ADK Challenge planning underway in Indian Lk. INDIAN LAKE — The 2016 Adirondack Challenge weekend will be held Friday, July 15 through Sunday, July 17. The Indian Lake Community Development Corporation and the Chamber of Commerce are working with the Town Supervisor Brian Wells to host an Adirondack Challenge Town-wide Informational Meeting Thursday, May 12, in the Byron Park Meeting Room, starting at 7 p.m. Interested individuals, business owners and organization leaders are invited to attend the meeting. The purpose of the Informational Meeting is to review the various 2015 Challenge activities including the Poker Paddle, tethered balloon rides, Adirondack Museum activities, Savor the Taste of Indian Lake and the wine tastings. During the meeting participants will be encouraged to brainstorm ideas on how businesses and organizations may want to participate in the upcoming Challenge. For example, businesses could host Adirondack Challenge Scavenger Hunts;
eateries could feature Adirondack Challenge Entree Specials with desserts featuring NYS apples and Adirondack maple syrup; lodging establishments could partner with attractions, businesses and organizations to offer weekend package deals with saving incentives for visitors. By coming together and sharing ideas, Indian Lakers can expand upon opportunities to participate in Adirondack Challenge activities. Governor Andrew Cuomo inaugurated this annual event three years ago to highlight recreational tourism in the Adirondack Park. The Adirondack Challenge has become a reflection of the governor’s interest in the Adirondacks as a recreation and tourism destination.

Region gets chunk of invasive species grants Long Lake nets funds By Christina Scanlon
christina@suncommunitynews.com
LONG LAKE — A total of $2 million to fight aquatic invasive species was awarded to 24 applicants by Gov. Andrew Cuomo last week. In the region, the towns of Long Lake, Horicon and the Lake George Association were among the winners. In all three cases, the money has been earmarked for education and outreach. “I believe there will be an increase of the boat stewards,” said Long Lake Super-
visor Clark Seaman, of the $69,750 award. The additional money will place the stewards at Lake Eaton and Little Tupper. Some stewards have been in place at Long Lake and Raquette Lake for three or four years, he said, based on funding through Paul Smith’s College. “It’s been well received from the reports we’ve seen,” he said. While there are no boat washing stations, Seaman said the results of the stewards have been very positive. The steward offers to inspect their boat and educate
them in the process,” he said. “If they find anything, they can offer to send them to hose it off at the town garage.” The grant money is to be used over the course of three years and requires a 25 percent match by the town. “Funding will not be a problem,” said Seaman of the town’s share, as they’ve been contributing money to the cause for some time. “Look at the cost of remediation once you’re infested,” he said. “We are a tourist economy.

County exploring use of modular building for kitchen Equipping a modular structure with a commercial kitchen may be the most cost effective solution to nutrition site, say lawmakers
“You can build it for a lot less, at least we believe that,” Palmer told lawmakers. County officials have toyed with other possible solutions to the year-old problem, including relocation of the operation to the Essex County Fairgrounds in Westport. Last spring, county officials pegged repairing the problems at $500,000. The kitchen prepares 1,400 meals daily, which are sent to the county’s 14 meal nutrition sites. Lawmakers approved the measure on Monday, with Ike Tyler (R-Westport) abstaining.
pete@suncommunitynews.com
ELIZABETHTOWN — County officials have a possible remedy to the county’s senior meal nutrition kitchen problem they hope will be easy to swallow: A relocation of the facility to a modular building. The Essex County Board of Supervisors on April 25 authorized the department of public works to go out for a request for proposal on a 3,000 square foot modular structure. Jim Dougan, deputy highway superintendent, said it was too early to pinpoint costs, which will be compared against making the necessary improvements to the Court Street location. A state health department inspection last spring revealed numerous code and ventilation issues at the 30-year-old building. Improvements cannot be made while the kitchen is operational, Dougan said. If a modular building is determined to be
the most cost-effective solution, operations would be moved permanently to the structure, which would be kept on-site once a suitable footprint was established. Equipment costs for a commercial kitchen also need to be factored into the final price tag, some of which may be picked up by ACAP, which runs the program, through grant funds.
