The Oakville Beaver, Wednesday A ugust 20, 2003 - A7 Businesses and services take energy conservation measures (Continued from page A1) ating rooms continued to operate on emergency power. Lighting, however, was greatly reduced and although there was air ventilation, there was no air condition ing. The hospital has two diesel gener ators, and a tank that is able to hold 12,000 gallons of diesel fuel - enough to remain in operation for several days. Only emergency and urgent surger ies w ere carried out Friday, said Carlton, who explained on Monday that all staff was in and working, all clinics were up and running and elec tive surgeries were being conducted. On Monday, senior administration circulated a memo to all employees explaining a number of conservation measures that have gone into effect. Air conditioning has been set at 25.5°C while Environmental Services staff are finding ways to reduce lighting in cor ridors, public areas and the hospitals' exteriors - without compromising safe ty, said Carlton. Equipment not in use will also be turned off. Oakville Hydro's Bystrin confirmed that steps have been taken to ensure that critical "feeder" circuits - such as those supplying the hospital, water/sewage plants and Petro Canada - have been clearly identified and will be excluded from possible rolling blackouts implemented by Hydro One in the event demand outstrips supply. On Monday, Halton C atholic D istrict School Board Education Director Lou Piovesan said ail facili ties were operating "well within the spirit" of Premier Ernie Eves' appeal to limit power usage. "There is no air conditioning in the entire system," he said, adding that lighting was reduced at the central board office and all schools. "We are supporting the governm ent's request to limit the use o f electricity." Piovesan said the Board, which was closed on Friday, has cut back on staff Local grocery stores were slowly returning to normal after the stock of a wide range of food items wa depleted as consumers replenished their own spoiled essentials and suppliers returned to average production levels. hours and as o f Monday employees were working f^ve hours a day. from 7:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Piovesan does not expect the black out to have any residual effects on the system when classes resume Sept. 2. At the Halton D istrict School Board, all non-essential staff stayed home and some conservation methods were implemented within the five mil lion square feet of space within the system. Air conditioning at the board office and schools was not eliminated, how ever. Instead, explained Su perintendent of Facility Services Gerry Cullen, thermostats were set higher than is customary thanks to centralized computer control. Lights, however, are up to each school, but Cullen added that these have been manually reduced. Hours at the board office were also shortened. "We're ready to receive the kids on the first day of school," said Cullen. At Ford of Canada, the day shift at the Oakville Assembly Plant and the Central Office building stayed home on Monday. On Tuesday, the headquar ters re-opened with a shortened work day, although everything was being done to save power. There was no air conditioning, emergency lighting was implemented, fewer elevators were in use and cut backs were made in the cafeteria. On Tuesday, the O akville Assembling Plant remained on reduced production while the single shift at the O ntario Truck Plant carried on as always. Local grocery stores were slowly returning to normal after the stock o f a wide range o f food items was depleted as consumers replenished their own spoiled essentials and suppliers returned to average production levels. A&P Canada, for exam ple, was "fully functional." said C om m un ications Manager Tammy Smitham. Customers might not be able to find their favourite brand of yogurt, for instance, but there is yogurt. At the Dominion store at 1011 Upper Middle Rd., there was not the usual selection o f eggs, said Smitham. but eggs are available. "W e're working to fill product gaps but there is a good assortment." she said, adding that stores had to ensure all food safety protocols - such as functioning freezers - were in place before deliveries were accepted.
