SARANAC LAKE Ñ Matt FunicielloÕ s campaign appearances are half academic lecture, half old-fashioned stump speeches that harken back to the days of the citizen representative pontificating on makeshift podiums to rapt audiences.

The allusion is not overlooked by the candidate.

Speaking to a dozen voters at the Saranac Laboratory Museum on Thursday, the Green PartyÕ s candidate for Congress said the institution has strayed from the its roots, that of the populist body stacked with people like the countryside doctor and lawyer struggling over long distances to the nationÕ s capital to better their country.

But now, winning a Congressional seat is something the Glens Falls baker views CONTINUED ON PAGE 5

Canadian Pacific (CP), the railway company responsible for shipping crude oil through the region, held a training with four local emergency response teams on Wednesday, Sept. 24 in Port Henry.

The railway dispatched Hazardous Materials and Emergency Response Officer Mike Ball from South Dakota to facilitate the night training, which included a mock exercise with a DOT-111 tanker.

Ball said responders were given a crash course on how the cars function and foam application techniques. Ò We were instructed on the shut-offs and braking systems,Ó said Essex County Emergency Services Director Donald Jaquish. Ò WeÕ re actively training and working in conjunction with CP, emergency responders, fire departments and Hazmat.Ó Following the exercise, Brill and his colleague, Scott Croome, headed to Saratoga Springs for further trainings and a sit-down with DEC officials. Ò This training is absolutely critical,Ó said Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava.

Scozzafava said Port Henry Fire Chief Jim Hughes is also working with first responders across the lake to as part of an CONTINUED ON PAGE 5

Zombies invade TL in food pantry drive TUPPER LAKE Ñ On Saturday, Oct. 11, the streets of Tupper Lake will become undead as the first ever Zombie Walk converges on the town to collect food for the Tupper Lake Community Food Pantry.

The Tupper Lake Zombie Walk is a day-long event that will cater to the young and old. The fun gets underway at 3 p.m. as Park Street is transformed into an apocalyptic warzone.

Like something out of Ò The Walking Dead,Ó scores of zombies will trudge from business to business. But instead of collecting brains, they will collect non-perishable food items for the local food pantry.

“Zombies are really big now,” said town Youth Activities Director Mike Fritts. Ò This isnÕ t going to be anything too horrifying as we want as many kids as possible to participate. ItÕ s just planned as a fun, family day that explores and recreates a popular genre while donating to a worthy cause.Ó Anyone who wants to participate can come dressed as a zombie and converge on Park Street, collecting food from each business along the street and placing it a centralized location.

The street littered with zombies will surely be a sight to see, so those who want to watch are welcome - but be sure to keep a safe distance from the zombies! The activities on Park Street

will culminate with participants lining up and parading down the road.

At 4:30 p.m., the massive horde will converge onto the Municipal Park for nighttime festivities.

The Maze of the Undead will thrill and spook those innocent citizens brave enough to weave in and out of this elaborate setup trying to find the way to the exit before walkers find the way to their brains.

Live music will also be featured, with local band The Jones Boys and Nineball, a crowdpleasing band from Utica, entertaining the living and undead alike. In between acts, there will be contests with prizes including Best Zombie Costume, Best Zombie Growl and Best Zombie Walk.

Also at the park, a target range will be set up for any survivalists who want to prevent zombie attacks. Head there to practice with paintball guns and take aim at some zombie targets.

Those who would prefer to become a zombie can head over to one of the eventÕ s makeup artists, who will assist in turning living people into the undead.

To keep up your strength, vendors will be selling burgers, hot dogs and other food - just donÕ t feed the zombies!

All events and activities are free, however

organizers ask that attendees bring non-perishable food items, which will be donated to the local food pantry, to the festivities at the park.

For more information, contact Mike Fritts at 478-3579 or Scott Gravlin at 354-0463.

Woolf: “Stefanik has to take an explicit stand”

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — Despite several weeks of setbacks that steered the race to succeed Congressman Bill Owens further into a pickup for the Republicans, Aaron Woolf, the Democratic candidate, said he sees a clear road to victory. Ò There are days when the path to winning seems very certain,Ó he said on Sunday, Sept.

28. Ò And there are days when you feel like this is the biggest slog imaginable. Today is a day when I feel very confident.”

Woolf spoke to the Valley News from his home in Elizabethtown after a day of hiking, something he said helps to ground him after the rigors of what has become a bloody campaign. Ò Mountains have a way of imparting timelessness,Ó he said. Ò IÕ ve always found peace and perspective in them.Ó As the campaign entered the breakneck stretch following Labor Day, Woolf has been assailed by his Republican opponent, Elise Stefanik, across a variety of fronts, namely on the ethical issues swirling around Urban Rustic, the grocery store he co-owns in Brooklyn, and his family’s personal finances.

Last week, the House Majority PAC decided to yank $300,000 in planned ad buys, a decision that further deflated the Woolf campaign on a day when Stefanik was buoyed by the double play of the Independence PartyÕ s endorsement paired with a visit from House Speaker John Boehner, the most powerful elected Republican in the country.

Seizing the moment, Green Party candidate Matt Funiciello renewed calls for Woolf to drop out of the race, arguing he was the only candidate who could defeat Stefanik in November.

Woolf shrugged off the bad press and expressed mild surprise at how personal the race has become. Ò I originally imagined this was going to be a very clear laying out of he issues,Ó he said. Ò Maybe this says something of poll-tested modern politics.Ó The candidate said he strongly hoped that this fall, voters would judge the candidates on where they stand on the issues, not false narratives.

For him, those include Social Security and Medicare, minimum wage and what he referred to as Ò the sense of fairnessÓ embodied by legislation like the Buffett Rule, which Stefanik came out against last week, and closing the gender wage gap, a measure he said would help shore up Social Security. Ò She has to take an explicit stand on things,Ó said Woolf. Ò She canÕ t keep saying things like, Ô IÕ m open to having a conversation.Õ The voters aren’t going to find that satisfactory.”