Church to host Women’s Conference NORTH RIVER — The North River United Methodist Church will be hosting their first annual Regional Women’s Conference Saturday, June 11, at the First United Methodist Church of Warrensburg, from 9:30 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. Keynote speaker will be Kathy Hammond featuring Wade Hammond as the musical guest. The theme of this conference is “When Life Gives You Lemons.” The program focuses on how to overcome the trials and tribulations of everyday life through the teachings of Jesus Christ. The cost of this program is $20 per person, which includes a light lunch. Pre-registration is required by sending a check to the
Lawmakers would then have to decide what to do with the existing building. Essex County Manager Dan Palmer said prefabricated buildings often present more affordable solutions than building from scratch because construction is limited to building a foundation and crawlspace, thus minimizing the county having to pay prevailing wage rates.
North River United Methodist Church, PO Box 218, North River, NY 12856. The deadline is Friday, June 3. For more information, contact Amy Sabattis at 251-2519.
Yard sale to be held rain or shine NORTH RIVER — The North River United Methodist Church will be holding a yard sale fundraiser Saturday, May 7, at 4639 State Route 28, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Proceeds will be used towards operational expenses. The sale will be held rain or sine. For more information, contact Roxie Freebern at 251-4129.
The Essex County Board of Supervisors is exploring the idea of using a modular building as the new home of the county’s senior meal nutrition kitchen program. A 2015 state department of health inspection revealed numerous code violations at the present location. Repair to the existing structure may be prohibitively expensive, officials have said.

Shared superintendent a wise decision
A
pair of neighboring Essex County school districts made a bold move when they announced last year that they would share a superintendent. The arrangement between Elizabethtown-Lewis Central and Westport Central takes effect on July 1. It’s a wise decision that’s long overdue. After all, the districts have much in common. Both face declining enrollment and similar tax rates. Both already share a number of programs and services, including a boys soccer team that made it to the state finals last year. And both, like all public school districts across the state, are facing a financial landscape where austerity is the new normal. While districts across the North Country breathed a sigh of relief last month when Albany announced it would end the Gap Elimination Adjustment within a year, administrators were quick to point out that problems remain in how state education aid is allocated. We’ll never be flush with cash. Districts across the state are adopting their budgets this month. For the most part, the narratives are similar: Scrimp here, cut there. Account for mandated costs over there. And hope disaster doesn’t strike. The best case scenario is that no one gets a pink slip. Buckle up and hold on. Considering this perilous landscape, the districts who preemptively opt to pool their resources are embarking down a very wise path. Other districts should take a page from the ELCS-Westport Central playbook, like Newcomb and Long Lake, for instance. Or Minerva and Johnsburg — or even Crown Point and Ticonderoga.
Many permutations will do. Why shouldn’t they? Since 2000, public school enrollment in the Adirondack Park has declined by 25 percent. The numbers have now bottomed out at a steady annual decline of 2.5 percent. Elizabethtown-Lewis Central alone has lost 35 percent of its student body since 2003. The clock is ticking. Barring the steady import of exchange students, a policy some schools have adopted as a stop-gap measure, enrollment trends likely won’t see a reversal. As such, it’s very difficult to envision any type of scenario where situations will improve without drastic changes that come directly from districts themselves at the ground floor. While money is always a factor — it’s tough to examine the whopping salary and benefits packages for some of the superintendents in these tiny districts — the benefits go far beyond cost-savings. As Westport and Elizabethtown-Lewis Central have already correctly pointed out, sharing wherever possible will allow them to position themselves better in the event of future unknowns. There is no silver bullet to ward off the wolves at the door and turning a blind eye toward consolidation would be naïve. Districts must do whatever it takes to ensure students receive a top-notch education, even if it means making tough decisions that challenge the very identity of their communities.

