Starting in late 2012, odour complaints have been reported to the MOE and the
Township from residents that live near the BioGRID. Township staff met with the
local Ministry of the Environment staff on 2 occasions. We were asked to
communicate proposed action plans to the MOE on how best to mitigate and
prevent the odors from occurring. It is believed the odours are coming from the
large digestate tank. The stagnant liquid warms in the sun and begins to grow
algae. Odours occur as the algae begin to breakdown. The dead algae give off
the odor as it decomposes. It is expected the problem can be solved by injecting
air into the liquid, creating an aerobic decomposition of the bacteria. As a
preventative measure, staff has investigated alternative pricing for an aeration
system that could be installed in the large tank.
The following recommendation was made:
Motion Number: BIO 026-2014
Moved by: Member Bob Pringle
Seconded by: Member Dwight Burley
Be it resolved that the Georgian Bluffs-Chatsworth BioGRID Joint Board receives
the report prepared by Peter Paquette, Director of Operations, recommending
the supply and installation of an aerating system, to prevent odours from
occurring in the BioGRID large holding tank, be approved at a cost of $15,000.00
plus HST. And further, it is recommended that this expense be unfinanced for
the year 2014.

The 2014 BioGRID draft budget has not yet been adopted; however the Councils
of the Townships of Chatsworth and Georgian Bluffs have each adopted its
respective budget. The Board provided direction to the Treasurer so that a
budget may be brought back to the next meeting for approval
2)
We have lost one of our suppliers to a co-operative and until a highenergy supply can be obtained, the BioGRID is operating at approximately
50%.

Strategic Plan:
3.1
Operate water and waste water systems to maintain a high standard of public health and
safety, protect the environment and ensure long term financial sustainability.
Summary:
On September 6th, 2014 staff arrived on the Biodigester site to find the Mesh that
contains the vulcanized rubber membrane over the Biodigester had been damaged
during a severe wind and thunder storm. The tear in the mesh was observed to be more
than 20 feet long. The damaged mesh was installed 2 years ago and does not have a
warranty. Staff proceeded to obtain quotes from 2 specialty mesh suppliers. Quotes are
summarized below. Staff proceeded to make temporary repairs to the mesh by sewing a
rope through the torn portion of the mesh opening. The bio was then brought back on
line.

Financial Considerations:
The cost of the repair will be coming out of the 2014 repair and maintenance budget.
Recommendation:
That; the Joint BIO Board accept the report submitted by Peter Paquette, Director of
Operations and further that; the Joint Board instruct the Director of Operations to
purchase new mesh as described above as Option 2. Supplied by InCord N815 Nylon
mesh at a cost of $3,654.00us plus taxes, shipping and currency exchange..
Submitted for the joint Boards consideration and direction.

Director of Operations.
Strategic Plan:
3.2
Manage solid waste to protect public health and minimize environmental impact through
waste reduction, diversion, recycling and re-use.
Summary:
In 2013 WSP (Genivar) was contracted by the Township to complete an engineering
design that included improvements the existing facilities at the Biogrid site. The final
engineering fees for the work were over the estimate. Subsequently, only part of the
fees were paid at that time. The Joint board has been withholding the remaining fees
until a settlement was reached.
In November of 2013 Staff met with WSP to discuss this issue. It was decided that WSP
would review the digester and mechanical process provide a review summary and offer
suggestions/ recommendations on how to better operate the facility with the existing
equipment. This service was to be provided free of charge. The township agreed to pay
all outstanding Engineering fees for the design work after the inspection was completed.
Comments:
The inspection of the BIOGRID facility by WSP was completed in November 2014 by
Chris Wilson P. Eng. Please see attached inspection summary. Recommendations in the
summary are for the committees consideration. Staff will present any capital
improvements suggested by the engineer at the 2015 budget meeting early in 2015.
Financial Considerations:
The municipality has been holding payment of the outstanding engineering fees until
the evaluation was complete. All outstanding engineering fees will be paid as soon as
possible, as per the resolutions passed by the joint board in 2014 that instructed staff to
pay the engineering fees.
Recommendation:
Be it resolved that the Georgian Bluffs-Chatsworth BioGRID Joint Board receive the
report from Peter Paquette, Director of Operations for information.
Respectfully submitted,
Peter Paquette,
Director of Operations

The issue with the outlet trough from the Drum Screen plugging

Automatic control of polymer injection is not possible with current
setup as material source is weak in solids content. Sources of higher
solids content are required. Further review into the issue should be
explored to optimize polymer injection.
Water supply piping to Drum Screen increased to 2" in building

As an additional recommendation, and since the generator is run on

Temperature Detectors) embedded in the stator windings with
protection 49 (Stator Temperature Protection). This relay protects the
stator winding in case of high winding temperature and is useful for
preventive maintenance.
Since the generator was replaced and modifications were
completed, there has been very few utility trips.
Generator exhaust pipe within the generator housing was replaced
with 1/2" steel piping. No issues since.

2.0
Environment
Accountability
Communicate actively and transparently while providing a high level of customer service
to ratepayers, associations, business interests, visitors and others involved in Township
initiatives.
2.1
Operate water and waste water systems to maintain a high standard of public health and
safety, protect the environment and ensure long term financial sustainability.
Summary:
Georgian Bluffs and Chatsworth Council have met to discuss the current and future
operations of the Biodigester. In preparation of the upcoming Joint Meeting, staff would
like direction as to what information (and format) is required.
Comments:
Staff is recommending that the Board consider the following financial impact issues and
provide staff with direction (where required).
1. Budget
a) A budget has not been adopted by the Joint Board for 2014; however, the two
respective Municipalities have adopted their respective budgets, including a
set amount to transfer to the Biodigester Board.
b) The Biodigester Board ended 2013 with an operating deficit, which was to be
funded from 2014.
c) The draft budget has been amended with reduced revenue
2. Product
a) Increase in septage product is beneficial. Consideration to reduce or eliminate
tipping fees will require revising the fees bylaw for the respective
municipalities, as well as the projected revenue.
b) Increase in organic waste and FOG (fats, oils and grease) products is
beneficial. Consideration to reduce or eliminate tipping fees will require
C:\Committees\BIO\Staff Reports\2014\Financial Impact July 14 2014
revising the fees bylaw for the respective municipalities, as well as the
projected revenue.
c) Revenue for septage produced within the municipal boundaries, to be
invoicing to the residents (included in the tax rate). The residents will pay the
hauler direct.
d) Accountability at the site regarding the amount of product received for
invoicing and tracking purposes.
Financial Consideration:
The financial impact will vary based on the direction given by the Board.
Recommendation:
That the 2014 Financial Impact report be received, and direction provided.
