Cool website of the month -

Department of EnvironmentAs you read this, hunting season has begun! We have the new Hunting Regulation Summarybooklets in the office now, and encourage everyone to pick up a couple of copies. We areanticipating another busy fall around Faro this year, and would like to remind everyone of thevoluntary reporting of moose harvested behind Faro (GMSZ 4-42 to 4-46). You can report yourkill at any Environment office or you can call the information in as well, either to 994-2862 or1-800-661-0525. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated in this program. We also wish toremind hunters that all big game kills must be reported (aside from the voluntary reporting).Consult the Hunting Summary for specifics.Throughout the fall, Conservation Officers and RCMP Officers will be conducting fieldinspections and roadside check stops to monitor hunting activities. This work is intended todetermine compliance with the regulations, as well as to show a presence in the field, whichitself “keeps people honest”. We appreciate your cooperation and courtesy during theseinspections. We would like to also take this opportunity to remind people using the outdoorsthat if you observe or suspect a violation, to please contact us as soon as possible. People whoreport violations can remain anonymous and are eligible for a cash reward through our Turn inPoachers/Polluters (TIP) program.We would also like to remind people that there is still the occasional bear wandering in oraround town. In July, several bears were dealt with and I am pleased to report that I don’tbelieve any of them got into any type of garbage or human food. However, we all need toremain cautious in keeping our yards clean, especially when caring for any meat broughthome from a successful hunt. If you do observe a bear in or around the town, please contactus as soon as possible.We hope that the last month of everyone’s summer goes well, and would like to wish all a safeand successful time in the outdoors through the fall.TJ & LeitheDo you remember milestones in Faro’s history?Have old pictures of Faro you would like to share?thefrozenmukluk@gmail.com

miscellaneousWD-40 WHO KNEW? "WATER DISPLACEMENT #40".The product began from a search for a rust preventative solvent and degreaser to protect missile parts. WD-40 was created in 1953, by threetechnicians at the San Diego Rocket Chemical Company. Its name comes from the project that was to find a 'Water Displacement'Compound. They were finally successful for a formulation, with their fortieth attempt, thus WD-40. The 'Convair Company' bought it in bulkto protect their atlas missile parts. Ken East (one of the original founders) says there is nothing in WD-40 that would hurt you. When youread the 'shower door' part, try it. It's the first thing that has ever cleaned that spotty shower door. If yours is plastic, it works just as well ason glass. It's a miracle! Then try it on your stove-top.