Woolf has barnstormed across the district over the past two weeks, calling for Stefanik, of Willsboro, to support policies he says are eco-

nomically aligned with middle class voters in the district. Ò What weÕ re seeing is sense of people donÕ t want feel like theyÕ re being played,Ó he said. Ò I think people want to have an enduring connection with the people to represent them. Elise Stefanik has a very formulaic campaign representing the same old interests. I guess my faith is so unshakable that people will see through that.Ó The first-time candidate likened being in a room with excited voters to a battery recharge.

In the ramp-up to the three debates scheduled throughout October, Woolf said he looks forward to sustained direct contact with voters.

The North Country is inherently purple, he said, and the district is not a place that lends itself to ideologues. Ò ItÕ s easy for people on the extremes to generate interest and excitement with a kind of rabble-rousing approach,Ó he said. Ò But ultimately, this district will benefit most from a pragmatist working with all sides to get things done. and that will be evident as we move forward.Ó The candidate paused: Ò Even with a broken system, the mechanisms for fixing is intact.” Ò Before Manhattan multimillionaire Aaron Woolf was even registered to vote in the 21st District, Elise Stefanik was barnstorming across the District meeting hard working families, farmers, and small business owners,Ó said Stefanik campaign spokesperson Charlotte Guyett in an email response to WoolfÕ s comments. Ò Last week, Aaron Woolf was publicly forced to defend the very existence of his campaign, was forced to vow not to drop out of the race, and has proven ill prepared to serve in Congress. He wonÕ t release his tax returns, he wonÕ t release the details behind his millions of dollars in investments in Big Oil, Big Tobacco and other special interests he campaigns against, and he was sued by his own employees for not paying the wages he owed them. The only interests Aaron Woolf seems to care about are his own.Ó OWENS CHIMES IN Owens told the Valley News in a candid interview last week that he wasnÕ t concerned about the poll that showed Stefanik with a 13 point lead. Ò Both candidates not well-known and their stances arenÕ t well-known,Ó he said. Ò Over the past few weeks, Aaron has very clearly put forward where he stands. Now that needs to be repeated. If he moves in that direction, it will close the gap and make it a toss-up election like it was originally hypothesized to be.Ó Asked if the Woolf campaign had make mistakes, he deflected. Ò Every campaign makes mistakes, but the question is, Ô Do you learn from them and do you bounce back?Õ Ó Owens circled back to the issue of bipartisan-

Aaron Woolf, right, is running for the seat to replace outgoing Congressman Bill Owens, left, who has endorsed his campaign. ship. Ò Will she vote with her caucus all the time?Ó he said of Stefanik. Ò To be responsible, you have to vote in the best interests of your constituents. I donÕ t believe she will be able to vote with Democrats and I do not believe Ms. Stefanik will act in a bipartisan fashion.Ó Earlier this month, Stefanik released an accountability and transparency campaign. If elected, said Stefanik, she would post every vote on Facebook and to her Congressional website.

Owens said he didnÕ t know much about Funiciello, of Glens Falls, aside from the com-

ments he made earlier this month questioning the government’s official account of the Sept. 11 attacks.

A reporter relayed comments from a recent Funiciello campaign event in which the candidate said he respected the Congressman for being principled: Owens paused: Ò That was nice,Ó he said. Ò IÕ ve heard heÕ s very nice and hardworking, thatÕ s what people have told me.Ó Owens is slated to hold a telephone town hall with constituents on Wednesday, Oct. 1.

Lake Placid: Library hires new provisional director LAKE PLACID Ñ The Lake Placid Public Library Board of Trustees has named Bambi Pedu to be the institutionÕ s new, provisional director.

A native of Lake Placid, Mrs. Pedu says she has a fond attachment to the library beginning as a child. Ò I brought my daughter to story hour with Linda Blair here when she was little, and she is still in love with the library and the big stuffed bear.Ó After graduation from Lake Placid Central, Mrs. Pedu attended North Country Community College, graduating with an Associates in Business, and went on to complete her BA in Education with emphasis in English and writing at SUNY Potsdam. Her MA in Education, concentrating on curriculum development, reading and instructional technology was completed at SUNY Albany. Ò This is an amazing opportunity to serve the community,Ó she remarked, saying that she is looking forward to promoting more Ò community involvement with both kids and adultsÓ through new programs.

Pedu is married to Jason Pedu, owner of Lake Placid Industries. Their daughter, Reid, is a third grader at the public school who loves to read, says her mother.

She took up her new duties on Sept. 9, replacing the late Nancy Morelli, who had been the director of the 130 year-old-library for approximately five years.

Valley News Editorial

North Hudson has spoken T

he residents of North Hudson have spoken Ñ they voted resoundingly against throwing good money after bad and purchasing the white elephant once known as Frontier Town.

Now it is time for the Essex County Board of Supervisors to right a wrong and award the property to Keeseville businessman George Moore.

For the few people in the North Country who are not familiar with this case which has been in the news ad nauseam, George Moore was the winning bidder at an April 30 Essex County tax auction on a cluster of four parcels that once held the popular Frontier Town theme park in North Hudson.

Moore already owns the large A-frame structure at the entrance of the defunct park, for which taxes are fully paid, and his intent was to purchase the adjoining four parcels encompassing 88-acres for possible future development.

Instead, at the bequest of North Hudson Supervisor Ronald Moore, the county board voted on June 3 to sell the former theme park to the town of North Hudson for $60,000 Ñ $10,500 more than George MooreÕ s original bid.

Ronald Moore argued that the townÕ s developable land is limited and that the property Ñ once in town ownership Ñ could be used for recreational purposes like biking, snowmobiling and horseback riding or as an industrial park, thereby stimulating the ailing economy in the community.

As we said in an earlier editorial, we cannot fault Ronald MooreÕ s intent. Nevertheless, the process used to circumvent George Moore’s original bid was ethically and morally flawed.

