A loc* I -citizens' groSup is . hoping
protest signs that say, "Stop the wind
turbines!" from Wind Concerns On-
tario will turn up the HEAT on 'the
issue in the St. Columban area.
Huron East Against Turbines
(HEAT) representatives distributed
50 of the. $4 signs last• week and is
ordering another 100 for anyone who
wants to display one.
"If we can flood the area with signs
everywhere people look, it will show
the solid4rity of the community'
against the project and show the
landowners who are leasing their
land for the project how we feel," says
HEAT representative Rob- Tetu.
"When people see the sign they'll
know they're not the only ones that
don't want the turbines," adds Tom
Melady, another member of HEAT.
The signs are the latest lobbying
effort of the HEAT group, which has
collected 340 signatures on a petition
asking for a moratorium on the two
wind projects proposed for the St.
Columban area.
Currently the group is composing a
response with the help of their law-
yer Kristi Ross to the Mifiiiitry of the
Environment . and the Environmen-
tal Registry on the environmental
screening report recently completed
Engineering
tion, which is planning to build the
two five -turbine wind projects.
As well, HEAT is making recom-
mendations to the Green Energy Act
regulations with the Ministry of the
Environment..
Clare Murray, a fourth year law
student from St. Columban, has been
going door to door in the area asking
residents to make their own respons-
es to the province by July 23 for the
CASA environmental screening re-
port and by July 24 for the Green En-
ergy Act regulations.
"People are sending
in responses, which .is
really encouraging,"
she says.
Murray says it's
been a _ difficult and
frustrating process to
respond to the prov-
ince because of the
inaccessiblity of the
language and infor-
mation about dead-
lines.
"The whole process
that supposedly en-
ables people to com-
ment . is frustrating.
The wind industry and
the government have
been working on this
for years but you have
government will make the best deci-
sion
will make the deci-
sion possible for the public which will
reflect our concerns," shi says.
A new "young HEAT". group has
also started up to represent young
St. Columban area farmers with con-
cerns about the proposed wind proj-
ects.

An eye-catching exterior, with river -rock
accents, an upstairs deck and a mini -porch,
gives this three-bedroom home its street
appeal. With entry on the ground floor, this
design would be particularly suited to a lot with
a view from the front.
The interior layout is well thought-out for family
living, with the Informal areas getting lots of
space.
In the great room, a vaulted ceiling increases
the feeling of spaciousness, as does the
boxed -out window. The gas fireplace's cozy
glow can be enjoyed in every comer of the
family -living area.
The spacious kitchen has a pantry, as well as
ample countertop ann1 cupboard space to
streamline meal preparation. A door leads to a
covered patio at the rear.
In the dining area, a raised eating bar along
the kitchen counter will seat four with ease. An
optional buffet offers useful extra space for
storage and serving, and a sliding glass door
opens to a sundeck at the front.
