TERRACE -— More than
$440,000 work of work in-
volving paving and sewers
has started on the stretch of
Lazelle Ave, between Eby
and Emerson,

When finished later this
year there'll be new and
wider pavement and a storm
sewer to eliminate those
small lakes that build up dur-
ing wet periods, says city
public works superintendent
Stew Christensen,

Included in that amount is
$35,000 for a new sanitary
sewer system between Ot-
tawa and Emerson but the
old one will be examined first
by means of a TV camera to
see if it needs replacing, he
said.

The work going on now is
to install the storm sewer
system, Christensen added.
That cost is $110,000.

Approximately $300,000
will be spent on the paving.
A large portion of that cost is
divided between the city and.
property owners along that
stretch of Lazelle. -

WORK HAS started on improvements to Lazelle Ave. Under-
way now is a storm sewer to be followed by new pavement, A
new sanitary sewer system will also be installed if an investiga-
tion of the old one finds major problems.

replacement for the sidewalk
plan.

He expected paving to
start in June or July after
another cost-shared paving
project on Halliwell is com-
plete.

Some paved portions of
that stretch of Lazelle Ave.
are now only 22 feet wide.

A separate proposal for
share costs to put in
sidewalks on Lazelle where
there aren’t any now was
voted down by property
owners.

“Perhaps we'll put in grass
instead. That’s worked suc-
cessfuly on Lakelse," said
Christensen of a _ possible

Lyme
disease
research
needed

TERRACE — Although there
are 20 to 30 possible cases of
Lyme disease in the Terrace
area, the Skeena Health Unit’s
medical health officer says it’s
too early to get alarmed.

Dr. David Bowering said
public concern about the disease
— carried by ticks and linked to
arthritis, neurological and car-

“diae disorders —-has’prompted |

patient-advocacy groups to spr-
ing up around the province,
demanding faster action on the
disease.

But he said more research
needs to be done before a
serious alarm is raised. ©

‘We're still trying to find out
how much of a risk it really is in
this province,” he said. '*And
we still don't know if we have it
in our local group or not,”’

Only a handful of B.C.
specimens sent to an American
lab tested positive for the
disease, he said, and all but one
are believed to have been expos-
ed out-of-province.

And the positive tests in B.C.
have been based on the detec-
tion of antibodies to the disease
in the body, he said. ‘‘The
organism has not been found
directly in any tick or human
being in B.C.”

He said one of the testing
problems .for the Provincial
Laboratory is that . another
disease called relapsing fever
transmitted through ticks in the
Okanagan and Kootenay
regions is almost in-
distinguishable in tests from
Lyme disease. Because the B.C,
testing has been based on the
detection of antibodies to the
disease in the body, the positive
tests aren’t proof that anyone
actually has the disease.

“The organism has not been
found directly in any tick or
‘human being in B.C.,’* he said.

But he urged northwest
residents to be wary of ticks,
and avoid tick bites, as they can
carry other diseases as well.

“The right ticks are in B.C.
to carry. Lyme disease,*? he
noted. “Once they get infected
we could go from a borderline
situation to a real problem.”

_ ‘The disease can be treated ef-
fectively if caught early, Bower-
ing added. One of the first
symptoms is a large target-
shaped rash that moves around
the body and changes size.
Later inflamed limbs and other
arthritic symptoms develop,
which eventually become
_ chronic.

TERRACE — The’ number of:

passengers using the Terrace- [|
Kitimat airport is up for-the -

first three months of this year
compared to the same’ period
last year, says manager Darryl
Laurent.

He said passenger traffic in-
creased by approximately 6.5
per cent and fits in with a
forecast to have 109,000 people
pass through the airport by the
end of the year.

“The airport reflects the
economy of the area. If the
economy is doing well, the air-
port shows that. If the economy
doesn't, it shows that also,’”’ he
said. '

In January, 7,669 people
passed through compared to
7,076 for January of 1989 and
7,266 passed through in
February compared to 6,742 in
February 1989 while 9,161 used
the airport in March compared
to 8,634 for March of 1989.
