Remembering Katrina Film highlights endangered Louisiana wetlands By Matt Bosley matt@denpubs.com LAKE PLACID — Far removed from the devastation that consumed New Orleans, La., four years ago, many residents of Lake Placid may be unaware of the ongoing effort to revive the Gulf Coast. That’s certainly not the case with Stephanie Short. A Lake Placid native, Short was an undergraduate student at Tulane University in New Orleans when Hurricane Katrina hit on Aug. 29, 2005. It was then that she and her roommates were forced to evacuate their off-campus apartment. “We went out to Houston, and we had to watch the whole thing on the weather channel,” said Short, noting how she and her friends stayed glued to the television to find out the status of friends and belongings left behind. When the school re-opened in January 2005, Short returned and was stunned by the aftermath, witnessing first hand what many of her friends in the area had lost; cars, homes, and even family members. “It was just tragic,” said Short, “especially since it seems like more could have been done to prevent it.” Short went on to earn her Bachelor ’s and Master ’s degrees from Tulane, majoring in Ecology. Her concern for the region led her to an internship with the Gulf Restoration Network, a nonprofit coalition of organizations and individuals committed to restoring the Gulf of Mexico to an ecologically and biologically sustainable condition. It was through her work there that she learned of a larger and ongoing issue facing Louisiana’s Gulf Coast: the continuous loss of vital wetlands. Short explained that the wetland loss is caused by the way the Mississippi River is dammed. This, coupled with erosion caused by a maze of shipping canals and artificial fill for development purposes means Louisiana’s wetlands are disappearing at an alarming rate. According to GRN, Louisiana loses a football field's worth of wetlands every 45 minutes. The loss of these wetlands threatens not only Louisiana's well-being, they say, but the environment and economy of the entire nation as they are a hub for 30 percent of the nation’s oil resources, a home to major fisheries, a buffer for hurricanes, and native ecosystem of several unique and endangered species. On Friday, Aug. 28, at 7 p.m. The Pines Inn in Lake Placid will be one of hundreds of venues across the country to host the Katrina Anniversary film screening of a new documentary, "Paradise Faded: The Fight for Louisiana." The GRN-sponsored film aims to remind the nation that Louisiana’s coast and communities have not yet recovered. “I went to New Orleans after Katrina and saw a lot of the damage.” said Kathy Pfohl, who volunteered to organize the local screening. “I can’t believe it’s been four years and there are still people out of their homes.” There is no charge for the event. A "Rediscover New Orleans" raffle will be held to help with funding for GRN. Prizes include two nights at the Intercontinental New Orleans and brunch for two, a $500 gift card on the airline of your choice, and $150 gift certificates for two famous New Orleans restaurants. Postcards will be available for guests to fill out, asking their Senators and Congressmen for action for Louisiana's coastal wetlands.

Proposed carousel gets second wind By Matt Bosley matt@denpubs.com SARANAC LAKE — Community members looking to construct a new attraction in Saranac Lake are hoping their efforts will take on new life with their latest grant award. The Adirondack Carousel project, a nonprofit organization aimed at building and maintaining a full-size, handcrafted carousel, was recently awarded a $100,000 grant from the New York State Department of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation. “We are thrilled to have this additional funding,” said Ted Glowa, president of the Adirondack Carousel’s all-volunteer board. “It is also very encouraging that the State is continuing to support our efforts to bring a community carousel to the Adirondacks despite the economic downturn,” he added. “They clearly view the carousel as a project that will have a positive impact in the Tri-Lakes region.” The brainchild of local woodcarver Karen Loffler, the carousel is seen by many as a way to strengthen the local economy by providing entertainment while encouraging respect for the environment and an appreciation for the Adirondack region. The carousel is planned to be housed in an enclosed, timberframe, decagonal pavilion with space for community programs and special events. The Village of Saranac Lake has already al-

