4 The Canadian Champion, Wednesday, March 9.1977 !IruipOfl Editori4 JPage One more spring? Fromlise vuntage point f RutIle- anake Point lookout the weary days of winter seem 10 be meltisg. The fields are shedding their snow cover, the farmlando ure awiting the warming cycle thul will muke fhem productive, and Use valley with ils criss-croýssof couds, neatly organized fieldsaund patches of bush is a pleasant view. Contrat thut pastoral view witis the tesseneas in the ciambers of the Regional Council us members debate wiere your garbage will go ix the years uhead. Perhaps the electricity in the air cun best be re- flected in the tact that after boucs of debule und discussion backed by weeks of the same und $250,000 in consultante' work and reporte, tise final vote went Il lx 10 in fuvor of Site F. Suddenly, with a little imuginution, the view f rom Rattle- snake Point lookout takes on a differetîl perspective. The 240 acres of the regiosul dump site stand out as a blot an the formerly pleasant pastoral scene. We'ce 5000 burying tons of garbage each week fcom thcoughout the region. The winds are distibuting some of the lightec material fac and wnde. The scavenging birds are in louds and tise effect of the blot is spreading. There isn'I much coscers now in the chambers of the Regîonnl Council. Il's a few years since the site was oponed and counillors are pretty iappy il wsn't located in their ourds or even ix their muncipality. Tise talk of resouece rocovery isn'I pcomiflent in many discussions because the technology really hant advanced 100 fac and tise coste are prohibitive. A few more acres t Site F seema 10 be the easiest solution wien officials are remisded tise area ia filling capidly. Perisaps hefore the imaginative scene above is enucted there may still ho ime. Certainly Regional Couscil approved Site F in a demo- cratic, but vecy sarrow, vote. Bol juat us certaisly tisose who opposed tisaI decisios istelligently and per- sistently wll continue lx figit il. Tisat cas meus delays of mosths or years ohile aIl the iearingsanad ap- provals aire sought. Tiose mastisa or years may yet force a more equitable solution through the utili- zation of smaller dump sites more strategicully located tisoughout tise cegios. The moiti-site approach 10 dumps hafot been politically pal- stable. of course. Il is uccpeted that nu ose ounts a dump feur them. Certainly Haltos Hilîs didn't wast a dump t Ashgcove and thul oas hnund 10 influence tise thiskisg of those cousillors oho usas- imously fuvored Site F. ix Milton. We'ro uiways pieased to meet readera and me meet some ix places oflea removed fror tie local acese. Os tise weekend wO ex- cianged greelinga witis Ontarios ombudman Artisur Malosey oison ise addressed tise Ontario Weekly Noospapor Associaiosa con- vention. Ho bas a farm ix Milan and il oas a privilego lu ho able ta express lise Asociatuons appro- cialion for a tisougisîful address t breakfast Friday. If you Iiink tise farmer bas a simple taak, you porisapossould lers. as we dîd. frum tise l)tbuds- max tiaItiere are 53 statutes n lise Mînistry of Agriculture Ibat ce- laIe lu farm-orionted problems and counllesx hords, agescies and commissions tisaI are making de cisions whicis affect tise farmer. Thts wisy tise Ombudsan has a directorute of rural agricultural and muncipal services 10 assist lise frmer ix is dealings with Ue Ontario bureaucracy. Tise delivery of Use wenkly issue of Tise Champion 1e, Usse oulside Use Milon ares is difficult 10 antici- pals. Chatting wiUs a reader in Toronto recently, he was reparting Oakville and Burlington repre- senlalives oere splil, but op- position fromn those muncipalilies is bound to be similarly motivated. Parochial bias hpx to show. Similsrly MiltUn dont want the dtimp near ils hospilal, within view of Rattlesnake Point, next to homes or on good farm land. Milton wss, however prepared la consider a quarried ares ut Milton Bick. We're flot aware of any other municipality suggeting any site within their limits as an alter- nolive. The subject is a difficult one for regional counillors. Thats ose of the muasons consultants get called in and pid os well. Subconsciously the politicians hope someone else will solve the difficulty. But alas, consultaints merely ouline alternatives, submit their bill and leave the difficult part 10 the politiciaflo ugain. The bIt gimmick is s public participation program in which professionals tuke the pulse of the community and provide that kind of input. Un- frtunalely the communitys blood pressure doesn't change, until ils wuy of life is threutened with s cancer on the doorstep. Many in the urban centres dont recognize the pcoblem either. A suggestion h01 residente be usked la limait their disposable garbage to ose bag a week drew gales of pro- test. Some wondered whut kind of nonsense that cegional counillor was proposing. But the mounting volume of gurbuge ha a direct re- lutioship 10 the acres of land required for disposai, acres of lusd taken out of agricultural pro- duction. The regisasl dump int s reality yet. But t bas moved from the speculutive stage lu the statua of s confirmed location. There are more thousasds of dollars lu be spent on testisg thse site and Iis could yet aller ils uppeal, but tisat should hardly be counted on. There are hearingsahaied, poesibly ap- pels and more iearings, before the scuvenging birds owoop in os two or three hundced acres of land- filling sporulions thul are really the regionul dump. We're still hopeful that reuxon muy prevuil and omaller loctions muy ho considered in lighl of heuvy opposition tu the choice of Site F, and the nucrowness of the Regionul Council vote. f t's sot a ime for beisg com- placent tisough. There ia currently a relenîlesa murch toscrd Ue entrencisment of Site F as tise regional dump. lndeed there may be osly one more spring wisen we cas lookout f rom Rattlessuke Point 10 see tise fields shedding winler without a large blot on the farmlund. isootise delivery had improvrd.