DrillingÊ deeperÊ onÊ MedicaidÊ taxiÊ issue To the Editor: I appreciate the headline coverage you recently gave to the issue of rogue Medicaid taxis. I would like to drill a little deeper to provide some more information that your readers may find useful. The recent meeting referred to in Pete DeMola’s article was initiated and coordinated by myself and other staff at the Essex County Department of Social Services after compiling disparate allegations from clients, staff, relatives and other departments. As Mr. DeMola’s article correctly points out, coordination of Medicaid Transportation was taken away from all counties by the NYS Department of Health about four years ago. Fortunately, ECDSS still retains two drivers who provide safe, timely medical transportation for some of our more vulnerable residents. But since the DOH took over the bulk of transportation coordination, the Medicaid taxi business has exploded across the state. The real and alleged allegations we are seeing now is the result of good intentions gone awry: the state intended to save tax dollars by contracting with one transportation company (MAS) to coordinate Medicaid transportation statewide. Instead, in prioritizing the use of taxis for medical appointments, the program created a demand for more and more expensive taxis. In the process, it has been alleged that some less-scrupulous companies, with questionable driver hiring practices, have undercut legitimate local taxi companies and created fear amongst the elderly and medically frail.
Ironically, Medicaid transportation costs around the state have also skyrocketed, while at the same time, the much more affordable public transportation has lost Medicaid ridership. As mentioned, ECDSS — though no longer with any official responsibility or authority regarding coordination of Medicaid transportation — compiled a long list of allegations and observations, and shared them in a meeting with MAS and DOH. MAS rightfully reinforced the importance of people using their taxi complaint process, and DOH shared this list of allegations with the Office of the Medicaid Inspector General (OMIG). To our pleasant surprise, OMIG contacted DSS and asked if we would coordinate a meeting with Essex County law enforcement agencies to discuss what could be done. The result was the meeting referred to in the article, held here at DSS, and attended by representatives of county administration, the Board of Supervisors, New York State Police, Essex County DA, Essex County Sheriff ’s Office, DSS, Probation, EC Public Transportation, the Ticonderoga Police Department, DOH and four investigators from OMIG. The conversation was clarifying, productive and action-oriented. And yes, OMIG and DOH will be meeting with all of us again in a few weeks to check on mutual progress. We are confident that, collectively, we can improve the quality and cost-effectiveness of Medicaid taxi service here in Essex County. John P. O’Neill, MPA, Commissioner Essex County Department of Social Services

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
ThinkÊ longÊ andÊ hardÊ aboutÊ villageÊ dissolution
SpecialÊ thanksÊ toÊ respondersÊ overÊ busÊ accident To the editor: Earlier this month, colleagues and I hosted a group of 38 cadets and faculty from SUNY Maritime College for a weekend-long leadership training retreat at ESF’s Newcomb Campus. Shortly after beginning the trip home the bus on which they were travelling slid off the road just north of Minerva and rolled onto its roof. This frightening experience could have been compounded by feelings of helplessness if the cadets had faced the aftermath of the accident alone. Instead, the experience was transformed by an overwhelming demonstration of community action, selflessness, comfort, and hospitality. All the qualities cadets had been learning over the weekend as young leaders were modeled by the generosity of emergency workers, volunteers and others from across our central Adirondack communities. So many people contributed to assisting the cadets it is impossible to acknowledge everyone individually. However, we want to thank everyone associated with the following institutions and organizations for helping in countless ways to ensure the cadets were safe, cared for, and ultimately, able to return home that night. Blue Mountain Lake EMS Bolton EMS, Glens Falls Hospital Indian Lake Volunteer Ambulance Corps Johnsburg EMS, Minerva Central School District Minerva Volunteer Fire Department / Rescue Squad, New York State Police, Troop B Schroon Lake Newcomb Volunteer Fire Department / EMS Rescue Squad North Creek Volunteer Fire Company, North River Volunteer Fire Company. W. J. Mueller and Sons Adirondack Towing and Recovery Warrensburg EMS In particular, specific thanks are owed the State Police for their professionalism and compassion; all emergency squads for their immediate response and excellent aid; Superintendent Tim Farrell and his staff at Minerva Central School District for opening their school to us, establishing a triage and care center, preparing food, and providing a bus to deliver the remaining cadets to Glens Falls Hospital so they could rejoin those who had been injured; Billy Mueller and his team for retrieving the bus quickly and enabling a group of cadets to retrieve all the cadets’ belongings; and the staff at Glens Falls Hospital — not only for their excellent care but also for setting up a private room and welcoming the entire group while they waited for their fellow cadets to be released and the replacement tour bus to arrive. Providing dinner was greatly appreciated and just another step above and beyond anything expected. This experience will be a lifelong memory for all the cadets but not because of the bus accident. It will be because of how each of you responded in providing help. “Thank you” is hardly adequate but — thank you all. Paul B. Hai Associate Director, SUNY-ESF Northern Forest Institute ESF’s Newcomb Campus
