The report, known as the NTEC State-Wide Siting Task Force Report, designates most of the Willamette Valley as “suitable” for nuclear and thermal power plants. The report determines the areas in the state that are “suitable, less suitable and un suitable” for nuclear power plants. The designations are based upon four determining factors: — Natural Resources — “Natural resource restrictions consist of national paries and monuments, federal wilderness areas and specially-designated areas. All natural resource restrictions are of an unsuitable nature except wildlife areas, which are less suitable.” — Industrial Water Restric tions — . in plant siting, availability of water may well be APPLY NOW FOR STUDENT FINANCIAL AID TOR 1973-74 PRIORITY DATE MARCH 1, 1973 FOR ALL STUDENTS > SCHOLARSHIPS • CHARTS • LIARS COLLEGE WORK-STHRY PROGRAM 9MOIt9PiP9P«P9C< • LAW ENFORCEMENT LOANS APPLICATIONS AVAILABLE AT OFFICE OF STUDENT FINANCIAL AID 270 EMERALD HALL 2 i STUDENTS MUST RE-APPLY FOR AID EACH YEAR \ Berg's Nordic Ski Shop 11th i Mill and 13th 3 Lawmen Hiking Equipment Sale Trailwise packs were $53.00 now only $39*95 Select group of mens and ladies hiking boots by Vasque and Danner 20 to 40% off Ski Sale Lange Boots 40% off K2 & Head Skis 20% off The Oregon Daily Emerald is puhlwh^ Monday through Friday during the school year, except during exam and vacation periods, and four times weekly during summer session by the Emerald Board of Directors at the University of Oregon.

The rate of these subscriptiu' approximately 12.60 per year.

However, if environmental problems of heat dissipation in a lake are resolved, then several existing lakes could be used with minimum consumption of water.” — Population Proximity — The report points out that there are no general criteria on what population density would be “permissible.” Areas with a population density exceeding 10,000 people per square mile were designated unsuitable. — Geology — “Important geologic considerations in the siting . . . are the potentials for earthquakes, active faulting and volcanism.” NTEC did not originally schedule a local hearing because there was “no interest in Eugene.” The efforts of the Eugene Future Power Com mittee (EFPC) and many other individuals are responsible for NTEF’c change in plans. Jane Novick, a member of the EFPC, said the EFPC testified in all of the NTEC preliminary report hearings and will testify in Eugene. She is concerned because the final report didn’t take into ac count “many of the important questions” the committee previously raised. “In addition,’’ Novick said, “meteorological considerations are entirely lacking and the coastal area has not been included.” She called the absence of meteorlogical considerations “a fatal flaw/’ For this reason the EFPC is urging as many people as possible to testify. “The only way we will get them to change is if people let them know they are concerned,’’ she said. Mike Dot ten and Terry Esvelt of the ASUO Survival Center and Debby Dunlop and Stan Cook of the Environmental Study Center will also testify at the hearing. The hearing is set for 2 and 7 p.m. Wednesday in the City Council Chambers. ( On Campus j YWCA collecting boycott receipts In support of the United Farm Workers (UFW) Safeway Boycott, the University YWCA is collecting receipts from other grocery stores. The YWCA will send these receipts to the Safeway district manager to show that people are shopping elsewhere until Safeway buys UFW union lettuce. Those interested in boycotting Safeway should send their receipts to the YWCA in Gerlinger Hall. Amendment petitions return urged Persons who have been circulating petitions to put an amendment to the ASUO Constitution on the winter term ASUO ballot should return the petitions “as soon as passible” to the ASUO vice president’s office, 308 EMU, according to David Sonnenfeld, member of the ad hoc Committee to abolish the ASUO Senate. Sonnenfeld said the petitions “must be in at the very latest by 5 p.m. today, if they are to be counted.” Ceramics craftsman in fishbowl The Craftsmen’s Corner, a new program sponsored by the EMU, continues this week with featured Edna John who specializes in ceramics. The craftsman will set up a small booth in the EMU Fish bowl to demonstrate, exhibit and sell her craft. The Corner will operate Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. /---v [ Community Planned Parenthood meeting scheduled The Planned Parenthood Association of Lnne County will hold its annual membership meeting at 7:30 Wednesday night in Harris Hall. Guest speaker will be regional director of the organization, Robert Webber. He will speak on the effect of the new abortion ruling and research on several new birth control methods. Garden plots may be made available How many people would be interested in planting a garden this spring if free farm land and technical assistance were provided? That’s what the Lane County Parks and Recreation division would like to know before beginning such a project in undeveloped areas of Alton Baker Park. Park officials point out that approximately 40 plots per acre could be made available for citizens to grow their own vegetables if *»™»»!gh interest exists. “The soil is excellent for growing garden produce,” said Evald Nielsen, landscape architect for the County’s parks division, “and the location near the center of the metropolitan area should make it convenient for many people.” Nielsen said proximity to the University and Senior Citizen Center might make the idea attractive to those people. “We want to make good use of vacant farm land in the Alton Baker Park until it’s further developed.” Preliminary plans for the project include making arrangements with a Lane County Extension agent to be available for technical advice. Nielsen said the county may do some basic soil preparation in the spring and fence off the gardening areas. Other considerations such as the provision of irrigation water and garden tools will be worked out later. Persons who might be interested in the gardening project should call the County Parks Division, 342-1311, Extension 253.
