Error corrected

A TYPOGRAPHICAL error in an
April 29 letter to the editor from
West Vancouver resident Terry
Jacks mistakenly stated that Jacks
had registered a complaint with the
Ministry of Environment April 3
over pollution problems emanating
from the Port Mellon pulp mill.

in his original letter Jacks stated
that he had registered the com-
plaint April 7 in response to a
number of complaints about pollu-
tion problems on April 3.
