Landfill site looks promising
By Wilma Oke
TUCKERSMITII TWP - A report on the
progress of• the Seaforth and Area Landfill
Site Committee was given at the council
meeting here on July 15.
Deputy Reeve. Robert Broadfoot, a
member of the committee, outlined the
engineer's report on the testing of soil condi-
tions at the proposed 138 acre site, part of
Lot 36 to part of Lot 39, Concession 1,
Tuckersmith Township, owned by Richard
Kootstra.
The report indicates the majority of the
test drilled portion of the site would be ac-
ceptable for landfilling, but that the south
sectionwould not be useable for this purpose
because of saturated sand deposits. The test
holes near the river and along the north
boundary of the property showed very litle
permeable soil and the Bayfield River ap-
pears to be protected from leachate
contamination.
Engineers from Conestoga Rovers and
Associates will supply a plan showing the
area of this site that are confirmed as being
safe and the marginal areas between them.
The reconjrnended bottom elevations will be
established for the terraced landfilling
areas and the proposed development and
operation of the site and its anticipated
capacity and life will be studied by
members of the committee.
The laboratory work will be completed
and the draft final hydrology report will be
ready about the middle of September.
The landfill committee will be meeting,
possibly August 21 to study the preliminary
operations plan and the comments of the
Ministry of the Environment personnel.
Other Business
In other business the road superintendent,
Douglas Poulton, has been authorized by
council to have the clay burn on the top of
the township gravel pit removed and stock
piled to the north on the site.
As the Village of Hensall Council is now in
agreement to a reduced hourly rental rate
at the Hensall area for minor sports
organizations, Tuckersmith Council will not
provide special grants to Hensall minor
athletic executive and the figure skating
club.
Councillor Rowena Wallace was ap-
pointed as the township representatives on
the Nash Drain Court of Revision to be held
in the McKillop Township office on August 5.
Council authorized the Day Care Super-
visor Cheryl Nhun at Vanastra to purchase
an upright freezer from Frank Kling
Limited, Seaforth, for $549 'plus tax.
Council will be presented soon with the
preliminary plan for the reconstruction pro-
ject for the Toronto Boulevard at Vanastra.
Loea! ridings undergo significant changes
The local ridings of Huron - Bruce and
Huron - Middlesex will cease to exist as
five area ridings are condensed into four
following the revision of the province's
electoral districts. As a result the
members currently holding seats in the af-
fected ridings may find themselves vying
each other for the nomination frpm their
riding in the next election.
All five ridings are held by Liberals
which means the minority government
will lose a seat when the election is called
and the revisions take effect.
The counties of Huron and Bruce will
each form a separate riding and part of the
city of London east of Clarke Side Road
and the area east of Highbury Avenue and
north of Huron Street will be added to the
Middlesex riding, which also includes the
whole of the county.
Local MPPs Murray Elston and Jack
Riddell will continue to serve the consti-
tuents of the ridings of Huron - Bruce and
Huron - Middlesex until the next election is
called. The two members will then seek
nominations in the new ridings.
Elston is still deliberating and has not
decided where he will seek nomination but
it is expected that Riddell will run in the
new riding of Huron.
As well as increasing the number of
seats by five to 130, the bill, passed just
before the summer recess, makes changes
to most PxistinP ridings. Fifty- eight

ridings have only slightly changed while 51
have undergone more significent shifts.
The last redistribution occurred in 1975
when the number of seats jumped from 117
to 1.25. Population increases generally dic-
tate the need for change.
The interests of municipalities, com-
munity groups and individuals are closely
examined. The passage of The Represen-
tation Act culminates three years of
Legislative review, public hearings and
study by all parties. The Ontario Electoral
Boundaries Commission, which was
responsible for the review, conducted
public hearings throughout the province
and received almost 600 representations.

The movie presentation for this week was
entitled Stompin Tom. It was the story about
how Stompin Tom Conners became famous.
Everyone enjoyed the film.
Everyone at Queensway is busily prepar-
ing for the volunteer party. They are looking
forward to seeing all the volunteers
together.
