Build 69 Afore Ponds The Authority has 'assisted in the construction of 69 farm ponds this year, •making a total of 318 ponds built on 'the water- shed under the Authority's farm pond program. At the Authority meeting, in March, the Chief 1Conservatlon Engineer a n -n o u nc a d- that a "Little Valley" study would be carried out by his staff on the watershed during the early sum- mer. This h s intensive study of one of the small watersheds within the main Ausable system will in, corporate all phases of conserve- UM', with special emphasis on proper land use. It is 'hoped that, with the co-operation • of the farmers involved, these recom- mendations can be carried out. The area selected for study is the watershed of a branch of. the Nairn Creek near Ailsa Craig. The site is suitable both because of its size (about 10;000 acres) andbecause of the representa- tive range of conditions. Since the first of the year talks on conservation have been given by members of the Author- ity to ten groups g ul s in the water- shed.
