Critics of the plan state 407 is a bureautic fantasy and doubt that the debt-riclden, province will ever complete the project. At the present timre construction of 407, a ten lane thoroughfare, is under construction from Mississauga to Markham and is expected to bec omipleted by the year 200 1. Cliff Lumley, the projeci manager, said the route is ideal to spur indusirial developmnent in Durham and to reduce the traffic on 401. The process has been before the Region and the municipalities for the past couple of years and no objections has been forthcoming from the Town of Newcastle until the recent eruption of ihe Helpard and Daîzeli committee which has been calling for an open debate of the issue. The Town of Newcastle does have on its book a request for the public debate.

It was admiited ihat the present study group is uising someic of the McLaren information that was assembled when the Region sought 10 site and landfill earlier this year. The province ruled out the Regional plan when the NDP came to office. One of the main concems ai the meeting was the matter of compensation and the IWA team and Dillon representative said people within a site selected area could be faced with the loss of funds for mortgages and for crops. Harvey Thompson said the banks would be cutting off boans and farmers wouldnt be able to plant crops in the spring. The answer to the question was that funds were not available for such instances but that the matter would be taken under consid- eration. Charles Ewert, making a bîd for local council, said compensation should really not be a problem as support could surely be given t0 protect funds for property on a shortened basis. Marie Hubbard was present ai the meeting and called for protection of the Oak Ridge 's Moraine and the Ganaraska headwalers. She also spoke of the massive size of the site and questioned the possibility of incineration. Charles Ewert also made mention of incineration and new technology that could be available.
