WANTED: CONSERVATIONISTS The Ausable Bayfield Conservation Authority (ABCA) will be accepting nominations for its annual conservation awards until October 10. Authority staff ask that area resi- dents nominate a friend, neighbour, club, or organization that has taken di- rect action to protect a resource.

Examples of conservation work to be considered are: wetland protection; prevention of soil erosion through mod- ified tillage, crop rotation, structures, and windbreaks; farm waste control to prevent pollution; and education. The ABCA requires names, mailing addresses, and descriptions of the con- servation work done by the nominee (in rural areas, note the lot and concession).
