City delays Bench rezoning

THE PROSPECT of a small liquefied natural gas (LNG) project being built near Kitimat offers a major benefit for the northwest.

Should Douglas Channel LNG go ahead, it will take up all of the current surplus capacity in the Pacific Northern Gas pipeline which stretches west from Prince George.

Because the pipeline is now under utilized, current Pacific Northern Gas residential and other customers now pay the highest gas transportation costs in the province to finance the utility’s pipeline.

But should Douglas Channel LNG proceed, its payments to Pacific North-ern Gas to transport gas to its facility will lower those rates for all users.

Dan Woznow, a vice president for Calgary energy company AltaGas, which is both a partner in the Douglas Channel project and the owner of Pa-cific Northern Gas, says it’s too early to put an exact dollar figure to those savings. “But something in the order of 25 per cent in [delivery] rates is to be expected,” he said of the anticipated reduction.

Northwestern residential gas users now pay a delivery rate of $11.867 a gigajoule compared to a lower main-land Fortis utility customer who pays $3.547 a gigajoule and a Pacific North-ern Gas customer in Fort St. John who pays $3.471 a gigajoule.

Lower gas rates possible

TERRACE CITY council has postponed a rezoning decision for a piece of property on the bench after hearing protests by nearby residents.

A Vancouver developer who bought the 5.28 acres on the top of Lanfear Hill last year wants to build up to 69 duplex or townhouse units but residents say that kind of jump in density has them worried about traffic prob-lems and about stability of the hill.

Jim Checkley who lives adjacent to the property and collected signatures to present

to council during a rezoning hearing held last night, said “there is more than just a ca-sual interest in what is going to happen up here.”

He said that residents want to see the city come up with a traffic plan for the Thomas/McConnell intersection at the top of Lanfear and for the adjacent Cooper/Thomas inter-section before allowing big developments on the bench.

“It is a tremendous bottleneck and an un-believable hazard,” Checkley said, explain-ing that the hill cannot handle more traffic.

He also cited concern that the project

could lead to more erosion of the hill.Other residents expressed similar con-

cerns and also were unhappy that the devel-oper had chosen not to attend the hearing nor make any plans for the development public.

Marilyn Fell told council that residents on the bench had chosen to live in that location so that they wouldn’t have the high-density atmosphere of downtown and she felt that council was not listening to those concerns.

“The public hearings are called, but the public is not being heard, the developers are being heard,” she contended.

The city has taken the position that this

type of development is not widely available on the residential bench area of the city and it would help Terrace meet housing needs.

The land was rezoned from its AR2 ag-ricultural designation to R1 residential last year in accordance with bylaw update mea-sures. On the table is an application by the developer to have the property rezoned once again to an R3 low-density, multi-family residential designation.

The decision on this application was ta-bled until council next meets July 13.

Bunkhouse blaze called ‘mischievous’

STAFF PHOTO

FIREFIGHTERS DIRECT water from a fire engine onto the blaze at the old CN Rail bunkhouse June 20 in what is being called a “mischievous” fire. There were no injuries.

A BLAZE that gutted a former CN Rail bunk-house on Atwood near the train tracks is being labelled as “mischie-vous” by the Terrace fire department.

A member of the public called the fire department to report that flames had ignited in the building, which is now owned by the Best Western Terrace Inn, just around 1 p.m. June 20.

Terrace and Thorn-hill firefighters respond-ed, bringing out about 35 firefighters to battle the blaze with a ladder truck and three pumper trucks.

“As far as we’re concerned, we believe it started by mischief. There’s no power, no

electricity, no gas, no-body was supposed to be in there. There’s no reason for it to start on fire,” said Dave Jeph-son, a member of the fire department who in-vestigated the fire.

“Witnesses saw peo-ple leaving when the fire started,” he added, saying that no one was in the building during the fire.

Since the build-ing was old and had not been maintained, the blaze took off right away, he said.

About halfway thru, a crew went into the building to knock down some of the west side and fans were set up, in what is called positive pressure ventilation, to blow air toward the fire

which keeps it away from that part of the building.

“Being able to pres-surize the west end pushed the smoke and heat and gases back and slows the fire coming to that fan,” he said.

“It could fan the flames where it is, but slows it down from coming that way.”

All together the four trucks had hoses pump-ing out water that prob-ably amounted to put-ting 40,000 gallons of water on the fire.

Firefighters were on scene for about five to six hours to ensure the fire was completely out and then they’d return every two to three hours to check for hot spots with the thermal imag-

ing cameras, Jephson added.

The former Totem Press building right behind the bunkhouse

didn’t suffer any dam-age.

Jephson said the building will be torn down as soon as an ex-

cavator gets there.Firefighters appre-

ciate it when someone phones in a fire which is just as good as a fire

alarm, said Terrace fire chief John Klie.

“The town depends on people like that,” he said.

A6 www.terracestandard.com OPINION Wednesday, July 1, 2015 Terrace Standard

Government apolo-gies may sooth historical hurts, but they don’t al-

leviate a single circumstance contributing to the growing number of disappearances and murders of aboriginal women.

Successive studies and inquiries, the latest in 2006 chaired by Missing Women Inquiry Commissioner Wally Oppal, made a dozen rec-ommendations. So far, none have been put into play.

The glib demand from all quarters for a national public inquiry only stalls govern-ment. We need to be doing, not twiddling our thumbs hoping for action that has lit-tle prospect of materializing if history is any guide.

Noteworthy, in the U.S., less than two weeks after nine black parishioners were shot dead in a church, citi-zens have pushed legislators to at least begin talking of removing the Confederate � ag from South Carolina’s capitol, a step that required a two-thirds vote just to talk about doing it.

And � ve major chains including Walmart, Sears, eBay and Amazon have re-moved all products display-

ing a Confederate � ag.Yet here in Canada, fol-

lowing the disappearance or murder of more than 1,200 aboriginal women (32 more murdered and 11 more miss-ing since 2013 alone!) the best our elected representa-tives have done is study the issue (at great expense and passage of time), and � le re-ports on dusty shelves, while we resignedly watch for gov-ernments to take concrete steps.

In the words of Clarence Louie, chief of the Osoyoos band, “If you’re waiting for government to move, you’ll wait forever.”

Chief Louie’s got that

right. Oppal’s 2006 study recommended setting up a seven-bus service along the 724 kilometres of Highway 16 from Prince George to Prince Rupert, for women without a car. Have you seen a bus yet? Neither have I.

Another recommendation has been to establish more safe houses. Across Canada only 44 safe houses exist to serve as refuges for battered women and children from 633 communities. Many communities are remote and distant from each other. Leaving an abusive partner is even more dif� cult in these places than it is for a woman residing in a metropolitan area with buses, taxis, and close-by neighbours.

