CASTLEGAR NEWS, August 14, 1983 Foreshore plan begins 117 nations sign|[. A comprehensive plan for the Crown foreshore along the West Arm of Kootenay Lake has commenced, according to an announce- ment by Mr. Frank Bertoia, Regional Director for the Kootenay Region, Lands and Housing Regional Operations Dvision. The plan area extends from Grohman Narrows east- ward to Procter and McEwen ‘Point on Queens Bay. The plan will identify and eval- uate options for the manage- ment and allocation of the foreshore that will resolve foreshore and related upland and resource use conflicts. The plan for the West Arm of Kootenay Lake is one of a number of plans being under- taken th h the Pro- plsnuleg program for Crown an Ministry of Lands, Parks and Housing Act and the Land Act require that the Crown land in the shorezones be administered in the public interest. Crown foreshore in- cludes all the land betwen the high water mark and the low water mark and extends out into the water body to in- clude the land under the water (the lake or river bottom) but does not include the water itself. Mr. Bertoia stated that the ministry has assumed a stewardship role in carrying out this ad- ministration and adherestoa “system view” as the basis for its decision-making res- ponsiblities. The complex of social and vince as part of an ongoing economic systems along with the biological and physical systems of the foreshore must all be d for in ‘This wil) include meeting with individuals and groups, and the planning process. Work in the plan is being co-ordinated by Lands and Housing staff in Cranbrook and Nelson with a number of other agencies also parti-- cipating by means of an inter-agency planning team.

For the initial stages of the Plan, the public is invited to provide input that will help to establish priorities for foreshore use. Information is requested from_ individuals and interest groups on fore- will shore issues, problems and special features in the West Arm that the Planning.Team should be made aware of.

He looked up to see his wife Sandy wave as she drove past on her way to town. Moments later, a mass of mud, logs and slash six metres high slid down a slope CSCU reports growth The cautious recovery that continues across the country is reflected locally in the growth of assets, loan demands and deposits report- ed by the Castlegar Savings Credit Union. In the first six months of this year, the credit union reports it growth of $8.2 million, \ growth of $2.9 million and increased member deposits of $2.6 million. Loans granted in the first six months of this year have almost doubled over last year. This year, the credit union granted $6.5 million in loans compared to $3.5 million in 1982. In fact, the month of June saw $1.9 million in approved loans — the highest level in several years. The actual funds that flowed through the Credit Union for the first half of the yar amounted to $119 million, compared to $91 million a Membership has also in- creased: This year the credit union has 222 members com- pared to 168 in 1982. The credit union is curr- ently facing a problem “and that is a healthy one,” com- mented General Manager Harold Webber, in that the loan demand generally exceeds incoming deposits. To offset this demand, the credit union has offered term deposit rates higher than market to attract new funds. “we could use another $2 million this month,” Webber added. “As long as the demand: is there, we will strive to meet it. HAROLD WEBBER . «. loan demands up WATCH FOR EXPO NELSON Sept.9-11 across the road and into Alli- ford Bay. Stratton stared in horror. His wife's blue Toyota was nowhere in sight. He radioed past the slide and someone told him the slide had missed Sandy. Slides are fact of life in the Queen Charlottes because of steep, unstable hillsides and heavy rainfall. But some environmentalists believe logging in the area makes the situation worse. The cause of the Aug. 2 slide that frightened Stratton is still being debated, but logging activity has not been ruled out. Preliminary findings of a ” federal- provincial study into the cause of slides in the Queen Charlottes indicates there are 3.4 times as many slides in logged areas of the ‘islands as in unlogged ares. RECORD MORE SLIDES Vincent Poulin, manager of the fish-forestry interaction program, said the findings indicate there are 12 land- slides recorded per square kilometre on logged terrain compared with 3.6 in unlogg- ed areas. The study followed a series of 18 mudslides in 1979 which swept down the slopes of Rennell Sound, dumping silt into Riley Creek, a major spawning groun The slides spawned a bitter dispute between the provincial ministries of En- | vironment and Forests and the Federal Department of Fisheries. Loggers were arrested and charged under the Fisheries Act, although later all charges were dropped and logging contin- ued after Premier Bill Bennett became involved. Forests Minister::Tom Waterland said in an inter. view Wednesday that fish aré now up for Expo_ VANCOUVER (CP) — Reid sald he fs in'the happy position of being selective about the remaining nations'to be signed up. : “Lhope we never. get to the stage of having to say to ce ape et Ae a ak we, arena, being, ralzly ‘want coenteies who can be successful with our theme and our venue.

EXPRESSES CONCERN “That's our gravest con- cern,” said Gotta, whose team has split its first four “Our guys are out- sized completely. We're going to need some help from playing Calgary assistant coach mA Hill. “They'll either fall apart or put it all together. I don't care if we win by a point. I just want to win this one.” For the Stamps to do that, their defence must bear the burden of harassing quarter- back Joe Adams and cover- whose team lost both its games against the Roughri- ders last year, is confident Adams can be rattled. “Guys like (Edmonton's Warren) Moon and (Winni- peg’s Dieter) Brock, they like tostay in the pocket and hold the ball as long as possible,” he said. “Blitz them and they'll burn you. But I think the blitz can upset Adams’ throwing patterns. I believe he can be hurried into throwing poorly.” The biggest worry for Cal- gary's defence is the mis- match between their defen- sive backs and recievers Robinson (six-foot-four) and DeFrance (six-foot-one).
