Huron Expositor, 2001-12-05, Page 9News County ups septic allotment Huron County's Healthy Futures program is fixing up more septic systems in the county than originally bargained for and county council passed a motion Nov. 29 to increase the allotment for septic systems by another $150,000. The number of grants approved since September is nearing the estimated total grant dollars for septic systems. The county allotted $500,000 towards septic system improvements but 84 per cent of this money, 'which was supposed to last until March 2003, has already been granted. Coun. Ben Van Diepenbeek, chair of the agriculture, public works and seniors committee, said at the last meeting of the technical review committee another 75-80 applications were approved, including another 25 applications for septic system improvements. The county received $2.5 million in funding from the provincial Healthy Futures for Ontario Agriculture program in July. The cost-sharing program focuses on improving water quality and includes: septic systems, nutrient management plans, cropland plans, wellhead protection, plugging abandoned 'wells, erosion control structures, fragile land retirement, ponds for irrigation purposes and alternate cattle drinking facilities, livestock restriction to watercourses, clean water diversion, livestock washwater treatment and disposal, manure monitoring systems and manure spreading equipment modification.
