Dear Nr. Pentland2

I am writing as a follow-up to our
meeting of
June 6, 1986 with George
Aldermaan, c't
Port C oquitlam respecting Baking
of
the Coquitlam Riveri yFlood
Protection project.
As you are aware, the City of
Port Coquitlam has
been pursuing the above-mentioned
project for quite
some time. The
good health and safety of
the residents of continued
theiz Municipality rests cn an
early completion of
this vital project. This is the
basis for the Councils
and dedication to
this issue and, to this concern
end,
they
are anxious to see
it underway in the very near future.
I would like to reiterate some of the
major points
made at our meeting.

One portion of the area requiring
flood
protection clans through
an
Indian
Reserve
and
second through the Provincially-owned
Colony
Farm property. Presently, neither
of these
two sections are scheduled for inclusion
in
the prcject. However, as we have been assured
bZ Nac Clark, Regional Director, Inland Waters
Directionate, under a Provincial-federal

project is complicated by
the necessity'o include both dyking and dam
operations. Initially, a study must be done
to determine the appropriate form of flood
protection for all sections of the system.
The actual design and construction of the
system will commence upon the completion of
the s tudy.
The Coquitlam River

The current Provincial-Federal Agreement
became effective October 10, 1905 and is
scheduled to terminate Narch 31, 1995. The
Coquitlam River project has been deemed viable
and has consequently been included as one of

the 11 projects to be undertaken through this
Agreement. A suggested time frame is:
commission the Initial Study of Operational
Requirements in the near future; contract out
the working drawings. and plans- 1 to 2 years;
commence construction- 3 to 4 years. This is
a rough estimate and is subject to change .
As per your direction, Alderman Laking will address
any further queries to Nac clark of your vancouver
Branch.
I trust that 1 have accuratly summarised our
meeting. Please contact me should you feel there
are any discrepancies.
I appreciate your attention to this matter and would
like to thank you for your time and co-operation .

Dear Mr. Farnworth
A couple of months ago I had the opportunity
of addressing
your =ommittee regarding the possibility
of
ccst
advertising for recycling in Port Coquitlam. At theharing
time«your
committee seemed willing to accept speci fic proposals.
I would
like to present one such proposal.

As you know, the Blue Bags that we use are a major source of
advertising. Preliminary results
agDsiey that we are
currently conducting «kiidicate thatof-thP~~ue,bags'are..one..of

Enterprises has almost exhausted
its
of blue bags for the
municipality of Port Coquitlam. We aresupply
hoping to purchase another
4&OOO-blue«bags;.at.-an .estimated-..coat ~f-.$ 100ga«'We request that
Port Coquitlam cost share this purchase on ag~gasuasifu I would
be willing to address either your committee or Council to present
the case for your involvement in this

':

promotional activity.

I would also like to take this
to bring you up
to date on a number of other events opportunity
concerning
the
recycl ing
program. SHARE Enterprises was successful in obtaining
some
federal funding (Challenge '86) for a summer project. This
is focussing on how best to market the recycling
project
One of the main activities is to survey 1,000 households program.
in Port
Coquitlam and Port Moody. This survey should provide us with
valuable information on who is and is not
in the
program; and why. We will also be using theparticipating
project
to
promote
recycling through a variety of other activiti«s.

to
hope
be able to bring this matter before you ingate
