vehicle
Central Huron - A young driver
from Huron East is facing sev-

an incident that took place
in Central Huron on July, 18,
2015 at approximately 9 p.m.
A Mazda 3 approached a
RIDE program that was set up
on Front Road just south of
Huron Road. The alert offic-
ers watched the driver of the
southbound Mazda come to
a sudden stop and then com-
plete U-turn. The officers then
followed after the vehicle and
watched as the driver blew
through a stop sign. Officers
activated their emergency equip-
ment and attempted to stop the
driver however the driver con-
tinued northbound on the gravel
road at a high rate of speed.

lost control of his vehicle as he
descended down a hill. The

the officer detected alcohol on
the driver's breath. The driver
later provided samples of his
breath and his results regis-

Conservation Authorities Act
under discussion and review
Conservation authorities
are pleased to participate in
the discussion and review of
the Conservation Authorities
Act as announced by the
Ontario Ministry of Natural
Resources and Forestry.
"The role of conservation
authorities around Ontario's
natural resources has
changed significantly over
the years in response to
increasing challenges to our
water and land resources,"
said Kim Gavine, general
manager of Conservation
Ontario.
"Stresses such as climate
change, rapid growth, and
changing land uses signifi-
cantly challenge the health
of Ontario's watersheds. The
work of conservation
authorities has had to
change in order to reflect
this and we expect to see this
discussed through the
review of the Conservation
Authorities Act."
Ontario's 36 conserva-
tion authorities are local
watershed management
agencies that deliver a
wide variety services and
programs that protect and
manage water and other
natural resources in part-
nership with all levels of
government, agencies,
industry, and landowners.
The original Conservation
Authorities Act was estab-
lished in 1946. Some amend-
ments have been made over
time, including those in the
1990s, which addressed local
programs, fees, partnerships
and other areas. In 2006, the
scope of conservation
authorities' regulatory
responsibilities changed to
encompass additional water -
related hazards.
The Ontario Minster of
Natural Resources and
Forestry has posted a dis-
cussion paper for a 91 day
comment period. The
Ministry states that the
objective for this review is
to "improve the legisla-
tive, regulatory and policy
framework that currently
governs the creation,
operation and activities of
conservation authorities
that may be required in
the face of a changing
environment."
The discussion paper
highlights and solicits feed-
back around three areas of
interest: governance, fund-
ing mechanisms, and roles
and responsibilities of con-
servation authorities.
"We look forward to hav-
ing discussions with many
different partners through-
out this process," said
Gavine. "Conservation
authorities are committed
to improving and stream-
lining watershed manage-
ment in Ontario in order to
ensure sustainable natural
resources which are
needed to support a vibrant
economy, strong environ-
ment, and healthy people."
