The Roll Call question was "Can you recall how you spent your last ten dollars?" Now we know why it is important to save receipts! We were given copies of improperly filled out cheques and we had to find the error(s) that were made. We learned the capabilities of Automated Teller Machines and how to open accounts on them. The third meeting was held Tuesday, June 2, 1998 at Bowmans' place. We had a guest speaker who is a financial financial advisor in a bank. She told us that in order to invest savings, you should first pay off any debts you owe to others. others. You should pay the debts with the highest interest rate first, (e.g. credit cards), not necessarily the largest debt. We learned when it comes time to invest, make sure the objectives of the investment meet your goals and if you have mutual funds that have dropped in value don't sell out and take a loss. We also learned that RRSP contribution contribution limits can be accumulated and carried over to next year indefinitely during low-income years until you have a high-income year when you can afford to contribute a lot to the RRSP and reduce your income tax. The next meeting has been re-scheduled and is now on June 23rd at Bowmans at 7:30 p.m. Ben Millson NOTICE OF ADDENDUM TO ENVIRONMENTAL STUDY REPORT HIGHWAY 401 IMPROVEMENTS WEST OF HIGHWAY 35/115 TO HIGHWAY 28 - GWP614-89-68 Background This addendum is being issued to the above mentioned Environmental Study Report to document changes to the Highway 401 - Ncwtonvillc Road Interchange ramps proposed by Armbro Construction Limited. MTO has conditionally awarded Armbro a Design Build Contract for Highway 401 Improvements from the CPR to the Durham Northumberland Boundary, (WP 270-96-00). The proposal would provide new Highway 401 Westbound to Northbound/Southbound (W-N/S) and new Highway 401 Eastbound-Northbound/Southbound (E-N/S) ramps, and closure of the existing loop ramps for these movements. As a result of these changes, the Highway 401 Bridge over Newtonville Road will require only rehabilitation, rather than widening as originally proposed. Summary of Design Revisions and Environmental Impacts The original approved design for the median barrier and highway widening would have required widening the Newtonville Road Bridge. In order to accommodate the construction staging of the structure the existing W-N/S and E- N/S ramps would have to be closed (one at a time) for various periods of time to maintain Highway 401 traffic. The proposed design revisions will provide new W-N/S and E- N/S ramps, which will separate from Highway 401 in advance of the bridge. Since the lanes for the ramps currently cross the bridge, the existing bridge deck area could be utilized for one additional Highway 401 lane in each direction, without the need for any widening. Construction of new ramps was selected as a better alternative because the new ramps could be built and made operational at the start of the project. Ramp traffic could then be maintained throughout construction without closure. The bridge would not require widening, and the work could be completed more cost effectively. With regard to environmental and other impacts: (i) There are no property acquisitions required. (ii) The new W-N/S Ramp would cross a vacant grassed field. Construction of the new E-N/S Ramp would require removal of a small corner of a large mixed woodlot which extends several kilometers to the north. None of this vegetation is considered significant. (iii) The new E-N/S ramp will require an extension of approximately 17 m. to the north end of an existing 1.22 x 1.22 m concrete culvert crossing Highway 401 approximately 270 m. east of Newtonville Road. (iv) The drainage outlet at the culvert crossing to be extended does not support any fisheries and there are no restrictions on in stream construction. No concerns were expressed by the review agencies or the public at this drainage crossing. (v) There would be no appreciable additional construction noise or highway noise. (vi) There would be no additional mitigative measures, and no change to monitoring requirements.