Can you picture Canada’s coffee lovers limited to 44 Tim Hortons outlets in our vast country? Fat chance. We even sponsored a Tim Hortons in Afghanistan for our troops. Yet we can’t even begin to fund another safe house for families � eeing abuse!

On June 19 RCMP up-dated their progress inves-tigating this scourge. Their solved murders reveal that 90 percent of murdered women know their murderers who

tend to be family, or men with criminal records.

That day CBC inter-viewed Dawn Lavell Har-vard, interim president of Native Women’s Association of Canada. She, too, reiter-ated the call for a national public inquiry.

But when reporter Terry Milewski bluntly asked, “What more do we need to know?” her eyes darted side to side as though seeking a prompt, aimlessly � apped her hands, and sputtered, “We need a national public inquiry.” She voiced no con-crete examples of what more we need to know.

We already know aborigi-nal women are four times more vulnerable to violence than others, and why. Typi-cally victims exist in abusive households, are poor, have substance abuse problems and engage in high-risk ac-tivities.

The safety of aboriginal women and girls “is a re-sponsibility that should be shared by everyone includ-ing, of course, the commu-nities themselves,” RCMP Deputy Commissioner Jan-ice Armstrong told a news conference. I don’t see a na-tional public inquiry helping.

Action needed, not an inquiry

ESTABLISHED APRIL 27, 1988

IT’S always a bit depressing to con-sider that too many younger Cana-dians, it seems, equate Sir John A. Macdonald with the fast-food chain of a similar name (but with a differ-ent spelling) than with his status as being a prime Father of Confedera-tion.

Along with Sir George-Étienne Cartier, the pair maneuvered, out-maneuvered, argued with and � nally convinced enough of their peers to join together the British colonies of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Canada (which was then divided into Ontario and Quebec) into the single country of Canada on July 1, 1867.

Other jurisdictions followed (Brit-ish Columbia joined in 1871) to cre-ate the modern Canada of today with 10 provinces and three territories.

The country does have a lot to an-swer for with its treatment of Chinese immigrants in the early years, in-ternment of citizens of Japanese de-scent during the Second World War, internment of citizens of Ukrainian descent during the First World War and now the story of First Nations youth through the revelations of the Truth and Reconciliation Commis-sion.

But it’s the ability of Canada to � rst recognize the above dark mo-ments of its history and then repair the damage that was caused that makes it the country it is today.

Happy Canada Day.And for those old enough to re-

member, a hearty Dominion Day as well.

The Mail Bag

When the LNG project FIDs, then build it

Terrace Standard Wednesday, July 1, 2015 VIEWPOINTS www.terracestandard.com A7

The Q: When is an FID (Final Investment Deci-sion) not an FID?

A: When it has con-ditions attached.

What I’m talking about is Petronas’ announcement last month that the go-ahead on the Pacific NorthWest LNG plant on Lelu Island near Prince Rupert is subject to two conditions.

With an unspoken third one.Okay, I will be accused of

splitting hairs here, but my point is that FID has always meant the absolute green light for any proj-ect and what Petronas served up was not that.

Cast your mind back to the Kitimat aluminum smelter mod-ernization project where right from the first announcement by Alcan – later to become Rio Tinto Alcan – there were three condi-tions that had to be met before the board would even be asked to ap-prove the project.

That really is where Petronas’ Pacific NorthWest LNG sits as of today.

Having got that off my chest, there is no question this is en-couraging news.

The first condition is that the BC legislature approve the proj-ect development agreement that lays out the provincial royalty and taxation rates Petronas and partners will face over the long-term.

With the Liberals’ comfort-able majority that’s a foregone conclusion requiring only that the legislature be recalled to take the necessary vote.

The province is answering that by recalling the legislature July 13 for what should be a short ses-sion.

Number two is that the federal environmental assessment results in a recommendation that the fed-eral Conservative government ap-prove the project.

That’s likely to be a bit trick-ier – witness the June 2 request by the environmental agency that Pacific NorthWest provide still more information concerning the project’s potential impact on fish

and fish habitat.I am sure the two parties will

get there eventually, but the time that will take is probably longer than the optimists are saying.

Government approval will al-most certainly not come until af-ter October’s federal election.

Which takes us to the unspo-ken condition which is the tricki-est of all: First Nations endorse-

ment of the project.Back in May the Prince Ru-

pert area Lax Kw’alaams were offered a benefits package that would have seen them receive $1.15 billion over 40 years.

The members unanimously rejected the offer, not on the grounds it wasn’t enough cash, but because they are convinced that locating the plant, as current-ly configured, on Lelu Island will harm the immediately offshore Flora Bank which they describe as important salmon habitat for Skeena River runs.

That despite the fact that Pa-cific NorthWest LNG had already made changes to its proposed off-load infrastructure which they obviously thought would ease Lax Kw’alaams’ concerns.

I get the feeling that the only thing that will convince Lax Kw’alaams is a major rejigging of the plan which will mean more studies and potentially more ex-pense - and certainly more time before a real FID.

But at least this is the first sign

of a glimmer of light at the end of what has been a very long tunnel.

So what about the Kitimat projects?

As I have said before, I am convinced the AltaGas-led Doug-las Channel LNG project will be green-lighted before year’s end.

And I don’t think what’s hap-pening with the Rupert project will change anything as far as Chevron-Woodside’s Kitimat LNG and Shell’s LNG Canada are concerned.

They have their carefully planned schedules and to me there is nothing in the Petronas announcement that will spook them into changing those plans.

FOOTNOTE: as you read this I am trolling Stuart Lake in an effort to win the big prize in the annual and much anticipated Fort St. James fish derby.

As it says on one of my T-shirts that a fishing line has a hook on one end and an optimist on the other.

Happy Canada Day every-body.

AFFECTED PEPPER plant is curling up in response to spread of herbicides.

Herbicides destroying gardenDear Sir:

My tomato plants are dy-ing, my peppers are curling, my potatoes, the beans, the sunflowers and many more plants looks sick and curled and dying.

I’m a gardener in Rosswood and I’m trying to grow healthy food for my family of five. I’ve been working hard in the five years since we got this place

to get to the point we reached this spring, where I can grow all my plants from seed.

I remodeled basically my whole garden and added a big composting area. I was just installing an irrigation system to save time on the watering when slowly my plants started curling and dying.

What was happening? I had followed a post on Facebook

last year about a gardener in Thornhill that had the same problem. And now it is hap-pening here, in my own gar-den.

And we are not the only ones affected by this. The more I talked about it, the more cases I found, right here in Terrace.

