A Meeting Will 4),„,fr Be 'Held Thurs.,MaY 1 8:00 p.m. Exeter Public School LIBRARY To organize Exeter men's rec fastball and slo-pitch leagues ANY INTERESTED TEAMS OR INDIVIDUALS ARE URGED TO ATTEND Notice to Osborne Township Residents The Exeter Public Utilities Commission has been test drilling in various areas of the Township in order to supplement water supply for customers of this Utility. The water customers reside in Usborne, Stephen and Hay Townships as well as in the Town of Exeter. There is concern among some residents that a well in their area will deplete the water supply. Where possible, our Utility has been able to personally contact in- dividual owners and explain the method of solving the problem, but it is im- possible to contact each one, so this notice will explain the procedure which will be identical to that taken in 1960 when the last well was constructed. (a) When an adequate supply has been located test pumping will take place. (b) During test pumping permission will be sought from the owners in prox- imity to the test pumping site td monitor their individual well levels during the test. (c) The results of this testing will be sent to the Ministry of the Environment with a request to advise the Utility of any wells that will be adversely affected by pumping. A copy can also be sent to Usborne Township Council (d) Discussion between any affected owner and the Utility will take place with two options available: • (1) The Utility to pipe water from the new pipeline to the affected farm and supply water at no charge. (2) The Utility would be responsible for either deepening the farm well or installing a new well. In the case of the municipal well installed in 1960 two wells were dug for area farmers and connected to their pressure systems with the Utility bearing all of the expense. Every well owner in Ontario, regardless whether they are form wells or municipalities, are adequately protected by law due to prior rights. It is only the surplus water that the Town of Exeter would take only after assuring that all farms that may be affected are adequately provided for. This subject has been discussed with Usborne Township Council who has taken steps to ensure protection of Usborne residents before permission was given to the Exeter Public Utilities Commission to test drill. We would reassure all of the residents that the' same policies as in past will be maintained and all existing supplies will be protected or water will be provided to replace those affected. We hope this information will relieve the concerns of farmers near the test areas. • Exeter Public Utilities Commission • •
