John Black, a club past president, maintains that rats at the present Ajax and township dumps are a- mong the largest in the world. Metro Toronto has a- greed to pay about $1,440,- 000 to dump up to 24 mil- lion tons of garbage in the township. Mr. Black said the gra- vel pits' are a refuge for wildlife. Deer and fox often frequent the areas, he said. "There are no rats or mice thriving in these ar- eas now. The hawks, owls and foxes keep these areas free of vermin," Mr. Black said. The proposed garbage sites will be at Concession 3 and the Liverpool Rd. and north and south of Conces- sion 5, half a mile east of Brock Rd. Mr. Black, who is also a member of Gun Club Pol- lution Committee, asks: "Will the present council, ten years from now, be re- membered as the one that brought the garbage to Pic- kering?" He claims the town- ship does not need Metro garbage "today, tomorrow or any other day in the fu- ture." Mr. Black wants to know whether or not the township and the Board of Health have looked into the possibility of the under- ground water streams in the area being poisoned by sepage. "Have they thought a- bout the air above being polluted by viruses being carried aloft by air currents passing over this open cess- pool of Metro refuse?" he asks. Mr. Black said that in British Columbia air sam- ples taken at many thou- sands of feet and several miles off shore contained germs. He said, according to reports, the germs were carried aloft by the wind blowing over sewage dis- posal plants and garbage dumps. "Do we really need to turn these areas, rich in po- tential for recreation facili- ties, a prime area for wild- lfe, into sad, messy, paper - strewn d i s e a s e ridden dumps?" Mr. Black asked. He said he wonders that once dumping starts if the doe and the fawn will stili walk timidly out of the woods and drink at the pol- luted spring. "Will the fox and her young still play in the sun- shine when all that sur- rounds them is refuse? The game birds and song birds will not come — only the rats, mice and flights of crows," Mr. Black said. He said the gravel pit areas should be returned to normal. "The gravel companies take from the land but put nothing back," he said. Mr. Black said there are gravel pits in Scarboro that are worked out. "Why can't Metro dump here (Scarboro). Perhaps it would cost seven cents a ton to put it there, or per- haps Scarboro doesn't want garbage at all. Why can't Metro keep their garbage in Metro where it belongs?" he said. The Pickering Rod and Gun Club, an organization dedicated to fight all pollu- tion, believes that irrepar- able damage will certainly result from the indiscrimin- ate dumping of Metro re- fuse in the township. Mr. Black said resi- dents living on the route the garbage will be trans- ported from Metro to the township should protest "when this dirty disease ridden stuff is hauled by the front steps of their fine homes." "Are the trucks air tight, so that germs cannot escape to pollute the air? Let us all sincerely hope that residents living on this pathway of refuse will fight this plan with their utmost capabilities," he said. He said township coun- cil seemed to be in a ter- rific rush to have Metro garbage dumped in Picker- ing. "Is Pickering Town- ship in a type of competi- tion with other localities over who is going to get the garbage. Is the council afraid someone else is going to bid lower and rob us of the privilege of re- ceiving Metro refuse and we will be out the pricely sum of six cents a ton de- livered?" Mr. Black asked.
