Environmental Services Association of Alberta

2017 Annual Report

2017 Annual Report 1

VisionThe Environmental Services Association of Alberta (ESAA)

is a not-for-profit, event funded and membership driven

association dedicated to supporting a strong environmental

services industry.

MandateESAA’s mandate is to be a leader in promoting and

developing the environmental services industry through

education, events and meetings which facilitate productive

relationships with relevant organizations and government.

ValuesESAA is and will remain accountable to its members for

operating in a financially responsible manner while delivering

high quality events and providing relevant services.

ESAA is a leading industry association responsive to the

needs of the environmental services industry by providing

a forum for engagement that supports dialogue with and

between industry and government stakeholders.

ESAA is committed to supporting the growth of the

Environmental Artworks Foundation of Alberta and other

community and charitable initiatives.

ESAA has a strong and engaged volunteer Board actively

contributing to the organization activities.

2 Environmental Services Association of Alberta

This past year was full of

change, growth and renewed

optimism throughout our

industry. On behalf of the

ESAA Board of Directors, I

am pleased to report that

ESAA’s committed vision for

the future has benefited the

organization by realigning

it to keep the pace with our

changing industry. As reported

in the 2016 Annual General

Meeting, the continual

investment in the evolution

of membership services has provided opportunities for solid

growth of our organization further securing ESAA’s position

as the top environmental services organization in Canada.

Due to operational efficiencies instituted in 2016, ESAA was

financially well positioned for excellence in 2017. We are

proud to report that the organization weathered the market

changes without requiring staff layoffs, office closure or any

other drastic financial measures. Although previous years

have posed a financial challenge, they were paramount in

spurring the organization to develop a disaster recovery plan

resulting in the development of a framework of options and

strategies to implement when triggered by external events.

The ESAA Board of Directors continues to refine and adjust

operational plans, and finalized a Performance Management

Program for ESAA staff in alignment with the organization’s

Strategic Plan. The next three years of ESAA’s Strategic Plan

will focus on the extension of membership services that

respond to the needs of our evolving membership base,

developing programs which capture new market sectors, and

expanding relationships within government and industry.

We are immensely proud to report that membership

numbers have remained stable which speaks to the loyalty of

our members. This fall, ESAA hosted a member appreciation

food truck event, to thank our members for their long-term

support. This event was well attended and provided ESAA

with the opportunity to connect with our members to show

our gratitude for their continued support.

This year we offered a single day “Regulatory Update

Forum” and a condensed Environment Business program.

With a mixture of sadness and excitement, ESAA hosted

the final WaterTech conference and unveiled the new

EnviroTech conference to be held in Calgary in the spring

of 2018. EnviroTech is designed to respond to the needs of

our changing membership, extending the reach of sectors

captured. With an overwhelming number of abstracts

leading to an expansion of the program and increased

exhibit space, along with solid sales, early signs indicate this

event is poised for success.

In 2017, ESAA directly helped to raise over $28,000 for

various charities, through our continuing commitments to

support charitable initiatives including the Environmental

Artworks Foundation of Alberta, which celebrated it’s 13th

year.

I commend the dedicated efforts of the ESAA staff and the

Board of Directors who continue to work hard to ensure

that ESAA remains a valuable resource to the environmental

services industry.

Lastly, as my last term with the Board of Directors comes

to a close, I wish to thank the ESAA staff, my fellow board

members and the ESAA membership for the honour

in serving this organization for the past 6 years. This

organization is in capable hands to deliver on the Strategic

Plan with a steadfast vision for ESAA’s future.

Thank you for your continued support.

President’s Report


ESAA Management Report

This past year was ESAA’s 30th year serving Alberta’s

environment industry, and during that time ESAA remained

versatile and resilient to meet the needs of a fast-paced

industry. At inception, ESAA was named the Alberta Special

Waste Services Association (ASWSA) which was formed to

assist waste companies in the developing environmental

sector. The companies that constituted the membership

of the ASWSA handled, transported, and disposed of

hazardous waste. The Association provided these companies

timely regulatory and marketing information that assisted

them in their operations and provided valuable networking

and educational opportunities.

ASWSA’s first significant project was the delivery of the

province-wide Household Toxic Roundup Program for the

Government of Alberta and business was focused solely in

the waste sector. However, the needs of the industry began

to expand and diversify. The ASWSA recognised the demand

for a more diverse industry association and rebranded as

the Environmental Services Association of Alberta (ESAA).

Since this evolution, ESAA has grown to become one of

Canada’s largest and most respected environmental industry

associations.

As ESAA enters its 31st year, the Association continues to

represent a rapidly evolving and innovative industry sector.

As the needs of the environment industry change, ESAA

strives to make a difference to our members’ businesses and

the environment industry by continuing to provide timely

information, opportunities, and educational networking

events that will positively impact their business. These

fundamental concepts formed the foundation that ESAA

was built on over 30 years ago.

