These tests were conducted specifically for phenols, cholorides, magnesium and calcium. According to the Town of Goderich's Com- missioner of Works, Ken Hunter, "There weren't any problems (concerning the water) or the ministry would have done something." A sketch map was also included. in one of Wilson Associates reports that showed the approximate locations of recorded wells in a one kilometre radius of Holmesville. This map has 20 wells numbered on it. Another concern residents had regarding their water suppty was the amount of smoke that goes into their wells. One man asked, "What about the smoke and stuff that goes into the wells?" Mr. Bye replied, "If that's the case, the 42. -ENGAGEMENTS Mlddegael COME SEE OUR SHOWROOM •SPAS•POOLS•PATIO FURNITURE 234 MAIN ST. N.

He then went on to say that there is an in- grown fire on site that is being looked at. Another man suggested that the fires were caused by methane gas and Mr. Bye said that if that was so, there would be ex- plosions. In response, the audience said a collective, "There are." ACCESS One aspect that had a more positive note to it was the -access to the dump of late. The hours were restricted, controlling the dump- ing and covering of waste better. One man• compared the Holmesville operation to bre he had seen in the Petrolia area. "I drove by the Petrolia landfill site, and short of seeing the truck dumping and ., another covering it, I wouldn't have known it (was a landfill site)." Mr. Bye said, "I've already said we're not happy with the control of the site as of late..."

Another element of dumping discussed at the meeting concerned chemicals. "I take it this is not a chemical dump?" questioned a Holmesville resident. When Mr. Bye said that it wasn't the ques- tioner asked why fiberglass barrels were allowed to be dumped at the site. "And that's obvious, how much is there that's not obvious?" he asked. Mr. Bye's reply was to bring that fact to the Ministry of Environment's attention. R9ts and dump dogs at the landfill site m have caused Holmesville residents much concern. Referring to the dogs, one gentleman said, "I'm constantly shooting them..." As for the rats, Peggy Parks referred to a statement by Goderidh Township Reeve Grant Stirling which appeared in the weekly papers on December 16. The paragraph said that Holmesville was having problems with rats, but the situation had been rectified. Mrs. Parks disagreed with that statement. Goderich Township Councillor Laurie Cox said that he agreed that the problem with the rats was not visible at the site, but it was in the village while others told about driving over rats on the highway and in the hamlet. As for the covering of the waste, both Mr. Bye and Mr. Farrell said the required six in- ches was not being used. "We've already said it is not a sufficient operation, what more can we say," said Mr. Bye. As well as the visual problems, Millie Lobb says there is another problem. "I live five miles away, and in the sum- mer I can't even open my bedroom window at night. What about the people down here (in the hamlet)?" she asked. LIMrT hfUNICIPALPCTFS Alison Lobb spoke on the financial aspect of closing the existing site. She said that Goderich Township is "so generous to invite everyone to dump garbage" at the site, she hoped that they would share the cost of dos- ing it. She also said that if the site is closed down and another opened, the alternative would be to restrict use to Goderich Township residents. She was then remined by Brigitte Char- ron, a meeting organizer, that the site was originally opened by three municipalities - Goderich Township, Goderich and Clinton. As well these are the only three names on the certificate even though Lucknow, Col- borne Township, Bayfield and part of Tuckersmith are using the site. The remaining portion of Tuckersmith as well as Seaforth are hoping to be allowed in- to the proposed site. Sumfning up the point of the meeting, resi- dent Karl Brall said, "There is a proposal to make the dump bigger, yet everybody has complaints and the ministry has concerns. "We don't want to expand the site, we're trying to stop it - that's why we're here. "There are rats and smoke...When I'm coming home from work at 8 a.m. I can't even see my house. „The ministry says they check it three times a year, well come and live with me. There's a problem there, what do we have to do to stop it?" Mr. Bye said that until recently, the ministry had received only a few complaints concerning the dump. "Up until August of '87 we've recorded receiving three or four complaints on the operation of this site. "There are six officers with 55 sites to cover as well as our other work. When we do receive complaints, we try to respond as quickly as we can. There are 15 landfill sites in Huron County, this is the biggest - we try to respond to any complaint in 24 hours." SHUT DOWN The question was asked whether or not the group gathered at the church conld close the landfill site down. Mr. Bye said, legislative- ly, ratepayers can't. "The Ministry of Environment has closet' sites down because of the impact on the area, but never because of poor operation • but I'm not saying they can't." Mr. Bye then asked if the residents want to close the site down completely, "What will you do with the 11,000 people who are in there?" Mrs. Charron said, "If it is closed, we'd be more than willing to give them one year to find a suitable site. After the one year, it would be closed down." Although the audience found that sugges- tion very satisfying, Mr. Bye said it would take three to five years to open the gates of a new site. The Holmesviile Landfill Site Committee consists of representatives from each of the municipalities' councils, however, there is not a representative on the committee who resides in Holmesville. Therefore, it was decided to elect two people to sit on the com- mittee, if it was allowed. Along with Bill Clifford of Goderich, Gord Gerrits of Clinton, Grant Stirling and Laurie Cox of Goderich Township, Cliff Freeman of Bayfield, Ab Murray of Lucknow and Grant MacPhee of Colborne Township, it is hoped Mr. Brall and Mrs. Charron will be allowed to sit on the committee-
