Annual Bird Census Scheduled December 29 Basic plans were laid for the annual Christmas bird census when sixteen members of McHenry county chapter of Illinois Audubon society met at the home of Mrs. George Skinkle of Crystal Lake recently. Many others will cooperate with the Auduboners in the bird census Dec. 29. The area is determined by a 15-mile radius from the center of Fleming and Bull Valley roads in Woodstock. The census effort by the McHenry chapter is in cooperation with all other chapters of the National Audubon society. All of these combined findings across the continent trace the bird migrations, warn of en­ dangered species and compile other important ornithological information. The McHenry Auduboners will form seven teams to be captained by Mrs. Kenneth Fiske, Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Perry, Mrs. William Carroll, all of Woodstock, Mrs. George Baker of Belvidere, Mr. Maurice Watson, Tom Thurow and Steve Peck (who is general chairman of Census day) all of Crystal Lake, and Mrs. David Gay of Wonder Lake.

STAFF PHOTOS EPA Sets Forth New Safe Water Proposals The Illinois Environmental Protection agency is proposing new regulations to safeguard drinking water by requiring all public water supplies in the state to chlorinate their water. Jeff Diver, acting director of the Illinois EPA, noted in an­ nouncing the proposal that chlorination can help protect the public health by controlling the many organisms that can be present in drinking water. "Chlorination of drinking water can help to* control the source of such water-borne diseases as typhoid, cholera and polio," Diver said. "Although we have not had a serious outbreak of such diseases in Illinois since 1939, we must take every precaution," he added. Of the 1,600 public water supplies in Illinois, some 930 already chlorinate their water, leaving about 670 water sup­ plies that would be affected by the proposed regulations. Currently, chlorination is required only for surface water supplies or for other supplies that have a history of possible contamination, according to Diver. "The proposal for new regulations to protect drinking water is a general updating of regulations which have been in effect since 1966," Diver added. The proposed regulations also specify the amounts of many chemicals such as ar­ senic, copper, cyanide, mer­ cury and zinc that would be allowable in water treated and distributed by a public water supply. $ Public hearings must be held ^ on the proposed regulations by 1 the Illinois Pollution Control 3 board. After the public hearings, the Pollution Control board has the authority to * modify the proposed regulations or to enact regulations as currently written.