lotted a site for the building in the William Morris Play Park, conveniently located near the business district and Adirondack Scenic Railroad train depot on the corner of Bloomingdale Avenue and Depot Street. Instead of the traditional horses, it will feature 23 unique wooden wildlife figures that are native to the region, all handcarved by volunteer artists from across the country. Examples in-
clude a blue heron, hermit thrush, bobcat, skunk, beaver, red fox, bass, and river otter, many of which are already completed and on display in various art galleries around the North Country. The Adirondack Carousel project got its first big boost in November 2007 when it was awarded a $240,000 matching grant from the Parks and Recreation Department’s Environ-
mental Protection Fund. The funding allowed the organization to hire a director and mount a capital campaign. The first phase of the project successfully raised over $400,000 for construction, and attracted more than $200,000 in in-kind donations, mostly in the form of the carved figures, which are valued at about $1,500 apiece.

Court upholds Sprague’s candidacy By Matt Bosley matt@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — A lawsuit aimed at getting one Essex County District Attorney candidate off the ballot has been rejected in court. Five Elizabethtown residents filed a claim in July, arguing that Republican-endorsed candidate Kristy Sprague’s petition signatures had to be declared invalid because she is not a resident of Essex County. Incumbent DA Julie Garcia was also named among the petitioners in the suit. Justice Robert J. Muller handled the case in Essex County Supreme Court, and delivered his decision Aug. 14. He cited precedents that dealt with the state Election Law. “Based upon this, it is clear ‘‘the only requirement’ imposed by the State Board of Elections ‘is that the candidate be a resident at the time of election,’’” Muller wrote. Sprague called the trial a publicity stunt on the part of Garcia and a waste of time and resources. “My opponent was wrong on the law and wrong on the facts,” said Sprague, “just simply wrong.”
Gregory and Barbara Krieger, Nancy Dawson, and Malcolm and Judyth Martin were the five residents to bring the suit. All are registered Republicans. Attorney James Walsh, who represented the petitioners in the case, said he was disappointed with the outcome. “I believe the constitutional office of District Attorney does require that person to live in the county in which they serve,” he said. “I think I provided the judge with case law supporting that.” Sprague currently lives in Clinton County where she serves as the Assistant DA, but has expressed a desire to move to Essex County before the November 3 Election. Sprague won the Republican endorsement over Garcia, who later gained the endorsement of Democrats. Garcia has remained a registered Republican, however, and plans to face Sprague in the Sept. 15 primary. “I am very pleased the voters will have a choice in the upcoming election,” said Sprague. “I look forward to being on the September ballot as the endorsed Republican candidate.” The two candidates are set to face off in

