LEAF SPOT
Mark Coulthard
If your lawn is being watered and fertilized correctly but still seems yellowish. this
yellowing could be due to Leaf Spot disease This disease is a fungus that
attacks the blades of the grass
Leaf Spots are small circles with yellow centres and dark borders These spots
are dotted along the leaf blade. This disease can be a problem when the weather
is cool and moist Leaf Spot occurs most often in lawns that are mowed quite
short
A fungicide application is usually not necessary on a home lawn Most modern
bluegrass lawns are resistant to this disease If your lawn is affected. increase
your mowing height, water deeply and less frequently Apply y'rur fertilizer a little
later in the spring An additional light aoolicatlon pf fertilizer can help stimulate the
lawn to heal faster Most lawns grow out of this problem as the days get hotter

THE PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION OF EXETER
CLASS ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
WATER WORKS EXPANSION PROJECT
OCWA PROJECT NO. 53-0148-01
NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING/OPEN HOUSE
The Exeter P.U.C. is planning a project to provide additional water supply for the Town. A study
following the requirements of the Class EA for Municipal Water and Wastewater Projects (June
1993) has been examining alternative methods of expanding the water supply and storage
facilities.
A Public Meeting/Open House has been scheduled to present the preferred alternative and to
obtain public comment on the proposal.
DATE: Tuesday, June 28, 1994
TIME: 8:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.
PLACE: Upstairs - Old Town Hall
322 Main Street South
There will be a formal presentation at 8:00 p.m. Representatives of the P.U.C. and the Consulting
Engineers will be available to answer questions.
At this time, the preferred alternative is to extend the existing Township of Stephen system, which
currently serves Crediton, to the Exeter Boundary. Works within Stephen would be owned and
operated by the Ontario Clean Water Agency
In addition, it is proposed to expand the existing ground -level reservoir located in MacNaughton
Park.
