The three animals have been relocated lo Ihe Stuart Burnside pholo by Stuart Burnside cougars (mother and kitten) which were captured near Port Fraser Canyon. Cougars Invade'Port Mellon Three cougars captured in two separate incidents last Thursday near Port Mellon have been released in the Fraser Canyon. The animals came to the attention of authorities after one of the cats approached a woman out with her dog. Inga Fenwick told the Coast News that she was waiting for a friend at a booming ground close to Howe Sound Pulp and Paper Wednesday afternoon, when a commotion from her sheltie dog 'Julie' caused her lo look around. Directly behind her was a young cougar, \"within reaching distance.\" \"I just turned around and there it was,\" said Fenwick, \"it backed off a couple of 'cougar lengths' and I yelled at it and threw a stone. It spat at me and hissed, then it went slinking away.\" Fenwick, a resident of that area since 1943, said it's only the third such animal she's ever seen there. She added that, after her display of animosity scared the animal away, she continued to wait for her friend...\"from inside his truck.\" District Conservation Officer Doug Pierce learned of the encounter later trTartlaytifitfiiiatJe arrangements with the Regional Wildlife Control Officer Dennis Pemble to come over from Abbotsford the following morning (bringing bloodhounds and a tranquillizer gun with him) to help subdue the animal. However, according to Pierce when the two men arrived on the scene at 8 am Thursday, they judged from the tracks that there were probably as many as three mountain lions in the area; a mother and two 'kittens' (80 pounds each). The bloodhounds were turned loose and, after a three hour chase, two of the cougars (the mother and a kitten) were treed in two separate trees \"about 200 yards apart\". Pierce said officer Pemble tranquillized both of them while they were \"hissing down from the branches\" and they were then taken to a storage, locaton to await transportation to Fraser Canyon, the area cited as their new home. Later thai afternoon, and after the first two animals were safely incarcerated, he and Pemble went back to the area, \"just to make sure there wasn't a third lion around.\" Again the dogs picked up a scent, and, said Pierce, \"after a 45 minute hunt,\" a second 'kitten' was drugged and soon reunited with the rest of its family. \"These animals are worth saving,\" Pierce told the Coast News, \"they haven't been spoiled.\" \"Spoiled\", according to Pierce, is when mountain lions come to rely on human habitation for their food source. He noted that, while lions usually prefer to kill their food and, unlike bears, avoid such 'conveniences' as garbage, it isn't uncommon for them to begin to regard household pets as an easy source of sustenance. Pierce said, at the present time, there are numerous * reports of mountain lions coming from all over the Coast, from Port Mellon to Egmont. He told the Coasl News that between capturing the first two lions and then the third, his time was devoted to investigating another, unrelated, cougar report from Roberts Creek. Pierce blames the apparent 'cat' inundation on spring, saying, \"This happens every year.\" He noted that, in an average year, eight mouniain lions are captured for re-release on the Coast, \"as a direct result of complaints from area residents.\" Summing up the action provided by the conservation officers, lnga Fenwick said, \"They arrived very quickly, and had the problem taken care of in three hours. Then they came back to double check and got another animal.\" Prompted by Robinson case Skelly seeks RCMP curbs by Jan Michael Sherman MP Ray Skelly is calling for significant changes in the RCMP Act which would bring about a five-year review mechanism of the act itself, as well as the strengthening of the authority of the independent RCMP Public Complaints Commission. Skelly's move came about partially as a consequence of the Donald Robinson/RCMP assault case. This week, the federal police force agreed that Coast resident Robinson had been assaulted twice by Gibsons Cpl. Bruce Waite while Robinson was in custody. Senior RCMP Officer Norman Inkster also issued an apology to Robinson. Skelly was involved in the case almost from the beginning. \"Robinson and his family tried for an investigation, but were frustrated at the lack of cooperation,\" said Skelly. \"They came to me. (Ultimately) I wrote to the Solicitor-General asking for an investigation, but he said he'd looked into the matter and that Mr. Robinson was the 'author of his own misfortune.' \" Skelly wrote a second, \"stronger\" letter, but, again, was seriously disappointed with the response, particuarly as it related to \"Robinson's medical condition.\" The Robinson family went ot BC's ombudsman, who suggested they go to the RCMP Public Complaints Commission. \"The RCMP officially opposed an investigation by the commission, claiming that while Robinson had been arrested on September 30, 1988, the Complaints Commission had nol received its mandate until October I���the next day!\" Skelly said with some lingering disbelief. \"But the courts Upheld the commission's right to investigate.\" As a direct result of their investigation into the Donald Robinson case, the Complaints Commission discovered what Skelly describes as \"serious inadequacies in their authority...They've made 38 recommendations for changes to the RCMP Act to make their agency more effective.\" The MP was quick to point out that, \"getting the RCMP is not the raison d'etre for attempting to bring about these changes. This agency (the Complaints Commission) makes a good police force better. Ninety per cent of all citizen complaints MP Ray Skelly calls for public against the RCMP are mediated or dismissed as having no basis. Only a very few���like Don Robinson's���ever go this far.\" Skelly hopes to get representatives from all three political parties, the RCMP, and the Complaints Commission to come before the Justice Committee in order to \"collectively bring these changes forward.\" Asked what his position would be should the RCMP choose not to become involved in this legislative push to amend the RCMP Act and strengthen the powers of the Public Complaints Commission, Skelly simply replied, \"In the final analysis, we'll go ahead with or without the RCMP. \"The commission wants���as do I and others-public disclosure of disciplinary action. Jin Michael Sherman photo response from the RCMP when disciplinary action is involved. There must be public disclosure (on the part of the RCMP) as to what's been done in any case of a disciplinary nature to enable the public to ascertain whether the punishment fits the crime.\" Staff Sergeant Hamilton, speaking on behalf of Superintendent Cowlie of the Vancouver sub-division of the RCMP, was asked by the Coasl News to comment on reports circulating which contend that Cpl. Bruce Waite is to be transferred and promoted. Hamilton had no comment. Waite himself laughingly dismissed the report as having no basis in fact. \"I don't have the destiny of my career,\" he told the Coast News. by J - '^11 EjBKH *'!\\S^ Hk 1 Wri . �� n ���faV ��� ��� o h TUG 1/ (v; r fi c\" /?

