Queen's Park Report Full house again a? DOUG MOFFATT, MI.P.P. DURHAM EAST What is going on at the Darlington Genèerating Sta- tion? Over the past several months a number of local citizens, elected represent- atives, and myseif have raised questions aobut the future of the Darlingtop Generating Station. 1 arn now led to believe that the Dariington Station is going to go ahead with no change for the public to have a say as to its environmental controls, as to the use of the millions of galions of warm water pro- duced, traffic flows, product- ion of secondary industry, jobs in the area and so on. 1 requested some months ago to be named to the Hydro liaison committee by the Town of Newcastle and its new council and the council in its wisdom decided that only elected reperesentatives in the town would be part of it. That is perfectiy within their righ t to do so. Since that time 1 have received 'no minutes, no statements, no copies of material, or any information about the Darlington Gener- atinig Station. 1 ann beginning to wonder wvhat is going on. It seems to me that somne of the points which have been raised by myself and others have not been adequately answered and need to be answered before any final decision is made. While 1 arn aware that the Town of Newcastle is fully able to negotiate for itself and with ils consultants the terras of any agreement- Don't Leave It to Chance Be sure yNour homne is (ru]y protected by a good poicy Calli us nowý Milison In-surance Office: Cre fCuc and Cohledick Street St. Saviourý,, ANGLICAN Itegular Sunday Worship Service - 10: 00 a.m. Rev.

Dial-A-Thought 983-9151 entered into with Hydro 1 tbink the general public hias a right and a necessity to know exactly what is going on. 1I made the comment a wbite ago in this coiumn and received a response from the Chairman of Ontario Hydro that one of the activities that should be considered is that land around the genierating station should be used as a cooling area for the warmn water and this warmed area would be a suitable site for greenhouses or somne kind of fruit production on a year round basis. I received a long answer back saying that this was not entirely feasible but it wouid be looked at. 1 think we should have a littie bit more than just a look.. If seems f0 mie that even if we have to take somne of the energy produced at the nuclear station and raise the level of wafer in the. winter fime where if will keep the temperature, in an eight or nine hundredi acre green- bouse above freezing so that citrus fruits or other non-Ont- ario wi,,nter- products could be raised for export. We wouid be gaining a great number of things by this. This kind of industry is a job intensive indusfry and I can easily see em-ploymenf for five or six hundred people. This is not something that can be laugh- ed off. t sbould be seriously considered and if if requires the expenditure of addifîonal money by Ontario Hydýro the benefits to the immrediate area wili be significant and substantial. The questioni of the use of the energy or the heat from the watercould possihly be answered by the creation of an industrial complex very close to the nuclear station with free warm air produced by warm water heing an incentive to; industry. This has nof been reacfed to by Ontario Hydro and 1 fhink, if should be. I just question whether we are stumbling down the path of a nulear generating station and not having followed the possible use of the land explored to the best advantage. t also seems to me that INewtonville Works Newtonvilîle, Ont., 786-2937786-2941 24 Hr.

Thle crowd was provided with somne top notch enterfainment by he various artists that appeared on stage. Bill Lynde on fiddle played some real old country lovin' tunes that made the crowd tap their feet and clap their hands in time f0 the music. Gwen Reeson from Rose- neafb did an excellent job on ber songs, including one Irish tune tbat got the audience singing along with hier. Lori Allen from Cavan received a large round of applause wben she took ber turn on the programr. Lori was chosen f0 sing the song for the "Quiet Time" of the show "One Day at a Time", an excellent job well'done. Tom Mlark and Cathy Jean of the Log Cabini Boys did some real fancy harmonizing on their songs. A good Job well donc. Ten yVear old Billy Lintner of Oshawa also appeared on stage to do bis part of the show. M.C. Sterling Mather as usuial did a very good Job on one of his recifations and also handled the show very well. The bouse Band of Fay Adamns and "The Country Hits" along wifh Herb Was- son provided some good entertainm-ent as weil as the back-up music for the per- formers. The next and final jam- boree of the season will be April 3 at 2:00 p.m. sharp. t will be a special last of the season shiow with a uine up of 22 fiddles, guifars, banjos and comedy. If last years show is any indication of this years "spec- jal lasf of the season" show you'd better come early if you wanf a seat. t wiil be a show since we have an environ- mental assessmenf review act that this major project, and if is major, bofh in termis of the local area and the1 province asa whole then if nof bc exempt from the hearings. We should have a full enviroamerifal assessmenf review and it should be looked at u~nder ail terms of the acf. I don't see any delay which mighf be prompfed as being a cause for saying we can't afford the time. The Wesley- ville Generafing Station and understand, is going f0 pro- ceed this summer. t is a coal-fired station and surely the amount of electrical energy produced there will make up for any slighf lag there might be in the product- ion of Darlington because of the compliance with ail of the terms of the envrnmental assessment revîew acf. I look forward to responses from Ontario Hydro, and elected representatives of the region in order that we al make sure thaf the people in the Region of Durham are best served by the hydro development. youwon't want f0 miss.
