PAY PROMPTLY TO AVOID PENALTY R.C. Bryden Tax Collector Date,of Publication: September 24,1986 P.O. No. A 1573 0 The Hope'Township organization organization opposing the placing of low level waste in Wesleyville, Responsible Responsible Citizens for Nuclear Waste Disposal, met recently with Charles Caccia, federal Liberal environmental environmental critic. The group were invited by Caccia to express their concerns to him about nuclear waste disposal in the area. Robert Sculthorpe, spokesman fpr the Hope Township group said Tyrone site chosen by Eldorado (Continued from page 1) elsewhere, whether in Newcastle or Hope Township. Moffet said the Starkville site had been a disappointment following examination of the test drilling samples. He said the glacial tile had lacked depth and there was found to bç extensive deposits of waterbearing waterbearing sands and gravels quite close tb the surface. He said the site could not provide the high degree of containment required for the Wastes in an engineered, burial disposal facility. Moffet said in contrast the Tyrone site was very very good containing containing a thick glacial till averaging 80 feet in depth, twice the depth of an engineered burial trench. He said the till had a relatively high clay content and was underlined in part ,by a 16 foot band of dense impermeable impermeable clay. He said thf test holes at the Tyrone site wère all south of the hydro line, farthest away from Tyrone and it would be the intent to locate such a system of. disposal in the southern area. The project manager then spoke of limestone caverns stating that all properties in Newcastle and Hope sat on top of a vast expanse of limestone bedrock. He said Tyrone the limestone is close enough to the surface to permit the construction of caverns but sufficiently deep to place the waste below any source of drinking Water.

"It's more than a regional issue", he said. ing referred to the Environmental Assessment Review Panel. He said they had been preoccupied preoccupied with geology and safety but were aware of other concerns of the Community and rural values. "He said the nearest populated area to the Tyrone site was the hamlet of Tyrone, 2 kilometers away.. He said it had a reported population of 169 people. He said' the Durham Region Official Plan acknowledges that Tyrone is not a major population centre afid that the plan prohibits growth in Tyrone in the future. He said the Regional plan confines growth to infilling. He said the official plan has been approved by the Region, the Town, the Ministry of Housing and the Ontario Municipal Board. Moffet then pointed out that the proposed Highway 407 which Wquld pass south of Tyrone.and ' north of the Eldorado site would uSe more agricultural land than would"the proposed waste site. He said further the highway would act as an additional bearer between the hamlet and the site. Moffet. was asked why the Municipalities had not been brought into discussion over the proposed sites to which he answered that djscussion had been held over the'past five years until such time as the municipalities broke off discus- i sion with the company.. He further stated that the company is eager to resume consultation with municipal councils and with communities and* would hope such would resume in the near future.
