Critics NO SPEED BUMPS ALLOWED! blast veto of energy siting bill

By Michael Bielawski Vermont Watchdog Report

MOntPElIEr — What was originally expected to be a routine veto session last week turned into a political standoff at the Statehouse and the outcome could have consequences for the upcoming election. after months of debating how to give Vermonters control over renewable energy siting and relief from wind turbine noise, lawmakers last Thursday used a special session to benefit the wind energy lobby and the developers they represent.

The outcome isn’t sitting well with those who want accountable government in the Green Mountain State.

When it comes to cheddar, Middlebury is the Big Cheese

By Lou Varricchio lou@addison-eagle.com

Greg Douillard, Agri-Mark plant and project engineer, and Jim Tringe, Agri-Mark’s director of plant services, were on hand last week to make sure the 22-ton CheddarMaster was off-loaded and set in place properly at the Middlebury plant.

MIddlEBurY — agri-Mark’s Middlebury cheese-making facility, located in the industrial park on Exchange Street, really is the “big cheese” among new England cheesemaking plants. according to company spokesperson doug diMento, most of agri-Mark’s award-winning Cabot cheddar cheese is manufactured at the cooperative’s largest factory in Middlebury. now, a section of the Middlebury plant is in the midst of construction of a $10 million annex which includes the latest and greatest in stainless steel CheddarMaster conveyors.

The science and art of cheesemaking may seem arcane to the food-consuming public, but the custom-built Middlebury unit is fitted with rotating fingers for air-rating cheese curd within the conveyor system—and apparently that’s music to the ears of cheesemongers in the know.

Fest of Fidos includes 5k, food, fun—for a good cause

By Laura Koster & Jen Wyman

VErGEnnES — If you love dogs, food, and lost of fun, then you’ll want to celebrate your four-legged friends at Basin Harbor Club and the resort’s annual Festival of Fidos. This one day event takes place June 26 at the lake Champlain resort located just outside Vergennes.

Basin Harbor Club staffers are proud each year to show their support for canines and for the second year they are partnering with lacey’s Fund. lacey’s Fund is committed to the Vermont Police Canine association (VPCa) and their families to help fund care after retirement. The goal of this event is to raise awareness and funds for lacey’s Fund so they can continue their wonderful work.

Festival of Fidos started in 2012 as a tribute to dogs and

their importance to us as family members. as a dog-friendly resort, Basin Harbor Club is committed to treating canines as valued guests. The event kicks off with our 15th annual 5K race for dogs and their humans. Patrons can expect up to five demonstrations from K-9 units, agility and Green Mountain dock dogs. Vendors for both humans and canines will be highlighted as well as fair food. Kids will have their own area for entertainment with face painting, jumpy houses and lawn games. The agility arena will be available for all dogs to try their skills.

Something new this year is the addition of an Iron dog ½ led by VPCa teams. Basin Harbor’s doggy beach and narrated lake cruises will also be available for dogs and owners.lacey’s Fund was established six years ago specifically to benefit retired police dogs of the Vermont Canine Police association.

The goal of lacey’s Fund is to assist handlers with the re-

sources needed to enable these retired police dogs to live out the remainder of their days in good health which is the very least we can do in recognition of their contribution to our communities. Since lacey’s Fund was established, it has assisted over 30 retired police canines with their medical expenses.

From the Editor

Terrible lizards of New England “The Connecticut Valley just doesn’t fit an image of a world where bizarre reptiles once menaced their prey, brandishing monstrous teeth and terrible claws,” writes Brendan Hanrahan, author of “...In the Connecticut Valley of the dinosaurs”. He also reminds us that the word dinosaur, coined by richard Owen in 1842, is Greek for “terrible lizard”.

Certainly, most of us don’t think of Vermont, let alone other new England states, when we think of dinosaur fossils.

It’s true that no dinosaur remains have been found in the Green Mountain State so far, but—as Hanrahan points out—researchers are confident that the dinosaurs were indeed in our backyard millions of years ago. not too far to the south of us, in the Connecticut Valley of Massachusetts and Connecticut, trace fossils of early meat-eating theropod dinosaurs have been found.

