Canadian -U.S. negotiations on acid rain are vitally important to our environmental future. " "The situation with respect to Stouffville wells really reflects the shortcomings of the Environment Ministry's "responsibility" for people's drinking water, and the effects of disposal sites. Once the dangers came to light, the Ministry refused to recognize the valid information presented to them' by independent studies initiated by the resid- ents concerned. In other words, In addition to not doing their own work in this respect, Ministryofficials failed to acknowledge the studies carried out by others on behalf of the people of Stouffviile,. "Municipalities have been forced by the Ministry to go through useless exercises in dealing with waste disposal sites where problems exist. Decision making powers have been taken away from municipalities as Ministry officials dictate the; way they want things done, In some cases, the Ministry has refused to recognize practices which it developed with Alite assistance of, local officials some five or six years earlier." •W4Y�r�..
