They will find out whether the generosity of Canadian taxpayers, through federal largesse in the form of a grant, will pay one-half the cost of repairing aeration equipment designed to improve lake water quality. That a grant should be required to help pay for such a project may seem fitting to those who believe in the importance of government grants to the 9 3V-\C\V\Q ^po"t health of the economy and the survival of the nation's culture. But for those who depend on St. Mary Lake for a such a vital commodity as wa­ ter, it must seem that we live with an awfully haphazard system for pro­ tecting it. Not only must water users count on the success of a grant application, they must hope that local government, a water district and an indepen­ dent society will come up with matching funds. All this would be in­ significant if it weren't for the fact that water quality experts,in the Ministry of Environment believe in the importance of aeration for replen­ ishing the lake's oxygen supply. Lakewater monitoring following the equipment's installation 10 years ago provided the evidence that the sys­ tem — designed specifically to address the problem in St. Mary Lake — was working. One of two recommendations proposed in a report on the lake in 1983, aeration deals with the internal loading of phosphorus from sediments at the lake bottom. The other recommendation was intended to deal with external loading, phosphorus entering the lake via septic systems and other sources within the watershed. With the introduction of aeration, the lake's stakeholders were half­ way to meeting the recommendations of that 1983 report. With the breakdown of the aeration system they're back at square one, since there have been no steps taken to stem the phosphorus contribution by septic systems. The serious nature of the problem with St. Mary Lake is all too obvi­ ous to those who drink its water. The odour, taste and lack of clarity of the water raise questions among users over its safety, though they are as­ sured by the water districts that there is nothing wrong with the water from a health standpoint. But a fisheries biologist has warned that the severity of the lake's oxy­ An inappropriate response gen depletion is such that large numbers of fish could die this summer.

The road has yet to be painted and seeding of the bank will be done next week, he said. The entire project, including property acquisition, cost $330,000 over the past three years. The reconstruction raised the grade of Upper Ganges Road to create a level intersection. The highways ministry has also completed the paving on a 200-metre section of Walker Hook Road, which was rebuilt last fall. Stevens said there are no further projects planned as funding is tight. Eventually, Highways might want to pave Stewart Road but that work could not be done until the road is rebuilt — a major project. Stevens said the road between Beaver Point and Cusheon Lake was re- graveled last year and more gravel might be added to the section leading VERYMY down to HoreF Road.