Our region’s best dinosaur site is open yearround to the public at rocky Hill, Conn.

Connecticut’s dinosaur State Park preserves a slab of a petrified Jurassic muddy lakeshore with hundreds of track prints from dinosaurs large and small.

The famous rocky Hill site, discovered by accident in 1966 during a construction job, dates to the transition of the triassic to the Jurassic periods. today, it’s an amazing place to visit, where you can glimpse, through a window back in time, prehistoric new England and its lost world of dinosaurs.

The late, sci-fi author Michael Crichton would be proud—that’s why you can think of this park as new England’s very own “Jurassic Park” (minus the dino GMOs, thankfully).

Outside dinosaur State Park’s geodesic-dome enclosed dino trackway, you can walk through a

Published by New Market Press, Inc.

delightful arboretum of “living fossils” with conifer and flowering trees that still thrive today with little genetic variation from the Mesozoic. amid the monkey puzzle, magnolia, and redwood trees, you’ll get a genuine feel for the kind of forests and swamps covering all of new England, including Vermont, during the Mesozoic era. running from the Carolinas north, through Pennsylvania and new Jersey, and up along the Connecticut Valley—and the eastern side of Vermont , then on into nova Scotia—are outcrops of the so-called newark Basin rocks, evidence of a prehistoric rift valley, formed 200 million years ago.

Within this ancient basin, lava rocks along with the vestiges of volcanic vents, can be found along the prehistoric fault line.

From new England trace fossils, we know dinosaurs dodged falling ash and lava flows in search of food and water.

Much like today’s Great rift Valley of eastern africa, triassic-Jurassic new England and africa were pulling apart, all subject to the immense, slow-moving tectonic forces along this segment of the former supercontinent of Pangaea. according to Hanrahan, in parts of northwest africa, you can find rocks and dinosaur traces that match, perfectly, with those found in our Connecticut Valley—evidence that new England and africa were once joined at the hip, so to speak.

While the “terrible lizards” of new England might make a cool name for a hometown baseball team, the term better tells us what our backyard was like 200 million years ago. For me, it calls to mind lord tennyson’s famous poem: “Creation’s final law… nature, red in tooth and claw.”

Publisher’s Column

A time for unity I

t’s Sunday afternoon and once again we are shocked at the senseless death of 49 people and another 53 seriously injured who were going about their lives in Orlando when a lone terrorist, who had pledged his allegiance to ISIS, opened fire. as more facts and details come to light there will be plenty of time for finger pointing and blame, but for now our thoughts and prayers need to be with those who lost their lives, those injured in the attack and their Dan Alexander families.

Thoughts from like so many of these events whether it be Behind the Pressline homegrown terror, deranged individuals, or foreign countries who have declared war on our country these are times when we need to come together and not tear ourselves apart over political differences.

We can’t be so divided that we over look our most common of interests, keeping the country and her citizens safe, especially here in our homeland.

Our security personnel have an extremely difficult job, made even more difficult by the open society we all enjoy in this country, but all too often take for granted.

Early indications are the gunman had been looked at twice in recent years by the FBI for terrorist threats, but lacked sufficient evidence to pursue any charges.

Our fair judicial system restricts us from locking up folks who speak of hate toward others yet when the dust settles we will need to seek solutions that help the authorities deal with radical influences that drive individuals to take such heinous actions. There is an estimated 15,000 individuals in the country today that have communicated, in one way or another, with ISIS. In the coming days and weeks this event will be a hot topic in the presidential campaigns and I fear our political climate will disrespect those who lost their lives by using the event to drive an agenda instead of seeking solutions on a more united front.

We know politics has a way of bringing out the worst in people. We can only hope the party posturing, with this event as a back drop, is done in a positive way that brings the country together and not in a way that causes more senseless violence in our streets, while wasting time of law enforcement controlling us instead of seeking out true terrorist perpetrators.

It’s clear that no country is immune from this form of warfare which seeks to kill the helpless non-combatants and terrorize the masses with brutal, unthinkable actions. Military might and powerful weapons are no match for sole gunmen who strike without notice and place no value on their own survival.

