1 Page 7 - PLAI1NDEALER-HERALD, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 27.»lflfc5 Membership drive, auction will help 'feathered friend!' The 10th annual fund-raising dinner and auction of the McHenry County East Chapter of Ducks Unlimited, an international organization, will be held at the John Evans Inn in Crystal Lake on March 12. By Steve Metsch Plaindealer-Herald News Service Goods go to the highest bidder in an auction. But the biggest win­ ners won't even attend an upcom­ ing auction in Crystal Lake. Ducks -- that's right, those little fellas with the webbed feet -- and their fellow wildlife will come away with the biggest prize on Tuesday, March 12. That's when the McHenry Coun­ ty East Chapter of Ducks Unlimited, an international organization, will help our feathered friends.The group will host its 10th Annual Membership ^ Banquet at the John Evans Inn. ^Cocktails start at 6 p.m. and din­ ner at 7:30 p.m. The goal is simple -- help the world's wildlife. Money is raised largely through the auction. The money then is sent to the Ducks Unlimited Na­ tional Headquarters in Buffalo Grove. From there, it's on to Canada and several northern states to help preserve the nesting ground of wildlife. Since its beginning in 1937, Ducks Unlimited has constructed 2,401 wildlife habitat projects. These represent nearly two million water acres and more than 14,000 miles of shoreline. The group has raised more than $237 million, most of it at the grass roots level where it has a member­ ship in excess of 500,000. The group's goal is to put 80 cents of every $1 raised directly to work. Out of the remaining 20 cents comes funds for field operations, membership services, promotion and education. Only 4 percent is spent on administration. The ducks benefit since they have more places to live. And with more ducks flying around, the hunters also benefit. "Certainly, they do. However,, there was a time in the past when there wasn't a hunting season and the casualty rate of the ducks stayed the same," said Ron Goss, chairman of the McHenry County East Chapter. "The by-product is here, too. Of all these miles of shoreline that have been restored, there's a lot of room for deer, muskrat, skunks, you name it. The natural predators benefit as well as the ducks themselves," Goss added. County board okays pollution control law By Angela Burden Plalndealer Herald New* Service A new Regional Pollution Control Facility Siting or­ dinance was adopted by the McHenry County Board last week, and seven people were appointed to serve on a con­ tinuing Citizens Advisory Waste Study Committee. Those appointed include McHenry County Defenders Director Greg Lindsey and John Renskers from District 1; Tom Scolaro, Tim Adams and Kathy Schaid from District 2 and Tom Tierney and A1 Grider from District 3. The new pollution control facility ordinance replaces the ordinance adopted last year by the board. The new rules require a landfill applicant to pay a deposit fee of $25,000, plus a surety bond in the sum of $50,000. The fee is intended to defray the costs of processing the application, renting space for public hearings, fees for hearing officers and court reporters, transcription costs and other costs relevant to the consideration of a landfill ap­ plication. The recent hearings on the controversial application from McHenry County Landfill Inc., for the operation of a landfill on 113 acres north of Huntley, which is currently being con­ sidered by the county, have cost a considerable sum. The Regional Pollution Control Facility Committee conducted 12 days of hearings on the landfill application, spen­ ding about 83.5 hours at the task. The hearings were recorded on 3,700 pages of transcript by court reporters at a cost of $18,000. Rental of the building at the county fairgrounds for the hearing and 12 days of per diem pay for the seven committee members, plus the hearing officers fees, will also amount to a considerable sum. Meanwhile, the siting com­ mittee was scheduled to meet on the Huntley landfill Monday, "when a decision will be reached" on what the panel's recommendation to the full county board will be, according to committee chairman Tom Huemann. He said that recomhiendation will be sub­ mitted in writing to the full county board. . s, , t "It is anticipated that the question can be decided at the regular March 20 board meeting," Huemann said.

Board Chairman Ed Buss asks county residents, schools, businesses and industry to make an extra effort to review all plans and procedures and to conduct tornado drills. - Heard from the board's Public Safety Committee chairman Dean Cunat, who indicated the concern the committee had for drunk driving problems. The possibility of outlawing all "happy hours" in McHenry County was discussed by the committee members, who felt the subject should be pursued. Cunat said that two drinks for the price of one during happy hours in county taverns and restaurants encourages ex­ cessive drinking. He said plans were being made to contact restaurant and tavern owners' associations and other units of government to present a unified front for halting happy hours in the campaign against drunk driving.

"This is our 10th anniversary for the local chapter and the 10th anniversary for the Illinois Duck Stamp, so we are kind of highlighting those two aspects at this particular event," Goss said. Money will be raised through selling tickets for the dinner. Con­ tributions of goods from area mer­ chants give the annual bash a local flavor. Tickets are $40 each, which in­ clude^ dinner and an annual membership to Ducks Unlimited and its magazine. At least 40 items will be in this year's auction, and everyone is eligible to bid.Goss stressed that big spenders and duck hunters aren't the only people welcome at the annual event. "The surprising thing is, the evening itself is supported by the entire community more than just duck hunters. I'd guess about 30 or 40 percent of those here last year actually shot a duck," Goss said. "We fully expect to be the No. 1 chapter in the state out of 130-plus chapters." For that, the ducks of the world can be thankful -- even if they skip the auction. THE WINTER SALE CONTINUES! SAVE UP TO 75% STORE FOR MEN 1114 N Cteen $»..