Somehow we all got pi-cloram (Grazon), a herbicide

to control perennial weeds, in our garden. Most pesticides, including herbicides, break down quickly in the compost-ing process.

Picloram, Clopyralid and Aminopyralid do not. These herbicides are used to control broadleaf weeds such as Cana-da thistle in specific cases.

Dear Sir:My early euphoria over the AltaGas consor-

tium’s June 15 announcement that they are pushing ahead with an LNG barge facility in Haisla First Nation Territory in Douglas Channel using the PNG pipeline from the northern B.C. gas fields to Kitimat was short lived. They said there would be almost no environmental impact because there is only the need to construct a short, new section of pipeline.

I was pleased with their wise decision. The press statement made no reference to a Phase 2 twinning of the existing pipeline with a 24-inch pipeline that would traverse the upper Class 1 Section of the Zy-moetz River Valley.

It was great news that one of the last wild salm-on and steelhead wilderness river environments left in the Skeena Watershed would be spared.

This all changed when I read the Alaska High-way News that said AltaGas is proceeding with its Phase 1 plan and, after it has approval from the National Energy Board and the provincial govern-ment following an environmental assessment, they would move ahead with Phase 2 and the twinning of the PNG gas pipeline. Construction could start as early as late 2015. My hopes and dreams were dashed by the bad news.

Our provincial government should have had the foresight and fortitude to say some places are out of bounds for pipelines because natural values are just too valuable. Wilderness tourism operators and British Columbians want some wilderness areas to remain free from industrial encroachment.

Unfortunately, a wild west mentality has pre-vailed over LNG development. Little or no legiti-mate provincial government pre-planning of pipe-line development has taken place. Almost every facet of the planning and choice of locations has been left up to the pipeline and gas corporations/consortiums.

Pipeline route a hazardAn environmental assessment will take place

and for the most part no stone will be left unturned to assure that the environment will look as natural and as untouched as possible when the pipeline has been completed.

The problem is that old growth timber will be removed and replaced with grasses and shrubbery, identifying it as a pipeline right of way .

There are two alternative routes for a new pipe-line, one is through the Telkwa Pass where rock slides have taken place and damaged the current pipeline. This is a risk that can be overcome by tun-nelling and other proactive measures that are now used to protect the existing pipeline.

Poor engineering and planning were the cause of many previous pipeline breaks and failures over a number of years throughout the length of the pipe-line.

The second alternative would follow Highway 16 to Terrace and along the way the pipeline could provide natural gas to communities such as the Ha-zeltons where currently it is not available.

It is time for AltaGas and the provincial govern-ment to agree that one of the two alternative routes would be a better choice for twinning/looping the PNG pipeline.

Jim Culp, Terrace, B.C.

Herbicide effect spreadsbeyond first application

And those are turf such as golf courses, pastures for animals such as cattle, horses and other animals, grass family crops such as wheat, barley, grass hay, transmission line rights of way, and ditches along roads.

Did you ever see the herbicide signs they put up along the highway? There are also some on Ferry Island. Grazon has been used there. When animals graze on the treated pasture or hay, the chemicals pass through the animals and persist in the manure for several years — even if the manure is processed into compost. Gardeners use the contaminated hay, straw, grass clippings, manure or compost on their crops, bringing damage or slow death to plants. These poisons are so powerful that they can dam-age sensitive crops at very low levels.

I am not sure how I got it in my compost. I’m still trying to find out. One neighbour got it in straw she used for mulching, another through horse ma-nure, and a third one through hay she was feeding to her animals.

The possibilities are many and often it is very difficult do find out how it came into your garden.

But I know it will stay active for years.My neighbour’s plants grow healthy again after

almost seven years. I will have to dig out all the soil from my greenhouse, the new planter, the one bed in front of the greenhouse and wait and see how bad it is in the rest of the garden because I have added

the contaminated com-post soil to almost ev-erything in my garden...

So if you are raising animals, make sure the hay you feed them is not contaminated and

the field they are grazing on has not been sprayed in the past.

Gardeners, ask questions if you get manure, or hay, or straw, or top soil. Ask whether animals have been fed hay harvested from ditches or transmis-sion lines.

Why is such a powerful chemical being used so freely? The consequences are so obvious and so devastating. It is not a new phenomenon. It poi-sons our fields, gardens, even water. Who is taking control, who is responsible for the disaster in our gardens?

Christine Schonbachler,Rosswood, B.C.

“If you are raising animals, make sure the hay you feed them is not contaminated.”

Don’t stress your treeDear Sir:

Thank you for the recent article on worms in fruit trees on Page A3 in the June 10 edition of the Ter-race Standard.

The article helps educate fruit tree owners and provides some timely tips on how to manage a pesky bug that is proving to be an ongoing challenge.

Trees that have a significant fruit load, however, should not be pruned, but rather, hand thinned in order to reduce stress on the tree.

Fruit trees that are left to carry excessive fruit typically develop a biannual production cycle and become much more vulnerable to disease.

COMMUNITYMARGARET SPEIRS

(250)638-7283

By MARGARET SPEIRS

THE THORNHILL fire chief didn’t expect to leave town but an opportunity came up that has moved him to Vancouver Island to take a position there.

Wes Patterson worked his last day here June 26 and begins his new role as deputy fire chief in Port Alberni on Canada Day.

“It wasn’t something I had even thought about in terms of leaving the area, community or the job,” said Patterson June 19.

“Quite honestly this job has been more than a job and it’s been great, but Port Alberni’s deputy fire chief position had come available. My parents live there so that’s a huge plus.” said Patterson, add-ing he talked to his wife about the job and she en-couraged him to apply for it.

The job will be a change as it’s with a career fire department, while Thornhill is primarily volunteer.

But he will still be working with the volunteer fire departments outside Port Alberni, he said.

“It is a city and has al those things that go along with it and so it’ll be challenging for me,” he said.

“I’ve known the [fire] chief for a number of years and he’s very well-respected with the fire ser-vice and the opportunity to work with him and learn from him and for him to mentor me is a great op-portunity so all those things have kind of combined that said ‘if you’re going to go, this is the time, this is the place to go,’” said Patterson, about Port Al-berni fire chief Tim Pley.

He’s sad to go as he’s met a lot of good people, worked for great people and really enjoyed his time here.

“I’ve met fantastic people both within the fire department and the community and thru the prov-ince by having the opportunity to do the things that I’ve done with the regional district with the emer-gency program, with BC fire chiefs association and training officers association,” he said.

“It was just an amazing opportunity and up un-til two and a half months ago, I would’ve said I’ll retire here,” he added, saying he’s got another 10 years to work, and he hopes to do all that in Port Alberni as he’s not much for moving around.

