planning and development inves tigating the possibilities of estab lishing a few dam sites falling wells and dwindling springs and streams is getting to be an old story in hnlton it is the opinion of many loaders in hnlton that from a long time viewpoint the sol ution is tho reforesting of areas where tho headwaters of our streams arise the building up of the organic mntter content of our soils to prevent runoff and in crenso the water holding capacity of our soils and proper land utlll zation however the immediate solution would appear to be the conserving of our present water supply it is

below this nren and it is the hope and opinion of the halton conser- 1 vation committee that a pond es tablished above the springs on the escarpment will strengthen and in- 1 crease the fiow of uater
