Fatal accident on Route 22A ORWELL Ñ A fatal accident occured on Vermont Route 22A in West Haven near the bottom of Long Hill Feb. 22. Traffic was rerouted at Route 73 in Orwell to the north and at Route 4 in Fair Haven, south of the crash.

A 911 call came in at approximately 8:02 p.m. Feb. 22 reporting a collision between a tractor trailer and a tour bus.

The trailer unit jackknifed and stopped on Route 22A; while the northbound commercial bus with 32 persons on board crested the hill, lost control, and ultimately struck the trailer unit after contacting the guard rails.

The road was closed for several hours, and traffic was rerouted, while patients were transported to local hospitals and emergency personnel cleared the vehicles from the scene.

The bus driver was pinned within the bus and critically injured. Two passengers sustained moderate injuries and the remaining passengers all sustained minor injuries.

Eight patients were transported to Porter Hospital in Middlebury and 24 patients, including the operator of the tractor trailer, were transported to Rutland Regional Medical Center. The operator of the bus, identified as Darnell Hannah age 59 from Millstone N.J., died as a result of his injuries. The operator of the rig was identified as Haroon Kalid, 34 from Scotrun, Pa. The Vermont State Police treated this as a mass casualty incident, receiving assistance from West Haven Fire Department, Fair Haven Fire and Rescue, Poultney Fire and Rescue, Rutland Regional Ambulance, Orwell Fire and First Response, Benson First Response, Granville Rescue, Wallingford Rescue, Fair Haven Police Department, Castleton Police Department, Department of CONTINUED ON PAGE 6

Mullin to challenge incumbents

THE CHALLENGER

By Alice Dubenetsky newmarketpress@ denpubs.com BRISTOL Ñ Valerie Mullin hopes to bring common sense Addison County values to Montpelier next year Ñ but she has an uphill climb against popular incumbents in her rural district.

MIDDLEBURY — RoseLee Goldberg, author, scholar, curator, and founder of the Performance biennial in New York, will speak at Middlebury College on Thursday, Feb. 27, at 4:30 pm in the Concert Hall of the Mahaney Center for the Arts.

Goldberg’s lecture will provide rich context and in depth analysis for Performance Now, an exhibition which she organized and is on view through Sunday, April 20 at the Middlebury College Museum of Art. Goldberg, who has been called “the P.T. Barnum of performance art,Ó wrote the first scholarly history of the subject, Performance Art from Futurism to the Present, in 1979. The book, now in its third edition, has been widely translated and is used by many as a core text in the study of modern and contemporary performance art.

Goldberg was born in South Africa,

where she studied dance and political science. She went on to write her dissertation about Oskar Schlemmer, the German artist who worked in a variety of mediums and influenced the Bauhaus school’s idea of interdisciplinary practice. More recently, prior to founding Performa in New York, she served as curator at The Kitchen, the premier performance space devoted to supporting the work of artists who combine traditional media with live action.

Goldberg’s talk is sponsored by the Middlebury College Museum of Art, the Department of History of Art and Architecture, the Department of Theatre and Dance, and the Director of the Arts.

The Mahaney Center for the Arts is located on Route 30 on the southern edge of campus. Both the Center and the Museum are physically accessible. The lecture is free and open to the public.

A history of oil and gas in Vermont

By Lou Varricchio

lou@addison-eagle.com

The 1957 Yandow well in Alburg, Vt., was drilled by the Henderson Company using a cable tool rig. Today, wooden blocks at the base of the derrick have rotted and the derrick “settled” onto the well head, thus tipping it about 30 degrees.

In 2012, Vermont H. 464 may have ended any opportunity to develop its native fossil fuel supplies using the fracking method, however, according to Project Vote Smart, the bill requires that the Secretary of Natural Resources submit a report to the legislature, on or before Jan. 15, 2015, about how hydraulic fracturing can be regulatedÑ thus leaving a door open for future change.

Across the lake in New York, the vast Marcellus and Utica shale formations hold a huge supply of natural gas (and oil) that would, conservatively, fuel U.S. consumption for decades CONTINUED ON PAGE 10

MIDDLEBURY Ñ VermontÕ s ultra-deep oil and gas deposits reside in the Lake Champlain basinÕ s Potsdam Sandstone Formation and related carbonate rocks including the subsurface rocks of the Utica Shale. These various rock groups, of which many contain fossil marine lifeforms, formed over 480 million years ago, during the late Cambrian and early Ordovician periods.

