Kadlec, president of Taland Natural Gas, a! nounced June & that the company applied to the Brit- ish Columbia Utilities Com- mission for permission to embark on the major three- The submission is the cul- mination of more than a year’s preparation work by Inland personal which in- cluded extensive engineer- ing, marketing and financial studies, The application asks the commission to approve ex- tension of service to 100 communities and areas which ean not be served under the company’s present economic guidelines. Kadlec stated that one of Inland’s most important ob- jectives has always been to provide as broad ‘as service as possible. He pointed out that this policy now dovetails with provincial government objectives of making natural gas available to B.C. res- idents whenever and wher- © ever possible and with the federal government goal of reducing dependency on oil for heating, Kadlec said that while the distribution system expan- sion Program (DSEP) will require a capital outlay of approximately $70 million over the three-year period, impact on Indland's existing customer rates should be very minimal.

She said this infor- mation, as well as the regis- tration dates, will be ap- pearing in the Castlegar News at a later date, for those wishing to take advan- tage of the trips, At this point, each person will be allowed only two trips — more if others drop out, Correspondence included a letter from Mrs. D. Fulton, who is hopeful that the S.C.A. will receive a New Horizon Grant. It was reported that the recent Tea and Bazaar had been a financial success and thanks were extended to those donating baking, goods, finances, and labor for the event. As delegate to the Provin- cial Convention held recently in Vancouver, Mrs. J. Don- nan presented her report. She stated that there are 10,824 members of the S.C.A. in the province. Resolutions at the conventions concerned seniors’ low-cost housing, pensions, etc. Donnan noted that the regional reports were very informative. One item that was stressed was that one should not take any kind of pill without first reading carefully the direc. tions for its use. Donnan also viewed some of the many projects of the New Horizons program. Committee reports fol- lowed her presentation. As the next meeting will be the final one of the season, members decided to hold a potluck supper in their Cen- tre at 6:30 p.m. on June 18. This will be followed by'a . social evening with Mayor Moote showing some of her slides. Following-the adjournment of the meeting, refreshments and birthdwy cakes were served. anne WORKER NX Canad cludes a promise of financial assistance for the type of expansion Inland is propos- ing. First year extensions will encompass 85 communities and areas generally more feasible to serve from both an economic and construction schedule standpoint. The second and third years of the program will see service provided to areas and -communities further from the company’s existing sys- tems and will incur consid- erably higher capital cost. Kadlec stated that given Utilities Commission ap- proval, Inland is confident all the projects outlined in the submission can be completed own as scheduled. tut ‘Printmaker's Choice’ goes on display “A Printmaker's Choice,” a selection of newly-acquired prints to the permanent col- ‘lection of the Kootenay School of Art will be ex- hibited in the KSA Gallery from June 8 through Juno 12.
