Ministry of Natural Resources The Ministry of Natural Resources, located on Highway 17 in Terrace Bay is gearing up for the very busy season coming up. Actually the Ministry is busy all year long, but talk- ing to Irene Simpson and Janet Lohnes who are two of the people taking care of the counter service, sum- mer does tend to be a little busier because of the tourists passing through 'who look to the Ministry for directions to the best fishing, the nicest lakes, etc. Also working in the front office is Karen Thrower: radio operator and services clerk, Sharon Dobush: lands and parks clerk, Sheila Larocque who is the district clerk. Janet Lohnes is expenditure clerk, and Irene Simpson is the payroll clerk. They are kept very busy with their specific duties, as well as looking after the many questions that are directed to them by the public. As Janet says though, the customer comes first. From the front office you can purchase a wide range of maps, the ministries publications and free brochures, as well as the many -- different licences, from mining to burning permits for per- sonal fuel. Anything out of the front office hands gets directed either to Thunder Bay, or to the very ex- perienced supervisors and managers in the building. Mr. Paul Strassburger is the district manager, and _ the district is very large. Jim Nickelson is Land Supervisor, Jim Chappel is Fish, Wildlife and Parks Supervisor, and Mr. Dave Gorden is the Forest Management Supervisor out of Manitouwadge. All together there are 17 full- time permanent persons on staff in Terrace Bay and 18 in Manitouwadge, which is where the Ministry's main fire service is located. There is of course a fire crew. in Terrace Bay, which hires part-time per- sons in the summer. The Ministry hires many persons for summer employment, and they still continue their Junior Ranger program, which gives persons interested in t he field a chance to get first hand experience.
