TERRACE — Regional native and- environmental groups are supporting an appeal to block’ Canadian National Railways’ proposed spraying of herbicides _ along its tracks from Smithers to Prince Rupert. The Kitsumkalum band, Carrier-Sekani Tribal Council, Gitksan and Wet’suwet’en hereditary chiefs, and the en- vironmental groups ‘Save-the- Bulkley and ‘the Skeena Society to- Oppose Pesticides are back- ing the appeal filed by the United Fishermen and Allied Workers Union, according to Arnie Nagy, the union’s Prince Rupert vice-president, The. permit approved. in November allows CN to spray ‘Band; mill talk on spraying” TERRACE — The Kit- sumkalum band has agreed to postpone its appeal of Skeena Cellulose’s herbicide spraying permit in exchange for the com- pany agreeing not to spray this year, a company spokesman says.” “t's an understanding that they'll postpone the hearings and we'll have continuous dialogue with them,” said the herbicides Karmex and Glean in -a six-metre swath along the track and to -hand- spray Spike 5G around signal. _ Switches and buildings. Nagy — ‘said herbicides Roundup and Simmaprim-80w are also in- cluded in the permit. Herbicide opponents say the- chemicals — used to control . weed growth along the track — can pollute the water supply, kill fish and wildlife, and ultimately contaminate the foad chain. Several groups came together in 1987 to defeat a similar CN application. So far no date has been set in the current herbicide dispute, but Nagy said he believes the hearings as early as April. **] think with all the interest being shown it will probably be public,’’ Nagy said. He said the fishermen’s union is concerned about potential damage to fish stocks in small creeks along the line. The groups don't believe — spraying herbicides is necessary to control growth. ‘We're pushing for alternative methods,”’ Nagy said. He called Canadian Pacific Railway’s use of steam and borax on Vancouver Island an environmentally acceptable way of killing weeds along track. The northwest groups want CN to consider using that method appeal will be held by public. ‘. instead of chemicals.: o Skeena Cellulose forestry super- visor Archie MacDonald, The appeal was to have gone ahead in public hearings set for this week. Skeena Cellulose wants to spray plots north of Kitsumkalum -lake to prepare sites for reforestation. MacDonald said the company also agreed not to go ahead with the herbicide spraying until 1991 because it wouldn’t get any Krause gets position TERRACE — Joyce Krause has been hired as director of patient setvices -at Mills Memorial Hospital, replacing Shirley Bentley who continues as direc- . tor of nursing.
