'x•2,59 3 SCHEDULE "A" REPORT OF THE CHAIRMAN TO THE ANNUAL MEETING FEBRUARY 20, 1959 Introduction It was just over one year ago that I assumed the Chair- manship of this Authority. It can be fairly said that I have never worked with a more progressive and forward - looking organiz- ation. Concerned with the conservation administration of an area of 950 square miles, in which live 1,500,000 persons, the Auth- ority requires dedicated people to keep it functioning in a healthy manner. It is my happy conclusion that it possesses these dedicated people. The Authority membership was fifty -one in 195$ and will be fifty -seven in 1959. There are four statutory water- shed boards and five functional boards, who are responsible for the detailed work of the Authority. In addition, sixteen sub- committees were appointed for specific tasks. Your business is handled between Authority meetings by the Executive Committee. This Committee is made up of the Chairmen of the nine Advisory Boards and the Chairman and the Vice - Chairman of the Authority. The Executive Committee held 24 meetings during the year, and I wish'to pay tribute to the way in which each member of the Committee has given of his or her time, energy and counsel. I would particularly acknowledge the strong support which I have received from the Vice - Chairman, Mr. B. Harper Bull. The work of the Advisory Boards will be discussed in some detail later in this report. Suffice it to say that these Boards, functioning under very able chairmen, have contributed in very large measure to the overall success of the year's activities. There were some 103 Authority and Committee meetings luring the year, in which $5 different individuals participated. the Authority is most fortunate in its possession of a loyal and _ffective permanent staff. Under the leadership of the Secretary - rreasurer and the Senior Field Officer, our operations have been arried on with imagination and despatch. Mr. Ken Higgs energetic - tlly headed up our technical operations and field work, ably 14 -2- assisted by the technical and conservation areas staffs. In the administrative work of the Authority, Mr. Fred Lunn has shown judgment and given constant attention to the manifold items of our operations. He has been supported by an excellent headquarters staff. It has been part of my concern during the year to observe the work and functioning of all of our services. I have been very much impressed by the performance and devotion to duty of all of our employees. There is an excellent esprit de corps in existence amongst the staff. The Year's Work Watershed Advisory Boards The four watershed advisory boards are the Etobicoke- Mimico, Humber, Don and R.D.H.P. These Boards held separate meetings during the year and sent forward many valuable recommendations to the Executive Committee. They serve a useful function in reaching the people who live on the watersheds and offering an opportunity for members of local councils to present the problems peculiar to any particular locality. While it is not always possible for the Authority to implement, at once, every recommendation presented by a watershed board, attention is focussed on urgent problems and their solution is usually fitted into overall Authority planning. Functional Advisory Boards The functional advisory boards are not concerned with any particular watershed but deal with phases of the work common to all. They consist of the Conservation Areas, Flood and Pollution, Historical Sites, Reforestation and Land Use, and Information and Education Advisory Boards. The names of the chairmen, vice - chairmen and members of these Boards and of the datershed Advisory Boards are shown in the Authority Directory for 1958. ;onservation Areas The Authority now has eleven areas designated as onservation Areas. During the year 1958, 850 acres were added .o our holdings. The various areas and their present acreages 5 -3- are as follows: Heart Lake Glen Haffy Albion Hills Cold Creek Boyd Dalziel and Edgeley Oakbank Community Pond Uxbridge Glen Major Greenwood C lareznont Dingle Total 238 acres 165 618 50 405 97 5 90 67 390 284 150 2504 acres Not all of these Areas are at present developed and open to the public. Heart Lake, Albion Hills and Boyd have been open all year and Greenwood was officially opened in August. It is planned that Glen Haffy will be opened in 1959. It had also been planned to open Edgeley Village in 1959, but a change in financial arrangements may make this impossible. Cold Creek will not be opened until it is expanded in area, and Glen Major and Claremont are to be developed in due course. A map showing the location of our holdings is appended to this report. The attendance at our Conservation Areas has continued to grow, and reached the total of over 350,000 during 1958. This compares with the attendance in 1957 of 126,000 - an increase of 276%. The vehicle admissions to Ereas were as follows: Boyd Albion Heart Lake Greenwood Total 14,520 10,449 43,649 2,395 71,012 In addition, 99 buses entered the Areas. The average car occupancy was 4.5 persons, which indicates that entire families are utilizing the facilities. Not included in the above figures are scouting and other group camps, some 3,000 school children who toured the various day camps and nature trails. In all, over 15,000 persons registered as visiting the nature trails. It is notable that Heart Lake, with swimming avail- able, is by long odds the most popular area. Greenwood was opened in August; therefore its attendance is not indicative ?f the popularity of this beautiful area. It is anticipated 1� -4- that the completed dam at Boyd and the new dam at Albion will add to the drawing power of these areas. So much development has taken place at the Conservation Areas that only a few highlights can be mentioned. Heart Lake The beach has been extended by bringing in additional sand and the roadways improved and paved. The attendance at this Area was over 190,000 during the year, with a peak of 7,500 on one holiday. A nature trail was established here during the year. An activity house known as "Heart Lake Centro"has been designed and it is proposed, with your concurrence, to construct the building at a cost of *100,000, early in 1959. The building has been designed to blend with the beautiful surroundings and to afford a multiple use for the visitors to the Area. As has been mentioned, the presence of an excellent body of water, with swimming, boating and fishing, at Heart Lake makes it our premier attraction to Area visitors. Albion Hills It is a remarkable fact that each of our Areas has a charm and beauty of.its own. Albion, with its rolling hills, beautifully treed slopes, and clear flowing stream, presents a vista which is very appealing to the lover of open spaces. Largest in area, it presents unlimited scope for large groups of people to enjoy uncrowded pleasure in the open. One had only to witness a junior trout fishing day in May, with 500 eager young sportsmen distributed along the stream, to be completely con- vinced that Albion is enchanted. The opening of the proposed dam and reservoir in the summer of 1959 will add the attraction of swimming. Albion possesses a fine workshop in which some 500 picnic tables were built during the year, as well as signs for nature trails and for picnic areas. During the year, roads were improved, 25,000 trees planted, a land use demonstration area completed, and many other improvements carried out. Boyd Area The Boyd Area, located just above Woodbridge, is -5- characterized by an entrance road and vista of which any locality would be justly proud. Our staff has used imagination and great skill in enhancing the beauty of the approach into Boyd. the year, the landscaping was the nursery developed. This ing special shrubs and plants available from commercial sou small seasonal conservation d dam provides a small swimming children. Greenwood During completed, parking lots built and nursery is for the purpose of grow - for wildlife purposes not ordinarily rtes. During the late summer, a am was completed at the Boyd. This area, particularly attractive to The Greenwood Area was opened by the Minister of Planning and Development on August 6th, 1958. In attendance were some 4.50 invited guests. The staff had worked mightily to com- plete roads, clean the area, construct the entrances and, in general, have everything in excellent shape. Greenwood is a fine area characterized by a large growth of cedars, steep banks to Duffin's Creek and plenty of interesting trails to be investigated by the