The man bid $49,500 in good faith at a public auction, only to have his bid yanked out from under him by county supervisors who justified it, in part, by saying they had discussed not accepting a bid of less than $146,000 Ñ t he back taxes owed on the properties.

The problem is, they never mentioned that to George Moore or published a minimum bid in materials distributed at the auction.

To further rub salt in the wound North Hudson didnÕ t offer $146,000 either.

So George Moore increased his offer to $65,000 Ñ but supervisors still voted to sell the property to North Hudson by the vote of 11-6.

Afterward, residents of the community were given an opportunity to vote on the purchase and, to their credit, torpedoed the idea by a final tall of 80-52.

The county is now locked in litigation with George Moore over the property Ñ who contends supervisors acted illegally by denying him the property based on an unpublished minimum bid. He has said emphatically that he will drop the suit if supervisors award him his bid and thatÕ s exactly what needs to be done here.

Whether the county supervisors acted legally or not is simply not the issue. We understand that they reserve the right to reject any bid Ñ j ust as any landowner can.

But havenÕ t county taxpayers taken enough of a collective kick in the pants over this property? The last thing they deserve is to pick up court and legal fees on top of the $146,000 owed in back taxes.

And, what precisely is to be gained even if the county does win the suit? Will supervisors follow through on the sale to a community that doesnÕ t want it?

Or will it again sit in limbo until the next county tax auction while back taxes continue to accrue?

Given the condition of these parcels and their history under private ownership, we are skeptical that the county will ever recover the $146,000 in back taxes owed, so a minimum bid would be useless.

Finally, think about the precedent that is being set here. Denying George MooreÕ s offer would effect the integrity of all future tax auctions. County officials owe it to the taxpayers to obtain the highest price possible for foreclosed parcels and they owe it to bidders to conduct these auctions in a fair and transparent manner, otherwise, it will affect how people bid at future auctions.

The way this was handled Ñ including an hour-long executive session behind closed doors just prior to the vote to hand over the property to the town of North Hudson Ñ was anything but transparent.

George Moore has been criticized by some North Hudson residents for not developing the one Frontier Town parcel he already owns. In his defense, however, he needed these other four parcels in order to begin his vision for the property and the county failed to hold a tax auction for six long years Ñ n ot giving George an opportunity to make his purchase whole.

Supervisors Gerald Morrow, David Blades, Tom Scozzafava, Mike Marnell, Bill Grinnell and Dan Connell should be commended for voting against the sale.

It is time the remaining 11 supervisors cut their losses here, stop wasting valuable time and resources and sell the land to its rightful owner: George Moore. Ñ D enton Publications Editorial Board

Letters to the Editor

Update on water system To the Editor: The Town of Crown Point has been active in evaluating the water system, serving nearly 430 users. The Town hired an Engineering Firm, AES Northeast PLLC to evaluate the system in its entirety. One of the weakest links in the TownÕ s water distribution system is the water main serving the main street and core business district of Crown Point. The main serves the Crown Point Central School, senior center, fire district and many businesses. Referred to by locals as the Ò1890 MainÓ for the year it was installed, is severely corroded and tuberculated. This water main has been prone to multiple breaks and no longer has the capacity to efficiently convey water to businesses and residents. Boil water orders are issued routinely as a result of pressure loss, and results in lack of firefighting capability. Replacement of this water main is critical to main street activity.

Additionally, our community has two well sources, one located on Pearl Street, and the other at the fish hatchery. The Pearl Street well system was reconstructed in 2001 as a redundant backup to the construction of wells at the Hatchery site in order to meet

Oil

From page 1 emergency evacuation plan.

He said while CP is going above and beyond to ensure safety, including millions spent on track repairs, he called for a reduction of car lengths. Doing so, he said, would allow trains to slow down as they pass through intersections. Ò Time is everything in the rail business,Ó said Scozzafava. Ò The bottom line is oil has to get wherever itÕ s going and that wonÕ t change in the future.Ó CPÕ s presence has become increasingly visible in Essex County since March when company officials were met with withering attacks at a special Board of Supervisors meeting called to address the increase in rail traffic.

GAO REPORT A report released last week by the Government Accountability Office determined that current federal proposals to upgrade safety requirements for oil transport by rail and pipeline need to be stepped up to prevent future incidents.

The federal government, concluded the report, has not kept pace with the skyrocketing industry.

Driven by new hydrofracking technology, US refinery receipts of domestic crude by rail increased more than sevenfold from 2008 to 2012, from four to 30 million barrels annually. Each tanker carries 30,000 gallons. With an average length between 80 and 120 cars, thatÕ s 2.4 million to 3.6 million gallons per train passing through Champlain Valley communities.

While tankers of crude transported by rail increased 24 times between 2008 and 2012, new railway infrastructure has not been added to accommodate the influx.

Rails, barges, processing facilities and storage facilities also face limitations, while specific concerns have been raised about the testing and packaging of crude oil, namely when it comes to the safety of the controversial DOT-111 tankers and emergency response preparedness.

New York receives 22 percent of the nationÕ s carloads on their way downstate refineries, a number that is projected to increase as oil and natural gas production continues to outpace the capacity through existing pipeline infrastructure, hence the bump in land transport.

At the root of the debate is the DOT-111 tanker cars, an older model that experts say are more prone to rupture in the event of an incident than newer models.

The Department of Transportation is taking public comment until Sept. 30 on its proposed new rules governing their use. According to the Center for Biological Diversity, more than 18,000 comments asking immediate ban have already been submitted.

The GAO report also emphasized safety improvements must

Funiciello

From page 1 as akin to winning the lottery. ItÕ s a lifetime of health insurance, a fat pension and a revolving door that spits politicians back into the corporate lobbying world. Ò WeÕ re still married to the idea that one of two parties is the lesser evil,Ó he said. Ò WeÕ re going to change the conversation.Ó Over the course of 90 minutes, the candidate cycled through his platform Ñ ending corporate welfare, bumping up the minimum wage to $15, empowering regional agriculture and food systems Ñ through a Socratic back and forth with his audience.

