Railroad survey crews in Middlebury this week
MIDDLEBURY Ñ The 2014 Main Street and Merchants Row Bridge Replacement construction project in Middlebury continues to move forward with recent VTrans, FHWA, and Selectboard approvals of the so-called preferred alternative for a new railroad tunnel. The Vermont State Transportation Board visited the project site and conducted a meeting on Thursday, Oct. 17 at the town offices. The purpose of this meeting was to review and vote on a Tunnel Height Variance Request, which they approved. This supports the preferred alternative to construct the current track elevation to a 20Õ , 9Ó vertical clearance through the tunnel while building the tunnel foundations to allow a future increase to 23Õ , 0Ó . Starting Oct. 21, survey and soil boring crews will be at various locations up at the street level and down along the railroad. This will continue into early November as crews gather more field information before winter. The project team has been asked by town officials to minimize impacts to parking and the public in every way they can during this period. Additional project information and bi-weekly updates are posted on the project webpage at: www.middleburybridges.org.
BIG DIG — Visitors to the Middlebury marble quarry, located east of U.S. Route 7, five miles south of downtown, toured the 190-foot-deep pit via Bet-Cha Transit school buses Oct. 19.

Hundreds attended the event as part of Earth Science Week 2013 sponsored by the American Geosciences Institute. See story and related photos inside this issue (page 15). Photo by Lou Varricchio
Too big to ignore: Ralphie May in Rutland
Ralphie May
RUTLAND Ñ Since Ralphie MayÕ s debut on season one of Ò Last Comic Standing,Ó audiences canÕ t get enough of the larger-than-life comedian whose no-nonsense point of view strongly connects with diverse audiences. Ralphie doesnÕ t shy away from touchy topics or ethnic jokes because he sincerely believes that as long as what heÕ s saying is true, people need to hear it. The comedian will make his Vermont debut at the Paramount Theatre as part of his Too Big to Ignore Tour on Friday, Oct. 25 at 8 p.m. RalphieÕ s career in comedy started at age 17 after winning a contest to open for his idol, Sam Kinison. At KinisonÕ s suggestion, he moved from his hometown, Chattanooga,Tenn. to Houston to develop his comedy routine. Ò All the comics IÕ ve ever admired, whether it be Kinison, Lenny Bruce, Buddy Hackett or Richard Pryor, all share a commonality,Ó says May. Ò TheyÕ re a tour de force. When they speak, thereÕ s no room for rebuttal. TheyÕ ve thought it all out. Even the pros and cons of their argument, they raise openly and debate in the midst of their conversation and itÕ s a beautiful thing to watch.Ó Ralphie has a proven track record of selling out multiple shows in 1,500 to 3,000-seat venues and recently released his record-setting one-hour Comedy Central special, Too Big to Ignore on DVD from Image Entertainment. Later this year he will release a vintage recording on vinyl taped in Houston in 1998. Ralphie has worked as a writer and producer on ESPNÕ s Mohr Sports starring CONTINUED ON PAGE 7

Halloween parade will be live on television, web By Lou Varricchio
newmarketpress@denpubs.com RUTLAND Ñ Surprisingly, young (and old) people who read superhero comic books know all about the annual Rutland Halloween Parade. The parade, so it goes, owes its international notoriety to the singular fact that, starting back in the 1970s, the Rutland Halloween Parade was the setting of several famous comic book issues such as Batman (issue 237), Justice League of America (issue 103), Freedom Fighters (issue 6), Amazing Adventures (issue 16), Avengers (issue 83), and the Mighty Thor (issue 207)Ñ to mention just a few of the now highly collectible issues. Debuting in 1960, the Rutland parade was a favorite event for writer and fan Tom Fagan. For starters, he is credited with linking the parade to the Caped Crusader, Batman. As a comic fan, as Boston Globe writer Peggy Shinn tells it, Fagan became friends with other comic book writers and artists. Ò Fagan persuaded some of them to take part in the Rutland Halloween Parade in comic book character costumes,Ó according to Shinn. Ò In 1965, a local newspaper reported that the Joker, Plastic Man, and Dr. Strange were roaming the streets of Rutland, along with Batman (presumably Fagan, but like Bruce Wayne, the Caped Crusader wouldnÕ t divulge his identity). More comic book heroes appeared (at the parade) every year...Ó Now, if you canÕ t attend the parade in person, you can at least get a glimpse of which superhero character might appear as part of the parade because PEGTV, Rutland CountyÕ s public access

