Private involvement possible if project feasible
Construction could begin in 1978
These two spectators at the Jubilee Three plaque un-
veiling at the town hall Friday don't seem impressed
with the ceremony. Premier William Davis was in town
to unveil the special plaque and the youngster at the top
enjoyed the ceremony from a vantage point in a window
above the front steps of the town hall while the woman
opened her office window next door to town hall taking
advantage of the warm weather and the historic occasion
to end her work week. (staff -photo)

A status report on the
Kincardine project has been
released by Ontario Energy
Minister James Taylor as a
result of information
provided by the joint steering
committee which is co-
ordinating planning for the
project. The Kincardine
project is a study to deter-
mine the conditions under
which suitable greenhouse
heating and fish rearing
facilities could be developed
by using reject heat from
Bruce Nuclear Power
Development.
Should the study suggest
that the project is feasible, it
is hoped that the private
sector will participate in the
design, construction,
ownership, financing and
operating of the facilities.
If this involvement is forth -
corning, then construction
could begin sometime next
year.
Taylor, who recently
returned from a study tour of
European developments in
energy, was very impressed
with the way some European
countries take full advantage
of reject heat created by the
electric power generating
process.
Taylor said he would like to
see maximum use made of
this energy potential in
Ontario where it is economic.
The Steering Committee
was established by the
t d.
Ontario Government earlier
this year to consider the
potential uses of rejected heat
from the Bruce Nuclear
Power Development.
The Steering Committee
reports that a study, which is
being undertaken by con-
sultants Conestoga -Rovers
and Associates, of Waterloo,
in conjunction with Ontario
Hydro, is progressing well
and is expected to be sub-
mitted to the steering com-
mittee in November.
Important aspects of the
Kincardine study are to
examine the economic and
technical feasibility and to
assess the commercial
potential in order to promote
interest by the private sector
in developing the necessary
facilities.
Once the study is com-
pleted, it will be examined by
the steering committee to
determine what further
action is appropriate.
The steering committee,
which is chaired by the
Deputy Minister of Energy,
has broad representation
from other provincial
ministries, Ontario Hydro
and from the communities
where the development could,
take place.
Warden Andrew Cormack -
of Bruce County, Reeve Alvin
Thompson of the Township of
Kincardine and Councillor
Brian Grant of the Town of
Kincardine, are local
members of the Committee.
Other members represent the
Ministries of Natural
Resources, Agriculture and
Food, and the Resources
Secretariat as well as the
Ministry of Energy and
Ontario Hydro.
LAUNCHED LAST
MAY
The Kincadine project,
which was first launched by
the Government last May at
the suggestion and with the
support of the local com-
munities involved, has
already sparked wide interest
across the province.
Similar projects are being
suggested and actively
considered by local officials
from communities adjacent
to Ontario Hydro's scheduled
Darlington and Atikokan
generating stations. The
Darlington Generating
Station is in the first stages of
construction near
Bowmanville on Lake
Ontario, and work is to begin
early next year on the
Atikokan Generating Station
at Marmion Lake about 120
miles west of Thunder Bay.
Although Atikokan is fueled
--by coal and not a nuclear -
fired power plant, it would be
possible to develop a similar
heat conversion process.
Basically, the project at
Bruce involves using warm
water from the moderator
cooling water system of the
nuclear reactors which
otherwise -would be rejected
into the lake, and using it to
heat greenhouses and
aquaculture facilities. In this
way, oil could be conserved
and, at the same time, food
production increastk and