According to geologist Don Kelley of the U.S Geological Survey, Ò The area west of a line drawn somewhat wet of the central spine of the Green Mountains from Richford (north) to Stamford (south) can be considered as Vermont’s oil and Gas province.

The results of future exploration may alter the dimensions of this province.Ó As far as Vermont oil and gas deposits are concerned, State Geologist Laurence Becker has publicly stated that he doesnÕ t think any oil survived the extreme pressures and heat of mountainbuilding activity here millions of years ago. On the contrary, he has noted that natural gas likely exists here in large quantities.

Interestingly, state legislators have never shown much interest in developing such local resources. Today, with a fracking ban in effect, it is hard to imagine that natual gas resources will ever being developed locally.

The first attempt to tap gas in Vermont occurred in 1957 on the farm of Isadore Yandow in Alburg.

After the YandowÕ s wildcat well was drilled, several big efforts followed—the 1959 Gregoire well in Mallet’s Bay, the 1964 American Petrofina well drilled on the farm of Harry Hutchins in South Alburg, and the 1968 Baker Farm well drilled on Grand Isle, to name just a few. All of the wells just mentioned may have indicated natural gas was present in the deep rocks, but nothing was ever produced.

In 1983, members of the VLA or Vermont Landowners Association arranged with a Pittsburgh, Pa. law firm to lease a total of 10,000 acres for oil and gas exploration. The association was set up the previous year to serve landowners interested in exploring oil and gas under their land.

What the association was quick to learn was that various town zoning laws were obstacles in moving ahead with drilling projects.

Paul Stone, president of the VLA, was quoted in Vermont Business Magazine at the time saying that, Ò We had been told that if zoning laws are silent regarding oil and gas drilling then such operations are permissible. The (Vermont) attorney general now says just the opposite. If zoning is silent on the matter than drilling is prohibited...Ó But within a year of the VLAÕ s stalemate, another effort to lo-

cate oil and gas was underway in Fairfield.

On July 19, 1984, the Columbia Gas Transmission Corp., with contractor Delta Drilling of Texas, started a 10,500-feet-deep well along Chester A. Arthur Road, a rural byway located near Black Creek and named after the U.S. President and Vermont native son.

A year later, State Geologist Charles Ratte reported that the well was a dud. Ò The David and Jean Burnor Well No. 1... was abandoned and plugged on Oct. 22, 1984 at a depth of 6,970 feet,” Ratte reported to the Association of American State Geologists. “Information regarding geologic formation(s) encountered, etc., are by law to remain confidential for two years unless released earlier by Columbia...Ó Despite the costly efforts to tap Vermont oil and gas from the 1950s through the mid 1980s, nothing was ever produced using traditional drilling methods.

A 1970 issue of “The Report of the State Geologist” to the vermont State Legislature sums up the technical challenge of reaching Vermont’s oil and gas: “None of the wells cited appears to have penetrated below the great thickness of the Ordovician rocks... The thick underlying sequence of Cambrian formations with horizons of sandstones and similar types has not yet been probed.... Until the Cambrian rocks have been explored, it cannot be said that the Champlain basin has been adequately tested (for oil and gas) in Vermont.Ó Ever since the 1980s, there was little effort made to get at Vermont oil and gas. And the stateÕ s recent fracking ban has put an end to any exploitation. While a future legislature could overturn the ban it seems unlikely. However, there is possible wiggle room.

Prison, the college alternative?

T

housands of New York State families struggle every day to pay the costs of college education for their children. In most cases students are forced to mortgage their futures by borrowing to pay for college, graduating with an average debt of about $30,000 while earning a bachelorÕ s degree.

Now there may be an alternative for families who donÕ t have the money for college and students who donÕ t want to go deep into debt.

They can go to prison.

Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo has announced a new statewide initiative to give incarcerated individuals the opportunity to earn a college degree through funding college classes in prisons across New York. The governor cites studies that show college education for prisoners dramatically decreases recidivism rates while saving money.

Those who earn a college degree while in prison are less likely to end up behind bars again, he said, therefore decreasing the number of inmates in New York state prisons.