WhenÊ doesÊ theÊ healingÊ begin? To the Editor: Gee, Wally, according to Gary Guido things are real swell in America right now? Things are going so smoothly and efficiently that you’d think America was still the setting for a Leave It To Beaver episode. No doubt he credits Pres. Obama for steering us into prosperity. However, the reality doesn’t match the message. Obama didn‘t have the least bit of economic expertise as he admitted those “shovel-ready jobs” weren’t as shovel-ready as he imagined. And he spent a boat load of borrowed money for very little economic gain. Unemployment figures are a fabrication, too. Over 94 million people are out of work and have stopped looking. The labor participation rate hasn’t been this bad since the Jimmy Carter era. Moreover, data for GDP was a paltry half percent of one percent in the first quarter of 2016. Guido’s argument that Wall Street is doing well looks good on paper, but is anyone’s 401K plan truly safe and secure in today’s global market? Abroad, President Obama seems to only practice policies of appeasement and “leading from behind”. What is he doing about Putin’s European aggression? Or Kim Jong-Un’s North Korea unpredictability? Or China holding a ton of our debt and manipulating their currency? Or Assad’s Syrian refugee fiasco? Obama is no prophet either when he said during his 2008 election speech, “This was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal.” My question to him is this, “When exactly does the healing begin, sir?” John P. Sharkey Ticonderoga
To the Editor: In response to the letter to the editor in the Sun’s April 16 issue: I am not worried about losing my identity if the Village of Port Henry dissolves. The petition that is circulating is to give the registered voters a chance to vote on the plan. A plan that is non binding. This is all part of the process. As far as the only thing you will lose is paying village taxes, that is not true. The village residents will be giving everything to the town, buildings, equipment, land and a beautiful beach with campsites. We will still have to pay our debt if we dissolve and pay the towns debt. We will also become a fire district and rent our own fire department building back. In response to the hydro plant in Mineville, it has been in the works for many, many years. The village will benefit with school taxes and we do pay town taxes, if this project ever starts. As far as trash, I called Ace Carting to be told its $35 to $40 a month depending on what size container you want. The $12 will not last. Think long and hard on what you will lose. Cathy St. Pierre Village of Port Henry
ResponseÊ toÊ Ô BombÊ TrainsÕ To the Editor: On “Bomb Trains” Michael Calitri wrote a letter chastising those who oppose “crude oil transport by trains,” urging them to do research “before they shoot the North Country in the foot.” Presumably he had in mind the letter sent by evironmental groups and others calling for a ban on Bakken oil trains. (Although Mr. Calitri referred to “advocates” of crude oil transport, I assume he meant opponents.) I wish to point out that it is Mr. Calitri who should do more research because his letter contains major factual errors. I also wish to explain why environmentalists in New York and Vermont and citizens all along Lake Champlain and the Hudson River Valley are deeply frightened by and opposed to trains carrying Bakken crude oil from North Dakota. 1. The Bakken oil “bomb trains,” as many have labelled them, run from Montreal to Albany (some with over 100 tankers) as well as from Buffalo to Albany. And from Albany the oil is transported on barges down the Hudson River. It seems Mr. Calitri does not realize that this is no ordinary crude. It is highly flammable. Yes, the disaster in Lac Mégantic, Quebec was the result of a runaway Bakken oil train, as Mr. Calitri writes, but it was the volatility of the Bakken crude that resulted in a massive explosion, kiling 47 people and decimating a large part of the town. Mr. Caletri says “crude oil in itself is not explosive.” But Bakken crude is highly explosive. 