Times Advocate, 1989-09-27, Page 26Page 26 Times -Advocate, September 27, 1989 . Jack's Jottings Jack Riddell MPP Huron From Oueen's Park Environmental waste management Every day, every man, woman and child in Ontario produces more than two pounds of waste. That's more than twenty million pounds of waste every single day. Our landscape is littered with 1,500 or so landfill sites, many al- most full. They are piled high with manufactured products used only once and then discarded. Incredibly, one third of all the waste we generate/is packaging of some sort. To combat this waste, Ontario is committing unprecedented re- sources to recycling. To win the war on waste, the Government will put its own house in order. This means purchasing recycled prod- ucts, restricting non -recyclable goods within government, and maxi- mizing recycling of materials such as office paper and cafeteria waste. Trained Environment Ministry staff will offer telephone assistance on technical matters such as interpretation of regulations, funding programs, technology data sources from around the world, and names and addresses of operators of similar facilities or programs. The hot line will be initiated in 1990 and will become a hub of in- formation -sharing on recycling issues. By 1991, Ministry technical staff trained in waste. reduction and recycling technologies will be available to visit plants and munici- palities to offer on -the -spot information and recommendations. The Farm Implements Act The Farm Implements Act will be proclaimed January 1, 1989. The Farm Implements Act has been developed in response to the concerns of farmers and farm implement dealers across Ontario. It is a progressive piece of legislation and will prove advantageous to all parties involved in buying and selling farm machinery. The act, which received royal assent in December 1988, regulates the sale, service, warranty and safety requirements of farm imple- ments. It provides for the return of defective new farm implements by farmers and for the orderly termination of dealer -distributor agreements. Huron County photo contest For those of you interested in entering the Huron County .calendar photo contest which I am sponsoring, my offices have begun accept- ing entries. They may be mailed or dropped off at any of my riding offices in Exeter, Goderich or Wingham, or sent to me care of the Legislative Building, Queen's Park, Toronto M7A 1A2. Guidelines arc as follows: * Scenes should be from Huron County or surrounding area. Pref- erence will be given to scenes which best reflect the character and lifestyle of Huron County. * Photographs can be current, or older ones of historical interest. * Black and white reproduces much better than coloured, although the latter can be used. * Because cost prohibits me from printing in colour, the most ef- fective photos will be those which rely on composition rather.than colour. * A total- of 12 photos will be chosen; each entrant receives a prize. * All photographs will be returned to the owner following the pub- lication of the calendar. * All photographs must be marked clearly with the location of the subject matter; and the name, address, and telephone number of the person entering the photo. * Deadline for entries is Friday, November 3.
