DECOM The hearing for the Decons Medical Waste Facilities wlll resumne on June 2. Everyone opposing the Waste fadllities should write to their Provincial elected representative George Ashe, and the Minister of the Environment, The Hon. James Bradley, Queen's Park, Toronto, and express their concerns. The location is the prime drawback, and the credlbllity of this company leaves a lot to be desired. Spills <which they say are unlikely to bap- pen) can and will happen, leaving rods closed for up to five hours and a ioss of businéss to many com- panies within the area. These are only a few of the many concerns that residents and business have to consider. This is definitely the wrong location for loading 50 tons of hurnan body parts and animal carcasses daily. Our local councillors may also be contacted.
