Page 2, News, Tuesday, October 15 1991 Community briefs SS ee Temp. sewage sight Schreiber Township has given R.C. Cesspool permis- sion to temporarily use the town's sewer system. The company empties septic and holding tanks for people not connected to the municipal sewer system in the Walker Lake area. The waste is then dumped into drybeds, which are land tracts where the waste can dry out. When it has dried out, is moved to a landfill. R.C. Cesspool has run out of drybeds, however, and has been unable to get approval from the Ministry of Environment, the Ministry of Natural Resources, and Terrace Bay Town Council to establish new ones. So Schreiber has agreed to let the company dump the waste into its sewage treat- ment system until the company can get approval for a new drybed area.

Curling tax woes The Schreiber Curling Club lost a bid to have its tax burden eased. Town Council refused the club's application for a grant to help pay its outstanding taxes. In turning down the request, Councillors ruled that since the Club has made progress on reducing a bank loan it took out to renovate the club, and that the club's taxes were remitted in 1987 and 1988, the curlers shouldn't get any more help. The best the club could get is an offer from council to negotiate a monthly payment New hydro rates Effective Jan._1, the average electricity bill in Ontario will go up around $7 a month. "We know the impact this increase will have on our cus- tomers and we've tried to be sensitive about that," Hydro Chair Marc Eliesen said. "But our electricity system is aging, and parts of it need to be replaced or refurbished." More than half of the increase is caused by the Dar- lington Nuclear Generating Station coming into service, and other nuclear costs. The increase will raise the average monthly bill for 1,000 kilowatt-hours to about $78.

The test was conducted around a 22 hectare basin used to process liquid effluent from the kraft pulp mill. Scientists exposed bags of moss to the area around the basin for a period of a month. The moss was then exam- ined, and the results were com- pared with other moss samples that had been placed in the area before the basin had been established.
