1.0 ProcessDescriptionThe Emergency Plan outlined in this document establishes the planned response actions that will betaken by personnel at the Sumac RidgeWind Project in the event of an emergency situation.

2.0 ObjectivesTo establish a pre planned set of actions to be taken in the event of an emergency. These actionswill minimize health risks to personnel and people in the surrounding community, as well asminimize any potential adverse impacts to the environment. It is intended that this plan make clearto all personnel the actions that they are required to take if an emergency situation develops.

3.0 AdministrationPaper copies of this Emergency Action Plan shall be maintained at the following locations at all times:

1. wpd Canada Project Site Trailer2. Each Contractor working on site

An electronic copy of this plan will also be accessible on wpd Canada's computer network. This planwill be reviewed upon implementation, whenever revisions are made, and at least annually by wpdCanada Corporation personnel for the duration of construction activity.

4.0 TrainingAll wpd Canada Corporation employees at the facility shall receive training on this EmergencyResponse Plan prior to the start of the project and whenever it is modified or on at least an annualbasis. Contractors and visitors who are to enter operating areas of the facility will be trained onalarms, emergency assembly locations and evacuation procedures before they work at the site forthe first time, and at least annually thereafter. A listing of contractors with current training on thisplan will be maintained at the site for reference purposes.

5.0 Site LocationA 911 address will be assigned to the site; Sumac Ridge is located within the City of Kawartha Lakesnear the town of Bethany, within the former Township of Manvers, ON. The turbine locations havebeen generally sited within the area bounded by Highway 7A to the north, Pit Road and Wild TurkeyRoad to the east, Ballyduff Road to the south, and Highway 35 to the west. A switching station is to belocated immediately southwest of the intersection of Highway 35 and Gray Road.



6.0 EmergencyPreparednessDuring construction and prior to the commencement of operations the Construction Manager willensure that the following preparatory measures are undertaken:

1. Provide all contractors, workers and work vehicles with a copy of the emergency numbers andthe emergency response plan

2. Provide all workers with the location of the First Aid Station (Trailer on site)3. The First Aid Station will be adequately supplied as per the Workplace Safety & Insurance

Board (WSIB) Regulation 1101 for 5 to 15 workers see (Appendix Two)4. Ensure that there are an adequate number of First Aiders on site at all time5. Provide all workers with the location of the emergency situation gathering area6. Review training requirements for all personnel involved in the project7. Review the contents of this plan with all personnel involved in the project to familiarize them

with their duties and responsibilities8. Ensure that all workers are aware of the communication devices for emergencies including alarms,

cell phones, two way radio systems etc.9. Ensure that all adequate safety equipment and fire extinguishers are available on site10. Ensure that all personnel are using the appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)11. Ensure that all workers have been trained in Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System(WHMIS)12. Ensure that all workers exposed to the potential for falls from working at a height of

greater than 3.0 meters are properly trained in Fall Protection13. During Construction ensure that workers are aware of the location of the First Aid station and

where the first aid kits are located in each trailer14. Ensure that there is a spill kit stored in the site trailer and that all workers are aware of its location

7.0 General Emergency ProceduresThis emergency plan was developed for the following plausible contingencies that could transpireat the facility:

1. Personnel Injuries and Illnesses2. Fires and Explosions3. Construction Emergencies4. Extreme Weather Conditions5. Transport Incidents6. Extreme Site Conditions7. Emergency within a Turbine8. Aircraft Impact



7.1. ResponsibilityIt is the responsibility of the Site Manager to assess a developing emergency situation and initiatethe appropriate actions in this plan to protect personnel, the surrounding environment, andequipment from adverse damages.

7.2. Emergency NotificationsIn the event of an emergency, the following Emergency Notification Procedures should be used and allemergency situations should immediately be reported.

