Another bomb
threat at BNPD
Another bomb threat at the
Bruce Nuclear Power
Development Tuesday
morning turned out to be a
hoax.
BNPD spokesman Don
White told The News that the
switchboard at Lummus
Construct;on received' call
from a male voice at about
7:20 a.m. warning that there
would be an explosion.
"The plant is going up," the
voice said.
Mr. White said the . con-
struction sites of heavy water
plants B and D were
evacuated. About one third to
one half of the 3,400 workers
were already at the sites.
Work normally starts at 7:30
a.m.
The workers waited in the
parking lot while security and
safety personnel searched the
sites for bombs. None were
found.
Workers were back on the
job shortly after 8 a.m.
Kincardine OPP are in-
vestigating.
Several bomb threats were
made at BNPD last year
during the summer and fall
but all proved to be hoaxes.

munication agree to fund the
project now. In a special
meeting with members of
Goderich town council and
town engineer Burns Ross,
the utility's costs for the
widening were outlined and
the cost sharing program
discussed.
Ross said the ministry had
an unusual system for setting
down cost sharing' on con-
struction of municipal road
connecting two portions of
provincial highway. He said
the ministry paid 90 percent
of the costs of relocating
existing power lines and
water mains.
He quickly added however
that quite often the age of the
lines 'and mains prevents
them from being moved in-
tact which means the town
must upgrade the services.
He explained that the
ministry pays 90 percent of
the costs for moving existing
lines and added costs for new
.equipment is the to.wn's
responsibility.
PUC manager Dave
Rolston said the utility may
face about $200,000 in ex-
penses updating the services
pointing out that the actual
costs and the amount the
ministry is willing to pay are
two different figures.
Rolston said the PUC is
looking at installing new
services for houses on
Bayfield Road and relocating
many existing services. He
said many of the services had
to be. moved from the front of
the house to the rear and that
some had to be buried. He
said the costs for h,dro ex-
clusive of street ' lighting
would be around $65,000.
New water mains and some
new services also have to be
installed along the roadway
and will be put in when it is
dug up for the widening

project. He said the PUC will
be deepening some water
mains and renewing services
at a cost of about $60,000.
Street lighting is the third
major costs to be born by the
utility and is possibly the
most expensive. The ministry
will pay some of the
relocation costs for street
lighting on a connecting.link
but will pay no portion of new
lighting. The town Is looking
at a deal that willipnable it to
use some of the existing
lighting on The Square and
combine it with 50 new lights
to replace the antique lights
in use now.
The lights on The Square
may be replaced as part of a
beautification prollect in the
core and the PUC and council
may, if the project goes
through, put an additional
$48,000 in the pot to buy the
remaining fixtures to light
from Bennett Street to the
Textral Fibre plant.
Rolston said his crew is'
working now to get the poles
erected for the southern
portion of the roadway and
will be trying to get the
remainder of the work done
by the end of 1977. He said the
ministry will be notifying the
town about funds by August 1
giving the PUC two months
lead time to order equipment
and two months to install it to
get it completed by the end of
the year.
Two other paving projects
were discussed at the special
meeting. -Ross said the town
would have to install an eight

bons Street to Bayfield Road
