Last weeks’ decision,
by European scientists
responsible for wildlife
trade, is expected to hurt
the B.C. prizzly bear hunt
and guide-outfitters and
taxidermists.

European hunters kill
about 35 per cent of the
120 grizzlies killed each
year by foreign hunters.

Most who kill a grizzly
bring home the fur or head.

Environmental groups
are pressuring the federal
government to go a step
further and ban all exports
of grizzly heads or hides.

The provincial govern-
ment placed a three-year
moratorium on the grizzly
bear hunt last February in
the dying days of the
NDP’s term in power,

The new B.C. Liberal
provincial government this
summer lifted the grizzly
hunt ban in most parts of
the province.

Activists vowed to pur-
sie new avenues to thwart
the hunt.

CN bridge to be back on track today

A CN spokesman says rail traffic between Ki-
timat and Terrace should be restored later on
this evening.

Crews have been working around the clock
to repair a railway trestle damaged in an early
morning fire one week ago.

CN bridge specialists from Edmanton were
brought in to help repair the trestle, a 1,253-
foot-long structure built over Alwyn Creek, 6.6
miles south of Terrace.

A 200-foot portion at its southern end was
damaged in the fire. A rail grinding operation
taking place on the bridge is suspected to have
caused the fire, which is still under investiga-
tion, CN director of communications Graham

Dallas said.

The disruption in service was not expected
to impact production at Methanex, Eurocan
and Alcan, Dallas said. All three companies
have plants in Kitimat.

Between 50 and 60 rail cars a day ship
goods along the line from Kitimat.

The rail crew aboard a train from Kitimat
spotted flames as high as three feet leaping
from the south end of the bridge in the early
morning hours of Nov. 28.

They managed to stop the train in time,
coming to a halt 100 feet from the trestle.

Firefightérs were called to the scene at 4
a.m. to find the south end of.the trestle ablaze,

Thornhill deputy fire chief Wes Patterson said.

The height of the 72-foot tall structure ham-
pered efforts to extinguish the fire until later in
the morning, when it was determined it was
safe to get closer.

“We didn’t put anybody up on the structure
until daylight,” said Patterson.

Until then, firefighters doused the structure
with a combination of water and a foam agent
that helps water penetrate wood that’s been
ireated with creosote, Patterson said.

It took about six hours for Thorahill fire-
fighters and CN crews to put the fire out.

The S-shaped curved trestle was built in the
1950s.
