"No Confidence In AECB" Newcastle Councillor Ken Lyall advised council Jan. 19 that he has "absolutely no confidence in the AECB (Atomic Energy Control Board)." Coun. Lyall made the com- ment durin council's con- sideration o a recommenda- tion from John Leighton of Leighton and Kidd consultants that council should not reply to a letter from Hydro Chairman Robert Taylor until they seek advice of their rights from town solicitor Ed McNeely. "In view of what has happened in Port Hope in the past few weeks we should be very careful with this nuclear plant," Coun. Lyall stated. "I still remember them with their baby blue eyes assuring us that there was nothing wrong with the dump at Port Gran y," he added. "There's plenty wrong with it." Coun. Lyall went on to question the funding for the consulting firm while Coun. Ann Cowman indicated that the reply from Mr. Taylor was slightly different in wording than that regarding the setting Lyall up of a liaison committee of appointed representative be- tween Hydro and Council. If such a committee is formed, the Northumberland - New- castle Board of Education advise that they have already selected their representatives to it. Mr. Leighton suggested to council that "it should be mandatory that Hydro hold public hearings and that their witnesses be rigorously cross- examined." He also advised that in studying the "impact study" published by Hydro with respect to the proposed plant his firm has determined that "there are questions we would like to see answered." Council previously agreed to engage the consulting firm to study the hydro proposal, payment to b e made only when a grant has been received for such research. To date, since the provincial government turned down counciI's request for such funds, none have yet been received and the firm are working at their own expense. New Jaycee Policy May Help A A decision made at the Bowmanville Jaycees meet- ing last Wednesday is quite likely to have an encouraging effect on members making an extra effort to attend meet- ings. President Larry Pooler recommended, with the unit concurring, that "any mem- ber in good standing present a reasonable explanation to the executive for not attending a dinner meeting when so com- mitted or, be billed for the same." Mr. Pooler's concern was that, although the club have apparently been fortunate to date in not being billed by the Darlington Marina Hotel for the extra meals preyared and not usedit is not in airness to the caterer or the unit to assume such costs. Therefore, under the new policy, any member who assures they will be in attendance and fails to show ttendance will either have to have an acceptible reason or pay the shot for the meal anyway. Waverly Rink Being WeIl Used Despite the refusal of the Region on the reuest of residents in the W averly Community Area to use a hydrant as a water source for flooding of an outdoor rink, children and others in the subdivision are now exercis- ing their blades on a regular basis. A rink was flooded with the co-operation of the Bowman- ville Fire Department who used their water tanker to haul some 13,500 gallons-of water to the Martin Road site, a task requiring some nine hours of work. Recreation Director Bud Fanning reported the success of the venture to the Jan. 19 meeting of the community services committee, the com- pleted rink now to be main- tained by the residents of the area. Chairman of the Committee, Coun. Ann Cowman, com- mented that the winter wea- ther this year has been co-operative with such out- door rinks so far.
