pump the area Moat are worried about the possibility of water contamination from surface runoff and Ihe possibility of leaking sanitary sewers Residents also want a buffer zone around the well which Is owned by the Region of Hal ton In a recorded vote only Coun Joe Hewitt opposed the hydrology study Coun Hewitt said town and staff have given verbal assurances there will be no effect on the water Quality and quantity around the well This whole situation is a political decision he told councillors Mon- study could well cost a lot more than because establishing the terms of reference could take some time he said I think all the concerns have been addressed to the public and public arent happy They want something from an expert For what reason Hewitt called the decision irresponsible Tuesday rooming Even the hydrology study shows its safe the sheer slxe of the underground aquifer which stret ches from the fairgrounds to said Coun Hewitt means that contamination could come from anywhere He said the study is being conducted to appease a few neighbors I personally hink thats ir responsible The pump is a regional respon sibility Hewitt Im totally concerned about the environment out I hate
