Observations and Recommendations. Through the experience gathered and with technical support and recommendations from the laboratory itself, the market surveillance authorities involved in this project have made a number of observations and recommendations. More information can be found within chapter 8 of this report.
Observations and Recommendations. 8.1 Technical Observations and Recommendations in relation to the European Standard EN 14988:2006+A1:2012
Observations and Recommendations. Lab is located in the store area and equipment as per list enclosed is found and installation was done. The lab size is too small & there is no proper availability of working space to perform tests.
Observations and Recommendations. Lab is located in the store area and Equipment work performance could not be checked as there was no power supply. Lab has been provided with 2 Phase Electric Supply whereas some Lab Equipments need 3 Phase Electric Supply. Lab size is small and not comfortable. Contractor has assured that these deficiencies will be rectified within 15 days.
Observations and Recommendations. 2.3.1 Observations are taken from ground level only, within the curtilage of the Site and publicly-accessible areas where this can be done safely and without undue difficulty. Binoculars may be used to support visual surveys.
2.3.2 Unless stated otherwise, the inspection is limited to visual examination of the subject trees from ground level only.
2.3.3 Surveyors will not walk along the carriageway outside the Site unless they consider it is safe to do so.
2.3.4 Surveyors will not walk along the carriageway inside the Site unless it is safe to do so. Unsafe examples would include steep banks close to road, land adjoining highways with no footpath.
2.3.5 The inspection cannot guarantee that defects on top of branches or not visible from the ground will be identified (International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) Level 1 – Limited Visual Assessment). Individual trees will be plotted, and details recorded. A probe and or mallet may be used where conditions indicating the need to do so are visible (ISA Level 2 - Basic Assessment). The result of such further findings will be noted on the tree record.
2.3.6 Tree dimensions, age range and future growth are visually estimated and approximate.
2.3.7 Binoculars, diameter tapes and nylon or rubber sounding mallets may be used, at the surveyor’s discretion, to support visual surveys.
2.3.8 Identification of fungi, insects, or tree disorders is based on field observations at the time of survey and does not include a laboratory analysis (unless specifically requested by the Client).

Observations and Recommendations. The provisions that have been picked from the above policy, action plans and legislation documents have issues indirectly touching on GG&CE but are silent on this emerging concept. Awareness creation is therefore necessary. Amendments required at policy and legislative level in order to have GG&CE incorporated in them.
Observations and Recommendations. The assessment of Subdivision Xxxxx considered herein has provided the following insights: This form of security in relatively new in Ontario for municipal use. There are a limited number of municipalities presently allowing for this form of security. Standard security remains a Letter of Credit. Unlike Letters of Credit which have fairly standard conditions, there are no standard Subdivision Bond conditions developed as of this time. As well, there have been no court cases where the wording of the agreement and the conditions included therein, have been tested. While this form of security is relative new, various legal advisors have indicated that, given the proper clauses contained within the Subdivision Bond, the financial coverage appears to be similar to a letter of credit. It is acknowledged that the additional process required for subdivision bonds to make the claim may delay the access to funds. Unlike many Ontario municipalities who include the requirements for servicing to be included in the subdivision agreement, Haldimand requires pre-servicing of the lands prior to entering into the subdivision agreement. This process reduces considerably the amount of financial risk to the County regarding servicing. As noted earlier, the County has accepted, on a trial basis, a subdivision bond for 90% of the subdivision warranty and uncompleted works with 10% being provided by a letter of credit. Given the lower level of risk resulting from the pre-servicing agreement, the balance of having both forms of security available provides a reasonable balance of security. Should the pre-servicing process not be followed and all servicing is contained within the subdivisions agreement, a higher amount to be secured through a letter of credit would be sought. Based on the above, the following recommendations are provided:
1. That, subject to the following conditions, Subdivision bonds be allowed as security for subdivision and site plan agreements for up to 90% of the infrastructure under warranty and for uncompleted works, with the residual provided by letter of credit.
2. The Subdivision Bond will provide clauses for the following
a. the obligation to pay is on demand, without regard to the equities between the parties and the payout is in cash up to the aggregate amount of the bond;
b. the bond is automatically renewed after one year and stays in effect unless the surety provides notice that it will not renew (in which case the municipality is given the...
Observations and Recommendations. Wastewater is generated at Arcon as a result of tray washing where water-based materials are used. It should be made clear to all employees that only water-based materials are allowed to be cleaned in the sink. Solvents and solvent based inks are to be reused in the plant. Signs can be posted stating such required practices.
Observations and Recommendations. There was no indication from the areas surveyed that the 318/000 X. 00xx Xxxxxx property, formerly the Radium Dye Company, contains discrete sources of Ra-226 as determined by the following observations: • Gamma radiation levels were consistent with background, as discussed above. • The absence of observable gamma radiation anomalies is indicative that there are no discrete sources of Ra-226 present. • Risk of potential contamination on the site is low due to the history of the site and its redevelopment. Therefore, the recommendation to the NRC staff is that a more detailed scoping survey is not necessary at this time and NRC staff should not pursue additional action at the 000/000 X. 00xx Xxxxxx property.
