eview asked:

With an investment of

Rod Cameron

Yes, but it would have to
be under the most strict en-
vironmental regulations and
it would have to be monitor-
ed 24 hours per day. { don't
‘see any difference than
when trains and trucks pass
through Terrace every day
containing hazardous mater-
lals. Providing everyone had
a hand in monitoring Its
operations (environmen-

_talists, etc.) It could be done.

[

built near Terrace?

Lioyd Wittkowski
Definitely not. We have so
much around us, like our
water supply and the en-
vironment that could be
harmed by such a project.

In court

In Terrace provincial court on
Monday, January 25 Clayton
Burger was fined $75 for causing

a disturbance in a public place -

and fined an additional $75 for
mischief in relation to private

property.

Lorne Wallington —

No. They would like to put
one In near my uncle’s place
in Ontario but they told peo-
ple In the surrounding area
that for five or six miles
around the site, no one could
sell produce, like potatoes,
milk from cows, or vege-
tables. The amount of jobs-it
creates has no significance
if it harms the environment.

Charile Lassard

No. A hazardous waste
disposal plant Is too risky for
our: area. Why put our en-
vironmental splendors at
risk? No one else seems to
be willing to approve such a
project. So why should we be
any differant?

$20 million and the creation
_... of 30 permanent jobs,

- would you be in favor

_ of having a hazardous

— waste disposal plant

Otto Lindstrom

Yes, if handled properly
and put in a place where it
wouldn't interfere with area
residents or important en-
vironmental areas. The town
has to have Industrial expan-
sion to survive and this
would be a prime opportunity
as long as proper precau-
tions are taken.

Terrace Review — Wednesday, February 17, 1988 §

Letter

Report misleading

To the Editor; |

Northwest College is conduct-
ing a self-evaluation as part of
the provincial procedure for
evaluation of colleges and in-
stitutes. One method we are us-
ing to do the self-evaluation is a
series of public forums at which
members of the public are in-
vited to comment on the Col-
lege’s operation.

It is not our intent to im-
mediately respond to comments
that are made at the public
forums. We intend to listen to
what people have to say; we will
then take the comments and
consider them along with
assessments of the College
gathered from other sources.
The outcome will be a self-study
report which will contain recom-
mendations to ourselves for im-
provements in the services to our
communities.

However, one comment that
was reported from the Kitimat
forum has to be replied to

has the potential to do the Col-
lege considerable harm. In the
February 4, 1988 edition of the
Northern Sentinel it was stated

To the Editor;

As an example of an inept and
poorly thought out government
policy, the so-called ‘‘new forest
policy” is certainly a case in
point — in particular the ‘‘new”’
stumpage appraisal formula.
The horror stories are numer-
ous. Large and small alike are
suffering, and we are only seeing
the tip of the iceberg.

The decision to levy this new
system across the
board will ultimately mean the
demise of what remained of the
small entrepreneur in the in-
dustry. The small operator
under the old system was already
paying his or her fair share. And
what about the agriculturalist,
who on the whole utilized any
profit from the harvesting of
timber to build a viable farming
operation. This has been wiped
out.

Even the big guy in the forest
industry, the multi-national for

because, if left uncorrected, it .

(the reporting was quite correct,
incidentally) that two students
from Kitamaat Village had been
refused transfer credit at univer-
sities for courses taken at North-
west College. We would like it
clearly understood that these
students had taken a business
administration course at the
College, which is not intended
for university transfer. The pro-
gram leads to a college diploma
which is provincially and na-
tionally recognized; however, it
has different objectives than a
university degree program. The
implication that was given that
college programs are not worth
anything at a university is
therefore quite incorrect. In
fact, all Northwest College
courses that are advertised as be-
ing for university transfer credit
are accepted as such: at -the
universities. There is no case to
our knowledge where any stu-
dent has been denied credit at
any university for a university
transfer course successfully
completed at Northwest College.
D.V. George

President,

Northwest Community College

Horror in the forest

whom we really shouldn’t have a
lot of sympathy, is affected.
Because of this the taxpayer will
ultimately suffer. Waste is on
the increase, as indicated by a re-
cent Globe and Mail news story
regarding the Queen Charlotte
Islands. This’ example will be
repeated all over the province.
Take the Westar operation in
Hazelton for instance — a hor-
ror story brought on by a stum-
page appraisal system that gave
no thought to actual on-the-
ground conditions and quality
before being initiated.

I didn’t think our primary
resource industry could
deteriorate much further from
the state in which I found it
when taking over as Minister in

. August 1986. I was wrong, and I

believe we haven’t yet seen the
worst.