Internal infighting and fear is their only goal and we must not allow them to gain this advantage by playing into their hands. The country and the world must be united to defeat this plague.

New Haven survey To the editor: I’d like to correct some statements made in your (recent) editorial about the Vermont Green line.

1st, The picture that was shown is not the picture of the proposed converter station. Check out new Haven’s website and look at the true picture.

2nd, The survey was not sponsored by national Grid. It was sponsored by the town of new Haven and the Select Board.

3rd, We had three informational meetings leading up to the survey with mailers to every household prior to each meeting as well as info and an invitation to participate in both the meetings and the survey. The invitation to the meetings and to fill out the survey was also in the town’s newsletter. all residents have had multiple and repeated opportunities to be informed and to participate in the survey.

4th, The Select Board had provided five days before the open day of May 24, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. to fill out the survey.

We, personally had hoped for a much larger turn out but those who wanted to participate came out.

5th, after the results of the survey were read, the Select Board had a meeting in which all five members voted to move forward to enter into negotiations with VGl/ambaric to finalize a contract.

We hope you will put this correction on your website and print it in your paper.

Carole Hall & Steve Dupoise Town of New Haven EditorÕ s note: Thank you for your comments. We had contacted National Grid about the survey and are under the strong impression that the utility was involved in crafting the survey, but we regret if there was any confusion.

The photo we used was a stock image of a typical D.C. conversion facility of the type often described in the news; it was clearly used for illustration purposes only. The image you mentioned was never made available to the Eagle.

As to how town residents were canvassed for the survey, we still believe the results reflect a small sampling, considering the townÕ s overall population.

Regarding Selectperson Doug TollesÕ quote we included, weÕ re curious to learn more about how the lure of a new fire station may have sweetened the pot?— L.V.

Future of Northlands To the editor: You may have learned that the u.S. department of labor has decided to open a new competition for the contract to operate the northlands Job Corps Center in Vergennes.

I am writing to let you know that CHP International (CHP), in partnership with Education and training resources (Etr), intends to compete vigorously to remain the operator at northlands.

We and our northlands staff have made very significant improvements in the past 30 months: vastly improved relations with the community of Vergennes; steady improvement in the results of the twice-yearly student satisfaction survey; and steady improvement in the caliber of the managers and staff working at the center.

We believe that these and other improvements create the necessary conditions for improvement in some of the outcome measures on which northlands lags behind expectations.

We believe, too, that students at northlands will be much better off if CHP and Etr are permitted to continue the work we have begun than if northlands is disrupted by another transition so soon after the last one in december 2013.

The competition will bring our competitors to Vergennes, and a “walk-through” of the center has been scheduled for June 9. Some of the attendees may arrive days earlier or remain for days afterward to conduct onthe-ground research in preparation for developing their proposals. Others may show up a week or so later. These people may contact you, looking for potential linkages that might be useful to them, for example, with schools, businesses and community organizations. Of course, you will make your own decisions about whom you speak with and what you say.

CHP’s purpose in writing this is primarily in the interest of continued strong communication between northlands, CHP International and the residents of Vergennes, addison County, and the State of Vermont.

We hope we have earned your support. Thank you.

Visitors to the award-winning 18-hole, public Ralph Myhre Golf Course, located on the Middlebury College campus, are in for a brand new treat this summer season. A new, independently operated restaurant is now open to the public. Along with its connected full bar, Above Par Food & Spirits officially opened its doors during the college’s big 2016 reunion weekend June 11-12.

It’s a ‘hole in one’ for Above Par Food & Spirits!

By Lou Varricchio

MIddlEBurY — Visitors to the award-winning 18-hole, public ralph Myhre Golf Course, located on the Middlebury College campus, are in for a brand new treat this summer season. a new, independently operated restaurant is now open to the public. along with its connected full bar, above Par Food & Spirits opened its doors during the college’s big 2016 reunion weekend June 11-12.

This fresh, new venture at the college’s golf course is owned by restaurateur torrie Blake, of Pittsford. He is joined by above Par’s General Manager Brittney Curavoo. according to Curavoo, the new restaurant is serving fresh local food with a full bar including a nifty variety of local tap brews.

