Committee Adds Dates for Energy Future Hearings

An all-party legislative committee will hold additional hearings on Saskatchewan's energy future, but the meetings will likely prove testy, with government and Opposition members already sniping at each other.

Saskatchewan Party government MLAs on the Crown and Central Agencies Committee on Tuesday proposed nine more hearing days in January.

Premier Brad Wall - who directed that more hearing dates be added - has said the government will decide by the end of the year whether to proceed with work around a potential nuclear reactor proposed by Bruce Power. Wotherspoon and McMillan said the committee could look at broader issues around nuclear power even if the Bruce Power proposal is rejected.

Hearings will begin next Tuesday and Wednesday at the Legislative Building in Regina before moving to Saskatoon, returning to Regina and then sitting in La Ronge.

MLAs agreed Tuesday that an interim report will be presented to the legislature during the fall sitting that begins Oct. 21.

Hearing dates added Tuesday will see the committee in Lloydminster on Jan. 18, Prince Albert on Jan. 19, Saskatoon on Jan. 20 and 21, Yorkton on Jan. 22, Estevan on Jan. 25 and Regina on Jan. 27, 28 and 29.

Ministry of Environment Regulatory Review: Round 2 Consultation Report

In May and June 2009, the Ministry of Environment held a second round of consultations on the results-based environmental regulation initiative, engaging representatives from a wide range of industry, professional, community and non-governmental groups. The goals of the second round of consultations were to provide an overview of the general direction the ministry is proposing for the implementation of results-based regulation and to generate discussion of the policy directions of proposed amendments to The Environmental Management and Protection Act, 2002, The Environmental Assessment Act and The Forest Resources Management Act.

You can find a copy of the feedback report on the Ministry of Environment website at http://www.environment.gov.sk.ca/Regulations.

Your feedback is invited on what you think are the significant issues, challenges and solutions as the government moves forward to develop a results-based environmental regulatory framework. Send your feedback to RBRFeedback@gov.sk.ca.

Greenpeace Protesters Arrested After Invading Oilsands Site

EDMONTON — Twenty-one Greenpeace activists were arrested Wednesday after protesters invaded the Suncor oilsands site in northern Alberta, forcing the company to stop four huge conveyor belts.

The activists reached the site by floating down the Athabasca River, north of Fort McMurray, Alta., early Wednesday morning. One group remained in the boats to unfurl a huge floating banner, while another went ashore and chained themselves to the conveyors.

The 10 members of the team that remained on the river were arrested when they landed their boats around 4 p.m. local time.

Greenpeace spokeswoman Jessica Wilson said the group only stopped to fix one of the vessels. When RCMP and Suncor security approached and told them they were trespassing, Wilson said they got in the boats and tried to leave.

Scientists Find Successful Way To Reduce Bat Deaths At Wind Turbines

CALGARY — Scientists at the University of Calgary have found a way to reduce bat deaths from wind turbines by up to 60 percent without significantly reducing the energy generated from the wind farm. The research, recently published in the Journal of Wildlife Management, demonstrates that slowing turbine blades to near motionless in low-wind periods significantly reduces bat mortality.

"Biologically, this makes sense as bats are more likely to fly when wind speeds are relatively low. When it's really windy, which is when the turbines are reaping the most energy, bats don't like to fly. There is a potential for biology and economics to mesh nicely," says U. of C. biology professor Robert Barclay.

Last year, a groundbreaking Barclay-Baerwald study shed new light about the reasons for bat deaths under wind turbines in the Pincher Creek area. Researchers found that the majority of migratory bats in this southern Alberta location were killed because a sudden drop in air pressure near the blades caused injuries to the bats' lungs known as barotrauma. Although the respiratory systems in birds can withstand such drops, the physiology of bats' lungs does not allow for the sudden change of pressure.

The next step was to find a way to mitigate the deaths. TransAlta, Canada's largest publicly traded provider of renewable energy, initiated a follow-up study at the same site to determine what could be done.

Community Wastewater Details Available Online

REGINA - SaskH2O.ca, the province's go-to website for municipal drinking water safety information, now offers details on local wastewater treatment throughout the province.

In addition to finding out if a community has been issued any warnings about the quality of drinking water, one can also find information on wastewater treatment, such as when the last inspection was conducted, what was the outcome and how to contact the facility operator.

"This website is a unique, one-stop shop for Saskatchewan people to learn about their water," Environment Minister Nancy Heppner said. "Increasing awareness and appreciation of local water issues and the investment that goes into making this resource safe and available is a vital part of protecting and preserving our water supplies."

The information will be of interest to a wide variety of groups, from local residents to businesses, engineers and municipalities. Adding it to SaskH2O.ca is part of the government's commitment to providing transparent reporting on water quality and treatment in Saskatchewan.

http://www.SaskH2O.ca brings together information and services available from the Government of Saskatchewan that relate to water, regardless of the ministry or agency that produces the information or offers the service.

EcoAction encourages project submissions that will protect, rehabilitate or enhance the natural environment, and build the capacity of communities to sustain these activities into the future. Projects require matching funds or in-kind support from other sponsors.

Non-profit groups are eligible to apply to the program. This includes, but is not limited to: community groups, environmental groups, aboriginal groups and First Nations councils, service clubs, associations, and youth and seniors' organizations. Private sector organizations, educational institutions, and municipal, provincial/territorial and federal governments are not eligible applicants, but are encouraged to partner with non-profit organizations.

Deadline to apply is November 1st, 2009. Details at: http://www.ec.gc.ca/ecoaction/what_is_e.html.

ecoENERGY for Personal Vehicles Funding Opportunity

Have a great idea to improve fuel efficiency? Looking for a contribution to your project? Natural Resources Canada's (NRCan's) ecoENERGY for Personal Vehicles program is launching Round 3 of its funding process. Details about proposal submissions and evaluation criteria are available on the Web at http://www.vehicles.nrcan.gc.ca.

NRCan is soliciting proposals for projects to help Canadian drivers change their behaviours when buying, driving and maintaining their vehicles to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, the principal greenhouse gas (GHG) linked to climate change. The funding is for all non-governmental organizations, community groups and associations, educational and academic institutions, and provincial/territorial and municipal agencies, just to name a few.

Funding priority will be given to projects that use a multi-faceted approach to address the ecoENERGY for Personal Vehicles program objectives focused on personal vehicles and integrates buying, driving and maintaining behaviours in order to reduce fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Examples of possible projects include: developing clinics, workshops and campaigns on fuel-efficient driving styles targeted at Canadian light vehicle drivers; building on NRCan's national campaign to encourage Canadians to reduce idling (www.idling.gc.ca); developing outreach activities that will increase the purchase of fuel-efficient vehicles; or encouraging school boards to develop and implement a "no idling" policy with an accompanying awareness and outreach campaign.

The deadline for applications for this funding round is October 15, 2009. Approved projects will start April 1, 2010 and run to March 31, 2011.