inquiring hikers. In every way, it compares favourably with the presently established large Areas in the western part of the region. Glen Haffy An area of 165 acres at the top of Albion Township and near the north - western tip of the .authority urea, possesses peculiar features of its own. High up on the escarpment, it has many springs and will lend itself to trout ponds and fishing. The staff has been quietly preparing it for a planned opening in 1959. Some 15,000 yearling trout, obtained from the Department of Lands and Forests, are being raised in three ponds. The house has been renovated for occupancy of a superintendent. The open- ing of this Area will add interesting features to our Conservat- ion Areas scheme. A winter works development program has been initiated, _:hich is giving employment to some 24 men in addition to our 'egular staff. -6- While the Dalziel and Edgeloy Areas ar€: properly conser- vation areas, it is proposed to deal with them under the work of the Historical Sites Advisory Board. A very happy association connection with Conservation Areas was begun in 1958. I refer to our arrangement with the Canadian National Institute for the Blind to handle all refresh- ment concessions. The C.N.I.B. took over and ran rzfreshmcnt booths at Heart Lake, Boyd, Albion and Greenwood. This arrange- ment has proven to be mutually satisfactory in every way. The Institute is set up to handle such operations on a very sound commercial basis from its headquarters on Bayview Avenue. While the operation was at a slight financial loss to the Institute, during the organization period in 1956, it is anticipated that the long range operation cannot help but yield a mutually profitable enterprise. In addition to its routine operation of concessions, the Institute has stood ready to supply the Authority with refreshments on the occasion of special tours and similar events. We hope that our present happy association with the C.N.I.B. will continue long into the future. Reforestation and Land Use This Advisory Board had an active year. Its activities were considerably increased and renewed efforts were put forth to interest farmers in conservation methods. Tree planting by six machines was carried out, and 85,000 trees planted on Author- ity property and 300,000 on private: lands. Eighty -five farm ponds were surveyed, and a subsidy paid on forty. New reforestat- tion land, in the amount of 200 acres, was acquired at the end of the year, bringing our total Authority Forest to 1217 acres. During the year, a mist sprayer was purchased, and most of the Authority elm trees sprayed against the Dutch Elm disease. A significant Dutch Elm disease survey was made in selected sections of most of the municipalities in the Authority, and the results of the survey made available to all municipalities. The survey showed that the disease is well entrenched and that up to eight percent of the elms are infected. A _7_ Three land judging competitions were sponsored; a significant grassed waterway demonstration was completed; and a farm pond survey commenced. Historical Sites The Pioneer Museum has drawn an increasing number of visitors. Over 20,000 visitors to the Museum during its open season from May 15th to September 15th is evidence of its popularity. It was made available to school groups in May and June, and again in September and October, with a total of 2700 school children attending. ;. successful Pioneer Festival was held at the Museum on September 27, 1958, attended by 4500 people. The Museum, under the direction of Mr. r.. Colucci, Curator, has developed to the status of an internationally recognized institut- ion. It was rated by a museum research authority last year as perhaps the finest of its kind in Canada. The Edgeley Pioneer Village has steadily developed under the careful guidance of the Technical Sub - Committee. This Sub - Committee under the chairmanship of Professor T. F. McIlwraith has given the most careful thought to reconstruction details at the Village. They have been most painstaking, working with the architect, B. Napier Simpson, Jr., to ensure that only authentic buildings and settings will be included in the Village. The first house, original house, smoke house, piggery and barn have been 75% renovated. The Burr house, vintage 1$30, a gift of the Bank of Montreal, was moved to the site from Woodbridge. Other buildings will be moved in as they are located and become avail- able. It has been decided to make the Village 'live', that is, with animals and normal farm and village functions in operation. It is hoped to open the Village in 1959, a plan which may require abandonment due to a changed policy of financing. Historic markers were unveiled at Summerville and Brampton during the year. Information and Education The public relations of the Authority have been excellent during the year. Under the guidance of the Board and with the 20 -$- close co- operation of the Ontario Editorial Bureau, our public relations counsel, the Authority has enjoyed excellent press coverage in all local and suburban newspapers and many times in other centres. The work of the Authority was several times dis- cussed editorially. Several radio and television appearances were made by various chairmen, members of the authority and the staff. The public is being made increasingly aware of the important work of this body. The Information and Education Advisory Board held two junior trout fishing days on May 10th and 24th, attended by 500 children each day. Public speaking contests on Conservation were held and the finalists presented addresses which their elders would have been proud to present. A boy scout bird -house building contest was also held. The Board had printed a leaflet "Some Plants Suitable for Wildlife" and also a Conservation Areas folder with map. Fifteen buses of school children were taken on all day conservation tours. This was in addition to nature tours and Pioneer Museum visits. A plan to construct a conservation camp school has been initiated, and it is hoped that with the support of the Department of Education and other educational groups the plans will go forward to complete this school at the Albion Hills. Members of the Authority and the staff have given some thirty -five lectures during the year. In addition to all the above, exhibits were sponsored at the Sportmen's Show and various fall fairs, and a scrapbook competition successfully completed. Flood and Pollution Control One of the most important achievements have been the preparation of a ninety page brief on "Water Conservation and Flood Control ". This brief, which was prepared by our own staff, headed by Mr. Donald Clough, drew upon the combined knowledge of the staff, the Department of Planning and Development and several consulting engineers. The brief is very comprehensive, 2� -9- outlining a co- ordinated flood control and conservation scheme to cost $39,000,000 over a ten -year period. Accepted in principle by the Authority, the brief has been presented to the Executive of Metropolitan Toronto and will be explained to area Councils before being taken to the Governments of Canada and Ontario. There are now fourteen water control schemes either completed or in process. Scheme WC 1 - Goodwood This scheme was completed and officially opened on Thursday, October 3, 1958. Scheme WC 2 - Humber River Channel Improvements This scheme has been completed and some property obtained from the Lambton Golf and Country Club, by gift. Scheme WC 3 - Etobicoke Creek, Town of Brampton This scheme awaits the action of the town to provide for the acquisition of flood plain lands. Scheme WC 4 - Lower Humber The Authority was forced to expropriate the few remaining lands which it was unable to negotiate. The scheme embraces the Humber Valley from Dundas Street to the lake. Four weirs have been constructed between the Old Mill and Dundas St. at a cost of $80,000 and 500 large concrete blocks were purchased in Chippewa and brought to the site for retaining walls. The City of Toronto transferred its holdings in the area to the Authority and the agreement with Metropolitan Toronto makes the Metro Parks Committee responsible for operation of the area as a natural park. Scheme WC - Lower Highland Creek This scheme calls for the acquisition of one thousand acres of flood plain lands at a total cost of $800,000 over a four -year period. The scheme, having been approved by the Minister and the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto, is now under way, and some 200 acres including 31 houses have been