Ald. Terry Rogers, chairman of council's works and services committee, said Tuesday that Barry Wood, head of the municipal section of the Environment Ministry's Waste Management Branch in Nelson, told the committee last week the city can prosecute the dumpers under the Waste Management Act The courts can impose fines of up to $50,000 for illegal dumping, Rogers said during Tuesday's council meeting, although he later agreed that such stiff fines would likely be imposed only in the most severe cases of illegal dumping However, it’s apparent the city is ready to start using the law in an attempt to end the dumping in the area which several times has been described as an **eyesore.”” “All we need is a decent description of people dum ping down there,’ Rogers told council, He said tickets and fines of up to $100 under the Liter Act do not preclude prosecution and the additional fines under the Waste Management Act ““L think if the offence is great enough, they'll decideto prosecute legally under the Waste Management Act and that one could cost lots more,” Rogers told reporters after the council meeting. Earlier, Rogers said Wood told the works and services committee last week the city could appoint a litter control off ~r orask the RCMP, the Waste Management Branch’s conservation officer in Castlegar or city works crews to patrol the area Wood also said the city can add the words “Subject to prosecution under the Waste Management Act’ to its ‘No dumping’’ signs which have already been posted in the area, Rogers tpid council As well, Wood stated he is aware of a proposed grant aided program to clean up unauthorized garbage sites and will get the city more information, Rogers said. Ald. Doreen Smecher, a member of the works and ser vices committee, said Wood indicated the money in the proposed program would be intended for “rehabilitation of dumpsites in addition to cleanup ‘He (Wood) suggested we rehabilitate the area the city owns,"’ Smecher said. ‘‘Make the land usable to prevent dumping from recurring.’ CASTLEGAR, BRITISH COLUMBIA, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 28, 1989 over dumping | A plan to rehabilitate the city-owned land in the area courage recreational use of the site, Smecher said. “We would be setting a good example, and through that might be eligible for some grants to help us," she said Rogers said the Environment Ministry would allow other property owners in the area to use ‘*inert materials"” as fill if they also wanted to rehabilitate their property. He noted that the property owners in the area — even though they are not responsible for the dumping — ‘‘could be held responsible to clean up what's on the property.’ Rogers, Smecher and director of engineering and public works Kevin Lagan are scheduled (o tour the area again with Ron Mickle of the Waste Management Branch this week WEATHERCAST The outlook Friday but a return to unsettled conditions tor the weekend 3 Sections (A, B & C) Storm disrupts By GUY BERTRAND Staff Writer The storm which swept through the Castlegar area Monday left some people without power, others without water and some without a garden A mixture of rain, hail and lightning gave local people a taste of everything nature could dish out Bill Earl Zilkie, weather services specialist with the Castlegar Weather Office, said the varied conditions throughout the area are common. “I's typigal ef this particular weather pat'ign,”’ Zilkie said. ‘Some reported in tinued outside ower, water received no hail at all although it was other precipitation recorded at the airport was 9.7 millimetres Residents of Blueberry Creek weren't getting any water at all inside their homes while a downpour con- Kavaloff, Blueberry Creek Irrigation District, said there must have been, ‘‘a tremen- dous cloudburst up in the mountains,” causing a shutdown of the water sup- ply to Blueberry homes.
