More on page 8 and 9. few options for building by Darren MacDonald Staff Terrace Bay has offered to pay for half of the cost of pro- viding the Wiseway building with a water line, says Superi- or North Business Develop- ment Manager Mary Long. _ "The offer is that they will pay for half of the cost and we'd pay for the other half," she says. "And it's still to be decided how they would tax us." Long says that since the BDC first asked council to provide the Wiseway building with water, a number of other building opportunities have emerged.

There are a total of 239 street lamps in Schreiber, and all of them have been convert- ed to high pressure sodium lights, from mercury vapour. "High pressure sodium is about the most efficient form of lighting," he says. "Low pres- sure sodium is more efficient cost-wise, but the light they give off isn't as bright."

"The high pressure sodium lamps aren't . necessarily brighter than the mercury vapour lamps, but the mercury ones had lost a lot of their brightness over time," says Este.
