Can it support a; Oatnping radial'?Does it require road kn. pmovements? How many tourists can it handle? These and similar questions were the topics for discussion,, debate and tentative resolution at a recent seminar -workshop on the IIuliett Wildlife Management Area. Over 50 persons attended last Thur- sday's meeting to present their views' and represent their in- terest groups to the Wingham office of the Ministry of Natural Resources that has charge of the developtner and main- tenance of the reserve. Ministry officials Dan Mansell, district manager of the Wingharii office, district biologist Rene Jones and planner Wendy McNab presented the history of the area, the preliminary' master plan for development and the issues to be resolved. Mr. Mansell stressed that the master plan was by no means the final version, since it would require much rewriting prior to final authorization from the head office. "We want your ideas," he told the audience, "we are not going to decide what's going to happen today." Miss McNab explained that the master plan was "to act as a focus ... just a first attempt ... we need more input from the public, constructive criticism, comments and feedback."

The necessity for road im- provement was also questioned by ministry representatives. Reeve Jewitt, however, said 'It's good enough for us to use, but we're ready to co-operate."

Hunting • The compatibility of hunting on the HWMA with con- servation goals was also questioned by all those present.

He said he felt the the drainage situation; "They ministry was trying to "use the, don't know what the ministry's t area fo`rtwo different ends. 4.. plans are ... it's a concern." Opposing viewpoints were n Ministry officials agreed that "there would have to be some policy, some agreement with farmers bordering the area who have to include the area for drainage." hydro -electric P 1 proposition was included among the relevant issues of the master plan, since "hydro- electric power lines constitute a hazard to birds in flight," it stated. Costs for relocating the two power lines presently crossing the wildlife area were quoted at approximately. d th question of relocation: "I feel the Ministry had better decide they're not going to move them." He asked that the ministry representatives consider the effect of such a move. "They're an undesirable element wherever they are," he said.

Mr. Mansell explained "We know it's a problem, but we feel we can `that's a problem, so we don't want to do it'." Mr. Jones also suggested that the two interests were not incompatible: "Our goal is wildlife oriented recreation, but hunting is not in conflict with the educational aspect. It is a. legitimate form of recreation, and in some instances can be ,used as a management tool ... There is a wide gap between the people that hunt and peep show that both groups require the same things, namely, respect • for habitat reproduction ...

Mr. Robinson suggested L a decision on this subject be left till later. "Isn't this something you could play by ear?" he in asked, keds adding g Give the others a chance first ... if nobody does anything and you still feel a need for it, then you can still do it." Maurice Beane of the Huron County Federation of Agriculture jokingly proposed another alternative: "For the benefit of some parents, wouldn't it be a help not to have eats'herwat=all?'t.. The use of the area for seasonal recreation was heatedly debated. Reeve Jewitt suggested that "on 6,000 acres there's room for a lot of things."Miss s McNab of the Ministry of Natural Resources explained, however, that • "dams and dikes will cut out some of the area ... and in the winter we would like to provide snowshoe and cross-country skiing trails which are more compatible with wildlife viewing than is snowmobiling." Mr. Graul expressed similar views, stating that "I don't think it's our job to—make glorified snowmobile trails ... I don't think this is the idea of , it," Mr.. Singleton also suggested that "wheel vehicles are rough on terrain and on breeding sites." He cited compaction as a major con- sideration, and said he hopes "they would be given a specific area of specific trails" if �i v'mobiling is ultimately permitted. llriore Work The planning and. develop- mental preparations for the HWMA are by no means • complete.