2. Most of the Bakken oil is transported in tank cars known as DOT-111s. No one has claimed these are civil war era tank cars, as Mr. Calitri alleges. Rather, as environmental groups point out, many bridges are of post-Civil War era infrastructure. The tank cars, however, designed to carry liquids like corn syrup, not oil, are dangerously prone to puncture. As far back as 1991 the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), warned that “the DOT 111 tanker . . . is too thin to resist puncture during an accident, is vulnerable to tearing, and has exposed fittings and valves that can easily snap off during a rollover..” Informed environmentalists believe an accident in which these tankers would derail and spill the oil into Lake Champlain would be an environmental catastrophe—so great that no insurance company would cover this risk. 3. Mr. Calitri says that transport of crude by train is as safe as air travel. What evidence does he have for this assertion? There have been at least 13 derailments of Bakken oil trains in the last few years. And environmental groups have documented “more than 250 other oil carrying trains have derailed in the U.S. since 2013.” Many more are predicted. What New Yorkers get (as well as residents of others states through which the Bakken oil trains pass) is a dreadful risk to lives, towns, fishing, sailing, drinking water, wildlife and tourism. There is no gain for New York. Bakken oil does not stay in New York. It is shipped abroad where it will contribute further to climate change. 4. Mr. Calitri charges that opponents of oil trains have been uninformed, “quick to jump on the bandwagon” and have failed “to look to elected officials.” Not true. Very well informed are the 35 environmental groups in New York and Vermont, 30 elected and appointed officials and community leaders in both states, the Cities of Plattsburgh and Burlington, and a number of businesses who signed onto the letter to 4 Congresspersons and four Senators in New York and Vermont calling for a federal legislative ban on the transport of crude oil by train along Lake Champlain and the Hudson River. And they have looked to elected officials—national ones. Because the bomb trains run in interstate commerce the letter was addressed to our elected representatives to Congress. Local elected officials have no authority over them. Why would the cities of Plattsburgh and Burlington sign on to the letter if they could address the problem themselves? 5. Mr. Calitri mentions a list of other environmental dangers to Lake Champlain. Yes, and Vermont has launched a new Clean Water initiative to address many of them. With a derailment of Bakken oil trains, clean-up inititives would be in vain. Monique Weston Keene

COMMENTARY
Little Bits All about May Gordie Little
Columnist
“Mother, May I?” Who remembers that game? I always lost when “mother” sent me backwards or sideways and I wasn’t clever enough to outsmart her. But I did manage to hold my own in “Kick the Can,” “Red light, Green Light,” “Red Rover” and especially “Spin the Bottle.” Sadly, we don’t see neighborhood children playing many games outside these days. It’s May. When I was a youngster growing up along the Grasse River, we never went inside at this time of year. Games were on the nearby school grounds in our tiny Massena Center community. “One Old cat” was another favorite you might recall. I asked Kaye for her childhood game memories and she has many, including skipping rope and hop scotch on the sidewalk. Marbles? Sure, but I never won. A neighbor, Jean Lacombe, always cleaned out all my mason jars. She was a sure shot and the bane of my mother who greeted me and my empty containers with, “You did it again. You let a girl beat you.” Yes, I did, and I’ve acknowledged their superiority ever since. My late friend, Jack Glasgow, called it “mud season,” but this past winter was fairly snowless and spring rains were late in arriving, so there was less mud than usual. May 1 has had great significance for civilizations far back into antiquity. If I mention “May Day,” most of you know what I mean. It’s always signified a spring festival of one kind or another. I love horses and people who revere them. I once wrote a delightful ghost story about an artist named Bianca who lived in a haunted housed on Macomb Street in Plattsburgh. She draws and paints horses. On May 1, she wished me a “Happy Beltane.” If that word is strange to you, check it out as you celebrate this transition between winter and summer and hope for a bountiful growing season this year. Beltane has always had a connection with fires; thus, “Fires of Bel.” He was a Celtic deity and huge bonfires were often lit to symbolically cleanse the area and make way for new growth. Before and on May 1 this year, I heard our Morrisonville fire siren ring numerous times for grass fires and intentional fires—some set maliciously by those who never heard of Beltane. If you have Scottish heritage, you might already know of the modern version of the Gaelic Beltane festival in that country. The fires are still lit, of course, but my favorite part is the home decorations involving beautiful May flowers. Of course, the feast is also an important feature of Beltane. Celebrations all but disappeared in Ireland and Scotland for many years, but, since the late ‘80s, they have been revived in a big way. I love the mystical and sometimes paranormal beginnings of such celebrations and how they can still wield power for us today. Happy May.

