A special meeting of the Whitechurch Water System was held last Monday in the Presbyterian Church Sunday Making changes to a watercourse? The waters of rivers, streams and creeks belong to everyone. Improper use of the watercourses which carry these waters may result in the following - - drainage and irrigation problems for neighbours - erosion and flooding, problems - destruction of aquatic and wildlife habitat - reduce recreational opportunities Whenever permanently flowing watercourses are to be altered in any way including damming, diverting and channelization, Federal and Provincial laws require that the approval of the Ministry of Natural Resources be obtained. As a first step in planning work on a watercourse, contact us. Our staff will be glad to discuss possible design and layout alternatives which will minimize future problems for you, your neighbours and the public in general.

Although the Apps Mill Nature Centre had been equipped for the han- dicapped, funds previously had not been available to construct a trail for use by the handicapped. Both the trail and the nature centre are open to the public on weekends during June and all week during July and August.
