Heartland Credit Union commercial/agricultural account manager LarryAment camped on the roof for 30 hours while donations poured in. Last year Ament was on the roof for 26 hours, raising $1,500. Altogether in 2005 the Exeter branch raised $13,000 for the Children's Health Foundation. Regional senior manager of marketing and administration Bob Saxby says every year they think of creative ways to raise money. Putting together a cook book featuring recipes submit- ted by the community, setting up a dunk tank, holding a penny sale and automatic payroll deductions are some of the ideas. Children's Health Foundation development officer Tracy Robinson says they are pleased with the fundraising ideas, calling them "clever and integrated with the com- munities we serve." Pledges were still coming in as of last Friday. (photo/Nina Van Lieshout) r - HAY'S AUTOMOBILE RECONDITIONING OPEN MON.

MUNICIPALITY OF BLUEWATER CLASS ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FOR WATER SUPPLY IMPROVEMENTS TO THE HENSALL WATER WORKS NOTICE OF STUDY COMPLETION AND PUBLIC INFORMATION CENTRE The Municipality of Bluewater has conducted a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) to determine the best solution for a long term municipal water supply for the com- munity of Hensall. The project is needed to bring the existing municipal water system into compliance with new provincial regulations and to ensure an adequate municipal water supply for both existing and future development activities. As an outcome of the study, Council has chosen connection to the Lake Huron Primary Water Supply System (LHPWSS) as the best long term water supply for Hensall. The project will involve the construction of a transmission watermain to connect the Hensall Water Works to a supply main that will serve the community of Exeter. The project may also require the con- struction of a booster pumping station near the community centre and modifications to exist- ing pumping and storage facilities on York Street. A preferred route for the transmission main has been identified and is shown on the accompa- nying key plan. The route generally follows Airport Line from Huron Street in Exeter, to the Hensall-Zurich Road (County Road 84). It will begin at a booster pumping station to be con- structed at the intersection of Huron Street and Airport Line and terminate in the vicinity of the Hensall Community Centre. A Public Information Centre is planned for the purpose of providing further information to the public and receiving input from interested persons regarding the study and the proposed works. Date: Tues., Sept. 19, 2006 Time: 7 pm to 9 pm ( no presentation) Place: Hensall Community Centre All those with an interest in the project are urged to attend. The project is following the planning process set out for Schedule B activities under the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) document. Schedule B projects are approved subject to a screening process which involves consultation with public and review agencies to ensure the project can be carried out in an environmentally -sound manner. The screening process has been completed for this project. There were no negative impacts identi- fied with the proposed works that could not be mitigated. A Screening Report has been pre- pared to document the study process. The report is available for review at the Bluewater Municipal Office, 14 Mill Street, Zurich, Ontario (during normal business hours) and the Hensall Library Branch. It is also posted on the municipal website: www.town.bluewater.on.ca.
