Ripton man to appear in court
FERRISBURGH | On Nov. 25, at approximately 11:18 a.m., Vermont State Police troopers from the New Haven Barracks conducted a motor vehicle stop with a 1997 Saturn SL, operated by John Ryea, 34, of Ripton, on Route 7 in the own of Ferrisburgh. A subsequent police investigation revealed that Ryea’s privilege to operate a motor vehicle was criminally suspended in Vermont. Ryea was arrested and transported to the VSP New Haven Barracks for processing. Ryea was released on citation to appear at the Addison County Court on Jan. 8 to answer to the charge of Criminal DLS.
UPDATE
Further investigation revealed that Ryea had taken the vehicle he was operating without the owner’s consent and provided false information to a police officer. Ryea was subsequently charged with Operating without Owner’s consent and providing False Information to a Police Officer. ■

Wendy Wilton heads up U.S. FSA Vermont By Lou Varricchio STA FF W RITER
RUTLAND | Considering her academic achievements and background in finance, chemistry and agriculture, Wendy Wilton’s experience in state and local politics has helped prepared her for the less overtly political role of U.S. Farm Service Agency (FSA) head, despite being appointed by President Donald Trump. Wilton’s tenure as state senator left a mark in Montpelier, where she served on the education, judiciary and agriculture standing committees. When Wilton received official word last month from U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue that she was appointed director

of the FSA in Vermont, she was bowled over. “I was thrilled and so honored with the appointment by the President,” Wilton said. “I had expressed an interest in working in agriculture in the administration and I learned that the agency thought that, with my credentials in both agriculture and finances, I’d make a good fit. “But just let me say that there’s nothing political about this position other than my appointment,” she added. As Vermont’s new FSA state director, Wilton is helping implement U.S. Department of Agriculture policies in planning, organizing and administering FSA programs within Vermont. She also is responsible for running the day-to-day activities of the state FSA office in Williston.
“The FSA has many programs under its roof that help our farmers,” she said. “It’s also kind of like a SBA (Small Business Administration) for farmers making loan guarantees for farms. “It’s kind of like this: A business owner can go to a bank to get a loan, but the bank goes out to get the SBA guarantee to cover any default of the loan so that it can make the loan in the first place.” In addition to helping farmers with loans, the agency also provides funding for environmental sustainability, including things such as phosphorus runoff in lakes and streams. She’s also there to help with all sorts of technical assistance, valuable disaster relief and farm subsidies. » Wilton Cont. on pg. 5
Scott launches bold jobs-training plan Gov. talks 70x2025vt By Lou Varricchio STAFF WRITER
Gov. Phil Scott: “We owe it to Vermonters to provide the pathways necessary to develop the skills to be successful at work, at home, and in the community.” Photo by Lou Varricchio
MIDDLEBURY | Gov. Phil Scott’s administration and the Vermont Student Assistance Corporation have launched an ambitious plan to get Vermonters educated and trained for 21st century jobs by the year 2025. According to Scott, construction,
trades and allied-health occupations are the employment sectors looking for skilled Vermonters immediately. Scott’s education and workforce development program spearheaded by Vermont’s governor and VSAC, along with a group of leaders from the education and business community, has a goal of arming 70 percent of Vermont’s population with either trade or higher education credentials by 2025. “As part of my ‘cradle to career’ focus on education and training, we owe it to Vermonters to provide the
pathways necessary to develop the skills to be successful at work, at home and in the community,” Scott said at a 70x2025vt fall event at PC Construction in South Burlington. “(Our) 70x2025 is a big goal, but one I believe that we can reach by working together and using Vermont’s power of cooperation, collective wisdom and action. My administration is, and will be, fully engaged in this effort.” Scott has cited research from Georgetown University indicating that seven in 10 of the high-pay, high-demand
jobs in the decade of the 2020s will require some level of education and training after high school. According to Scott Giles, president and CEO of VSAC, Vermont must drastically upgrade the skills of the population to not only compete regionally and nationally, but globally as well. “A high school diploma just isn’t enough anymore,” Giles said. The 70x2025vt mission illustrates the daunting challenges needed in order to meet the 2025 deadline: » 70x2025 Cont. on pg. 5

