News In Brief

Police like new vehicle

FIELD TESTING by New Aiyansh RCMP of a
4X4 vehicle designed for the American military
went ever well,

Constable Brent Ayers said he and detachment
members spent more than a week putting a Hum-
mer through its paces on some of the worst roads
in the area,

There were problems with tires on lava rock
shale in the area but that was probably because the:
tire pressure was a little too low, he said,

“‘T think it would fit in very well where there
isn’t a lot of pavement. It would have a fast
response lime,'’ said Ayers,

One officer from the New Aiyansh detachment
took the Hummer to Prince Rupert late last weck
so senior officers there could take a look at it. It
was due to be picked up over the weekend by the
dealer who owns it and then taken to Stewart to
some interested parties there.

BC Tel explains job cuts

BC TEL official Don Calder told council mem-
bers recently that the loss of B.C. Tel jobs isn’t
restricted to Terrace.

Calder had been asked up earlier in the year to
explain why 24 jobs were being cut in Terrace but
the original appearance was put off.

More than 600 B.C. Tel employees have already
taken up company offers of early retirement or
severance packages, he said.

That means some of those scheduled to lose
their jobs here will be able to transfer to openings
in olher parts of the province, Calder continued,

B.C. Tel employees had until April 12 10 decide
if they were going to take early retirement pack-
ages or severance packages offered them by the
company,

The Terrace jobs are due to disappear by mid-
October. Half of those involve people working in
a commercial sales office based in Terrace.

Legal aid gets money

LAW CENTRES and other agencies operated
through the B.C, Legal Services Society are back
in business after avoiding a shut down of opera-
tions April 1.

The society spent $22 million in addition to the
$101 million budget it received from the provin-
ciai government last year.

Society officials had threatened to stop taking
new clients should its money dispute with the
provincial government have continued.

Bear

set

GRIZZLY BEAR hunters
will be heading into the
woods under a different set
of rules this season.

All grizzly bear hunting in
B.C. will be on a limited
entry basis starting this fall.

Shawn Sharpe at the fish
and =wildlife office in
Smithers says there will
likely be two hunts in the
Skeena region this season -
one in the fall, and another
one in the spring,

He says hunters will have
until aboul mid-June to en-
ler their names in a lottery,
and they'll be notified by
early July if they’ve been
chosen.

He’s expecting about 460
authorizations to be
awarded for the two hunts,

There were no limits last
year and any qualified
hunted who applied for a li-
censc was given one.

There are about 4,000
grizzlies in the Skeena
region, and between 10,000
and 13,000 province wide,

He says the limited entry
bunt is being done in hopes
of stabilizing the grizzly
population.

“Grizzly bears are slow ta
reproduce,’’ he says.

“And their mortality rale
is high.”

Sharpe says research is
ongoing to more accurately
determine the number of

bears in the region, Your dream home hasn’t been built. Yet.