acquired during 1958. Since the scheme extends over a four -year period, it -10- required approval of the Ontario Municipal Board. e Scheme WC 6 - Black Creek Channel, Scarlett Rd. to Humber River This scheme comprises a concrete lined channel through the Lambton Golf Club and is a part of the Black Creek Flood Control Scheme. The Contract was let late in 195$ and should be completed in May, 1959, at a cost of *5$5,000. Jas. F. MacLaren is the consulting engineer. Scheme WC $ - Etobicoke Creek Reconstruction of Pier at Mouth of Creek This pier reconstruction was completed in December, 1958, thus correcting another of Hurricane Hazel's destructive actions. Mr. Orville Chisholm was the consulting engineer, and Canadian Dredge and Dock, the contractors. The contract figure was $64743.73. Scheme 7C 9 - Flood Line Mapping Proof copies of the Rouge, Duffin, Petticoat, Don and Highland have been received, and it is anticipated that all maps will be available early in 1959. These maps are essential for the completion of final flood control works. Scheme WC 10 - Black Creek Flood Control Plan While this plan has been included in the Flood Control Brief which is to be submitted to the Federal and Provincial Governments, it has been found necessary to proceed with certain parts. aithorization has been received to proceed with the second stage of the plan, which consists of the construction of a flood retardation dam north of Wilson .venue. Mr. Jas. F. MacLaren is proceeding with the design. Scheme WC 11 - Humber River, Weston This scheme has been approved by the Minister of Planning and Development and by Metropolitan Toronto. Property negotiat- ions are under way, weirs and channel improvements are being designed for construction in 1959. Scheme WC 12 - Don River, York Mills This scheme has been approved, properties acquired and the engineering design completed. It has been approved by the Minister and Metropolitan Toronto. Construction should take 2 �� place in 1959. Scheme WC 14 - Don River, East York This scheme has been drawn up and the brief is ready for adoption by the Authority and submission to the municipalities. Scheme WC 15 - Don River, West Branch from Eglinton Avenue to Lawrence Avenue This scheme is being prepared by the staff and will be submitted to you early in 1959. Scheme WC 16 - Don River, Finch and Bayview An option has been obtained on 40 acres of land and a scheme is being prepared for action in 1959. Scheme WC 17 - Thistletown Flood Plain Land Acquisition Options have been taken on five properties, and a scheme is in preparation for acquisition of the properties in 1959. Flood Warning System The flood warning system has been reorganized and is operating most efficiently as a staff activity under the direct- ion of a special committee which was established. In conclusion, your :: uthority has enjoyed an active and successful yegr. We can face the future with the hope that 1959 will see our plans for comprehensive water conservation and flood control approved. G.

The duties presently performed by the Patrol Officers were examined and each function evaluated and compared to the time apportioned. The Patrol Officers were interviewed and their problems discussed. A priority list of functions was drawn up and compared with the terms of reference in the Personnel Policy, Position Description, Conservation Patrol Officer. The plans for policing metropolitan Parks, including Authority lands within Metropolitan Toronto, were reviewed by the Committee and discussed with their representatives. committee. The following report is respectfully submitted by this M. G. Johnson D. Sutter W. HcLean F. L. Lunn In examining the duties perfomed by our Conservation Patrol Officers, a wide range was found, including Conservation Area patrolling, investigation of fish and game law violations, investig- ation of private complaints of a very diversified nature on such . matters as pollution, dumping of garbage, vandalism and many others. The terms of reference are less specific and, unfortunately, through no fault of their own, our patrol officers have assumed a tremendous scope in activities. There are matters of more concern than such general terms of inference might imply but do not stipulate. Particularly when the growth of Conservation Areas in an undeveloped as well as a developed state is taking place so rapidly, do we realize the need• of well co- ordinated attention to our own land. There were times when it was possible to give a great deal of attention to private lands and the problems so connected. However, with holdings approaching 4000 acres beyond Metro alone, police supervision is a dire need now and will increase hand in hand with public use and acreage owned. During the current year it has been necessary to employ off -duty officers from local municipalities and the Ontario Provincial Police. As well, regulations pertaining to the filling and use of river valleys may be drawn up by any Conservation Authority and made law by Order in Council. Patrols of inspection and steps to enforcement must be made to achieve the value of such legislation. The flood warning system, becoming more and more detailed as it is developed and refined, requires a certain amount of patrol work preferably by officers of the Conservation Authority. The function of the Patrol Officer system has become increasingly demanding and important in the Authority program. It has not, however, grown in status, size and organization proportion- ately. 285 2 During the holiday season, two officers are responsible for patrolling and supervising close to 25UU acres of developed Conservation Area land, not to mention a sizeable acreage of undeveloped land. A staff report on the extension of the Conser- vation areas program, currently under examinatiqn by the Authority, demonstrates the need for an extension of the patrol officer system. A second report, .nr- santly being prepared by personnel of the Mechanical Engineering Department of the University of Toronto, will, upon presentation, propose a flood warning system in which Authority officers play a responsible role. We should also appreciate the desirability of some means of providing occasional relief and holidays for the patrol staff. However, the Authority lands within the boundaries of Metropolitan Toronto, developed under agreement with Metro Toronto Parks Department, will be supervised by Metro personnel. The rules and regulations will be similar to Authority regulations. Co- operation will be forthcoming, according to their representatives, on matters of concern to the Authority, such as the filling or misuse of valley lands which can be enforced through legislation potentially available under the Conservation Authorities Act. In view of the present situation•of inadequate patrol and future expansion of facilities, public use, regulations and the flood warning system, it is therefore recommended that: • (1) the terms of reference, Conservation Patrol Officer, be revised to indicate the necessity of co- ordinated attention to Author- ity lands, with emphasis on enforcing rules and regulations of Conservation Areas, including the Games and Fisheries Act the Liquor Control Act, Traffic Act and other pertinent legislation; the supervision of undeveloped lands the enforcement of regul- ations regarding fi]I;.ne and lanrl USG in valley lands; the enfor- rzmont wf uy -laws on the dumping of refuse around Areas and on routes to Areas. (2) The solicitor of the Authority be requested to report on the means of enforcing certain rules and regulations with a view towards providing authorative legislation for such control where presently lacking. (3) The patrol officer system be. enlarged to comprise a total of three officers and one chief, the latter with experience in • policing public areas, processing violations and supervising officers. (4) The patrol officers operate on a river valley basis, one each to the R.D.H.P., Don, Humber, and Etobicoke- Mimico watershed; the chief patrol officer having the lightest anticipated patrol load to allow for carrying out supervisory and administrative duties. (5) The system be further expanded as the need arises (in lieu of hiring outside supervisory assistance) as the development of the Authority's program continues, so forming a staff of officers competent in the supervision of the public, enforcing Authority and pertinent legislation, public education, and participation in the flood warning system in a year -round properly balanced program with the emphasis on Authority hold- ings and interests.

