dorsed-by the Greater Vancouver

Regional District, asked the pro-’

vincial government to call a halt to
the operation until safety and en-
vironmental studics could be done.
The government, however, said

“Nothing clse would be accept-

Buckley. ‘This time, if they don't

The Newman Creek logging,

which was due for completion to-

day, was called .a very ‘‘hash-
hush" operation by village Mayor
Gardon Prescott.

said Tuesdity” the government
‘have sold timber
rights to the property. :

Although Buckley said) ‘tou
biggest concern:all along has been
the safety of the villagers who
commute (on the highway).”” she
also called it ‘‘ridiculous’' that one
provincial ministry would grant the
timber rights for $550,000, thereby

allowing logging that could poten-
tially jeopardize millions of dollars
Of highway work recently under
taken by another ministry?

Further concern “was generated
in council by the road access that
runs through: Crown land. “The.
road is almost directly. aver’ the

Prescou said

While Buckley later said that the
government. has withheld moncy
from the owners to ensure that the
road will be taken care of properly
once the logging is finished, she
too questioned the safety of having
the road in such a steep area,

Addressing council, Lions Bay
resident Christina Halldorson call-
ed the Newman Creck logging ‘the
most disgusting thing I've ever
seen ... in a most dangerous spot.
It is not logical. °
