6.2.2.3 Social Assistance and Employment ServicesThe project will generate a range of direct and spin-off employment opportunities, thereby reducing theneed for financial support. However, there may also be negative effects as the benefits of economicgrowth will not be shared by all and any associated inflationary effects will particularly affect those withlow incomes. This would potentially increase demands for income support services. The effects of theproject on social assistance and employment services in each of the study areas is expected to be small,but primarily positive. Effects of this nature are expected to occur primarily in the operation phase, as aresult of cumulative effects, and particularly in the St. John’s area. No formal project monitoring isrecommended. The provincial department responsible for social assistance and employment supportprograms have in place mechanisms to assess and address program needs.6.2.2.4 Policing and Fire ProtectionAs with any other industrial or business activity, there is a potential for project-related activities torequire policing or fire protection services. There has been no suggestion or evidence that Hibernia orTerra Nova have affected the nature or level of crime, or the demands for policing services or fireprotection, in the St. John’s, Isthmus of Avalon or Marystown areas. White Rose, even when thecumulative effects of multiple project operations are considered, is not expected to change this. Data onevents and needs are collected on a regular basis by the relevant policing and fire-protection authoritiesas part of their normal mandate and planning activities. No additional monitoring or follow-up isanticipated or proposed.6.2.2.5 Recreation Services and FacilitiesThe project will result in some in-migration and increased demand for access to recreation facilities andprograms, primarily during the operation phase. These effects will mainly be experienced in the St.John’s area. However, the magnitude of these effects will be small and existing facilities and programsare expected to be able to cope with any increases. Even with the cumulative effects of populationgrowth associated with direct and indirect employment for the three major oil developments, the effectson recreation are not expected to be significant. No formal project monitoring is recommended. Theauthorities responsible for recreation facilities and programs have in place mechanisms to assess andproject demand, and can be expected to respond accordingly.White Rose DA Project Summary • January 2001 Page 94
6.2.3 Community Physical Infrastructure6.2.3.1 HousingThere is the potential for increased demands for housing during construction activities and during theoperations phase. Direct effects during construction activity could occur in any of the study areas, whileeffects from operation are expected only in the St. John’s area. Some cumulative effects may also occurin the St. John’s area as a result of multiple field development, growth of the offshore service sector andgeneral economic growth.Any project-specific direct effects on housing in the St. John’s area are likely to be small and of shorttermduration. Cumulatively, the three offshore projects, a growing offshore supply and service sector,and growth related to other economic activities, will increase the demand for housing. For the most part,however, these effects will be beneficial, especially from the perspective of home-builders and suppliers,home sellers, and municipal tax authorities. However, it could place a burden on those with low or fixedincomes who find higher prices for accommodations problematic. Similarly, the White Rose project isnot expected to have any substantive effects on housing in the Isthmus of Avalon area. Decisionsregarding the use of camps for construction have not yet been made. Husky Oil will work with the localcommunity to plan the management of any workforce effects. In the Marystown area, there is presentlya large excess of infrastructure capacity, including housing. Therefore, it is not expected that there willbe any significant adverse effects on housing in the area. The overall project residual effects areconsidered to be primarily positive and not significant.6.2.3.2 Ports and AirportsEffects of the project on both the Port of St. John’s and St. John’s International Airport are expected tobe positive. Their greater use will generate increased revenues for both administrative authorities, butshould have no negative effects on other users. No mitigative measures are considered necessary. Theport and airport authorities monitor activities on an ongoing basis and can be expected to respond to anycustomer needs as they emerge.6.2.3.3 Industrial and Commercial Land, Warehousing and Office SpacePotential effects of the project on industrial and commercial lands, warehousing and office space willlikely to be positive. Offshore operators, industry suppliers and contractors have and will continue touse industrial land and warehouse and office space in the St. John’s area. These properties contributedto the local economy through their direct and indirect employment and business effects. Terra Nova andHusky Oil White Rose personnel presently occupy office space in downtown St. John’s and may requireadditional industrial and warehouse space when their projects are operational. These will benefit thearea and should not exceed the capacity or capability of the area to meet demand. In the Isthmus area,the use of the Bull Arm site by the oil industry has been beneficial to the local and provincial economies.White Rose DA Project Summary • January 2001 Page 95
