2 THE NEW TANNER THURSDAY, OCTOBER 16; 2003 Quarry blast angers... continued from page 1 His son, Brett Carachi, who lives on 22 Side Road, blames the September 22 blast for damaging his foundation and he wants compensation and an apology. Brett Carachi said the blast was "very scary" and that he initially thought it was a pro- pane explosion or earthquake that shifted his bungalow one- half inch off its cinderblock foundation. The younger Carachi Dr. Tim doesn't think the blast results are suspect, but said they aren't an.accurate look at the impact on people living on the south west side of the quarry where more monitors should be located, now that quarry- ing is being carried out in that area, Dufferin Aggregate's prop- erty and resource manager Sarah Lowe, said the Golder and Associates report says while the experts, "don't doubt the sincerity of the con- cerns, our blast could not have ~ Peloso ROCKWOOD FAMILY CHIROPRACTIC Manual treatment for care and revention of nerve, musele, bone & joint pain.

Congratulations on your appearance in "Today's Bride" Magazine and on the been of sufficient magnitude to have caused the cracks in the mirror."

Results from 'a monitor on the Fourth Line on September 22 registered ground vibration levels of 2.5-millimetres/ sec- ond, well below the government guidelines of 12.5mm/s. Noise levels regis- tered at 122-decibels, below the 128-decibel limit. At the monitor on 22 Side Road, the blast vibration meas- ured 5.3mm/s, and the noise level was 114-decibels. Lowe said people heard and felt the blast that day more than normal because quarrying ac- tivities are moving closer to homes on the west side of the quarry. "They are still over 1.3-kilo- metres away from us, which is a fair distance," Lowe said, adding the "trouble" with blasts is that some days they aren't as evident as others, de- spite results from continuous FOOD DRIVE: The Thanksgiving food drive for the Acton Food Bank at St. Joseph's school was very successful.