Funiciello, who is running to fill the seat being vacated by outgoing Congressman Bill Owens, said despite his massive political disagreements with the incumbent, including the Affordable Care Act, he respected the Plattsburgh-based Democrat for being principled.

He referred to the ACA as an insurance company bailout and said it was constructed on faulty logic.

Take auto insurance, for example. Ò Is it cheaper because itÕ s mandatory?Ó he asked.

Heads nodded in agreement. Ò ItÕ s not,Ó he said. Ò My son drives a 20-year-old pickup and pays thousands in insurance per year.Ó The room took on a roundtable discussion as the candidate relayed a discussion with a hospital staffer who drifted into the billing department after going to school for nursing.

A discussion with Hudson Headwaters CEO John Rugge, said Funiciello, revealed that the health care network worked with 1,008 different billing companies.

Three staffers in the billing department for each medical professional.

What would happen with single-payer health care?Ó asked Funiciello. Ò No more billing,Ó said Jason Brill, a local resident.

The room nodded again.

Healthcare, said Funiciello, is a centerpiece of his campaign.

state codes and standards. As noted in our Annual Water Quality Report from sampling conducted as early as 2010, the test results have identified contamination of the Pearl Street well system, violating NYS Health codes and standards, which has resulted in discontinued use of this source to protect public health. Unfortunately, the unusable pearl Street well system has left our water system without adequate redundant service, a NYS Department of Health violation.

The Crown Point water treatment plant is another area of concern that the engineers addressed. The plant has been documented with deficiencies that are detrimental to the performance of the plant. These deficiencies include the control system, equipment, testing laboratory and chemical feed pumps. Other upgrades are required to meet basic building codes and standards.

The Town Board understands the need for an adequate water system serving residential and commercial areas and has been very active in obtaining accurate engineering costs for these updates. The Engineer has investigated the system and has developed a Capital Improvement Plan to acknowledge the above issues. The Town Board is also actively seeking grant funding in order to implement the needs of the community, and to lower the project costs. One of the most important components of qualify-

ing for grant programs are the income levels of households in the water components of qualifying for grant programs are the income levels of households in the water district. The income of the residents and businesses is required for multiple grant funding programs. There will be two separate survey components. One targeting Community Development Block Grant funding and the other targeting USDA Rural Development funding. It is important that everyone answer the required questions and comply with the timeline of the questionnaires. The Town Board will not be reviewing or receiving the completed surveys. Returned surveys will be opened and results tabulated by the Essex County IDA staff ensuring the information will remain confidential.

There will be a Public Hearing with the NYS Department of Health, AES Northeast PLLC, Essex County Community Resources, and Essex County IDA in attendance to discuss the Capital Improvement Plan and answer any questions or points of clarification poised by concerned citizens. This Public Hearing will be at the School Auditorium on Oct. 15 at 6:30 p.m.

include testing the makeup of the oil, which the DOT has said is particularly flammable.

Since crudeÕ s variable composition contains dissolved natural gas, flammable gases often build up in the tanks during transport. This makes fires more likely in the event of an accident, the rates of which have also risen this past decade, from eight in 2008 to 119 in 2013.

While the majority were negligible, incidents in Alabama and North Dakota resulted in large spills and extensive clean-up efforts.

MID-ATLANTIC REGIONAL WATER CONFERENCE On Sept. 25, the Adirondack CouncilÕ s John Sheehan addressed a gathering of water quality advocates and professionals at the Mid-Atlantic Regional Water Conference in Shepherdstown, West Virginia.

Sheehan reported rigorous discussion with government officials and conservationists, including the root cause of why trains are running through the North Country in the first place, namely due to a lack of pipeline infrastructure.

In addition, last yearÕ s Lac-MŽ gantic incident crippled pre-existing infrastructure and forced tankers to use alternative routes.

The Adirondack Council, said Sheehan, is calling for an immediate ban on the DOT-111s and a closer examination of tracks statewide with an emphasis on those that pass through environmentally-sensitive areas.

Sheehan said the Adirondack Council is also concerned about a potential increase in traffic from Canada’s tar sands region.

Buckeye Partners has just completed a new terminal in Perth Amboy, New Jersey. The state has granted the Houston-based a permit to handle billion gallons of the heavy crude annually.

The current volume is about 400,000 million, which means the terminal could more than double its production schedule without any input from the state.

Sheehan also expressed concern over the proposed expansion of the Global Partners facility in Albany to add a heating facility.

This would lead to a tripling of oil passing through pretty much overnight if that project gets approved.

He said the DEC erred in greenlighting the project. Ò ThereÕ s no trigger for the state to slow down expansion if they intend to do it,Ó said Sheehan. Ò It only takes one accident for a real catastrophe.Ó

Tankers of crude oil transported by rail increased 24 times between 2008 and 2012. State, local and federal officials are all scrambling to step up regulatory efforts and emergency response plans in the event of an incident.

STATE INSPECTIONS In January, Governor Cuomo issued an Executive Order directing five state agencies to undertake a comprehensive review of safety procedures and emergency response.

On Sept. 24, inspection teams from the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) and the Federal Railroad

Administration (FRA) carried out the latest round of track and crude oil tanker inspections at facilities in Buffalo and the CPowned Kenwood Rail Yard in Albany, two of the main rail hubs for crude oil transport in the state.

According to a report issued by Cuomo’s office last week, inspectors found a split rail on the mainline from Buffalo to Syracuse, a critical defect. Speed has been reduced to 30 miles per hour pending the railÕ s replacement. The inspectors also found 38 non-critical defects, including muddy ballast and loose bolts, which must be repaired within 30 days.

In Albany, inspectors examined 202 DOT-111 units and found 12 non-critical defects, including seven worn brake shoes, four defective wheels and one missing knuckle pin.

In Buffalo, 10 non-critical defects, including two worn brake shoes, a missing knuckle pin, three deflector shields with loose bolts and four damaged coupler tabs, were discovered.

The FRA inspected 145 DOT-111 crude oil tank cars for hazardous materials defects and found 11 non-critical defects, including 10 loose or missing placards and debris on one tank car platform.