Today, ESAA has over 250 members that represent multiple

disciplines in the environmental industry including industrial

services, remediation, reclamation, waste handlers and

recyclers, consultants, laboratories, manufacturers and

industry. Membership involvement continues to set ESAA

apart as an Association leader with new membership

programs like the Environment Industry Awards and the

Industry Photo Contest continuing to grow. In 2017, ESAA

awarded two member companies with Environmental

Industry Awards in the category of Environmental

Innovation, and ESAA received a record number of photo

submissions to the ESAA Photo Contest.

ESAA’s staff have worked hard to improve its existing

programs and services including B.I.D.S., The Weekly News,

Environment Business, professional development courses,

member networking activities, and conferences. RemTech

remains ESAA’s flagship event receiving a record number

of abstract submissions leading to the most extensive

program to-date. It also featured a delegation from China

who participated in a workshop organised by both ESAA

and Alberta Economic Development and Trade titled “Is

China’s Remediation Market right for you?”. There was

an overwhelming response from delegates with over 75

companies participating.

In April of 2017, ESAA hosted the last WaterTech

conference. After much deliberation, ESAA recognised

that evolving the conference into EnviroTech was a wise

long-term decision to meet the needs of ESAA’s growing

membership. EnviroTech will take place in Calgary and will

include a more extensive and diverse program providing

2017 Association Highlights

Major Activities

WaterTech Draws to a CloseAfter 10 years of providing the membership and industry

with the latest water-related technical information, ESAA

announced at the close of WaterTech 2017 that the

conference would be expanding and moving. The new

EnviroTech conference will take place in Calgary in April

2018. EnviroTech will still have a strong water focus but will

include other subsectors of the environment and current hot

topics and trends.

Details at www.esaa.org/envirotech.

Ongoing EventsIn 2017, ESAA once again hosted the Environment Business

Professional Development Courses, RemTech, a Regulatory

Forum and The Brian Winters Memorial Golf Tournament.

Providing members and the industry educational and

networking opportunities remains one of ESAA’s most

important objectives.

Industry Awards and Photo ContestThe ESAA Industry Awards acknowledged the environmental

innovations of two members. The winners were North

Shore Environmental Consultants and Hemmera Envirochem.

Details at www.esaa.org/industryawards.

The theme of the 2017 ESAA Photo Contest was “Iconic

Canadian Landscapes”. Submissions highlighted the beauty

of Canada as the country celebrated its 150th birthday.

Details at www.esaa.org/photocontest.

Burrowing Owl Conservation ProgramThe Canadian burrowing owl population declined by

a staggering 90% in the 1990s, and experts warn the

species may disappear from Canada if trends continue.

Low survival and return rates of juvenile owls are leading

to these population declines. In years with little food, the

youngest chicks seldom survive. Those that do survive

have a low chance of returning to Canada after spending

the winter in southern North America. It is unknown

whether the owls die or merely disperse to live elsewhere.

The program involved taking eight female and seven

male owls into the care of zoo experts at the Devonian

Wildlife Conservation Centre and nurturing them over

the winter of 2016-2017. In spring 2017, the 15 yearling

owls were fitted with GPS transmitters, released in pairs,

and introduced to their new burrows. The transmitters

allow researchers to monitor the owls’ movements and

survival after release, which may help to answer the

mystery of what happens during or after migration. All

seven pairs have mated and laid eggs. Six of the eight

nests were successful, and scientists are optimistic the

offspring will join their parents’ fall migration to Mexico

or the southern USA.

By protecting young owlets over a critical period and

releasing them as yearlings to Canadian nesting grounds,

this program has the potential to increase both juvenile

survival and return rates, and ultimately increase the

species’ population in Canada. This study could be a

pivotal method to help in the recovery of this tiny and

unique owl.

9. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Association is exposed to various risks through its financial instruments. The following analysisprovides information about the Association's risk exposure and concentration as of December 31,2017.

(a) Credit risk

Credit risk arises from the potential that a counter party will fail to perform its obligations. TheAssociation is exposed to credit risk from customers. An allowance for doubtful accounts isestablished based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific accounts, historical trendsand other information. As at December 31, 2017, two (2016 - two) customers made up 25% (2016- 41%) of the accounts receivable balance.

(b) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Association will not be able to meet its financial obligations,including commitments as they become due. In order to manage this risk,the Associationforecasts its requirements to determine whether sufficient funds will be available. The Associationexpects to generate sufficient funds through operations to meet its obligations.

(continues)

9. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

(c) Currency risk

Currency risk is the risk to the Association's earnings that arise from fluctuations of foreignexchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates. The Association is exposed to foreigncurrency exchange risk on cash held in U.S. dollars. The Association does not use derivativeinstruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.

(d) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument might be adversely affected by achange in the interest rates. In seeking to minimize the risks from interest rate fluctuations, theAssociation manages exposure through its normal operating and financing activities. TheAssociation is exposed to interest rate risk primarily through its floating interest rate mortgage andand interest rate cash flow on its variable rate savings account.
