Regional Municipality of Durham NOTICE OF THIRD PUBLIC INFORMATION CENTRE Class Environmental Assessment for Provision of Additional Sewage Treatment Capacity in the Township of Scugog (Port Perry) DURHAM | REGION The Regional Municipality of Durham is undertaking a study for the provision of additional sewage treatment capacity in the Township of Scugog (Port Perry). The project is being conducted in accordance with the Class Environmental Assessment planning process approved by the Ministry of Environment and Energy. A number of technical alternatives were presented at the second Public Information Centre held on October 14,1993. These alternatives have been evaluated and an upgrade of the existing waste stabilization ponds to provide secondary treatment and seasonal storage, followed by tertiary treatment with effluent filtration has been selected as the preferred technical altemative. A Public Information Centre will be held to explain the rationale for the selection of the preferred technical altemative, to provide information on alternative site plans for the sewage treatment plant, and to receive public input and comments as follows: Thursday, July 14, 1994 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. The Corporation of the Township of Scugog Council Chambers 181 Perry Street, Port Perry The Durham Regional Police Major Fraud Unit is once again warning the public to be on the lookout for counterfeit bank notes. A large number of these notes continue to be passed throughout the south end of Durham Region, usually through small retail outlets and more recently through money changing machines. In the first six months of 1993 there were a total of 81 counter- feit bills passed. During the same period of time in 1994 there have been 539 and during the first few days of July there were another 69 making a total to date in 1994 of over 600 coun- terfeit bills passed. Over 70 per cent of all coun- terfeit bills passed have been Canadian with a predominance of $20s and $10s. Some have been new and oth- ers well worn. A common fea- ture of the counterfeit, is poor Police warn to watch for counterfeit bills paper quality. Careful inspec- tion of the counterfeit notes will show that they are smooth and waxy looking and also to the touch compared with the genu- ine ones having raised printing on several areas. Also the curved lines immediately to the left of the Queens head will not be perfect asin a real bank note. omparisons of suspicious notes should be'made with au- thentic bank notes in ones pos- session. - In addition, Canadian bank notes have green silk dots that can be'removed from the paper of the bank note. Mechanical re- productions of these green dots will leave a printed dot on the top of the paper which cannot be removed from the paper in one piece.
