AIA S1IIUI>BE QA From our reports if appiears that Newcastle council or at least some of ifs members are concerned over t he fact that gravel pifs in the municipalitiy have yet f0 receive their Provincial licence. Their concern was f0 a greater degree over tlhe fact thaf fhe MUnicipality may be withouf gravel if the licences are not forfhcoming very shorfly. If was, apparently, suggested thaf Newcastle get approval of those pits they may wish f0 use and f0 turn the others over fo the Planning Comnmiftee- f0 consider. Kirk Entwisle suggested this was a type of discrimination. We beleive the councillor f0 be righf for if would bc discrimination if council or fhe planning commiffée acted only on those pifs which fhey~ wished to use fhemselves. The policy should not be based on who is going to use fhem but rather should they operafe in the parficular area and f0 sec- that they operate according f0 legislafioni. Ail nust be freafed alike. 18 REGIONAL FAIR TO DIE If would appear thaf alfhough some municipal represenfatives, and especially Mayor Rickard of Néëwcastle. seem f0o favour the amnalgamnation of fhe Orono and Oshawa fair info a Regional fair others are niof fortcominig with their support. This becamne evident lasf week when Mayor Rickard and Mayor Pofficary atfemipfed a meeting to consider the local fairs and their possible amalgamation. Oshawa did nofý ,give any indication thaf fhey would attend the meeting. If so happenied thaf on the saine evening thre Oshawa Fair board was considering a site for the Oshawa Fait- wesf of the cify. There bias been no indication from fthe Oshawa board that they favour any formn of amialgamration and if is about as quife from fthe Duirhamr Central Board. Locally individuals, wxill comment thiat they can see no menit in the joining of fhe fwo fairs and feel fbaf the fwo should continue wifh fheir individual identifies. This colun bas alway s supporfed this view fori-f is onily vfbrough such organizations and groups will eachi area bie able f0 mainitain sorte semiblance of ifs own personalify. We feel thaf (and pardon the expression) four one-borse shows are beffer than one four-horse shiow. If is fhe involmnent of people and wifh more on thre smnaller scale this involv ement is miuch more meanringifl.

Hlobbs Public Sehool Hampton andi Kendal Public School respectively. Both meetings will sfarf at 8:30 p.mn. These meetings have been scbeduled ýollow.,ing a request by fthe Durhami Federafion of Agriculture f0 bold imeetings ni these areas so that local people will have an opportun- ify vf0 attend and voice their concerns regarding the fines. Man ,y people were unable fo attend the formiaI hearings of the Commission that were beld ýin Port Hope on May2, 23.; and 24. Iiiniy opinion these meet-, ings are far- more important than those hield wifh Comn- mnonwealth and Hydro last year. Too miany people have taken for granfed thaf the route preferred by Hydro is final. Suchl is n'ot the case. The Solandt's Commission will mnake the final r-ecommllend(- ation f0 Cabinet as f0 whereý the flne will go. ba sed on informiation- that is received at thlese lhearings. The r-oute selecfed by Coml- mnonwealth and Hydro is the route they, des ire. If is therefore imiperafive thaf people attend these hearings f0 indicate f0 Dr. Solandt areas of' concern so that he will be able f0 mnake the best recom miendafion possible. I recognize thaf many people feel that information presented atfthe meetings last year was ignored by Com- mionw,ýeailthi and Hydro and thus see no reason for aittending any more meetings. Our organizafion, fon, is disappointed that 'Common- weailthi and Hydro almnost complefely disregarded the wishes of cifizens in this area. We are therefore atfending these hearings hopeful thaf Dr. Solandt wvilI consider and implemient the wvishes of citizens in the area. If appears that very few peopfle have yef realized the magnitude of the project and the effect if will have in the future. Many farmi operations will be disrupfed !by vthese fines and also by other developmnent thaf is ikelyv to oc'CUr als aresult 0f having the fine hlere. As infimated prev iously Durham ýFederafion of Agri culture urges ail citizens fo attend thiese mieetings and air their concerns. This is their lastI opporfunify f0 have input info determiining the location of' the fine.
