Representatives from the planning department attended open houses and public meetings in Blyth- and Hensall, Tuesday and Wednesday respectively, to provide residents with a chance to look over materials gathered to date and add their opin- ions, said planner Sandra Weber. Ashfield Twp. passed an interim control bylaw last June, which will go before the Ontario MtInicipal Board in June. The bylaw is geared to limiting the size of intensive livestock operations and set out standards for nutrient management in the township. Since the Ashfield action, - many other municipalities have passed similar bylaws. Because of the Ashfield bylaw, Webef said a study was needed to address all the issues. It was decided at that time to make it county-wide rather than just with reference to the one township. Weber said the county study group has consulted farm organizations, environmentalists, councillors, clerks and building officials to gath- er input on the many issues involved in nutrient management and inten- sive livestock operations. A list of topics for discussion per- taining to the, issue were given to those attending the evening's public sessions. Some of the concepts covered under nutrient management plan requirements included application rates, well and water course set- backs, notice of intent, record keep- ing, enforcement, land ownership, well monitoring, dry manure, defini- tion of intensive, risk assessment and monitoring tile drains. Construction standards could deal with manure storage covers, earthen pits, leak-proof certification, munici- pal engineer inspections, storage capacity, re-routing field tiles, catch basins up and downstream and shal- low ground water. Broader issues of air quality, septic systems, biosolids,abandoned wells, and financial assistance were also up for discussion as were procedural matters such as permits, NMP land registries, fines and training for the chief building officials. It was hoped the public meetings would allow for expansion of the issues to be addressed, comments gathered and consideration for con- cerns which could be dropped, said Weber. All information gathered from the meetings will be compiled into a draft report which will be used for the OMB hearing. It will be circulat- ed for further comment and there will be more public consultation before implementation. There were four tables playing at the Blyth euchre party. Winners were: ladies' high, Jane Glousher; men's high, Graeme McDowell; ladies' lone hands, Carol Daer; men's lone hands, Edythe Glousher; ladies' low, Dorothy Daer; men's low, Ell Lapp. Prices in effect from April 14th to April 20, 2001 Cut From Canada AA/AAA Grades Beef EYE OF ROUND OVEN ROASTS 99 6.59/kg lb.
