ounty handcuffed on decision
County council decided
April 29 to permit seismic
testing for oil and gas along
county road rights -of -ways,
after hearing it may have no
right to refuse.,
County Engineer Jim
Britnell .told council it
probably has no choice but to
allow the testing, though it
can impose conditions and
demand compensation for
any damages.
The tests are to be carried
out by two companies
working for Shell Canada Ltd.
They will cover the western
portion of Huron County in
addition to parts of Mid-
dlesex, Lambton and Bruce
Counties.
The procedure involved,
Mr. Britnell explained, is
drilling a borehole on the
shoulder of the r•osrt rind thrrr
inserting and exploding a
dynamite charge. Recording
equipment traces the shock
waves created by the ex-
plosion which can give clues
to locations of oil or gas
deposits,
However, the explosion
could also fracture unicipal
or field drains, hewarned,
causing damage which might
not show up for years.
He said he has obtained a
guarantee from thell it will
cover the cost of any
damages and suggested each
municipality to be tested
obtain the same assurance.
The" county can only approve
testing along its roads, he
noted. Tests along any
municipal roads must be
approved at the local level.
Questioned whether a
Agricultural to residential
Two acres of agricultural
land just south of Lucknow in
West Wawanosh Township
will be allowed to develop
residentially, following
County council's approval
last Friday of an amendment
to the county's official plan.
There is already one house
on the site, which will be
subdivided into four lots to
allow the erection of three
new houses.
J. W. Joynt of Lucknow
applied for the' amendment,
saying the small size of the
property and its location
indicates an urban function.
Reeve Ed Oddleifson of
Bayfield expressed a concern
the development might be
annexed by Lucknow, asking
for assurance "we won't lose
od speeds go metric
winter." The county has
applied for more than $51,000
in extra subsidy for winter
control costs, though it ha's
not yet received the
alloc akikpn from tltx minis -y
of transport.
The council decided- not to
support a resolution from
Essex County 'asking the
ministry to base the extra
•
subsidy on "other than the
abnormal winter of 1976."
The subsidy is hard enough
to get now, road committee
chairman Robert Lyons
declared. "If we change it
'again, we might not get it in
time for next year."
Mr. Britnell added that any
gain through changing the
funding formula would
probably be slight, since the
amount of money to be
allocated is fixed.
He also said the effects of
the severe winter on the road
and bridge construction and':
maintenance program are
not yet fully known, warning
it may be necessary to cut
back on some items to stay
within the budget.
the land".
Gary Davidson, county
planning director, told him
although Lucknow is co
operating by providing water
service and snowplowing
there has been no talk of
annexation.
Reeve Robert Lyons of
West Wawanosh Township
told council he favors
allowing development of the
land in question.
County,. council also ap-
proved a secondary plan
submitted by Goderich
Township, outlining the
direction of future
development in that
municipality.
Reeve, Ginn reported his
township is under great
pressure• from the urban
areas of Goderich, Clinton
-and Bayfield, The intent of
the secondary plan, he said, is
to remain an agricultural
community while allowing
development of certain land.
He claimed Goderich is the
first township to come up with
the rural residential.
designation for land least
suited for agriculture. This
allows development of a
density not to exceed one
dwelling per two acres.
"I think the plan suits the
majority of township
residents," Mr. Ginn told
council', recommending its
adoption.

dicated Shell probably has
the right to conduct the tests.
He added he would like to see
someone refuse, to see what
would happen.
"I'd prefer they (Shell) just
go away," he said, but added
we probably owe it to the
country, in view of the fuel
situation, to allow ex-

"Does the county get

"probably the Crown". °
