These rigpts-of-way are required to accommodate part of the planned province - wide 500,000 volt bulk transmission system as well as associated 230,00Q volt rights-of-way in the Kitchener -Waterloo -Guelph 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 SecondPhase 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 ThirdPhase 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. pn the evening of the meeting. Hydro representatives will also be available at that time to discuss the rights-of-way with you. .MCft.4PPvd .siva Los 5..

Don't Tell Too Much Mosher told council that while Ontario Hydro may not have pro- vided enough information about their planning, it was possible "to inform the pubic too much". "The people may get upset," said Mosher. Warden Bill Elston told Hydro officials he was satisfied com- . mu ications had improved over the past two years between Hydro and the people. He said relations could be even better if county councillors became in- formed about and interested in Hydro developments in Bruce as well as Huron. "A lot is happen- ing in this county with Hydro lines," said Elston. "A lot more will be happening in the next five: years or so. There's no doubt in my mind." Jack Riddell believes that local government will play an im- portant role where Ontario Hydro is concerned in the next few years. "Local government is going to have to see that Ontario Hydro pays its way," said Rid- dell. He said the local people should not have to "pick up the tab" for changes because of Hydro development in the area. One of -the points in the county which has been mentioned as a possible site for any nuclear development in Huron is Blake, a small hamlet about five miles northwest of Zurich. Nestled quietly in Stanley Township, - Blake is not far fromthe shores of bake Huron. Reeve Jack Turkheim of Zurich says the people of that village are talking about the news of possible nuclear development cloaeby. In a telephone con- versation Saturday afternoon, the reeve said the people of the area "don't seem . to be frightened" by the possibility though he expects some are • thinking about the changes which couad take place in the area if a nuclear plant there did become reality. Ironically, when county council 'net last Friday, one of the docu- Mentsr on the desk of each Member was a copy of the secon% dares plan for the village of Zurich• Containing over 60 pages .prepared by the staff of the Mitten County Planning Depart - i Preparation ID A word to the wise When it comes to hot water, using it wisely --not wastefully— makes good sense. your hydro CS3-7482A
