Red Tape Tangle

“Mayor Stanley Dear and the Aldermen of Sidney are
excusably surprised and shocked to learn from the
Regional! Board that the: Town’s $500,000 sewer line im-
provement and treatment plant project cannot be im- |
plemented this year as they confidently expected...

Urged by the health authority to take action to clean
up the ocean at Sidney’s raw sewerage outfalls, council |
took action with commendable | promptitude.
Preliminary studies were commissioned and $6,000 was
_ Spent in the process.

It was perhaps naive to expect that the work would go
forward with equal celerity, the. progress of the
~ hospital ‘ ‘erash program’’. to provide extended care
beds is evidence to the contrary.

Presumably Sidney’s plan to build a- treatment plant
and improved sewers to obviate the distressing feed-
back at high tides is straight-forward and technically
feasible. In. the light of the universal: cry against
- pollution j in all its aspects one would expect the plan.t to
be. processed with some urgency. :
But the channels of. communication between the. in-
ception of a plan and its accomplishment become deeper
and more ‘tortuous: as. departments f government ex-
tend and are multiplied. . ;
One imagines procedures such as the. ollowing: the
health authority insists that a municipality must correct |
a pollution ‘problem; the. municipality - complies by
preparing a scheme, which it then relays fo the Regional
Board for checking and approval. i

ne. scheme must then be sanctioned by the Pollution

undertake. any Rathore of ‘the regional trunk: sewer pro-
gram. during. 1970.. Yet. Alderman Wilkie Gardner,

tral Mortgage | and Housing Corporation assured the
Town last fall that there would be. no trouble i in obtaining
finance for the w ‘ ‘ ;
Clearly, . Sidney council has procee d on. ‘that ex-
pectation, and. a better explanation for the year's delay
_ which now: seems inevitable should be forthcoming...
If only.a fraction of the vocal power expended | in the
struggle against pollution * were translated into effectual
‘action there would.be cause for satisfaction, not only i in
