Permits cannot be shared nor can they be loaned. There are no "group entry" privileges. Please adhere rigidly to these requirements as the Region of Durham remains concerned about non-municipal staff utilizing the facility. Any non-compliance could jeopardize our ability to use these important lagoons. Thank-you for your cooperation. Permits must be purchased in advance of entering the lagoons. They cost $5.00 as they did last year. The permits may be purchased at the Durham Region Transfer Site located at 1623 Reach Rd, Port Perry during the following business hours .... Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and Thursday from 8:00 a.m. to 6 p.m. To get to the transfer station, travel north on Hwy 12 past Port Perry [Hwy 7A] to the next traffic lights [Regional Road 8 = Reach Rd.] and travel east to #1623 on the north side of the road. The lagoons are located one road north of the transfer site east off Hwy 12 on Concession Rd. 8 [don't get confused as, despite the fact that these roads are both numbered "8", they are two different roads - one is a regional paved road, the other a dirt concession road.] Geoff Carpentier Ajax, Ontario From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Apr 30 20:24:34 2007 Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Delivered-To: [email protected] Received: from fep7.cogeco.net (smtp2.cogeco.ca [216.221.81.29]) by king.hwcn.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BF6F263472 for <[email protected]>; Mon, 30 Apr 2007 20:24:34 -0400 (EDT) Received: from todd4a18005ed3 (d57-54-224.home.cgocable.net [24.57.54.224]) by fep7.cogeco.net (Postfix) with SMTP id 28944704 for <[email protected]>; Mon, 30 Apr 2007 20:24:35 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> From: "Todd Pepper" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Date: Mon, 30 Apr 2007 20:24:58 -0400 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2900.3028 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2900.3028 X-Mailman-Approved-At: Mon, 30 Apr 2007 22:16:46 -0400 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.1 Subject: [Ontbirds]Hillman Marsh - Shorebirds X-BeenThere: [email protected] X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 01 May 2007 00:24:35 -0000 Shorebirds at Hillman Marsh seen this evening my myself, Mike Tate and Bob Cermak included: Semipalmated Plover (1), Lesser Yellowlegs, Solitary Sandpiper (2) and Dunlin.
