attempting to predict the cost of the hearings based on con sultants fees Instead they are budgeting based on the average cost of each sitting day so for said Chief Administrative Officer John Fleming The bearing board sits four days a week The hearings which began lost May and were scheduled to be finish ed by the end of 1987 are now ex to finish in the middle of September said Mr Fleming Previous estimates had the hear The town is going to spend 3000 to study the technical reports submit ted by the proponents of the Acton quarry dump Several months ago Reclamation Systems Inc gave Mayor Rubs Miller a mound of technical reports on studies conducted at the United Aggregates quarry The town- is now hiring a consul tant to study the reports But that could be just the tip of the Iceberg At Thursday s POWER meeting In Milton Councillor Bill Johnson said Milton town council gave its residents group to Kelp fight a proposed dump there He wanted to know If Halton Hills was prepared to back up POWER If can see ith the dollar Miller said Tuesday spent budget thus the need for the increase Support required from the Regions planning design biophysical and economic experts exceeded budget

Group and the Ministry of the En vironment will follow In June with the dollars to fight it rllller said Tuesday The technical study is just fir PR the first Step in fighting the be tt8 said The town can either give money to POWER outright or support It with studies such as this he said We have to take a very ag gressive role In this said Mayor Miller But the next steps In the fight are unclear so there is no use budgeting money for it now he said Ensuing technical reports may prove the quarry Is unsuitable for a dump he said But it could be very expensive Water rights forfeited Halton no longer has any water rights to the South Springs wells in Acton The Region executed a quit claim to the water rights at the Planning and Public Works Commit tee meeting last week That means has cleared up what lawyer Ken Anderson called a paper trail leading back to the Region should anyone instigate a law suit stemming from the dilapidated condition of the wells Halton no longer has any
