Our cottage country offers something for everyone-- fishing, swimming, boating; camping or simply relaxing in fresh, clean, sunlit surroundings, It has been estimated that there are some 300,000 cottages in Ontario--in other words something like 1,000,000 "cottagers". In addition, there are millions of tourists, anglers and campers who enjoy them- selves at lodges, campsites and provincial parks, and whose activities are so important to the economies of these recreational areas. But the dream is rapidly becoming tarnished--per- haps irrevocably. There are increasing reports that our cottage country is being destroyed by urbanization and by industrialization. Almost daily, it seems, we hear of increased phosphate pollution--the problems caused by over-building along our lakeshores, by inadequate sewage systems and by agricultural run-off, In addition, it has been estimated that some 48,000 of Ontario's lakes will become biologically sterile due to acid rain--precipitation which mixes with industrial Jack's Jottings A tarnishing dream Apply better techniques such as storm water settling ponds to improve the management of urban storm run-off. These should be mandatory for new development. Require all , existing sewage treatment plants to limit their phosphorus ef- fluent to no higher than .3 mg per litre--the level set by the Ministry of the Environment for all new sewage treatment facilities. If necessary, provide financial aid to municipalities to upgrade existing plants. Make a commitment to improve the Lake's fishing levels through a variety of programs--greater prote- ction of spawning areas, more imaginative management programs, etc, Institute a continuous program of intensive in- spection of septic tanks on Lake Simcoe. As a long-term program, undertake to replace untreated steel septic tanks with tanks preferably made of concrete.' Require an update of all official plans of the 25 municipalities involved to incorporate the en- vironmental strategy and revised population targets within three years. Establish one agency-- perhaps a co-ordinating body under the Cabinet Com- mittee on Resources Development--and give it power to co-ordinate and ensure implementation of the policy. This plan to save Lake Simcoe will require! spen- ding. However, against the cost of such action we must measure the far greater cost of inaction--to Ontarfo's $5.5 billion tourist industry, to our fishing industry, to property values of cottage- owners and permanent residebts. Above all, unless the problems are dealt with now, vastly expensive schemes will be needed to restore the Lake in the future. Lake Simcoe is an im- portant testing ground and the fate of the Lake rests with the Provincial Cabinet. The Government's response on this issue will have By MRS.

Some 100,000 winter 'anglers and 45 summer anglers and 45,000 summer anglers fish in the Lake, an activity which generates about $13.6 million, Yet there is strong evidence that unless corrective action is taken to limit the nutrient and phosphate dumping into the Lake, pollution' problems will accelerate to the point where Lake Simcoe will be doomed as a recreational resource for Ontario. Prompt action is necessary Rather than awaiting development of a comprehensive long-term plan for the entire Basin, we believe immediate steps must be taken to reduce the phosphorus input into Lake Simcoe, and we have recommended a nine point strategy to this end. Set new lower population targets which are related to the cost and technology required to handle the phosphorus loadings produced. Adopt the slightly more stringent short-term target of 95 metric tonnes, rather than 103 metric tonnes, as the maximum phosphorus loading limit for the Lake, pollution and falls into our with the aim of reducing this lakes and rivers as a mild level even further in the but destructive acid--within future. the next 15 to 20 years. 140 Control agricultural run- lakes have already "died", off pollution. and we have not even begun to measure the results of acid rain pollution, ' What is being.done to save 1 our lakes for future generations? , What can be done?What must be done? A classic case in point is Lake Simcoe, which can serve as a warning and an example of the fate that awaits all our recreational lakes unless acti6h is taken immediately, before the damage is irreversible. Moreover, Lake Simcoe is a prime example of an 'inland lake which must be cleaned Sunday visitors with Mr. and Mrs. Clayton Pfile. Mrs. Cora Gaiser, Mrs. Don Gaiser and Faye, Mrs. Jack Gaiser.
