Terrace amateur (geologist
Margaret Vanderberg will con-

duct the information session in-

preparation for a hike through
the crater area, located north of
Terrace near Aiyansh, scheduled
for Oct. 4. She noted that atten-
dance at tonight's discussion,
which will cover safety factors,
is mandatory for anyone inten-
ding to participate in the hike.
‘The Tseax Lava Bed flowed
from a very small volcano hid-
den in the shale valley of Crater

Creek, above the Tseax River,’’:

Vanderberg said. ‘The -nested
craters at the source of. the lava
are called the Aiyansh Volcano
by geologists, who name volcan-
oes for the nearest town. A
cinder cone 100 meters high with
a crater 25 meters deep sits in-
side the crater of a much larger
cinder. cone. Lava poured out
from fissures in the floor of the

_ large crater, which had’ already:

broken apart. There are several
vents in the solid lava nearby,
where: gasses blasted out of the
ground while the molten rock
was flowing, and these holes and
drip-shapes in. the rock tell the

dramatic story. The cone was:

built of cinders, or frothy lava,
fountaining out of one of these
vents.’” ,

‘“The whole interesting area is
full of deep cracks and unstable
formations,’’ she added.
Further information about the
hike is available from Terrace

B.C. Motor Carrier

fees up this month gg

Motor Carrier. fees in B.C.
were increased effective Sept. 14
Transportation’ and Highways
Minister Cliff Michael announc-
ed recently, = > poe

The changes are as follows:

Motor Carrier Certificates,
previously ranging: from $20 to
$48, depending upon passenger
or freight, will now cost a flat
fee of $75. The last increase oc-
curred in 1972. 60 0

"A licence application fee is be-:

ing introduced, which will cost
$100 and be non-refundable.
“This fee is to. offset the, grow:
ing administrative costs of ‘pro-
cessing applications,’’.the Min-
ister pointed out, It will also.ap-
ply to ‘transfers and licence
alterations. The $2 current fee
for transferring a. licence was
last set in January 1940, Fees for
alteration of a licence,: which

‘ usually means additional. oper-.

ating authority for the licencee,
were last increased in 1972 and

specified as maximum charge of .

$30.

Plate replacement fees are be-
ing increased to $75. ‘‘This fee,
set at fifty cents in 1940, is to en-
courage responsible use of the
certificate licencing system, and
to reflect the actual cost of
replacing the licence plate,’’ said
the Minister.

Permit fees for the temporary

operation of commercial: vehi-

cles: are also being increased. -- Bie

‘*These fees, which in some
categories have remained the
same since 1940, will no longer
be divided by passenger . and
freight vehicles or ‘carrying
capacity but on the -number of
days they are effective,’? the
Minister noted. ‘The increase will
rise from: the.old maximum. of

$30.

$35 ‘for’ carrying parcels and
other freight in passenger vehi-

cles. Previous express fees rang- |

- ed from’‘$25 to $50. Other fee in-
creases‘ involve transcripts from
hearings and photocopying.

The last major revision of
motor carrier fees occurred in

1972 and a significant number of -

the. fees have not been increased
since 1940,’’ the Minister point-

help offset the increases in ad-
ministrative costs for providing

closer to recovering the cost, of
this service. We have made ma-

jor. improvements in licence ad- |

ministration over the’ past
-several months as part of our ef-
fort to improve service to truck-
‘ing companies. The new fee

structure will help us make fur-

ther improvements,” he added.
