storage from the Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food, and the Ministry of
the Environment.
Hallett Township had earlier put a peti-
tion before McKillop Township to be endors-
ed. The petition was to get farmers in the
Bayfield portion of the authority to be able
to apply for, and receive grants for, manure
storage facilities that farmers in the
Ausable portion of the authority were
receiving.
-As Mr. Prout explained, OMAF will cover
40 per cent of costs for manure storage
facilities up to $7,500, but there were extra
grants available to farmers in the Ausable
watershed: These extra funds were provid-
ed by the Ministry of Environment because
some beaches in the Ausable watershed had
been forced to close for health reasons. To
•get the beaches back open the Ministry of
Environment made extra funding available
to improve manure storage in the water-
sheds where beaches were closed.
Hallett Township is proposing all farmers
in the Conservation Authority be able to get
the same grants, but their proposal has yet
to be approved.
VOUCHER APPROVED
The road superintendent's voucher for
$9,995.18 was approved for payment as were
the general accounts in the amount of
$80,828.20.
The council also appointed B. M. Ross and
Associates Limited to start a bridge study.:
The subject will be Grieve's Bridge located
on Concession roads 4 and 5, Lot 25. The
study will determine how safe the bridge is
and what its legal load limitshould be.
Tile drainage loans were approved for
payment in the amount of $67,300. • •
Tax refunds for this year amounted to
$381.12 for buildings that were demolished.