Service within 10 weeks Ferry plans still vague by Calhrine Fuller and Jan Michael Sherman Speaking at a press conference following a lengthy meeting wilh Stewart Vinnells, the man intending to bring a fast, passenger-only ferry to Ihe Sunshine Coast, specifically Gibsons, Mayor Eric Small acknowledged lhat, \"We all see a definite housing crisis coming soon wilh or without the fast ferry.\" This remark was prompted by a Coast News question regarding the impact of some 70 ferry employees, which Vinnells' Island Development Group Ltd., will situate in Gibsons with the implementation of the new service, set lo begin in May. In Small's view, ihe exacerbation of the existing housing crunch in the Gibsons area is something Ihe Gibsons Council is already trying lo prepare for. \"All the current council members were elected on a clear platform of anticipating, controlling and preparing for growth,\" the mayor asserted. Dr. Vinnells met wilh Small and Gibsons' aldermen last Fri day providing, for the first lime, an opportunity for the town to voice iheir concerns and ask questions. Alderman John McNevin said lhat he had some \"concerns\" about the project, bui fell thai al ihis point in lime, \"Wc don'l have a problem.\" Mayor Small said lhal for council members Ihe meeting with Vinnells confirmed what ihey already suspecled���lhat the infrastructure for the ferry service is nol yel firm. For his pari, Dr. Vinnells described Ihe meeting as an opportunity for his company to \"...explore the different possibilities of what's available.\" \"We're looking for longterm solutions,\" Vinnells claimed, adding that he will be working closely with Gibsons municipal staff and council member to find permanent, satisfactory arrangements for parking, bus service, and waiting facilities. \"Il won't be successful unless we all work logether,\" he emphasized, \"but there's no question lhal all lhal will be resolved.\" �� * lfmMrtMlfMH ' ���r.- ������>-: ������- ��� ' ��� \"' '���'Cjm 5! ���let 1, ^������r*hJu* '���fillfce Pfl^laeS^JlL laaal*~ >*\"��� tJS&feY, i*;T*B WamAmaamP^m7>'- jj2 eaaaaam\\*tJeaP If 3&��&$m*!y ��� ���! 4 ^ ?~\"JHfjF^ ^^Sessss* Stewart Vinnells (left) of Island Development Group, and Mayor Eric Small met last Friday to discuss the infrastructure necessary for the new fast ferry service.

