Five local truckers lined their rigs up at the entrance of the mill and set up an “information line’? which saw the men stopping and talking to drivers of each truck that entered. “It’s not a picket line or anything, we won't be forcibly stopping any truckers from going in or out,”’ said organizer Rob Wilson at the mill yesterday “It’s an information line for all the truckers coming in. It’s up to them if they want to shut down and support it (the strike). The only way we're going to get what we want is if we all sup- port it,"’ he said Wilson said local truckers would continue to park at the mill until a set- tlement was reached, but no. trucks were parked there today and he couldn't be reached for comment at his home this morning. Celgar industrial relations manager Ron Belton said there were no trucks parked at the mill entrance when he left work at, 4 p.m. yesterday and none when he came to work this mor- ning Belton said he didn’t know if the truckers planned any further action or if the current action had ended. Wilson said the information line had nothing to do with Celgar, only that it seemed like a good place to contact other truckers. Meanwhile, the strike is back in high gear in the lower. Mainland. The latest attempt at a settlement received a unanimous thumbs down at a meeting of more than 1,500 truckers Tuesday night. The truckers didn’t even bother using ballots han- ded out at a fairground in the Van- couver suburb of Surrey. Instead they shouted down. The proposed settlement would have set a minimum hauling rate of $35 an hour with a further hike of $40 by January. The truckers say they can’t wait — they want the $40 rate now. Although the independent owner- operators rejected the contract offer, they won’t be blocking border crossings again. There will be new forms of protest, said Garnet Zimmerman, a spokesman for the Teamsters union, which supports the Western Owner- Operators Association. Truckers don’t want to hold people hostage at the side of the roads, said Zimmerman. However, he said organizers of the walkout are calling on truckers to set the offer Westar says band is trespassing PRINCE RUPERT (CP) — The Gitwangak band’s . blockade of Westar Timber’s mill in northwestern British Columbi amounts to CASCADE AUTO DISH “ren 4.94 1.8 kg.

STORE HOURS: Monday to Saturday 9:30 a.m.-5:30 p.m. Thursday and Friday 9:30 a.m.-9:00 p.m. THE BEGINNING PRICE IS JUST Waste plan announced VANCOUVER (CP) — Environ- ment Minister John Reynolds wants to halve the amount of garbage going to landfills by the end of the decade. “‘There’s a great deal of work to be done and we've only got 10 years to reach the target,"’ Reynolds told a news conference Tuesday. “We're in a race. Every new truckload taken to a municipal lan- dfill quickens that pace.” Reynolds was announcing details of the first year of the province’s five- year, $150-million municipal solid waste plan He said the government will spend more than $13 million on recycling programs this year. Reynolds said proposal calls will be made for collecting and disposing of tires, batteries and disposable diapers, and for construction of a plant to process discarded cans. Reynolds said he expects most British Columbians will be recycling within the next two years. More than 2.4 million tonnes of municipal solid wastes are generated in British Columbia each year. Most is dumped in landfills Reynolds also said he plans to publish a list of the province's worst polluters this month “It will set up a bit of a contest between people to see who can get off the list,"” he said. ‘'We issue thousan- ds of permits and it’s a very small per centage of those who are outside the permits.”’ trespassing, Westar lawyer Brian Wallace said Tuesday. Officials of the forestry company appeared in B.C. Supreme Court in Prince Rupert to seek an injunction against the blockade at the Kitwanga planer mill, about 770 kilometres nor- thwest of Vancouver “This blockade amounts to trespassing and nuisance is pleaded,” said Wallace. Gitwangak Indians began their protest in mid-May, saying the forestry company has plans to close the operation. The mill is run by Westar on land leased from the Indian band. Band members are upset by 35 layoffs from the mill since Christmas. Judge Robert Errico heard arguments from lawyers for both sides and is set to rule today on the in- junction Chester Williams, a mill worker, said there are now about 27 em- ployees left at the operation. The company said the layoffs stem from difficulties in obtaining log sup- plies. Westar will seek damages for inter- ference in its business operations, said Keith Spencer, a company president Michael MacDonald, representing the Gitksan people, said Westar’s lease is not valid because it wasn't signed by the Indian Affairs Minister Before the blockade, Westar had considered a joint venture with the band for the mill vice- up protests at highway scale stations, travel in convoys, or gather their rigs at shopping malls to tell the public about their wage demands. Teamsters official Don McGill blames the breakdown on several large trucking companies, saying the firms have refused to come to the bargaining table. About one-third of the 180 trucking companies in the dispute have been represented during negotiations. Government-appointed mediator Bryan Will ratification meeting that neither optimistic nor pessimistic. McGill said the truckers want to see all firms included in the contract because the independents ‘‘are not going to work even if those 63 (com- panies) agree to pay the $40... .
