A. private family funeral service was held at • Stiles Funeral Home In Goderich Public must be included in plannbig .: Dear Editor: For some time now the general public has been in- volved in the . planning pro- cess of 'Hydro • Electric Power Development in On- tario. For example, the farm community, 'during a period from 1975-79, helped provide vital agricultural informa- tiontoOntario Hydro via. the "Working Group" on agricultural methodology. Farm organizations represented on the "Agricultural Working Group are: The Ontario Federation of Agriculture, The National Farmers Union, The. Christian Farmers Federation of On- tario, The Ontario Cat- tlemen's Association, The Soil and Crop Improvement Association,' and The Con- cerned Farmers of the United Townships. . • We, as the Huron Power Line Committee, are con- vinced that this kind of in- volvement by the public sec- tor is very keenly crucial in assessing energy needs, and determining the criteria by which those needs are met, in order for all of society to benefit. • The Royal Commission on Electric Power Planning, during their hearings, followed a very open and participatory procedure, and in their recommenda- tions urged Ontario Hydro to do the same. We have been expecting a Southwestern Ontario study (which has been available in draft form since the, end of October - early November 1980) to be released by On- tario Hydro. This study is ex- pected to propose a 500 K. V: power line to be constructed from the Bruce Nuclear Power Development and,run south through Huron County to serve the Southwestern Ontario grid and possibly ex- port surplus power to the U.S. A considerable amount of correspondence to and from Ontario Hydro, the Ministry a HOTTUBS NATURAL, HEALTHFUL, 8 SO -0-0-0 RELAXING HYDRO -MESSAGE JETS SURROUND YOU.

We are particularly con- cerned about the fact that the Ministry of Energy, Robert Welch, -has requested., Ontario Hydro "to hold in abeyance any planning which Hydro has .underway in order to come to a final decision on the process which might best be followed to ensure full public par- ticipation, and until ' the Ministry's review is com- plete." Are the government and Hydro planning to release, in- formation in detail on the study after public comments have been • received, therefore eliminating any other contribution the public may wish to make?