Chef larry nowakowski, originally from Baltimore, Md., will satisfy the tastes of above par’s customers. He brings a variety of delightful, savory menu offerings to the table. nowakowski was tapped by Blake and Curavoo to head up the new venture’s kitchen; in fact, he traveled all the way to Middlebury from Florida just to don the chef ’s traditional toque blanche. nowakowski is no stranger to our region. While he attended culinary school in California—and worked as a chef in both the uSa and France—rutland residents and seasonal guests will remember him as the outstanding head chef at the former Griffin’s Publick House on Center Street. ralph Myhre’s Business Manager derek Kram is pleased about this new jewel in the golf course’s crown.

Kram said that the course’s board of directors were looking for new ways to make the area work even better. and while the college didn’t have a liquor license, the board felt outsourcing the dining services and bar was the best thing to do. “torrie was invited to submit a proposal for a restaurant,” Kram told the Eagle. “It all happened very quickly. above Par really helps complete the programming—now you can ‘play nine and dine.’”

Kram noted that the above Par establishment is attached to the ralph Myhre Pro Shop, in the lower level of the Kirk alumni Building.

Curavoo, who manages the dining and bar operation, is especially proud of above Par’s menu.

“Chef nowakowski likes to call the menu ‘healthy with the devil on your shoulder,’” she said, clearly delighted with above Par’s sly turn of phrase. ”We’re serving fresh food, local food with our speciality—custom burgers, sandwiches, and mini fresh baguettes.”

One of nowakowski’s specialities is steak.

For example, using locally raised steer from the Vermont Farm Beef Co-op, the chef does a braze of beef, set overnight, for a steak-and-cheese sandwich that’s truly to die for. also, the chef ’s quirky, signature “Elvis Burger” is a delicious, sweet-and-savory menu surprise named after the King of rock and rolls, but we won’t reveal the details—order one for yourself and find out. regardless of which above Par burger you choose, all are served on a special Portuguese roll which is entirely wholesome and won’t fill you up with extra carbs—think English muffin, but superior.

Meanwhile, above Par’s full bar boasts everything, including six Vermont beers on tap. The brews are all kept quite civilized in a special chill-out chamber, at a comfy 22 degrees Fahrenheit.

Owner torrie Blake is fondly remembered for his red Moon Saloon, located on Post Street, in rutland where he always displayed his dining and bar professionalism.

“We’re excited about this happening,” Blake said. “It’s a thing that was needed, and now it’s happening; there’s lots of excitement with the opening. It happened quickly. We signed a lease in early May and opened by end of May with a full restaurant, and liquor and beer license. rumors had circulated a few weeks before above Par opened, but now the cat’s out of the bag. a quiet opening in late May was followed with the public grand opening last weekend. located at 317 Golfcourse rd., in Middlebury, typical dining room and bar hours are 11 a.m.– 7 p.m., Monday through Friday, and 11 a.m.-9 p.m., Saturday and Sunday. For more details, call 802-443-5126.

CSJ names new athletic director

By James Lambert

rutland — College of St. Joseph has named Jeff Brown as the new athletic director. Brown, a native of Schenectady, n.Y., comes to CSJ from albany academy, where he served as the principal for the elementary school for the past seven years.

Brown has dedicated the majority of his career to education, but another passion is athletics. now, he has the opportunity to merge the two.

“It has always been a goal of mine to get into higher education,” he said. “It’s a great opportunity to use my academic background to help student-athletes. It’s a perfect fit.”

Brown has served as assistant coach for Columbia – Greene Community College, Schenectady County Community College

and albany academy. He has also coached double-a professional baseball and junior varsity basketball at Schalmont High School in Schenectady.

He also has years of experience on the field as a player for St. John’s university. His abilities earned him a spot with the Houston astros in the 75th round of the 1990 MlB amateur draft. two years later, Brown was picked up by the detroit tigers in the 33rd round of the MlB amateur draft. He was also an Olympic nominee that year. However, an elbow injury ended his professional baseball career. now, he’s using what he learned as both a player and principal in his new role, which he officially began June 1. He has hopes to expand the college’s athletic offerings in the

coming years, while adding more competitive teams to the schedule.

