Page Ai4 — Terrace Standard, Wednesday, August 22, 1990 Coalition oppose f ; Kemano hydro power work TERRACE — A coalition of native and environmental groups says it will go to court unless the federal government conducts a review of Alcan’s $800. million Kemano hydro- electric completion project. The environmental review of the effects of the project on the Nechako River wasn’t done when.:Aican's: project was ap- proved two years aga, say the Rivers. Defence Coalition and the Carrier-Sekani Tribal Coun- cil, Alcan already takes water from the Nechako River to feed its existing generators which power its Kitimat smelter. -The 1987 agreement allows it to take more water to increase its hydro-electric capacity. Alcan and the federal govern- ‘ment. have worked out a series of measures to protect boost - Nechako ‘River fish stocks but the effects of the project are --guch ‘that: an overall assessment is needed, say the groups. | “. ‘We were promised a public hearing by successive federal -and provincial governments, but in the end Alcan. got ap- -proval for its plans without any Neighbours want reprieve from Kin hut parties TERRACE — Tired of being disturbed by late night, noisy parties at the Kinsmen hall | located in nearby Skeenaview Park, a group of bench residents want the city torestore peace and quiet to their neighbourhood. In a petition to council, the occupants of eight homes on Halliwell Ave. and Sparks St. said they had complained to the RCMP “on numerous occa- sions’’ about excessive noise, in- cluding two out of three nights on the July 1 weekend. Although rental of the hail was appropriate for many kinds of events, ‘We do not believe it is reasonable io rent for loud partying and drinking in the evening at the expense of the neighbourhood residents,”” they said. Petitioners asked that func- tions not be allowed at the Kinhut past 11 p.m, That’s the time in a city by-law after which loud noise isn’t permitted. While the Kinsmen club agrees householders should not have to put up with late night distur- bances, a spokesman said the club hopes a solution other than the proposed curfew can be found. Eric Johanson said organizers of many social events such as weddings and Christmas parties would no longer book the hall if the proposed restriction was put into effect. The resulting reduc- tion in revenue would in turn slow planned development of outdoor recreational facilities at the park. One ‘solution to the noise might be requiring renters to keep doors and windows closed that face residential areas, he said. “We're hoping to be able to _, neighbouring - come to an agreement we can both live with,’’ Johanson said. However, he added, the club woukl abide by whatever deci- sion is made by council. — A council committee will discuss the issue this week.
