Tom Wright said it was un realistic to expect a lack of potable water to be a barrier to population growth since water could be either brought to the island or sufficient rainwater collected here. "I think we have to be looking at other ways to control population growth than water availability." David Borrowman said he hoped groundwater would be con trolled, wells be licenced and a standards system set up, as proposed by the environment min istry. He also said an underground water map of the islands should be produced, St. Mary Lake returned to its previous level and Duck Creek's also restored. A long wish list came from Pat Byrne's group. Some of his re quests included more hiking trails and parkland, "road shoulders suitable for bikers" and encourag ing property owners to dedicate trails across their land by having the Trust manage liability coverage.