The initiative will provide college level education at 10 New York State prisons, one in each region of the state. The program would offer both associates and bachelorÕ s degrees.

“Giving men and women in prison the opportunity to earn a college degree costs our state less and benefits our society more,” Cuomo said.

“New York State currently spends $60,000 per year on every prisoner in our system, and those who leave have a 40 percent chance of ending up back behind bars. Existing programs show that providing a college education in our prisons is much cheaper for the state and delivers far better results. Someone who leaves prison with a college degree has a real shot at a second lease on life because their education gives them the opportunity to get a job and avoid falling back into a cycle of crime.Ó Cuomo may be right about providing college educations to criminals, but shouldnÕ t New York State be doing more to help hard-working, lawabiding families with college?

Costs to attend one of the 64 State University of New York campuses vary, but the average for the 2013-14 academic year is $22,700, according to SUNY. SUNY costs have increased an average of 8.6 percent a year for the past decade, according to a study by the Albany Times Union newspaper.

The average SUNY student earning a bachelor’s degree leaves school owing $22,575 in student loans, according to SUNY. The national average is $26,600.

That makes the SUNY system Ò an excellent value,Ó according to SUNY. Is it?

ItÕ s true SUNY costs can be half of some major

private colleges and universities, but often the actual costs to families and students are much higher at SUNY than at private schools. ThatÕ s because financial aid is virtually nil for a middle class student in SUNY, while private schools can offer attractive financial aid packages.

Not only does the lack of financial aid cost New York families, it forces many of its top students to leave the state for higher education. Often they leave and never come back.

Look at the case of a local student, a national merit scholarship semifinalist, whose college choice came down to SUNY-Geneseo and the University of Notre Dame.

The cost to attend Geneseo, arguably SUNY’s top academic campus, in 2013-14 is $21,670. Geneseo offered no scholarship assistance to the local student, although it did offer loans.

The cost to attend Notre Dame, generally ranked among the leading universities in the country, in 2013-14 is $57,117. Notre Dame offered the local student nearly $40,000 in scholarships.

In the end it cost the local family less to have their student attend a $57,117 university in Indiana than a $21,670 college in New York.

That situation is not unique, particularly among high-achieving, middle class students Ñ the very students New York State should be trying to keep at home.

CuomoÕ s plan to educate prison inmates may be sound, but it also seems like sound policy to promote a public education system that rewards New YorkÕ s best students and encourages them to keep their talents at home. Where is the help for those students?

Assembly Minority Leader Brian Kolb railed against the governorÕ s proposal. Ò If the state is going to hand out free college educations, why donÕ t we start with deserving students who actually respect the law?,” Kolb said. Ò This proposal is an insult to families struggling to find money for tuition, to young men and women who take on mountains of debt in student loans, and to the millions of New Yorkers who pay the highest taxes in the nation and are now asked to subsidize college degrees for criminals. Ò Paying for a college education is an issue that keeps parents up at night,” Kolb said. “It is a massive financial commitment that has become even more onerous as years have gone on. Any effort to reward convicts with something that law-abiding men and women can hardly afford is an affront to all New Yorkers.Ó We agree. Ñ

Freedom of choice and your local pharmacy I

am writing in behalf of Marble Works Pharmacy to make you aware of a proposed rule released by Medicare that affects all Part D beneficiaries regarding “Preferred Pharmacy NetworksÓ which were begun in January 2013.

We began getting calls from our patients at the end of 2012, once Medicare Open Enrollment was underway. They were confused and bewildered by the Part D Ò Preferred Pharmacy NetworkÓ offerings, and asked us to please join their Preferred Pharmacy networks so they could continue to use Marble Works as their provider, their choice, AND save money on their copays.

We assured them that of course we would; pharmacies contract with as many insurers as we can so that we can fill and process prescriptions for as many patients as walk through our door.

I confidently called the contracting departments of the insurance companies in question to request whatever addendum would be needed to ensure that all three of our Marble Works Pharmacy locations would be part of this new Ò Preferred Pharmacy NetworkÓ offering.

My next call, or so I thought, would be to those customers that had inquired, to tell them the good news that they had nothing to worry about Ð that they would not have to change pharmacies.

