The Lucknow Sentinel, 1976-09-15, Page 7First Power From
Bruce Station
Bruce nuclear generating station ,
supplied electricity to •the Ontario
Hydro system for the first time' at
6.07 p.m., Saturday, September 4.
This follows more than a month
.,of low-power tests on the reactor,
which started up July 27. '
The station's Unit 2 -- the first of
four identical units to be completed
- will gradually increase its output
over the next few months JO its full
CapaCitydOf 750 megawatts. When
all units are in operation, expected
in' 1979, they will meet the peak
needs of a city the size of
Metropolitan Toronto.
The Bruce unit is larger than any
Of the four at Pickering, which have
a capacity of 500 megawatts 'each,
and the 200-megawatt unit at
Douglas Point.'
The station, located on the shore
of Lake Huron in Bruce Township,
between Kincardine and Port
Elgin,. contains as •much structural
steel as in two Toronto-Dominion
Centres, and stretches one-fifth of
a mile inland,.
Construction began in late 1969,
and involved more than 20 trades,
with a peak employment of 3,000:

sents a unique achievement, in that
the technology '-- provided by
Ontario Hydro, Atomic Energy of
Canada Limited and •the inanufac-
turing industry -- is all-Canadian.
The Brice station is the latest
version of the basic design used at
Pickering and Douglas Point, all
using natural uranium fuel with
heavy water moderator and cool-
ant.
As well as supplying electricity
to the people and industries of
Ontario, the Bruce station will

tute had, as their speaker• Mrs,
Betty. Parker,, secretary of Bruce

tional Ploughing Mateh to be held
near Walkerton September 28 -
October 2, 1976. Mrs.. Parker gave
an excellent account of the
behind-the-scenes of, the match
dealing with it from the , requeist for
it from Bruce County nine 'years
ago, until today. •She gave
resume of the work of all the
personnel on the executive ' and
their 'work' which entails a great
deal of work and planning. By 'all
accounts, the 1976 match will be
bigger and better than ever, one
more street has been added to the
tented city, and a trailer Park is
also a new additon this year. The
Women's Institutes are involved in
several of the events.
Mrs. Glenn Young was the

Roll call wad answered with "What
I'm looking forward to at the
Ploughing Match 76". This
brought forth a variety of answers,
some to see it for the first time,
others interested in the ladies'
programs, others that they may be
able to attend a couple of times and
see mote of it, one who will try and
see the ploughing this time! Mts.
Young gave the motto "Soil, 'like
man, .deteriorates with abuse".
This was a well prepared paper
ending with- "I'm awful good for
the shape I'm in". Several projects
'the ladies are to help with were
dealt with. The 4-H club is now
underway "Clothes • for Leisure"
with leaders Margaret Bannerman
and JoAnne VanBeers.

ports Mrs. Glen Haldenby showed
a new weed she had found. This is