7.5. Describe the personnel involvedWhen describing personnel involved, indicate the numbers affected and the following initialassessment:

1. Fatality2. Major Illness (e.g. heart attack, not breathing, unconscious)3. Major Injury (e.g. broken bone, loss of limb, severe cuts/bleeding)4. Minor Injury (e.g. twisted ankle, foreignbody in eyes, minor cuts)5. Weather Effect (e.g. effects of heat, sun, cold, wind chill, lightning strike)6. Incident Type (e.g., fall, crush, vehicle crash, fire, electric shock)

7.6. LocationThe site will be assigned a 911 address, provide that information along with specific location of theemergency, by referring to the nearest turbine, structure, or road junction. Also let the operatorknow whether casualties are in the open, trapped in a vehicle or site equipment, or at height within aturbine.

7.7. CoordinationThe supervisor(s) will send an employee to the nearest site access point to meet emergencyservices, and escort them to the location of the emergency.

If air evacuation services are required, personnel will direct emergency responders to a designatedhelicopter landing area. This area will be identified prior to construction, and a map and coordinateswill be included in the final Plan.

The supervisor(s) will continue to assist with the situation on site, and a supervisor will alsoaccompany the injured personnel to the hospital. The supervisor will stay until examination (includinga drug and alcohol test) is complete, so that a full report including the extent of the injuries can bemade.

7.8.MedicalTransportationIf EMS is not required, for non urgent medical attention, the supervisor should arrange for the injuredperson to be brought to the hospital. The nearest hospital with an emergency room is Ross MemorialHospital. The distance is approximately 29 km and takes approximately 23 minutes under normaldriving conditions.

7.9. Emergency Company ContactsThe supervisor(s) will contact the Site Manager who will act as the Emergency Coordinator and who willassist at the location of the emergency. The supervisors or Site Manager will arrange for a trained FirstAider to attend the scene of the emergency, if required. The names and contact information for all



first aiders will be made available to all of the site supervisors. First aiders should be identified bybadges on their hard hats.

The emergency personnel are listed in Appendix 1; the following personnel will be available 24 hours aday

Title Office Phone ExtensionSite Manager 905 813 8400 235Site Supervisor 905 813 8400 235Project Manager 905 813 8400 235

8.0 Site Evacuation ProcedureBased upon the type and extent of the emergency, an assessment is made regarding whether anevacuation should be initiated. The following criteria should be considered in rendering a decision toconduct an evacuation of the site:

Severity of the emergencyRestrictions in egress routes caused by the emergencyWind direction (if the emergency involves gases/vapours)

Personnelempowered to order evacuation/shutdown of the site are:

Supervisors of individual contractors, whomay instruct their own people to evacuatewpd Canada supervisors, who may instruct all personnel to evacuate

1. A designated evacuation route and assembly site will be identified in the EmergencyResponse Plan and posted at the site in plain view. When instructed, personnelwill evacuate site via nearest access to the designated route, and assemble at thedesignated site.

2. The wpd Canada’s site manager (or designated person) will arrange a headcount of all personnel. This will be done by the supervisors from each contractorcarrying out their own headcount, and advising wpd Canada of the result. Supervisorsfrom each contractor will be responsible for maintaining an accurate record ofwhich personnel are onsite each day, in order to be able to identify whichpersonnel are missing in the case of an emergency evacuation.

3. The procedure will be as follows:The Site Manager or designate will sound the emergency alarm as appropriateto the emergency situationLocate and obtain the visitor/contractor sign in sheetNotify all to assemble at the designated assembly site



Once at the designated site, perform a head count and have all contractorsconduct a head count for their personnel and bring the information to the wpdCanada Site ManagerIdentify which personnel are not accounted for and query via radioAll personnel at the designated assembly site will remain at the location untiladvised to return to work stations.

9.0 EmergencySituations Procedures

9.1. Personal Injury1. Provide First aid immediately and arrange for medical attention if required2. Preserve the scene of the accident until the Ministry of Labour advises it can

be released – it may involve roping off the area to restrict access.3. Contact Emergency Company contacts and the appropriate Emergency

personnel listed on the Emergency Contact List4. Critical injuries must be reported to the Ministry of Labour immediately and

followed up with a written report within 48 hours5. Investigate the accident as soon as possible with the Worker Health and Safety

Representative6. Report all injuries to wpd Canada within 24 hours7. Report to WSIB for any injuries requiring medical attention within 3 days

9.1.1. Personal Injurywithin the nacelleor hubIf a medical emergency occurs within the nacelle or hub all technicians are fully trained in highangle rescue techniques as well as standard first aid. First Aid will be provided immediatelyand arrangements will be made for medical attention if required. The person will be loweredto the ground level using rescue equipment stored within the nacelle (see Appendix 5 RescuePlan).

