"It's turned out to be a very clean park...in all fairness he (Mr. VanDe- Walker) is really trying," she added. Mrs. West said her drinking water comes from a well and has had no problems with it nor with her septic tank. And she feels "confident" that if a fire, broke out in the park fire trucks could get through. Mr. VanDeWalker said that if members of council council or town staff had any concerns about such matters matters as. property lines or fire hazards, he vvas. willing willing to work with them t'o fix them. "Let us know the problem problem and give us a chance to rectify the problem," he said. He added that the park was not on environmentally environmentally protected lands nor was it part of the flood zone. ■ Garbage pick-up is supplied t>y the park, the two wells are checked monthly and and a private private sewage removal firm comes in twice a week, he further stated.

The Ontario government is considering extending the primary evacuation zone for the Darlington Nuclear Generating Generating Station. A resolution before, the Ontario Cabinet would enlarge enlarge the evacuation area from 10 to 13 kilometres. However, this suggestion has not yet received cabinet approval. Margaret de Grace, a representative representative from Emergency Planning of Ontario, smd recently recently that when the evacuation evacuation zone was established two matters were considered. considered. The first matter was the extent of the evacuation zone in case of an emergency resulting from the design of a reactor. In this case 10 km was set as the zone. The second consideration was the extent the zone should cover in the event of the worst credible thing happening happening at the station. This sort of disaster could include damage from a bomb or sabotage. sabotage. Because of the second concern, the, province is considering considering a 13 km evacuation zone. Ms deGrace was attending attending one of three public open houses held last week for the purpose of discussing the Darlington Emergency Plan with members of the public. The plan, which was approved approved by Durham Regional Council in December of last year, had been in the development development stages *for the past two years. The province has a master master plan for emergency planning planning and a site specific plan for Darlington. They set the requirements requirements which must be met in an emergency plan and the Region then decides how they will meet the requirements. requirements. Although the open houses received limited attendance (six people attended the first one in Oshawa; eight people went to the second one at Darlington Information Centre Centre and 18 people were at the third open house) it has received some criticism from environmental groups. Durham Nuclear Awareness' Awareness' concerns about the plan include extending the safety zone to 30 km and having, a stationaiy siren system to notify the public in the evAht of an-accident. Ms 1 dwSrice mentioned that the 10 km evacuation zone is the first phase of the plan and is for implementing implementing plans for exposure control control measures such as sheltering sheltering and evacuation and not allowing people to drink the water. But, she said there is a second phase to the emergency emergency plan. This phase requires planning planning for ingestion control over a long term (days or weeks) which deals with such matters as banning consumption of contaminated contaminated food items. This zone extends for a 50 km radius from the station station and encompasses all areas areas of Durham Region, Metro Metro Toronto, York Region and areas of Victoria, Northumberland Northumberland and Peterborough. Peterborough. A police spokesperson said the system being used for notification of an emergency, emergency, with officers driving into areas to notify residents, residents, is the system Durham Regional Council decided to implement.. If there were an emergency emergency at the facility, police officers officers would drive into sectors of the primary zone using a public address system and siren blasts to alert the public. public. When the Region approved approved the emergency plan there was some concern about marine notification. Ms deGrace said the Durham Durham Regional Police didn't have the resources to notify vessels on the water of an emergency. She said the province is working on having the coast guard do it. "I think the Region will be happy with that solution to that problem" she said. From Page One Pat McDonald, a resident of Bond Head and a member of the historical society, addressed the committee Monday Monday after earlier submitting her written written opposition to the name change. She explained that the original Hanning Plan for Bond Head identified identified the street as "Manners" street instead instead of "Manvers". But, when the Beldon Historical Atlas Atlas of Northumberland and Durham Counties was published in 1878, the street was printed as Manvers. Mrs. McDonald asked that council "correct the error made over 100 years ago" and name the street "George anners Street." A planning report from Town of Newcastle staff explains that town poI : icy gives ; priority to street names of historical relevance. George .Manners in 1838, organized and was a charter director of the Bond Head Harbor Company. 1 Members of the general purpose and administration committee Mon;- day decided to rename the street George Manners Street instead of Yates Street. . - The name change will have to gô through the public process again arid ill wii have a chance the on name to give of the objectors their opinion street. According to the staff report, currently currently there is only one resident on the street, Mrs. Yates, who had requested the name change. Reactor Shutdown is Normal A shut-down of the first operating nuclear reactor at Darlington Generating Station Station last week was nothing to be alarmed about, a spokesperson said. Sue Stickley, community relations officer at the station, station, said the shut-down was part of the normal commissioning commissioning of the unit. When the reactor first starts up, she explained, tests are performed on the unit and if a problem occurs, the reactor is shut-down for the problem to be fixed. The problem that had to be fixed, Ms Stickley said "wasn't related to the reactor" reactor" but was associated with the turbines. Commissioning, or tests, are carried out'on new reactors reactors because, Ms Stickley said, Ontario Hydro feels its better to "find the problem now before the unit is up and running." Ontario Hydro is hoping to get approval to go to full power sometime this month. Ms Stickley said Ontario Hydro is waiting for the Atomic Energy Control Board to finish reviewing the software for the safety system 2 shutdown. The safety shutdown system system 2 is the backup safety system. When Darlington went from one per cent power to 20 per cent they put in a bypass bypass system for the software. software. h Ms Stickley said before hydro can increase power from 20 per cent, the AECB wants the proper software to be in place. When this is ready, Ontario Ontario Hydro will request a special special AECB meeting to seek the license to increase power. power.
