High water poses threat High water levels throughout the Great Lakes pose a flood threat in early fallto area lakeside communities, a lake -level report issued -last week by the US Army Corps of , Engineers shows. The report said all of. the Great Lakes •are above last year's generally -high-water marks and well above 30 - year averages. While each lake is about .3 metres (one foot) under the record levels that caused devastating spring floods in 1973, a series of rainy months corpbi•ned with • fall storms' could cause problems, a corps spokesman says. Benjamin • DeCooke, chief of the corps' Great Lakes hydraulics and hydrology branch, said more than average rain and less than average evaporation is predicted for August in the area.

GODERICH SIGNAL -STAR, THURSDAY, AUGUST 9 , 1979—PAGE 7A Tourist promotion.. • from page 6A important source of revenue, and possessing the potential to produce far greater returns, we recommended in May '78 that the three levels of government finalize plans for a major con- vention centre in Metro Toronto, which could provide information on tourist attractions throughout the province. We also proposed- the establishment in the interim of a portable information centre to be located at convention sites. In March of this year the government announced, in recognition of convention as a major source of revenue, the publication of a Con- vention and Meeting Guide detailing facilities offered by the province. This is intended as a tool to-increase-th& `umber of meetings and con- ventions in Ontario. We recommended that tourist resorts be assessed in a manner which takes into accotint the fact that vacant land is one of their most im- portant requirements. On June 8, 1978, the treasurer stated that one of the reasons market value assessment was not being proceeded with at this time was because a special way must be found to deal with land intensive recreational properties. • In May '78 we recommended that while we believed the proposed Ontario Hostelry Institute would improve the skills of people em- ployed in the hospitality industry, in- the interests of restraint, this could be done by. utilizing more fully the existing facilities at community colleges. The minister of industry and tourism subsequently announced that this training would be done through already established community college courses. A primary tourist at- traction is Ontario's fishing potential, and an inadequate restocking program is having an adverse effect. 'Therefore, we recom- mended in May '78 that the province implement a good restocking program, possibly fun- ding this from a resident fishing licence. Our support for this licence was conditional upon those revenues going directly into a restocking program - not into the Consolidated Revenue Fund. In June this year, the government an- nounced expansion of Ontario's fisheries management program to be paid for by a new resident angling licence. Finally, having found that tourist operators could be answerable to as many as 14 provincial ministries, we saw a need.:. for a central figure to co- ordinate decisions af- fecting the tourist s.ector. On June 6 '79 the Minister announced that in issues relating to tourism development, local governments would no longer be required to deal with numerous ministries. The ministry of industry, and tourism is to co-ordinate the various steps to be taken by provincial ministries involved in tourism development. St. John Ambulance, Canada's leading authority on First Aid, also teaches courses in child care, home nursing -health care for senior en`s. • WE SERVICE WHAT WE SELL AND WE SELL VOLVO & MAZDA WE ALSO SERVICE WHAT WE DON'T SELI!
