Leachate volume up for May The volume of leachate at the Mid -Huron Landfill Site in Holmesv.ilte for the month of May this year is up consid- erably from last year. Leachate is liquid created by rainwater which falls onto the landfill and soaks into the waste and enters tiling which flows into a holding facility at the Holmesvillc site. The leachate is regularly pumped into a tanker truck and taken to a holding facility in Goderich. The recent rainy weather reflected in a total of -128,743 gallons of leachate pumped this May compared to 21,907 gallons in May 1995. Volume of garbage also affects the amount of leachate because garbage absorbs water'in a capillary action. This May's leachate num- hers are the highest since the rainy spring and summer of 1992. In May 1992, 146,000 g-allons of leachate was pumped from the landfill site. SATURDAYS BUSY As usual. summers are busier at the Mid -Huron landfill in Holmesvillc, par- ticularly Saturday mornings when the site is open from 8 a.m. to 12 noon. The site supervisor said more people are bringing in pick-up trucks full of garbage to the landfill instead of buy- ing stickers for garbage pick- up in their own municipality. Chair Cox said the hoard might be able to afford to hire more part-time help. Office manager Munnings said at the present rate of 120 vehicles on a Saturday morn- ing, that's an average of one going through every two minutes. He said it, doesn't sound like too much but each vehicle has to weigh in, weigh out, a ticket has to he printed and payment has to he made. He didn't think hir- ing an extra person 'would help because the process couldn't he speeded up. The hoard talked ahoti the pros and cons of extending - hours on Saturdays but no motion was made on the mat ter. Break and enters in Clinton There were four break -and - enters with another two attempted in Clinton on a Thursday two weeks ago, June 13. Provincial police say a $4,000 laptop computer was stolen from the Cameron Law Office. St. Pauls Anglican Church, the ST191 Oddfellow Hall and a resi- • dence were also all broken into, and attempts were made but no entry gained at Wise Insurance Brokerage and Robert Q. Travel Mart. The next day $96 in coin was also taken in another Clinton break-in, at Cooke's flower shop.

A lohe man in a beat -up half -ton truck flashed his lights continuously while fol- lowing an elderly lady south- bound from Goderich on Highway 21 around 7:30 p.m. on June 11. Police say: "finally the lady pulled over near Bayfield and the stranger advised her that she must be having wheel troubles as her car was sway- ing back and forth all over the road. He claimed he was a service manager and he would get her a discount on the repair job. "He then left to obtain parts. No money changed hands. The lady in the inter- im contacted her husband and they took the car to a local repair shop where it was determined that there was no problem with the rear of the car."