Imagine how it felt to be informed by the insurance companies that the Ò Preferred Pharmacy NetworkÓ was a closed door network that was not accepting any new providers; and that the process by which pharmacies were selected was “proprietary and confidential”. That they were currently reevaluating for 2014; what was supposed to happen to these members and providers in 2013? The potential impact, particularly on an independent community pharmacy like us is great; in our geographic area, Addison County, Vermont, which has a large agricultural base, potential copay savings are not a matter of pharmacy preference, as their representative indicated, they are aligned with the economic need of a population living on fixed incomes, coping with the same economic stresses of more urban areas. Fast forward to today: the contracts remained closed to almost all providers for 2014. Due to public outcry and intensive lobbying Medicare is finally examining this practice and looking for public comment before finalizing their ruling for 2015.

The Ò Preferred Pharmacy NetworkÓ contract is unfair to patients and pharmacies alike. Although it is true, as their representatives claimed, both chain and independent pharmacies still have Ò access to members as network providersÓ with no change to their current costs, and that member do not have change their providers, the so called Ò Preferred Pharmacy NetworkÓ indeed forces them to change pharmacy providers [in most cases] to realize any of the savings touted via reduced copays.

Which pharmacies were offered participation? When?

How was the one single provider (a regional supermarket chain) in our area chosen? If members do not shop at that chain, they must now make a special trip to access the Ô Preferred Pharmacy NetworkÓ , because we do, at least have competition in Addison County in our choice of grocery stores, if not pharmacies!

As long standing network providers we question the lack of transparency in the creation of these Ò Preferred Pharmacy NetworksÓ and feel that the methodology used to exclude pharmacies from participation, or to select those that do participate is biased and unfair. Healthcare reform mandates patient choice; healthy competition creates a robust marketplace. These Ò Preferred D NetworksÓ have eliminated both.

If a network pharmacy decides it cannot meet the pricing you seek for your members, that is one thing; but not being given the opportunity to compete is quite another.

If you agree, if you were forced to change pharmacies, if you believe in free enterprise and freedom of choice, please visit www.fight4rx.org to learn more and have your voice heard, or stop in to any Marble Works Pharmacy for more information.

Thank you for listening, and thank you to the many loyal Marble Works Pharmacy customers who have stayed with us through the years.

We are proud to be Addison CountyÕ s only independent community pharmacy and really do want to be your partner in healthcare!

Meeting discusses Creek Road rec project MIDDLEBURY Ñ At a public information meeting held Feb. 12, Middlebury Town Manager Kathleen Ramsay reviewed proposed revisions to the draft Term Sheet based on recent meetings with the UD3 Facilities Committee and UD 3 Board.

Both UD3 and the Middlebury Select Board have spoken in favor of creating a 99-year lease with the town for use of the Creek Road property to construct the new Middlebury Recreation Facility.

The Select Board discussed expanding language in the Term Sheet around the creation of a Shared Use Agreement for the facility between the Town and UD3 that would specify the Town’s priority role in programming the space.

Board member Craig Bingham raised an issue about statutory restrictions under Act 60 regarding school financing. The issue will go before the UD3 attorney for further discussion.

Public Hearing on the FY15 Budget MIDDLEBURY Ñ The Middlebury Select Board received comments on the proposed Town of Middlebury General Fund budget for FY15 totaling $9,154,323, with $6,526,393 to be funded by property taxes.

Resident Mark Mooney asked for additional information on the balance in the Fire Equipment Fund and upcoming equipment purchases.

Particularly, does the accumulated balance of the fund exceed planned expenditures?

If so, is there an opportunity to reduce the annual contribution to the fund? Selectboard Chair Dean George noted that while the balance of the fund may be significant, vehicles used in firefighting, including the ladder truck which is nearly 20 years old, are very expensive and will be considered for replacement in the next couple of years.

Mooney noted that the Fire Department takes excellent care of its equipment, and, perhaps, the effective life of the equipment could be reviewed and extended, if appropriate, pushing off replacement for a few more years.

