County council, at its November session, agreed to go ahead with the project to recognize the bi-centennial year in Ontario. Rev. Ross Cummings of Mitchell. whose publishing firm prepared a similar pro- ject for Perth County in 1982, suggested that Huron publish about 2,000 copies of an ap proximately 154 -page book containing current informa- tion about the county. To put the project together, the county will apply for fun- ding under the Ontario Career Action Plan (OCAP) which would pay 100 percent of the salaries for two students to carry out the compiling of the Need permit for chimney Anyone who lives in Stanley Township is now• required by law to purchase a building permit when they are con- structing a chimney.

The 1984 Atlas will be similar to the 1879 atlas in that county residents will be able to participate by having information about them in the directory. When the project. was done ira Perth it cost $30 for individuals or families to be placed in the patrons' directory. Also, the county and in- dividual municipalities will be able to purchase a page or two at approximately $200 per page to record the history of the municipality. The Mitchell publisher said it cost about $48.000 in 1982 to publish the Perth atlas and a profit of about $10.000 was realized. "A lot of organization is in- volved and co-operation from historical societies, Women's Institutes and local councils is needed," said chief librarian Bill Partridge. - The chief librarian said it is hoped that the atlas will be published by September 1984 in time for selling during the Christmas season. Ile in- dicated that he had received positive comments -from the people of Perth on that coun- ty's historical atlas. Mr. Cummings concurred, noting that while mistakes were made there were generally rave reviews. "Others crucified us for making mistakes," com- mented Mr. Cummings, noting that one young Perth County bachelor had acc- peted with a sense of humor the fact that in the atlas he was given a family. Most county councillors agreed with having the atlas as a bi-centennial project.

Board likes idea of outdoor facility The Ifuron County Board of Education likes the idea of an outdoor education program. but wants the Maitland Valley Conservation Authority (MVCA) to supply the facilities. Approval in rrin.aple was given to the concept of an out- door education program at Wawanosh Valley Conserva- tion Area at the board's November 7 meeting. The hoard is suggesting to MVCA that an overnight for the atlas should be done within the space of a few months. Mr. Partridge noted that the individual municipal histories need not be long.

Director of education Robert Allan noted that a day - use area would not be as ap- pealing to many schools because they are close to areas where outdoor studies can be done. Doubts about the potential cost to the hoard for develop- inent of facilities at the Wawanosh were raised by several trustees. "We (the board) are not making any decisions regar- ding the camp. Alt we are do- ing is allowing the conserva lion authority to develop an area we might use." said education committee chair man Joan Vanden Broeck. reassuring trustees that the board wouldn't have to pay to have the area developed.

