Se os i ln le ct ha ei Town sends letter to Treasurer to boost Baymoorings proposal Municipal officials in Penetanguishene are hoping a letter sent yesterday to Ontario Treasurer Robert Nixon will boost the chances of getting a government grant to help cover costs of a proposed $9 million expansion of Inn at Baymoorings, Penet- anguishene Mayor Ron Bellisle, said yesterday. Baymoorings owner Albert Melchior un- veiled plans for a hotel, convention cen- tre at his Fox Street marina in mid-August 'and said at that time the ambitious project would need support from a tourism stimulation program jointly funded by the federal and provincial governm- ents. The fund provides money to help defray captial expenditures incurred in major ex- pansion of all-seasons , journeys --end>* resorts. Melchior said the Baymoorings proposal meets the governments' criteria for support from the program and asked that the municipality boost the project by letting the governments' know the town is behind it. The municipality has given its approval in principle for the proposed Baymoorings expansion. Bellisle said the letter to Nixon requests the treasurer to meet with municipal officials to discuss the Melchior proposal. PC policy Results in waste control, says MPP by ALLAN K. MCLEAN NUP Ee. Simcoe East A direct result of the review of Ontario's waste management programs, which was started up in 1982, is a new Environment Ontario regulation that will guarantee a step-by-step monitoring and policing of the disposal of hazardous and liquid industrial wastes. This reform, called Regulation 309, is aimed at controlling the process of handling industrial wastes from the disposer to the eventual disposal site. The new regulation clearly establishes who has responsibility during this process each step of the way. Regulation 309 comes out of recommendations made in the Blueprint for Waste Management, which was launched in 1982 and studied by en- vironmentalists, concerned citizens, as well as industry, business and municipalities. Under the new regulation, which comes into law this fall, those who create liquid and hazardous industrial wastes must register these wastes with the Ministry of Environment within twelve months. A manifest must be filled out for -each shipment of waste to ensure that it is recycled, treated or properly disposed of. ae Act, which went into effect the beginning of uly This new regulation was announced in June, by then Environment Minister Susan Fish. It is a responsible and reasonable advance which shows that the then Miller government did take its duties for the environment seriously. The Ontario Progressive Conservative Party believes a clean, safe environment is a precious heritage to be protected and enjoyed by all. If you are concerned about environmental issues in your community, you may want to get a hold of a copy of the Environmental Sourcebook. This is a re-edition of a very useful publication put out by the Ontario Environmental Network. The Sour- cebook contains a listing of all environmental groups in the province.