Truck, car collide on Route 7

By Lou Varricchio

lou@addison-eagle.com PITTSFORD — At approximately 2:41 p.m., Feb. 18, Toyota Corolla driven by Wayne Holt, 74, of Brandon was traveling north on U.S. Route 7 in the area just north of the “Florence Truck RouteÓ to the OMYA plant. An eyewitness who was traveling southbound, saw the Toyota crossing the center yellow line and into the southbound lane of travel, causing a Mack tractor-trailer rig, driven by Samuel Young, 75, of Rutland—traveling southboundÑ to cross into the northbound lane of travel.

Subsequently, Holt and Young crashed head on, forcing the Toyota off the west side of Route 7 and the rig off the east side of Route 7.

Holt came to an uncontrolled rest against a small tree and fence.

During the crash, the rig overturned and came to rest on its roof. The Mack was hauling a large trailer filled with quarry rock; the trailer also overturned during the crash.

The northbound lane of the highway was blocked for approximately 2 hours, due to the overturned vehicle.

Both drivers were transported by Regional Ambulance to the Rutland Regional Medical Center for minor injuries sustained during the crash.

Anyone with information pertaining to this crash encouraged to contact the Vermont State Police at 802-773-9101.

Mooney also asked for additional information about local option tax receipts and the balance of the Cross Street Bridge Fund.

He suggested that since local option tax receipts have been so strong in the last few years, eventually resulting in the accumulation of a potentially significant amount in the Bridge Fund, the Board should consider other uses of the local option tax receipt.

Dean George noted that any other use of the funds except for debt service for and maintenance of the Cross Street Bridge, would need to be presented to the voters for their consideration, as when the local option tax was adopted its use was designated for financing the Cross Street Bridge.

Board Member Travis Forbes had questions about uniforms, salt and winter overtime in the Highway portion of the budget, which Director of Operations Dan Werner responded to.

Forbes also asked about the direct benefit to Middlebury residents of the TownÕ s support of the Otter Creek Child Center and asked if Middlebury College contributes to Addison County Court Diversion, as some students participate in their programs.

CASTLETON Ñ The Spartans look to earn their second straight trip to the USCSA National Championships when they travel to the USCSA Eastern Regionals last weekend at Sugarloaf Mountain Resort.

Castleton finished the regular season third in the ECSC MacConnell Division while finishing second or third in each of the final six regular season races. The Spartans took second in each of their final giant slalom races while placing third in the last three giant slalom competitions.

This year the duo of Simona Croccolo and Blaire Hooper have set the pace for Castleton. Croccolo finished the regular season 10th among Division skiers and her top finish of the season came in the giant slalom at Whiteface, as she paced fifth overall. Hooper took 12th during the regular season with her best race of the year coming at Crotched Mountain in the giant slalom, when she took fifth overall.

Senior Ali Spencer has been up and down this year, but last

year helped the Spartans to their second place finish at regionals by placing seventh overall in the slalom and taking 11th in the giant slalom. Sophomores Lisa Davis and Erin Luce have stepped up this year and will be expected to compete in both the slalom and giant slalom events.

The USCSA Eastern Regional Championships opened with the slalom and followed with the giant slalom last weekend.

Jones earns NESCAC honors MIDDLEBURY Ñ Middlebury College womenÕ s hockey player Annabelle Jones (Homer, N.Y.) has been named the NESCAC Player of the Week for the second time this season. The junior recorded a .942 save percentage after stopping 49 of the 52 shots she faced as Middlebury clinched the top seed in the upcoming NESCAC Championship by taking three points from Williams.

On Friday night, she made 27 saves, including a stellar stop late in the game as the Panthers earned a 3-2 win. The following day, she made 22 stops to earn a 1-1 road tie. She now leads the NESCAC with a 1.40 GAA.

The Week In Sports

CHAMPIONSHIP SEASON— The Middlebury Union High School’s football team was the 2013 state champions. The Friends of MUHS Football wanted to do something special for the team, so they decided to get all the players and coaches jackets showing the championship effort. Middlebury American Legion Post 27 was approached to help. Post 27 contributed $2,000 and MUHS Varsity Coach Dennis Smith was surprised.

Mullin

From page 1 were former Gov. Jim Douglas, and Bill Sayre, the former chairman of Central Vermont Public Service, who possesses a wealth of knowledge and experience in Vermont business and economics and politics.

Mullin is a lifelong Vermonter.

She grew up in Burlington, where her mother was a hotel chambermaid. Her family moved to Monkton when she was a teenager and she finished high school career at Mount Abraham Union High School.

