Local 1219, Canadian Union of Public Employees in Markham Town- ship, were scheduled to go to salary conciliation before a three-man board at 11 am today (February 12) at the King Ed- ward Hotel. Chairman of the conciliation board is Allan Dennis of Lake- field. Ontario. The union's nominee is Harry Simon, Can- adian Labor Congress Ontario director. The township's nomi- nee is Toronto lawyer Thomas Storie. who recently acted in a similar capacity for Vaughan Township. Douglas Flood. president of Local 1219. and Frank Kitchen, CUPE national representative, were to present the union case to the conciliation board. Local 1219 represents 23 workers and is seeking its first contract since certification in Markham last May. A concilia- tion officer failed to bring the two sides together in December.

M a r k h a m Township which is at present serviced through the Metro sewer system. Mr. Wronski also noted that the Village of Wood- bridge is similarly serviced through Metro but. with all lands west of Highway 400, is excluded from the OWRC program. The proposed systems are to be designed to serve an ultimate population of 360.- 000, although it is estimated that the 1989 population will be only 234,100. but the internal collecting and distribution sytems will re m ain the responsibility of the municipalities. The municipality will be compen- sated for the original capital cost of the plants plus inâ€" terest over a period of 40 years. it t itr a a: The preliminary whole- sale water rate established by the OWRC is 27 cents per 1,000 gallons. which will cover capital and operating costs. However. this figure, is not. the price to the con- sumer, since it does not in- clude the cost. of providing the municipal distribution system nor the cost of pur- 000 but this does not include the cost to the OWRC of ac- quiring. the existing works, Mr. Wronski pointed out. The com-mision intends to retrieve its capital and operating costs by charging the participating municipali- ties an estimated 70c per 1.000 gallons of sanitary waste collected and treated. The 1969 Richmond Hill Council expressed concern that these rates. as well as those for water. are consider- ably higher than rates es- tablished by the OWRC in neighboring areas. In South Peel the water rate for the first 1,500 million gallons each year is 31¢ per 1,000 Mr. Wronski has commenâ€" ted t'hat the principal of establishing intermunicipal water supply and a water pollution control system is sound. He warns, however that the province should adopt a regional plan to sup- port and coâ€"ordinate growth over a wider area. He warns that the ultimate OWRC servicing areas are consider- ably more extensive than in- dicated for the 20 year plan- ning period. so that munici- palities could be tempted to yield to development pres- sures to expand the areas approved by the OWRC. The defined urban area in the north fringe could be suffi- an alternative to the OWRC plan. The same department was requested to investigate and establish the water require- ments of the Metro area to be serviced by its reservoirs and to determine the feasi- bility of supplying water to the OWRC system. Concern is expressed by Metro of the choice of site for the disposal plant at the mouth of Petticoat Creek, since that waterway is a con- servation area. An alterna- tive site. at the mouth of Duffin Creek has been sug- gested to be shared with municipalities in the east fringe of Metro. 9ltltllllllllllllllllllllllllllll\lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllltllllllll\lllllllllllllitllllllllllllllllllltllllllllllllllllltlllllllllllllllll“llllllllllllllllllttlllllmlllllllllllllllllllllllll‘lllltlllllllllllllttlll tl\lllilllllllllllllittllllltllllllllllllllltllllllllllllllllllltillllllllllllttlitlllllttlllllltttlllllttlllllllllllllllllltllllllllllllltllllllllllllllllltillllllllllltlltlltlllllllltllllttlllllllllllie!I car C'dl.

Since it is known that ex- isting ground water supplies will be depleted as popula- tion and other water users increase. the OWRC has de- cided ‘that water must come from Lake Ontario and that the most economical method would be through Metro‘s waterworks system. The commission proposes that the water be stored in three reservoirs â€"â€" Kecle (in use). Kennedy (under construcâ€" tion) and Bayview (planned). Two additional reservoirs will he built by OWRC in Richmond Hill and in Maple. Oliver Wilcox of RR, 1, Woodbridge, had $700 damage and Charles Campbell of New- market had $800 damage.

(At present Metro sells puri- fied water at 25¢ per 1,000 gals.) The sanitary sewerage dis- posal system will consist of two trunk sewers draining to a new treatment plant situa- ted in Pickering Township at the mouth of the Petti- coat Creek. according to OWRC plans. It will be con- structed in one staae. but. subject to local needs. the design capacity of the. pump- ing stations and treatment plant. may not be reached until a later date. The comâ€" mission intends to convert its existing John Street treatment plant in Markham Township into a pumping station and construct three new pumping stations. It proposes to close existing treatment plants in the Town of Markham. John Street; and Unionville in Markham Township and the West Don Plant in Vaughan. Students of Seneca College were not seriously affected by the one day “study session" staged by community college teachers Monday to protest the Department of Education‘s fail- ure to comply with teacher re- quests for recognition of a province-wide faculty associa~ ‘tion. Few Support Seneca Walkout Mr‘ Wronski also pointed out that the proposed plan could obviate construction of the proposed Carrville plant in Vaughan to which the commisinn was opposed but which has since received cabinet approval. Only about 75 of the teaching staff of 210 attended the study session at Edwards Gardens, and many of these spent part of the day at the college attend- ing to their normal duties. Estimated capital cost of the sewer project is $44,700.- 000 but this does not include the cost to the OWRC of ac- quiring the existing worku, Mr. Wronski pointed out. Prior to the token walkout. Faculty Association President Robert Scott of Seneca's data processing division urged stu- dents to make .the best possible use of their time on Monday. to concentrate on special as- signments given by teachers in anticipation of a major walk out. The students were encour- aged to make full use of col- lege facilities through the day. The com-mision intends to retrieve its capital and operating costs by charging the participating municipali- ties an estimated 70c per 1.000 gallons of sanitary waste collected and treated. Leonard Bostrom of Seneca’s engineering technology division, and an official of the Ontario Federation of Community Colâ€" lege Associations, emphasized. that the protest had nothing to do with faculty relations with the board and admihistration at ‘Seneca. that the only quarrel was with the Department of Edâ€" ucation. » The 1969 Richmond Hill Council expressed concern that these rates. as well as those for water, are consider- ably higher than rates es- tablished by the OWRC in neighboring areas.