Rutland R.R.: When rail was king Editor’s note: The following is the first part of a two-part history of the Rutland Railroad courtesy of the Rutland Railway Association and the Rutland Railroad Historical Society, along with other sources cited. RUTLAND | The Rutland Railroad was a railroad in the northeastern United States, located primarily in the state of Vermont but extending into the state of New York at both its northernmost and southernmost ends. After its closure in 1963 parts of the railroad were taken over by the State of Vermont and are now operated by the Vermont Railway. The earliest ancestor of the Rutland, the Rutland & Burlington Railroad, was chartered in 1843 by the state of Vermont to build between Rutland and Burlington. A number of other railroads were formed in the region, and by 1867 the Rutland & Burlington Railroad had changed its name to simply the Rutland Railroad. Between 1871 and 1896 the Rutland Railroad was leased to the Central Vermont, regaining its independence when that road entered receivership. The New York Central Railroad briefly had a controlling interest in the Rutland from 1904, but sold half of its shares to the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad in 1911. In 1901, the Rutland Railroad completed construction of a system of causeways and trestles across Lake Champlain, through the Champlain islands, to connect between Burlingtonand Rouses Point, N.Y. The purpose of this construction was to give the Rutland access to Canada independent of the tracks of the competing Central Vermont. At the final approach to Rouses Point, though, both companies did end up sharing the same bridge over the Richelieu River by using an unusual gauntlet track that allowed sharing without the need for switches. The causeway between Burlington and South Hero built at that time is today maintained as a recreation trail called the Island Line. The company also had a line from Rutland, southeast to Bellows Falls, in southeastern Vermont, opposite New Hampshire, and a line from Rutland south to North Bennington, thence to Chatham, N.Y.

Chatham was a major junction for connections via the New York Central to New York City and the Boston & Albany Railroad service to Massachusetts. The changes would have lengthened the runs, running from Burlington to Bellows Falls or Ogdensburg on one day, staying over and then running back the next day. Under current operating orders they would make the run from Rutland to Burlington or Bellows Falls and back in a day, or from Malone, New York running out and back to Ogdensburg and Burlington. The Rutland’s primary freight traffic was derived from dairy products and to many railroad fans, the Rutland R.R. is fondly remembered for the long trains of milk that used to move over the system. ■ To be continued

Shelburne ordinance overruled By Lou Varricchio STA FF W RITER
SHELBURNE | When it comes to controlling road-salt shipments via rail, along with purported threats to the local environment, Shelburne town officials lost their fight against Vermont Railway last week. The town spent $400,000 in taxpayer funds battling the railroad. A federal judge in Burlington ruled that
the town has no authority to either restrict rail shipments or prohibit salt storage by Vermont Railway. U.S. District Judge William Sessions ruled that a restrictive Shelburne ordinance, relating to swamp land that is part of the LaPlatte River watershed located near the storage site, unreasonably targeted the state-owned railroad. Vermont Railway employs 150 people and operates much of the former Rutland Railway system which went defunct in 1963. ■

