No hydro plant for Huron: Riddell
Huron -Middlesex MPP
Jack Riddell last week said
there was no truth whatever
to rumors circulating in this
area that Ontario Hydro has
decided to proceed with a
nuclear power plant along
Lake Huron somewhere
between Bayfield and Grand
Send.
One rumor even suggested
that the steel hall been or-
dered for the facility.
The Exeter Times -
Advocate contacted Riddell
at his office in Toronto on
Monday, and while he said
then he doubted there was
any truth to the stories,
volunteered to check the
matter out again.
He called back on Tuesday
to say that he had contacted
energy minister Dennis
Timbrell and the chairman of
Ontario Hydro and had been
assured no developmen is
planned.
- "They have made no
purchase of land or steel and
have no intentions of doing
so," the MPP reported.
He .said that the only land
purchased in the past year is
a one or two -acre plot near
Bayfield which will be used to
extend the Bayfield
distributing system.
He went on to say that any
nuclear plant would have ta
receive Ontario Cab;ndt
approval and would have to
have an,environmental board
hearing.

protected," Riddell con-
cluded.
