More action from the Pines club by (left to right) Colleen Senior Public School drama Moffat, Martha Stubingtpn, Suggests retention of second marsh A federal environment report report of Oshawa's 220-acre Second Marsh suggests that the harbor commission halt engineering studies related to port expansion and re-open the marsh which was sealed last year by commission edict. The report, prepared by Canadian Wildlife Service, an agency of the environment department, recommends that no "engineering feasibility feasibility studies" Or construction be conducted by the commission commission without the prior knowledge knowledge and consent of the appropriate federal, provincial provincial and municipal agencies. At the time wildlife biologist biologist B.C, Johnson Was studying studying the marsh and preparing his report, soil and bedrock studies were being conducted by the St. Lawrence Seaway authority at the request of the commission. POTENTIAL DAMAGE? I Such studies, Mr. Johnson said, could result in more damage to the already threatened threatened marsh and disrupt the natural habits of wildlife in the area. The environment report, prepared initially as an internal document last December, December, has just been released by Environment Minister Jean Marchand but commission commission chairman W.A.D. Selby refuses to release any results of the seaway authority's soil testing-program. Considering factors involved involved in the co-existence of the marsh with harbor expansion and surrounding industrial development, Mr. Johnson assumes the Second Marsh would be better off if the commission surrendered its title to the property. Assuming that, the biologist recommends that all land bordering on the east and west boundary of the marsh below the 225-foot contour be excluded from any future development. TREE PLANTING Fast-growing 'hardwood trees and shrubs should, be planted between the marsh and the industrial zone around it "to form an esthetic screen and noise barrier," Mr. Johnson suggests, and no outfalls from any industrial plant should be directed into the marsh watershed. The author of the 59 r page report recommends that the marsh be re-opened to wildlife wildlife enthusiasts and that the waterfowl banding program, terminated when the harbor commission took title of the property, be reactivated. . The marsh has provided bird watchers with recreational recreational opportunity equalled in few areas of the continent, Mr. Johnson remarked. It is also recognized as an excellent waterfowl banding Bev Peake, Joann Taylor and Jennifer Dèvos. area and has ranked in the top five banding stations in the Atlantic fly way during the past 10 years. • , "There are no viable alternate alternate banding sites in Ontario to replace Second Marsh," Mr. Johnson comments. "The birds will not simply go elsewhere such as Lake Scugog en masse. They are creatures of tradition attuned to the attractive characteristics characteristics of Second Marsh". If the upland around the marsh is zoned recreational and the property transferred back to the city, Mr. Johnson recommends it be acquired .by the province along with the private holdings on the east side* of the ■ marsh and incorporated into Darlington Provincial Park as a natural ared for* "passive" use. .