The Community Associationr a non-profit organization that has, under one name or another, provided a rallying point and forum for Roberts Creek residents for nearly 60 years, has become a burden to some of its executive members. \"The annual election is coming up in April,\" said Almond, \"And some of the people on Ihe executive board don't want lo be bothered anymore. \"It's the same people who keep it running year after year, and they're tired.\" Almond's rationale for Ihe lack of interest in the Association is \"People can't be bothered unless something affects them, then the people show up al ihe hall (Roberts Creek Community hall) lo demand action.\" The current membership of the Association, according to Almond, is about 50, and he estimates the current 'Creek population to be around 3000. \"That's nol a hell of a lol of interested people.\" Almond says the function of the Association is to deal with everything...every little thing that comes up that bothers somebody in Roberts Creek.\" On Ihe list of Association accomplishments, Almond lists ihe establishment of the Roberls Creek Volunteer Fire Depart ed in June of 1990 by the BC Ferry Corporation, v/ai probably overly optimistic in its estimate of potential users. Mayor Small added that���in his opinion���Dr. Vinnells' projections were also optimistic. An American Dreamscape I woke fearful and drenched in sweat, wilh red, while, and blue stars and stripes dancing a patriotic lango in front of my sleep-starved eyes. The content of the dream, Ihe fabric of the nighlmare which had been so clear momenis ago, was shredded and indistinguishable like the makings of a good burrito. Bui the revelation spinning out of my nocturnal middlings hil me like a ion of smart carpet bombs, impacting squarely on the grey- speckled shag of my head. It's gonna be Quayle-Rcagan in '92! Remember, folks, you read about it first right here, right now. The only reason I'm letting you in on this Mother- Of-AII-Satoris is because of the obvious implications such a presidential ticket holds for Canada. We are, after all, one of the El Primo Sychophantes of the New World Order, And we're gonna be expected to keep car- ryin' water for that Big American Global Swat Team as it bestrides the planet ever on the lookout for new and more odious���and over-rated ���tanktown dive artists to set up and annihilate. In my dream I saw George \"American Caesar\" Bush, on his yuppie knobby knees, praying to Saddam and Noriega. FROM THE HIP J.M. Sherman They were in the form of those stuffed figures you hurl baseballs at on the carnival midway. A third figure with a question mark for a face bobbed back and forth in front of George, emitting wheezy, squeaky, blood-curdling chuckles and chortles. I knew what this meant. Bush has led a charmed life to this point and knows it. He knows he can't get any luckier than he did with Noriega or that Panamanian clown's clone, Saddam Hussein. Hell, recently Bush bragged that American soldiers were safer on the front lines during Desert Storm than is your average Connecticut Slate Trooper on patrol in Newark. Can such excessive pride, such hubris, go for long uncorrected? In my dream, Bush is now leading a joyful, clown-suited Danny Quayle lo the Tunnel of Love which boasts an entrance in the shape of a seductive male mouth with vcrmillion lips and tiled-down teelh. Bush buys Quayle a candy floss and turns him over to a large old man in combat fatigues carrying a raygun. The meaning is un- mistakeable! With his approval rating higher lhan God's immediately following the creation, Bush is unlikely to run for a second term because he's certain to win! And if he wins, what does he do for an encore once the domestic situation becomes even more untenable and politically damaging as it was prior to the Hundred Hour Rout? Liberate the homeless? Redistribute the wealth? Or, even better, re-invade Vietnam and set the record straight? Naw, Bush is not as out of touch with reality as I tend to give him credit for. But don't take my word for it, here's the last image in my dream. There was this tall glass tower shaped sorta like the United Nations building, but it was moving across oceans and great land masses, gleaming and twinkling with thousands of points of light. It hovers over the White House, a staircase of coloured, cushioned air appears. Danny Quayle, wearing a cap saying \"PREZ\" and feeding the Presidential Seal herring from a pail, ambles over to where Vice- President Ronald Reagan stands autographing copies of his new book \"The Bucks Stop Here And I Keep Them\". Down the staircase descends the Supreme Leader of the New World Order, wearing an American flag loincloth and carrying a sceptre with a rubber stamp head which prints the words \"RE-MADE BY AMERICA\" on any surface, including liquids. Beside George Bush, wearing matching red, white, and blue-striped sweats and Reeboks, stand Saddam Hussein and Manuel Noriega. Both carry bibles. Both have crewcuts. Saddam carries a small styrofoam cooler full of Dr. Pepper. Bush signals to his myopic pilot and, with a crisp salute, Joe Clark revs up the floating New World Order headquarters. Now, is there any question that it's gonna be Quayle and Reagan in '927 ment, the present availability of a SCRD water supply, and most important in many ways, the settlement plan the Association helped institute ten years ago. \"The settlement plan has served a great purpose,\" said Almond, \"it settled the zoning and land use in Roberts Creek so that it wasn't going to be chopped up by the developers.\" He notes however that, once the settlement plan was established, residents have had less reason to worry, and have become complacent about the Association. \"Again, unless something else comes up that bothers them.\" Almond feels all that would be necessary to encourage the continuation of the Association would be a show of support from the community. \"Even if people just show up for the monthly meetings, it lets us know the Association is valued.\" Almond would have it known that the Community Association can and does deal with issues beyond the boundaries of Roberts Creek \"Restructuring, location of highways, disputes wilh BC Ferries...you name it.\" This is done through letters to Victoria, or the various government ministries, organization of petitions, contact with other local government entities, etc. \"We're a voice for the people,\" asserts Almond, \"But they've got to want to talk.\" Even if the Association doesn't fold in April, there is a \"very good\" possibility the community hall will be sold. \"The upkeep is just getting to be too much because there is no community interest,\" he said. Taxpayers hit by Stuart Burnside Sechelt businesses along Cowrie Street could pay $26.37 per metre of frontage property to help finance the Downtown Revitalization project, according to an initial report from the Revitalization Committee, while the District of Sechelt and private residences could pay $23.51 and $6.59 per metre respectively. The first stage of the project (henceforth to be known as the Cowrie Street Beautification Initiative, according to Committee Chairman Doug Reid) would remove the hydro, telephone and cable lines from Cowrie and see ornamental lighting installed. The report, presented by Reid at last Wednesday's committee meeting, estimated the cost of stage one at $378,764; after receiving applicable grant, and is to be financed through the province's downtown revitalization programme at six per cent interest over 15 years. \"That's a darn good rale,\" said Reid, \"But it may change between now and when we float the loan next year.\" The cost per metre would mean the business share of the financing would amount to $188,735, the District's portion would amount to $160,540, wilh residences providing $15,621 (Ihe district would agree lo absorb the cost that would have gone to the school and church located in the project scope, some $3866). \"The reason the District's costs are less than the commercial rate,\" \"explained planner Rob Sabine, \"is because we are paying 100 per cent of our own frontage (as the businesses will) plus great portions of other frontages, but it's less than 100 per cent, so, on our total per- meire basis, it's going to come to less than the 100 per cent.\" Alderman Reid clarified by saying, \"We (the District) are paying 75 per cent for the residences between Ocean and Trail, as well as 90 per cent of ihe cost to the school (Sechelt Elementary).\" In 1987, when the first revitalization plans were being discussed for Sechelt, costs were estimated al $800 to $1000 per lot frontage. All the changes at that lime were to take place on private properly, so there would have been no costs to taxpayers. Al that time, the revitalization scheme failed, with less than the required 50 per cent approval from property owners. We Remember When S YEARS AGO The SCRD Planning Committee recommended that a one-year moratorium be placed on new fish farms in Sechelt Inlet until such time as further research is undertaken on the effects of high density fish farming in the Inlet. Gordon Halsey of the Ministry of the Environment told Directors that experiences in Scotland have shown that waste material from fish farms can result in the destruction of oxygen In the water, leading to the death of animal life. 10 YEARS AQO Sentences described as lighter than expected were handed down last week In Vancouver on residents of the Sunshine Coast and Powell River who obstructed work taking place on the controversial Cheekeye-Dunsmuir power line. IS YEARS AGO Area A Director Jack Paterson is concerned over problems that might arise with the Regional District taking over the function of maintenance of sewer systems. The cost to the taxpayer will be one quarter mil. i 25 YEARS AGO The Federal Department of Public Works Is considering the possibility of constructing docking facilities at Selma Park. At an Area Water committee meeting In Gibsons Health Centre, Martin Dayton, professional engineer, estimated a minimum of $825,000 would be required to set up a water district system based on six Inch piping. 35 YEARS AGO Two cougars were shot and killed near Roberts Creek. Apparently both were starving, as their stomachs were found to be empty In an autopsy. Sechelt School District received a budget of $405,015 from the Department of Education; this Is an Increase of nearly $58,000 over 1955. 45 YEARS AQO William Greelees has been awarded the contract to reconstruct the wharf at Gibsons Landing for the amount of $81,210. !-��������\"���: : s\\sss\\sssssssss\\Wm*s^r^\"''!'' . . , - .������ , '..,... r\\ , -, ... ,��'.tTr -.'��� -*���'* \"* .'.��'. ��� -* m~m-m9, ' \" ,t *> Wi*\"* .**>��� * .-JLttH Coast News, March 18,1991 C.F.