Village debates selling land to county By Chris Morris denpubs@denpubs.com LAKE PLACID — The Lake Placid Village Board of Trustees must decide in the coming weeks what to do with two parcels of land that the Essex County Department of Transportation needs for the Old Military rehabilitation project. Village Attorney Janet Bliss told the board Monday night that she received a package that contained paperwork pertaining to the county’s purchase of two village parcels. One is a 98-square-foot piece of land at the corner of Mill Pond Drive and Old Military; the other is a .69-acre parcel near the Chubb River Bridge and the Lake Placid Volunteer Fire Department. Essex County needs the land for a multi-million dollar state DOT project to replace the Chubb River Bridge and repave Old Military between state Routes 86 and 73. The project will also straighten out sections of the roadway that have contributed to several motor-vehicle accidents over the years. Bliss said that as far as she knows, the county plans to turn the land over to the state as soon as the acquisition is official. “They want to take fee title,” she said. “When we were originally approached they wanted us to donate the land.” Essex County is offering the village $52,600 for the larger
parcel and $1100 for the smaller one. The larger parcel includes the snowfields traditionally used for trailers during the horse shows. Bliss noted that the board could challenge the appraisal of the land if trustees think the numbers are too low. “If we don’t accept now, we can continue fighting later on,” she said. “I just want the board to be aware of the situation, because the representatives involved are in town this week if the board has questions.” Trustee Dave Jones noted that local law requires the village to show a “lack of need or surplus land to get rid of village property.” He also noted that there are at least 60 residencies along that roadway and wondered how the county planned to acquire those easements. The county also plans to fund the relocation of 28 power poles along Old Military Road. In other business, Trustee Zay Curtis introduced a draft for Local Law No. 3 of 2009 – legislation similar to a law passed by the Saranac Lake Village Board of Trustees in July. The law would provide Lake Placid Police Chief Scott Monroe the authority to request the help of other police agencies without first having to contact the mayor, Craig Randall. Randall says the law is a matter of common sense. “Other towns and villages are enacting similar laws,” he said. “It basically allows the chief to request mutual aid in the event of an emergency without first having to contact
myself.” The mayor is considered the chief law enforcement officer for villages, and as such holds the power to request help from other police departments and emergency services. A public hearing on the proposed local law will be held during the September 21 meeting of the Board of Trustees. The board also passed a motion to allow Trustee Jason Leon and Treasurer Peggy Mousaw to travel to Saratoga Springs on August 25 for a meeting with the New York State Department of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation. Trustee Leon said the purpose of the trip is to get re-approved for a 2006 Parks Office grant totaling $39,000. The village received the 50 percent matching grant several years ago, but the allotted time to use the funds expired. Leon says it expired primarily due to the regime change after last March’s election. The money would be used at the village’s three parks for equipment upgrades and to fight a grub infestation at the Teddy Bear Park off Hill Crest Avenue. Finally, the board approved the appointment of Joshua Wemette to the Lake Placid Volunteer Fire Department. Mayor Randall said it’s important for young individuals to volunteer. “At a time when we keep reading about how difficult it is to get young people to volunteer, it’s great to welcome a young new recruit to the fire department,” he said.
Local officials unnerved by APA shoreline survey Agency defends photographing sites By Jonathan Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Local government officials in the southern Adirondacks are criticizing the Adirondack Park Agency’s recent surveying tactic of photographing private property along waterway shorelines, characterizing it as an invasion of privacy. But APA officials defended their actions this week, calling the survey technique as merely a method of establishing a much-needed database. But area officials say the agency may be gathering evidence for future enforcement actions against property owners for land-use violations that they haven’t yet committed. According to APA Deputy Director of Planning Jim Connolly, the agency has been taking pictures of in-park shore-
lines from boats for the past two years. So far, the shorelines of 33 lakes have been photographed – with a special focus on the structures built on lakeside private property. “It is providing us with a better database of what is on the shorelines of lakes within the park – a database of facts,” Connolly said. “It is an important practice for the agency when it comes to permitting and the protection of shorelines.” But to Adirondack Local Government Review Board Executive Director Fred Monroe — supervisor of the Town of Chester — the float-by photography reeks of “big brother” government. “The APA is photographing private residences with the direct purpose of collecting evidence for future enforcement actions against citizens,” he said. “This is going on without probable cause or any other reasoning.” APA Board of Commissioners Chairman Curt Stiles said that the practice has been discussed several times in agency
meetings, although not with a great deal of fanfare. Agency Legal Counsel John Banta noted that the primary intent of the survey is to establish a baseline of where the region’s shorelines stand at present and that the practice is legal and appropriate. Banta argued that using the photographs for enforcement would be an atypical application – but is not out of the question. “Enforcement applications are not the primary goal,” Banta said. “But I am not going be naive about it either.” But for Monroe — whose property on Brant Lake was recently photographed — and his local government peers, the survey is just an example of government trampling on people’s privacy. “I had no idea who they were: the FBI, CIA, terrorists,” he he said. “I can just see this as something that is going to pit neighbor against neighbor for years to come and will have no redeeming value.”

