RDKB will examine water service

last Saturday of every month

Times THE BOUNDARY CREEK

$1.10

The cost and benefits of establishing a water service for residents around the City of Greenwood will be examined, says the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB). RDKB CAO John MacLean presented a memo to the board at its March 27 meeting, outlining the history of the issue. For many years the city has been providing water to properties in Anaconda as well as on the north end of the city (both are rural and part of Electoral Area E), the memo stated. “The original agreements regarding provision of this service were with associations or groups that no longer exist. This has led to difficulties in determining the responsibility for capital maintenance and repair of infrastructure that is outside the city.” The city currently charges an equal water user fee to all users of the city’s water. The city has been taking a small portion of the fees paid by rural users and setting it aside in a reserve fund, which has a current balance of approximately $8,000; however, the memo states that this amount is not sufficient for the capital and maintenance needs of the water system outside the city boundaries. In the memo, MacLean proposes a service be established with the authority to raise funds. “In order to ensure that we are being fair to both the residents of the rural area and the

City of Greenwood, we need to determine the capital needs of the rural service area. We could then apply a reasonable capital replacement charge that would see to the infrastructure needs of the service area for the next 30 years.” He says the city could then take responsibility for the maintenance of the entire system with the knowledge that they would have long-term stable capital funding. The regional district will now put out a request for proposals to find a qualified engineering firm to look at the existing infrastructure, compare that to the normal standard for a service such as this and provide a cost per parcel over a 30-year

time frame. This information could then be used to establish water user rates for the rural water users. The cost of the study (up to $15,000) will be funded from the Feasibility Reserve, though the memo notes this amount may not cover all of the costs of the study. Another option, mentioned only in passing in the memo, would be to expand the municipal boundaries to include the rural areas currently being serviced by the city water system. “Having this information is an absolute necessity when we eventually meet with the public to discuss their options,” MacLean’s memo stated.

Mrs. Green lived in two story house together with an elderly widow. After not hearing from her for a few days, she got a bit nervous. “John”, she called to her son, “do me a favor and go find out how old Mrs. Robinson is.” So six year old John went down the stairs and knocked on Mrs. Robinson’s door. “So how is she?” asked Mrs. Green when John came back up. “How is she?” repeated John “I’ve never seen her so mad in my life, she said it’s none of your business how old she is.”

Stations will close Unattended waste transfer stations in Westbridge, Bridesville and Jewel Lake will be closed. The Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) is moving ahead with plans to implement the Unattended Sites Policy on May 1. That policy would see those unattended stations closed. According to a memo prepared for the board by CAO John MacLean, the final decision to implement the policy was deferred until the March meeting after concerns were raised at the Bridesville Town Hall Meeting in mid-February. “At that meeting a large number of residents from both Bridesville and Westbridge expressed great concern with the possible removal of the unattended sites. The Environmental Services Committee delayed making a final decision in order for more information to go out to the communities and for meetings to take place.” According to the memo, since that time the regional district has sent information to affected residents providing an explanation of the situation and outlining options available to manage waste. Meetings were also held with community representatives in Westbridge and Bridesville. Issues coming out of those meetings that will be referred to the Environmental Services Com-

mittee are: • The placement of signs providing the “Report a Poacher/Polluter” telephone number to try to avoid the very possible increase in illegal dumping. • The sponsorship, for a transitional period, of a common pick-up location where a private hauler would be available for people to drop off waste. • That we expand the current policy of waiving fees for community groups to allow for the waiver of fees in the case of cleaning up illegal sites. • More information to be sent to residents which clearly and concisely explains the issue and the reasons behind the policy. • That the regional district offer spring and fall clean-up days where tipping fees would be waived. “In our view many of these issues make good sense, and will be well received by the community as a whole,” states the memo. “However, they must be carefully looked at to ensure that we do not create another problem (long line-up at facilities). “Some of the issues raised will represent additional costs in offering an effective and efficient solid waste management program. The increases in costs should be fully explored by the Environmental Services Committee.”

Disposal company not new to industry

With changes afoot in the regional district’s waste management plan, West Boundary Disposal is one of two companies coming online to solve the area’s waste management problems. Owner Norm Torgerson offers residential, commercial, junk removal and special event services designed specifically to meet the needs of each individual customer. Torgerson isn’t new to the industry. He started AJM Disposal in Surrey, which is still in operation and now run by his three sons. After he turned the business over to

his boys in the late ’ 90s, he moved to Midway where his sister Lois Rolls lives. Two recent developments prompted Torgerson to get back into waste management – the regional district announced the closure of many of the waste transfer stations in the West Boundary and Joanne Relkov sold R.A.P.I.D. Services, the area’s major waste hauler. “When Joanne decided to retire I thought it would be a good opportunity to keep it local and provide jobs for people in the area,” explained Norm.