Lawrence on the prairies IN A NUTSHELL S Nutter The Winnipeg Grain Exchange was, in the thirties, the way all the prairie wheat got out to the world. There was certainly nothing perfect about this operation, but il was the only way. There were hundreds of traders with offices in ihe big old building a step or two from Portage and Main, and ihey bartered and gambled and otherwise wangled trades that would eventually see wheat, perhaps not yet even sown, delivered to countries throughout the world. There should have been some planet- wide non-commercial system you may say, but there wasn't, and there isn't. In the late thirties 1 was a junior in an investment company and would usually be in Ihis rabbit warren, or wolve's den, several limes a day. You got to know your way around of course. Some of your clients would have really a lol of dough, and some would be barely teetering on an edge. There would be monthly ups and downs. Some of your favourites, as people, you might find on the downside. One of these was a man I remember only by his first name Edwin. He had at first a usually small office with a flimsy door, frosted glass half-way up, and his name painted thereon. Inside however, it was full of books. Edwin's status as an international wheat trader remained shadowy in my experience. Ii got that I would pop in there and he would lend me books from these piles around the walls. What he seemed to do all the time was read, and if you asked him about ihe market he could look prcity vague. There were of course lots of other guys sitting around in these liule offices and, having made some ploy or other, jusi waiting around to see if it was going lo work oul. They took lo preying on Edwin's books, and Edwin finally look over the office next to his, knocked out ihe wall, and started a commercial lending library. Well ihere seemed lo be always a lot of guys in there, furrowing the brow, and discussing Joyce and Dashiel Hammet instead of what was going up on the boards. Edwin got in a secretary to handle the monies, took over a third office, and the place was humming. I don'l know where he got his books but 1 suspect from London. He had come himself from London and he certainly had copies of stuff it was hard to get in Winnipeg, or anywhere in Canada it turned out. We didn't believe Ihere was censorship in our land of the free, but if you went to the Hudson's Bay Book Store and ordered a copy of Ulysses you had to pay in advance, and ihey told you that maybe it would not make it over the border. I paid twice for mine. Bui Edwin had had it on his shelves for three months before then, and various other authors of rather tangy reputation at the time���James Branch Cabell and D.H. Lawrence to mention two. It was a copy of one of Lawrence's books, from Edwin's shelves, that got me into a bit of trouble. There are some things from one's past lhal don't seem to add up today, but I was, at this time, the president of the Anglican Young Peoples Association in Manitoba. This had to do mainly with the fact lhal ihe AYPA had a good drama festival going, and less, I would have to admit, with any personal ecclesiastical leaning. I was, however, also Lay Reader lo ihe Archdeacon of Rupert's Land. So there came a cathedral affair al which I was reading the lessons. I arrived ut Ihe changing room wilh one of Edwin's D.H. Lawrence's in my pocket. Unfortunately this was a slim black volumn called The Man Who Died, and of course I left it there. It look me a few days to realize what I'd done. The Man Who Died is absolutely the last book you would want to leave in an Anglican cathedral. In it, Lawrence is trying to grope his way to an idea of the possible oneness of religions. Jesus, the principle character, does not die on the cross, is brought to you by Joseph of Arimathea, wanders off into Egypt, and has a really lull experience with a priestess of Isis. Well, I mean, after all...I thought of just leaving it there. But it was a treasured book of Edwin's (and still I think a reasonably rare item). I went along to ihe good old verger. He knew all about the book, looked al me with deep sorrow, and led me to ihe curate's office. The curate was ihere and the book was on his desk. The curate was one of those lean types thai used to come out of Cambridge. He tapped on the book wilh a fingernail as if not wanting lo gel any flesh on il: \"Where did you gel this book?\" \"At the Grain Exchange,\" I said. He looked at me in total bafflement, gave the slightest nod to-the book, and I scooped it and fled.

The walk-a-run-a-thon has become a focal point for any rivalry between the two chambers. Through a point system, each is credited with the number of participants and money raised in each community. Sechelt has lost an edge this year, after winning the first two challenges. Illana Holloway, who has raised the most money of any single walker both years, will not be walking for Sechelt Ihis year. Instead, Ms Holloway has decided lo go for off-shore sponsorship. Within the next few weeks, the CF chapter will be sending out information packages which will encourage businesses to sponsor al leasl one representative in ihe event. Emcee Cliff Garretl told the meeting lhat organizers anticipate raising over $25,000 ihis year. The chapter gained official status lasl May, and since that lime, according lo treasurer Elite Simpkins, has raised $48,250. It is anticipated lhal amount could be doubled by the first anniversary. Limited edition prints of the most recent painting donated by Liz Mitten-Ryan were made available at the meeting. 'Harmony of Purpose' is the second painting Mitten-Ryan has donated and all proceeds from the prints go to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Chapter president Elva Dinn told the meeting of the increasing need lor research funds as researchers close in on a cure for ihis deadly disease. \"Excitement is very high,\" she added. In the past 18 months, research in cystic fibrosis has made three major breakthroughs with far-reaching implications for treatment and diagnosis of many genetic diseases. The most recent was announced earlier this month by Ihe same team at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto who, in 1989, isolated the gene which causes the disease. Researchers have now discovered the reasons for the build up of thick, dry mucus in the lungs and pancreatic ducts of victims of cystic fibrosis. With each breakthrough in understanding researchers come closer to the discovery of a control and cure. ��^ssSSgs msim r\\ SBPAL VALUE -^Jh's Limited Edition Performer comes specially WP^tndreWup 22^ that shows jgf off to be a real jeature attraction at just FORD SK'AL FEATURES ���Air or automatic ���Power door locks ���Power side windows ���Dualelectric mirrors ���Speed control ���Electronic AM/FM stereo radio WW. cassette tape player ���wst aluminum wheels ���PLUS, MORE!

Deo Oram SectieR: Ruth Forrester, Donreo Sherman Clearcutting polarizing community Editor: I won't want to question the expertise of our local foresters and loggers; but, on the other hand I wouldn't want to question the very real concerns forwarded by local citizens. More to the point is the fact that arguments and experts can be found to support either side. Clearcuts are genuinely not a very pretty thing to look at. Having your backyard or fish- egg hatchery washed away by slides or flash-floods originating on old cut-blocks or poorly built roads is not a pleasant experience. Watching the last stands of old-growth and wilderness areas disappear isn't exactly inspiring either. Finding out that as an individual citizen, or as a group, you have no real control over what is happening in your backyard is a shock. Vet, given the relatively recent intense emergence of the debate it would be unfair to expect industry to re-equip overnight. It's not that easy to change. Jobs are being lost. Moreover, progress is being made to address environmental and public concerns and credit is due for these efforts. Continued citizen interest and in volvement can only serve to continue this process. Something needs to be done to resolve the problem before we become too polarized in our stances. Each side must realize that, not only is there a lot to learn, but that behind every crises there are hidden opportunities. Perhaps, rather lhan tossing the coin back and forth, we can stand it on its edge, place a table-top on it and sit down around il. Dan E. Cardinall Second thoughts on Small Editor: With a heavy heart I must apologise for misleading your readership and withdraw my recently published endorsement of Mayor Eric Small. I now find that Mr. Small, as Gibsons' appointee to the Regional District will not support the rest of the directors in their efforts to purchase Block 7 of Gospel Rock for parkland. During his election campaign he promised to save Gospel Rock for park. Shame on you, Mr. Mayor. You absolutely do not represent the people of Gibsons on this!