Vt. secretary heads up nat’l agriculture group MONTPELIER Ñ VermontÕ s Secretary of Agriculture, Food, and Markets, Chuck Ross, has been named president of the National Association of State Departments of Agriculture or NASDA. NASDA is a nonpartisan, nonprofit association which represents the elected and appointed commissioners, secretaries, and directors of the departments of agriculture in all 50 states and four U.S. territories. Ross was named president at the NASDA annual meeting, held in North Carolina in September.
Ross emphasized the importance of increasing “ag literacy” which he defines as a basic understanding of how food is produced, where it comes from, and why it matters. As secretary of agriculture in Vermont, Ross brings a unique perspective to NASDA. Ross was appointed as the secretary of the Vermont Agency of Agriculture, Food, and Markets by Gov. Peter Shumlin (D) and took office in January 2011. Prior to his current role as secretary, he served as state director for U.S. Sen. Patrick Leahy (D) for 16 years. Before joining LeahyÕ s staff, Ross was a farmer and legislator from Hinesburg. Born in Burlington, Vermont, he graduated from the University of Vermont with a B.A. in Geography in 1978 and from the University of Washington with an M.A. in Geography in 1982. He resides in Hinesburg.

From the Editor
Remembering an American hero
A
stronauts have always been my heroes. As a boy growing up in the 1960s, I looked forward to AmericaÕ s manned space adventuresÑ from Mercury to the Space Shuttle, IÕ ve always tried to follow NASAÕ s can-do exploits. ThatÕ s why news of the passing of astronaut Scott Carpenter hit me hard. Colorado-born Project Mercury astronaut Malcolm Scott Carpenter died Oct. 11 at the age of 88. Pilot of Ò Aurora 7Ó on May 24, 1962, Carpenter was the second American to orbit the EarthÑ three timesÑ following his personal close friend John Glenn. CarpenterÕ s sole trek into space was harrowing, to say the least. Aboard the tiny Ò Aurora 7Ó , Carpenter used up much of his space capsuleÕ s maneuvering fuel when it came time to return to Earth. Forced to manually fire the retro rockets when an auto-firing device failed, the delayed firing caused the astronaut to overshoot his spacecraft’s landing target in the Atlantic Ocean by 250 miles. At the time, helicopters and search planes looked for the lost astronaut at sea. Following the daring flight via television and radio broadcasts, Americans began to prepare for the worst when it was reported that Carpenter went missing. For nearly an hour, it looked as though an American astronaut had died in an attempt to return safely to Earth. But Scott CarpenterÕ s time wasnÕ t up just yet; that would come 51 years later. On May 24, 1962, Carpenter survived his fiery plunge back to Earth from 166 miles up. In the Atlantic, he sat calmly in a tiny raft, next to his bobbing Mercury spacecraft, waiting for rescue choppers from the “USS Intrepid” (now a floating sea-air-space museum in the Hudson River). Scrappy Carpenter had a tough youth until a personal epiphany set him on the right path in life. During the 1930s, the future astronaut lived with his bedridden, T.B.-afflicted mother in Colorado. His absent father lived half a continent away in the New York City area. The lad struggled and even turned to shoplifting. Yet, itÕ s hard to imagine that a youth on the verge of juvenile delinquency could, on his own, turn his life around. The young Carpenter scored high on I.Q. and other mental tests; when it came to physical tests, he was the closest thing to Superman. He went on to serve his country as a member of the U.S. Navy where he learned to become a skilled pilot. Even though he had a string of unsuccessful marriages, Carpenter kept in touch with his ex wives, and he raised several children that he was very proud of—even until his final days. In 2005, Carpenter co-authored an autobiography with daughter Kris Stoever. Titled Ò For Spacious Skies: The Uncommon Journey of a Mercury AstronautÓ , it is a superb book about a superb man who literally pulled himself up by his bootstraps. As a military pilot, Carpenter risked his life flying spy missions during the Korean War. He received several medals and was assigned to naval test pilot school after the war. After his stay with NASAÑ he left the space agency due to an arm injury sustained during a motorcycle accidentÑ Carpenter got right to work with the NavyÕ s experimental Sealab program. The astronaut, who turned aquanaut, was one of the early pioneers to live for extended periods under the sea. CarpenterÕ s contribution to the NavyÕ s Ò Sealab 2Ó submarine station made it one of the most successful marine experiments in history. A few years later, Carpenter started Sea Sciences, Inc., a company for exploring ocean resources and protecting the undersea environment. It’s true that all soaring flights must come to an end. And for Scott Carpenter it was one hell of a ride. He inspired a generation with his quiet wisdom and interest in new horizons, both deep and far. He was a great American. He will be sorely missed.

