“Castlegar s Proposed Lagoon

Castlegar's village council has
no intention of backing up in its
decision to construct a lagoon to
serve the village's new sewage dis-
posal system,

That was made abundantly
clear last week by Castlegar repre-
sentatives who attended a special
mecting of the Union Board of
Health, called on 24-hours notice
by chairman G. S, Rust of Kinnaird
fo consider Columiba river pollu-
tion.
“I don't think there is any

Intention of’ the Castlegar council
to retract in any way the action
it has taken,” declared Comm, R.
, Maddocks.

Comm. Maddocks' stand back-
ed by Comm. Leo Bosse and Comm,
Gwilym Hughes, was the only de-
finite outcome of a 2%-hour ses-
sion marked by a series of almost
violent verbal exchanges among
various municipal members of the
hoard or members of councils.

While the meeting technically
had heen called to consider the

issue of Columbia river pollution,

Comm. Hughes and Maddocks
tied up the meeting for long pe-
riods while they made several at-
tempts under the rules of order
to have the statement tabled or
killed.

The meeting very nearly ended
20 minutes after it had opened,

his opinion, Dr. James McAnulty,
the board’s medical director and
area MHO, should ‘issue the pro-
posed press release as his own
work, |

He said he didn't think dele-
gates should endorse a statement
condemning the Castlegar lagoon
until they had had time to discuss
the situation with their respective
councils.

. However, there: could be sensi.
ble and profitable discussion of the
issues raised in the statement but
“if there are any more of these
aspersions ‘and innuendoes, I tell
you that I am going.to leave.”

Mr. Hargrave didn't leave but
neither did he see his wish that
personal affronts should, cease ful-
filled.

At the end of ‘the meeting,
many delegates had- asked to be
