TO WCKNOA By Man Rivett •"In 10 to 15 years; the sites which have 20 or more year of use may have problems Huron County council passed a motionto proceed with a master plan for waste management in the county. The first phase of the project, to begin in 1987, is expected to cost between $150,000 and $200,000 which would be subsidized 50 per cent by _the Ministry of the Environment (MOE), LA. ;Dempsey, the county engineer,' said the BIDE program began last year to help counties or groups of municipalities develop waste disposal sites which would comply with the ever-increasing list of requirements for landfill sites. , So far, 20 regions or municipalities in Ontario have taken advantage of the program. The first phase of the three phase master plan would involve data volleetion being carried out on the individual landfill sites in the county. This would determine which of the sites should be expanded and which ones should eventually be closecl. The first phase would also involve reeomMending potential new areas for a landfill 'site. Phase two would involve actual site selections while phase three would involve the site establishment which would comply with MOE, regulations., Mr. Dempsey warned, council that the SO per . cent subsidy would only apply to the first phase of the master plan. The other subsequent phases of the projett could cost the county an estimated $500,000 to $600,000. . While only six of the 17 landfill sites in the county are due to be closed within the next year and another six sites with a lifetime beyond 20 years, he said the - master plan is still necessary as the MOE is constantly changing their requirements concerning landfill sites. New legislation called Regulation 309 places 23 conditions on, any new site and, within two years, these regulations will apply to all existing landfill sites. Seniors serve 200 The members of the Dungannon and Area seniors were kept busy on Saturday serving up the pork and beef to over 200 hungry people at their barbeque. As well as the meat there was plenty of potato salad, coleslaw and baked beans to enjoy. They are glad to report a real success for their first attempt at this type of venture. Sympathy is extended to Mel Jones on the death of his aunt, Mrs. Bert Marsh of Auburn on Friday., Funeral services were held from the Tasker Funeral Home in Blyth on Sunday with interment in Balls Cemetery in Auburn. Company recently with Mel Jones has been Weldon and Bertha Rudau of Elmira and Evelyn Smith of Chatham and her sister-in-law Edith Smith of London. Ray and- Gwen Copeland returned on Saturday from a trip through the beautiful New England States and the Maritimes, and the requirements for landfill sites will . get tougher and tougher," said Mr. Dempsey. While the funding for the program in • 1986 has been exhausted, he said there is a proposal before the Ontario legislature for an improvement in the funding base for 1987. The request for a master plan for waste management in the county met with some resistance in council. A recorded vote revealed a 27 to 7 vote in favor of going ahead with the :project. TuCkersmith Reeve Robert Bell called the implementation of a master plan for the county a "step in the right direction', because the individual muncipalities are finding studies for potential new landfill sites and the legalities that accompany them are "very expensive". "If the county- could get into the landfill business it would be beneficial to the municipalities. If you go it on your own - it's expensive," said Mr. Bell., Hay Township Reeve Lionel Wilder who voted against the proposal said the project is another in a long line of costly studies within the county. "One study would just lea.d to another," he said. ' Turnberry Reeve Brian McBurney said they master plan for waste inanagement • would be beneficial in giving the county a clear picture of its status in regardsto landfill sites. , "It can't help but be a help in finding out how we stand and what the alternatives are with our landfill sites," he said. • Mr. Dempsey said if the county's amilication is approved for the program, a steering committee would be made up of two voting members from the county, two members designated from the M013 as well as a non-voting advisor from the Environ- mental Assessment branch of the ministry.