What a busy couple of months it has been. I arrived at RCHS on May 23 with my newborn babies. We all went into a foster home so that I could get the love and attention I deserve while I raised them. Now I am back at the shelter looking for a home of my own! My foster mom said that I am a little bit of a shy girl at first until I really get to know you.
JASMINE 9 year old. Spayed Female. American Shelter Dog. Oh my, I am such a sweetie. IÕ m a really well mannered dog who enjoys being with people. I love to sit at your feet and hang out. I already know Sit, Shake and Down and I have nice leash manners. I enjoy going for walks, too, so I hope my new family will take me out often for fresh air and sunshine. I also love to give kisses and while you might think IÕ m a big girl, I think IÕ m a lap dog. I also love to get belly rubs and sometimes IÕ ll plop myself down and roll over so you can scratch my belly. ROXY 3.5 year old. Spayed Female. Domestic Short Hair Brown Tiger. Hi again, I am Roxy and I was returned to the shelter on October 2 because I was not the right fit for the family that came in to adopt me. I take a while to warm up to others and have an independent personality. I have lived with other cats and children and can be a real delight but I need to get to know others on my own terms. As they say patience is a virtue and if you have it, maybe I could be the cat for you. SOPHIA 4 year old. Spayed Female. Pit Bull mix. Oh I love treats. And I will Sit, Shake and Lie Down for one. IÕ m very talented if I do say so myself. I enjoy my toys and will catch squeaky toys in mid air if youÕ ll toss one (or two) to me. I really enjoy being with people and may do well with someone who is around a lot in my new home. I do enjoy going for walks but I pull when IÕ m on a leash so some basic manners classes would be good for me so I can become a better canine companion.

Live in H.D.: Post-season Red Sox, NFL, series at Paramount RUTLAND — Officials of the Paramount Theatre announced Sept. 25 that they will, in a collaboration with Catamount Radio, add post-season baseball and Sunday NFL football, free of charge, to the downtown Rutland theaterÕ s programming season. This new initiative will be broadcast live in H.D. with expanded and enhanced exhibition technology. The Ô Sports in H.D.Õ offerings will complement the previously announced Metropolitan Opera: Live in H.D. Series which will run from October 5th through May 18. In addition, also sponsored by Catamount Radio, The Paramount will be offering five special events later in the season: The Academy of Country Music Awards (Nov. 6) The Grammy Awards (Jan. 26), the NFLÕ s Superbowl (Feb. 2) the Daytona 500 (Feb. 23) and the Hollywood Oscar Awards ceremony (March 2). Bruce Bouchard, executive direct of the theater, commented, Ò This new direction offers an altogether exciting new initiative to our Season line-up. This is a sports-mad area and we are so very happy to be able to offer this expanded live exhibition activity. These broadcasts will be offered to the general public as a community service, free of charge. Eric Mallette, programming director said, Ò What a great opportunity for audiences, here in Red Sox Nation, to be able to see the Boston Red Sox, in one of their most exciting seasons,
in 30’X24’ in high definition, with incredible surround sound. It will be a shared audience dynamic like no other. The NFL will bring a number of Patriots games and other top-rated games of interest.Ó American League Division Series games will be broadcast live Oct. 4, 5, 7 and 8. All air timeÕ s TBA. Consult www.paramountlive.org or local listings for times of all games The American League Championship Series and then the World Series will be aired as the Paramount Theatre schedule allows. Air times will be listed on the theaterÕ s website and Catamount Radio stations WSYB, WJJR, WZRT, WJEN and WDVT. The Paramount will start the NFL series by scheduling three Sunday games. Additional Sunday football broadcasts will be driven by demand and interest. While 60% of programming will favor the New England Patriots (AFC), the Paramount will respond to the unfolding season and will pick up additional games of interest from both the AFC and the NFC. Initial broadcasts include: Patriots at New York Jets (Oct. 20), Miami Dolphins at Patriots (Oct. 27) and Pittsburgh Steelers at Patriots (Nov. 3).

