n estimated 100 persons,
resenting the counties of
,• _Won, Perth, Waterloo, and
• Wellington, attended the annual
- birth.
r meeting of the Mid -Western On
Development ssocia ion,
held Wednesday at Stratford,
• Early in the afternoon they
heard C. S. MacNaughton, MPP
• for Huron, and a member of
. .1
-1 the Ontario Water Resources
r Commission, predict that the
e Grand River will be cleared of
pollution within two years.
William McKenzie, chairman
for the meeting, retired as pre -
e• siclent of MWODA at the close
i.' of the meeting, and surrendered
r.,;, his gavel to e newly elected
president. H. C. Goes of Pres-
ton.
The retiring president said,
"The work accomplished in the
past year is simply a pioneer-
.; ing attempt, in comparison with
the work that must, and will,
:r be done in the future."
1 "I believe," he continued,
"that the tourist brochure, re -
r3 leased by the organization a
few months ago, will help to
promote the tourist industry in
our four -county region. Most
•,e important, it willput cash
e., money into the pockets of the
eer merchants in the contained mu• nicipalities."
ei Work of OWRC
,,,f Mr. McKenzie introduced Mr.
ret MacNaughton, whose topic was,
"Water Resources Surveys for
el the area." In his address, he
outlined the work and accom-
el plishments of the OWRC in the
r fo • ;county region of MODA.
+ream surveys are run on
i. enajor rivers in this area
at least once a year. This pro-
gram enables a long-term eval-
• uation of the sanitary condition
•of the main watercourses. Some
• of the rivers so treated are the
Ausable, the Maitland, the
Saugeen, the North Thames,
,e- the Grand, the Speed, the Nith,
1 . the Conestoga, and the Luck -
110w.
First objectives
• "Two focal points of the com-
mission's attack on stream pol-
,
t' lution, at 'L. .
t t 1957,
were •the Credit and the Grand
i'. rivers. By mid -1960, the corn-
: ' mission. announced th. t the
Credit was just about cleaned
up. With continuing co -opera-
- tion of municipalities and in-
dustries along the Grand River,
ee we continued in en attempt to
lel return that waterway to a con -
r • dition where it would be fit for
I .t, all normal human use. We are
of the opinion that the Grand
!,,: Inver willwbe. cleared of pollu-
tion macislanugtisivtoon.years," said 1
c He explained the aims of the
Ontario Water Resources Coin
mission, as set down in the or
ginal at of legislation tha
brought about the commission'
. Legislature, last month,
i- This bill is impertant be-
cause it provides for regulating
s the taking of water from any
sourceof supply, for the first
time in Ontario, he said. ,
"The description of the perti-
nent clauses ,eeads: The new
section, 28A, of the Ontario
Water Resources Cemmission
Act, provides for regulating
the water from -any source of
supply. A permit is required
where more than 10,000 gallons
is taken in any day. The sec-
tion does not apply to existing
water systems or to water
taken for domestic or farm or
fire -fighting purposes. Farm
purposes do not include water-
ing or irrigation of crops
grown for sale."
Mr. MacNaughton added,
"We in OWRC contend that the
time for intelligent use of wa-
ter is now. For this reason, we
appreciate the opportunity to
discuss these matters with or-
ganizations such as yours."

Message from
"First — we are charged
with keeping close watch over
stream pollution through exa,
mination of streams, and sour-
ces of pollution. Second — we
advise municipalities coneern-
ing water treatment require-
ments and needs, in connec-
tion with sewage disposal and
treatment. Tbird — we review
plans and approve or reject all
water and sewage projects to
be undertaken by municipali-
ties or persons. Fourth — we
are responsible for 'construct-
ing, financing, and operating
water and sewage works for
Ontario municipalities on re.
quest.
"Filth — we review plans of
waste disposal projects under-
taken by industry: Sixth — we
operate laboratory and research
Projects. Seventh — we carry
on a continual search for new
ground water supplies. Eighth
— we license all of Ontario's
water well drillers. Ninth — we
administer Ontario's plumbing
regulations. Tenth, and lastly
— we are charged with disse-
minating information on prob-
lems in water supply and waste
disposal, explained Mr, Mac -
Naughton,
Re -use of water
"With the rapid growth in
Ontario," continued the speak.
er, "re -use of water will be-
come a common factor in keep.
ing with the fullest use of the
natural resource. There are re-
gions already in the province,
where water is being re -used
up to six Limes. It seems a lot,
but there, are areas of Europe,
and a good nany of them,
where water is re -used a mini.
mum of 14 tunes.
"Stratford is one of six dis-
tricts municipalities wher e
ground -water surveys have been
conducted since 1957. In Ayr, a
survey was conducted for a mu-
nicipal water supply in 1959,
In 1960, a survey for an addi-
tional water supply was, con-
ducted in Stratford, Exeter, and
New Hamburg. In 1958, a sur
vey was conducted for an addi.
Lionel water supply in Preston,
and the same for Elmira in
1961.
Test drillings
"Of these six • municipalities,
only Preston, and Exeter have
completed test drilling pro-
grams. The test drilling at
Preston was financed and di-
•ected by the OWRC.
