Woodlands layoff (same issue) "Dateline Longlac- Kimberly- Clark announced on Jan. 21 the lay- off of 19 permanent and one tempo- rary salaried employees in its wood- lands operations. "David H. Linton, vice-president of K-C's woodlands operations, said that the layoff, part of the woodlands Survival Plan, would take place over the next few months. "He also announced a major change in woodlands operating meth- ods, under which the company's cur- rent tree-length haul and centralized slashing system would be switched to a bush slashing and short-wood haul system." Kimberly-Clark accepts Control Order (Feb. 4 issue) "As of Jan. 30, Kimberly-Clark has indeed accepted the order. "Jack Lavallet announced on Jan. 30 that the terms of the control order have been resolved and that K-C will continue a 'program to improve the environment at Terrace Bay'." "approximately $1 million in additional spending will be added to the order to upgrade the mill's con- densate stripping system to further reduce effluent toxicity. "Spending of an additional $1 million will also be accelerated to further improve the mill's air emis- sions compliance status. ",,.Although the control order negotiations have been resolved, Kimberly-Clark maintains that K-C's U.S. parent still plans to close the mill if it doesn't show a profit by the end of the year." Romanuk resigns from council (Feb. ll issue) » "Peter Romanuk has resigned from council because as he said, 'T cannot continue to serve on council to the best of my ability under the system proposed'." ".,,.Romanuk was reluctant to comment but he did say he doesn't like the new system. "T's not in keeping with practices of the last 10 years. I guess I'm not acceptable to changes. In a town this size, past practices have worked'. "Romanuk told the News that he has been on council for eight and-a- half years out of the last nine or 10 years." Rossport Fire Truck (Feb. 18 issue) "Last week the News ran a photo- graph of the new fire truck recently purchased by Rossport. "The truck, Rossport's first-ever, is a 1959 International. It was pur- chased with help from the Ministry of Northern Development and Mines, said Rossport Fireman Doug Stefurak. "...The truck has a 500-gallon holding capacity and it can pump water at a rate of 625 gallons per minute. "The above-mentioned ministry also assisted in financing the Rossport Fire Hall, which was built in 1985. "...The fire hall will be in opera- tion once it is fully completed. Doug Stefurak set a tentative date of early June for commencement of opera- tions." Pollution Probe booed at meet- ing (Keb, 25 issue) THANK YOU We would like to express our sincere gratitude to everyone that brought donations to the Credit Union. Your gifts gave much joy to the Foster Children at their Christmas party. Special thanks to Kay, Cathy &Credit Union Staff Family & Children's Services of the District of Thunder Bay. "The highlight of last week's Draft Control Order mecting was the public forum that followed presentations by Kimberly-Clark and Ministry of the Environment (MOE) officials. Let us get to work "...During the public forum that followed the presentations, it was Terrace Bay resident Bill Love (safe- ty co-ordinator for K-C) who best- described how residents feel here about the whole Control Order situa- tion and the surrounding turmoil. "He said in his speech prepared for the mecting that just like every- one else who lives in this area, he has a big stake here along the North Shore. "Everyone has felt the pressure from government and pressure groups, he said, that lack understand- ing and threaten the existence of everyone involved with Kimberly- Clark here. "Love said there is no disagree- ment that the environmental perfor- mance (of K-C) must be improved upon. K-C must be provided 'a logi- cal time frame to meet the chal- lenges- get out of our way and let us get to work,' he said. "His words met with a round of applause from the audience. Pollution Probe "...The atmosphere at last wéek's meeting suddenly became tense when Pollution Probe Researcher Kai Millyard stepped up to the micro- phone. "As soon as he introduced him- self, he was thoroughly booed by people in the audience. "The first thing Millyard said was that he had enough guts to come to speak to the people in Terrace Bay. "The difficulty he said he's had is that the company (K-C) has stuck its heels in the ground and taken a hard line position that if the government was tough (with the Control Order) it would shut down and throw people's futures out the window. That is not a constructive way to" solve problems,' he said. It all comes down to 'how we solve problems and who is making the decisions'. Huggies and Kleenex ""Millyard then tumed the micro- phone over to a part time Pollution Prober from Thunder Bay, Bruce -- Hyer, who was also heckled by mem- bers of the audience. "Hyer, who was later seen carry- ing mill effluent in a juice bottle, said he had some suggestions for Terrace Bay. One was that hopefully someday Huggies and Kleenex will be made here. "He said all of K-C's profits go elsewhere to the U.S.