Letters to the Editor
Mt. Independence site to host two hikes
The  extreme,  out-Âof-Âstate  Con- servation  Law  Foundation  (CLF)  recently  received  much  attention  for  its  “studyâ€?  of  a  proposal  by  Vermont  Gas  to  extend  clean  and  affordable  natural  gas  to  Addison  and  Rutland  counties.  This  is  an  important  project  for  these  counties  and  for  the  eco- nomic  future  of  western  Vermont.  According  to  www.AddisonNatu- ralGas.com,  this  project  offers  homeowners  and  businesses  the  opportunity  to  cut  their  heating  costs  50  percent  and  reduce  green- house  gas  emissions  by  about  25  percent.  It’s  a  real  opportunity  to  have  cleaner  air,  reduce  the  cost  of  housing  and  grow  the  economy.  Readers  probably  aren’t  sur- prised  that  a  radical  group  would  oppose  this  project.  What  they  might  be  surprised  to  read,  how- ever,  is  that  CLF  has,  for  more  than  a  decade,  supported  natural  gas  projects  throughout  the  North- east.  No,  that’s  not  a  typo.  CLF  has  frequently,  and  aggressively,  cited  the  overwhelming  scien- WLÂżF HYLGHQFH WKDW QDWXUDO JDV LV VLJQLÂżFDQWO\ FOHDQHU WKDQ FRDO RLO propane  and  even  wood.   CLF’s  website  states  clearly:  “Natural  gas  for  heating,  cooling  and  electricity  generation  in- stead  of  oil  or  coal  has  important  HQYLURQPHQWDO EHQHÂżWV %XUQ- ing  natural  gas  produces  less  air  pollution  than  other  fossil  fuels,  both  in  terms  of  the  pollutants  that  threaten  public  health  and  the  greenhouse  gases  that  cause  global  warming.  ‌  CLF  consid- ers  natural  gas  to  be  an  important Â
transitional  fuel  as  we  move  toward  a  clean  energy  economy.â€?  CLF  also  says  their  work  to  build  a  large  natural  gas  genera- tion  station  in  New  Hampshire  is  a  “success  story,â€?  noting  that  CLF  Ventures  “introduced  AES  to  a  prospective  site  for  the  facility  ‌  and  advised  AES  on  permitting  strategy  and  ways  to  strengthen  local  support  for  the  project.  ‌  This  community  siting  collabora- tive  met  regularly  for  one  year  and  reached  consensus  on  noise,  pollutants  and  environmental  offsets.â€?   In  2010,  one  CLF  lawyer  wrote  of  that  work:  “Those  plants  and  that  technology  are  now  widely  used.  Our  air  is  cleaner  and  we  are  burning  less  fossil  fuel  because  of  it.  CLF  is  proud  of  its  work  with  industry  leaders  to  bring  about  clean  environmental  solutions.  ‌â€?  The  examples  of  CLF’s  hy- pocrisy  go  on  and  on.  In  a  legal  proceeding  in  Montpelier  this  month,  they  essentially  admitted  their  recent  claims  to  Vermont  me- dia  were,  in  fact,  an  act  of  public  deception.  Despite  repeatedly  claiming  in  media  reports  that  they  conducted  a  “studyâ€?  and  “analysisâ€?  on  the  greenhouse  gas  emissions  of  the  proposed  natural  gas  project,  when  asked  directly:  “Have  you  ever  conducted  a  GHG  life  cycle  analysis  for  natural  gas  or  any  RWKHU IXHOV"´ 7KHLU RIÂżFLDO RQ the-Ârecord,  answer  was:  “No.â€? *LYHQ WKH VFLHQWLÂżF HYLGHQFH that  natural  gas  reduces  green- house  gas  emissions  by  about  25  percent  —  and  the  fact  that  it  is Â

about  50  percent  less  expensive  than  oil  and  propane  —  it’s  no  surprise  that  President  Obama  cited  the  importance  of  natural  gas  in  his  new  Climate  Action  Plan.  More  importantly,  an  inde- pendent  greenhouse  gas  analysis  conducted  as  part  of  the  regula- WRU\ SURFHVV FRQÂżUPHG WKDW WKH Vermont  project  would  reduce  emissions  by  about  25  percent,  as  compared  to  oil.   Vermont  Gas  has  been  deliver- ing  the  economic  and  environ- PHQWDO EHQHÂżWV RI FOHDQHU QDWXUDO gas  to  nearly  50,000  customers  in  Chittenden  and  Franklin  counties  for  about  40  years.  And  it  shows.  All  you  have  to  do  is  compare  real  estate  values,  new  business  growth  and  job  opportunities.  Denying  the  people  of  Addison  and  Rutland  counties  the  econom- ic  and  environmental  advantages  that  natural  gas  provides  would  be  socially  and  environmentally  irresponsible.   This  project  is  an  opportunity  to  transition  to  a  cleaner  and  more  secure  energy  future,  revitalize  our  local  economies  and  reduce  the  gap  between  the  haves  and  the  have-Ânots.  No  amount  of  CLF’s  duplicity  or  deceit  will  change  those  facts.  Jim  Eckhardt Chittenden Editor’s  note:  The  writer,  a  small  business  owner  and  former  state  legislator  from  Rutland- Windsor  1,  is  chairman  of  the  Ver- mont  Board  of  Investigative  and  Security  Services,  a  body  created  by  the  Legislature  and  appointed  by  the  governor.