His job there is running with four career fire-fighters and a captain on each shift, fire chief and fire prevention officer, he said.

All the types of firefighting he does up here will

be done there too: highway rescue, confined spaces, basic hazmat etc.

Patterson was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba but moved out here when still young so with the excep-tion of a couple of years in Dease Lake, he’s lived here since he was in Grade 6.

He volunteered for the fire department and worked various jobs – including his volunteer time, he’s been with the fire department here for 32 years.

During his volunteer time, he took courses so he could learn how to operate the fire department one day.

When the fire chief left, Patterson became depu-ty fire chief, first part-time and then full-time.

In 2005, after six years as deputy fire chief, he was appointed to be fire chief when Art Hill retired.

Highlights of his career include getting in on the 1999 or 2000 Kemano Safety Initiative, where he spent time in Kemano burning down houses in a controlled, safe way that helped train firefighters throughout the province.

“That was kind of at the start of my career,” he said.

Seeing 911 implemented in the regional district is another highlight.

He did help rescue a horse that had fallen into the river during a flood years ago.

He was in charge and made the decision to get the horse when no one else would.

“At the end of day, it was the right thing to do. We did it without anybody getting hurt,” said Pat-terson, adding that wasn’t during the flood of 2007 but was an earlier one.

Another animal call marks another highlight.He was off duty and out riding his motorcycle

when dispatch called to say some ladies were look-ing for someone to help a baby bird that had fallen out of a tree.

Patterson was only a block-and-a-half away.“So I zipped over and got the fire truck and put

the bird back in the tree and I think they were happy with the response,” he said.

“Hopefully the bird is out there singing away.”And he’s thankful for being part of the Kitselas

agreement the fire department made to provide fire protection for Kleanza, Gitaus and the area.

“I just want to thank everybody, the community and the people I worked with in Thornhill and the Terrace area through the whole regional district.

Thornhill fire chief makes career move

WES PATTERSON spent his entire firefighting career here until a new position with great opportunities to learn came up quickly and he de-cided to move on. Here he is June 19 with the newly completed fire stairs to be used for training.

He helps others to succeedBy JOSH MASSEY

CHRIS ARNOLD remem-bers fondly some of the positive results his employ-ment program has had for people with hindrances to employment, a career for which he recently won a na-tional award.

One client could finally afford to travel down to Vancouver to see a Ca-nucks game and visit an old friend, while another cli-ent used his newly learned landscaping skills to start his own business.

For 25 years, Chris has helped people with em-ployment barriers, be they mental or physical, enter the workforce through the

social agency he co-found-ed called the Provincial Networking Group, and was recently awarded the CASE-Wiltshire Award of Excellence in Supported Employment.

Arnold cofounded the Provincial Networking Group Inc. with Margaret Anderson back in 1992, but his understanding of com-munications with the dis-abled, including sign lan-guage, goes farther back.

He originally began learning sign language in high school, during which time he had a friend who needed an interpreter.

Born in Fort St. John, Arnold has now lived in Terrace for 25 years, and

has been building on those original skills and develop-ing a business career of it at the same time.

The recent award is one of several he has earned over the years because of the success of his supported employment program and other qualifications such as having written a book called “Screaming for Attention – True Stories about the Puz-zle of Human Behaviour.” The number of people with hindrances who entered the workforce through Provin-cial Networking impressed others in the field, and the success has translated into invitations to talks at vari-ous conventions.

“I’ve spoken in Calgary,

Halifax, Winnipeg, all at these national conferences, and we have spoken up in Alaska and Vancouver a lot. We talk about the in-novative work we do, our model. Even though it’s a small rural community, a lot of the strategies we devel-oped here are being used in Halifax and Calgary, and all these other places because of speaking at conferences and things like that.”

He also trains people with disabilities in visual and gestural communica-tion and also offers train-ing to people who live and work with those who have behavioral disabilities.

“Unemployment rates for disabilities are very high and it has been for a long time,” said Arnold.

“People with disabilities are not well enough represented in the workforce. Lots of people with disabilities have the ability to work to some degree. If they are working they are earning income, pay-ing taxes, they are contributing. If they are not, they are on disability, they are receiving support, all of that. Employment is such a huge point of any of our lives. When you meet somebody it’s like ‘what’s your name, what do you do?’”

“This one is really neat. It’s a group of our peers who chose us,” he said of the award. Unfortunately, he adds, funding was cut off for supported employ-ment last year and his company has had to close that service, but he hopes it will one day return.

DESPITE A warning from fire officials in mid-June urging the public to be cautious, human activity has resulted in two more wildfires in the Skeena region over the past week.

A small, human-caused fire was started just 2.5 kilometres south of New Aiyansh in the Nass Valley and it was followed by an-other fire at the Kitimat River bridge northeast of Kitimat.

The discovery of these new fires comes after crews responded to six fires in the Ter-race, Kitimat, and Nass Valley region over the span of just a week and a half in early June. This included a fire on Terrace Mountain close to the heart of Terrace on June 14.

This brings the total number of fires in the northwest fire region – spanning from the Yu-kon boarder to Endako and Tweedsmuir Park – to 44, which is signifi-cantly higher than the ten year average for this time of year of 32.

With exceedingly hot and dry weather forecast in the coming week, fire officials are asking the public to be extra cautious when participating in recre-ational activities in the backcountry or using open flame.

“This [hot weather] could raise the fire dan-ger rating yet again,” said Olivia Pojar of the Northwest Fire Centre as she reminds the pub-lic that the recent wet conditions have not re-duced the overall wild-

fire risk. “Dry forest fuels

require a significant amount of sustained precipitation to regain moisture, and the dry conditions in the com-ing week could rapidly increase the fire risk.”

Campers are remind-ed to be cautious while burning. Campfires cannot be more than 0.5 metres wide and 0.5 metres tall as larger “party fires” are ille-gal and, if they get out of control, the person

present at the fire may be held liable. All fires must be completely ex-tinguished and never left unattended.

Recreation vehicles can also pose a threat as sparks from the exhaust system can sometimes

start a wildfire in very dry conditions.

To report smoke, flames, unattended campfires or non-com-pliant open burning, call 1-800-663-5555 or dial *5555 on your cell phone. Olivia Pojar

More human-caused fires reported

SIGNS WARNING about hitchhiking may be posted along the side highways and plenty of information about its dangers may be avail-able, but that didn’t deter two teenage girls from Prince Rupert, Terrace RCMP report.

In the June 24-25 daily log of police ac-tivity, officers respond-ed to a report of a girl, 17, and one who was 15 years-old being at Mills Memorial Hospital.

