The study Continues .Over the past year Ontbrio Hydro has con- ducted an environmental study to identify the most acceptable alternative locations for each of two transmission line rights-of-way between Bradley Junction and the Guelph -Georgetown area.

The First .Phase The first'phase of the study was devoted to assembling basic data about the study area - from maps, statistics, etc., in order to establish possible corridors for the transmission lines. The Second Phase.. To determine the views of the community. about the alternative corridors, public meet- ings were held in October in the study' area. Since that time the project team has estab- lished a possible right-of-way within each corridor. Now The Third Phase To obtain the views of the community about the rights-of-way `a series of public meetings has been arranged. These are listed below. There is a meeting for your area and you are invited to attend. Maps showing the location of the right-of- way within each corridor will be on display from 7:00 p.m. on the livening of the meeting.