Campus sculpture builds renewed interest newmarketpress@denpubs.com MIDDLEBURY Ñ All true and lasting art is supposed provoke a response from the viewer or listener. In the case of artist Vito AcconciÕ s provocative and seminal sculpture Way Station I (Study Chamber), it succeeds on many levels. Last week, the staff of the Middlebury College Museum of Art inaugurated their newest addition to the campusÕ s collection of public artÑ actually, a reinstallation of AcconciÕ s Way Station I. The iconic 1980s work has stimulated many a discussion on campus. Students walk past Way Station I on their way to classes and alumni and other visitors often stop and wonderÑ is it supposed to be some kind of giant Atlantic City Boardwalk casino card shuffler or something else? As is the case with post-modern art in an age of relativity, itÕ s the eye of the beholder that transforms a piece into something personal, something meaningfulÑ or not at all. Born in New York City in 1940, Acconci completed Way Station I back in 1983 when he was a visiting artist on campus. His neat sculptural package consists of large metal Ò shedÓ on a large foundation. As described by college publicity, when Way Station I was first unveiled during the college’s 1983 winter term, Ò it included painted images of flags of various national entities—the United States, the Soviet Union, China, Cuba, and
the Palestine Liberation Organization—as well as mirrored glass and painted two-sided sliding metal panels. On the inside of the structure the panels spelled G-O-D, M-A-N, and D-O-G; on the exterior they depicted playing cards.Ó So, was God or Dog the artistÕ s copilot on this flight of wild imagination? It’s for the viewer to decide. Even before creating the Middlebury piece, Acconci had achieved note as an international artist and architect. ItÕ s perhaps curious to mention that he began his career in the arts first as a poet and later as a performance artist. From the academic side, Acconci has taught at many institutions besides Middlebury. he has taught at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, the California Institute of the Arts, Valencia,Cooper Union, the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Yale University, Pratt Institute; and the Parsons School of Design. And when the artist visits Middlebury for the new inauguration, he will be taking a brief pause from teaching at both Brooklyn College and Pratt Institute, where he is an adjunct associate professor of architecture and urban design. Last weekÕ s inauguration of Way Station I included remarks about the history of the piece and its significance within the arc of the artist’s career, followed by the unlocking of the structure. The sculpture is located adjacent to the pond at the collegeÕ s Mahaney Center for the Arts on Porter Field Road.

Town of Rutland will bloom next spring By Elicia Mailhiot
newmarketpress@denpubs.com RUTLAND — While most Vermonters are thinking ahead to the first snowfall, a Rutland community project is thinking ahead to spring. Earlier this year, Green Mountain Power created Rutland Blooms, a city beautification project supported by over 50 local organizations, including the Chaffee Art Center, the Rutland Free Library, and Wonderfeet ChildrenÕ s Museum. Rutland Blooms volunteers planted nearly 10,000 daffodil bulbs Oct. 18. Ò With thousands of bulbs to plant, we looked for anyone interested in gardening, or just helping beautify Rutland,Ó said Costello. Ò No particular skill was necessaryÐ just a desire to be part of something special.Ó The project was planned for two of the busiest streets in the city that attract travelers driving and walking along Route 4, east and west. “We created two ‘rivers of flowers,’ one along Woodstock Avenue at Rutland High School, the other on West Street,” said Steve Costello of Green Mountain Power. “Next spring, these two gateways to the city will provide a bright, flowering welcome to everyone who passes.Ó The bright yellow flowers arrive in mid-spring. The group also planted wildflowers around the bulbs, which will remain in bloom longer than the daffodils, which die off later in the spring. Volunteers from the Rutland Partnership, Rutland schools, the College of St. Joseph, Castleton State College, the Rutland cemetery commission, Rotella Building Supply, and the Rutland Garden Club donated time and resources to make the planting possible.

