recommendations will be sent to the abinet ommittee on Resources Development which had commissioned the con ference to identify the pro blems and design strategy Sliillington said the next step will be to determine how the province and the municipalities will share the costs of maintain ing the water quality in Lake Simcoe and controlling phosphorous levels Experts with the ministry of

$48 million year or $150 home in addition to what they pay now These figures are based on current population of 186000 he said As the population increased so would the phosphorous enter ing the lake

additional efforts to reduce other sources of the nutrient such as urban storm drainage and runoff from agricultural land Salbach said the technology on urban drainage control was still not well understood and wedont know how to attack the agricultural side of it He said the report committee had faced the difficult question as to how realistic it is to go for improving conditions We have come

with great reluctance to the report committees option to maintain rather than improve the lakes waterquality We wanted to go as far down the ladder as possible and im prove the take as much as is practical he said Shillington said if the com riiittee had choice it would protect the cold water fisheries but this would mean dropping the level of phosphorous to 75 tons and this wasunrealistic He
