S « / aor? “40213 Maloney Pontiac Buick Columbia Ave., Castlegar Ducks Unlimited asked for help with marshland By CasNews Staff The Salmo Valley Wildlife Society is hoping to get Ducks Unlimited, a private, non-profit conservation or- ganization, to assist with the enhancement of marshland at Salmo. Alvin Coker, Ducks Un- limited’s chief biologist for the Kootenay region, re cently completed a prelimin- ary inspection of the prop- osed Salmo Valley Wildlife Park property located on the airport road five kilometres south of Salmo. During his inspection ani mals observed included three mallard drakes, a merganser hen with five chicks, a red tailed hawk, a yellow warb- ler, two white tail deer, a Great Blue Heron, and var. ious other wildlife, according to a prepared release. The water in the swamp area is at high level now, so Coker will return in a few weeks’ to do a preliminary reconnaissance of the swamp area, said the release. If Ducks Unlimited decides to assist with the enhance- ment of the marshland, the project will be much bigger than the wildlife society an ticipated If the organization be. comes involved there will likely be a setback dyke along the Salmo River to control the level of water in the marshlands. At present, during high water period in the spring, some of the homes of nest waterfowl are flooded. The control of the water level would also solve a flood- ing problem for people that live along the Airport Road, said the release. Ducks Unlimited is an international private, non profit conservation organiza- tion that was founded in 1938 and is dedicated to the per. petuation and increase of North America’s waterfowl resources, through restor. ation, preservation and cre- ation of prime breeding habi- tat Much of the funding for its Canadian projects comes from the U.S. Funding is mainly raised from donations by sportsmen, conservation- ists and concerned groups. The budget for Canadian projects this year is more than $39 million. Ducks Unlimited was in. volved in the construction of the dykes and controls for the Creston Valley Wildlife Management Area. Meanwhile the Salmo Wildlife Society was unable to obtain some bears for its wildlife park from the Uni. versity of B.C. The Kamloops Wildlife park, which already has ap- proved facilities, got the bears, said the release. The Salmo group is still planning to have a small zoo, museum, crafts booths and picnic sites on the park property.

Hosted by the Arrow Forest District Ministry of Forests FOR BLUEBERRY SCHOOL Fire protection turned down By CasNews Staff The City of Castlegar has turned down a request from the school board to provide fire protection for Blueberry Creek elementary school. In a letter made public at Mondy’s regular school board meeting, city clerk Ron Skill- ings says couneil policy pro- hibits the fire department from responding to calls out- side city limits. “Which was a little sur- prising to us because they do go to Selkirk College and the airport,” said secretary treasurer John Dascher. “We're planning on meet- ing with them and pursuing it.” Dascher added that he’s contacted Central Kootenay regional director Martin Van- derpol, who told him there's “a chance” the Robson fire department will go an extra mile out of their boundary and cover the Blueberry school. 7 8 «6 An editorial which ap- peared in Sunday's Castlegar News provoked the ire of at leat ‘one parent and a few trustees. The editorial suggested the District Parents Commit tee had “a lot of nerve” for recently saying it represents “a new breed” of parents who “feel a responsibility to be involved and see that their childrens’ educational needs are met. “It’s an attitude that bor ders on arrogance,” said the editorial. Corinne Postnikoff, spokesperson for the parents committee, asked the super- intendent of schools if par. ents “were arrogant in their approach” when making a presentation to trustees June 10 at an education committee meeting. The presentation called for more parental involvement before “radical changes” such as the cancellation of noon time busing, closure of rural schools or elimination of lunch-hour supervisors were made. “I won't touch it with a 500-foot pool,” said Terry Wayling, schools superinten- dent. Trustees Kay Johnson and Lovette Nichvolodoff said they didn’t find the parents’ presentation objectionable. And trustee Rick Pongracz added: “I find the editorials in the Castlegar News are Salewski funding TRAIL (CP) — The pro- vincial government has with- drawn all funding for a 28- year-old physically- and men- tally-handicapped woman it wants to transfer to an ex- tended care ward from a home for the handicapped. The Human Resources Ministry stopped the $90 per diem for Gayle Salewski's physiotherapy and nurturing care on June 3. On Tuesday, it stopped her basic care payment of $63 a day. Since June 3, a bed has been held for Salewski in the extended care ward of Trail Regional Hospital. Trail hospital administra- tor Gary Kjolberg said Tues- day he had instructions to hold the bed until Tuesday. Kjolberg said an extended care bed costs $70 a day, but holding the bed empty “wasn't costing the hospital anything.” Her parents, Ada and Wilf Salewski of Trail, have been fighting the transfer their daughter from the En dicott Home in Creston, about 100 kilometres east by road, saying it will jeopardize her health. Norma Collier, president of the Kootenay Society for the Handicapped, said Tuesday the society has applied for a bank loan to continue Sal ewski's care in Creston. Collier and Saleswki's par. ents say the Endicott centre provides an atmosphere in which the woman is happy, and because she would be so unhappy at the hospital, the move threatens her health and possibly her life. Salewski has cerebral pal. sy and is mentally retarded. The dispute began last June when Human Resources officials said Salewski shoul be transferred because was considered medically fra gile and could not move her. self from bed to a wheelchair. The ministry said she be longed in an extended care ward, and funding for her care would come from the New mill on B.C. coast VANCOUVER (CP) — Makin Pulp and Paper Ltd. plans to establish a $235. million paper mill at Brit annia Beach, north of Van couver, the company said Tuesday in a news release The company, through its affiliate Makin Project In itiators Ltd., plans to develop coated and uncoated papers for use in magazines, period icals, glossy advertising fly ers and business forms. The wood, from aspen, will be chipped in plants in the Cariboo and processed at Britannia Beach along with softwood chips to provide raw material.

