4 - Orono Weekly Times, Wednesday, October 22,2003 Paid Advertisement Port Hope Area Initiative Moving Ahead Your Opportunity to Interview an Ecologist A re blacknose dace important to the local ecosystem? How does the groundwater move in the Port Granby area? How important is farming to the economic life of eastern Clarington? Come to Low-Level Radioactive Waste EXPO 03 and comment on the preliminary findings of baseline environmental studies conducted in the site, local and regional study areas for the Environmental Assessment of the Port Granby Longterm Longterm Low-Level Radioactive Waste Management Project. This Friday and Saturday at Port Hope High School you can review the results and interview the scientists who conducted these studies over the past four seasons. There will also be opportunities to comment on both the short-term and long-term human health and safety considerations in the environmental assessment studies being conducted for the Port Granby Project. As the host of Expo 03, the Low-Level Radioactive Waste Management Office (LLRWMO) and its consulting scientists and engineers will present a great deal of information on studies conducted over the past year. More than one alternative for the Port Granby project Visitors to Expo 03 can review alternative concepts for the long-term management of the approximately 500,000 cubic metres of low-level radioactive waste now stored on the Port Granby site on the shoreline of Lake Ontario. One concept is to manage the waste on the existing site with a cover system and a constructed groundwater diversion system. A variation on this Durham Police conduct enhanced traffic enforcement alternative would see approximately 100,000 cubic metres of waste in the East Gorge area relocated in an engineered above ground mound on the existing site and the balance of the waste managed in place with the multi-component cover system and on-going groundwater collection and treatment. Another alternative would be to move the waste material to adjacent property north of Lakeshore Road and isolate the waste from the environment in an engineered above-ground mound with à multi- component liner and cover system. Viewpoints on the Project vary Visitors to Expo are invited to discuss issues related to the Port Granby Project with a variety of community and government groups interested in the environmental assessment of the project. You can talk to staff from the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission which licenses radioactive waste management facilities across the nation -- including the current Port Granby Waste Management Facility. The Municipality of Clarington and the Durham Nuclear Health Committee will be represented, as well as a new group called the South-East Clarington Ratepayers Association. Natural Resources Canada, the federal government department that is funding the Port Hope Area Initiative, will also be on hand,, There are about 15 different participants at Expo -- each with a unique perspective on the Project to discuss with interested visitors. Please consider dropping by Port Hope High School on Friday, October 24 th from 6 to 9 p.m. or Saturday October 25 th from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. On Saturday you may choose to take a guided walking tour of nearby temporary waste management sites operated by the LLRWMO. The Durham Regional Police Traffic Services Branch conducted a three day enhanced traffic enforcement project last week and issued a total of 535 tickets. The enforcement was conducted in Clarington, North Durham and Oshawa, with special concentration on high collision areas. Officers from the Community Police Offices across the region assisted officers with the traffic Services Branch. Of the 535 tickets, 428 were for speeding. The rest were for a variety of violations, violations, including fail to stop for stop signs, red lights, trip permits, seatbelt infractions and failing to produce the required documents. The highest speeder was travelling 52 km over the posted 50-km/hour speed limit and another motorist was stopped twice in a three kilometer span on Simcoe Street in Prot Perry. The Durham Regional Police Traffic Services Branch will continue with the enhanced traffic enforcement enforcement program at various locations throughout the year. The next enhanced traffic enforcement starts November 19th, 2003. Please continue to "Drive Safely" and "Obey all laws governing your driving." For more info on the enhanced traffic enforcement enforcement program please contact Sergeant Tom Whiteway of the Traffic Services Branch at 905-579-1520 ext. 5252. Jaworski Continued from page 2 plaints have to do with the deal struck by Peter MacKay and Orchard that the MacKay- led Tories would not merge with the Alliance. It seems odd that a deal like, that should even be. allowed, never mind followed. A gentleman's deal, however, is just that--a deal between gentlemen, without official enforcement.

And moral reproach is something MacKay should be used to since making the deal with Orchard in the first place. As I see it, a federal Conservative Party is nothing if not a good idea. If we make a few reasonable assumptions (like, for instance, that a significant significant number of Tory supporters supporters are willing to vote for a Conservative Party rather than shift to the Liberals), then the next election will "at least be interesting. The election election after that may lead to significant significant electoral gains, possibly possibly the formation of a new government.