Sales Representative Paul Hamilton Coast News, March 18,1991 Land Use Seminar a success by Rom Nicholson The public concern over forestry and land use practices was apparent last week as a large audience nearly tilled the Indian Band Hall to hear several experts discuss the issues. Bruce Siefert of the Planning Department of the Ministry of Forests told the audience lhat \"present planning methods are not meeting current needs, so we are adopting a new view.\" He said that his ministry has plans to team up with other agencies and public user groups in a consultation process that could redesign many current practices in forestry. Dr. Hamish Kimmins, Professor of Forest Ecology at UBC, told the audience lhat although efforts have been made lo manage forests on the basis of ecological concerns since 1975, it wasn'i until 1987 that the new policy was incorporated into the Forest Act. \"It will take 25 years,\" he said, \"for Ihe evidence of the changes that are occurring in forestry to be apparent. \"The greatest single threat to our forests is not whether or not we clearcut...it is human population growth, wilh the resulting resource demands, climatic changes and air pollu tion. It is we, the industrial nations, the consumers, who affect the forests. We must change the way the world's forests are being managed, we have to get away from exploitation, we have to get to a sustainable basis...\" Kimmins said that the academics have been \"a miserable failure\" in awakening people to the dangers to the environment and credits the environmental movement with creating the possiblity for change. He warned that rhetoric must now be replaced with solid scientific facts for the \"implementation of the policies and regulations it takes to achieve belter management.\" He described BC as \"one of ihe most ecologically and climatically diverse areas in the world\" and warned of the dangers of generalization. Ron Elder, silviculturist with Fletcher Challenge, reiterated Kimmons' warning about the dangers of generalization, and ihe need lo deal with each area on a site specific basis. \"The current outcry against clearcutting may lead to a curtailment or elimination of clear- cutting in the silvicultural system���that is the choice of society. It would have serious implications to forest management in BC.\" I Some give, some receive, all benefit * **w i /fa ���luLill atjfaSOlKHl Gary Foxall is pictured receiving a certificate of recognition from Eileen Brown, assistant coordinator of Ihe Blood Donor Clinic to be held on the Coasl.

Ray Green has had several years experience in the use of sheep as a means of weed control in reforestation. He described a very successful system where flocks of about 500 sheep, along with shepherds, sheep dogs and predator control dogs, go into an area and effectively control all the common weed species, bul leave the con ifers intact. Jay MacArthur, of the federation of BC Mountain Clubs, stressed Ihe importance of maintaining wilderness values in forested regions. He said lhal recreational groups are becoming more active in providing facilities like trails and campsites and doing research on forest resources. \"We, as a group of concerned people, need to get involved in the planning process,\" he said. \"I'd like to see more selective logging, with bigger trees left. Are short term profits worth ihe cost of liquidating the old growth forests? When it really comes down to it, there is no easy answer.

Still in its first year, the choir was given a standing of 'Excellent' for its performance, a more than encouraging start for the pupils. This year there are 21 youngsters from four schools in the choir, directed by Janice Brunson, music teacher in several schools in the northern reaches of the district. \"Any pupil in the school district may take part,\" says Janice, \"We're grateful to the Board for their support, too.\" The district is well served by music teachers in most schools, and a couple of the others by regular staff members. Karin Tigert of Sechelt Elementary told us that she has a choir in her school and Gibsons music teacher, Tom Williams, has a choir there. And those are only the schools we inquired about. In We Remember When, last week, the 25 Years Ago item told of Gibsons Elementary choir's appearance on CBC radio, That would be the Schools' Broadest,, the last live radio show the corporation had. (Then it got too big for its britches.) The director was Muriel Neilson. An extra-curricular project then, schools later were served by music teachers who also filled in as \"helping\" teachers. Good to see, now, this widespread program in the school district. PHOTO BRINGS MEMORIES From Victoria where they continue to enjoy the city and at present the early flowering trees, shrubs and flowers, Ross Gibsons sends greetings and a WmHW ���yr-r \"q photo of the \"Gap\" seen between snow festooned firs from a point in Granthams. The photo is signed G. Cress- well who will be remembered by many an Elphinstone grad of the SO's and rjO's as the photographer for their group pictures. A custodian at the secondary school during that time, George Cresswell was not only a photographer with a professional touch, but an expert in several other hobbies; notably, in growing carnations and chrysanthemums, and constructing his own television set and an electric organ. Rower growing ceased when obtaining permits for the import of seed from England became too onerous. Daughter Dorothy, retired from the Bank of Montreal in Gibsons two years ago, tells us that George will be 90 this July. They soon leave Granthams to live in their new house just being finished in Langley. \"We will be near other members of the family there.\" In George's flies of photos there are still copies of all the Elphinstone grad groups taken during his years on staff. Speaking of the Cresswell photo that he sent, Ross is reminded of hiking and picnicking on the Bluff which, along with Gospel Rock, were serene places to enjoy nature.

GIBSONS ELEMENTARY The school is the first to view and hear the Earthquake Awareness presentation that will be given in the district by teacher Ian Thomson and Director of Buildings and Grounds, Anton Hendricks. An updated manual was distributed to the teachers and custodians, as well as demonstrations of the hazards arising from loose objects hurtling about a classroom in a voilent quake. On another school activity, music teacher Tom Williams told us of an Education Week assembly program. Entertainers at this Talent Show were both pupils and teachers. \"The singing and dancing showed a great deal of preparation by all who took part,\" said Mr. Williams, \"and the teachers outdid themselves in the final number when they did some Presley songs from the 50's and 60's.\" by Jwtce Lctthton M6-3S41 SHARING, SHARING (Catherine Anne Trueman, the new Beaver leader, may be new to the Coast, but she sure isn't new to Scouting. She comes to us with experience in various areas of Scouting and al present is also the Regional coordinator for Beavers for the Vancouver-Coast area with duties to provide resources and to train and plan activities for the region. Known as 'Ranger Rick' to the new Roberts Creek colony, Ms Trueman started the first Tuesday night meeting at Camp Douglas with busy activity. While parents were registering and reading about coming activities and events, the young 'kids' were busy fitting together puzzles and figuring out mazes. The beavers' neighbours, the owl and the squirrel, were also on hand to welcome the boys to the Roberts Creek Beaver Pond. The boys formed a circle around the pond. With Ranger Rick leading and coaching, the Beavers chanted 'beavers, beavers, sharing sharing sharing', announcing who they are and what they do. Sharing is the main lesson for Beavers. A few Ranger Rick rules preceded the running games. During one game designed to practise different positions (ie 'chopping position', 'beaver salute', 'river banks', etc) she announced a direction (N-S-E- W) the boys would run toward. When she announced a position they would stop to perform it before then rushing toward another announced direction. The number hug was another unique game. Everyone would run about until Ranger Rick said a number. Then they would have to form a hug group of that many people. After all this running came a movie about beavers���the real ones that build dams and eat bark. After that they did some pasting and to finish up sang songs with accompanying action movements. Each child went home with the Beaver Law and Promise written on iheir pasting project and a crocheted face made by Ranger Rick. The evening was packed with exciting activity. Ms Trueman exhibited the organization of a well trained leader. Roberts Creek is very fortunate to have her in Scouting. I want to extend her a warm welcome. Beavers are boys ages five to seven. The colony meets Tuesdays from 6:15 to 7:30 pm at the Salish Lodge at Camp Byng. Registration is just prior to the meeting. Call Linda for information 885-3165. FOREST WORKERS' PANEL A panel of forestry workers, many of them small owner/operators, will hold a dialogue on forestry related issues Thursday, March 21 at 7:30 pm at the Roberts Creek Hall. Basically this will be a question/answer period with statements and opinions encouraged from all present. These forestry workers are to be commended for volunteering time and sharing information in the hopes that airing differences can create a greater understanding among all of us affected by the forests of the Sunshine Coast.

