Section I – Items for Authority Action RES.#A187/16 - FLOOD INFRASTRUCTURE STATE OF REPAIR REPORT Report on the current state of repair of Toronto and Region Conservation

Authority’s flood infrastructure including major deficiencies, dam safety guidelines, risk management and repair projects.

Moved by: Jack Heath Seconded by: Linda Pabst WHEREAS Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) owns 11 dams and 15 flood control structures; AND WHEREAS TRCA is responsible for ensuring the safe operation of its flood infrastructure; AND WHEREAS TRCA's flood infrastructure is susceptible to deterioration through normal operations, aging and environmental conditions; AND WHEREAS TRCA identifies structure deficiencies through inspections and engineering investigations; AND WHEREAS the Canadian Dam Association (CDA) requires regular reporting of dam safety status to senior management and Authority members; THEREFORE LET IT BE RESOLVED THAT TRCA staff implement flood infrastructure repairs and studies according to the work plan outlined in this report; THAT TRCA request funding from both federal and provincial agencies to assist with implementation of major deficiency repairs once designs are complete; AND FURTHER THAT TRCA staff be permitted to make in-year adjustments to the 2016 -2018 work plan due to changing priorities and potential project delays as necessary, contingent upon reporting on these adjustments in 2018. CARRIED BACKGROUND At Authority Meeting #4/13, held on May 24, 2013, Resolution #A87/13 was approved as follows:

THAT the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) Flood Management Service Flood Infrastructure State of Repair Report be updated and reported to the Authority bi-annually.

The purpose of the Flood Infrastructure State of Repair Report is to document the current state of repair of TRCA-owned flood infrastructure and to outline the major capital improvement projects that have been implemented or are required in the future. Information on the process of identifying projects, funding sources and the regulatory framework for dam safety in Ontario is also included in this report. The report was delayed until 2016 as three major dam safety reviews were not finalized until August 2016. Dam safety reviews provide detailed condition assessments, outline the deficiencies discovered during the investigation of the structure and are critical in identifying future capital projects.

559

TRCA’s Building The Living City Strategic Plan states in Strategy 2, Objective 4 that TRCA will oversee the “reduction or elimination of existing flood risk within our jurisdiction”. Conservation authorities are mandated, under Section 21 of the Conservation Authorities Act, to ensure conservation, restoration and responsible management of Ontario’s water resources. Specifically Section 21 states that conservation authorities are empowered to;

to erect works and structures and create reservoirs by the construction of dams or otherwise;

to control the flow of surface waters in order to prevent floods or pollution or to reduce the adverse effect thereof;

As part of this mandate, TRCA chooses to develop and maintain programs to prevent loss of life and property damage from flooding and erosion hazards. To meet this objective TRCA has constructed many flood control structures to reduce flood risk in Flood Vulnerable Area’s (FVA’s). TRCA currently owns 11 dams and 15 flood control structures that include channels, dykes and flood walls. TRCA’s dam inventory consists of 11 dams of which four provide flood protection. The other dams are historical mill and industrial dams acquired through land acquisitions. TRCA dams range in age between 40-80 years and most are in need of major capital improvements to meet current dam safety guidelines. Internationally, there have been several large dam failures over the last several years that have resulted in loss of life and substantial property damage. This underscores the importance of having a robust dam maintenance program at TRCA. TRCA’s channels, berms and other structures are also experiencing some deterioration. For example, some TRCA channels have reduced flood capacity due to the accumulation of sediment, establishment of vegetation, failed concrete panels and erosion of channel banks. These structures were built between the 1950’s and 1980’s and the design life of these types of structures is typically around 50 years and some structures are in need of some major repairs to extend their functional life. Recent storms such as the July 8, 2013 and the August 19, 2005 events have demonstrated the critical importance of having properly maintained flood channels so that flood conveyance is maximized and the risk to the public is reduced. Over the last ten years TRCA has made significant investments to remediate its inventory of flood protection structures in order to meet its objectives of protecting the public from flood damage. TRCA is committed to continued improvement to all dams, channel and dyke systems that it manages. This report will discuss TRCA’s Engineering Services section, the Lakes and Rivers Improvement Act (LRIA) Dam Safety Guidelines, risk management and future capital requirements. The Flood Infrastructure State of Repair report will be updated in 2018 and will document completed flood infrastructure projects from the period and outline the work plan for the following two years. TRCA’s Engineering Services Engineering Services is comprised of several sections including Water Resource Engineering, Hydrogeology, Flood Infrastructure, Hydrometrics and Flood Risk Communications. The core objective of Engineering Services is focused on reducing the flood risk to life and property within TRCA’s jurisdiction by providing professional guidance, reliable data and support to TRCA's municipal/regional partners and the public. Engineering Services monitors watershed conditions 24/7 so TRCA can issue flood messages to partner agencies so appropriate actions can be implemented to reduce flood risk to the public.

