The committee will be chaired by Paul G. Cock- burn, director of the Mini- stry's Central Region. The establishment of the committee follows the com- pletion of an area study on waste management by the Toronto consulting firms of James F. MacLaren and M.M. Dillon. The study was commissioned in 1976 to de- termine the most effective, economic and socially acceptable means of handl- ing wastes generated in the study area, taking into account provincial and municipal policies and pro- grams in this field as well as probable technological and market developments. Forecasts in the study for waste generation and waste production were prepared for a 20 year period in five year increments. The MacLaren-Dillon re- port was circulated to the involved municipalities in October 1976 for study, review and comment. As a result of the comments from the municipalities, and consultation with represent- atives of Environment Ontario, the Ministry is establishing the committee' to implement the study re- commendations. The primary functions will be to co-ordinate preparation of individual master plans for solid waste management; to consolidate individual master plans to provide for intergrated solid waste management systems in the study area; and to investi- gate and report on the need for a Metropolitan Area Waste management Author- ity and under what terms of reference it could be es- tablished. Composition of the com- mittee will include two senior staff representatives from each of the municipal- ities and staff of the Minis- try, with Mr. Cockburn being designated by the Minister as chairman. Those representing the municipalities have been requested to be prepared to commit the necessary time for the committee to. be successful and be empower- ed to speak on behalf of their respective municipal- ity, although it is recognized that some matters may _have to be referred to municipal councils and the Ministry executive' commit- UNICEF looking for volunteers UNICEF, the United Nat- ions Children's Fund, started in Canada 22 years ago when volunteers raised the modest sum of $15,000. Last year by comparison, volunteer efforts raised more than $3 million, with more than a million children and 250,000 adults involved in the work. That money has been put to work to help provide safe drinking water in such coun- tries as Bolivia, Ethiopia, Mozambique, the Maldives and the Cape Verde islands. While progress is being made to assure more of the world's peoples with supplies of safe water, there is still much work to be done. It is estimated that as many as one-third of the children in the Third World suffer from diseases caused in part by poor drinking water. Every year, five million children die before their first birthday from water-borne diseases such as dysentry and cholera. For those who survive, the dis- eases can have severely de- bilitating affects, often leav- ing behind permanent dis- abilities. While those of us in coun- tries like Canada take a glass of clean drinking water pretty. much for granted, severe water problems still exist in more than 80 coun- tries around the world. UNICEF advises that Canadians can do something to assist these countries. Volunteers are needed dur- °3 to come.

Initially it is proposed that the committee will meet: twice a month, with the first meeting tentatively schedul- ed for October 24. Estimated refuse quanti- ties collected in the study area during 1976 were 2,605,000 tons. By 1981 this is expected to increase to 3,198,000 tons, and ten years, later to 4,422,000 tons. At the conclusion of the study projection period, 20 years or 1996, the refuse quanti- ties in Metropolitan Toronto and the Regional Munici- palities of Durham, York and Peel are eéxpected to total 5,194,000 tons per year. ures do not include special wastes such' as liquid or hazardous materials, sewage sludge, or demoli- tion materials. Each of the municipalities in the area have their own collection and disposal practices.
