The mayor is seen here Nuclear evacuation went well:. Sexstone By JAN DODGE Free Press Staff In spite of recent CBC television coverage by The Journal, the safety officer for the Durhanm Board of Education said the practise evacuation of schools near Pickering's nuclear plant went well. Outlining bis progress to the board since he became health and safety off icer in December of '84, Colin Sexstone said, "What we did last September speaks for itseif.. Everything was done as real as it could be. 'm happy with the fact that it does work. I'd like to try it again. " Sexstone, who is the first health and safety officer hired by the board, said planning the evacuation was bis first projeet. He later said, "It was a test of police, firemen, and social services as well. They would not bave been able bo see what they could do if we hadn't run that exercise .I believe in testing things." Although no Whitby schoois are in the 10 kilometer zone, (the area planned for evacuation stops at Durbam, Road 23) Henry Street High School and St. John The Evangelist School, plus some Oshawa scbools are destinations for evacuues according to the plan. Other projects Sex- stone reported were the distribution of first aid kits to ahi 103 work- places, and first aid training for 322 eni- ployees now in progress. Sexstone said an in- ventory of ail chemicals in use in schools had been completed by the March break. He has planned for a waste chemical pick-up in June hv an authorized waste disposaI company to dispose of chemicals believed to be bazar- dous, such as mercury, or of old chemicals which are no longer being used. 'We'll clear out what-we don't need to avoid 'problerns to students." On a randoni basis Sexstone bas been doing safety inspections of schools. He bas corn- pleted 35 to date, just one in Witby: Florence M. Heard, wbere seven deficien- cies were observed. , Sexstone said when he notices infractions, he attempts 10 have repairs made within three months. If a piece of equipmnent poses -an irnmediate threat to safety, such as a paper cutter whicb won't remain raised after it is lifted, he would remove it immediately, and see that it was repaired or replaced. By February flood warning procedures were in place for al schools affected, he said. Wbitby elemen- tary schools included in the plan are: Col. J.E. Farewell, Dr. R. Thor- nton, Florence M. Heard, Meadowcrest, and Wbitby Senior. Henry Street High School is also included. Sexstone was also called in to inspect somne specific areas of con- cern, two at Witby schools: the ashestos- lined welding booths.at Henry Street and the traffic congestion at E.A. Fairman. No ashestos fibres were found in the air at Henry Street, 'Sexstone said. R-e had the asbestos .shields replaced and guarcjed with angle irons to prevent future breakage. "Some of the booths get run down because they are abused by students who try to bore tbrough theni." he said. "Teachers will monitor the booths more closely now, and report damage to the superintendent of plant. The booths are checked before and af- ter repairs by the Ministry of Labor. " The traffic problem at E.A. Fairman is, being considered by the. bo a rd administration. No ac- tion has been taken, as yet, he said. Sexston bas bad 30 years' experience .wltb the Canadian Armed Forces in logistics an d since 1973, in safetv. Chairman ,of the Board Ruth Lafarga noted that Sexstone, as the first health and safety officer employed by the board, "lhad to corne on staff and establish his own parameters for the job. " "Durham is one of the only seven boards in the province that bas a safety officer," Bruce Mather, director of education, said, Lafarga noted the healtb and safety progran was aothe government ini tive that would impact on the board's budget.