He was describing the recent unit‘s drive which netted some three tons of DDT now tem- porarily stored at the head- quarters in Newmarket. _ _-_. ,7,,‘_ Possessox's of DDT are viola- ting a provincial law which has banned its use since. January 1 of this year. Persons possessing DDT must not discard it in re- gular garbage. and under no circumstances would it be poured down a drain or flushed down a toilet. H“We’re now waiting for pro- vincial directives to tell us where to bury it." Mr. Burns noted that the biggest amount of DDT was turned in from Richmond Hill, Markham and Vaughan Town- ships. The health unit set up deposi- tory locations throughout the county in municipalities such as Richmond Hill. King. Markham and Vaughan Townships. "There's no way of telling just how much DDT is around.” Mn Burns said. “but we are satisfied we received an ample amount." i u...-....... He stated there was no im- mediate danger but that the ban had been put on the insecticide because the levels were reach- ing what could be considered a dangerous point. “It was 5 case of stopping it before it reached this level." gals. and for the remainder 21120. The sewer rate ls 23c. per 1.000 gals. and 29c. in the other four municipalities involved. The great differ- ence is due to the diffel‘once in population â€"- 1.200.000 m South Peel and a projected population of 360,000 in the area to be served by the OWRC in South York. Also a substantial portion of the main trunk sewer will not be utilized but will serve only as a conduit to the water pollution control plant at the mouth of Petticoat Creek. They feel that, as professionals, they are dealing with the col- lege on a personal level. They see no need for a province-wide bargaining agent â€" “If we are not happy here, we can‘ go {somewhere else!" The municipalities will submit an annual report to the commission stating re- quirements for water and sewage services for subse- quent three-year periods, with a penalty for any muni- cipality which exceeds its estimated three-year require- ments. Part of the faculty at Centen- nial College in Scarboro also took the‘day for study sessions. OFCCFA President Harold Morgan is a teacher at Cen- tennial. The OWRC must enter into an agreement with Metro for the supply nf puri- fied water to the fringe area, but has the power to require Metro to supply the water. The terms of such agreement will include the purchase price of water. timing of con- struction and the quantify to be supplied at various dates. However. many of Centen- nial's teachers are already members of the Civil Service Association of Ontario, which also maintains that it should be recognized as bargaining agent for community college staff.

Deputy-reeve Ivan Mansbrldge reported to council last week. The deputy-reeve Is a member of the county's welfars committee. “The provincial welfare does not recommend this due to the cost factor." he explained. "and the county has endorsed it.

From the point of view of the OWRC. the proposed water supply system exhibits the least cost â€"â€" from the point of View of the local municipalities. this proposal appears to be overly expen- sive, Mr. Wronski stated. Metro approved in prin- ciple establishment of inter- municipal water supply and sewage systems to encourage limited urban development in the northern fringe, with the proviso that, a satisfac- tory political and planning arrangement could be made between Metro and the other municipalities involved. tennial‘s Transportation and In-t| dustrial Power Technology Di-- vision taught previously at Pro- vincial Institutes of Trades and have been members of CSAO for several years. However. Metro also felt that the future pattern of ur- ban development should be established and made bind- ing on all governments and agencies with an interest in the area. George Brown College in Toronto and Humber College in Etobicoke also have strong representation in CSAO. Neith-er college took part in the pro- test Monday. 1 The Metro Works Depart- ment: has been asked to con- fer in depth with the OWRC to determine the feasibility of servicing, on a permanent or temporary basis, the de- fined urban area in the north fringe. through the Metro sanitary disposal system as an alternative to the OWRC plan. The same department was requested to investigate and establish the water require- ments of the Metro area to be serviced by its reservoirs and to determine the feasi- bility of supplying water to the OWRC system. Community colleges were first established in Ontario in 1966, and Centennial was one of the first to open its doors. Seneca and Humber were founded in 1967. There are now 20 com- munity colleges in the province. Concern is expressed by Metro of the choice of site for the disposal plant at the mouth of Petticoat Creek. since that waterway is a con- servation area. An alterna- tive site‘ at the mouth of Duffin Creek has been sug- gested to be shared with municipalities in the east fringe of Metro. --.....