560

A key part of Engineering Services role in reducing flood risk is to operate, monitor and maintain various flood protection structures. The Flood Infrastructure and Hydrometrics section conduct daily, monthly and annual inspections on each structure depending on the level of risk and the technical standard of surveillance. For example, large dams with high associated risks are required to have daily, monthly and annual inspections. Small, lower risk structures such as flood protection channels are required to undergo only an annual inspection. Starting in 2016, in order to further reduce risk, TRCA has increased surveillance of small dams so that they will receive monthly and annual inspections. All flood control channels and dykes are inspected annually. The results of these inspections are used to determine if the structure is safe and to prioritize capital works to maintain the safety of these structures. Lakes and Rivers Improvement Act In 2011, the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) introduced the Lakes and Rivers Improvement Act Administrative Guide, Technical Bulletins and Best Management Practices Guide (LRIA). These documents are based on criteria developed by MNRF and the Canadian Dam Association (CDA), and provide guidelines for the safe design, construction, management and operation of dams in Ontario. It is a resource for engineers, operators and owners to use when assessing the safety of a dam. The LRIA Guidelines are not legislated, but rather a document that defines best management practices and therefore the minimum standard of safety for dam owners. A critical component of the LRIA is the Dam Safety Review (DSR). The DSR is an in depth engineering study of a dam. Components of a DSR include a geotechnical analysis of stability, a public safety review, a hydro-technical review, a structural inspection and other investigations. Based on the results of the DSR, the dam is given a Hazard Potential Classification (HPC). The HPC determines the risk to the public if a dam were to fail. Dams with higher risks are required to meet more stringent and conservative engineering standards. Attachment 1 is from the LRIA Classification and Inflow Design Flood Technical Bulletin and outlines the criteria for determining the HPC of dams. HPC’s for all TRCA owned dams can be found in Attachment 2. TRCA’s four largest dams are located in urban areas. As such, a failure of one of these dams would have a significant impact on downstream populations. For example, the 2011 Dam Safety Review of G. Ross Lord Dam determined that a failure of the dam could put about 3,000 persons at risk and cause approximately $1.3 billion in property damage. Proper management and maintenance of these dams is critical for public safety. TRCA has adopted the LRIA into its dam safety program and is in the process of upgrading each structure to meet the guidelines contained in the LRIA where possible. However, there are technical difficulties in bringing each structure up to meet modern design guidelines. Older dams were constructed using the engineering principles of the period in which they were built and may not meet newer requirements unless substantial modifications are made. In particular, old legacy dams (such as mill and fishery dams) were built without any proper engineering or construction techniques that may never be able to meet LRIA guidelines. In these cases options are limited to decommissioning the dam or increased risk management and tolerance.

561

Risk Management for TRCA Flood Infrastructure The Canadian Dam Association defines risk as “the consequence of an adverse event and the probability of such an event occurring”. It is recognized in the dam safety community that if an infinite amount of money was available, the risk around dams could be reduced to zero. For reasons of economics this is not possible. Using modern engineering analysis and techniques, however, it is possible to greatly reduce risk. When hazards are greater for a particular structure, the safety requirements are proportionately more rigorous to offset the increased risk. The Flood Infrastructure and Hydrometrics section evaluates each structure and categorizes them in terms of the "impact of failure" and the "probability of failure". Impact of failure is based on the expected damage to life and property should the structure fail. The probability of failure is based on the condition of the structure and estimates the likelihood of a deficiency causing the structure to fail. TRCA uses Hatch Energy Limited’s rating system for ranking the condition of a structure. Hatch Energy is an international consulting firm that specializes in dam engineering and has been retained by TRCA for several dam safety projects. Each structure is given a ranking that ranges from “Satisfactory” to “Unsatisfactory” which helps prioritize capital improvements. Attachment 3 lists the impact of failure and the probability of failure for all TRCA flood structures and outlines the criteria for ranking structures. In order to reduce risk and meet due diligence requirements, TRCA performs the following:

1. TRCA evaluates each structure through field inspections and determines what the impacts would be if the structure failed or performed below its design criteria.