PROPOSED PLAN OF DEVELOPMENT BOLTON COMMUNITY CONSERVATION AREA Introduction At the May 14, 1959 meeting of the Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority, the following action was taken. "Scheme CA 11, Bolton Community Conservation i.rea That Scheme CL 11, h Scheme for the Acquisition and Development of the Bolton Community Conservation Area, be adopted, and that in this connection the following action be taken, (a) The Village of Bolton be designated as the benefitt- ing municipality; (b) That the Minister of Planning and Development be requested to approve of the scheme and a grant of 50% of the cost thereof; (c) That the Authority enter into an agreement with the Village of Bolton for the operation and maintenance of the area; (d) That Mr. W. 0. thisholrm be engaged as consulting engineer for the design and supervision of the con- struction of the seasonal dam proposed in the scheme." The Plan The Bolton Community Conservation Area has been designed to function as a Conservation Area within the terms of the Con- servation Authorities Act, R.S.O. 1950 as amended to 1959, Section 15, sub - sections (a), (g) and (gg), and according to principles established by the Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation' Authority. The sixteen acre property, which comprises the area, is almost entirely flood plain land, sporadically dotted with trees. To wisely manage this area as flood plain has been the prime concern. By its nature, however, the land is suitable for recreational use, and the basic facilities necessary for such use have been provided for. 28 8 - 2 (a) Swimming - It is proposed to create a swimming area at the location shown on the plan, by the construction of a temporary dam and the grading of a beach area 250 feet in length on the south side of the river west of the dam. It is recommended that the beach area be grassed to the water's edge, and that sand be provided for the swimming area. This, it is anticipated, will facilitate maintenance. (b) Picnicking - The plan shows the major picnic area to be east of the swimming area, on the property presently owned by the Village of Bolton. As the use which might be expected cannot be accurately estimated, 50 picnic tables will be provided on an experimental basis; this number to be increased or reduced as required. Past experience has shown that it is wise to. separate picnicking from swimming; thus it is recommended that no tables be provided in the swimming area. Tables could be provided for the regulated. sports area, if required. (c) Sports - In keeping with principles established by the Authr ority, it is intended that only a site for sports be provided. The use of this site will be left to the discretion of the Village, but any improvements to the. site must receive the written approval of the authority. (d) Group hctivities - The building presently used as a scout house will remain intact, to be used as the Village sees fit. (e) Rest and Relaxation - An area shown as "Solitude Acres" has been set aside for the location of park type benches where people might sit in relative quiet, away from the activity of the rest of the area. Consideration has been given to rp- channelling the river to reduce the hazard of erosion at Glasgow Stroet. The new channel woul d cut through this area, making it even more separate than at the present time. Estimates comparing the cost of re- channelling to protective rip -rap works have been called for, but as yet no figures are available. 289 - 3 - (f) Accommodation - The vehicle entrance has been located on the south side of Glasgow Street at the west end of the area. This has been done for two reasons: (a) an entrance via Hick- man Street would not be suitable due to the inadequate bridge which must be crossed; (b) it was necessary to locate as close to the swimming area and an adequate space for parking as possible, in order to reduce the length of road which would have to be constructed. The parking lot has been located in the north -west corner of the area, so as not to interfere with the foot paths leading to the swimming and picnic areas, and to be within reasonable walking distance. One hundred and twenty-four cars are provided for. :. separate entrance off Hickman Street leads to a parking lot for twenty cars. This lot will have restricted use, being limited to users of the: scout house. The main pedestrian entrance will be off Hickman Street, this being the closest point to the centre of the Village. (g) Facilities - It is proposed to use the buildings presently found in the Bolton Camp, wherever possible, The large build- ing used as a scout house will remain intact. The largest of the cabins will be moved to a new location to serve as a con- cession building. second cabin will be used for a service building. It is proposed to provide comfort stations at the locations shown on the plan, and to use buildings of a type similar to those already used in Conservation areas. Recommendations It is recommended that (i) The Village of Bolton approve this proposed plan; (ii) The Village of Bolton agree to pass by -laws prohibiting parking on Hickman and Glasgow Streets, as shown on the plan; (iii) The Village of Bolton pass by -laws closing the public roads included in the Conservation Area. $.12.59 290 Vetropottan Joronto cad Region anzervation ...Augori% MINUTES Executive Committee Meeting Jan. 13, 1960 Wednesday, MINUTES Noy 20 The Executive Committee met at the Don Valley Golf C114 on January 13th commencing at 9.30 a.m. Present were: Chairman Vice Chairman Members Secretary Treasurer Director of Operations Dr. G.

