BIOSOLIDS PUBLIC MEETING

on Monday June 21,2010 5- 8pm. at St.Jacobs Community centre, 31 Parkside Dr., St. Jacobs.
This notice appeared in the Woolwich Observer recently. All you want to know and probably more will be presented at this public meeting and others in Kitchener and New Dundee on Tuesday and Wednesday, June 22 & 23/10.

At this point in time, my understanding is that yes we need some sort of master plan to safely dispose of biosolids, however having seen their disposal on local fields around West Montrose, I'm less than impressed. My suspicion is that as usual the Ontario Ministry of the Environment have environmentally sound rules and regulations in place but minimal supervision and accountability to ensure that all parties follow them. Is there not a better place to put biosolids, than on our fields, whether for cattle corn or human consumption?
