goggles and for snowmachines to have
adequate brakes, improved lighting and
padded handlebars, He said towing hitches
should be heavier and added that the extra
precaution of chains on the hitch would
beneficial.
' In order to control trespassing, Buffinga
suggested that machines have individual
numbers painted on the side in contrasting
paint which would be easily visible from a
distance.
Buffinga said that existing laws gover-
ning snowmachines were adequate, if they
were enforced. He too suggested that the
government could assist by using a portion
of the licence fees for providing
snowmachine trails within easy distance
of all municipalities.
Don McKee, a biologist who is also a
teacher at GDCI, deplored snowmachines
for recreational use because they use up
valuable natural resources; they damage
crops in the rural areas, most particularly
winter wheat; they drive wildlife away;
and they cause a noise which is "dreadful
day and night"
McKee said that in the Falls Conser-
vation Area with which he is most familiar,
wildlife is slowly disappearing and
sightings of such things as deer and certain
species of birds are rare compared to
several years ago before the advent of the
snowmachine.
He claimed that studies have shown that
in snowmachine areas, where the ground is
compacted by constant trailing, the tem-
peratures of the soil vary greatly damaging
small animals and plants. Where the
ground is left untouched except for normal
activities, McKee suggested, the soil tem-
peratures remain constant.
A farmer in the audience said that he
has 400 acres and many, snowmachines
travel his land each winter, He said he
could report no damage to crops, although
he did not grow winter wheat.
It was also stated that the Department of
Agriculture had been asked to conduct a
study into the snowmachine damage
charges, but that so far there is little con-
clusive evidence to support the claim that
snowmachines do much damage to crops
except winter wheat.
Linda McDonald, a GDCI student,
presented what she termed "a small scale
survey" with 240 names attached.
The petition asked that legislation be
established which would make it an offence
to operate for recreational purposes any
snow vehicle or multi terrain vehicle
without effective silencing mechanism
which would meet stringent and clearly
defined standards; between the hours of 11
pm at night and 8 am in the morning; on
the travelled or untravelled portion of any
public street, road, road allowance or
railway track; which fails to carry some
established means of indentifying the
owner of the machine, while the machine is
being operated; and on any private lands
without the specific permission of the
owner and on any public or commercial
lands unless designated and approved for
the purpose.
Brenda Thampson, also a GDCI student
asked,"I-low many people here are going to
be around 50 years from now to breathe
the air we will have to breathe?"
She said the environment is "slowly but
surely" deteriorating because of man's
careless habits and said that
snowmachines, mini-hikes etc. should be
banned for personal recreational use.
Another GDCI student, Kathy
Cruickshank, said she was concerned with
the safety of the snowmobile and suggested
improved lighting, steering, and "stringent
laws" governing the safety aspect of the
machine. She said it should be necessary to
have the snowmachine safety checked each
year and suggested it should be mandatory
for snowmachine operators to carry
adequate tool kits,
."The snowmobile has effectively
destroyed the peace of the winter coun-
tryside in this county," claimed Nick Hill,
RR I Auburn, "It is now difficult to find
place hi this county that is free from the
continuous background whine of
snowmobiles on ,Saturdays and Sundays
during the winter."
He said the fair decible count of the
snowmachine for 1971 is about 80.
"Por your interest, the average decible
rate of winter countryside - ti light breeze
and rustling of leaves arid branches in the
trees is 20 decibles," said Hill.
"Mr. Chairman I beg you to recommend
legislation to drastically reduce the
allowable noise factor of snowmobiles,"
concluded HilL
When asked what he considered would
be an allowable noise factor Hill said that
he supposed something akin to an electric
grass cutter would be permissable,
One member of the committee, George
Nixon (PC Dovercourt) said that the
decible rating at the average dance for
teenagers is something like 100 decible. He
said that by the time the young people get
onto their snowmachine in the future, they
will be deaf anyway,
"I see no reason at all why snowmobiles
cannot be made quieter," retorted Hill. "Is
there something wrong with that?"
Dr. Michael Watts, Goderich, claimed
snowmobiling was not a "healthy form of
exercise". In fact, Dr. Watts claimed that
some deaths and injuries (especially spinal
injuries) are reported each year from the
sport.
He said that if snowmobiling was carried
on in a "sound proof leak-proof room" he
would have little reason to complain. But,
said Dr. Watts, since snowmobiling is
carried on outdoors, he believes there are
implications fur the physical and mental
well-being of the entire community which
is the reason for his interest.
He cited the noise factor as the major
complaint and said he had the greatest
concern for the small children who were
being "towed behind" snowmachines.
Dr. Watts claimed that other vehicles
such as cars and trucks are used for tran-
sport, communications, business and com-
merce. He said they were confined to a
definite area.
The doctor went on to say that
snowmobiles are used mostly for
recreational purposes and are free to go
anywhere.
He suggested there was a tendency for
snowmobiles to disregard the rights of
others. Dr. Watts said that the fact that
snowmobilers laughed at the comments of
those persons who disagreed with them
was proof of this attitude.
He urged that snowmobiling for pleasure
be banned.
"Does any minority group - and
snowmobilers are a minority group - have
the right to further spoil the environ-
ment?" asked Dr. Watts.
He said there is no evidence that the
snowmobile is "beneficial" as a
recreational aid and claimed that it is a
sport for the over-40 age group - the higher
1
,
**,
ti
income group, he said, which is able to af-
ford a snowmachine. He said that by their
example to their children, the next
generation could very well perpetuate this
"lack of respect for one's fellowman."
Constable Wayne Moulton of the
Goderich detachment of the OPP said that
enforcement of the laws governing
snowmachines presented some problems.
He suggested that the problems of
trespassing were most troublesome for of-
ficers,
Moulton also said that he himself was
visiting the schools in the county instruc-
ting on the use of snowmachines and safety
measures involving them. He further
suggested this may have been one reason
why the Huron County Board of Education
turned down an offer for snowmobile in-
struction in the schools.
It was learned, however, that 4-H clubs
in the county have agreed that snowmobile
instruction is valuable for its youth.
