own risk The fecal bacteria count on the side of Fairy Lake behind the wading pool where the new beach is being created has exceeded govern ment guidelines and and swim at your own risk signs went up Mpn day said Hills Recreation Director Tom Shepard The signs wen posted at the re- of the Regional Department of Mr thinks the high fecal count on thai side of the lake Is being created partially by sand which Is being added to make the beach The sand is stirring up sediments which normally lay on the bottom of the lake he said The other side of the lake near the old beach Is so clean it is virtually drinking water said Mr Shepard The town will be adding more sand to the new beach so sediment may not settle until the work there is done he said Another major factor contributing to the high fecal count on that side of the lake Is the water fowl that tends to congregate there Ducks and swans are being fed by the public on that side of the lake so almost all of them swim on that side said Mr Shepard Once the new beach Is finished Mr Is hoping that swim mers and boaters will create enough activity to effectively chase some of the water fowl away from that spot Another contributing factor to the high fecal count in the new beach Is relatively still water flow The other side is near the dam so water flows quicker on that side said Mr Shepard The health unit will monitor the lake weekly to determine whether swimmers can safely go into the water on the new beach side said Mr Shepard Meanwhile John Joyner of the University of Guelph warned coun cillors about the possibility of almost irreparable damage to Fairy Lake through a process called lent Ion Eutriiphi cation is the process of sedimentation nutrient enrichment and high organic productivity that can lead to the loss of the water body Guelph University protestor Don Stevens said in a study conducted by students on the lake that he was very surprised at the lack of fun damental information on the lake Mr said Is a natural process In lakes but the balance In Fairy Lake could be upset easily Normally in Jakes there is a layer of water In the bottom which has no oxygen and that layer can dissolve organisms like algae said Mr But Fairy Lake Is very shallow and It does not have a layer of water wltltOut oxygen That means small organisms cannot be dissolved They simply die and pile up on the bottom of the lake he said But that process should take dreds of years to make a notlcable difference In the water body he add ed A eutrophlc lake Is actually a stable lake and the high oxygen con tent Is better for the fish said Mr Joyner He also said there is no evidence of any damage by acid rain to Fairy Lake Mr Joyner cautioned the town to closely monitor any new developments around Fairy Lake Runoff from more developments can highly enrich the nutrients In the lake and speed up the process he said That essentially Is what la happen ing to Heart Lake in Brampton be The study did net test for different In Fairy Lake and Mr urged council to work with University in future years to conduct more studies on the lake The first llmnologlcal survey just touched the surface he said Reactions mixed on rail line purchase for recreational trail Ready to square off with Tories Klein earns Grit nomination Residents are taking up sides in the proposal which calls for the town to purchase miles of abandoned railway line Hills is considering buying the line from Canadian National Railway for in order to turn it Into a hiking and horseback riding trail The tine formerly known as the Cheltenham Line extends from Road to he Line the border between Halton Hills and Brampton Council was told last week they had to make a decision by June 15 but the town deferred a decision on the Issue The town has now received a 60day extension on the option to buy the land Last week several residents ap pealed to the town to buy the land and set it up as a trail but others who live near to the property are vehemently opposed to a riding trail there They say vandals and motor vehicles such as all terrain vehicles snow mobiles and mini bikes are causing havoc with the Dave Desmond a resident next to the property for the lost years told council June 13 that the ratio of motor vehicles to hikers on the mile stretch is 10 to one In the past few years Mr Des mond said vandals have cut fences left gates open In fields for live stock to escape and littered the area with garbage and beer bottles The property Is perfect for motorized vehicles said Mr And posting signs doesn deter the motorists Residents have placed a boulder In the way to prevent en trance of vehicles in to the field but that was pulled out of the way A chain placed there was and now there is a cement wall blocking their Kith so the vehicles go across Mr property to get here He disputed he need for a walking park since the Bruce Trail is only miles away He has spotted only one horse using the land This place has been open to anybody and everybody for 35 years Why hasn tit been used he asked It unlikely hikers and horseback riders would use the trail In the future he said Problems with purchasing the land for public use include liability policing upkeep and maintenance weed control and fencing said Mr Desmond He asked councillors to put the land back Into private hands Another longtime resident Paul Brown echoed Mr Desmond sen llments It will be m possible to police as public land he said At night when the other elements move in there I defy any of you to walk down that track because you re taking your life In hands he said Meanwhile own Deputy Clerk Delmor French told councillors the town Is getting tetters from residents throughout Hills In favor of purchasing the land By MIKE TURNER Herald Editor Although the final vote tallies t released It was apparent Friday night that Pierre Klein was he strong favorite in he race for the Liberal nomination for the next federal election Mr Klein a 26yearold trustee with the Peel Board of Education earned the right to carry the Peel banner for the Liberals after eating Milton following the nomination meeting Friday which concluded with Mr Klein being named the nominee lust before 11 the resident said he was ecstatic There was a lot of hard work and energy that went Into this he said Its not something you do half Reaction to the candidates open in speeches were quite varied The crowd which Included voting riding association members sat quietly during Mrs Curries speech But when Mr Klein took the podium and a short time into his oration proclaimed I a proud Canadian he was greeted by cheers hardy applause At times his speech took on the appearance of a revival meeting with sporadic applause throughout Mr Klein spoke against a dependency on the US which he feels will happen with Free Trade Eighty per cent of trade Is free he told the gathering As Canadians we have to give up our sovereignty to attain It His eagerness was again reward by a burst of applause when he job of fighting the Tories Following the proceedings Mrs Currle said she was not bitter over the toss to Mr Klein But she stated she considering a request for an arbitration the Libera Party of Canada in Ontario due to suspicions over the eligibility of some voters at the meeting Mrs Currie had hours from the time of discovering any im proprieties in the proceedings to forward her claim which If upheld could result In the meeting being nullified Chief Returning Officer Nick Mas- dan ton said late Tuesday after noon that no such arbitration had been filed for and the matter was considered closed Earlier Mrs Currie had filed for arbitration two days before the nomination but her request was re jected The claim pinpointed Infractions of eligibility said Mr Mawiantonlo and very few were upheld But even If all the ones centred out by Mrs were upheld he stated it would not have made any difference In the end result Such challenges are quite com Mr Masclantonio said In fact Mr Klein challenged cases from the side Halton Peel riding president Joe Hewitt feels Mr Klein was a good choice by the association I think he obviously be a tenacious worker Mr Hewitt said He has lots of good qualities Mr Hewitt expects the clashes with the Tory candidate In the debating forum to be the focal point of the upcoming campaign But he also feels most people will be non chalant about the election until Its called anyway Mr Klein t feel his relative ly young age will be a factor in his fortunes In politics I proven myself In business and public office There ore many other people who were young when they entered the House he said referring specifically to the likes of Perrfn and Sean Conway who began their political lies in their early twenties I m not setting any prece dent Mr Klein is preparing himself to take on the Tory standard bearer but it remains to be seen who that will be Four candidates are vying for the nomination when
