Ken

Senior Manager of Special Projects, Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA)

Ken Dion is the Senior Manager of Special Projects in the Project Management Office of the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA).  Since he began his work at the TRCA in 2001, Ken has managed several Environmental Assessment projects including the Lakeview Waterfront Connection Project, the Don Mouth Naturalization and Port Lands Flood Protection Project, and the Lower Don River West Remedial Flood Protection Project.  In addition to these large multi-facetted EAs, Ken has overseen the construction of a railway bridge lengthening project over the Don River at Union Station, Toronto.  This railway bridge project, in conjunction with the construction of a Flood Protection Landform in the West Don Lands, was critical in providing flood protection to downtown Toronto, while also serving as the foundation for the new Corktown Commons and 2015 Panam Games Athlete Village.  Currently, Ken is overseeing TRCA's involvement in the Port Lands Due Diligence work in collaboration with Waterfront Toronto, City of Toronto and Toronto Port Lands Company.  This due diligence work will seek to refine the design, cost and implementation strategies for the combined concepts that result from the Don Mouth EA and Lower Don Lands Master Plan Class EA.  Ken is also supervising TRCA's involvement in the Detailed Design process of the Lakeview Waterfront Connection Project, in support of the Region of Peel and Credit Valley Conservation.  Ken oversees, mentors and advises the works led by other Project Managers in the Project Management Office.   They are currently working on such projects as the Scarborough Waterfront Park Project, Gibraltar Point Erosion Control Project, and Humber Bay Project.