“The general goal is to maintain and expand on the success we’ve already had, and expand the offerings available to our studentathletes,” he said.

Brown replaces Interim athletic director Bob Godlewski, who continues to serve as director of public safety and head baseball coach. Godlewski oversaw CSJ athletics during an incredible run of success that saw eight trips to the uSCaa national tournament across all of the college’s athletic teams and national championships in women’s basketball and baseball.

Brown holds a Master of Science in Elementary Education from The College of Saint rose and a bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice from St. John’s university.

Making sense of the climate change battle Ethan Allen Institute Report

C

itizens without a physical science background naturally find it hard to know what to believe about the claims put forth by those who believe in a coming human-caused climate catastrophe.

The climate alarmists – for want of a better description - define “climate change” as increasingly serious and potentially catastrophic changes in global temperatures, sea levels, sea ice, glacier melt, hurricanes, droughts, floods, and species extinction, caused by the carbon dioxide released by humans who burn fossil fuels to power their economy and lifestyles.

With increasing urgency, they declare that “climate change is real!”, “97% of scientists agree that the science is settled,” and there’s nothing left to discuss. They paint those who ask for credible scientific evidence not merely as “skeptics” – fair enough - but as contemptible, ignorant, right-wing anti-science “deniers” – as in Holocaust deniers–most likely on the take from the evil fossil fuel companies.

The deliberate intent of this vitriolic onslaught is not only to mock the skeptics, but to deny them any opportunity to make their case, and to destroy the reputation of anyone who isn’t willing to subscribe to the frightening pronouncements of al Gore, Bernie Sanders, Peter Shumlin, and VPIrG. last year a survey by the Oxford university Press’s Climate Change and Society found that “by the end of 2010, 467 unique organizations had been identified as part of the national climate change movement. The Climate action network, with its 900 global member groups, formed the largest coalition”. This public relations machine is amply funded by lots of government, liberal foundation, and special interest dollars.

Which special interests? Mainly the renewable energy industry, that thrives on subsidies for themselves and expensive burdens placed on their competitors. They are supported by a sizable number of politicians who understand that when governments take control of energy, they get control of the whole energy-dependent economy, which liberals find very agreeable.

The party’s getting rough. last September twenty government-supported academics, including dr. alan Betts of Pittsford, Vermont, demanded that the Obama Justice department launch an investigation of climate skeptics and their organizations, under the racketeer Influenced Criminal Organization (rICO) act.

Then on March 29 a group of democratic state attorneys general, prominently including Vermont’s William Sorrell, joined al Gore to announce a coordinated effort to explore litigation against fossil fuel companies for the questionable offense of not telling the world whatever they knew about climate thirty years ago.

There are of course many sincere individuals and organizations with a justifiable concern about the climate effects of fossil fuel combustion, who won’t stoop to vilifying skeptics and demanding their prosecution. They are however far less visible in the media than the heavily funded organizations denouncing “climate deniers”.

What particularly annoys informed skeptics is that they are dedicated defenders, not deniers, of science. They all agree that the Earth’s climate is always changing, and that the human-caused increase in carbon dioxide emissions makes some contribution to increased global temperatures. But as scientists, they ask that the proponents of catastrophic climate change produce observational evidence – not merely their own contrived (and increasingly failed) supercomputer programs - for the proposition that human-caused greenhouse gas emissions have been the dominant cause of a global temperature increase since 1950, and it will get worse over the next century unless curtailed.

The skeptics also ask that the alarmists explain why the global climate at the end of the little Ice age (around 1850) was better for humanity than today’s one degree C warmer climate. They refuse to accept, without evidence, the “positive feedback” conjecture that the alarmists say transforms slow, naturally variable temperature changes into a climate catastrophe. and they observe that atmospheric carbon dioxide gives us the immeasurable benefit of the growth of plants that feed animals and humans.

The skeptics are indignant that some prominent climate scientists have refused to make public their data – a serious scientific no-no. Some have been caught actually falsifying data, such as the “hockey stick graph” of the 1990s.