Farm Pond Assistance Program 1959 The following table is a completed summary of the ponds engineered and subsidies paid in the years 1957, 1958 and 1959. i. Year Engineered No. of Subsidies Paid 1957 61 12 1958 94 40 1959 272 67 Total 427 119 -7- There are 16 applications for farm pond assistance presently on hand for 1960. In addition to Paul Flood and Tom Barber, it was necessary to hire extra help. Keith Carson, a Woodbridge High School Science Teacher, assisted for the month of August. Jim Brad- ford, a University of Toronto student, assisted Friday afternoons and Saturdays throughout October, November and part of December. Wally Wand, a member of the staff, also assisted the farm pond assistance program in October, November and December. The increased number of applications for farm pond assistance is expected to continue and it has been necessary to consider hiring a second technical assistant in Reforestation and Land Use for 1960. Tile Drainage Assistance Program . Seventeen subsidies were paid on tile drainage completed in 1959.' These subsidies amounted to $3443.$$. Grass Water1ray Assistance Program There was one application for grass waterway assistance in 1959, with a $200.00 subsidy paid. Hydro Seeding Experiment Several steep erodible banks were seeded by this method in the Albion Hills and Boyd Conservation Areas in the month of October. The seed- ing operation was followed by an application of straw mulch. The straw mulch machine breaks up bales of straw and shoots the straw through a nozzle to provide a mat over the newly seeded areas. Liquid asphalt binder,known as asphalt emulsion, is injected into the airborne flow of the straw mulch to provide tact to keep the straw in place, thus reducing wind and water erosion. This method of establishing turf, where soil erosion is to be pre- vented and beautification is desired, may be as effective as sodding, which costs approx four times as much. The results of this work will be more fully assessed in the spring and summer of 1960. Pasture Demonstration in the Albion Hills Conservation Area During the past year, Mr. S. M. Blair, a local resident, has been renting the pasture in the Albion Hills Conservation Area. t number of beef cattle were placed in the pasture for the summer up until approx the end of September. After the cattle had been removed from the Area, a large number of sheep and a few goats were placed in the Area. The sheep and goats during October and November overgrazed this Area. Damage to the pasture and the potential for soil eros- ion is expected to be quite serious. It will be necessary to wait for the spring of 1960 to evaluate the damage done to the pasture. It is recommended therefore, due to pasture mismanagement, that a more satisfactory arrangement be considered for the coming season. Replacement of Elms A sub - committee of J. W. McCullough, Wm. Monaghan and T.E. Barber, discussed the possibility of assisting rural landowners in replace- ment of elms. A report of the discussion will be given to the next Reforestation and Land Use meeting.

Thereport is presented in draft form in order that it can be considered by members of the Authority and the Municip- ality of Metropolitan Toronto, in order that the proposed schedul- ing will not conflict with other works being considered by Metro- politan Toronto. An addendum is added to the original report, which includes schemes for which financing has been committed and works have commenced. Project schedules are presented to allow optimum planning of the proposed dams, reservoirs, channel improvements and flood plain acquisitions described in the Brief on Flood Control and Water Conservation. FINANCIAL ASPECTS The cost of the complete program is estimated to be 04,121,300. It is proposed that this sum be spread over a ten year period with approximately 1 /10th of the monies to be spent in any one year. Thus, for the purposes of planning, $63.4 million will be available per year. The total allotment for acquisition of flood plain lands is $11,600,000. On the average then, $1.16 million will be spent each year in acquisition of flood plains. For scheduling purposes approximately $2.25 million would thus be available each year for the acquisition, engineering and construction of the dams and reservoirs. It will be noted in the proposed schedules that in the early years, slightly more than this amount has been allotted in order to establish the projects, proportionately less money being available then for acquiring flood plain lands. -2- BASIS OF SCHEDULING 1. Social: In the planning of the construction of these reservoirs, an attempt was made to schedule completion so that each region would have a recreational area early in the 10 year period: Maximum use would then be obtained from these sites and much needed recreational benefits would be realized as soon as possible: As seen from the charts, recreation lakes will be available in the west, central and eastern regions by 1962. 2. Engineering: (a) Preliminary Engineering: This work involves detailed surveys, borings, hydrological studies and preliminary design. Due to the nature of the work, the preliminary engineering must be scheduled fora start in late winter or early spring. Irrespective of the project size, six months are allotted for this phase of the work for each dam, where possible. (b) Final Engineering: The time required for the final design bears a direct relation to the project size. For planning purposes it is estimated that the final engineering phase will be 1 /3.of the construction time. In most instances, this work is scheduled for completion 1 or 2 months ahead of the construction season. This allows sufficient time for calling of the tenders and organization of the work. (c) Construction: The estimates of construction time are taken from the Brief. A maximum period of construction of $ months is used, i.e. March to October. It is assumed that very little construction can take place in the winter months. In some projects, a 7 month construction period is used to ease scheduling, while for LOWER BOLTON a 9 month period is chosen to prevent construction extending past a 4 year period. With the exception of the EBENEZER- CLAIREVILLE project (see following page) single control units involving more than 1 reservoir are.scheduled so that the upstream dam will be completed before the lower dam. This will afford protection for the downstream project. -3 Schedule No. 2 195 1.

The program follows the adopted policy of acquiring lands to enlarge the existing Conservation Areas to their maximum size. In addition, the plan provides for the acquisit- ion of new areas, which for various reasons may not be feasible, if acquisition is left too long. (b) Use of Areas The summer of 1959 has been a most successful one for Con- servation Areas. Attendance at the Areas has far exceeded that of 195$; three of the Areas having received maximum use all summer. The following chart summarizes the extent of Conservation Area use in the years 195$ and 1959. Area No. Vehicles 195$ No. Vehicles Estimated No. 1959 of Visitors Albion 10,449 23,080 103,860 Boyd 14,520 40,211 180,949 Dalziel 19,407 Glen Haffy 6,020 27,090 Greenwood 2,395 16,17$ $5,$01 Heart Lake 43,649 61,$89 278,500 { 71,013 147,37$ 695,607 This attendance has produced a total revenue of $76,594.42, as compared to $3$,000.00 for the whole of 1958. (c) Scope of the Program The heavy summer use of the Conservation Areas has created the problem of overuse. Overuse is particularly evident in the Albion Hills, Heart Lake and Boyd Conservation Areas, where the summer crowds have been most demanding. Last year the Authority initiated extension programs for these areas and was successful in acquiring several hundred acres of additional lands. The extension of the Conservation Areas, however, cannot be effectively developed until the parcels of land are consolidated into one large continu- ous area. It is expected that the Conservation Areas, having been brought to their maximum size and fully developed, will be able to handle more easily the large crowds attending them, and the problem of overuse will be lessened. This proposed program provides for the completion, within three years, of the extensions to the Albion Hills, Boyd, Cold Creek, Glen Haffy, Greenwood and Heart Lake Conservation Areas. These Areas, being complete, will be ready for full development in three years. The advisability of consolidating our present Areas as soon as possible is readily apparent. It is not feasible to carry out any development in the extensions while they are separate from the main areas, thus this land must be idle until land purchases are complete. Idle land is not good conservation practise. Most of the land which the Authority purchases for conservation areas is class IV to class VI land for general agriculture and can best be put to use for recreation purposes. While the parcels are discontinuous, they cannot be used for.agriculture and are difficult to administer for recreation purposes. Thus it is essential that the present Con- servation Area extensions be completed as soon as possible. -2- The land acquisition program also provides for the acquisition of the proposed Bond Lake Conservation Area. Due to the expected cost of property for this area, the amount has been distributed over three years. The acquisition of Bond Lake would fill a gap in the distribution of Conservation Areas across the watersheds. The following chart summarizes the proposed acquisitions for each year of the program. Conservation Areas Schedule of Land Acquisition Section (i) Area 1960 1961 1962 Albion $52,000 $52,000 $20,000 Bond Lake 50,000 Boyd 272,000 140,000 100,000 Cold Creek 17,500 Glen Haffy 60,000 Greenwood 5,000 21,000 3$,000 Heart Lake 72,000 Other Areas 150,000 150,000 Total $468,500 $363,000 $368,000 Section (ii) Lower Duffin Creek Lower Rouge 205,000 100,000 'QV To be referred to Flood and Pollution Control (d) Section (i) Lands to be Acquired under Conservation Areas Schemes 1. Albion Hills The Albion Hills Conservation Area was purchased and initially developed by the Humber Valley Conservation Authority in 1956. In that year the 530 acre property (21$ acres of reforest- ation land) was visited by 2000 people. This year over 110,000 people visited the Area, which has been increased to 61$ acres. Such a vast increase in use indicates the popularity of the Area. The final development of Albion Hills depends on the purchase of four additional properties. These, along with the present area, willrrovide a total of 9$0 acres of conservation land. Upon consolidation of the Area, it will be feasible to make considerable extensions to the road system, opening up large new picnic areas, in which the anticipated crowds can be dispersed. These purchases will also make available 40 acres of reforestation land, 50 acres of woodland and an additional 4,$00 feet of stream frontage.