2. The structure is inspected to identify any deficiencies that could cause the structure to fail. Channels and other flood control devices can fail by erosion, overtopping and blockages. Deficiencies that can lead to a dam failure are also known as “failure modes”. A failure mode is the process by which dam collapse happens. Dams have three main types of failure modes:

Overtopping - where the dam is unable to pass incoming flows and the dam overtops leading to a breach of the embankment;

Collapse - this can occur because of earthquake, overloading of the structure due to poor design and other component failures;

Internal Erosion - where embankment materials are leached from the dam embankment in uncontrolled seepage through the structure.

3. A repair to mitigate the potential failure mode or hazard is designed and implemented when funding becomes available. Engineering Services is in the process of ensuring DSR’s on all TRCA dams are up to date. The findings contained in these DSR’s helps TRCA understand what deficiencies exist at the dams and how to prioritize the repairs. It should be noted that there are limitations to determining risk. The complexity of forces acting on a structure is difficult to quantify and therefore determining the probability of failure is difficult. Experience, training and engineering judgment are used to assess the stability and performance of flood infrastructure. But the process for evaluating structures is somewhat subjective. With the limitations of current inspection techniques it is not possible to say with certainty that a structure will or will not fail. Inspections can identify potential failure modes but the complexity of the loads and stresses placed upon structures cannot be precisely measured and so there is a degree of unpredictability in evaluating them.

562

Current Flood Infrastructure Funding TRCA is moving forward with improving the performance and reliability of its flood infrastructure through capital improvements. Current annual funding for all operation, maintenance and surveillance of flood infrastructure totals approximately $840,000 from all TRCA funding partners. These funds are used for operations, preventative maintenance, inspections, dam safety studies and minor capital works. Special funding requests for specific, large scale construction projects are used and will continue to be required in the future once the appropriate studies and designs are completed.

Matching Funding from the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry The Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry is assisting conservation authorities to undertake maintenance activities throughout Ontario with the Water and Erosion Control Infrastructure Program (WECI). Under this program, repairs and studies undertaken on structures are eligible for 50% matching funds from the Province of Ontario. Projects reviewed and prioritized by MNRF and only the highest ranked projects are awarded grants. TRCA applies for WECI funding every year for both repairs and studies. The WECI program has become a critical tool for funding capital improvement projects.

Priorities may change on a year to year basis as previously undiscovered deficiencies may be found during the annual inspection cycle. The ability of TRCA to respond to serious deficiencies in flood infrastructure depends on stable year-to-year funding as large capital remediation projects can take several years to complete depending on design, permits and availability of contractors. Major Dam Deficiencies – Future Capital Projects The recent Dam Safety Reviews on Stouffville Dam (2014), Claireville Dam (2016) and Milne Dam (2016) has identified several major dam deficiencies that will require major capital funding to repair. These major deficiencies are complicated and will require additional engineering studies to determine the best course of action for implementing solutions. The probability of having these deficiencies lead to catastrophic failure is low as the triggers of the failure modes are extreme floods and seismic events. The results of these recent DSR’s are summarized below. Stouffville Dam

The emergency spillway could potentially erode during high flow events and cause the earth embankment to fail.

The concrete spillway has significant structural issues.

Preliminary investigations indicate that the embankment is susceptible to failure during extreme earthquake events due to a weak sand layer under the foundation of the dam.

564

Milne Dam The dam’s spillway capacity is too small for extreme events and could overtop and fail.

Spillway retaining walls do not meet loading requirements.

Stilling basin may not meet stability requirements. Claireville Dam

The dam’s spillway capacity is too small for extreme events and could overtop and fail.

Spillway retaining walls do not meet loading requirements.

Energy dissipation in the stilling basin is inadequate and may undermine the foundation of the dam during high flows.

The right downstream wing wall is failing and needs to be stabilized.

The five radial arm gates are due for major maintenance including corrosion protection, motor replacement, fan brake replacement, operator safety upgrades and trunnion bearing maintenance.

