He called for revival in
Terrace; but I doubt we

waxes; when the Devil
- wanes, when .people re-
pent, God’s judgement
wanes also. The reason
you believe this is the age
of grace is because the
Christian Church has
made it such during the
last 1900 years or so. But
people today have cast
their hope upon secular
humanism and | com-
munism. Those who serve
_ the Devil get the Devil’s
judgement.

Jesus said in Matthew 11:
“But, whereunto shall I

like children sitting in the

markets, and calling unto

their fellows, and saying, |

-We piped unto you, and
you have not danced; we

have not lamented. It shall

rison said.at the. meeting

that option will not stand

on economic grounds

unless B.C. Hydro pays
for -construction of . the

transmission lines as far as
‘103 kilometers

Failing that,-he said, Gulf

‘mine,

Morrison was question-
ed closely . regarding the
environmental impact of
stack emissions from a
coal-burning power plant.
He replied that Gulf
would use a fluidized bed

burner designed by Pyro-_

Power, a California com-
pany that he said has
guaranteed the generator
will meet the most strin-

gent B.C. regulations for

sulphur - and nitrogen

‘ emissions. .
Projected sulphur diox-

ide, the primary ingredient
in acid rain, will amount

to six tons per year, he

said, compared to 75. tons
annually: from the com-

bined output of the pulp

mills in Prince George.
Deposition. quantity in the
area of the mine will
average six kilograms per
hectare annually, or about
15° grams per square
meter. ‘‘A chocolate bar
weighs about 50 grams, to

give you an idea,”’ he said.
“There will be no signi-

ficant impact on air quali-—

ty. 33
Morrison also contend-
ed the effect on water in

_ the area will be negligible.

There will be no signifi-
cant discharge of suspend-
ed solids, no impact on
water chemistry, and a
negligible effect on the
limited fish population

- around the mine.

‘the mine will be located
near the headwaters of
rivers tributary to the
Stikine, Nass. and Skeena
Rivers.

‘Morrison noted that the

coal preparation: process.

to be used is physical, not
chemical and consequent-

ly there will -be ‘no

discharge of toxic

chemicals into the | en- -

vironment. The strongest
stack emissions will be in

precipitates.

told the Terrace meeting
that the mine: is. not

“It’s going. ‘to be. a

‘ government decision -
- whether. the road {into the

mine) will be open or
closed,’? Morrison stated.
“Gulf's position. i is that if
the road is going to be
open we don’t want to be
‘the policemen.”’

“Terrace resident Gil
Payne, a member of the -

B.C. Wildlife Federation
(BCWLF), indicated that

due to activity at the mine
the region’s only conser- .

vation officer had ‘been

- moved from Cassiar to

Dease Lake. Payne said a

request from the BCWLF -

that Gulf: supply the . of-
ficer with an - all-terrain
‘vehicle had’ received -no
reply. Morrison said ‘he
was not familiar with the
request and would look i in-
to it.

‘Morrison: was also
unable to say who would
be paying for construction
and’ maintenance of the
new section of road, Gulf
or the B.C. government.

. “Infrastructure support
funding is being discussed
with ‘the government, ‘but :

there’s no. commitment,” ”
he said..