Bond Lake At the June 18th, 1959 meeting of the Conservation Areas Advisory Board, a report concerning the proposed Bond Lake Con- servation Area was presented. The report and recommendations were adopted. Since that time the Area has received further study, and the site was visited by the members of this Advisory Board. The 300 acre property, containing a 60 acre lake, is very similar in nature to the Heart Lake Conservation Area. Studies have shown that: (a) the lake is suitable for a fish management program; (b) a beach larger than that at Heart Lake can be readily created; (c) the woodland surrounding the lake is virtually untouched, and would be very suitable for nature trail development; (d) there is ample table land for parking and large picnic areas; (e) about 10% of this table land should be.reforested. Bond Lake Land 2,cquisition Schedule 1960 1961 & 1962 $50,000 The balance 3. Boyd The Boyd Conservation Area was opened for public use in August, 1957. During the 1958 season over 14,000 cars visited the Area. 1959 saw this figure nearly tripled when approximately 40,000 cars passed through the gates. At the present time, Boyd consists of 698 acres in discon- tinuous parcels. Final development of the Area depends on consolid- ation of these parcels, which will require the purchase of seven properties. Upon completion in three years, the Area would consist of 1190 acres, including 150 acres of additional woodland, 1.5 miles of additional stream frontage, and several large new picnic areas. These assets, plus the advantages of one large consolidated area, will enable a development program which will accommodate the anticipated use. Boyd Land Acquisition Schedule 1960 1961 1962 $272,000* $140,000 $100,000 422,500 carry -over from 1959 purchase. 4. Cold Creek The Cold Creek Conservation Area is a 250 acre property consisting of a :_arge swamp and dense bushland. This year 200 acres were added to the original 50 acre Fa rcel, thus completing the purchase of -;he swamp area. One property lying to the north, consisting of 100 acres, will complement the area; the property having 25 acres of woodland, a large pond site and a large portion in need of reforestation. Cold Creek Land Acquisition Schedule 1960 1961 1962 $17,500 3 b2 -4- 5. Glen Haffy The Glen Haffy Conservation Area is a 341 acre property situated on the edge and flank of the Niagara escarpment. South of.Glen Haffy and separated by one township lot, is the 150 acre Dingle Conservation Area. The complete development of these :areas should depend on their being joined together, so that they can be serviced from one centre. For this, thepurchase of the intervening property is necessary. The land between the two areas is very rugged, consisting of 15 acres of woodland, many steep slopes which require reforestation, and an abundance of rock outcrops and large boulders. Glen Haffy Land Acquisition Schedule 1960 1961 1962 $60,000 6. Greenwood The 406 acre Greenwood Conservation Area lies in the valley of the Duffin Creek. There is not a great deal of land which is still available in this valley, but the present Area can be extended to the north, bringing the total acreage to 670 acres. It is planned this year to purchase 165 acres which lies to the north, and the acquisitions proposed in this plan are designed to link the present Area to the land to be purchased this year. Such a program will reciuire the purchase of seven different parcels of land. These parcels lie on a sandy plain which has been deeply cut by the Duffin Creek. The presence of good gravel. deposits has resulted in the exploitation of three gravel pits, all of which should be graded and' reforested. These parcels also include 1500 feet of additional stream frontage and nearly 30 acres of woodland. Since the Flood Control Brief provides for an $2 acre reservoir site within the Greenwood Conservation Area, these additional parcels will be necess- ary to first of all accommodate the anticipated larger crowds, and secondly to compensate for the acreage lost to the reservoir site. Greenwood Land Acquisition Schedule 1960 1961 1962 $5,000 $21,000 08,000 7. Heart Lake Heart Lake has been the authority's most popular Conser- vation Area. In its three years of operation, it has each year had more visitors than any other Area. It is not unusual on a summer Sunday for Heart Lake to be filled beyond its reasonable capacity early in the afternoon, and for the gates to be closed in order to control the crowd: Not a great deal can be done to increase the recreational facilities of Heart Lake due to the limitations of the Lake itself. iAtempts to disperse the crowds, however, are being made by spread - ing..various facilities throughout the Area. To the south of the present area lies a 90 acre parcel of fine woodland which would be a valuable addition to the Area and could be well used in the nature program. Thus its acquisition is recommended. Heart Lake Land Acquisition Schedule 1960 1961 1962 $72,000 -5- (d) Section (ii) 363 Two areas are proposed in this section for purchase as Conservation Areas, but it is recommended that this be carried out by the Flood and Pollution Control Advisory Board. The two areas involved are the Lower Duffin Creek and the Lower Rouge Conservation Areas. Both these areas extend from Highway 401 to Lake Ontario and include the valley flats of these streams. These areas have exceptional importance in a flood control program because of their great susceptibility to flooding. Development here would necessitate the removal of flood vulnerable buildings and the construction of certain channel improvements. It is felt that these major operations fall in line with the work of flood control; thus the matter of their acquisition should be referred to the Flood and Pollution Control Advisory Board. (e) Recommendations It is recommended that: (i) this proposed program be adopted as a basis of the land acquisitions which this Board intends to recommend to the Authority during the next three years for Conservat- ion Areas, to be included in the annual budgets; (ii) the staff be authorized to negotiate options on the lands included in this program; (iii)Section (ii) of part (d) in this report be referred to the Flood and Pollution Control Advisory Board. 4.11.59 364 eiropotEart Yoronto and /io,i UNAPPROVEY ��ervatior� �c�ihorit� DRAFT ONL .