“They had hitch-hiked from Prince Ru-pert, had no place to go so they decided to hang out at the hospital,” the police reported stated.

“Police spoke with the girls and arrange-ments were made,” the report concluded.

Police now regu-larly speak with female hitchhikers, offering information and safe alternatives to the prac-tice of looking for rides.

A MEDIATION process to reach a � rst collec-tive agreement between the University of North-ern British Columbia’s faculty association and administration has con-cluded with the media-tor recommending the parties refer the matter to binding arbitration.

The UNBC Faculty Association launched a two-week strike in March that ended only when the University applied for mediation under a special process speci� cally for � rst col-lective agreements.

The recently estab-lished faculty associa-tion union, which rep-resents 360 instructors and others, has been in negotiations and then mediation with the uni-versity since May 2014 in an attempt to reach a � rst agreement.

The union issued 72-hour strike no-tice Monday, March 2 and erected picket lines, including at the Terrace campus, March 5. Stu-dents returned to school two weeks later after the university applied for the special media-tion.

“At the conclusion of that process, [the university] board-ap-pointed mediator Trev-

or Sones recommended that the parties refer the matter to binding arbi-tration,” reads a release from the faculty asso-ciation. The hearings will take place this fall after meeting with both parties, con� rmed arbi-trator Stan Lanyon.

“We look forward to meeting with Mr Lan-

yon to present our po-sitions and evidence,” said Dr Ted Binnema, chief negotiator of the faculty association.

The mediation pro-cess could have ended in a contract between the two parties, or medi-ator recommendation of binding or non-binding mediated arbitration,

arbitration, or continued job action.

Faculty members are pressing the university for wage increases they say will bring salaries to levels of other universi-ties.

And they say wage increases are needed to both attract and keep faculty members.

A CITY bylaw amend-ment will make it man-datory to display ad-dresses clearly on each unit of multi-unit com-plexes.

The change to the bylaw governing street addresses was passed through � rst, second, and third readings at the June 24 city council meeting.

It now only needs to be adopted before the changes can take force.

The new bylaw will see multi-unit complex-es needing to display their civic address on the principle building and then the unit num-ber at the entrance to each unit.

Also coming thanks to the amendment is a change to the address height requirements for commercial, industrial, or public buildings.

Addresses will need to be at least 15 cen-timeters tall for better visibility.

Robbery suspect taggedTERRACE RCMP want a 28-year-old Prince Rupert man charged for robbing the Carters Jewellers store on Lakelse Ave. April 22, 2014.

And they’ve forwarded infor-mation to Crown Counsel lawyers following a lengthy investigation using information provided by the public.

“This led to forensic evidence being obtained and connecting this man from Prince Rupert to the robbery. Public assistance is vital for police to effectively conduct

investigations and keep commu-nities safe,” says Const. Angela Rabut of the Terrace RCMP.

On April 22, 2014 shortly af-ter 3 p.m., a man entered Carters Jewellers on Lakelse Ave. and smashed out a glass display case with a tool. He then stole more than $80,000 worth of jewelry and � ed on foot.

KERMODE FRIENDSHIP SOCIETY

THANK YOUTHE NON-PROFIT society running a gravel airstrip at Bob Quinn Lake along Hwy37 North is closing it down the end of this month.

The society hasn’t qualified for any type of government as-sistance over the years and it’s never been able to develop a dependable and consistent in-come based on industrial use, says Keith Routley from the Bob Quinn Lake Airport So-ciety.

And now with repairs need-ed to a portion of the 4,000-foot long strip, the society doesn’t have the money for the work, he said.

“We’re just a bush airstrip. That’s what you could call it,” said Routley of the airstrip which is 100-feet wide and has no buildings.

He was able to get money for the airstrip from companies during periods of industrial activity but when projects fin-ished, those companies moved

on.And in that fashion, the air-

strip fell right in line with the boom-bust economic nature of northern resource develop-ment, Routley added.

Ideas such as placing it within a local government benefitting area to establish a tax stream or acquiring other crown lands and then leasing portions to companies for stor-age or other uses were not re-alized.

The airstrip’s society did learn this spring of a provin-cial program but it would re-quire the society to put up 25 per cent of the budget for any work and that’s money the so-ciety just doesn’t have, said Routley.

The society runs on a shoe-string with Routley acting, as he calls himself, its “chief cook and bottle washer” and society founder.

Closing would be a shame because the airstrip is centrally

located to potential resource projects, Routley continued, because it’s in a climatic zone where warm air reduces the amount of snowfall and it has a reliable approach.

It was built by the province during the last days of Bill Vander Zalm’s Social Credit government in 1990, he said.

“Back then it was what you could call the Iskut gold rush. There was a lot of activity. The worry was that the Americans would benefit by coming up the Stikine River to supply the camps,” said Routley.

That convinced the gov-ernment of the day to counter any American activity by con-structing the airstrip.

Its longest user was the Es-kay Creek gold mine which closed in 2008. It was also used to an extend by NovaGold for its Galore Creek project before cost overruns shut down work there and just lately, it saw use during construction of BC

Hydro’s Northwest Transmis-sion Line.

For several years, the air-strip was on the list of stops as part of a seasonal service by Northern Thunderbird Air-lines from either Smithers or Terrace.

At the beginning of June, AltaGas used the airstrip to bring in company officials and others for the official opening of its run of river power proj-ects on the Iskut River.

Officially closing the air-strip, which will happen when its insurance runs out at the end of this month, means filing notices with aviation authori-ties, placing a large ‘X’ made out of white plastic strips on its surface, removing a wind-sock and removing oil barrels which now act as boundary markers.

“But we couldn’t stop peo-ple from using it if they want-ed to anyway,” said Routley of the airstrip.

Northern airstrip shuts down

MID-SIZE CALGARY energy company Alta-Gas is moving steadily to exploit two separate northwest business deals in the expecta-tion of being the first to ship liquefied natural gas (LNG) to Asian cus-tomers.

The first by AltaGas is the purchase, com-pleted in late 2011, of Pacific Northern Gas, the region’s natural gas provider.

That gave the com-pany control of the region’s only, so far, natural gas pipeline in existence which can connect northeastern gas deposits with an oceanside export facil-ity.

And the second, wound up just this year, is the rescuing from insolvency of a consor-tium’s failed attempt, after nearly eight years of trying, to get into the LNG business.

That provided Alta-Gas, along with partner Indemitsu, a Japanese energy company, and two other companies with specialized ser-vices the basics for a $600 million LNG proj-ect to be located on the

Douglas Channel near Kitimat.

At an estimated 550,000 tonnes of pro-duction a year, Douglas Channel LNG, based on a barge-like floating facility, would likely be the smallest such export facility to be built in B.C.