The season’s shortest day Christmas time is the season when peace and joy shine through the shortest, darkest days of the year. And while we may casually notice that Dec. 21, 2017, on the kitchen calendar marks the shortest day here in the Northern Hemisphere, it’s easy to forget that we live on a large terrestrial-type planet orbiting the Sun at 30 kilometers per second or 18.5 miles per second. More than a few ancient human cultures celebrated this time as the day the Sun returned from its waning beginning instead a period of longer days. Here’s what howstuffworks.com science-writer Kathyrn Whitburne has to say about Dec. 21: 1. The day the Sun stood still: “Since the Sun doesn’t actually move, here is what’s actually happening: Earth doesn’t orbit upright, but is instead tilted on its axis by 23.5 degrees,” she explains. On the day of the winter solstice, the Northern Hemisphere of Earth is leaning far back, away from the sun. 2. “One man’s winter solstice is another man’s summer solstice,” Whitburne adds. “In the Southern Hemisphere, Dec. 21 is the longest day of the year, and the days begin to shorten and the nights lengthen afterward.” Down under, our northern winter solstice in summer solstice in the Southern Hemisphere. 3. The shortest day is a specific point in time: “Although most people will count all of Dec. 21

In fact, this week, the winter solstice occurs exactly at 11:28 a.m. EST Dec. 21. (Note: The date of the solstice is not always Dec. 21. It can also be the 20th or 22nd, and occasionally the 23rd.

Then, go outside and measure your shadow one month later, at noon, on Jan. 21. - The Eagle

The firm is employee-owned, with over 1,000 employeeowners working on jobs from Maine to Florida. “Like many Vermont employers, PC Construction is hiring for well-paying jobs and we are on the hunt to find the skilled workers to fi ll them,” said Jay Fayette, PC’s executive vice president and chief operating officer. “...For me, and PC Construction, joining in the 70x2025vt initiative is a no-brainer to make sure that Vermont is developing a talent pool that can meet the demands of our state and global economy.” Another 70x2025vt partner is the city of St. Albans.

The structure gives farmers a voice regarding the issues taking place in their local areas. Wilton’s job isn’t strictly deskbound. While she works primarily in the FSA office in Williston, she also is fi nding herself on the road, in addition to commuting from Rutland for the interim. “My role is a lot like my Rutland City treasurer role,” she noted. “I am making sure all the pots on the stove are cooking right along. And since I am the agency’s overall manager, I am also the face and voice of the agency. That’s why I will be very busy out in the field meeting with our nine district offices as well as helping where I can.” Unlike other government agencies, the FSA brings together farmers and others from across the industry. Th is gives a uniquely human side to the work, according to Wilton. “Agencies like ours, where the majority

workers here in the agency are either farmers themselves or come from a farming background, (the people) are tied very closely to agriculture and their hearts and souls are really in it,” she said. “That’s gratifying to me and that’s what makes what we do unique.” “With this position I have to pay attention to the Hatch Act (of 1939), so I can’t be politically involved. But that’s ok. There are other people who can take on the GOP mantle in Vermont,” she said. The Hatch Act prohibits employees of the executive branch — except the president, vice president and a few other officials — from engaging in certain types of political activity. According to USDA Secretary Perdue, FSA is tasked with farm conservation and regulation laws. “State directors help ensure that USDA is offering the best customer service to our farmers, ranchers, foresters, and agricultural producers across the country,” Perdue said when he announced Trump’s appointment of Wilton to head the agency’s Vermont office.■