Norm Torgerson (left) owner of West Boundary Disposal stands beside his truck with friend and employee Rocky Carlson.

Saddle up for Poker Ride-athon

Time to saddle up for the Rock Creek Poker Ride-A-Thon, this year being sponsored by the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) and Rock Creek and Boundary Fair Association. Proceeds will be donated to Rock Creek and Boundary Fair Association for upgrades. The ride starts at 9:30 a.m. on Sunday, May 19 at the Rock Creek Fairgrounds. “You can ride the well marked, beautiful Kettle River horse trails or enjoy acres

Currently West Boundary Disposal has one employee, Rocky Carlson, who says that while the regional district has a job to do too, there’s room for both companies. West Boundary Disposal covers all of Area E except for the City of Greenwood, which does its own garbage pickup. For now they have one scheduled run each week – on Fridays – but Norm says that will change as they grow. They travel off the main roads to pick up from farms and ranches too. They offer on-call junk removal services, from a single pickup to a full truckload of material. “We’re on top of that,” declares Torgerson. “If anybody wants any appliances removed or things like that we will do that for a charge of labour plus landfill costs.” Because electronics waste must go to Grand Forks, he will collect, store and transport it for the same tag fee as the bags. West Boundary Disposal will, at no charge, also pick up bluebag recycling from their customers while on the garbage run. There are two ways to pay for services from West Boundary Disposal – using tags or by setting up an account on the monthly billing system. Both systems charge the same amount per bag but Norm says he prefers his rural customers use the billing system so he’s sure to include them on his route. All you have to do to get on his scheduled route is to call or email him. Tags cost $3 each and are available at McMynn’s Hardware, Husky in Rock

of shady campsites for horses, campers and RVs,” said organizer Ann Rexin, adding that overnight camping is available, just pay at the fairgrounds. They have lots of prizes, lunch will be available and water will be provided for the horses. The entry fees are $25 for adults, $10 for youth, or $50 for a family rate (two adults and more than one child). Registration starts between 8:30 and 9 a.m.

Did you know... When medical services are not available locally, you may claim vehicle expenses used to attend a medical appointment in a community located more than 40 kilometres from your home. If you travel more than 80 kilometres from your home for a medical appointment you are also entitled to claim meal and accommodation costs. You can claim the actual gas and meal receipts, or you can use what is called the “simplified method”. This

allows for a per kilometer rate for the distance driven, which for 2012 was 49.5 cents per kilometer. You are also able to claim a per meal rate, which for 2012 was $17 per meal, up to three meals a day. If you required a driver, as it was unsafe for you to drive, you can also claim meal expenses for them. All other expenditures, such as accommodation and parking, require actual receipts. K.

Creek and at Norbert Salvage. Waste disposal for special events such as the fall fair, blues festival or Boogie Bash is another service that West Boundary is set up to handle, and he invites people to call for a quote. “We want to carry on with what Joanne did for the community with R.A.P.I.D. Services,” says Norm. “Being local, we can do that. When local groups like the hockey association want to run a bottle drive we will offer our truck to help with the collections.” West Boundary started with only a pickup, but they now have a full-size truck. “I still have connections to the business through my kids, so anything I need up here will be here – commercial containers, bear bins, whatever is needed will be available. Even though we are local, we can do this. We’re not just a commercial hauler.” Torgerson says his company supports the regional district’s zero-waste and recycling programs and will work closely with them to achieve those goals. “Anything you can divert from the landfill is good,” notes Torgerson. You can contact West Boundary Disposal at 250-449-1733 or via email at westboundarydisposal@gmail.com “Whatever an individual customer needs we will take care of them. We are local and we care about our community. We will cater to the elderly. We will go that extra mile, if they can’t get their garbage to the curb then we will take care of it. Whatever we have to do.”

Lunch will be served starting at noon., followed by the awards at 1:30 and a campfire and sing-along at 2 p.m. Riders must sign a waiver before participating. No dogs, nor smoking, will be allowed. Horse Council of BC membership is recommended. Youth must wear a helmet and be accompanied by an adult. Contact annrexin@hotmail.com, or 250446-2409 for more information.

Ain’t progress grand The BC Utilities Commission held hearings in Kelowna last month regarding FortisBC’s application to install 115,000 residential Smart Meters. There were experts on both sides – with opinions so far apart that the average person doesn’t know what to think. The Union of British Columbia Municipalities passed a resolution at their 2011 convention calling for a “moratorium on the mandatory installation of wireless Smart Meters until the major issues and problems identified regarding wireless smart meters are independently assessed and acceptable alternatives can be made available at no added cost to the consumer”. The Regional District of Kootenay Boundary adopted the same resolution in February 2012. The RDKB board of directors went further though, stating their support for the concept of FortisBC having to provide an appropriate and verifiable wired option for consideration by the Commission. Final submissions to the BCUC from Fortis were due on March 28, and by interveners by April 18, with Fortis having a deadline for their replies by April 25. Apparently BCUC has no deadline to deliver their decision. To read transcripts of the entire hearing go to bcuc. com and follow the links to current applications, then FortisBC. Meanwhile folks in Santa Clara, California have come up with something they hope will convince the public that Smart Meters are okay. They’ve integrated a separate wireless signal into the Smart Meters that provides outdoor WIFI throughout the community so everyone can enjoy using their handheld device while being bathed in both radio and ultraviolet waves. The UVs come to us as an unintended consequence from the time when refrigerators were the new technology of the day. Ain’t progress grand? Some say you can’t stop it – but progress without prudence sometimes gets you a oneway ticket to an unknown destination.