The Peel County Land Judging ompetition, held near Caledon, on July 14, 1959 attracted 38 contestants, (3 seniors, 15 intermediates and 20 juniors). The evening banquet at Caledon was well attended. The competition, prizes and banquet expenses were equally divided between Metro and Credit Valley Conservation Authorities. Our cost amounted to X12$.72. The York County Land Judging Competition, scheduled for July 21st was cancelled. The lack of response was probably due to the very busy time of the year for contestants. The Ontario County Land Judging Competition, held near Manchester, attracted 49 contestants. The majority were senior farmers and intermediates.

AUTHORITY FOREST JANUARY 1960 381 The period covered in this report is from the beginning of the Department's fiscal year in April 1, 1959 to the present. The fiscal year began with a limited planting operation. A total of 17000 red and white pine were planted as refill and re- planting of fail areas in the Church and Headquarters Tracts. Planting was followed by the annual spring plowing of fireguards. Approximately ten miles of fireguards are plowed twice yearly to a width of 16 feet around plantations. Small infestations of sertifer sawfly were found and sprayed. Populations of this insect are not threatening as yet, but it is on the increase, and a larger spraying program is expected next summer. Christmas tree pruning was carried out in July and $15 trees were tagged for sale. These were sold in November at a fairly good price. From the same plantation 200 very low quality trees were sold to an airport for runway markers. !: hardwood cutting operation which had bogged 'down the previous winter due to the extreme snow conditions was cleaned up. This operation produced 30 cords of fuelwood and 6100 board feet of sawlogs. 111 of the fuelwood was sold, and we expect to dispose of the sawlogs in the very near future. i new road was built into the Ramm property and internal fences removed in preparation for planting in the spring of 1960. ! total of 119,500 trees will be planted on this property as soon as the weather is fit to get underway. An unusual product from the planting preparation has been fence rails, To date the Parks Department of Toronto have purchased close to 3000 of these rails at 15¢ apiece f.o.b. the forest. At the present time the plantation in the Peel Tract is being crop -tree pruned. Growth in the red pine on.this area indicate that the stands will be ready for thinning in two or three years. This will mark the first commercial thinning of a plantation in the Metro Toronto and Region Authority Forest. W. T.

The Technical Advisory Committee met on Thursday, March 26th and, after a short discussion in Professor Mcllwraith's office, proceeded to North York and Peel Counties to look at a number of structures which might prove suitable for the Pioneer Village. Mr. Colucci and Mr. Simpson have found a number of buildings in this part of the Province, which the owners are willing to present to the Pioneer Village. There would remain, of course, the cost of moving, which would certainly prove prohibitive in some cases. The Technical Advisory Committee believes that its recommendations must be made upon the following grounds: - 1. That the buildings are entirely suitable for the Pioneer Village, 2. That the cost of moving them is not out of proportion. Your Committee has had several problems in respect to the suitability of certain buildings. For example, a house may be suitable but have we any reason not to expect that a more suitable example will become available in five or ten years' time? If we pass up a building now in the hope of a better one, the present structure may be lost and we may be unable to find a better one. On the other hand, if we accept a building now and then have the • opportunity to obtain a more suitable one, we would find ourselves in the position of having more buildings than necessary of a single type. We have tried to use common sense in facing this question • and Our recommendations are made with full realization of this point, and with full realization likewise of the costs involved. Your Committee inspected five buildings and begs to report as follows on each: - 1. A small village house built about 1$4.0 and perhaps used as an office by a lawyer or doctor. This•is a very characteristic example of the common man's village house of the period; we need such a house and we feel that this one would be adequate and that it can be moved without excessive outlay. We recommend accepting the offer of the building by its owner and that it be moved to the Pioneer Village. It is located on Yonge Street south of Steeles Avenue. 2. From the road only we looked at the Greenbush Tavern which is now used as a private house. Mr. Colucci believes that the owner is likely to be willing to present the building to us but not at the present time. No recommendation is made regarding this building. 3. The Technical Advisory Committee looked at a church built about 1$53 at the corner of Steeles Avenue and Dufferin Street. All the members of the Committee agreed that it was a most attractive building which, if it could be obtained and moved, would fulfil our need for a church to be set up next to the cemetery. Two difficulties are the cost of moving upon which your Committee cannot give you an estimate and, secondly, the problem of reaching an agreement with the church authorities for the movement of the building. The congregation is Continuing Presbyterian but we under- stand that the building is used only as a Sunday School -2- and we also understand that the cost of keeping the building in repair is a heavy drain upon the few church members still living in this region. It seems possible therefore that the synod (if that is the governing body) might be willing to have the church moved and repaired if they would be willing moreover to have services on the Edgeley site; your Committee would strongly support this activity. However, we believe that rather careful discussions will have to be held before we can make any firm recommendation. It would be extremely helpful if any Member of the Board could or would locate a wealthy and public - spirited Presbyterian who might be willing to carry out this piece of work.. 4. On Keele Street, a short distance north of Steeles Avenue, the Committee looked at a group of farm buildings on the property of Mr. Bruce Snider who told the Committee that his land was in the process of being expropriated by the Canadian National Railway for its new line and freight yards. The buildings comprise a log house, several barns of the 1860's, and a plank house built about 1$20 which has been used as a barn for many years. Taken as a whole, they would be a very satisfactory collection of barns of the period and there is room enough for them on the Edgeley site. However, it would be completely impossible to move the old house although it could be taken down and reconstructed. The same is true of the actual barns. Your Committee recommends that an approach be made to the Canadian National Railway seeking their aid in the moving and setting up of the Snider farm buildings. We know the ill will which has been engendered in the area by the proposed railway cut -off; your Committee realizes that no railway can move anywhere without arousing local animosity and we believe that a certain amount of local good -will might be won by the railway if they took this action to preserve one of the old farms which goes back to the days of early settlement from Pennsylvania in the 1810's. 5. Your Committee inspected a blacksmith's shop in Nobleton. It is recommended that it is accepted and moved to Edgeley. It is a wooden building with a reasonably complete set of equipment in it, and we believe that it will fulfil our need for a shop of this kind. Conceivably, we might sometime be able to get a more picturesque stone structure, but I think we would have to ask ourselves what would be the justification for a stone building at Edgeley where the nearest limestone is several miles to the west, but where the Village was surrounded by suitable pine in the early days. Your Committee was unable to estimate the cost of moving this building but we came away with the impression that it was strong enough to permit movement, or if necessary, it could be taken to pieces and rebuilt at not too prohibitive a cost.