But when fed, thanks to an 8km extension of the PNG line which now terminates at the former Methanex site at Kiti-mat, it could very well be the first LNG project to go into production, says AltaGas vice presi-dent Dan Woznow.

But that’s contingent on a final investment decision being made by the end of the year, he adds.

Aside from the Alta-Gas/Indemitsu partner-ship, Douglas Channel LNG consists of a sub-sidiary of a French en-ergy trading company called Electricite de France S.A. to market the product and EX-MAR NV, a Belgian company that would build the floating barge LNG facility.

AltaGas’s own stake in the project is $100 million, a relatively

small amount when considering the tens of billions the larger proj-ects would cost.

Each company in the consortium brings its own specialty to the project which carries the slogan of ‘small, simple, competitive’, said Woznow.

“We’re talking eight LNG tankers a year,” he said. “By no means are we on the scale of the other projects.”

The floating LNG producing facility would be secured just offshore of a piece of land which once be-longed to Alcan but which has now been turned over to the Hais-la.

That’s where the pipeline extension will finish and other facili-ties built to connect with the floating facility.

The Haisla in turn have entered a long term lease with Douglas Channel LNG and have negotiated an economic benefits agreement.

Aside from the float-ing LNG-producing fa-cility would be another moored vessel to hold the super-cooled prod-uct being produced.

“It’s just like a giant refrigerator – except at -163 degrees Celsius,” noted Woznow.

From there the liq-uefied product will be pumped into waiting LNG tankers.

Woznow estimates each tanker will be docked at the location for 10 to 15 days.

What makes this project attractive, he continued, is that the technology and equip-ment has been in ser-vice elsewhere, mean-ing there won’t be any new or site-specific technological compo-nents needed.

But because of the small size of the proj-ect it won’t need to go through the kind of en-vironmental assessment

required by the larger LNG projects.

Instead it will fall under the regulatory umbrella of the provin-cial Oil and Gas Com-mission which oversees energy developments in northeastern B.C.

“It will be a full pro-cess,” said Woznow, listing off a series of permits that will be needed.

The shipping por-tion of the project will also be reviewed by a number of federal ma-rine and other agencies to determine best prac-tices, he added.

The consortium is also at the beginning stages of connect-ing First Nations who have interests along the planned route from the

Douglas Channel to the ocean.

Douglas Channel LNG will mirror larger planned projects in that it will use its own natu-ral gas to generate its own electricity.

“We did consider BC Hydro but we wanted to keep it simple and to make it work,” said Woznow.

Provided a final investment decision is made at the end of this year, production is scheduled to start in 2018.

Woznow said it could take up to 36 months to construct the floating facility over-seas and then transport it to the Douglas Chan-nel location.

The facility will re-

quire up to 70 employ-ees to operate it when finished and the multi-plier effect of generat-ing work in the service support sector means anywhere from another 150 to 200 jobs will be created.

■ Chowing downSAINT-JEAN-BAPTISTE DAY June 24, the national holiday in Quebec, was celebrated June 26 at Heritage Park thanks to the Heritage Park Museum and the Association des francophones et francophiles du Nord-Ouest. Jesse Longpre won the poutine eating contest for the third year in a row.

TERRACE RCMP responded to a report of an over-turned boat spotted � oating down the Kalum River, a daily log of police activity for June 24-25 indicated.

Already at the scene were Terrace Search and Res-cue volunteers and the Terrace Fire Department.

“The two men and dog in the boat all made it to shore OK,” the report continued.

Of� cials say safety precautions, including wearing lifejackets, are important while boating.

Safe and sound

From front

Rezoning delayedThat’s pending more information about traf� c plans

for Lanfear Hill.City staff have determined that a traf� c impact study

may be mandated in this case if the developer intends to put more than 50 units on the property.

The property, perched at the top of Lanfear Hill of-fering a view of Terrace and area, once belonged to Ma-mie and Fred Kerby and was sold last year for $1.28 million.

It’s not the only large piece of property up for devel-opment in that area of the bench.

Further north along Thomas, a large piece of land was sold – and then cleared – immediately adjacent to Uplands Elementary last year for another housing proj-ect.

And west of the proposed former Kerby property de-velopment along McConnell toward Northwest Com-munity College, another Vancouver-based company has plans.

SwissReal wants to build a 35-unit townhouse com-plex on 2.7 acres on the 5100 Block of McConnell. That’s almost across the street from a single-family subdivision now sporting several homes under con-struction.

The SwissReal development, which has yet to start, is to feature three-bedroom units carrying a price tag of anywhere from $370,000 to $390,000, company presi-dent Franz Gehriger told council here in the spring.

And on Halliwell, also on the bench, a southern B.C. company has plans to build 12 duplexes amounting to 24 units on acreage Munroe next year.

Those developments would also increase the amount of traf� c going up and down Lanfear Hill.

THE FORMER Kerby property on Lanfear Hill lead-ing toward the bench is up for rezoning to permit a multi-family residential complex.

Afonso Rodrigues TomasFebruary 8, 1928 - June 13, 2015

Afonso Rodrigues Tomas passed peacefully at home on Saturday, June 13, 2015 at the age of 87 years.

He is survived by his wife of 64 years, Maria do Rosario; his three children, Joe (Susan), Ligia and Clayton (Anna-Marie) along with his seven grandchildren and four great grandchildren.

Afonso was born in the village of Lajedo on the island of Flores, Acores on February 8, 1928. He immigrated to Terrace in 1959 with his family. His family was raised in a home he built himself while working multiple jobs. His determination and work ethic saw him build thriving businesses, including Riverside Meats and the Skeena Driving School, which he owned for over a decade. He enjoyed spending his time fishing and in his garden. Afonso was a pillar of strength for his family and his love, humour, stubbornness and bravery will be missed in equal measure.

His memorial service was held on Saturday, June 20, 2015 at Sacred Heart Parish in Terrace. The family wishes to thank everyone for the kindness and love, shown in so many ways, during this sad time. We also want to thank each of you for helping us celebrate his life at the Memorial Mass.

Nightmares pick up new strategy down south THE NORTH Coast Nightmares roller derby team hit the road earlier this month, attend-ing their biggest tournament yet – Summer Slam 2015 at Minoru Arena in Richmond.

The tournament saw 22 teams from all over B.C. face off against similarly ranked squads and was welcome opportunity for the Nightmares to beef up their skills and go up against fresh competition.

“It was full on roller derby all weekend,” said co-captain and vice president Jessica “Marge Sins Some” Hogg.

