENT HAS BEEN GIVEN.