DEC announces 2015 deer harvest estimates ELIZABETHTOWN — Hunters harvested an estimated 202,973 deer during the 201516 hunting seasons, approximately 15 percent less than the prior year, the state Department of Conversation announced last week. The 2015 deer take included an estimated 103,401 antlerless deer and 99,572 antlered bucks. Statewide, this represents a 20.5 percent decline in antlerless deer harvest and an 8.3 percent decline in buck harvest from 2014. Over half of the bucks harvested in 2015 were aged 2.5 years and older, continuing a shift towards older bucks in the harvest. In most of the state, hunters are making this happen by their own voluntary decisions to pass up young, small-antlered bucks in favor of older deer, said the DEC.
With the severe winter of 2014-15 and a reduction in the number of permits available for antlerless deer in most Wildlife Management Units, a decline in deer harvest was anticipated. However, overall deer harvest was lower than expected, as hunting success was apparently also reduced by the unseasonably warm conditions and lack of snow during much of November and December. In fact, harvest reports were tracking on par with 2014 levels through early November, then started lagging behind 2014 once the regular firearms seasons began. As usual, deer harvests and populations vary considerably across the state, and in approximately 25 percent of New York, the 2015
harvest suggests that deer populations were unchanged or increased from prior years. Additionally, harvest data indicate that deer populations in portions of central New York, the Finger Lakes and the Lake Plains of western New York remain above desired levels and further population reduction is necessary. Deer harvest data are gathered from two main sources: harvest reports required of all successful hunters, and DEC staff ’s examination of nearly 14,000 harvested deer at check stations and meat processors. Statewide harvest estimates are made by cross-referencing these two data sources and calculating the total harvest from the reporting rate for each zone and tag type.

Minerva Clean-Up Day brings out a big crowd news@suncommunitynews.com
84914
MINERVA — It was a fine day to pick up trash for sure. The morning hours of Saturday, April 30, a day of sun, warmth and bugless conditions presented a great opportunity for Minerva citizens to get outside and clean up their community. Nearly every roadside in the Town was patrolled by around 50 people, each of whom was armed with plastic bags, gloves and a desire to do some needed spring cleaning. Post clean-up, a large crowd of trash pickers were treated to a Town of Minerva sponsored picnic at the Donnelly Beach Pavilion at Minerva Lake. Hamburgers, hot dogs, assorted salads, chips, desserts and beverages were available for all the hard workers. Certificates were given out to workers in three categories 1. Largest number of trash bags filled, nine, by the Tucker family; 2. Largest piece of trash found, snow tire, by Kouga Misawa; 3. Most interesting item, sewing machine, Katie Smith. Thanks go to all participants for another successful Minerva Clean-up Day. Thanks go to all the folks who donated food, time and bag pick-ups along Minerva’s highways. A very special thank you is due to Betty LeMay, who (with assistance, of course) organizes this excellent event on an annual basis.