Okay, so this is the week that spring emerges (at least officially) from under the dark carpet of winter. The threat of freezing temperatures is fading fast and milder weather is moving in. Is that any reason to leap up out of your chair and abandon your pile of winter reading? You bet itisl You don't have to look at a calendar to notice that it's light out at six o'clock or that little buds that had gone unnoticed have exploded into patches of colour against the mud brown of late winter. The daily westerlies are beginning to arrive, the tides are shifting from midnight to midday lows and kelp beds are already sporting 15 to 20 foot streamers. If all this isn't enough to make you want to poke your nose out the door, at least open a window so you can enjoy the spring concert provided by all the birds arriving back from their winter vacation. The tourists have noticed the change in season too, because small groups of little white boats are beginning their weekend pilgrimages up to Princess Louisa Inlet.

In our homes, favourite recipes are drawn from the box and decisions made about which will be built and taken to the bake table on Saturday, March 23 at 11 am. The Seniors' men get only supervisory help with their baking and I have overheard the words \"kitchen is a mess.\" I guess one shouldn't eavesdrop on conversations! All of this and more activity result in a successful Easter Sale and Tea. I learned from the oil painting group that there will be some saw blade clocks for sale. The scenes painted on the clock faces are unique portrayals of Coast life using the natural beauty of water, trees and wildlife. Again, there will be a food hamper. Everyone, please remember to bring canned goods or whatever you think would do for the hamper.

Joel Johnstone photo Congratulations to those artists whose work was accepted lo represenl the Sunshine Coast at the Images and Objects IX held in conjunction with the government sponsored BC Festival of the Arts in May. This year (here were 128 entries out of which jurors Keith Wallace and Lynda Gammon chose IS wilh 10 honorable mentions. These 25 works are on display al ihe Arts Centre in Sechell until April 7. Accepted works include cabinetmaking, painting, photography, sculpture, drawing and mixed media work by the following artists: Edmund Bulter, Roger Handling, Robert Kinnard, Kenneth McMillan, June Malaka, Norene Marshall, Christel Fuoss-Moorc, Neejat- say, Michelle Pedersen, Bill Perry, Marilyn Rutledge, Trudy Small, Maurice Spira, Axel Stenzel and Larry Westlake. Raku pottery by Ron Patterson will be showing along wilh Ihe juried exhibition until April 7. His work uses to advantage ihe contrasting lustrous ir- ridescence and charcoal blacks resulting from the raku process, while exploring the possible ways in which colours can be related to shapes���respecting ihe boundaries of shapes, contradicting them, or connecting ihem. A feature of most of his work is the changes of colour and texture which are linked cither by technical necessity or choice in such a way that one seldom seems to vary without a corresponding change in the other. Ron's play with form is also entertaining, ranging from punctuation���dimples or denudes in an otherwise consistent curve���to confrontation���a voluptuous vase whose 'handle' skewers its own throat, or a bowl that threatens to bite back.

Gardening Notes by Marguerite Welcome newcomers to our Coast, and all hardy gardeners waiting for warmer weather. We can help ourselves by spreading rapide lime or dolomite lime on the soil or the lawn evenly; its purpose is lo correct or adjust the acid- alkaline balance of the soil. Under over acidic conditions, micro organisms are unable to effectively decompose composts and reduce them to a form that plants can utilize. Lime sweetens sour soil making it more productive. Our coastal winter rain leaches out and soil needs to be tested for ideal PH balance, which is moderate at 6.5. If moss is a problem, iron sulphate spread evenly can be applied now and may have to be repeated again. When the moss turns black, rake well and dispose and burn. Do not put pn the compost, heap. Tlje ap- \" plication of compost,\" peat moss, liquid manure, leaf mold and any organic material mixed and spread over the surface will help effect a cure. Lawns need sulphate of ammonia diluted later to improve them. You may like to grow your own tomatoes from seed; let your young ones watch���they love lo grow things (our future generation). Plant three seeds in a pot with moistened sterile soil (do extras for standbys), cover wilh clear plastic or glass, and place on lop of fridge. When the plants are showing, in about a week, uncover, bring into light out of draughts; window sills arc fine. Plant soluble starter mix (10:52:17), diluted and given to plants, aids strong growth. Point Grey Chrysanthemum Association Plant Sale takes place at 2678 King Edward Avenue, Vancouver on Saturday, March 23 at 10 am. Sturdy plants are available. The Gibsons Garden Club meeting is being held in the Marine Room below the library, on Thursday, March 21 at 7:30 pm\" Newcomers' and guests welcome. Slide show of container gardening is the topic. Refreshments served. Coast News, March 18,1991 13. Rolling through the Rockies Pages from a Peter Trower life log Next morning, we breakfast at the same excellent restaurant and begin the long haul south. The highway follows the train tracks for some distance, then veers off through a long stretch of flat country, scrubbily-treed and unprepossessing. We cruise through the slapdash small towns of Blue River and Avola, composed largely of trailer homes, as drab and cheerless- seeming as the terrain. Beyond them, the country begins to brighten up again. We stop for lunch at the pleasantly-rustic farming community of Birch Island. At the one-time trading post of Little Fort, we turn west on the Bridge Lake shortcut and head for the Cariboo Highway. It is a live logging road and extremely narrow in places. Fortunately, we encounter no trucks. The bumpy gravel comes to a thankful end and we emerge near 70 Mile House. A couple of miles south we see a sign marked Painted Chasm and Yvonne turns off. \"This place is worth seeing\", she tells me. As usual, she is right. Greal ragged red gouge in Ihe harsh flesh of the ground trees tightrope walking the crumbling brink Brush-bottomed drygulch carving river long vanished Poor man's Grand Canyon lost in Cariboo Country We stand close together at the dizzy echoing edge throwing random pebbles lhal spin down forever \"My mother once told me ihis is where a Scotsman dropped a nickel!\"you say culling ii all down lo size. Leaving the chasm, we wheel south again through Clinton and Cache Creek. Pasturelands, yellow with dandelions, give way to sagebrush and arid brown hills. We are entering desert country again. We detour briefly through Ashcroft, bypassed by the highway, planning to possibly stay the night there. But the bone-dry town holds no appeal for either of us. We continue on. At the town of Spences Bridge, straddling the Thompson River, we finally call a halt.