A Positive merits so profound G M Kitimat Refinery Project

I first heard of this concept from David Black a number of years ago. At the time I was skeptical of its chances. My initially negative attitude was based mainly on my experience of 10 years service on the board of directors of Imperial Oil. Since I was accustomed to the discussion of petroleum economics centered in Calgary, I saw no need for a refinery in Kitimat. That attitude was based on the fact that there had not been a new refinery built in North America in many years. And any needed increase in petroleum production was achieved by expansion of existing refineries throughout North America. But after my service with Imperial Oil, I went on to serve 4 years at Canfor which led to my nine visits to China in search of lumber markets. My exposure to the phenomenal expansion of China’s economy opened my eyes to the true merit of the Kitimat refinery concept. It made me realize that it would not be just another refinery relying on the North America market but rather a refinery that would supply the vast appetite of China for petroleum products. The challenge will be to draw the attention of Asian investors who would see the value to this investment. It appears that David Black, after many years of effort, is nearing an agreement that could provide the vast capital infusion needed to make this refinery initiative a reality. The appetite for oil products for all Asia will continue to grow and the Kitimat refinery is ideally situated to take advantage. Asian countries, especially China, are very interested in securing sustainable supply of resources that will flow freely without undue trade barriers like surprises with taxes, regulations or tariffs. Canada has a good reputation as a free trade country that can be relied on as a dependable source of supply. Now is a very opportune time to attract the vast investment needed to make the Kitimat refinery go ahead. David Black, with his years of diligence, deserves our appreciation for displaying the foresight and courage to invest his time, money and reputation to help bring along this huge initiative. The positive merits of the Kitimat refinery are so profound that this project is really beyond any political persuasion. Any and all supporters of NDP, Liberal, Conservative or even Green should see the tremendous benefits that would come to B.C. with this project.

This initiative will involve the investment of many billions of dollars. That’s for sure. It’s hard for any of us to visualize a million let alone a billion of any thing. So let’s look at the “ on the ground” facts of such an undertaking for all of us in B.C. Let’s start with the big picture. When it comes to the benefits of a petroleum cycle from well exploration to the gas station, the jurisdiction that hosts the refining process enjoys a huge portion of the value addition to the raw material. For the KFC Project that would mean several thousand mostly trade union jobs for the multi-year term of the construction phase. It would also mean the creation of over 3000 permanent jobs for the operation and supply support of the refinery when running. This refinery would be processing 175 million barrels per year which means the tax revenue that could go toward healthcare, education, vital services for the disabled and elderly would be immense. But job creation and tax revenue is not the only desirable feature of the KRC. It also would provide much lower risk to the marine environment. The shipments out of the refinery would be finished product like aviation fuel, gasoline and diesel. These products if ever spilt would be much less impactful on the marine environment. They would also be transported in smaller ships. I know there are those on both sides of the political aisle that address this as a political issue. And I would disagree with both. This is a project that can be attractive to all political stripes. Trade unions would see a significant increase in jobs and memberships. Hospitals and schools across the province would see an improvement in government funding. Business activity especially in the challenged northwest B.C. would be very positively impacted. And those with a concern for the threat of marine spills would see a significantly reduced exposure for the environment. Based on the huge positive impact this initiative could have on B.C., I think the question should not be if we want it.... but rather, how can we help make sure that the petroleum world sees this as an attractive way to invest billions of shareholder capital.

OPINION by Jim Shepard

A familiar face to many local ranchers and farmers, Carl Withler came to Rock Creek last week to share his experience on how to ensure meetings stay on track.

Session on meetings

Twenty-eight members of the Rock Creek and Boundary Fair Association turned out last Thursday night for an information session on procedures to run an effective meeting. Ministry of Agriculture Agrologist Carl Withler, who took time away from his vacation to come to Rock Creek for the evening, facilitated the session. Withler shared his 29 years ex-

perience participating in meetings throughout his career as a civil servant. Over the course of the evening he stressed the intention of a meeting should be to allow everyone to speak and to carry on the business of the organization. The meeting covered everything from how to prepare an agenda, to roles of the executive, to Robert’s Rules.
