Search goes on to find anew alternative waste disposal site Two members of the Midland Penetang Tiny Landfill Site Committee met with officials of the Ministry of the Environment in Toronto on Tuesday to report on their progress in the search for an alternate waste disposal site. Deputy-reeve John Lackie of Tiny Town- ship and Midland town engineer Percy Ehler met with Joe Bur- nham of the offices of the Ministry in Toronto and Niel Embree from Barrie. The ministry had expressed concern before the new year over the future of waste disposal in the area when the M.P.T. con- tract with the operator of the Perkinsfield landfill site expires in September. The members of the M.P.T. committee reported on their search for a new site. Accor- ding to John Lackie a number of possible locations are being considered. The Ministry of the Environment provides a 50 percent subsidy for costs involved in the search. Most of the expenses incurred in the search are fees paid to consulting engineers and hydrologists. Impressed Lackie reports he was "'kind of impressed" with the scope of in- terest shown by representatives of the ministry, who discussed projections for future volume of waste, ser- vice levels for garbage collection as well as the sight search. According to Lackie "It's damn hard to find an alternate site." The water table in Tiny township has' been described as "screwball" by the deputy-reeve who says there are very few sites within the municipality that would meet Ministry standards under environmental assessment studies. The M.P.T. com- mittee has been dissatisfied with the operation of the Perkinsfield landfill site. and "wants to get back to operating our own site', Lackie ex- plains. This would ensure proper day to day operation and long- term availability of a site for the member municipalities. The Perkinsfield site is presently zoned for landfill on only 20 of the 100 acres available. It is estimated that the site will be filled within two years if the additional acreage is not granted a change in zoning to allow dumping. Deputy- reeve Lackie says "Tiny is reluctant to go to an O.M.B. hearing without an environmental assessment study proving the rest of the site is suitable." Owner Site owner Eric Pauze has refused to have an _ assessment done until a re-zoning is granted- hence the stalemate. The M.P.T. contract with Pauze is not an exclusive one. As long as he is licensed by the Ministry as a landfill site operator, he can Tax Tips accept waste from other sources. "We feel so helpless, having no say in how the site is operated," Lackie says. He also expresses concern over the type of waste accepted at the Perkinsfield site, noting that there has never been an en- vironmental assess- ment done and that monitoring of volumes It's that time of year again folks Taxpayers--Have you read your 1980 Tax Guide?