After supper we walk across a windy bridge to the oldest part of town. There isn't much here except an old hotel where Yvonne once stayed as a girl. We have contemplated staying here but quickly change our minds after a close look at the weather- beaten premises. The establishment has definitely seen much better days. We settle for a modern motel unit on the fashionable side of the bridge. Now it is the final day of our journey but there are still a few surprises ahead���particularly for me. I have never driven down the Fraser Canyon before. Soon we begin to enter the daunting gorge. I gawk around in utter wonderment. It is all I have been led to expect���and then some. I haven't been this impressed since our run through the Rockies. Yvonne, of course, is an olii Canyon hand. She first travelled through it as a girl, long before the present highway was built. She begins to tell me a few hair-raising tales about those Please turn to page 17 HOmimflDE INTERNATIONAL SPECIALTIES lentil & Borsch Soups Schnitzels Banana & Walnut toaf Cakes - Apple Streusal, Black Forest Cake & German Cheese Cake - Chocolate & Lemon Pound Cakes Try our outdoor 880 for lunch.,, Smokies or Bavarian Sausages on a bun 11-4 SAT & SUN Doll Favorite* - Subs - Sandwiches - Quiche - Pizza > The Bay Market Your neighbourhood foodmart In Horseshoe Bay!% Minutes from the ferry line-up.

Al major After hearing so many good things about Frances' Dining Lounge in Pender Harbour, I had to check it out for myself. A friend and I drove up from Sechelt and found that behind the modest exterior of the Pender Harbour Hotel lay a gem for restaurant lovers. The elegant surroundings and wide variety on the menu, including steaks, seafood and many specialty items, assured me that what I had heard was true. Their fantastic salad bar, the rival of any I've seen, was included with all dinners, but neither of us could resist the scrumptious sounding appetizers, so we tried both. My companion had the scallops and bacon, which were fresh and perfectly prepared. The deep-fried camembert I selected melted delicately in my mouth. For the main course I ordered the grilled prawns; they were beautifully presented on a bed of rice with deliciously baked tomatoes on the side. My companion chose the smorgasbord, a popular favourite on Tuesday and Wednesday nights, featuring: pork chops in a creamy mushroom sauce; mashed potatoes; ratatouille; clam linguini; fried chicken; dry garlic spareribs. She said they were just like Mom used to make, only better because there were so many choices, and wished they used platters instead of plates. The total bill, including two cocktails and GST, was $44.80. <\\, FAMILY DINING Cafe Pierrot- Comfortable atmosphere wilh warm, helpful staff.

CHANGE IN BUS SCHEDULE j Sunshine Coast Transit ��� Minibus IMPORTANT NOTICE Commencing Monday, March 4,1991 the following changes will take effect. Sechelt to Langdale Ferry Terminal Rugby victory Gibsons Pigs persevere by John Rainer Darn right! You heard it correctly! Hard work, patience, and perseverance finally paid off. The 'Lads in Blue' have notched Ihe elusive 'W* on the scoreboard. Could this be the road to the finals? I say not, but it is an encouragement for the coming weeks and for nexl year in particular. Being at ihe field early and ready this past Saturday helped in preparation and non- confusion (normally the coach's headache). This week the fellows were all set by the time the opening whistle blew. The opposition this game were Ihe Capilano's from the North Shore, usually coming to the Coasl with a strong mobile side. There was no exception this lime. Coming oul from the start, ihe Caps had most of the open play, using solid running and controlling the ball in the loose, by means of rolling Ihe ruck; ihey moved about the field with steady momentum. The locals were giving it their all and defensed much belter, especially close to their own goal-line. The match was well played, back and forth, some nice continuous movement all 'round the pitch. The Pigs got caught a couple of times for penalties, giving the - Capilano kicker the opportunity to go for goal. He was good on one and the score was Capilanos 3 - Pigs 0. Laler in the half, the fluid play of the Caps drove them through the (at this point) confused defenses of the Pigs and they were rewarded with a try. Convert no good, so Caps 7 -Pigs 0. This being the half-time score is a fair tribute to the experience the Pigs have gained in Iheir first season of play, as a young enthusiastic group. A few changes were made at half, and away we went for another 30 minutes. Desperately trying to eliminate the goose egg on the board, the Pigs pushed forward, pressuring valiantly, only lo be turned away by good tackling and that still frustrating, not quite there, finishing touch. Quick note: It was not Quinn Kelly playing for us a couple of weeks ago. The player's name was Jim \"Q\" Nasium. Writer's error. Back to the game. Both sides were playing well, the Capilano's still holding a 7-0 lead, just then the aforementioned \"O\" Nasium made a nice break through the opposing back-line and scooted down the field. With pressure closing in, he popped the ball up and into the in-goal area. As he pursued it fervently and was about to burst clear and pounce upon it, the defender obstructed him and a penalty try was given. Convert no good, Caps 7 - Pigs 4. This was a great day for the spectators. Holding on to a narrow margin, the Capilano's tried again and again to increase their lead. Staunch defense by the Pigs kept the score the same.

Finally it happened, the break of the season. On the 15 yard mark a penalty was called, given to ihe Pigs, without hesitation. John \"The Vet\" Rainier (that's me) tapped the ball and swung it lo the blind side to Dean \"Dad' Johnston. Off he went to the goal-line, just within yards of the line he was caught, oh no! With calm experience he fed the ball out to Warren \"Chubby IB\" Hansen who plunged over for the score in the corner. Yahoo! Yipee! Conversion no good, Capilanos 7 - Pigs 8. Ya!!!!!!! Still in shock at the time of writing and trying to figure out, how? It really is true, the Gibsons' Pigs have a victory!! The final score remained Capilano's 7 - Pigs 8. Well done boys! The fellows now go to town lor three road trips and return April 6 for the last league game, against the UBC Totems. Hope to see you there!