Big money is riding on the climate change debate. That’s why big money is being spent so lavishly to bankroll the climate change propaganda campaign, and also by the fossil fuel industry defending itself against extinction. a win for the alarmists means more reliance on high-priced, subsidized, and non-dispatchable energy sources like Big Wind and Big Solar, plus billions more in taxpayer dollars that Obama’s Paris agreement requires the West to ship to struggling third world

countries to compensate them for forswearing the cheaper energy they want for economic growth and well-being. a rational person needs to focus on the actual science, not what the warring interests, the un’s IPCC, and headlineseeking politicians and media claim about the science. He or she should insist that all scientists submit their work to open debate and respond to the hard questions, instead of heaping abuse on the questioners.

That’s a tall order for most readers. a fallback alternative is to discount the alarmist claims, oppose their tax, subsidy and mandate prescriptions, and hope that this highly politicized episode soon blows over before we’re taxed-poor and energystarved.

John McClaughry is vice president of the Ethan Allen Institute. The Institute has never sought or received any funding related to the climate change debate.

Middlebury fire truck concerns

MIddlEBurY — at a recent public meeting, Middlebury Select Board member laura asermily and Fire Chief david Shaw reported meeting of a ladder truck subcommittee to discuss the status of Middlebury F.d.’s ladder 1, which suffered a catastrophic failure of the swivel in the waterway of the 105-ft. ladder during a recent training exercise.

The subcommittee, which had been charged last year with considering the pros and cons of refurbishing the 23-year-old truck versus replacing the unit, agreed with Shaw’s recommendation not to pursue repair of the swivel at an estimated cost of $35,700, given the truck’s estimated resale value is only about $70,000.

Shaw noted that the ladder truck can still be used for rescue and that Vergennes’ 75-ft. ladder is available for emergency coverage via a Shared use agreement.

Select Board member Brian Carpenter noted that the update on ladder 1 was for information only, and that the Board would continue the discussion around whether to refurbish or replace the truck in the context of upcoming FY17 budget planning.

A comet appears over Vermont MIddlEBurY — Comet C/2013 X1—or simply Comet X1—will be visible in the Vermont sky this month for backyard observers with binoculars or small telescopes. The comet will not be visible with the naked eye. according to astronomer Eddie Irizarry, editor of astronomy Essentials on the EarthSky website, the comet has slightly increased in brightness with a magnitude around 6.8.

“That means it’s not visible to the unaided eye, but it is visible in binoculars and small telescopes. Comets have shown to be unpredictable, so monitoring is encouraged,” Irizarry noted.

The comet is over 59 million miles distant, and its closest approach to Earth—and Vermont—will occur June 21-22; the closest point actually happens during the early morning hours of June 22. “don’t expect to see a glamorous tail; the comet is showing

modest twin tails in recent long exposure images, but visually, using a small telescope, it will look like a dim patch of haze or a small ball of cotton,” Irizarry added. “Still, it’s always fascinating to see a celestial visitor that came from the distant Oort cloud.” to view the comet’s closest approach, look in the southern sky in the constellation Sagittarius late at night or during the early morning June 21-22 (see Irizarry’s skymap).

Note: Eagle editor Lou Varricchio was a NASA science writer. He teaches astronomy at Community College of Vermont.

Sleep blamed on Route 116 accident StarKSBOrO — On May 30, at approximately 8 a.m., Vermont State Police troopers were advised of a single car motor vehicle crash on route 116 in the town of Starksboro. upon arrival, State Police located the operator, identified as allen Macknair, 68, of Petersburg, n.Y. Macknair told police that prior to the collision, he had been travelling southbound on route 116 at approximately 45-50 mph.

Macknair advised police that he believed he fell asleep, subsequently leaving his lane of travel, colliding with a guardrail and travelling down an embankment.

Macknair did not suffer injuries, however, he was subsequently transported to uVM Medical Center as a precaution.

VSP investigators do not believe alcohol or drugs played a factor in the collision.

Rutland blooms!

W hen the idea for rutland Blooms first blossomed, we never could have dreamed of what it would become or the impact it would have in the City of rutland. Its success is emblematic of the larger story of rutland’s rebirth, born of unprecedented collaboration.

