weighting Continued from 1 to corridor would avoid the area The seventh point from the brief suggests a significant part of the route would be using an existing corridor from to Klelnburg which Is 610 feci wide wllh a capacity Tor three double line towers and a capacity of six lines The corridor currently has two lines They quote a report from Dr that Hydro testimony left me the they had not exhaustively studied the possibility of increasing the utilization of existing rights of way In order to minimize the need for new land acquisition The brief acknowledged there were disadvantages because of the larger diameter of the grid and mileage penalties might result with a ad miles of lines required but suggests the penalty would overcome by lines close to future generating sites Mr Schneider said requests to Hydro to further outline the disadvantages of the Bruce to line has only resulted In a reply that the corridor could not bo considered since It was being saved for a future generating station north of The brief takes issues with Hydro priorities suggesting they would rather cross prime agricultural land with the towers than parallel a and questions the visual Impact along route It notes this weighting by Hydro con public opinion as expressed by the Bill report where it was stated that percent of the respondents to questionnaires preferred to follow highways and existing corridors Mr Schneider said throughout discussions about the line that Hydro has expressed an urgency on power requirements for domestic use but thinks this conflicts with press reports that Hydro Is negotiating with the united States for he export of excess power He also took Issue with Hydros intent to deal seriously with public participation since they had lost a map with public input from which was only recovered action from councillor Betty Lou Clark Hydro statements at an East meeting which Indicated all township planning boards had been contacted were untrue he noted because neither Erin or had been contacted Further promised meetings for further study of the Bruce to Essa route have not yet materialized Mr Schneider noted- He noted Hydro indicated to the group and the Ontario Federation of agriculture that the Bruce generating capacity would be GOO but a week later it was announced it would be going to The brief contended hydro has confused and the public regarding the alter nate by hiding under be security blank was P If Hydro would clarify an UMw points to the of the public refwdtn their route selection much time wasted effort could be saved and their public participation plans could be given credibility the briif states The brief asked for further action from requesting a group be made of the security of the route what priority is being given lo the corridor challenges the credibility or the conclusions of the brief prestnled by the Work Group and expressed doubts about the objectivity of the Hydro study in the Georgetown Bradley study area noting other areas had independent consultants while Wellington and Grey arc left to defend themselves I am sure Ihe reason is not because we are farm pcnplc the brief observes sardonically The brief asked that no additional hearings on the Bradley Georgetown line be held until it has been clearly established whether is a possible alternative and whether Bruce to link tould contribute security for the R alternative Music booth testing of public opinion He asked silent majority had been heard from Mr replied he felt till had done responsible Job also look issue with being included In the list of hackers for a single corridor claiming thcirhad never been any Indication from them to support it Mr Schneider insisted there hod been and both parties read iheir in of ihe Hydro statement without coming lo agreement That segment of the hearing ended Mr Schneider was asked what qualifications and experience he had to speak as an ex perl on the transmission of power Mr Schneider replied he did not think this should enter Ihe picture because they wonted Hydro to move transmission lines he had not their ex but noted he had his and post graduate studies as well as being a businessman connected with power problems an appendix listing the depth of support for a single corridor for the alter native and for study of ft plus the Bruce to alternative Appendix purported to show that or modified system left miles of unprotected corridor while the configuration had only miles protected The solicitor for Ontario Hydro cross examined Mr Schneider after the presentation noting he had said Ontario