Non-critical tank car defects must be fixed before the train departs the yard. If that is not possible, the affected car will be pulled from the train to await repair.

Public money already constitutes 60 cents of each dollar spent on health care, he said. But itÕ s gobbled up by insurance companies. Ò DonÕ t we deserve health care weÕ ve already paid for?Ó he asked. Ò This is common sense, not liberal or conservative.Ó Single-payer health care works everywhere else in the industrial world, he said. But citizens are being told it doesnÕ t. Ò The back-and-forth between the chattering class is fake theater.Ó Funiciello’s girlfriend, an artist, painted an American flag with a green dot at its center, the candidate recalled.

After a while, it was the only thing you noticed.

In Congress, he would be the green dot. Ò So we elect you?Ó Brill thundered. Ò Where do we begin?Ó Ò If weÕ re brave enough to do this, are we going to get pork?Ó Funiciello said. Ò No. But we are going to inspire other people around the country.Ó Saranac Lake resident Dave Ryan asked Funiciello about solar energy and nuclear fusion.

The former, he said, would be make more effective by developing a storage panel to achieve maximum efficiency, while he called for a experimental project for the latter to test its feasibility as a possible replacement for hydrofracking. Ò I would love to see all the candidates bring up the same thing at the debates,Ó he said. Ò I would love to read more about it,Ó said Funiciello. Ò Your positions are very logical, economically and on a humanitarian level,Ó said Peter Wilson, of Saranac Lake. Ò What are you going to do about the terrible stuff happening in the world today?Ó Ò LetÕ s stop the American exceptionalism for a minute,Ó said Funiciello.

While ISIS’ actions were “horrific,” Funiciello called last weekÕ s resolution by Congress to authorize the use of military force to bomb Syria and arm rebels Ò unconstitutional and illegal.Ó The only reason the American military is in the Middle East, he said, was to protect their own oil resources.

Ò One third of the worldÕ s oil is under Iraqi sands.Ó He said citizens of those countries would be better served if American forces pulled out. Ò We need to be compassionate,Ó he said. Ò The best possible thing I can do for them is to get the military out and solve our energy problems. We donÕ t need to be the empire anymore.Ó Brill said he was more concerned about escalating police militarization.

Funiciello cited an anecdote of what he referred to as the Williams Street Standoff in Glens Falls.

A man lit a bag of charcoal on fire, threw it over his neighborÕ s fence and passed out drunk on his couch.

The response, said Funiciello, was excessive: Thirty SWAT-style officers, one Humvee and a drone that may or may not have been armed.

“I couldn’t figure out which forces were which,” he said. Ò CanÕ t we just give Barney back his bullet?Ó Funiciello renewed calls for Aaron Woolf, his Democratic opponent, to drop out of the race, citing the House Majority PACÕ s decision earlier this week to cancel its entire television advertising reservation in the district, roughly $300,000. Ò HeÕ s going to get beaten severely,Ó said Funiciello. Ò ItÕ s untenable and illogical for him to stay in the race.Ó Ò Enough!Ó thundered Brill . Ò I agree with most of what you said. ItÕ s a daunting, daunting task. Now letÕ s get 20 more of you elected.Ó “Well, you have to elect me first,” said Funiciello.

His resurgent campaign has spent $20,000 to date. Woolf, in contrast, has spent $400,000 of his own money, said Funiciello.

The candidate admitted that if he pulled 3-4 percent of the vote in the recent Siena/WWNY-7 News Poll, he would have hung it up. Ò I might have decided to spend the time watching movies and eating food with my girlfriend.Ó But he polled at 10 percent.

Funiciello said he was looking forward the three televised debates that are scheduled for October. Ò At every debate, weÕ re going to see a big bump.Ó

Trash talk gets heated at county as lawmakers move forward in contract

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — Lawmakers returned from a brief recess on Monday, Sept. 29 with patriotism in their hearts as they commemorated the 200th birthday of the Ò Star Spangled BannerÓ prior to convening their meeting.

Essex County Board of Supervisors Vice Chair Bill Ferebee gave his colleagues a refresher course on the national anthem, describing the aftermath of the Battle of Port McHenry as witnessed by Francis Scott Key: Ò The scene was as though Mother Nature opened up and vomited fire and brimstone,” Ferebee recalled.

Rooftop workers paused as Susan Richards, secretary to Board Chairman Randy Douglas, sung the song.

All 18 lawmakers Ñ including Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava, who was wearing a purple Ticonderoga football jersey — blinked in the sunlight before shuffling back inside. Ò Now itÕ s time to do payroll,Ó said Richards.

TRASH Back inside, lawmakers sparred over a resolution to continue to utilize Serkil LLC to handle the countyÕ s trash for an additional five years.

Some towns wanted to leave the system, others wanted to stick together.

Earlier this summer, the county passed an emergency threemonth extension.

Ticonderoga Supervisor Bill Grinnell said his town could probably cut costs by sending their recyclables elsewhere. Ò WeÕ re about 20 years behind in Essex County,Ó he said at the meeting in June that launched the negotiations. Ò To stay up to date, we need to stop paying people to handle our waste.Ó North Elba and Schroon previously opted out and their recyclable stations now act as revenue generators for their towns.

And Crown Point had never opted in to begin with.

Only one other bid for the contract was submitted, from Casella.

Rates with Serkil would be bumped up to $15 per ton, up from $10. Administration costs were set at $46,650 per month for management and administration of the country-run transfer station in Lewis, up roughly 10 percent.

Essex County receives

$294,000 from the state as a subsidy to haul refuse outside county lines.

County Manager Dan Palmer said while the payment is scheduled to expire by 2018, a $5 per ton tipping fee could make up the difference. Ò Once a contract in place, [Douglas] and I will take the argument back to the state to continue those funds,Ó said Palmer.

The discussion devolved into rabble as to what would happen if each individual town went their own way. Ò The whole program is going to implode if towns start leaving,Ó said County Attorney Daniel Manning.

