Interested Citizens claim Queens Park delayed construction hydro corridor The Interested Citizens Group has refused to lie down and ale despite statements by Energy Minister Dennis Tim brell that he has gone as far as he can go meet local concerns over a Bradley Junction to Georgetown Hydro corridor The Bradley to Georgetown route alone was the subject of an environmental study carried out by Ontario Hydro in 1974 The ICG is calling for a hydro study of a I tenia tivcs to bring power from the Bruce nuclear generating station Spokesman for the Interested Citizens John Schneider says it is the Government not his group which has delayed con struction of the corridor be cause the government has failed to follow a directive which came from the Hon McKcough office November 14 1974 and he is corresponding with Premier to stress his point According to Hansard page Mr McKeough made the following speech in November Hydro initial study for Hie line from Bradley Junction to a station in he Milton area began in 1971 Atthit time the emphasis was on finding the most direct route while avoiding long diagonal property severances apart from existing severances across farm fields and the removal of farm buildings and seeking to locate along back lot lines Minimal dir changes avoiding the silhouetting of the line were also sought No particular emphasis was given at that time relative to environmental factors such as the avoidance of mature wet lands or steep slopes if these would have resulted in significant in Limehouse crease in length and cost On this basis a route in concession was identified and submitted to the Government liaison com and subsequently approved by cabinet on January nth 1372 In the fall of 1972 during the Solandl commission hear ings on the Pickering line it became clear that no route could be adequately justified unless the whole area was studied and documented taking into all environmental and other factors involving the public in addition to undertaking public participn Accordingly an en assessment of the study area was initiated in January 1973 Schneider said that Mr McKeough s statement that no route could be adequately justified unless the whole area wis studied and mented proves the ICG point The results of the hearings demon the whole irea was not studied and and this has been our rcpeit request We ire simply asking when we have the whole studied and documented so a proper scleetion of route ean be made Schneider said Referring to a letter received from Premier Davis that suggested allowed generous amount of time in discussion of the Bruce to ssa altern and disagreed with the groups views Schneider said only three hours of days of the Solandt hearings were spent discussing the Bruce line confirmed bj tapes of the hearings but five were spent on a studv of the Beverly Swamp in which testimony was given that the swamp was eight to ten feet deep It has now been determined to be 35 feet deep with some areas as deep as feet Considering the results obtained in study of an area onetenth the size of the area we arc proposing with over 10 times the amount of time spent on it our request does not seem unreasonable Schneider again repeating their request the whole area be studied and documented as staled by Mr November 14 174 Delays can be blamed on the Government since they have not followed the Energy Minister lines as stated in the House on that date the spokesman said Schneider concluded by noting the Interested Citizens have gone on record they would accept without question a report of a truly independent agency that would save everyone time and money Otherwise he foresees more delays by individual citizens using every means within their power to fight expropriation creating far greater than a study of the The Interested Citizens Group feels it the support of people along the proposed Bradley to George town corridor including many in llalton Hills of Milton The Acto Free
