MIO (UPI) - Several Oscoda County
landowners testified in circuit court
yesterday in their effort to prevent the
state from burying thousands of PBB-
contaminated cattle carcasses in a
massive, clay-lined pit.
A number of state officials were ex-
Sadat: I'll
give peace
two months
(Cont inuefromPage i)
Vague as it was, Sadat's two-month
limit was the first time he had set a
deadline for the initiative he began six
months ago with his dramatic visit to
Jerusalem.
"THE MOMENTUM of the peace
process now is slacking," he told repor-
ters. "But it has not stopped. For now
there is a stalemate of sorts. It is not
frozen but going in slow motion."
Proposals and counter-proposals
between Egypt and Israel since last
November have failed to break the
stalemate, which centers on the future
of the Israeli-occupied West Bank of the
Jordan River.
At present, Egypt and Israel are ex-
changing views via the United States.

pected to appear before Circuit Court
Judge Allan Miller when the two-day
evidentiary hearing resumes today.
THE HEARING was ordered by the
Michigan Supreme Court, which
refused to rule on the legality of the pit
until it could be determined whether
area residents would be adversely af-
fected by state plans.
The landowners claimed that burying
the tainted farm animals in the pit
would threatena nearby watershed and
groundwater supplies.
The Oscoda County PBB Action
Committee filed suit, accusing state of-
ficials with failing to obtain the
necessary permits to construct the 2.2
acre, clay-lined pit for thousands of
farm animals contaminated when the
toxic fire retardant polybrominated
biphenyls (PBB) accidentally was
mixed into a batch of livestock feed in
1973.a
HOWARD TANNER, director of the
Department of Natural Resources, and
Fred Kellow, director of the DNR's
Resource Recovery Division, were
among the state officials under sub-
poena in the case.
Assistant Attorney General Don
Kefkey told Miller that the committee
first must prove that the pit represents
a danger before any other issues can be
examined at the hearing.
MIller ruled, however, that though
"safety is one issue, it is not the only
issue."
