Project Location Client Description

Quarry Strategy Regional Municipality
of Ottawa-Carleton
Ontario Dibblee
Construction
Limited Comprehensive GIS databases were prepared in support of the aggregate planning process, including preparation of evidence for possible future Board hearings. These databases include planning information, surficial and bedrock mapping, hydrological data, aggregate demand, resource protection and aggregate reserves (existing and potential) and provide input for evaluation of existing licensed reserves and for selection and assessment of potential new aggregate extraction sites for licensing or protection.

Regional Aggregate Supply Model Regional Municipality
of Ottawa-Carleton
Ontario Dibblee
Construction
Limited Truck haul allocation models were established to evaluate landed aggregate transportation cost at any location and to evaluate the impact of quarry depletion/establishment and new highway transportation facilities in the regional aggregate supply model. Prepared technical evidence for possible future Board hearings.

Mineral Resource Evaluation
(Dibble Osgoode Quarry) Osgoode Twp.,
Regional Muncipality