John Just was severely injured Jan. 16, 1982, as he and Janet Yvette Dunn, 28, of Toronto, were heading for Whistler to ski Their car was stuck in a traffic jam on the Squamish Highway when a boulder fell from a natural slope above a man-made rock cut and tumbled to the road. Madame Justice Beverley McLachlin dismissed the suit May 29, saying the case “raises the difficult question of the legal responsibility of a public authority for injuries which members of the public sustain in using highways.” A similar lawsuit was heard about the same time by county court Judge Stu Leggatt, who delivered his judgment June 6. He awarded Hans Wegener $67,500 from the provincial government Lawyers in the Attorney General's Ministry said they are waiting instructions from the highways minister on an appeal Wegener, 25, was a passenger in a car being driven on the Trans-Canada Highway near Lytton on May 22, 1983. He was asleep when a 14-kilogram rock fell from the cliffpthrough the windshield and struck him on the head. FACTS SIMILAR The two cases involved similar circumstances, but different judgments were rendered because the law distinguishes between government “policy” and govern ment “operations.” “A governmental body cannot be held liable . . . for its policy decision,” McLachlin said. “It is, however, liable for its operational function if negligence is established.” The government had never established as policy that slopes above highways be inspected for potential rockfalls, she said, nor had it set guides for dealing with problems if danger was perceived In the Wegener case, Leggatt said the area had a rock fall history, loose or dangerous rocks were removed by a crew in 1982 and 1983, and within weeks before the incident, a crew cleared the lower portion of the hill but not the area from which the rock that hit Wegener came.

Mon. - Set. 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sundeys Pulp deadline Nov. 14 VICTORIA — Forests Min- ister Tom Waterland has ex- tended the deadline for prop- .osals for the use of pulpwood and wood residues in a new pulpwood area in southeast- ern British’ Columbia. “A number of interested parties have requested this extension,” Waterland said. “I know it takes time to prepare a proposal for some- thing as big as a new pulp mill so I have agreed to put back the deadline until Nov. 14,” he added in a prepared release. The new Pulpwood Area includes all or part of 10 Timber Supply areas in the Nelson and Kamloops Forest Regions — Arrow, Boundary, Cranbrook, Golden, Inver- mere, Kamloops, Kootenay Lake, Merritt, Okanagan and Revelstoke. In inviting proposals, Wa- terland said he was seeking plans for the practical and economical utilization of sur- plus wood from the area such as pulpwood, logging and mill residues including wood chips, slabs, edgings, saw- dust, shavings and hog fuel. Consideration will be given to proposals from new com- panies and from those al- ready in the wood fibre pro- cessing business who plan to continue or expand existing or establish new Proposals received by the Ministry of Forests will now be available for public view- ing between Nov. 28 and Jan. 16 in Victoria, Vancouver, Kamloops and Nelson.
