Illegal d.1 mping alleged EAST WAVI ANOSI •TWP. -OoimciI hopes to meet with representatives from Wingham Town Council arid the` Ministry of the Environment to discuss alleged illegal dumping practices at the town's waste disposal site in the township. The matter was discussed at the meeting of East Wawanosh council. At the meeting, a letter from the ministry was read stating that the • town's "current land -filling operation is outside the area presently certified". The town dump is located on the '12th concession of East Wawanosh. The town owns the certificate of approval from the ministry, but the 100 -acre property is owned by Wingham Reeve Joe Kerr. East Wawanosh council sent a letter to the ministry after the July meeting, requesting information on the size and location of the licensed area at the Wingham landfill site. The ministry confirmed that the Wingham site has a certificate of approval for a 4.0 - hectare or a 10 -acre sites but it has indeed moved a portion of its operation outside the licensed area. East Wawanosh Councillor Jim Taylor said the letter called the Wingham dump site "illegal and added the town is not following environmental standards. Mr. Taylor clairned the site is not being controlled in any way. When contacted later, Wingham Councillor Bruce Machan, a spokesman for the town's works committee, said he ,is aware the town is dumping outside its licensed limits, but added it is doing so to move refuse away from neighbouring residences. Other than that, the site is being run according to ministry standards, he said. The town currently is in the preliminary stages of preparing a plan of operation for the landfill site, said Mr. Machan, and is awaiting the results of a hydrogeological survey (water test holes) made at the site by its engineer, Art Clark of Maitland Engineering Services in Wingham. Until the results of these water quality tests have been analyzed, Mr. Machan said, town council must take a "wait and see" approach to the waste disposal site question. In the meantime the town still may continue operations at the site, according to the ministry directive. In other business, East Wawanosh council granted approval to the Belgrave Community Centre Board to hold a raffle this year to raise funds for the new ball park lights at Belgrave. Council granted $50 to the Huron County Plowmen's Association and •$25 to. the Ontario Special Olympics. Five building permits were approved: Keith Good, Con. 1, Lot 35, a garage; Heibo Siertsema, Con. 1, Lot 31, an extension to a driving shed; Peter Bromner, Con. 4, Lot 35, an addition to a shed; Jim McGee, Con. 10,, Lot, 30, an additionto his barn; and John Newell, Lot 42, Con. 14, a porch.

The 5,000 square foot store, provides everything a grocery shopper would want. Don was previously the owner of the Blyth Meat Market, but has always wanted to own a larger store. He felt that this was the perfect opportunity to fulfill his dream and offer more to the village. The new store will still offer the full service meat counter, keeping the butcher shop idea of the Meat Market. Above, Lenore and Don greet their first customers after the official opening.

Mannings explore west Bill and Thelma Manning have recently returned from an extensive' trip of Western Canada during which they attended the wedding of their nephew Brian Manning in Calgary. Bill has just finished writing a booklet which contains valuable information gleaned from this trip and delightful human interest stories about it. The Manning trip was not just a tour of place. It was an exploration. They often travelled on secondary roads, which penetrated into tiny villages and rural areas. Bill, in 1944 -'45-'46, worked' as a harvest helper in the West; th'refore, he was interested in the complete mechanization of farming opera ions in the last 40 years. The Mannings visited libraries, looking over books giving the history of the area, and Railway Museums in High River and Innisfail, Alberta. They have film of a railway running down the main street of Armstrong, B.C. This year the West has suffered climatic extremes - excessive moisture in some parts drought in others; wind, dust, and hail storms, terrific heat and a grasshopper plague. e "Walking on a farm 60 miles south east of Calgary," Bill writes, "we could not see our own pant legs for grasshoppers jumping." The Mannings drove near a prairie fire $4004 533.9624 which was caused by a single vehicle accident near Maple Creek, Sask. It spread so rapidly that, due to 80 km. winds and area rainfall less than two inches in four months, 60 miles eastward, at Swift Current, they experienced a heavy pall of smoke. Trucks had travelled 100 miles with tanks off water and chemicals to fight the fire. A member of Blyth council, Councillor Manning looked tip municipal officers in many of the districts they passed through, exchanging village of Blyth pins for those of western municipalities or for literature on their history. Concerning the Okanogan Valley, B.C. - it was Bill and Thelma's first visit there - Bill. writes, "With its grassland ranches, field vegetable crops, mixed farming, its miles of fruit trees and vineyards, its low humidity summer and winters with little snow, they who live in the Okanogan truly live in God's country." Mr. and Mrs. Manning returned from their adventure amazed but delighted at the pioneer characteristics of the Westerners. Despite adverse economic conditions, and this past summer's bad weather, they are optimistic, friendly, generous, and always willing to lend a helping hand. Bill comments, "Towards the ens of the day, they can shed their concerns and whooped it up in support of the local team at their local sports field."