These are significant deficiencies that fall outside what would be considered normal lifecycle maintenance in that the original design is inadequate to meet current safety guidelines. Major capital improvements will be required to eliminate risk to the public. Over the next two years TRCA will be conducting detailed technical analyses of these deficiencies to determine the most cost effective, practical and efficient means of reducing or eliminating the risk. Once best practice solutions are finalized TRCA will engage funding partners for assistance in implementing these major capital works. Attachment 3 lists all known major deficiencies with TRCA dams and channels. CONCLUSION TRCA has made significant progress in upgrading the condition of its flood infrastructure over the last ten years. Numerous projects have been undertaken to restore flood channels and increase dam safety, redundancy and reliability. Thorough DSR’s and engineering studies have helped TRCA understand how the structures rank in terms of risk to the public and how to mitigate this risk. TRCA’s Flood Infrastructure staff will continue to receive regular training in dam surveillance and public safety. New dam safety guidelines are available to better manage structures for performance and safety and TRCA is developing an official Dam Safety Management policy to guide the decision making process. This policy should be completed and finalized in the spring of 2017. TRCA’s inventory of flood infrastructure is aging and in some cases has exceeded its expected functional life. There are many forces and natural stresses acting upon these structures that reduce their effectiveness in preventing flooding. TRCA is monitoring these structures and performing capital improvements as they become necessary. However, some mitigation projects are very large in scope and will require substantial funding. Many future projects will take multiple years to complete because of the complex engineering, design and approval process required for flood infrastructure repairs. Provincial funding opportunities such as the WECI program will be critical for undertaking these large projects. TRCA will also look to federal programs such as the National Disaster Mitigation Program (NDMP) for funds to undertake these repairs.

565

Flooding remains a serious threat to the GTA. Weather is unpredictable and extreme events can happen at any time. Climate change may increase the likelihood of such events. Extreme events combined with the dense urbanization of TRCA's watersheds increase the stresses placed upon TRCA’s flood infrastructure. To respond to this threat, TRCA will ensure that flood infrastructure is performing at the highest level of protection. Rigorous monitoring, well designed repairs and stable funding will ensure that TRCA’s flood infrastructure will continue to provide protection from future extreme storm events.

Notes:

1. Incremental losses are those losses resulting from dam failure above those which would occur under the same conditions (flood,

earthquake or other event) with the dam in place but without failure of the dam.

2. Life safety. Refer to Technical Guide – River and Streams Systems: Flooding Hazard Limits, Ontario Ministry of Natural

Resources, 2002, for definition of 2 x 2 rule. The 2 x 2 rule defines that people would be at risk if the product of the velocity and the

depth exceeded 0.37 square metres per second or if velocity exceeds 1.7 metres per second or if depth of water exceeds 0.8

metres. For dam failures under flood conditions the potential for loss of life is assessed based on permanent dwellings (including

habitable buildings and trailer parks) only. For dam failures under normal (sunny day) conditions the potential for loss of life is

assessed based on both permanent dwellings (including habitable dwellings, trailer parks and seasonal campgrounds) and

transient persons.

568

3. Property losses refer to all direct losses to third parties; they do not include losses to the owner, such as loss of the dam, or

revenue. The dollar losses, where identified, are indexed to Statistics Canada values Year 2000.

4. An HPC must be developed under both flood and normal (sunny day) conditions.

5. Evaluation of the hazard potential is based on both present land use and on anticipated development as outlined in the pertinent

official planning documents (e.g. Official Plan). In the absence of an approved Official Plan the HPC should be based on expected

development within the foreseeable future. Under the Provincial Policy Statement, ‘designated growth areas’ means lands within

settlement areas designated in an official plan for growth over the long-term planning horizon (specifies normal time horizon of up

to 20 years), but which have not yet been fully developed. Designated growth areas include lands which are designated and

available for residential growth in accordance with the policy, as well as lands required for employment and other uses (Italicized

terms as defined in the PPS, 2005).

6. Where several dams are situated along the same watercourse, consideration must be given to the cascade effect of failures when

classifying the structures, such that if failure of an upstream dam could contribute to failure of a downstream dam, then the HPC of

the upstream dam must be the same as or greater than that of the downstream structure.

7. The HPC is determined by the highest potential consequences, whether life safety, property losses, environmental losses, or

cultural-built heritage losses.