Get  rid  of  Common  Core  program In  the  July  22  letter  from  a  retired  WHDFKHU DERXW D ODFN RI FRQÂżGHQFH LQ the  Monkton  school  administration,  she  seems  to  be  defending  against  a  minor  skirmish  while  ignoring  the  army  of  Armageddon  lurking  on  the  horizon. The  writer  criticizes  the  adminis- trator,  who  by  the  way  was  indeed  “recruited,â€?  for  being  totalitarian,  yet  the  teachers  in  that  school  for  the  most  part  endorse  the  federally  mandated  Common  Core  program. If  teachers  there  currently  disagree  with  the  administration  it  is  only  suggested  that  they  get  off  the  train.  Under  the  requirements  of  Common  Core  if  they  disagree  with  the  admin- istration  they  will  most  certainly  be  thrown  off  and  run  over  by  the  train. Admittedly  I  have  not  heard  that  anyone  has  availed  themselves  of  one,  but  would  hope  that  in  Monkton  there  is  a  grievance  procedure  for  the  teachers  culminating  with  the  elected  school  board.  However  with Â
Common  Core  there  will  be  no  such  avenue  of  relief  for  any  of  the  staff,  including  support  staff,  teachers  and  administrators. If  the  teachers  fail  to  propound  the  Common  Core  propaganda  estab- lished  by  the  education  guru  from  Chicago  and  the  establishment  in  ' & WKH\ ZLOO GHÂżQLWHO\ EH MXGJHG WR be  incompetent  and  forced  to  seek  a  different  career.

I  wouldn’t  get  too  excited  about  the  possum  in  the  wood  pile  when  there  is  a  puma  on  the  porch. Get  rid  of  Common  Core  and  make  the  most  of  your  local  elected  school  board. R.E.  Merrill Bristol

BARRE  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  Eleven  people  and  several  pets  in  Barre  were  recently  exposed  to  the  saliva  of  a  baby  skunk  that  appeared  abandoned,  and  was  rescued  from  the  side  of  a  road.  The  animal  later  tested  positive  for  rabies. Everyone  who  was  exposed,  including  six  children,  under- went  a  series  of  vaccinations  as  a  preventative  measure,  accord- ing  to  Robert  Johnson,  DVM,  the  Health  Departmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  public  health  veterinarian. The  baby  skunk  was  one  of  two  captured  in  Barre  that  tested  posi- tive  for  rabies  on  June  27.  A  total  of  31  animals  have  tested  positive  for  rabies  so  far  this  year  in  Vermont. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wild  animals  are  not  kittens  or  puppies,  and  we  want  to  remind  Vermonters  not  to  feed  or  touch  wild  animals,â&#x20AC;?  Dr.  Johnson  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  best  prevention  is  to  avoid  exposure. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  tendency  is  to  want  to  rescue  the  animal,  but  our  advice  is  leave  it  alone.â&#x20AC;? The  only  way  to  rescue  a  wild  animal  is  to  make  sure  it  is  handled  properly  (with  gloves  and  placed  into  a  box)  and  brought  to  a  state  wildlife  rehabilitator.

Once  the  animals  are  taken  in  as  pets  and  improperly  handled,  and  people  are  either  bitten  or  exposed  to  saliva,  the  potential  for  rabies  requires  that  the  animal  is  tested  for  the  disease.  Animal  testing  for  rabies  involves  killing  the  animal  and  test- ing  a  sample  of  its  brain  tissue. Without  treatment,  rabies  is  a  fatal  disease  for  humans  and  animals.

mostly  to  the  economic  and  envi- ronmental  status.  We  need  to  take  FDUH RI 9HUPRQW EXW ÂżUVW ZH QHHG to  learn  about  how  to  stop  these  ex- otic  pests. First,  what  is  an  invasive  species?  Invasive  means  invading  or  inter- fering  with  certain  habitat.  The  in- vasive  insects  we  are  talking  about  take  over  a  forest  area.  The  emerald  ash  borer  originates  from  Asia  as  does  the  Asian  long-Âhorned  beetle.  They  survive  and  reproduce  so  well  here  because  our  forest  has  not  had  time  to  adjust  to  them,  meaning  the  species  have  very  few  predators.  The  beetles  affect  varieties  of  trees  ranging  from  maple  to  ash  and  birch.  Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  where  they  affect  our  econo- my.  They  are  killing  maples.  This  has  to  stop,  but  the  question  is  how? Also,  you  should  know  the  warn- ing  signs  of  invasive  insects.  The Â

bugs  leave  holes  or  D-Âshaped  exit  holes.  This  hints  a  certain  someone  may  be  taking  over  a  tree  or  pos- sibly  part  of  a  forest.  This  can  be  bad,  not  just  for  you,  but  also  for  the  woods.  So,  what  does  the  bug  look  like?  The  emerald  ash  borer  is  a  green  beetle  with  metallic  green  wings.  It  is  responsible  for  the  destruction  of  about  50  million  ash  trees  across  the  U.S.  The  other  major  invader  is  the  Asian  long-Âhorned  beetle.  It  is  a  glossy  black  beetle  with  long  black  and  white  striped  antennae.  These  are  only  two  of  the  invasive  insects  of  Vermont.  There  is  so  much  more  to  learn  about  protecting  our  envi- ronment.
