HIGHLAND CREEK TREATMENT PLANT PETITION
OUR EFFORTS CONTINUE: SIGN THE CCRA'S
ONLINE PETITION OR
PAPER PETITION
AND
EMAIL US TO TAKE A LAWN SIGN !
Read the CCRA's
Action Plan against Trucking of Sludge to find out how to help
our next steps.
The Highland Creek Treatment Plant multihearth
incinerators are at the end of their service life. As a result, the
City of Toronto’s Biosolids Master Plan (BMP), a six-year study and
environmental assessment, recommended that fluidized bed incineration
be the preferred method for processing future solid waste at the
Highland Creek Treatment Plant. In May 2011, however, City Council went
against staff recommendation and voted to pursue trucking of sludge.
Please sign the C.C.R.A.’s
online petition or
paper petition that asks City
Council to reconsider its decision to truck solid waste at the Highland
Creek Treatment Plant or at minimum
require a comprehensive and consultative environmental
assessment of this method.
More information on this
issue and petition can be found in the
November 2011 Conservation Report.

CCRA William A. Dempsey Scholarship
Once
again, the CCRA is offering the William A. Dempsey Scholarship in
recognition of the work and activities of Mr. William Dempsey who passed
away in August 2008. Mr. Dempsey was a long time resident of this
community and epitomized what it means to be an active, caring, and giving
member of society both in his professional and personal life. The award
will go to a student who lives in our community and is graduating from a
secondary school and going onto a post-secondary school (college,
university or trades school). The candidate may attend any secondary
school, not necessarily in our community, but must reside in our community
and have 2011 CCRA household membership. The $1,000 scholarship will be
credited directly towards the tuition fees of the successful applicant.
The
deadline is Tuesday, April 24th, 2012. Click on the logo below to download
the application.
