Marvin Stapleton addressed Community Hall. memnbers of the IWA at the Pictured here is Marvin voicing meeting held last Tuesday bis opinion as to what heritage evening in the Newcastle means to himn and bis famnily. IWA Showdowri (Continued from page 1) Newtonville, as a resui of a new dump. These veicles (trucks) will pass directly by Newtonville Public School and tbrough residential area. KK2 is the only site tbat is available directly through a residential area. This matter later proved to be one of the major concerns that face ibose opposed to the site. Another concern raised by Town of Newcastle staff was the information tbat the IWA had received from Laidlaw. 'Me IWA is using information regarding core-drilling done on the Laidlaw site. Though drilling is being done on the Stapleton land most of the drilling seems to be concentrated in one small area. t is feared that if the IWA relies to heavily on the Laidlaw tests, the stuilies of the Stapleton property may be incomprehensive. "The public's interesi is for the work to be done by the IWA instead of a party hoping 10 promote landfill," says Ron Kanter speaking as council for the Committee of Clarke Constituents. After the Town Council and staffs questions and concernis were addressed, the floor was opened up for delegations. The firsi delegation was Marvin Stapleton on behaîf of the Stapleton brothers. Stapleton criticized the competence of the IWA, saying that millions of dollars have been wasted in incompetence. "An educated man, deciding the fate of our land asked (in February) if we would soon be plowing our wheat fields so that soil samples could be taken." Stapleton patiently and emotionally explained the land's importance to the family. The IWA once said that beritage is worth saving. "143 years of history is a poor temporary solution to the OTA garbage." t seems unfair ibat as Mr. Stapleton put it, "livelibood ~and beritage can be destroyed by the IWA." De1egations were heard from the Commitîee of Clarke Constituenis, SAGA, LEAC and a number of concemned citizens. "What part of 'NO' don't you understand," asked Terry Caswell, speaking as a member of the CCC and a long-time resident. Caswell went on te point oui a number of problems associated with the site. On an agricultural basis, KK2 yields to high potential impact. Hydrogeological studies done by the Region show ibat the site is located in a complex hydrology. An end resuli of a dump ai site KK2 could be a substantial loss in plant and animal life. She quoted the IWA as saying "Ail habitais on sites would be losi as weli as plant and animal lives." "Residents would be made prisoners of their own homes during dump hours," adds Casweil. Gone would be the days of summer breezes through open windows and peaceful quiet days outside. "No jusi means NO", finished Caswell emphatically. "Newtonvilie, as a community, stretches from Lake Ontario te Concession Road 6, from Port Hope Boundary Road to Morgan's Road. Located in the communuty are many long-residing farmn families and several transplanted urbanites," Judy Hurvid told the IWA. The social impact on the community would be high. "Social impact cannot be counted by population." According to IWA studies, only 250 people live within the KK2 impact zone. "Wby then", questions Hurvid, "did more than that show up for the protesi," (held late lasi year). Newtonville Public School lies within the impact zone. The 150 students who attend the school were not taken into consideration. Yet, the students will be highly affected by a dumpsite, particularly by the increased amouni of traffic. Social impact, envîronmental concerns, the loss of precious agricultural lantd. All of these concerns and more were vocalized by those presenit ai the meeting. Walter Pitman, president of the IWA îold the hall that he had not had a more moving, experience than he had that night in the Newcastle Community Hall. It seemed, however, at times that there were inconsistencies and discrepancies in the answers given by the Authority. t was said that it was hoped that the IWA was "listening to what was being said and noi just hearing." Diane Hamre told the IWA, "We have more than our share, we have been taking everyone else's garbage for years." Hopefully the meeting helped the IWA to realize that the selection of KK2 -as the preferred site would be a drasiic mistake, and the impact would be high in many areas. Pitman told the crowd that though the task was an unenviable one, it is their job "to prove ibat ibis site is a better long term environmental choice than others. " Mr. Pitman, listen and don't just hear. KK2 is not the better choice. September 7th and 8th at 8:15 p.m. ini Town Hall, Orono. Mr. and Mrs. Wm.