Gest Viewpoint Orwell Museum is a community effort
In the wake of this past summerÕ s Orwell 250th Celebration, the panicked last minute preparations of exhibits and displays in the Orwell Museum are now long behind us. As children from a neighboring school wander the rooms in organized fashion, and locals and leaf peepers alike make their customary seasonal walk-through, itÕ s time to get back to business.
Long belated thank yous-a-plenty are in order for the many kind collective words of support for our efforts, as the comments in the guestbook attest, left by some of the 300-plus visitors we played host to that sunny weekend in August. You can still come and visit the museum unlike others throughout the state, we will not be closing for the winter season, and will be keeping to our regular hours. Funny thing about most museums, there is always something
new thatÕ s old to see -and at the Orwell Historical Society Museum, weÕ re always adding to our collectionsÕ displays. But, simply putting things on exhibit is only part of what goes on in a museum. Here, the work continues to collect, archive, preserve and display the artifacts of historical value to the town of Orwell, Vermont. Despite the fact this is a repository of the past, we are always looking to the future - and we must finish the job(s) we started, that is - after a much needed fundraising effort, as the coffers are nearly bare, as preparing the exhibits in time for the recent Orwell 250th Celebration took just about all of our funds. The staff may provide their time and services for free, but the display supplies, paint, molding, period wallpaper, windowed Dutch doors, and printing materials all come at a cost (even if provided at a discount). Work on the next projects that are on the drawing boards can not begin without these required supplies. The new exhibits will be a representation of the interior of a turn-of-the-century post and beam barn, as well as a late 19th century formal parlor (all with furnishings and artifacts donated from around Orwell). Each designed to exceed the excitement and interest we received for the recent One Room Schoolhouse and Country Kitchen and Laundry exhibits, I assure you. But we can not do it without your assistance. You can help the Orwel Museum to several ways: 1. ANTIQUE ITEMS: We are always looking for new/old items to add to our exhibits - if not as an outright donation, then surely just on temporary loan. Period clothing and sports, Scouting and military uniforms are always of interest are most welcomed, as are farm implements, wagons, sleighs and the like! The only requirement is - that the items be particularly Ò OrwellÓ related having been made in or used by someone in town. 2. FINANCIAL CONTRIBUTION: If you can help ease the financial strain, please send your donations in care of: Steve Buxton, President, Orwell Historical Society P. O. Box 85 Orwell, Vt. 05760. 3. ABLE BODIED ASSISTANCE: In addition to the financial support, we are always looking for anyone with interest in lending a helping hand in-house... be it on the working end of a paintbrush, roller or broom. We are in serious need of docentsÑ volunteer teachers and tour guides, as well as folks willing to help research and archive the antiquity (doing computer data input), as well as assisting with inquiries of local genealogy. Up until now, the lionÕ s share of this work has been done by a very limited few and its taking a toll. For those willing to provide sweat equity, kindly contact Sandy Korda, the Museum Curator - at either OrwellMuseum@ gmail.com or by calling: 802-382-0433.

Committee meets to discuss new town offices, rec center
MIDDLEBURY Ñ At the Oct. 15 Middlebury Select BoardÕ s new town committee meeting, board member Victor Nuovo asked if the New Town Offices and Recreation Facilities Steering Committee objected to adjusting the agenda so that the project schedule could be discussed first. He said that the Select Board would like the new Committee to move towards making a recommendation on the project schedule. Chris Huston went over the pros and cons of the December vs. the March bond vote as presented at the Oct. 8 Committee meeting. The main concern is that by delaying the vote until Town Meeting, there is a potential increase of $350,000 in project cost due to late subcontractor bidding and possible winter construction costs. John Dale reviewed two design options presented at the Oct. 8 meeting, the Corner Entry Option and the Entry Court Option. He summarized the pros and cons of each design based on the siting on the lot and the interior programming. Kevin Unrath suggested the handicapped parking spot shown closest to the entrance to the parking lot from Cross Street be moved or eliminated. He said that is a congested area and gets bottlenecked at times. David Donahue said the college has some ideas that they are toying with for the park that will replace the municipal building and gym, and one of them is an historical park with markers depicting the town and college history. This
would make the park a real destination point. Some on the Committee wanted to see more plans before deciding and some wanted to wait until after the Design Advisory Committee had their first look at the project on Oct. 21. A straw vote was held with seven in favor of the Entry Court Option, zero for the Corner Entry Option and four undecided. BLC will move forward with further refinement of the Entry Court Option. Recreation Center Huston showed a revised floor plan with increased storage, more lockers, an additional mid-court entrance and increased square footage in the multi purpose area and quiet studio. Also presented was the list of potential users of all spaces. The designs and list of potential users will be available on the town website. Public Adrienne MacIntyre asked about the bathroom availability on weekends and off-hours in both the Town Offices and the Recreation Center. Huston said they were being designed with this possibility in mind. The Recreation Center in particular is being designed so the vestibule will be open so the bathrooms can be used when the rest of the building is closed. The next Committee meeting will be on Tuesday, Oct. 22 at 10:30 a.m. The Oct. 15 meeting can be viewed on MCTV. Notes courtesy of Beth Dow

