Ash field group disputes continuance of study Huron County should proceed with a detailed hydrogeological study of the proposed Ashfield Twp. site for a county landfill and suspend the Stage 2D phase of the Waste Management Master Plan until then, the Concerned Citizens of Ashfield and Area (CCAA) told county council Thursday. "We really take exception to Planning and Development contin- uing to stage 2D. You don't have an approved hydrogeological study yet," said Don McNay during pub- lic question period. But Gary Davidson, county plan- ning director said that the addition- al hydrogeological studies, (looking at the underground soil conditions and their ability to keep leachate from a landfill from spreading to the ground water) are included in the next stage of the study and county council has not approved funding for that phase yet. Stage 2D is expected to be completed by year end. At that point additional hydro-geological work will be done to see if the site meets environmental requirements. McNay argued that there should be water wells drilled on the site and pump-down tests done to see if the site's groundwater can be pro- tected. He also said that the con- sulting firm which is conducting the county's master plan study has a system-bias toward large incinera- tion systems when it claims energy from waste or incineration facilities arc not feasible in Huron because of the large amount of waste need- ed. There are new, smaller systems which operate efficiently on the amounts of non-recycled garbage available in the county, he claimed. Blyth Reeve Mason Bailey, returning to his belief that landfill sites are becoming a thing of the past, pointed out a letter from the Bluewater Recycling Association Town and Country Homemakers is celebrating "October" . as Community Support Month. With 500 dedicated volunteers and 200 committed staff, Town and Country Homemakers has assisted 2,500 seniors, disabled and others with special needs to remain independent at home in their communities. This year, Town and Country Homemakers has delivered the following services: • Meals: Meals on Wheels volunteers delivered 11,000 nutritious meals to 225 shut-in about a proposed new waste sepa- ration plant. "It would almost appear they want to take all our garbage," he said, though there were not enough details available to be sure what was being pro- posed. He asked if the county could get more information. "I think it brings out the fact the alternatives arc surfacing faster than I had imagined," Bailey said. He ques- tioned the county continuing to spend money on "what might be an obsolete project." people. • Homemaking: 1,000 persons received over 160,000 hours of homemaking, palliative respite care and home maintenance. • Transportation: 265 persons depended on our volunteer drivers to take them to doctor appointments, grocery shopping and other vital outings of this kind. • Friendly Visiting & Telephone Reassurance: 26 persons who are homebound due to frailty or disability, received 2,000 calls/visits. • Diner's Programs: 14,000 Davidson agreed that technology is changing "almost weekly". Pam VanDyke of the CCAA's impacts studies committee read a letter to council stating area resi- dents needed more information, such as the final visual appearance of the site and the types of trucks and on-site equipment that would be used before they could answer the impact questionnaires accurate- ly. All survey questions should be individuals enjoyed 11,350 hot, nutritious meals and time of socialization. In celebration of Community Support Month and in honour of our staff and volunteers, Town and Country Homemakers will be having an evening celebration at the Seaforth Recreation Centre (Duke Street), Wednesday, Oct. 18 from 7 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. The events will include: entertainment by St. Mary's Stonctown Entertainers, refreshments and door prizes. provided one month in advance and there should be no telephone inter- views, she said. She also called on the county to extend the area around the site in which residents can get compensation for loss of property value, etc. from 500 meters to five kilometres. Meanwhile council agreed to call tenders for an appraisal of the prop- erty of Ted VanderVelde who wants to sell his property near the proposed site but feels European buyers have bcen'scared off by the possibility a landfill site might he located nearby.
