He says they could have decided far sooner in the process that the land in Scugog was not ideal for the sites, but the IWA refused to listen. "Ifthey had just come out and looked, but they didn't come," he said. Mayor Hall has been critical of the process since it began maintaining that it disrupted too many families, putting their lives in limbo. "I feel good for Scugog and the people of Scugog," he said.

Mr. Lishman and his group have been fighting dumps in the Blackstock area for a number of years. "I guess we're going to cele- brate that we've been given a re- prieve," he told the Star shortly after learning the news. But despite the reprieve, Mr. Lishman says the battle is not over, nor is the garbage crisis. He says the group will continue on with its mandate of recycling and eliminating waste going to garbage dumps. "Zero Garbage will not cease to exist. We will keep pushing to stop landfills," he said. Ward 1 Councillor Ken Car- ruthers, an Ex-Officio member of Preserve the Environment of Scugog Township (PEST) said Friday's announcement signi- fied somewhat of a victory for all those involved in Scugog's fight and was the result of hard work putinto the cause. "One of the nice things is that the people worked hard," he said. "It bears great fruit." Councillor Carruthers said he was not surprised that the sites were wiped off the board, due to their high agricultural value. He said the group's sub- missions to the IWA had always stressed this factor. "I think we're somewhat justified in our own assessment." SE Regional Chairman Gary Herrema said it was "a better announcement than expected." Although he said he was "afraid Scugog spared dump one would be in Scugog" he says he is not surprised "Scugog got kicked out" when one consid- ered the agricultural value of the lands. "It's good news that we're not displacing any farmers," he said. Durham East MPP Gord Mills, whose NDP government is conducting the search, called the announcement "a good Christmas present" for Scugog, adding that it was "good news for Scugog." "I think the process recog- nized that agriculture was im- portant," he said. He also hailed the selection process, which has been criti- cized since it began. "The process was good and people should be relieved as I am," he said. "It lets people know that there was a process and it works." He also expressed his apolo- gies to the area residents whose lives were disrupted by the pro- cess. "I'm very apologetic about up- setting the people. I felt for them," be said. "I'm glad it's over." Although it's over for the peo- ple in Scugog, the search pro- cess is not over. The IWA must still arrive at a final site. Mr. Mills says the site should be an- nounced sometime next year.