Mt. Health Center receives federal designation By Lou Varricchio
newmarketpress@denpubs.com BRISTOL Ñ Good news for the Five-Town Health Alliance came in the form an official notice from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Health Resources and Services Administration, just before the recent government shutdown and the nationwide, somewhat rocky kick-off of Ò ObamaCareÓ . Administrators of the Mountain Health Center, located at 74 Munsill Ave., in Bristol said they received word that the center has been officially designated a Federally Qualified Health Center Look-AlikeÑ known as FQHC-LALÑ by the U.S. Government. Mountain Health Center provides access to primary and preventative health care services, and includes medical, dental, and behavioral health care for residents. Jill Mackle of Five-Town Health AllianceÕ s board of directors, credits U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I) especially, along with others, with helping pave the way for the important designation. Ò Sen. SandersÕ commitment to making quality health care
available to all Vermonters, along with the support of Gov. Peter Shumlin and Reps. Michael Fisher and Dave Sharpe, helped us achieve this important designation,Ó Mackle said. Ò WeÕ re also grateful to Bi-State Primary Care Association for their long support and assistance along every step of the journey.Ó Sanders had high praise for the center, too. Ò I congratulate the Five-Town Health Alliance on the health center in Bristol receiving a formal designation as a Federally Qualified Health Center Look Alike. This is a major step forward toward improving primary health care in Addison County and providing affordable prescription drugs,Ó Sanders said. Ò It also moves us a step closer to the Five-Town Health Alliance becoming the ninth Federally Qualified Health Center in Vermont with all the benefits that go with that designation. I look forward to continuing to work with this wonderful organization.” The Look-Alike designation makes it possible for Mountain Health Center to offer a sliding fee scale to uninsured and underinsured patients meeting federal guidelines based on income. Mountain Health Center has four physicians, a nurse practi-
tioner, a physician assistant, a social worker and dietician, six licensed or registered nurses, an executive director, and administrative staff. Health Center administrators noted some additional good news for the Bristol facility. Ò Within the next several months, Mountain Health Center looks forward to a future partnership with Mountain Health Family Dentistry and in addition to that expects to participate in a federal pharmacy program that will lower the cost of prescriptions for eligible patients through a collaboration with local pharmacies,Ó according to Executive Director Martha Halnon, CPC, CMPE. Ò Mountain Health Center is open to new patients.Ó The Five-Town Health Alliance was formed in 2008 for improving medical, behavioral and dental access for the northeastern Addison County region. For patient information, call Mountain Health Center at 802453-5028.

Omya Quarry: Middlebury’s big dig—up close By Lou Varricchio
newmarketpress@denpubs.com MIDDLEBURY Ñ It was open house day at the Swiss-owned Omya marble quarry in Middlebury Oct. 19. The event, the first of its kind at the big pit in several years, was part of Earth Science Week 2013 sponsored by the American Geosciences Institute. OmyaÕ s open house provided the public with an up close look at one of VermontÕ s largest open-pit quarrying operation. The quarry is a multi-million-dollar source for calcium carbonate (marble) used for a variety of industrial and research applications from construction drywall and house paint to vitamins and electrical insulation throughout North America. Visitors arrived at the quarry via OmyaÕ s private access road off U.S. Route 7 starting at 10 a.m.
After registering in a tent, the public enjoyed viewing giant mining equipmentÑ such as giant Caterpillar trucks and rockmoversÑ as well as displays about OmyaÕ s operation as well as rocks and minerals. The tour, via Bet-Cha Transit school buses, took visitors deep into the pit to the lowest level at 190 feet below the surrounding surface. Several interactive stations were set up by Omya staffers for visitors to viewÑ At station one, children and adults donned hard hats and safety glasses and got to hit rocks with a hammer. Collectors were permitted to keep the rocks they split. At station two, visitors learned about drilling and blasting in the quarry. After blasting, the rock is hauled to the surface to a crusher facility.
At station three, Omya geologist Andy McIntosh talked about the quarryÕ s history. Ò The quarry began around 1860, before the Civil War,Ó he said. Ò Today, stone, water and farmland resources of this site are carefully used to benefit the local environment.” The Middlebury quarry marble originated as limestone sediment produced from marine organisms in an ancient shallow sea. The heat and pressure of Appalachian mountain building changed the limestone into marble over millions of years. Exiting the tour, visitors were permitted to drive through OmyaÕ s large truckwash. Springs deep below the quarry provide the company with millions of gallons of fresh water to hose of ore trucks to and from the pit.
Visitors to Omya’s quarry open house Oct. 19 line up to take a bus tour 190 feet below the surrounding surface land.
Young and old alike learn about rocks and minerals at a show-and-tell Earth Science Week table set up at Omya’s Middlebury quarry open house event Oct. 19.
