To Repair Construction Damage

$1.8 Million from B.C. Hydro

After a three-year wait,
the fish‘and wildlife branch is
finally getting $1.8 million from
B.C. Hydro to repair damage
from construction of the Seven
Mile Dam.

Work is expected to begin
in a matter of weeks on re-
viving the deer and other wild-

life habitat surrounding the
dam site and around access
roads to the site,

Fish and wildlife workers
are also pleased all the money is
to be used near the Seven Mile
dam. There was speculation the
provincial cabinet would put
the $2 million into general

revenue, giving only a portion
to repairing damage done by
the dam.

Speaking from his Victoria
office, habitat protection officer
Jim Walker said it was the
environment and land use com-
mittee of the provincial govern-
ment that made the decision to
spend the money at the Seven
Mile dam.

The major aim of the
branch, according to Walker, is
to buy and clear land to provide
winter grazing grounds for
deer. Because of the delay since
work on the dam began, he
said, the branch will.be able to
afford less of the needed pro-
perty.

“While we intend to buy as
much land as possible, our
buying power is less thanit was
two years ago,” Walker said.

The award was originally
ordered by B.C. Water Comp-
troller Howard DeBeck in early

1975. Members of the then °

government NDP, however,
questioned whether the sum
was sufficient, and sent the
question to the newly-formed
committee cabinet.

When Social Credit cabinet
members took over the com-
mittee, the question became

more one of where to spend the .

ordered payment rather than if
it should be increased.

Now, the original settle-
ment has been upheld and will
all be spent in the area where
the problem arose.

The money will be turned
over to the habitat protection
section of the fish and wildlife

branch. Representatives of the .

branch in Nelson will be
directly in charge of thé work
at the Pend Oreille River.

“We've” been given the
direction to proceed and we're
going to go ahead,” Dr. Gordon
Hartman said from the Nelson
office of the fish and wildlife
branch Wednesday.

Hartman said the fish and
wildlife branch will administer
a fund created by the award,

ut it will do so in consultation
"with several other branches, of
government. -

The public will algo be
involved, he said, through com-
mittee which will advise on
what work should be done.

Attendance -

More than 12,000 people—
nearly twice the number ex-

pected—attended the Selkirk:

Lions Trade Fair in the new
“arena April 16 and 16,

And although gate sales
‘are easy enough to record, fair
co-ordinator Walter Tymofie-
vich says it will take the Linas
two months to determine how
much profit, if any, the club
made,

“There will be a small pro-
fit, not a large one,”.'Tymo-
flevich said Tuesday. “We
spared no expense and got’
everything we could’ possibly
get our hands on.”

“We've had people come
back already to reserve booths
for next year,” he said. “All

pants right now is to hold off for
a while and we will get back to
them later, within a month."

Tymofievich said next
year's Trade Fair will have to
be even bigger, in order to
maintain public attention but
this year's fair was inevitable.

He said Castlegar is ‘a city
that responds” and the Lions
were fortunate to have such a
place to hold the fair.

“All we did was set the
wheels into motion,” he said.
“The participants put the rest
of the puzzle together.”

He: said the Lions were
particularly grateful to Comin-
co in Trail for the supplies it
donated and the technical
supervision it provided.

Tymofievich said one of the
areas in which the Lions may
spend the Trade Fair profits is
* the Kinnaird ball park, which
requires new bleachers and
lighting.

The Trade Fair started
quietly Friday afternoon as the
Kootenay Kiltie Pipe Band
piped a group which included
exhibitors, Lions and federal,
provincial, regional and muni-
cipal government representa-
tives into the arena.

Kootenay West MP Bob
Brisco described the event as
“industry for the people, of the
people and by the people” and
called the 70 exhibits “eye
openers for a lot of people who
believed the area has had little
to offer as far as trade is‘ ¢on-
veerned.” :

D'Arcy said he was glad to see

vincial government present be-

Castlegar Mayor Audrey
Moore said Tuesday she would
like the Trade Fair to become a
permanent, annual event.

“The Castlegar community
is located in an excellent place
for businessmen to draw a
population of 30,000 within a

Attendance for the fair