9.2. Fire Prevention ProceduresThe Site Fire Response Plan is attached as Appendix 3. All fires are to be reported immediately tothe City of Kawartha Lakes (CKL) Fire Department by calling 911 and to the Site Manager. TheFire Prevention Procedures for a fire occurring in the Turbine is attached as Appendix 4.

9.3. ConstructionThose incidents that are not considered emergencies will be investigated and incidents are to bereported to the wpd Canada Site Manager immediately upon securing the scene. All incidents will bediscussed within the following days as a safety topic at pre start up meetings. A complete report ofthe incident will be sent to wpd within 24 hours.



9.4. SpillsOil leaks from the wind turbine are prevented by the following passive systems:

Labyrinth in the careenage of the hub (spinner)Baffles of oil recovery and retention in the hooding of the nacelleCollector of grease under the gears of the azimuthSystem closed for the central greasing of the crowns and the bladesUse of oils and fluid hydraulics whose viscosity with room temperature is high

However, in the case of a spill of chemicals or hazardous materials from an unforeseen accident thespill must be reported to the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change by the person whospills or who causes or permits the spill, and the person who had control of the pollutantimmediately prior to the spill. Subsection 13(2) of O. Reg. 675/98.

The Incident must be reported by calling 911 and by speaking with a person at the Ministry’s SpillsAction Center (SAC). The SAC operates 24 hours per day, every day of the year 1 800 268 6060. Inaddition the spill must be reported to City of Kawartha Lakes (705 324 9411) and to the site managerto notify the property owner.

Contact Title Phone Numberwpd Canada Site Manager 1 888 712 2401 ext 235

The report to the SAC must be made within 4 hours and be followed up with a written report within 24hours.

The person that is responsible for the spill or release should attempt to stop the release, if it can bestopped without incurring additional exposure to the substance e.g. close a drain valve.

Move to a location that is a safe distance away but allows for visual contact – if in doubt that it is safeto do so leave the area

Advise the Site Manager and warn any others within the area of the following:What type of chemical has been spilled/releasedLocation and boundaries of spill/releaseHas spill been stopped and containedAny injuries or chemical exposure has occurred to personnelQuantity of spill or release



Any possible environmental impactsBased on the report the Site Manager will evaluate whether there is a threat to thesurrounding community or environment – if yes emergency services will becontacted via 911The Site Manager will attend the site to evaluate the adequacy of the containment,barricades and any other efforts to prevent the spill from migrating

Site Manager will arrange for an adequately trained observer to remains in positionat a safe distance from the scene to observe the status of the spill until a companylicensed by the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change can respond forcleanup/mitigation actions.

9.5.Material Safety Data Sheets for Hazardous MaterialsEach subcontractor is required to maintain listings of all materials that they are using which may beflammable or hazardous to health, and will provide a copy, updated as appropriate, to the wpd Canadasite office. These files should be prominently located and clearly visible in each subcontractor's traileror office and in the wpd Canada site office.

9.6. ExtremeWeatherConditionsSevere weather conditions, particularly gusting high wind speed and electrical storms, have apronounced effect on the construction of wind turbines. Records of prevailing weather conditions willbe kept on a daily basis and weather forecast updates will be reviewed and assessed periodicallythroughout the day. These measures will be used to ensure the safe continuity of work, such thatweather sensitive activities are only commenced when existing or imminent weather conditions allowfor safe execution of those activities.

All concerned parties at the Project Site will be proactive in monitoring local atmospheric conditionsand should maintain awareness regarding any changes that could indicate deteriorating weatherconditions. However, the Site Manager will make the determination of whether work should cease

The turbine manufacturers have recommendations in the turbine installation manuals that specifymaximum wind speeds that are allowed for:

Erection of tower sections, nacelles, rotor assemblies and bladesWorking at height inside a turbineWorking at height external to the turbineWorking on a suspended platform

In addition, heavy lifting cranes have specific limitations with respect to positioning, rigging, and liftingcomponents that will change with the dimensions of the component, the location, ground conditions,weather conditions, and wind speeds. The turbine manufacturer's recommendations and the cranelimitations will be considered for each stage of construction to mitigate the risk inherent in eachoperation. Turbine specific details and manuals will be maintained on site.



Once extreme weather has been identified, site staff will follow the preparatory checklist below:

Ensure all portable equipment is stored indoorsEnsure all compartment accessory doors are closed and latchedEnsure that switchgear, load center and tower doors are closed and latchedMake a general housekeeping inspection and ensure all loose objects and debristhat could be blown around is secure or insideEnsure all transistor radios and two way radios are fully chargedEnsure all personnel evacuate the towers

9.6.1. IceAs ice grows on wind turbines, especially on rotor blades, it may lead to an increased hazard to theenvironment. The turbines are equipped with a redundant and state of the art ice detection system asassessed by TÜV Nord, which enables the turbine operating system to detect ice during operation aswell as during stand still. This is realized by the following means:

Comparisonmeasurement of anemometersAnalysis of the measured values during turbine operationWind turbine protection by vibration monitoring

These monitoring functions trigger status codes in the turbine control system.

In case of ice detection the wind turbine automatically shuts down. The restart of the turbine isconducted automatically when icing conditions can be excluded. If the absence of ice has beenreported after a visual on site inspection, it is also possible to restart the turbine manually underspecific conditions.

In addition, the wind turbine includes operation mode alternatives, enabling decrease of the rotationalspeed in the event of ice detection or complete shutoff. Therefore, no further emergency proceduresare required.

9.6.2. ElectricalActivity and LightningTall metal structures like wind turbines and heavy lifting cranes are prone to attract atmosphericelectrical activity until suitable grounding is in place. In the event of local electrical storms orthunderstorms, site personnel should evacuate all turbine locations and seek safety in the cabs of theirvehicles, maintaining a distance of at least 80 feet from turbine locations until the storm has passed orabated.

Each wind turbine is equipped with a comprehensive lightning protection and earthing system inaccordance with International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 62305 (2006 01) and IEC 61400 24Ed.1 (2010 06) which is used to protect the machine from direct or indirect lightning strikes. Thereceptors of the blades, the spinner, the nacelle and the lightning rod receive the lightning andsubsequently discharge the lightning current via defined paths to the ground. The electrical as well



as the electrical components of the WEC are protected against interfering fields and disturbancevoltage by overvoltage arresters.

9.7. Transport IncidentsAll incidents involving vehicles will be reported to wpd Canada to monitor issues and determine if anyspills resulting from the incident triggers reporting requirements or a review with the contractorinvolved. If the incident occurs on a public road the Police will be called as well as the contractor andwpd Canada.

9.8. ExtremeSite ConditionsNatural disasters like earthquakes and flash floods may occur without warning. In such cases it isimportant that the site be evacuated with all possible haste. All site personnel should move away fromthe location of the event and get to the assembly area a safe distance location. It is essential thatpersonnel remain calm and do not panic. Once personnel are in a safe location, Emergency NotificationProcedures should be enacted.

9.9. Emergency within a TurbineIn the event that an incident occurs at height within a turbine, the City of Kawartha Lakes FireEmergency Services will be contacted and advised of the need for high angle rescue equipmentand techniques to enable injured personnel to be removed to safety. The wind turbinemanufacturerwill have available, on site, such equipment and trained personnel to support and assistEmergency Services to action such a recovery.

Emergency response equipment will be stored in the turbine supplier's site office and shall betransported to the appropriate turbine in the case of an emergency incident.

9.10. Aircraft ImpactAs stated in the Design and Operations Report the presence of wind turbines presents a potentialhazard to low flying aircrafts. Aviation safety lighting and marking of the turbines will be in compliancewith Transport Canada’s Standard 621 – Obstruction Marking and Lighting. The lighting system onProject structures will be fully operational as soon as each electrical circuit is energized. To minimizethe risk of collision by low flying aircraft during the construction phase, fully erected turbines that havenot been energized will be marked with a suitable self powered obstruction light until such time as thatcircuit is energized.

There are two aerodromes and one hospital heliport in the area. There are no adverse effectsexpected, however, in the unlikely event that such a collision occurs, the Plan will be brought intoeffect to mobilize the appropriate Emergency Services.



9.11. Confined Space RescueDuring the construction phase any confined space monitoring and rescue will be addressed by themanufacturer of the turbine. After completion the maintenance contractor will be responsible forsupplying the Confined Space Rescue Team, equipment and preparing all rescue plans. Plans will beavailable on site and submitted to wpd Canada prior to the start of the maintenance.

10.0 Safety InspectionsAll contractors will hold daily toolbox meetings and copies will be provided to wpd Canada. Additionalmeetings will be held following an emergency response and a review will be conducted to determinehow successfully the Plan was implemented. Following this review, actions will be taken to correct anydeficiencies, either by improved communication of the Plan or by modification to the Plan.

All equipment will have pre operational reviews conducted and documented.

Site inspections including inspections of the site trailer, the first aid station, the emergency equipmentand Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) will be conducted monthly and the report will kept for theduration of the project in the site trailer.

The first aid station will be the responsibility of a person who holds a valid St. John AmbulanceStandard First Aid Certificate or its equivalent, and who works in the immediate vicinity of the box.


APPENDIXThree– FireResponsePlan


FireResponsePlan

The Sumac Ridge Wind Project does not expect to have any flammable or combustiblechemicals on site other than those required by the road construction contractor for maintenanceof vehicles and equipment.

The Contractorwill have a Fire PreventionPlan that lists all chemicals, the procedures to controlflammable and combustiblematerial that will be kept at site and themeasures to be taken toprevent,minimize the severity of, and proactively prepare for the event of a fire emergency.

All vehicles on the construction site will be equippedwith fire extinguishers.

Safe and expedient response actions are essential to protect the health and safety of personneland minimize damages to equipment and the surroundingenvironment.

1. Any person who discovers a fire in the immediate vicinity should immediately makecontact with the Site Manager and provide the following information:a) That a firehas beendiscoveredb) The locationand sourceof the firec) Any injuries that haveoccurredd) The cause of the fire (if known)e) Actions he/shewill be taking to extinguish the firef) If fire cannot be extinguished, control access to the area from a safe location

NOTE: Notifying others of the emergency and getting trained responders on the way is themost important step in minimizing injuries to personnel and damage to equipment.However, if the persondiscovering a firewould be delayed in extinguishing it in its initialstage by first getting to a radio to report it, the priority would be to extinguish the fire inthe initial stage. Example: A fire commences in the immediatevicinity of a person whodoes not have ready access to a radio. If the person can quickly extinguish the fire, theyshould do so first, and then get to a radio to report the fire as soon as possible thereafter. Ifa fire progresses to, or is discovered in a state beyond the initial stage, the immediate actionis to notify others and get help.

2. Any person discovering a fire in its initial stage should take action as quickly aspossible to extinguish the fire. In general, a fire should be considered to be inits initial stage if it meets two primary criteria:a) The fire can beextinguishedor controlledwith a single portable fire extinguisher, and,b) The person discovering the fire perceives an adequate level of safety in attempting toextinguish the fire.

As long as the fire is in its initial stage, as defined above, the person discovering the fire shouldutilize all appropriate and readily available fire extinguishing equipment to extinguish the fire.Fire fighting efforts beyond the initial stage will be performed by trained outside respondersonly. (Note: All personnel will be provided with initial and periodic refresher training on thetypes and locations of fire fighting equipment at the site.