Planned Parenthood and post-Christian Vermont Low energy prices have helped lead the United States to its 101st consecutive month of economic recovery, the third longest in history, By Guy Page • CAPITAL COLUMNIST • Vermont State Economist Tom Kavet on Nov. 30 told a one-day gathering of the Vermont Legislature. “The continuing recovery in home prices and recent strong equity market performance will bolster household wealth and along with continued low energy prices in 2018, should support robust consumer spending — which represents about 70% of the economy,” Kavet said in a report. The low energy prices to which Kavet refers are mostly due to “fracked” natural gas and oil. Not all legislators like the low cost of heating oil, natural gas, and gasoline. Some say Vermonters need a carbon tax nudge to get them to buy more renewable energy. For example..., Bradford Rep. Sarah Copeland-Hanzas backed the “Essex Plan” carbon tax... . The fee would be 3 cents on a gallon of propane, and 5 cents for diesel or home heating fuel to start, escalating to 24 cents, and 40 cents, respectively over the eight-year ramp-up. The fee would be assessed to wholesalers, who could choose to pass that cost directly on to the consumer.” The Essex Plan would rebate some carbon tax revenue to electricity ratepayers. Copeland-Hanzas hopes a carbon tax would help move Vermont closer to the goal of 90 percent total renewable energy by 2050. “We are kidding ourselves if we think that anything that we’re doing right now is moving us in that direction,” Ms. Copeland-Hanzas told the Valley News. She has a point (although probably not in the way she means it): the prorenewable Legislature has opposed carbon reduction in the past, and is poised to do it again. In 2010 the Vermont Senate voted against Vermont Yankee, Vermont’s largest-ever zero-emitting power plant. Now, some of the same senators who opposed zero-carbon Vermont Yankee are pushing to legalize energy-intensive marijuana cultivation. Growing five pounds of pot indoors requires the same amount of electricity needed to power 24 Vermont homes for a year. That’s why marijuana cultivation in greater Denver, Colorado accounts for more than half of all new demand for power. Colorado and Pacific Northwest states are struggling to meet emissions reduction goals due to the huge energy demand of legalized marijuana cultivation. Gov. Phil Scott opposes carbon taxation. His consumer and businessfriendly approach to emission reduction stresses energy conservation, reliance on economically-sound policies and technology, better management of electricity delivery, and affordable hydropower contracts. Some observers believe the renewable power industry is pushing hard for carbon tax revenue because it fears losing federal subsidies, which are scheduled to be phased out.

GMP’S $80 MILLION RATE INCREASE EXPLAINED
Green Mountain Power’s proposed 2018 5 percent rate increase will cost ratepayers $80 million, Vermontbiz. com said Nov. 27. GMP spokesperson Kristen Carlson blames the hike on increased transmission, regional
capacity and net metering costs. The following briefly explains these terms: · “Net metering” refers mostly to how Vermont subsidizes solar power at three to four times the cost of buying power on the open market. Thanks mostly to large-scale solar development (think acres of pasture, not rooftop), the load share of highcost solar has grown enough to adversely impact rates. Solar capacity totaled 107 MW in 2015 and has continued to grow since then. New state policies partially restricting the sale of renewable carbon credits out-of-state is expected to impact ratepayers. · “Regional capacity” refers to paying the dwindling number of New England power plants (mostly natural gasfired) to produce power on demand, as other plants (coal, oil, nuclear) retire from service. As New England’s share of intermittent renewable power grows, on-demand “backup” power becomes increasingly necessary and therefore valuable. · “Transmission” refers in part to the cost of building and maintaining the 9,000 miles of New England’s high-voltage transmission power lines. ISO-New England budgeted $2.1 billion for 2017, an all-time high. Vermont will pay about $43 million more in regional transmission costs in 2018, according to GMP rate filing documents.

POLL: BURLINGTON FIFTH-MOST “POST-CHRISTIAN” CITY IN U.S.
A July 2017 Barna Group poll has identified Burlington as the fifth-most “post-Christian” city in the United States. Barna said 53 percent of Burlington residents can be labeled as “post-Christian” because they meet nine of 16 criteria of Christian identity, faith and practice. Portland, Maine, Boston, Albany, and Providence are ranked 1–4 nationally. ■ - Statehouse Headliners is intended primarily to educate, not advocate. It is emailed to an ever-growing list of interested Vermonters, public officials and media.

