The contract has been given to D & F Snow Removal with a bid price of $1,522.25 (plus GST) for each call out during the winters of 1994/ 95,1995/96 and 1996/97. The price per call out in the second second and third years will be adjusted annually. The contract covers snow clearing clearing and winter maintenance of sidewalks, sidewalks, and parking lots within the municipality. Also included, is the senior citizens and physically dis abled sidewalk snow clearing, sand/ salting and driveway windrow removal. removal. The municipality clears snow from sidewalks and also plows windrows away from the end of driveways for seniors and disabled persons. Windrows arc the curls of snow placed at the foot of driveways by snowplows on the street. Two other companies applied for the contract, one from Bowmanville and the other from Peterborough. The report from Treasury Department Department states that for the 1993/94 winter winter season, the municipality paid out $110,000 for these services. A new farm plan, developed by Ontario's agriculture community, could help fanners stay green. Environmental Farm Plans (EFPs) arc documents prepared by farm families families to raise their environmental awareness about their own farms. As of January, fanners will be able to use EFPs to identify their own environmental environmental strengths, areas of concern and set goals for improvement. Farmers will be able to use plans to identity their own environmental strengths. The Ontario Farm Environmental Coalition, composed of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture, Christian Farmers Federation of Ontario, Agricultural Agricultural Groups Concerned about Resources and the Environment (AG- Carc) and the Ontario Farm Animal Council, consulted with 28 of the province's major farm organizations to come up with the idea. Last year, over 460 farmers in seven areas of Ontario participated in a pilot project to test the plans. Roger George, president of the Ontario Federation Federation of Agriculture, says that so far, more than 50 per cent have submitted submitted EFP Action Plans for peer review. review. EFPs consider all owned and leased farm property. Farmers will complete only those of 23 EFP worksheets worksheets that apply to their farms. Jeff Wilson, chairman of AGCare, says that farmers who participated in the EFP pilot showed strong environmental environmental awareness, scoring high on their pesticide storage, handling and transportation practices. "This shows us that when sound information, approved services or accepted accepted regulations exist, farmers have environmental concerns well in hand." Participants in the pilot project also identified wells and supplies, as well as the storage of petroleum products, as areas about which they required further information, explains John Markus, president of the Christian Christian Farmers Federation of Ontario. Gordon Coukcll, chairman of the Ontario Farm Animal Council, explains explains that by completing an EFP, Ontario farm families will also be able to realize the economic benefits that could result from changes to their management practices. "Once they identify areas of environmental concern unique to their farms," he says, "farmers will be able to identify simple solutions with the help of peers experienced with farm environmental environmental issues." Province-wide EFP workshops and peer review will be offered by local local Soil and Crop Improvement associations associations throughout 1994. Information anonymously gleaned from EFPs will also be used to help farm organizations highlight environmental environmental advances made by Ontario farmers and identify needs for further research. Participation in the EFP process may qualify farmers for future government government assistance programs of an environmental nature, and up to $500 for implcnting positive environmental environmental changes cited in their own ' EFP Action Plan. Last year, over 460 farmers participated in a pilot project to test plans. Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada Canada is providing $3.9 million over the next four years to deliver EFPs. An additional $5.7 million has been earmarked earmarked to deliver the $500-pcr- f armer incentive program. Federal funding comes from previously previously committed federal Green Plan dollars for agriculture.
