i I Tin- Canadian Statesman. Howmanville. January II, 1989 13 Waverley Public School News In The Hands of Mother Nature by Stephen Clancy. On Wednesday, January 4th, bus no. 28 rolled out of Wavcrley's main parking lot carrying Mrs. Trbovich's grade 5 class to the Outdoor Education Centre. The first thing the class did was to go on a nike to see what nature had in store for them this year. After the hike they fed the birds. Next came snack E " eriod, which was followed y an exciting scavenger hunt which lasted until lunch time. The watching birds was fun because Biuejays, Woodpeckers and Cardinals came into vision. And did you think the class was going going to get away scot-free? No Sir! They had to do a quiz about some of the things they had learned today. At the end of the visit the class blindly went through the mind baffling maze. A special special thanks to Tania Bartlett who gave me this information. information. Everybody including Mrs. Trbovich's class just loves 'Outdooring' it at the Outdoor Education Centre.

Enclosed Enclosed is a complimentary copy of our recent publication publication The Nuclear Power Booklet - The Case for a Nuclear Nuclear Free Ontario. I hope you will find this publication informative. It outlines why we believe nuclear generated generated electricity is an undesirable undesirable option. The book also offers offers a practical and attractive electrical future based on a range of demand management alternatives. This is the time of year to be thinking about new year's resolutions. As you know, an important decision about future future electricity generation is ^ 1» be made next year. government decides to build another nuclear generating generating station, it will be facing one of the most bitter political political battles of its history. Your constituents would like to know whether you favour further expansion of nuclear power in Ontario. Please let me know your position on this vital matter. I look forward forward to hearing from you in the new year. Yours for a sustainable future, Irene Kock Executive Director. P.S.

Irene Kock Executive Director Nuclear Awareness Project Project Box 23312, Oshawa, Ontario Ontario LUI 7V4. Dear Ms. Kock: Thank you for your letter of December 15, 1988 and The Nuclear Power Booklet, and your inquiry of me about my position on Nuclear Nuclear Power. As you are aware I have had the opportunity of being on all the various Select Select Committees of Energy since my election in 1977 to date. The present committee is examining the demand/ supply option of Ontario Hydro Hydro and the report will be out shortly. In general terms, Ontario requires approximately 20,000 megawatts daily, and as evidenced last summer, and this winter, that capacity has been reached. With that in mind the committee is struggling with the anticipated anticipated growth somewhere between 23,000 and 30,000 megawatts by the turn of the century. There is of course a reserve but as you can ap preciate, the citizens of Ontario Ontario expect and are entitled to a consistent supply of electricity electricity and that reserve is required required for any deficiencies in tne system as shutdowns of various electrical producing units occur. Generally, one third of Ontario electricity is produced produced by Hydro, one third by coal, oil and gas and one third by nuclear. The committee committee has found that both Hydro and the Ministries of Energy and Environment are concerned about thermal production of electricity because because of the creation of acid rain. This phenomenon is also followed by the greenhouse greenhouse effect and the committee committee has learned that there is a strong possibility of a reduction reduction of water levels and as a result, the reduction of electricity electricity produced by the hydro-electric hydro-electric system. This then points to either- purchasing of electricity From outside Ontario whicn has yet to be fully examined, but upon first blush it would appear that neither Quebec, Manitoba or the northern U.S.A. are in a position to sell us vast amounts of electricity. electricity. The final aspect of course is the possibility of conservation conservation methods but even that would not compensate for the large electrical demand that is anticipated. As a result the nuclear option option would appear to be tne only present alternative to ensure that Ontario will have an adequate supply of electricity and failing some unforeseen technological advancement, advancement, I am supportive of the world's safest nuclear system expanding to ensure continuity for an adequate supply of electricity in Ontario. Ontario. Yours sincerely, Sam L. Cureatz.
