The Ganaraska Cn servation Authority at a meeting in Port Hope recently, decided to ask the Canadian National Rail- way te remove a sniall emubank- rment ln order to gain access to the area. The 86 acres of land are im- mediately above Corbeitts Pond, northi of Highway 401. -A spokesinen for the authority said that it was "Iand-loked" for many years because the CNR owned land which bloeked the right-of,way. The tauthonity owned the prop- erty for some time and three yeers ago leased land from the CNR to open the area up. If the CNR gave permission te' reniove the embankment, he said, work would proceed on a parkcing lot as soon as possible. Picnic tables would be providcd and in lLs.