Saward steps down as soccer coach The 2007 season was a magical one for the Panthers, capturing the program’s first NCAA Championship. Middlebury set a school record with 18 wins against just two losses and a pair of ties. Following the season, Saward was named both the New England and National Coach of the Year. In his final season this fall, he led the team to an NCAA bid after a run to the NESCAC title match as the tournament’s sixth seed. Saward’s teams have also captured two ECAC titles (1986, 1989) and three NESCAC Championships (2000, 2007, 2010). He earned New England Coach of the Year six times, NESCAC Coach of the Year twice and the National Coach of the Year in 2007. Saward completed his final season at the helm of the women’s squash program in 2005-06 after serving 21 years as the team’s head coach. In that time, his team won nearly 200 matches, coaching All-Americans Cathy Abrams ‘86, Vic Hoyt ‘90 (four-time) and Kelly Rivers ‘93. His squads captured three-straight Walker Cups from 2004-06, while winning again in 1995. ■
From College News Reports MIDDLEBURY | After announcing his intentions last January, Middlebury College men’s soccer coach David Saward will officially retire Dec. 31. Alex Elias, who has served as the team’s assistant coach for the past four seasons, will take over the program in January. “I have had a wonderful time working with all the students and my colleagues for the past 33 years,” said Saward. “This feels like the right time to hand the reigns over to a young man who I believe will take the program to new heights of success. Alex is a talented, astute coach who is highly motivated to move the program forward... .” Saward arrived at Middlebury in the summer of 1985, taking over the men’s soccer and women’s squash programs. He led the soccer squad to 28 postseason appearances in 33 years, including five-consecutive NCAA Tournament bids (1994-98) and 11 overall. He has more wins than any other coach in Middlebury soccer history with a career record of 359-126-59. Saward has coached 19 different All-Americans on the soccer field.

Graves named First Team All-American
From Castleton News Reports CASTLETON | Savanah Graves of the Castleton University women’s rugby team has been selected as a First Team All-American by the National Intercollegiate Rugby Association (NIRA) as released by the conference office last week. Graves will be one of 43 athletes selected on the first team. She is also one of just eight flankers to receive recognition across the nation, including those selected as honorable mentions. During the 2017 season, the Juneau, Alaska native led the Spartans defensively across a couple of categories. Tallying 78 tackles, she was more than 10 above her closest
teammate and recorded a 20 percent share of the team’s total. Offensively, Graves was second on the squad with four successful try attempts. The junior flanker notched the lone score for the team versus Norwich, while also notching a try at the University of New England, versus Long Island University Post and at Molloy College. Graves was also named women’s rugby most valuable player for the 2017 season during Castleton’s annual fall award gathering. ■ Savanah Graves of the Castleton University women’s rugby team has been selected as a First Team All-American by NIRA.

First big snow of the season By Lou Varricchio STAFF WRITER
MIDDLEBURY | Snow conditions at Vermont’s 17 ski resorts are generally just what you would expect in winter from December, according to Vermont.com. The website posts regular snowfall amounts for area ski resorts. By late Tuesday evening more than 4 inches of snow was reported at the Burlington International Airport. Some areas of central and southern Vermont saw a foot of snow, according to Vermont. com and the National Weather Service. In Ludlow, as a sampling, Okemo Report re-
corded nearly a foot of fresh powder last Tuesday afternoon. The Middlebury Snow Bowl, located at the summit of the Green Mountain range along Route 125 in Hancock, reported 12 inches of fresh snow on Thursday morning. “Man, I just love it,” said Mike Furness, 19, of Middlebury. Furness was snowshoing on a morning trek, along the snow-covered Trail Around Middlebury, between Middlebury Union Middle School and Denecker Chevrolet. “This is going to mean a white Christmas, too.” U.S. Route 7 through Addison and Rutland counties was salted and by Thursday morning most backroads were back to normal for local traffic. Most schools around the area got a late
start on Wednesday. Sunshine returned for the Thursday morning commute but with temperatures in the teens that was more like early January. Brent Curtis of the Agency of Transportation said some cars went of the road as drivers encountered slippery roads “We ask people not to drive in the winter with their minds in automatic pilot,” he told reporters during the storm. ■ This young girl, waiting for the school bus along Cottage Lane in Middlebury, took the morning delay to make herself a fresh snow cone Dec. 13. “I’d like to pour chocolate syrup all over my snow,” she said.
