Mayor Newman revealed the executive committee had accepted a study operations committee rec- ommendation that the technîcal co-ordinating 'committee be abol- ished. "We're tidying up the organiz- ational structure and streamlining it," said Mayor Newman who ad- ded that the techaical co-ordinat- ing committee had been overlap- ping the study operations com- mnittee. Both Mayor Newman and' May- or Hayward Murdoch of Oshawa are to be dropped from the study operations committee - making it purely a staff organization. The brief ralis for the govern- ment to be responsible for inter- im financing of the study. The province would then allocate par- ticipants on the basis of $1 per capita towards the total study cost.

The brief describes the study as "a unique opportunity for the total planning of a region."

"Centralizing and disposing ai the refuse in an approved manner rather than through many small- ol, poorly« located sites, where supervision and control cannot be economically practiced should be the goal," she said., The report also, says that mucli of our waste can be repro- cessed, reducing the volume of material that must be buried or burned.