fested? It’s well worth the investment.” In Horicon, a $100,000 award is on its way. Supervisor Matt Simpson said the town already spends “in excess of $45,000” each year in labor for the stewards. Horicon has worked on water quality issues for many years with the East Shore Schroon Lake Association, the Schroon Lake Association and the Brant Lake Association, said Simpson. Boat launch stewards are already managed by the East Shore Schroon Lake Association on Schroon Lake and by the Brant Lake Association on Brant Lake. Horicon will use the grant funds to increase coverage by the boat launch stewards at both lakes. “This will mean more hours and more education for the protection of the lakes,” he said. Though boat inspections by the stewards are not mandatory, Simpson said they are welcomes
Milfoil << Continued from | p. 1
The outfit is conducting preliminary tests using Diver Assisted Suction Harvesting, or DASH, a recent Adirondack Park Agency-approved method for invasives removal. The method uses suction instead of hand-harvesting to remove the plants. Following the company’s presentation, the board approved funds that were previously budgeted for hand-harvesting of the milfoil. Supervisor Steve McNally said last week he was uncertain of the final cost. Up to $75,000 was approved by the board. Depending upon the amount and time it takes to remove, final estimates are anywhere from $30,000 to $75,000. Suction harvesting collects a smaller biomass than does larger-scale mechanical harvesting operations because only small targeted areas are dredged, and because only the nuisance plants are removed, not all of the native and exotic plants. Hand-harvesting is more time consuming. It also affords less room for human error, such as

by the community. “People appreciate what we are doing,” he said. The Lake George Association will be using its $79,512 award for lake stewards in the town of Hague. “Until now, it’s been staffed by town employees,” said Patrick Dowd, communications director for LGA. It will also offer expanded hours in that location, as well as in the town of Putnam. “The goal is more education,” said Dowd. Exit inspections will also be conducted. “We advise if going to another lake, they should get cleaned at one of stations,” he said. Under the direction of LGA, steward programs have been in operation since 2008. Cuomo’s recent grants, said Dowd, “show the state is putting their money where their mouth is,” For a list of all recipients across the state, visit goo.gl/ZJyF5n. broken plants or incomplete removal of root systems. “We can pull as much in two weeks as has been done all summer,” said Dominic John, vice president and diver. Densely packed acres can take one to two weeks to remove all of the plant material, he said. Minerva Lake poses the “perfect storm” for invasive growth. It’s a man-made lake, with a lot of sediment. The plants can grow to any depth as long as sunlight can reach it. Divers told officials they’ve removed plants up to 25 feet below the water. Minerva Lake’s depth is around 10 feet, with 10 of the 83 acres of water considered to be densely packed with milfoil. The shallower depths, however, will hopefully offer a quicker removal. The team in Minerva will be comprised of two divers and one tender, who will spend six hours in the water each day. The removed material is suctioned directly into bags, which can then be composted, though not within 120 feet of a water source.

OBITUARIES
J.Ê MichaelÊ Ò MickeyÓ Ê Farrell INDIAN LAKE — J. Michael “Mickey” Farrell, 77, of Rte. 28, passed away Friday morning, April 29, 2016 at Glens Falls Hospital surrounded by his wife, five children and other loving family members. Born in Glens Falls on October 28th, 1938, he was the son of the late Francis and Helen Murphy Farrell. He was a graduate of Johnsburg Central School and attended Broome Technical Community College. On June 25th, 1960, Mickey married Susan Carroll at St. Mary’s Church in Indian Lake, the first wedding ceremony in the newly constructed church. Mickey worked in the early 60’s with Perini Construction Co. before joining Torrington Construction Co., which he worked for as a surveyor and then later as a quality control engineer for their concrete division before his retirement. He also served for nineteen years on the Town of Indian Lake’s Zoning Board. More than anything else, Mickey enjoyed spending time with his family, especially his wife and closest companion, his five children and sixteen grandchildren. Spending time on the porch at the Big Camp, mowing the vast hay fields at Lake Francis, visiting with his camp rental tenants, and giving his grandchildren four wheeler rides, were favorite pastimes, as was driving around town slowly to keep track of most things and most people. Country and polka music were often playing in his truck. Ice fishing, snowmobiling, working on snowmobiles, cars, and tractors were pastimes he enjoyed very much.
