Clinton News-Record, 1980-12-24, Page 26AGE NN conservation 4uthoritr revises fl�od warningplan AUSable-Bayfield Conservation Authority approved . 4 motion at their general meeting recently to inStall a revised flood warning system, costing •$56,700i over a fiveeyear period on streams in, the area subject to flooding. One of tbei gauges to monitor potential flood conditions will be in- stalled on Silver Creek, upstream from Seaforth. Other gauges, which can provide hourly readings, will be installed on Mud Creek, upstream from Port Franks; at Varna, to provide a six to eight hour warning to Bayfield residents in the event of a flood and at Parkhill to provide advance warning for Grand Bend, Bill Mungall, authority resources manager, said while the authority now has a flood warning program in effect, ad- vances in technology have made the system obsolete. The new gauges, will be' monitored by a central computer terminal at the authority's head office in Exeter. Mr. Mungall said $15,000 has been included in this year's budget to start installation of the new gauges. The first two will be installed at Port Franks and the Klondike area south of Grand Bend. The resources manager said hopefully municipalities within the authority will draw up pre -arranged emergency plans in case --of flood 'danger warnings. He said the only municipality which now has a con- tingency plan on paper is Bosonquet Township, in Lambton County. John Schwindt of the authority staff, in- troduced members to the new Erosion Control Assistance Program, available to anyone owning land in the Ausable-Bayfield watersheds. The program is designed to help lan- downers deal with minor erosion problems, and to help them 'preserve soil and reduce watercourse sedimentation. Mr. Schwindt said the authority will help lan- d 6Vvii-ers draw up -designs for projects involving streambank i m - provement, sheet, rill and gully erosion, and im- proper tile outlets. The Authority will also provide financial assistance to aid in the completion of approved projects. Mr. Schwindt asked authority members to alert landowners to the program. He said authority staff would like to find some appropriate sites to start 'working on, excluding municipal drains or lakefront erosion. The authority will pay 50 per cent of the cost incurred during com- pletiort—of--the—e-ro control project, lip to a maximum of $1,000. When the project is completed, the authority will erect a sign to identify the project. In other business, the authority members approved a motion to adopt the bayfield Erosion Control and Slope Stabilization Study as a 1981 project. The Goderich road, which parallels the south bank of the Bayfield River, was sliding into the river, and the authority will spend $5,000 for sheet piling to prevent further erosion. Authority, members also approved a motion to proceed with the next phase of the Grand Rend Erosion Control Project. The $4,000 program will implement erosion controls along the river from the Brazier property through to the Green Forest Motel. The authority also voted to make im- provements both to the authority's headquarters on Thames Road in Exeter, and to th Mrs till pap 7A • con), vtrawas AY, DECEMBER 24,1980 All A&P stores will be CLOSED C1 • rot as Price, offective.thru Saturda)r, December 27t11, 1910 • GARDEN COCKTAIL 28 -fl -oz bottle 1 We reserve the right to HMO quontities to normal family requiremenbl a\ SAVE 1.10 A superblilend, rich in BriUTffI COFFEE 1-lb bag (Our Regular Price 3.79) 3 -Ib bag 7.99 (Our Regular Price 99c) (Our Reg Price 11.293.30) — SAVE ‘IlliallIMMII11111111111011111111111111111111111.1111111 iini11011111/111111111111.1111/11/111/111111111/MM111111 -1 rrItirg COME VISIT 40E FA FRESHNESS w FOR Ez:cmyet(mpAar, 401111111at A&P & SAVINGS Fresh!
