The need to expand the electrical power system in south- western Ontario remains crucial: • to provide adequate facilities to deliver power from the • Bruce NuclearRower Development (BNPD) to Ontario consumers; • to meet the growing electrical demand in southwestern Ontario to the year 2000; and • to maintain an. adequate interchange of power between Ontario Hydro and electrical utilities in Michigan. Background In 1981, Ontario Hydro conducted extensive studies of alternative system plans for the expansion of the electric power system in southwestern Ontario. An environmental assesahewit was prepared and submitted to the Ontario • government in October, 1981.Public hearings were held under the Consolidated Hearings Act early in 1982 and a plan was approv;d for more detailed investigation. However, on June 25, 1984, a decision by the Divisional Court of Ontario invalidated the findings of the 1982 public hearing. As a result Hydro staff are carrying out additional route and site selection studies in the areas shown. on the map: This information will enable detailed comparison of a number of possible route and site locations and the sub- mission of a new environmental assessment: The facilities being studied for these new areas are: • a single -circuit, a double -circuit or two single -circuit 500 -kilovolt (kV) transmission lines from Bruce NPD to a ,new Transformer Station (TS) near London; • a 500/230 kV transformer or switching station in the • London area; • a single -circuit 500 -kV line.from the London area TS to the Aberfoyle area (the•corridor studied last year and centered on Highway 401 has been widened, generally between Cambridge and Brantford); and • • 230 -kV transmission lines to connect the new London area TS with Hydro's existing 230 -kV system. Approval of Facilities Hydro plans to identify possible routes and transformer station sites early in 1985. This information will then be con- sidered in comparison with the routes and sites identified in other areas of southwestern Ontario over the past two years. An environmental assessment submission and public hearings are expected to follow. An important component to these studies is the information provided by the public. Local residents and other groups or individuals interested in the study are encouraged to participate and make their views known. Information Centres Hydro staff will be available at the following information centres to discuss the studies, answer questions and ' receive comments. Detailed maps and charts will also be available. Members of the public are invited to attend one of the centres, open from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. in the afternoon, and 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.rn. in the evening.

Editors: Jeff Wall Nikki Reavie It's that time of year again! Time to go up to the attic and•dig out the mittens, scarves and hats and fish the moth balls out of the winter coats. Along with winter comes the controversial snows. It seems all the young children love the snow because of the fun they have in it, but •all the older children can think of is the strenuous work ahead of them shovelling out driveways. - Something else which is associated with winter is the annual book fair. Each year it' is held in the library -and all the classes are invited to purchase books this Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Getting off the subject of winter, I take this op- portunity to comment on the wonderful performance put on for us Nov. 9. The name of the presentation was "Love and Work Enough" and many times it had the students doubled over in laughter. One last word and that is to tell you that the student achievement forms will be going out Nov. 23. Good luck everyone! —Nikki Reavie This week Mrs. MacRae's class has been reading about mice. They made lots of little mice to hang up around the room. For Remembrance Day they made poppies to decorate the gym for our service. Mr. Morton also read a story to the. Grade is and they learned how to get rid of all their bad dreams. —Allan Bailie Alan Morgan ,visited the school last Mofday. Mrs. Cull said everyone had a great time listening to his stories and she hopes he can come back again. Carolynne Netterfield The Grade 3s in Mrs. Martin's room have been studying a lot lately for tests since the first -term report cards are goingout this Friday. They also are looking forward to future assemblies to show off their well -matched voices. They are in pairs, comparing tones so as not to be flat for the upcoming Christmas concert. The most anticipated day since Sept. 4 was when all the pupils of Mrs. Martin's class would get perfect spelling dictationand then would celebrate with a box of chocolates. Well they did it on the day after Hallowe'en and have received their just reward. —Kira Stuckey Mrs. Szarek's class is still very busy with the com- puter. Mark Steffen brought in a nevi disc with lots of fun games. They have started a new reading lab and enjoy it very much. In art they have designed snowflakes made of styrofoam and are hanging from their room's ceiling. —John MacDonald Mr. Whiteley's Grade 6 and Mr. Bartlett's Grade 7 classes are having a citrus sale. They are covering the town and selling half -cases of Indian River grapefruit and California navel oranges. If you purchase the fruit you will receive it shortly before Christmas. In other news, Grade 6 is having an Aztec dinner today, Wednesday. They are making their own tortillas and are going to taste several Central American fruits. This will be an after- school 'activity. Several parents will be helping with the dinner. —Rose Marie Good Do you know what Mrs. Kaufman's class did last week? They used picture codes for letters to make words. They used a number of words to make a story and someone had to decode it. —Jeff Good Miss Buist's class is working with whales. In the past week the class talked about Remembrance Day and went down to the Wingham Cenotaph.. • —Mike Cullen Carolynne Netterfield and. I went to Mrs. Anderson's room to ask the children what color they like best. Andrea Congram likes the color blue and remembers it by raindrops that are in her room. Byron English's favorite color is the color of Papa Smurf. '-Heidi Robertson This week there is a change in staff at the Golden Circle. Mr. Train has left and Mrs. Redmond will be assuming his duties. Last week the gerbils disappeared and were found about a week later. The high bowler for this week is John McCormick witha two -game average of 170. r Th A lot of people calllife - "The.$urvival of the Fittest".• You know, a lot of people are right. kyr PdHMC/PS01017 T.