- more value on jobs and income must be placed here in Terrace Bay. "Hyer said he does not believe Pollution Probe has endangered jobs- workers should control their own fate and destiny in case K-C does pull out of the North. 'The timber licence should not go to whoever buys the mill (if it is sold),' he said." Houston new councillor to replace Romanuk (March 11 issue) "New Councillor Bill Houston...was officially sworn in at the Feb. 23 meeting of Terrace Bay council...- he replaces Peter Romanuk who resigned. "Houston was a councillor before for three years and his last term was in November of 1985. "At that time he ran for reeve of Terrace Bay against Counc. Ollie Chapman. "Houston said he feels the same way now as when he ran for reeve a few years back- 'duty bound'." SIT. Terrace Bay-Schreiber News moving after 30 years (March 18 issue) "News flash- The Terrace Bay- Schreiber News will be moving from its location in the basement of the post office to the recently vacated spot at 13 Simcoe Plaza (formerly Sun & Fun Sports) beside the credit union. "The move was decided upon in order to give the paper more exposure to the public not to mention giving the News a more modern look and a newer and fresher atmosphere." 101 employees to lose jobs in May (March 25 issue) "Another step in the continuing effort by Kimberly-Clark of Terrace Bay to streamline its pulp operations, the closing of the Longlac sawmill, has been announced and it will take effect on May 15. "The closure will result in the loss of 101 jobs- this includes 59 hourly sawmill employees, four salaried employees and 38 woodlands employees. "President of K-C of Canada and General Manager of the Terrace Bay mill Jack L. Lavallet told those at a meeting that he was making the announcement with 'great reluctance'. "He said the sawmill business (and the sawmill operations) has been analyzed and it shows that there will no be reasonable rate of return in the future to ensure K-C's primary objec- tive- quality pulp. "...therefore K-C 'cannot accept the drain on all the resources of our company that the sawmill is placing on us'." Board meetings explain both sides (April 1 issue) "Both the Lake Superior Board of Education and the North of Superior District R.C.S.S. Board have held public meetings to inform citizens about the North of Superior's plan for French Catholic extension in Manitouwadge and the resulting impact on the Lake Superior board's educational system... " .The Lake Superior board con- tends that this move will narrow the public board's tax base resulting in an increase to remaining public taxpay- ers. : "The board (Lake Superior) says they cannot afford cven now to pro- vide a varied selection of courses for the students. "The present situation will get even worse if the extension gocs through, claims the public board- the separate board's plan will threaten the viability of the existing public-run high school. "Therefore, their plan does not meet the criteria of Bill 30 (Bill 30 gives separate school boards the right to operate Catholic high schools without affecting the viability of pub- lic high schools). "The 'whole truth' did come out at the North of Superior school board's public meeting on March 24. "One impression received at this meeting was that the plan is not a plan to fragment, but a plan to give Francophone students the education they are entitled to. "George Matys, director of educa- tion for the North of Superior D;RG:S-.Se Board, "said the Francophone ratepayers now have a right to govern their own educalicn and the North of Superior board is just the mechanism through which they can now attain governance. "Paul Bourrassa, principal of Ecole Notre Dame de Lourdes in Manitouwadge, said that the French culture is very precious and that it should be retained at the secondary level. : "Rose Dumais, French sector chairperson of the North of Superior ~ board, said people seem to think of French as just another course like Math or Geography. "She said it is not just another course, but a_culture and a way of fife.® Bits and Bites and Winnie's Scribbles will return next week.