Scozzafava said Moriah handles the second-highest tonnage in the county after North Elba. Ò YouÕ re creating a huge problem once you start pulling out of the system,Ó he said.

Douglas expressed rising costs for Jay if he had to use other transfer sites. Ò It is getting crazy. It all needs to be ironed out before moving forward,Ó he said. Ò We can establish any rules we want,Ó said Palmer. Ò The only trick is getting you guys to agree.Ó Manning has until Dec. 31 to have a new contract in place with Serkil.

The resolution passed 17-1, with SchroonÕ s Mike Marnell the lone dissenting voice.

The full board will vote on Monday, Oct. 6.

Red Storm’s defense shuts out Sentinels to stay undefeated Saranac Lake wins 7-0 in low-scoring showdown

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA Ñ It was old school football despite the new school offenses.

Neither Saranac Lake nor Ticonderoga were able to manage more than 155 yards of total offense, but the Red Storm was the beneficiary of the longest play of the game, a 39-yard strike from Tristin Fitzgerald to Ty Marmion in the third quarter to give the team a 7-0 win over the Sentinels on Sept. 26. Ò We had a compliment off one of our screen plays and the corner bit,Ó Saranac Lake Coach Eric Bennett said. Ò It was a well executed play for us.Ó Fitzgerald finished 15-for-23 for 115 yards and the lone touchdown of the game, connecting with Marmion four times for 55 yards. Torin Smith caught four passes for 14 yards, while Alex Donaldson had three receptions for 28 yards, Jack Martin two for 14 yards and Dylan Kilner one for -4 yards.

Kilner was also held in check from the backfield, running 17 times for 42 yards. No other back had more than four yards rushing. Ò We had trouble running the ball this week, and that is a credit to Ti,Ó Bennett said. Ò We have to work on that because we play Moriah next week and they are a good run defense.Ó Defensively, Donaldson was in the middle of two key plays, sack-

ing Sentinel quarterback Garrison Hughes once on a fourth down play and again on a second-and-four in two consecutive series in the fourth quarter. Ò I was looking for the quarterback the whole game and I finally got my shot,Ó Donaldson said. Ò The pace stayed the same for us the entire game, but that was very nerveracking.Ó Ò We expect that all of our kids will be able to make plays when needed,Ó Bennett said. Ò If the play comes to them, then it is theirs to make.Ó Nicholas Sweeney added a sack defensively for the Red Storm, while Hunter Moon and Ryan Killian each had a tackle for loss and Marmion had an interception.

MarmionÕ s interception gave the Red Storm a second scoring chance in the game, driving to the one yard line on a fourth and goal. Fitzgerald gave the ball to Kilner, who was stopped for a loss by TiconderogaÕ s Kolby Bradford.

Kaleb Wiktorko led the defensive charge for the Sentinels on the evening with three and a half tackles for loss, a tip that almost turned into an interception and a forced fumble which was recovered by Konner Bruce (one tackle for a loss). Ò The defense was doing what it was supposed to do,Ó Wiktorko said. Ò Coach had us well prepared and everyone is working hard and ready to go each day.Ó Ò We were fantastic again on defense,Ó Sentinel Coach Scott Nephew said. Ò We prepared for the formations Saranac Lake was going to show us.Ó Ryan Trudeau had three tackles for loss including a sack, while Domanic Banish and Chase Dixon each had two tackles for loss.

and Ezra Long also added tackles in the backfield, while Devin Alkinburgh had a forced fumble.

The game marked another strong defensive performance against a non-Class D opponent after holding the high-powered Peru offense to 20 points two weeks earlier. Ò Keeping those two teams down offensively was a good accomplishment for us,Ó Wiktorko said. Ò We were able to perform well in both

games.Ó Offensively, the Sentinels were one yard behind the Red Storm with 153 yards. Hughes finished the game 5-for-18 for 42 yards and one interception while running the ball 12 times for 19 yards.

Trudeau caught a pair of passes for nine yards while running the ball 12 times for 41 yards. Bruce added 15 carries for 49 yards, while Rocque carried three times for two yards.

Banish had two receptions for 13 yards and Samuel DuShane had the longest reception of the night with a 20-yard grab.

Nephew said the key to continued success will be working on the mental game. Ò We need to stop committing so many penalties,Ó he said. Ò You have to give the Saranac Lake team a lot of credit tonight, but we did not help ourselves.Ó

Late fumble recovery seals road win for Patriots over Hornets 21-14 win gives AuSable Valley its first victory of the season

By Kyle Oehlbeck

denpub@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ The AuSable Valley Patriots (1-3) won their first game of the season 21-14 against the Plattsburgh High Hornets (0-4) on a very hot Saturday, Sept. 27, afternoon contest. Ò It was a long time coming,Ó said Patriots Coach Heith Ford. Ò The guys never gave up from start to finish.”

Both teams played extremely hard throughout the game despite the temperature getting up to 88 degrees.

The Patriots were led by quarterback William Coats, who finished the day going 11-16 with 123 passing yards and one touchdown as well as 31 rushing yards and two touchdowns on the ground. Ò We had a well balanced attack,Ó added Ford. Ò Once we established the running game the passing game opened up for us.Ó After a scoreless first quarter, the first points of the game came with 9:37 left in the second quarter Garrison Hughes scrambles with the ball in the Sentinels’ loss to the Red Storm. Hughes threw when Coats rolled out of the pocket and found wide for 42 yards and an interception. receiver Tyler Champine for an 11-yard reception in Photo by Nancy Frasier the back corner of the end zone.

PlattsburghÕ s ensuing possession resulted in a turnover when running back Quran Carroll had the ball jarred lose by a Patriots defender. The Patriot offense then drove the ball down to the HornetsÕ 2-yard line and Coats muscled his way into the end zone for his first rushing touchdown and a 14-0 lead with 2:04 left in the half.

Late in the third quarter a botched snap by the Patriots was quickly pounced on by the Hornets defense, recovering the ball on the PatriotsÕ own 40yard line and changing the momentum of the game.