Decision reserved on dump A provincial environment hearing board Wednesday reserved decision on appeal by C.H. Lewis Ltd. regarding operation of the company's landfill site in Biddulph township. The hearing before a three- member panel headed by Toronto management consul- tant Knox Henry began May 17 but had been adjourned un- til last month duF to the il- lness of a chief witness. Henry said Wednesday it may take some time before a decision is handed down. Landfill owner Cecil Lewis obtained a ministry cer- tificate to operate the 16 -hectare, 40 -acre landfill in Biddulph Township northeast of Lucan in 1972, allowing him to accept wastes from the township and Lucan, with Parkhill added a few years later. The -certificate was extend- ed several times until the ministry imposed the condi- tion that the site be limited to wastes only from the three locations. When it discovered Lewis had continued to ex- pand his business to other municipalities, the ministry clamped down by ordering the operation cut back, the reason for the firm's appeal. SteN en Shrybman, a lawyer with the Toronto-based Cana- dian Environmental Law Association, told the three- member board Lewis and his son Larry had "systematical- ly ignored" and "misrepresented" the licens- ing provisions of its ministry certiciate and had shown a "complete disregard for the welfare of their neighbors." Shrybman, representing Erika and Peter Nippa who live next to the landfill, said the Lewises, by increasing the size of their operation during the 1970s without obtaining ministry approval, had shown little regard for either the law or the concerns of area residents. Allowing them to continue to operate the landfill "would be to allow them to profit from that deceit," said Shryb- Mrs. Vanden Broeck added that the fee schedule should be competitive enough to make it affordable . to students. Camp Sylvan, operated by the Ansa bie-Bayfield Conser- vation Authority (ABCA). is used by many r•la,ses in Huron County and has affor- dable rates. Superintendent of program Bob McCall said there is a $75 fee per class paid to ABCA to co-ordinate the outdoor educaton pro- gram at Camp Sylvan plus a $26 per student fee for three days which includes meals. Mr. McCall added that MVCA is approaching the Huron -Perth Separate School Board and the Perth County Board of Education to see if they are interested in using the proposed facility. Originally MVCA ,ked the board of education to pay for material to develop the site at an estimated cost of $4,500. The conservation authority • proposed to renovate a barn located on the site to provide a classroom and storage area plus construct improved washroom facilities. MVCA would have the labor for the improvements paid for through a government job creation program. man, who asked the board to consider that Lewis be re- quired to pay for future maintenance of the landfill in- to the next century. "The board should make it as clear as it can that this is an unlawful operation and should be stopped today." But Lewis's lawyer Stephen Garrod of Guelph said there was never any deliberate at- tempt on the part of the operator to flout the law and deceive the ministry. He said the province's environmental regulations were vague until recently and the ministry itself, created in 1971, was not even certain how they should be applied. Garrod told the board the ministry was aware during much of the 1970's that Lewis was accepting garbage from municipalities other than those it was licensed to serve but did virtually nothing about it until two years ago, although in 1977, the ministry warned Lewis any expansion of the site to municipalities of more than 1,500 persons re- quired a public hearing. In 1978, the ministry refused a Lewis request to dump gar- bage from London Township at the site. The lawyer insisted it was a matter of Lewis trying to expand his business at a time when ministry officals were trying to determine what was the law and how it should be applied. "Besides, at that time, anything he (Lewis) might have applied for would probably have been granted anyway." Lewis testified last month that his interpretation of his ministry licence to operate was that he could accept wastes from across Southern Ontario - "and Northern On- tario, too." It was this attitude and the ministry's past "cavalier" response that had surprised area residents such as the Nippas, said Shrybman, "people who looked to the ministry as their only recourse outside of going to court." The lawyer said the ministry's "soft approach" and "excessively polite" response in the Lewis matter was eventually seen as an em- barrassment, even to the ministry. Garrod also was critical of the ministry for what he said was a ministry attempt to have the appeal board make a legal determination of the case under the Environmen- DRYSDALE MAJOR APPLIANCE CENTRE LTD., SALES WITH SERVICE The Place To Buy Appliances NEW AND USED Hensall 262-2728 Closed Mondays Norznwx�na LaactIonooP WHITIN Auction Salo Sat., Nov. 26, 1983, 1:00 p.m. sharp, 157 Columbia Dr., Huron Park, Ontario.

But ministry lawyer John Tidball disagreed, pointing out -Lewis had been warned since 1977 but chose to expand the operation regardless. The public has a right to know to what extent a landfill can expand. "A line has to be drawn somewhere on Mr. Lewis's operation," said Tidball. "I don't think it's realistic for a landfill operator to be able to take wastes from everywhere in the province." Tidball noted, however, that past problems with pollu- tion from the landfill have been resolved and he repeated ministry assurances there has been no recent evidence to indicate that land- fill is contaminating nearby water, wells or an Ausable tributary stream. But Carolyn Tayler and Donna Woods, members of a township citizens' group, said there was no guarantee the operator would continue to comply with ministry regula- tions. Both women urged the board to recommend the site be closed and provisions be made to maintain the landfill into the future. g3tE rimGloo, )DpnapoEou J Locksmith DASHWOOD LOCK & KEY Brad Barnes RR 3, Dashwood 237.3426 Certified Locksmith Bonded and Insured.