Mullin has had a lifetime of struggle and achievement. When a divorce left her suddenly a single mother with an infant son, she supported her family by working in a factory, doing what she needed to do to make ends meet. SheÕ s also been a small business owner, at one time owning and operating a chain of craft stores in Chittenden County.

Today, Mullin is happily married to her husband Rob Mullin, a Burlington firefighter. She has three sons; two are grown, and the youngest is a freshman at MAUHS. Several years ago, when her younger son was small, and before she had any political aspirations, Mullin decided she needed a new challenge. She set her sights on the Mary Kay cosmetics company, a business she could run from her home.

As a working stay-at-home mother, her instinctive drive and tireless efforts landed her in the top 2 percent of Mary Kay representatives nationally, where she remains today. She is also a mentor to 70 Mary Kay representatives across the country.

Mullin has become increasingly worried about the direction of Vermont politics and policies. She believes the current representation in Montpelier is crushing opportunity through suffocating taxes and regulations. Part of her concern is the out-migration of young people from Vermont, seeking opportunities in less regulated, more business friendly states. That, combined with having one of the oldest populations in the country, is for a recipe for a dismal future, putting more pressure on services with fewer working people to provide tax revenues.

As she observed that the two current Representatives of Addison 4 continued to run unopposed, Mullin determined that a change was in order.

The common cry of somebody should do something turned into ÒI guess thatÕ s me,Ó ac cording to Mullin.

High taxes and a difficult regulatory environment make it difficult to attract or retain business, said Mullin.

She pointed out that every day individual Vermonters make hard choices about their wants and needs. ÒI think Vermonters can live within our means. We need to ask our state to live by family values. The more Vermonters are working, the more that is taken (through taxation). We need to say Òn oÓ now to good things so we can say Òy esÓ later to the things that are best.Ó Mullin is also focused on Green Mountain Care, the state’s single-payer law, due to take effect in 2017.

Mullin contends that the Vermont legislature pushed the law through so fast that most people donÕ t even know what it is, or how it will affect them. ÒO ne choice is no choice,Ó she said, noting that it will require a tripling of the general fund budget to pay for Green Mountain

March 1, 2014 Care. ÒT riplingÉÓ she repeated, letting it sink in with her audience.

Ex Gov. Douglas addressed the crowd, saying that Mullin’s message is exactly what people need to hear. ÒT he message is right on. I worry a good deal about where the state is headed.Ó He, too, noted the demographic trends of out-migration, the lowest birth rate in the nation, an aging population and an unpredictable business environment. ÒPeo ple canÕ t live with uncertainty Ð uncertain energy sources, health care, huge property tax increases while school populations decline. These things discourage investment.Ó Douglas cited MullinÕ s real world experience, an understanding of what the average Vermonter faces, and a resume that is Òi mpressiveÓ. He also spoke about legislative balance and compromise, something that has been missing in Montpelier for years, with the Democrats holding large majorities. ÒA lopsided government is not in the public interest,Ó said Douglas, noting that it applies equally to both parties.

In the coming months, Mullin plans to communicate her message and positions to voters across the district, talking directly to the people she hopes to represent.

As for any opposition she encounters, Mullin hopes for respectful dialogue. She plans to listen with respect and an open mind to opposing viewpoints, as well as advancing her own. ÒN othing is more powerful than the truth,Ó she said. Supporters believe her message is what most local voters want to hear.

History of Oil & Gas From page 1

to come.

Over 30 states have been using hydraulic fracturing or fracking technology instead of traditional drilling methods. Fracking requires chemically treated water to be injected below ground to liberate gas and oil locked inside deep, ancient rocks.

According to the New York State Petroleum CouncilÔ s Executive Director Karen Moreau, those states with oil and gas deposits will see their bottom line greatly improved by taking fracking route. Ò Natural gas development will give a huge shot in the arm to many economically depressed areas of upstate New York,Ó Moreau said in a public statement that was released last summer following an Empire State court appeal which indicated that efforts to ban hydraulic fracturing would be reviewed.

So was MontpelierÕ s move to ban fracking in Vermont an illconceived, knee-jerk reaction? Probably not, if youÕ re a member of the stateÕ s environmental community. which has long been against Big Oil and the use of fossil fuels.