The team’s four bouts of the tournament – and hours upon hours spent spectating – upped their experience level, meaning the team’s final home bout of the season in the coming weeks will be one to watch.

“All of our games were really amaz-ing experience-wise,” she said. “We played teams that we would never normally play and play differently.”

In roller derby, reffing can really deter-mine a game, she said. So playing with dif-ferent referees than the ones in the northern league was a learning experience. Refs will “make calls in different ways. We were get-ting penalties that we didn’t normally get. Had to adjust our game. What a great way to learn.”

The team “learned some strategies that we weren’t able to defend against” and will be incorporating some new plays into their

next game and into next season.In true northern fashion, Terrace travelled

the furthest and brought the smallest squad to the tournament – 10 Nightmares and a

player picked up from Quesnel. But that didn’t stop them from putting up a strong fight.

“We faced teams that had 20 people sit-

ting on their bench ready to play, and we’re with 11 ... but that’s kind of the way we roll,” she said.

“One of my favourite things is when you surprise the other team,” she said, referring to a close bout against the Sun City Sirens. “They think they’re going to field their new skaters and all of the sudden he’s yanking his new skaters and throwing in his pickups and his ringers. That’s a pretty good feeling, we’ve done that a few times. People shouldn’t underestimate our little northern team.”

And now the team is ready for a true northern bout, welcoming the PG Rated grey team to Terrace for the first time July 11 at the Terrace Sportsplex. The Nightmares played this team last year and beat them and are anticipating a competitive match.

Summer Smackdown is the team’s last game of the season and unlike other bouts in the past, the team is capping tickets at 500 – get your ticket early so you don’t miss out.

Prince George is also hosting a boot camp reffing clinic the next day. The Nightmares are always looking for new refs – that’s something Hogg says was underscored this year with the increase in home bouts.

“People who are interested in becoming part of the roller derby community but yet not stoked on the performance part – be-cause derby is half sport, half spectacle,” she said.

MEMBERS OF Terrace’s Shogun Dojo at their training grounds in the ET Kenney School gym.

Dojo feels the hunger TERRACE SHOGUN Dojo sensei Amber Pipe says despite the club’s recent success at the Montreal tournament, the club won’t be returning to the WKU National Champion-ships.

And she says that’s mostly because of how she was treated as a woman martial art-ist and club owner by the tournament’s or-ganizers.

“The disrespect to me was over the top,” she said. “I can’t handle being treated like a piece of dirt just because I’m a woman. If you want to treat me like a piece of dirt, at least I want to know that I’ve done some-thing.”

Instead, the club will focus on attending open tournaments that offer more opportuni-ties to fight – and more diverse competition.

“That’s what our kids are looking for,” said sensei Rajan Sangha. “You go there, you pay your money, and you fight.”

And if one thing was clear after the latest competition, it’s that Shogun’s martial art-ists are hungry for more fights – and serious about preparing for those fights.

“Getting the experience, being able to fight against five guys at one tournament kind of opens up their mind that they need to learn more things,” said Sangha. “They’re back here hungry and training again two days

after we got back... we gave them the option of taking a month off and it was a unanimous decision to get right back to training.”

As is typically the case, the athletes end-ed up competing against people with years more experience. “They’ve been black belts

since they were 14 years old, training since they were three,” said Sangha.

One highlight was new fighter Zach Law-ley’s fourth in point fighting.

“He had a real tough category,” said Sangha. “He lost by one point in overtime

and fought against a black belt. He’s basi-cally a white belt.”

Pipe added that Lawley was integral to the strong start program she ran this year. “He’s a role model.”

When I pass Kozier Road, and I pass it often on my way to the Lakelse River or the rocky, fish rich shingles on

the right side of the lower Skeena, I think of Len. One of the last homesteaders in this province, Len first acquired some land through a crown lease just downstream of Hells Gate Slough in 1970 and quickly realized if he was going to build a house he needed to get some higher ground. Ul-timately, he obtained a tract of forest at the end of the road now named after him and began logging and clearing.

Len was raised in Richmond in the 1950s, a time before the invention of bubble wrap and helicopter parenting. He grew up on a farm not large enough to jus-tify the expense of buying a tractor, but big enough to require chores from the children who lived on it. Like the kids who grew up then, Len spent a lot of time outside, played unsupervised, and participated in unorganized sports, that is, activities not lacking in organization but sports orga-nized by him and his peers. It was the kind of childhood that created a generation of kids free of notions of entitlement and full of the confidence that convinced them if they set their minds to it, they could solve whatever problems and overcome whatev-er obstacles stood in the way of their goals.

Len graduated from university with a Bachelor’s degree in Education, but soon realized he would rather be working out-side than under the artificial light of neon tubes. Living in a trailer with Marion and

his kids, he worked tirelessly on the land. When it was dark, he burrowed into books on how to build timber frame homes, how to wire and plumb them, and how to run a farm. He managed all those things because he had incredible reserves of energy. Anyone who has visited Marion and Len’s spread at the end of Kozier Road will tell you that he managed rather well.

When he was passed the age when most men are retired, Len became interested in wine. He put the farm up for sale at around a million bucks, which I hope he got because it was a bargain, and bought an apple orchard on the outskirts of Penticton where he removed the apple trees, planted vines, studied viticulture, and, after a few years, had a successful or-ganic vineyard on the go.

Hay and beef were staples at Kozier’s farm, but for a while Len grew strawber-ries. At first the plants thrived but after a while there were no bumper crops and Len began wondering why. Contempora-neously, groups of concerned residents of the Bulkley Valley were alarmed that the generals of the aluminum army were con-ducting a campaign they called Kemano

Completion, not so sub-tly implying it was the foregone conclusion of the original Kemano project, when in actual fact it was a greedy pow-er grab by Alcan that threatened to bring dams to the Skeena drainage with grave implications for fish and everything that depends on fish, which is everything.

There was much co-alescing on the heels of the announcement of Alcan’s initiative. The commercial fishing in-dustry, obviously con-cerned about the welfare

of salmon, joined the Steelhead Society of BC, who had similar concerns, and to-gether they linked up with First Nations, farmers, land owners, tourist operators, sports fishers, and concerned individuals to form a groundswell of opposition. Len, who had read about the negative effects of fluoride emissions on livestock that had ingested feed contaminated with the stuff in literature from Agriculture Canada, was concerned with the effect of the tonnes of wind borne fluoride saturated pollution that spewed from the smelter in Kitimat might be having on his hay and strawber-ries, joined the coalition as the president of the Kitsumkalum Farmers’ Institute.