Starting with the restoration of the Paramount Theatre 16 years ago and continuing with the resurgence of downtown rutland, the Solar Capital initiative, the investments of Castleton university and the refocusing of rutland Economic development Corp., teamwork has been the first ingredient in rutland’s ongoing revitalization. From the Gift-of-life Marathon to the response to major crises, rutlanders have banded together time and time again to take on big challenges. and so it is with rutland Blooms. dozens of businesses, organizations and individuals have stepped forward to provide leadership, money, labor, expertise and inspiration – and the results are growing exponentially.

Flowerboxes grace the new “Welcome to rutland” signs at key city entrances. Hundreds of flowering crabapple trees are adding new life and beauty to city gateways, the northwest neighborhood and city streets in general. Main Street Park is lined with new maples, and the new Baxter Street Park is ringed with newly planted gorgeous, mature flowering trees. and the largest project yet, including major plantings along Strongs avenue, is just weeks from commencing.

These projects are improving the cityscape, demonstrating a commitment to civic pride and beauty, and bringing together people and organizations from all walks of life for the common good. They include: ·City Forester dave Schneider, whose expertise, creativity, planning and work ethic are at the heart of rutland Blooms’ success.

·linda Miller and dozens of GE aviation coworkers, who volunteer hundreds of manhours each year, and provide substantial financial support. ·Castleton university, which stepped forward as a key financial partner with Green Mountain Power and connects students with Blooms efforts. ·nanci Gordon and the united Way of rutland County, which provides back-office support, including invoice payment, banking, etc. ·Garden time and Pratico’s landscaping and Fence Company, among the most giving, caring local businesses imaginable, which have repeatedly provided free labor, plants, soil, expertise and goodwill. ·asplundh tree Experts, new England trees and Vaillancourt tree Service, which have provided substantial financial and technical assistance. ·Bonnie O’rourke, who solicits volunteers, plans work parties, focuses on job-site safety, and ensures required resources are onsite for every project.

The following businesses and people who have provided additional, significant financial support that makes rutland Blooms possible: The Bakery/roots, Casella’s, Engineering Services of Vermont, Enman-Kesselring Engineering, Greenscreen Graphics, Heritage Family Credit union, John and Paula Valente, Keyser Energy, laurie Mecier-Brochu, Marble Valley transit authority, Mark Foley Jr., Mary Powell and Mark Brooks, Omya, rich Carlson, rutland redevelopment authority, rutland regional Medical Center, and VElCO. rutland is blessed to be home to caring and generous people who take great pride in the city and support rutland Blooms. Thanks to their generosity, we envision continued

growth in Blooms’ efforts in the years ahead, focused on making rutland an ever-morebeautiful place to live, work and play.

rutland — On June 5 at 1:51 a.m., Vermont State Police responded to route 103 in Shrewsbury for a report of a single vehicle crash into a guard rail with no injury or roadway hazards. upon arriving on scene, the vehicle was found parked on the side of the road where the crash had occurred. The operator of the vehicle, was identified as Brandson laferrier, age 20, of rutland, Vermont. It was determined that laferrier and his passenger were not injured in the crash.

The crash was caused due to the vehicle leaving the lane of traffic. a contributing factor to the crash was determined to be that the operator of the vehicle was fatigued and possibly fell asleep while operating. lack of injury was partially attributed to proper seat belt use and effectiveness of the guard rail in preventing the vehicle from going over a steep embankment.

Cheddar Master From page 1

22 tons. Its official name is the draining and Matting Conveyor or dMC. It drains the whey from the curd which matts together and it’s stretched (like plastic), drained, then salt is added before it goes to the block-forming towers to produce the 42 pound blocks. CheddarMaster is the company that makes this conveyer,” diMento said. diMento said that a foundation had to be built at the Exchange Street plant first, with the new building housing going in and around the huge dMC device.

“The Middlebury plant incorporates the latest in cheese-making technology to produce over 150,000 pounds of high quality cheddar cheese each production day,” diMento said. “after being boxed and labeled, the cheese is stored at a 54,000 square foot cheddar-aging warehouse located on site.”

The Middlebury plant has been the beneficiary of the public’s craving for cheddar cheese.