These are being sent to our mailing list of names, including interested general public, schools, associations, groups and organizations officers etc. Two lots of "The Wonder of Water" totalling 25,000 copies have been purchased at .04 per copy from the Soil-Conservation Society of America. These have been distributed, on request, to schools within Metropolitan Toronto. An additional 15,000 copies are on order, ar_ry will be distributed on request to schools outside Metro Toronto. These booklets-have met with wide acceptance from public school teachers, and the demand has been much greater than originally anticipated. The Royal Bank of Canada has been most generous in supplying copies of their excellent publications to the Authority without charge. We have secured 5,000 copies of "Wildlife Conservation ", and 2,000 to 3,000 copies each of their series.of Conservation Newsletters, 3. Photographic Corn etition There has been a continuing interest in the folders out- lining the "Four Seasons Photographic Competition ". There are over 200 inquiries on file, some for bulk supplies for camera club members. Since there is no deadline for entries up until the end of the competition on Nov. 1st, 1959, it is not possible to know at this time how many entries there will be. It is proposed to send out a 'reminding" letter to all camera club secretaries reminding them that the contest is in progress and to draw it to their members' attention. 4.. Sportsmen's Show Authority staff designed and constructed the exhibit for this year's Canadian National Sportmen's Show, March 13 -21.

These releases embraced the news which emanated from executive committee and other meetings during that time. During that same period, I am happy to report that there have been a total of 210 press clippings representing 2,114 columnar inches of type per- taining to the activities of the MTRCA. Practically all of these stories were directly or indirectly inspired by the news releases sent out by the Bureau. At the same time of news coverage the Our news releases are region and all of the cast per day. , we must not overlook the tremendous amount MTRCA has received by radio and TV news media. sent to all radio and TV outlets in the MTRCA stations have used them on at least one news- I would also like to report on four special radio and TV coverage events which were set up•by the Bureau. On Monday, Jan. Dr. Ross Lord, Authority chairman, was interviewed by Norm DePoe on CBC -TV News regarding the flood control brief. On Jan. 9, Dr. Lord was again interviewed on the details of the brief by June Dennis on the CJBC program "Audio ", which has a morning listener - ship in excess of 100,000. On March 3, the CBC -TV News Department sent its people to Woodbridge to film flood control preparations being made by the Authority. And on March 11, Dr. Lord was inter- viewed on the popular CBC -TV program "Tabloid" by Percy Saltzman and was accorded about 10 minutes of this very valuable television tine. . During the Jan. - March period, members of the Bureau's staff have attended 15 regular or special meetings of the Authority. They have also been instrumental in advising the daily newspapers, weeklies, radio and TV news departments concerning important up- coming meetings and events, and although, representatives of these media are not always in attendance at the meetings, nevertheless they are aware of them, and this regular contact ensures the Authority of use of its news releases. I am submitting herewith five books of press clippings pertain- ing to news releases issued by the Bureau during February and March. These clippings total 130 and represent 1,354 columnar inches of type. 5, They will serve to give members some indication of the pub- licity which the Authority receives from the daily and weekly press in'informing the public of its numerous activities. -0- I & E Meeting #1, 1959.

JUNE 17/59 During the two -month period, April-May, 1959, the Ontario Editorial Bureau, carried out the following public relations services for the Metropolitan Toronto & Region Conservation Authority: 14 news releases were issued to a regular list of 40 dailies, weeklies, radio and TV news stations. These releases embraced the news which emanated from executive committee and other meetings during that time. During that same period we received press coverage to the amount of: 226 press clippings from dailies and weeklies representing 3,47$ columnar inches. 25 photographs representing 5$0 columnar inches All of these stories and pictures were directly and indirectly inspired by the news releases sent out by the Bureau. At the same time, I wish to draw attention to the excellent coverage the MTRCA has received from radio and TV outlets. The news releases sent to the radio and TV stations in the area have been used extensively by these stations. In addition, more than 100 radio spot announcements promoting the conservation areas, the Pioneer Museum and the flood control program, have been prepared by the Bureau, and these are presently being used by the following radio stations at regular intervals, particularly during the week -end periods: CHUM, CKEY, CJBC and CBC, in Toronto and CFJB in Brampton. I also wish to point out that a great deal of time and effort was expended by Bureau staff in publicizing and attending the two fishing days at Albion Hills and Greenwood Conservation Areas. We were instrumental in obtaining good coverage in the daily press and the weekly press concerning the Albion Hills event, and a special TV filming of the Greenwood event was carried out and is scheduled to be shown on Sunday, June 21, on the program "Junior Magazine" -2- at 2.30 p.m. over CBLT - Channel 6. I would also refer you to an editorial which we prepared for release to the weekly newspapers dealing with the cost of the MTRCA program to the individual taxpayer, and it was well received and published by a number of the newspapers. Ono of the special projects undertaken successfully by the Bureau was the publicizing of the Conservation Camp School directed by Miss Blanche Snell of York Memorial Collegiate during the last three school days in May. Not only did we put out a comprehensive news release on the school which was used extensively by press and radio, but also, as the result of a personal visit to Bascom St. John, educational writer for the Globe be Mail, managed to have him write a four - article series on Miss Snell's school,bringing into it the efforts of the MTRCA field staff as instructors. This series was accorded the most sympathetic treatment by ItiZr. St. John, and I feel certain that we have a most valuable supporter in him in the Authority's program to have permanent year -round conservation camp facilities established. As a sequel to this series, Dr. Lord has undertaken to write to the publisher of the Globe & Mail commending the newspaper and Mr. St. John for the articles, and asking if it is possible to have the articles reprinted by the Globe & Mail in booklet form. These could then be made available to the MTRCA by the newspaper for distribution to organizations and persons whom we wish to have as supporters of the conservation camp school project. By using the series written by an impartial source, far more favourable reaction could be achieved than by our own promotional efforts. In the event that the Globe & Mail feels it is unable to reproduce the series, we plan to reproduce them ourselves for distribution. However, the possibility of Globe & Mail support is expected to be in the affirmative. We are submitting herewith a number of books of clippings pertaining to the period April -May for your perusal, and would ask that this report be tabled for distribution to members of the Authority. I would also recommend that members of this I & E -3- committee try at all times to keep the Executive and the membership as fully informed as possible about the work being undertaken by this committee and its public relations counsel. Only by constant communication and personal contact can we make our own efforts known to the full Authority. Respectfully submitted by John Grimshaw P. R.