Joel Juhnilnne pkolo Rubin reports on conference by Rote Nicholson Environmental activist Carole Rubin has just returned from the BC Environmental Network Annual Spring Conference at UBC. In an interview with the Coasl News, she explained that the network is a group of non-government, nonprofit organizations, which along with peace groups, native and labour organizations, was established 10 years ago to enable groups that were working on the same issues to share information and strategy, and have a support system. \"The network doesn't take stands on any issue,\" said Rubin, \"but the caucuses within the network do take stands. We have caucuses on forestry, pesticides, energy, wilderness and so on.\" Rubin, who for several years has taken an active part in environmental issues at both the provincial and federal levels, is on the sterling committee of the BC Environmental Network, and of the Forest Caucus, and is the chairperson of the Pesticide Caucus. \"There is also the Canadian Environmental Network of 2500 groups which links up all of the provincial and regional networks across the country for information sharing, and for formulating political strategies within our own regions and also on the national scene. There are 300 groups in the BC network.\" Rubin said that most of the groups, which are largely run by volunteers, are connected to each other and to electronic bulletin boards and electronic mail. \"The coming together for a stronger voice is really strengthening the profile of the environmental movement and that is why environmental issues have been in the forefront in the last four to five years. Our voice has been getting stronger as we've been getting more connected and consolidated. \"Every year we're required to have an annual general meeting and we lake advantage of that to talk about the various issues and hot spots. All of us have other jobs and it's all volunteer time which usually ends up be ing more than a full time job would be.\" SUNSHINE KITCHEN ��� CABINETS - 806-04 ft ���Showroom Kern's Ptaia.Hwy 101 Open Tuesday to Saturday 10-4 pntj I SALES ft INSTALLATION * Commercial & Residential * * Carpet & Resilient Flooring * ,.��.*���*������ phone ���������**���.*.*#I Popping SHOWROOM 5601 Hwy. 101, Sechelt Tuee.Frl. 12:30.6pm, Sat. fcM-fpm ���THE FLOOR STORE ��T TOUR DOOR ___ Bu weeaneer Marina ty Resort Ltd Located in Seciel Cove BB5-7888 MARINE SPECIALISTS? i VE ARS PARTS - SALES - SERVICE -REPAIRS K * C Tlurmoglsss ���.���*_ \\l^>i.\\i Cobn Boils now smM ..- Vi'' In-Stock MISC.

If the recommendations.- are followed, (because this is the usual advisory committee), it will make for some pretty positive changes in current pesticide laws. Part of the recommendations were to have a fifty per cent reduction on all pesticide use by 1995.\" Rubin went on to say that Professor Clarke Binkley, newly appointed Dean of Forestry at UBC, was one of the speakers at the forestry caucus last weekend. \"He basically said that he recognized that forest practices in BC had not been managed well. \"He also said two other interesting things���that we don't know what we're doing to an ecosystem when we're clearcutting���but it would probably be OK to double BC's Allowable Annual Cut. \"It was amazing that he could say such a thing in front of our group where most of us have advanced degrees, and that included many RPFs. But he did agree to accept whoever we chose as a delegate to sit on the advisory task force on changes to the undergraduate curriculum.\" Rubin said that other achievements at the conference included decisions to put together a forest watch manual and check list for groups to know what to look for when they're dealing with LRUPs; and an education package for schools on sustainable forest practices. \"And we're all actively working on a stewardship plan for community control of forests. We hope to have that in draft legislation form by the next provincial election and use it as an election priority.\" Rubin was home last week, but not for long. Last Thursday she was off to Washington, DC, where she was to speak at a conference called 'The Future of Change, a 10th Anniversary Pesticide Forum of the National Coalition Against the Misuse of Pesticides in the US.' \"People from all over the world are coming,\" she said. \"I've been asked to speak on \"The Canadian Experience, the Effect of Grass Roots Activism on a Community, Regional and Federal Level'. I'U also be moderating a workshop with B.B. Daniels, editor of Organic Gardening magazine. \"But I'll be home in time for the Thursday meeting (on forestry) in Roberts Creek.\" THE FIRST ANNUAL COAST NEWS PHOTO CONTEST We at the Coast News are happy to announce aa exciting new contest for our neighbours oa the Sunshine Coasl.

SCRD Briefs GOSPEL ROCK UPDATE At its regular meeting last Thursday, the SCRD released a summary of 106 letters endorsing the idea of acquiring the Gospel Rock property and creating a public park. Fifty letters emanated from Gibsons and Area E, 41 from Elphinstone students. Mayor Eric Small of Gibsons rejected the perception that the letters resulted from disparate individuals, prompted to write solely by their own initiative. \"It is a result of a letter writing campaign!\" Small insisted, adding, \"That it (the SCRD) received 108 letters in a two day period indicates...an organized campaign...I'm not opposed to a letter writing campaign, I just want this on the record.\" Also for the record, Small reiterated the fact that, a pro pos to the Gospel Rock \"campaign\", \"Gibsons does not have money for this project.\" YACHT CLUB APPROVAL IMMINENT In a letter to the SCRD from the Coast Guard regarding the application by the Seattle Yacht Club for approval of their existing marina float facilities in Garden Bay, Acting Director General J. Lorquet informed the board, \"It is our intention to proceed with formal approval within the next few weeks.\" Lorquet said that the Coast Guard is \"satisfied\" that the concerns of \"all adjacent property owners\" have been satisfactorily addressed. \"Ms Daly to the north is provided unimpeded access to her property and the yacht club has reacted positively to our recommendation by restricting vessel moorage on their southern float to respect Mr. Lewis' access to his float to the south.\" Chairman Peggy Connor noted that the Coast Guard \"are not doing (in this letter) what they said they would do during our meeting with them on the site.\" Director McGillivray noted, \"What we really object to (here) is the process. It's indicative of what will be coming down the pike.\" Another director suggested that the SCRD \"act immediately by going to the Ministry of Lands to find out about...jurisdiction. We are opening a can of worms.\" Ms Daly is off the Coast and not available for comment. GREEN BOX SUMMIT CONFERENCE The SCRD agreed to call for and convene a meeting to deal with the problems arising from the location and number of green postal boxes along the Coast. Directors cited safety hazards, inconvenience, and vandalism as being among the side effects of the way the boxes are located. Representatives of the RCMP, Ministry of Highways, and the various postmasters and postmistresses along the Coast will be invited to attend. Sechelt Alderman and SCRD Representative Bob Wilson expressed gratitude to the board for involving themselves in a cause he has long championed.

It was fined $50,000 on ihis count. \"The 1989 exceedances occurred before the mill was modernized,\" noted HSPP President Bill Hughes, adding that, \"Howe Sound's new clarifier and secondary effluent treatment system have been an outstanding success in achieving effluent quality that is consistently better than our permit requirements, so we decided lo put ihe past behind us as quickly as possible by clearing the slate of old charges.\" Commenting on the spill of lasl September, Hughes says, \"That was an isolated incident that occurred during the startup phase of the new mill. We have made mechanical changes to ensure it will not happen again.\" Hughes acknowledged lhat the company had problems meeting its permit requirements with the old mill but said he was confident that these problems would not occur at the modernized mill. \"We are committed lo protecting the environment and we are using state-of-the-art technology to back up that commitment.\" HighPrlceZ Blasting nu���� - - \\ Here 1 t=xa just mP\"e!