In 2000, agri-Mark’s members committed $20 million for a whey protein concentrating facility.

The 2000 upgrade brought whey protein concentration to 80 percent, dubbed “WPC 80” by the industry’s standards.

With the market for whey proteins growing annually, the upgrade proved to be an excellent investment for the cooperative, according to agri-Mark.

The Middlebury plant also manufactures bovine lactoferrin, “a nutritional whey protein found in cow’s milk and is a natural antimicrobial protein and an immuno-modulator.” agri-Mark produces 70 million pounds of cheese annually at the Middlebury plant. “Combined we produce more than 120 million pounds of cheese,” diMento said.

IN THE DOG HOUSE — Walker Bartlett of the Bristol Elementary School designed and built a dog house for Homeward Bound, Addison County’s Humane Society, in Middlebury. Walker made the dog house in memory of his dog, Apollo, and delivered it with the help of mentor Jere Urban and friend Forrest Tillotson. The first dog for the new house, which features a ramp on the back, was Dyson, currently available for adoption at the shelter. Pictured: Jere and Walker, with Forrest in the truck.

Vermont Watchdog From page 1

eying was passage of S.260, a bill introduced in the morning to replace S.230. Gov. Peter Shumlin had vetoed S.230 on Monday, claiming the bill’s restrictions on wind turbine noise amounted to a ban on wind energy development.

For those who supported S.230 over the past five months, last Thursday’s session was a violation of good government.

“S.230 already went through the entire legislative process,” House Minority leader don turner, r-Milton, told Vermont Watchdog.

“It’s a bipartisan bill that passed with a unanimous vote in the House. Then it was watered down in the Senate, (and) further watered down in the committee of conference — because the governor threatened to veto it then if we didn’t change it. ” On Thursday, turner and his republican caucus was successful on two occasions in blocking the three-fourths vote required to suspend the rules and take up S.260. turner vowed to take a firm stand to “override or let the veto stand,” but said he would not compromise on a new bill.

But late in the evening, the Senate voted to sustain Shumlin’s veto, and turner lost all leverage. House Speaker Shap Smith said democrats would stay extra days, if necessary, to pass S.260 with a simple majority. turner and the republicans lost again. lawmakers drafted S.230 at the start of this year’s session to give towns more say over where to locate renewable energy industrial plants. The effort was a reaction to the Public Service Board’s perceived rubber-stamping of such projects.

While democrats ultimately refused to give towns meaningful control, S.230 contained strict sound decibel standards for wind turbines, which many Vermonters hailed as progress.

But those standards topped Shumlin’s list of concerns when he vetoed the bill. turner, who has attempted to use the minority party to champion the concerns of Vermont-

The Vermont Eagle • June 18, 2016 | 15

ers, wrote in an op-ed that Shumlin’s concerns were inaccurate at best.

“Gov. Shumlin inaccurately asserts that the bill requires all wind projects to meet the ‘10 decibels above ambient’ standard,” he wrote. “S.230 clearly states that a one-size-fits-all standard is not required.”

Speaking to lawmakers on Thursday, aaron adler, a lawyer from the Office of legislative Council, said he didn’t believe that the decibel limit applied to all wind projects, but he acknowledged there was some disagreement. regarding Shumlin’s other objections to S.230, turner said they lacked a “rational basis” and were disputed by legislative counsel. annette Smith, director of Vermonters for a Clean Environment, said she was disappointed to be back at the Statehouse again.

“This is all unnecessary. It’s a waste of tax payer dollars,” she said. “They should have just overridden the veto and gone home. Instead we’re just being jerked around like we’ve been the whole session.” don Chioffi, a former selectboard member in rutland town, and the original author of the rutland resolution that attracted over 160 towns to join the “Vermont Energy rebellion,” also wasn’t happy with last Thursday’s session.

“That’s such a disingenuous, deceitful charade that they pull on the Vermont public. It’s just unbelievable,” Chioffi said.

“They are driving a knife right in the back of 161 towns, at least, in the state of Vermont. That is overwhelmingly a majority of the state, and they have absolutely no business whatsoever remaining in office.”