DOT rebuffs APA rule, installs galvanized guardrails By Jonathan Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com
County extends occupancy tax hike By Jonathan Alexander jonathan@denpubs.com
”The efforts to use the rustic rail in state parks were well conceived, but public safety comes first,” he said. “Obviously, when we discovered the rustic rails were not meeting our useful life expectations we began replacing them with galvanized rails.” The State Land Master Plan — the document that governs state land in the Adirondacks including highways – requires rustic rails as an appearance measure, reflecting the wilderness character of the park. DOT officials, however, have cited they retain authority over the roadways, and they said this week that painting the galvanized rails or using wooden rails is too expensive for consideration.
ELIZABETHTOWN — Essex County supervisors unanimously approved continuing an increase of three-quarters of a percent on the county hotel occupancy tax Monday, Aug. 17. At a special meeting of the full board, supervisors stressed that the move is not a tax hike, but simply an extension of a much-needed funding stream. The tax is in addition to the regular three percent the county collects on hotel occupancy and was set to expire Nov. 30. For Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava, the extension is an essential method of keeping property taxes down. “We have used that additional three-quarters of a percent to hold the line on property taxes,” he said. “In my opinion, sales and occupancy taxes are far less regressive then increasing property taxes.” Essex County Manager Dan Palmer told WNBZ that the additional three-quarters of a percent take accounts for roughly $4 million annually in county revenue. New York State Governor David Paterson granted homerule authority to Essex County for the extension on July 29. The extension prolongs the additional tax until November 30, 2011.

ELIZABETHTOWN — Essex County may hold off hiring two additional transportation officers for a few months until the budgetary effects of six previous hirings can be assessed. Essex County Manager Dan Palmer told supervisors Monday, that he is unsure about how the additional six corrections officers already employed by the county sheriff ’s department will impact overtime costs. “I suggest we table any additional hirings until I can figure out the impact of the current officer ’s on the 2010 budget,” Palmer said. Last week, Essex County Sheriff Henry Hommes told supervisors that due to a state mandate, he is required to hire two additional officers.
In response, supervisors scrutinized the request citing budgetary concerns, but agreed to consider the move at the upcoming full board meeting at the end of the month. But now, the measure may wait until the fall before reaching the county board of supervisors floor for approval. At present, Essex County employs 65 officers between sheriff ’s deputies, and correctional officers. In June, the state Department of Corrections ruled that Essex County must have 67 officers. But supervisors and county officials are wary of any further hirings, as they expect declining revenues and tight budgetary constraints.

ALBANY — Citing that safety trumps aesthetics, the state Department of Transportation is moving forward with the installation of galvanized guardrails, although the Adirondack Park State Land Master Plan calls for rustic rails to be used. DOT spokesman Skip Carrier said Monday that the rustic rails were simply unsafe — and the primary purpose of guardrails is safety, not aesthetics. DOT has launched a 10-year replacement project that will eventually phase out all of the 2 million linear feet of CorTen alloy weathered rustic rails throughout the Adirondacks, the Catskills and numerous state parkways in the state. The cost of the entire replacement is estimated to be $140 million, and new guardrails have recently started to appear throughout the southern Adirondacks. But Adirondack Council spokesman John Sheehan is questioning DOT’s claim that galvanized rails are superior, claiming that no documentation has been produced by the state to reinforce it. “The Adirondacks are a special place and deserve a different standard,” Sheehan wrote in a recent guest editorial in the Schenectady Daily Gazette. “DOT should make replacements with the kind of rustic rails with what are there now, or at least something that looks like them.” The Cor-Ten steel alloy was formulated to supposedly create an external surface rust barrier that would block deeper corrosion, while blending with the scenery. But the Cor-Ten rails have been rusting through in as little as five years, while the lifespan of the typical galvanized rail is about 40 years, Carrier said.

ANCA taps Hill for interim director SARANAC LAKE — The Adirondack North Country Association has appointed Gregory Hill of Lake Clear, NY as interim executive director to replace Terry Martino, who is becoming the executive director at the Adirondack Park Agency. Hill has served as a Community Assistance Specialist at ANCA since 2006. “ANCA is delighted and thankful to have Greg Hill assume this vital position to ensure the continuity of proGregory Hill grams and services throughout the Adirondack North Country and a seamless transition in ANCA’s operations,” said Don Caldera, ANCA president. Since 2006, Hill has assisted with the Adirondack Park Regional Assessment Project (APRAP), the Common Ground Alliance, and implementation of the Saranac Lake Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy. With Martino’s departure, he will assume board participation with CBN Connect and will engage in NYS DEC Steering Committee work on the Adirondack economy. “He has worked directly with Martino on a wide range of programming which makes his appointment extremely valuable to our Board, staff and members,” