"....Relocate Lead Contaminated Soil to Registered Landfill – Winona Rifle Range, Grimsby, Ontario...."
It doesn't appear to be the ONLY work being done at said range.
Competing visions put rifle range in their sights
While the town of Grimsby, facing a dwindling supply of land, was hoping to see the site turned over to it for a long sought-after lakefront trail and park, the military's $2.2-million plan calls for a new forward operating base 'modelled right out of Afghanistan'
ANTHONY REINHART, Globe & Mail, 5 Mar 09
Article link - .pdf permalink
From his observation post above the forward operating base, Major David DeVries can see them closing in from the south: new, two-storey homes, in tidy formation, marching steadily in his direction.
To his eye, the new neighbours should be friend, not foe. After all, the Winona Rifle Range has been here for 71 years, training the soldiers upon whose backs the suburban Canadian dream was built, and who continue to serve and die in Afghanistan today.
But these days, the old range is facing fresh fire, and it's not entirely friendly, despite the name of a key opponent, the Friends of the Waterfront Committee. The group wants the site turned over to the Town of Grimsby for a lakefront trail and park, and the town's mayor, faced with rapid growth and a dwindling supply of land, more or less agrees.
To add to their woes, they only recently learned, through the local paper, no less, that the military is marching precisely in the opposite direction. It has undertaken $2.2-million in enhancements to the range, including an Afghanistan-style forward operating base, rappelling tower, mock village, obstacle course and troop shelter, which hardly suggests surrender....

"In many theatres of combat, the proliferation of electro-optical guidance weapons (especially portable systems) is a serious threat to military aircraft. Furthermore, the most recent threats are based on sophisticated tracking mechanisms that could integrate advanced counter-countermeasures (CCM) discrimination mechanisms. To act against these threats, new countermeasure technologies (in particular those based on directional lasers) have been developed over the past few years. Studying these new self-protection measures is therefore an essential field of research at Defence R&D Canada - Valcartier (DRDC Valcartier). Because of its versatility and integration capability, digital simulation was one method selected to evaluate the overall effectiveness of these countermeasure technologies and to record the data collected by simulation...."
