Manure danger
for watercourses
EXETER - Whenever manure is
applied to fields, there is the danger
that the manure will enter water-
courses. Our area Hasan extensive
municipal drainage network and
fields are cropped closely to water-
courses.
Manure entering a watercourse
has immediate, serious and dramatic
impacts. Manure harms not only
aquatic life, but also livestock and
human health.
If you witness manure entering a
natural or man-made watercourse,
report the activity immediately.
Time is important. There are three
agencies which you can contact.
Ontario Ministry of the Environ-
ment (OME): Spills Action Centre,
24 hours a day, anywhere in Onta-
rio: 1-800-265-6060
Huron County: 1-800-265-3783
Middlesex, Perth, Oxford and El-
gin Counties: 1-800-265-7672
The OME will co-ordinate the in-
vestigation and clean-up activities.
Local Municipality: Section 83
of the Drainage Act (an act enforced
by municipalities) states that the
don of drains is prohibited and ..,..
for non tion. -
Section 83 states: 83-(1) Except
has authorized by a by-law of the ini-
tiating municipality approved by
the Ministry of the Environment,
no person shall discharge or deposit
or permit to be discharged or depos-
ited into any drainage works any
liquid, material •r substance other
than unpolluted drainage water.
(2) Every person who contravenes
subsection (1) is guilty of an of-.
fence.and on conviction is liable to
a fine of not more than $1,000:
1975, c.79, s. 83.
(3) Ausable Bayfield Conserva-
tion Authority: 235-2610 If the
spill is taking place within the area
of jurisdiction of the ARCA, you
may notify the Authority. Al-
though spill abatement is not part
of the Authority's mandate, the Au-
thority will relay thc details to the
Ontario Ministry of the Environ-
ment and assist the OME upon the
request of the OME.
When reporting a manure spill,
complainant's confidentiality will
be ensured, but please be able to
identify the location of the spill
(lot, concession and township is
preferable).
If possible, stop the source of the
pollution immediately. Any action.
taken by thc applicator which pre-
vents further damage is a good step.

The competition left out
the most important part!
From the outside, the latest competitive.
combine looks ndw,and improved.
In fact, with its bigger, centered cab and
engine in back, it looks a lot like the combine
Case IH introduced more than ten years ago.
t look:-irrssirle;- tfrey cifil4eP :.
most important part therotary threshing
and separating system. -
The Case IH Axial -Flow* combine is designed
to hold onto more of your crop than a con-
ventional machine like theirs. Much more. The
patented multi -pass threshing and separating
system sees tolhat. It moves your harvest
from header to grain 'tank with unmatched
efficiency. And at minimal loss.
The Axial -Flow system is easier on your crops,
too, thanks to the simple, repetitive action of
the Axial -Flow single rotor. -And that gets you
top dollar for every bushel.
So why invest in a combine that gives you
write of the c1vantage se 1H Axial
Prow ---without the r>'tost important one? This
is the time to take a closer look at an Axial
Flow combine. See us today.
