(the. private company taking care of road maintenance) to keep an eye on it,’ said ' regional highways manager Jon Buckle. Buckle added that a. channel dug into the rock higher up its face to drain water away before it can freeze into overhanging chunks is working. As well, the ministry has begun planning a majer project to divert the highway from that. spot by moving it.closer to the river. “In that location we would eliminate a level (railway) cross- ing and an avalanche path,” ” said Buckle, . . - Work would involve filling in a section of the Skeena River . for the new highway path and _. the ministry“has commissioned an environmental study to ex- amine the impact, he added. “With this project there are three good reasons — the car- wash, the avalanche path and ° the railway crossing — to make it a priority. You might see it built in three to five years,” Buckle said. _ Judith O’Morrow TERRACE KINSMEN CITIZEN OF THE MONTH Judith O'Morrow has been chosan for har contibution of volunteer time to the Terrace Youth Centre, she is the centres volunteer co-ordinator.