The next play of the game D’Andre Lemieux (7-17 for 54 yards, 54 rushing yards and one touchdown) took a quarterback sneak 40 yards for the HornetsÕ first touchdown of the day.

The Patriots responded by charging down to the Hornets’ 2-yard line and on the first play of the fourth quarter Coats punched in another score on a quarterback sneak. The HornetsÕ next possession ended in an 11-yard touchdown run by running back Logan Harvey, who had 58 yards on 13 carries on the day.

After an interception by Quran Carroll with 3:46 left in the fourth quarter the Hornets had the momentum and were posed to score and tie the game up.

Plattsburgh moved the ball down to the PatriotsÕ 11-yard line and were set to score until linebacker Cody Furnia recovered a bobbled snap with 38 seconds left in the game to seal the win for the Patriots.

Warm weather, hot offense wear down Moriah against Peru 49-13 win moves Peru to 4-0, tied with Saranac Lake atop Section VII

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com PERU Ñ It was weather more fit for training camp than the last weekend of September, and the Moriah Vikings felt it.

Temperatures in the low 80Õ s and players already feeling ill did not help the Vikings in their 49-13 loss to the Peru Indians Sept. 27. What also did not help was the 419 passing yards and 110 rushing yards by Brandon Sawyer. Ò We had three players that were ill coming into the game and it really put our numbers down,Ó Vikings Coach Don Tesar said. Ò We had no subs, and we had some big plays called back because players were in positions they were not used to.Ó Ò We had to deal with the heat today and it was nice we were able to have some depth,Ó Peru Coach Nick Damiani said.

Indian quarterback Blake Altizer finished the day 17-of-27 passing for 331 yards and four touchdown passes. Altizer’s first scoring strike went to Anthony Gallo for 44 yards.

Gallo finished with five receptions for 159 yards along with a 54yard punt return on special teams and an interception defensively.

Altizer later hit Rivelino Hen-

dricks (4-43) for a 23-yard strike, followed by scoring throws to Troy Lawyer (6-83) for 55 yards and Cameron Rock (2-36) for 24 yards.

Rock, who relieved Altizer in the fourth quarter, added 88 yards pass-

ing on one throw, a touchdown pass to Ryan Lovely, his only reception of the game. Rock also had 10 yards rushing.

On the ground, Sawyer scored on a pair of his 13 carries, once from 45

yards out on the opening score of the game and the second from 28 yards out. Dakota Arquette added eight yards rushing and Evan Palmer two.

Cole Ives had a pair of tackles for

loss which included a sack, while Mike Hayes, Riley Sartwell also had tackles for loss. Hayes added a tipped pass, while Luke Carpenter had an interception and Caeden Favreau recovered a fumble. Ò Every week we are trying to improve and get better,Ó Damiani said. Ò We have done a decent job progressing. Our offensive line is more confident in their assignments. We add a little bit and tweak as guys are more confident with their roles.”

For the Vikings, Adam Jaquish went 8-for-21 for 180 yards, throwing one touchdown and a pair of interceptions. Jaquish had three passes called back on illegal motion penalties, totaling 70 yards of lost opportunities.

Taylor Slattery led the Vikings with five receptions for 136 yards and a score, while Jarrod MacDougall had three receptions for 44 yards.

On the ground, Troy Welch ran the ball 17 times for 63 yards, while Kyle Stockwell averaged over 10 yards per carry with three runs for 47 yards and a score. Cody Stockwell added 13 yards on four carries, while Ryan Boucher had four yards and Brandon Hammond one. Ò We had some positive yards and we made strides in our blocking,Ó Tesar said.

Bill Larrow, Caleb Yelle and Hayden Fernandez had tackles for loss defensively for the Vikings, while Fernandez added a tip and Joe Rodriguez recovered a fumble.

SARANAC Ñ Justin StevensÕ rushing tear through Section VII continued on Sept. 27 as the Beekmantown Eagles shut out the Saranac Chiefs 53-0.

Stevens ran for 248 yards, his third consecutive game eclipsing the 200 yard mark, and two touchdowns in the win. He added 91 yards and a touchdown receiving.

The Eagles kept their foot on the throttle through the entire game, scoring double digit points in each quarter on their way to the win and 3-1 mark in Section VII. Mickey PepperÕ s 38-yard pass to Stevens opened up the scoring in the first quarter followed by a Zachary Bingel field goal. Pepper was 7-12 for 95 yards and a touchdown.

In the second, Tyler Newman found the endzone two times. He ran the ball three times

for 26 yards. Stevens took over in the third with two touchdown runs, the second good for 68 yards.

In the fourth, Dylan PeryeaÕ s pick-six and Nathan HandyÕ s 42-yard touchdown run capped off BeekmantownÕ s big day.

The Chiefs (0-4) were not without success moving the ball. Mason Martin ran for 94 yards on 12 carries while Hunter Church chipped in 24 yards on the ground.

Caiden Goodman connected on six of his 17 attempts, throwing for 59 yards in the game, but a pair of interceptions played into keeping Saranac out of the endzone.

In the end, BeekmantownÕ s ground attack was too much to handle.

The Eagles will face a tough running defense on Oct. 4 when Ticonderoga, who held a high-scoring Saranac Lake team to seven points on Sept. 26, comes to Beekmantown.

AuSable Valley, coming off their first win of the season over Plattsburgh, will host the Chiefs on Oct. 3 when Saranac will try for its first win.

Good Times in Small Towns

I

Õ ve recently returned from a long weekend, spent in the hamlet of Indian Lake. I had traveled to the central Adirondack community to participate in the annual Great Adirondack Moose Festival.

Although IÕ ve attended the Moose Fest several times, this year the crowds had definitely grown. It appears a good deal of the traffic involved groups of motorcycle enthusiasts primarily who were cruising the region to enjoy the fine weather and fantastic foliage.

Every year, the small community of Indian Lake opens it arms for the public event which features a host of activities, music, contests and sales.

