(staff photo) Dispute continues at BNPD A dispute between operating engineers of Local 793 and their employer C.A. Pitts Construction continued yesterday (Tuesday) at the Bruce Nuclear Power Development. The Ontario, Labor Relations Board, however, has been requested to issue a back to work order to the 60 operating engineers at the Bruce Generating Station B construction site, according to Ontario Hydro Spokesman Don White, The request was filed,by the Electrical Power Systems Construction Association on behalf of Hydro, and C. Pitts. A similar request was made by Lummus Construction after 180 operating engineers it employs walked out to support the Pitts workers. By Tuesday only the Pitts employees were still off the job but they have received permission to picket the' entire BNPD site. So far only information lines have been set up on the two ;access roads leading to the Hydro complex at Douglas Point. Traffic has been slowed but not stopped. A union spokesman said the London Building and Con- struction trades council has given its permission to the union to picket the site. The union has filed 12 grievances with Pitts, Lummus and Hydro about complaints ranging from safety to jursidiction. The uhion maintains that some working conditions are un- safe and non-union workers have been using heavy equipment. Operating, engineers are employed toperate heavy equipment such as cranes. and earth movers. Mr. White termed the walkout a "jurisdictional dispute" between Pitts and the union. The company will not discuss the .grievances with the union until the men return to work, he said. The walkout began last Wednesday when about '6G operating engineers em - plod by Pitts gathered on access roads and didn't report to work. The next day" about 180 diperating engineers em- ployed by Lummus and a few .of the 50 employed by, Hydro stayed away from work in sympathy. As a result about 1,500 workers . from the Heavy Water Plant , construction force of 3,400 stayed off the job. On Monday traffic into the site was again slowed by information lines with about 3006 op`exating engineers still off the job with "marginal support" from other trades, Mr. White said. He' said that overall, there has been "a slight effect", on construction at the site. The union spokesman blamed Hydro for the dispute, saying the union was fed up after six months of talks. R. K.

"Let's see lots of Red, White and Blue Petunias in Goderich'' Late comer chosen as PC Candida A pian who decided only the day before to seek public office, Monday night was chosen as the Progressive Conservative candidate in Huron -Bruce riding for the June 9 Ontario election. N.J. (Sam) MacGregor, of RR 1, Kincardine, was the only person nominated at the riding associa tIon 's meeting in nomination Kincardine. The 43 -year-old land developer said he decided Sunday afternoon he would seek the nomination, ' Mr. MacGregor` said he accepted the nomination "with some reservations" as he understands the "for- midable" job ahead of him. Huron -Bruce riding has been represented by Liberal Murray Gaunt for the last 15 years. Mr. MacGregor referred to him as a "per- sonal friend" who has represented the riding with "credibility". But the riding derves to be represented by a member of the provincial legislature who sits on the government side of the house, Mr. MacGregor said. The provincial Liberal leader Dr. Stuart Smith doesn't have the credibility that the sitting member for Huron -Bruce has, he said, but Premier William Davis does. He predicted that Mr4' Davis will lead the Con- servatives to another election victory in Ontario. Mr. MacGregor said Huron -Bruce riding is im- portant to the province in both energy and food production and its im- portance can be recognized if it is represented by an MPP who sits with the government. Concerning the riding's significant energy produc- tion, at the Bruce Nuclear Power Development, he said it should be assessed ob- jectively to show where thit energy yhould be taking the province. Such objective assessment is not being made by 'op- position criticism, he said,' ,Huron -Bruce is also a 'ignifican't riding far food production and deserves representation on the Davis team so its affairs can be looked after, Mr. MacGregor said. Mr. MacGregor, who said he has "always been a Tory", first moved to the Kincardine area in 1960. He worked as an electrician for Ontario Hydro at Douglas Point for five ears tourisfd evfelo ore b,.'"
