have the power to declare, direct or
control an emergency. This, de
spite the fact that in rural counties,
like Huron, almost any major
emergency is going to require the
involvement and co-ordination of
resources greater than those of the
affected municipality.
My primary task is to streamline
and co-ordinate, with a plan and
bylaw, the county’s response to a
request for emergency involve
ment by one of its municipalities.
An extension of this task will be the
job of encouraging and assisting
municipalities in the development
of their own plans: plans that not
only bylaw the process of declaring
an emergency, but delineate clear
ly how an emergency would be
directed and controlled.
The last matter I would like to
clarify regards the emergency
plans of the Bruce Nuclear Power
Development. The Bruce, contrary
to what was implied in the article,
has extensive emergency plans
both for the power plant and the
surrounding municipalities. My
concern with the Bruce Nuclear
Emergency Plan was that a portion
of northern Huron County lies
within the Secondary Zone (the
area between 10and50kms. of the
plant.) I, and perhaps many others,
do not know what those living
within this zone should do in
response to an emergency occur
ring at the Bruce site.
It is to address questions such as
these and many others that the
process of developing contingency
plans is directed.
I would like in conclusion, to
thank The Citizen for its interest in
reporting on the Emergency Plan
ning Process. The role that you
play in generating concern and
motivation among our elected
officials to develop emergency
plans for our county communities
is a critical one that should not be
underestimated.
Sincerely,
Tom Hanrahan,
Huron County Engineering
Planning Co-ordinator.

Brussels, Morris and Grey Indus
trial Development Committee,
Brussels, Ontario.
Dear Sirs:
I am writing to you on behalf of
the Brussels Flying Club Inc. and
the owners of the Brussels airport,
Jim and Leona Armstrong. We
would like to express our sincere
delight in the possibility of a new
industry establishing in Brussels.
Realizing that the proposed site is
in the airport proximity, we would
like to assure you that you have our
full co-operation in adjusting air
traffic and airport operations to
concur with the testing of the
proposed industry’s products.
Airports, in other communities
with industry, have become really
positive assets. We believe that
working together with the Depart-
mentof Transport, the Flying Club
Pilots and Management, new
Industry, and the Municipalities
involved, the Brussels Airport
could also become a real asset for
future development.
Yours truly,
Gerrit Van Keulen,
Secretary-Treasurer,
Brussels Flying Club Inc.

Huron County became effective.
We’ve worked with him during his
five year term as MOH and are
sorry to see him leave. He has been
receptive to new ideas and sugges
tions, approachablefor advice, and
supportive of programs. Dr. Cies-
lar cared about the Health Unit
staff he was responsible for and the
people of Huron County he served
as MOH. But most importantly, he
performed his duties honestly and
straightforwardly. We respect him
for that and for what he tried to do
for public health in Huron.
Respectfully,

how midwives should be educated.
There are a great deal of myths
surrounding midwifery. So often
w'hen the word midwifery or
midwife is mentioned there is an
immediate response; Oh! That
means homebirth. It does not.
Midwives are trained to work in a
variety of settings, in birthing
centres, homes, and in hospitals.
Today’s midwives are highly
trained professionals, working
with doctors and nurses, all
