PRE -BEGINNERS . Sharon Askes, Robbie Cattails to • treat sewage The common cattail plant may be nature's weapon against water pollution con- trol problems from small municipalities. An artificial marsh com- posed primarily of cattail plants will be constructed in Listowel to treat part of that community's sewage efflu- ent, Doug McTavish, Envir- onment 'Ontario's regional director announced today following discussions with Listowel's council. "The process uses natural purification as its basic prin- cipal," said Mr. McTavish. 'If this simple concept is successful in Listowel it could be used in other parts of Ontario to treat sewage effluent without building large and expensive seiNage treatment plants. "Cattails will use the nut- rients found in sewage efflu- pollutant found in sewage effluent. The community's experi- mental marsh will use about 2.5 acies of land. A full treatment system based on marsh land would require far less land than the standard' lagoon system thus conserv- ing valuable land. Listowel's artificial marsh is being funded by the Prov- incial Lottery Corporation and the Ontario Ministry of the Environment.

Dissolved oxygen is essential to any watercourse for the life of fish and other aquatic life." Listowel's experimental marsh will be fed sewage effluent from the commun- ity's lagoons. The cattails should remove most of the nutrients before the remain- ing effluent reaches the Maitland River. In the EnVir- ontnent Ontario study, cat- • tails will also be assessed for their ability to remove heavy. 'metals from the effluent.
