This was also recommended by M.P.P. Russ Rowe who had pointedout that landowners could change their minds at the time Hydro made their offer which will stili be some months into the future. Hydro has also agreed to an application to the MUinistry of energy for a fee acquisition -which allows landowners wishing to seil their lands for the corridor to have the protection of the Expropriat- ion Act. Coming before the hearing are many simiilar points as outlined to the Soldant com- mission, the line going thr- ough a semi-mature stand of natural pine and future prop- osed development such as a Motel àt the Service Centre at Wajver-ly Road in Bowman- ville south of Highway 401. E.R. Lovekin representing Mr. A. Allen of Bowmanville concerning his land at, the Service Centre asked if the line could not be pushed further south into the St. backs. Everyone was bot and s-weaty. Wîth the aid of parent belpers we got meals started. Mrs. Gatcheli came along as we needed (o take a nurse. We wold like to thank Mr. Bunting for bis consent to use the area, the parents MIrs. Quantrili and Mrs. Gatcheli for their help and Mr. Baker and Mrs. Allun for their assistance.- Weil, after saying good-bye we started baek. We lef t at 2:30 and got (o the school at 3:30. A good time was enjoyed by ail. Karen ' Beaulren, Grade 6 On Monday, June 13 the grade six students of Orono Public School started on their way to the Outdoor Science Centre. We walked about 31 - miles to get there. You had to walk on dusty gravel roads then through #_ swamp. We carried about 5 - 8 pounds each on our backs. It was wortb il when we got there. When we, arrived we un- packed and set up camp. When we were finished that we went and mnade lunch. There were many activities to do. You got to choose 2 things to do out of orienteering, stream study, plant study, and insect study. Tbey were ail very interesting. On Mon- day night-Mr. Baker, the man in charge showed us how to play some Eskimo gamies and told us an Indiani legend. We stayed (iii Tuesday, then wve hiked home. t was very'% interest'ing there and we WoUld ail like to go again. Sheila Boughen. Mary,'s Cemient property in order that future plans of the mnotel would not be disrupted. Ontario Hydro presented arguments against shifting the line south as it would then pass through a big swamp that has been listed as an international wildlife pre- serve. Lt was also pointed out that the area could in the, future be used as a deep- water por't when St. Mary's complete their work in the future. St. Mary's' Cement has asked that the hydro 1 une as now drawn out be moved farther north along the high- way corridor. Norman Hei- ght, an appraiser hired by the Cement Company bas stated that the Company will loose $67 mnillioinr profits if the line necessitates the purchase-of -some 76 acres of the Cement Company land east of Waver- ly Road and south of Highway 401. Hydro contends the loss is much less than the above figure. Mr. N. Selby, a beef farmer in Newcastle Village has asked that more of the uine be routed on his property in Newcastle stating it would save hydro money, and pos- sibly save an apple .orchard as well as the park in the, South of the Village. Both the, orchard and the park will have its buildings removed under the present route of the hyvdro lunes. The hearing was adjourned on Friday due to present pressures on hydro and will b e reconvened in August.
