- armour, President of the
• n,tario. Federation of
Agriculltur,.e recently.
• The Feed Freight
Adjustment Prqgram
originates with the removal
• of the feed freight assistance
rates in 1976, in most of
Ontario. The funds saved by
this action of the Federal
'Government over a five year
• period will be used to develop
the livestock industries in the
provinces affected.
"OFA is very pleased with
the two programs Mr, Whelan
has announced for Ontario. In
fact the major incentive
• program for grain • storage
and handling was recom-
mended by OFA when the
availability of funds was first
made known. The Ontario
Ministry of Agriculture and
"Food, . in -consultation with
OFA, worked out the
proposals that have been
implemented by Mr,
Whelan," said Mr. Hannam.
The first program is one of
incentives which will be
available for farmers to build
storages• for grain or high
moisture grain, corn silage
and haylage, dryers, per-
manently installed grain
handling devices (augers,
conveyors, legs) and feed
preparation and distribution
. systems including scales.
This incentive will be a
direct payment from the
federal government to the
farmer of 30 percent of ap-
proved capital expenditures
up to a maximum of $1,500
per farm. Total cost of this
program over five years is
estimated at $13.4 million.
The second program will
e involve the federal govern -
he ment funding tests and
demonstrations of new low-

Energy Board hearingsinto
the Cost and Pricing of
.Electricity, through the
Ontario Municipal Electric
Association (O.M,E.A.). The
hearing, to be held in Toronto
and which will begin on
Monday. May 16, 1977, is
expected to last several
months. The .announcement
wasmade by Mr. Harry
Worsell, Chairman of the
Goderich Public Utilities
Commission
• "The members of• the
Commission believe that the
group intervention is the most
logical and effective method
of .obtaining the best
representation possible. It
does not add to already high
costs by the duplication of
effort, nor, does it prolong the
time span of the hearings.
These represent additional
costs that would ultimately Ee-
reflected through the electric
bills of all of our customers, "
explained Mr. Worsell:
The O.M.E.A. has
developed an intervention
team comprised of legal
counsel knowledgeable in
energy matters, -energy
consultants, commissioners
and municipal management
people who have been
preparing for the hearing for
many months, • studying the
ten volume report on the
Costing and Pricing study
that will form the basis of the
hearing. The objective of the
intervention team is to obtain
the Costing and Pricing
system best suited to the
needs of the municipal
utilities and their residential,
Icomniercial and industrial
customers.
The O M..E.A. is the
spokesman for more than 340
municipal utilities in Ontario;
the • .commissioners and
councillors of • which
represent more than 'two
million residential, com-
mercial ana industrial
customers served by 'the

OFA's annual brief to the