There being no internet in those days,

research was much more difficult. Un-daunted, Len learned that CASAW local one, the union representing the workers at Alcan had hired Dr. Shirley Connibear, an authority of international renown with nu-merous peer reviewed papers to her credit on the effects of fluorides on people, to examine the fluoride emissions in Kitimat in hopes of shaming the corporation into making improvements that would lessen worker exposure inside the smelter. Alcan hired an academic gunslinger to combat Dr. Connibear’s findings but ultimately made improvements.

The more Len, and the rest of us, found out about the downwind effects of alumi-num smelter effluent, the more troubled we became. Len recalled that there was an aluminum smelter not so far from his childhood home in the lower mainland. He remembered it being built near Ferndale, then commencing operations in the late 1960s. While on a visit to the lower main-land, he made the drive across the border into Washington’s Whatcom County bound for Ferndale. As he passed through miles and miles of farmland similar to that in the Fraser Valley, he tried to imagine an alumi-num smelter the proportions of the Alcan facility in the Kitimat estuary in the pasto-ral setting surrounding him and concluded it must be significantly smaller.

He passed Ferndale, a city a population similar to that of Smithers, turned west on Mountainview Road and there it was in the distance.

Clock-wise from below, Calleigh Sallen-back (Recreation-al Gymnast of the Year), Carissa Nenninger (Com-petitive Female Gymnast of the Year), and Renya Brouwer (Interclub Gymnast of the Year).

Peaks dismount from seasonTHE TERRACE Peaks finished the season with its annual year-end awards and displays earlier this month.

Gymnasts, their families, and coaches gathered at the Ed Fair-less Memorial Gym in Thornhill June 20 for the event which saw over $500 raised towards the pur-chase of a new mat.

After the gymnasts and coach-es showed off what they’ve been working on over the last several months, awards were given out to many the club’s gymnasts.

Calleigh Sallenback was named recreational gymnast of the year. Interclub gymnast of the year went to Renya Brouwer.

Competitive Female Gymnast

of the Year was given to Carissa Nenninger. And Ron Bee re-ceived the club spirit award.

The Terrace Peaks welcomed a new coach this year.

Karl McPherson was hired in April and has been busy catch-ing up and working with club manager Kiera Almas to get the club’s competitive team in shape to compete next year.

With McPherson’s hiring, the club has also been able to bring back several popular sessions which were put on hold when the club was short-staffed.

For more information on the Terrace Peaks, visit their web-site www.terracepeaks.ca or find them on Facebook.

The club has welcomed another new athlete to the group, Josh Sangha, Rajan’s cousin. He earned silver in advanced sparring and bronze in black belt sparring.

“Really good for him because he’s never had a tournament before,” said Sangha, noting that he’s only been training seriously for a few months.

Sangha said Adrian Babcock’s performance – gold in continuous, bronze in point fighting – stood out for him. “His continuous fighting is probably the best of the club,” he said. “He’s so athletic and naturally skilled that he just excels.”

Sangha himself had a close match – losing by a technical point in the point fighting finals to take silver.

Pipe said this was actually a good thing. “That fight was anybody’s fight,” she said.

“But he needed to lose because if you’re always winning you’re not growing. Now he has a hun-ger to grow and try new things.”

She had a similar sentiment for Robbie Cline, who took home bronze in point and silver in continuous. “When Robbie started with us Robbie was winning everything, almost became unteachable,” she said, noting that his continu-ous fight was rough and that they have “things to work on now ... When you’re always on top there is nowhere to grow.”

And both praised Nick Yasinchuk for the hard work he put in leading up to the tourna-ment. “He went above and beyond the call of duty and really excelled in both of his styles of fighting,” said Pipe.

Jenna Hoornenborg, who earned gold in con-tinuous and silver in point fighting, had a par-ticularly standout tournament. “She fought an adult in a higher weight class and she beat her senseless, there was no contest,” said Pipe.

Next up, the team plans to travel to New Orleans to fight in the first of their open-style tournaments.

IN THE June 24 issue of The Terrace Stan-dard, the story “Kimmunity Angels take reins at Sunday Market at Skeena Landing,” mis-takenly said that the namesake of the Kim-munity Angels, Kim, had lost her battle with cancer.

Kim is alive and inspiring others with her � ght against cancer.

The Kimmunity Angels group is this year’s sponsor and organizer of the Sunday Market. Vendor fees paid are then used by the Angels to provide � nancial assistance to those battling serious illnesses.

Douglas Channel LNG’s ownership group anticipates making a � -nal investment decision the end of this year.

Based on that a forecast construction schedule has the facil-ity going into produc-tion in 2018, meaning that’s the earliest date a northwest rate reduc-

tion could be expected.Northwest gas rates

based on shouldering all of the costs of maintain-ing the Paci� c North-ern Gas pipeline began climbing when the util-ity started losing major industrial customers, among them being the Methanex methanol plant in Kitimat which

closed in 2006.An added strain on

northwestern gas users came when the price of the commodity itself began to climb in the latter part of the last de-cade.

And while the price of gas itself has fallen in recent years, the high transport costs remain a

major factor on north-western gas user bills.

AltaGas will need to build an 8km extension of the Paci� c Northern Gas Kitimat branch line which now stops at the closed Methanex plant to the planned Douglas Channel LNG project location.

Paci� c Northern

Gas rates are subject to regular scrutiny and ap-proval by the provincial B.C. Utilities Commis-sion.

As is the case with all utilities, Paci� c Northern Gas passes along the price of natu-ral gas to its customers.

It is not permitted to add to that cost.

Lower gas rates possible

A MOTORCYCLE was been impounded and its driver is facing charges after it was clocked traveling 225 kilome-tres an hour just south of Terrace June 21. The speed limit on that stretch of Hwy 37 is 100 kilometres an hour.

“This is the fastest speed that I have seen in my 12 years in the RCMP,” said Constable David Desa of the West Paci� c Region Traf� c Services Unit who suc-cessfully stopped the driver of the Suzuki GSX-R 1000.

The motorcycle was impounded for seven days and the male driv-er is facing charges of excessive speed under Section 148 of the Mo-tor Vehicle Act.

“With the speed the driver was traveling, he would not have been able to react to anything that happened in front of him and could easily have been involved in a serious collision,” said Desa.

Desa was going in the opposite direction of the motorcycle and when he turned on his lights, the motorcyclist stopped.

The scheduled � ne for the speed that the motorcycle was going is $483. However, due to the fact that he was go-ing 125 km/hr over the speed limit, the driver was given a court date instead of a violation ticket, said police.

Police remind mo-torcyclists to be aware of the other road users.

The driver is from outside of the province, said police.

Impoundment of the vehicle is mandatory for an excessive speed situation and excessive speed is de� ned as trav-eling at 41 kilometres and hour or more above the speed limit.