This year, the Great Adirondack Moose Calling Contest drew a record crowd that packed the local theater to listen as contestants offered up their best moose call.

I helped out with the Great Adirondack Flyfishing Championship held on nearby Lake Adirondack, where near a dozen contestants showed their skills with the long rod.

The top casters were Steve Nissen from Niskayuna in first place, Chris Keefer from Fairport in second and Chris, and Trevor Madsen from Spencertown in third.

This year’s inaugural flyfishing event was cosponsored by Cortland Line Company and Blueline Sport Shop in Saranac Lake.

Cortland Line generously donated several spools of 555 Floating Flylines which were awarded as prizes, while Blueline Sportshop provided two Redington Flyrod outfits that were used in the competition.

Blueline Sport Shop in Saranac Lake is one of the oldest, continually operating purveyors of sporting goods in the entire Park, and they were recently awarded the regional Orvis franchise, which had previously been operated by Jones Outfitters in Lake Placid. Sadly, Jones Outfitters closed its doors for good in December of 2013.

Prior to the demise, Jones Outfitters, which had been established in 1949, was widely recognized as the oldest, continually operating Orvis Dealer in the country. While it was certainly sad to see them go, I do believe the Orvis brand will be in good hands at The Blueline, especially considering their quality service and the sporting expertise that is available from the capable staff.

The Great Adirondack Moose Festival really drew a crowd this year and I expect it will continue to grow.

For many years, Indian LakeÕ s economy has been driven by the white water rafting business, which brings in an influx of visitors seeking adventure on the mighty Hudson River Gorge.

Hopefully, the rafting crowds will learn about the recently

points, three aces, three kills and 14 digs.

Lake Placid, which got as close as 25-19 in a competitive third set, got seven points, three aces and five digs from Georgia O’Leary. Kiana Fell chipped in two points, one ace, four kills and seven assists.

Plattsburgh 3, Saranac Lake 0 PLATTSBURGH Ñ Kyleigh Melhorn and Mackenzie Fleming each scored 13 points as the Hornets swept the Red Storm 3-0 on Sept. 29.

Boys Lake Placid 23, Peru 33 Lake Placid 15, Northeastern Clinton 47 Peru 21, Saranac Lake 36 Peru 16, Northeastern Clinton 44 Saranac Lake 23, Northeastern Clinton 32 Girls Peru 15, Northeastern Clinton 50 Peru 29, Lake Placid 30 Peru 22, Saranac Lake 35 Lake Placid 15, Northeastern Clinton 46 Saranac Lake 15, Northeastern Clinton 50 LAKE PLACID Ñ In boysÕ cross country on Sept. 23, the Lake Placid tallied two wins, Peru went 2-1 and Saranac Lake had a win and a loss.

The Blue Bombers’ Karl Shultz (17:40) and Scott Shultz (18:27) took first and second place.

Peru’s Isaiah Maddix finished third with a time of 18:46.

Saranac Lake’s Zane Pelletieri (18:54) finished sixth and Gavin Racine (20:43) took home 13th.

The Peru girls, despite not cracking the top three, went 3-0 on the day in points. Lake Placid and Saranac Lake both went 1-1 and Northeastern Clinton 0-2.

Lake Placid’s Nina Armstrong (20:48) and Gabby Armstrong (21:49) finished first and third.

Johanna Mohrs (21:02) took second for Saranac Lake. Meghan Mazzella paced Peru with a fourth place 22:55.

River Plains offers numerous special access campsites which incorporate stone dust trails, accessible privies, picnic tables, fireplaces and tent pads, fishing platforms, and canoe launches.

There have been many improvements made to the area since I last traveled through that country over a decade ago.

Efforts have been made to provide universal access to the ponds, campsites and other remote areas of the Moose River Plains Wild Forest.

Although I havenÕ t traveled through the Plains region much in recent years, I understand that many of the once fabled brook trout waters have returned to pre-1970Õ s conditions, and brook trout are again swimming free and wild in many lakes and ponds that were once severely impacted by acid rain.

Judging by the lack of traffic encountered during my four hour trip through the Plains over the weekend; the area appears desolate and underutilized.

I expect the area will see a fair share of traffic when the annual Big Game season opens soon, but the campsites are spaced far enough apart that campers can easily find the necessary solitude if they take some time to look around.

In recent years, New York state has made great strides in improving accessibility at campgrounds, educational centers and other facilities offer many recreational opportunities for people with disabilities, including camping, picnicking, fishing and nature viewing.

opened Chain Lakes Primitive Area, and decide to return to enjoy a host of other outdoor adventures that can be found in Hamiliton CountyÕ s one million acres of wild lands.

I always take the time to point out Hamiliton CountyÕ s tourism tag line: One million acres, No stop lights. It truly illustrates the immense nature of the local woodlands and the intimacy of small town life.

After enjoying the festival, I took a little drive through the Joe Hackett is a guide and sportsman residing in Ray Brook. Contact nearby Moose River Plains Wild Forest which is easily accessed him at brookside18@adelphia.net. on the outskirts of the village.

This sprawling recreation area is bounded on the north by the Pigeon Lakes Wilderness Area, Raquette Lake and the Blue Ridge Wilderness.

To the south and east, the vast West Canada Lakes Wilderness borders the private Adirondack League Club, and the Fulton Chain Lakes and State Route 28.

This chunk of wild territory contains one of the largest blocks of remote lands in the Adirondacks, and yet it is readily accessible by motor vehicle over a network of well maintained dirt roads.

The Moose River Plains Wild Forest offers many recreational opportunities, including hiking, skiing, mountain biking, snowmobiling, canoeing, hunting, fishing, horseback riding, and primitive camping.

There are also many miles of marked trails and numerous lakes and ponds which make this area an ideal destination for recreationists with varied interests and abilities.

In addition to numerous road- Motor vehicle access by Temporary Revocable Permit to certain DEC lands is available to people with side Ô drive toÕ campsites, the Moose a mobility impairment.
