Source Water Protection (SWC) committee)

Hi everybody (wonder if the ppl of u @ the cottage with or without internet are the lucky ones...;)),

hope u enjoying the sunshine and the beautiful water of Canada's lakes and rivers - I have an addition to my previous post, came in yesterday with the U-news (www.ccamu.ca), in case you were wondering about the exact location in Plevna:


SOURCE WATER PROTECTION (SWC) COMMITTEE MTG, AUG 7TH, 1 PM

The next monthly public meeting of the Source Water Protection (SWC) committee will be held on August 7, 2008 @ 1:00 p.m in Plevna at the Clar-Miller Hall, 6598 Buckshot Lake Road, Plevna, Ontario.

The SWC reports to the ministry of the Environment (MOE) via their chairperson and is sanctioned through the 'Clean Water Act' to represent the Mississippi and Rideau watersheds.

This is an important meeting since a response from the MOE based on actions taken from a member inquiry and public input is on the agenda. The Ministry of the Environment will be making a presentation responding to the motions of the SPC passed in February regarding Uranium. There will also be representatives present from the local Health Unit(s) and Ministry of Northern Development and Mines.

Persons can book a five-minute time slot if they wish to address the committee. For more information on the SWP committee for our region and to see the meeting agenda (when posted) please see