“I’m very proud that Vermont will become the first state to ban fracking for natural gas,Ó Paul Burns, executive director of the Vermont Public Interest Research Group was quoted in multiple reports during 2012. “I think it’s a great thing for the protection of VermontÕ s critical natural resources, our air, land, water, and to protect public health. And it also sends a very strong message to folks in many other states who are taking on the gas and oil industry.Ó Conversely, fracking proponents think Vermont banned fracking without knowing what fossil-fuel resources it was shuttering up forever. Ó We donÕ t know what our assets are in this stateÉ ,Ó said Rep. Heidi Scheuermann of Stowe who objected to H. 464. “We have no idea if some farmers in Franklin County might be able take advantage of an economic opportunity on their property.Ó Oil and gas expert John Kingston, of McGraw Hill Financial’s online Barrel review, has pointed to what he calls the Vermont Paradox following the stateÕ s fracking ban. Ò The stateÕ s desire to use more natural gas even as it has banned fracking as an intolerable evil was always amusing to watch,” according to Kingston. “But it took place against a backdrop where most of the stateÕ s electricity was being generated by an emissions-free nuclear power plant. Vermont Yankee provided the state the luxury to be low on the emissions scale, have adequate supplies of power, while simultaneously criticizing fossil fuels and planning for a renewable future. That luxury is goingÑ hard choices await.Ó Conclusion

of a recent agreement between GMP and all four Rutland County colleges to work together to bolster economic, educational and community development. The talks are given by faculty from each of the Rutland County colleges, and explore a variety of energy issues, including the science of energy, renewable power, financial concerns, and the psychology of energy use.

In addition to the College of St. Joseph, the other participating colleges are Green Mountain College, Community College of Vermont and Castleton State College.

sue that is unique in the building of industrial wind turbines: a societal acceptance that the health and well being of some neighbors will be sacrificed for what is perceived to be the greater good,Ó according to Becker. Ò The controversy over wind turbines is escalating in Vermont as more projects are proposed for rural mountaintops. Ô Winds of ChangeÕ explores the conflicts inherent in placing wind turbines on VermontÕ s hills.Ó With Vermont Yankee closing later this year, an oil and gas fracking ban in effect since 2012, and more imported Canadian energy coming into the state, Vermonters are about to face some giant spikes in electrical generation costsÑ thus, Ò Winds of ChangeÓ couldnÕ t have better timing in the Green Mountain State’s emerging energy crisis.

VERGENNES — Wind turbines are supposed to be a politically correct alternative energy source which helps replace fossil-fuel and nuclearpower sources. However, all is not rosey in greenlandÕ s garden as illustrated by the often rancorous NIMBY debate over wind-turbine placement.

The effort to site the giant, birdkilling turbines, while of serious consequence to landowners and its impact on heretofor pristine ridgelines, has split the Vermont environmental movement (much to the delight of those supporting more reliable and equally carbonless sources such as nuclear).

Now along comes Ò Winds of ChangeÓ , a Vermont drama about a

Eco activist Annette Smith, executive director of Vermonters for a Clean Environment, has seen the play. Ò It presents powerful insights into a changing landscape,Ó she saidÑ but with no further comments about the good or evil of placing wind turbines on Vermont mountaintops. Ò Winds Of ChangeÓ appearance in Vergennes isn’t the first time it has appeared in the region The play was first produced a year ago at Off Center for the Dramatic Arts in Burlington. In months since its premiere, it has emerged as doubly more relevant as the problems associated with wind turbines are affecting more and more VermontersÑ and even continuing to pit environmentalist against environmentalist, state legislator against state legislator. Ò The play obliquely raises an is-

family transformed as wind-power towers go up on a mountain ridge behind their farm.

This powerful dramatized take on a controversial local issue will be read by a group of actors on Saturday, March 1, at 6 p.m., at the Bixby Memorial Library in downtown Vergennes.

The special reading will be presented to the public by In House Productions for free.

According to Ò Winds...Ó playwright Lesley Becker, Ò the new play is set in a town enmeshed in heated controversy as their rural community undergoes momentous changes during construction of a large-scale utility project. The play examines the impact on the lives of families living close by the wind towers, and the tension between competing values.Ó
