This Class EA is being conducted pursuant to the requirements of the Class Environmental Assessment for Municipal Sewage and Water Schedule C Projects. In October 1993, the Region gave notice that the preferred alternative for the winter sludge management«was the storage of digested sludge using enclosed storage tanks located on or adjacent to one or more of the existing water pollution control plant (WPCP) sites. This alternative was selected through a public consultation process. The Region, in consultation with a Public Consultation Working Committee has just completed the preliminary evaluation of the potenial sites for the proposed sludge storage facility. The candidate WPCP sites on the short list are Corbctt Creek WPCP in Whitby, Harmony Creck WPCP in Oshawa and Port Darlington WPCP in Bowmanville. The proposed sludge storage facility may be located on or adjacent to these candidate sites. WHITBY WENTINORTH ST.

SEEDS offers ideas, rewards and motivation for positive environînental actions. Each time a class completes a unit such as an in-depth study of whales, students receive the SËEDS Environmental Trophy to keep in their classroom for a two-week period. Ultimately by completing 100 projects, the school will receive a 'green banner. ' Educators wishing to inquire about SEEDS can cati the Edrnonton-based organization at (403) 424- 0971.

This promnotes efficient use of stock and supports a recycled produet te reduce its cost. A reminder: you only recycle when ? ou buy recycled. AIl ahool functions should incorporate the 3Rs.
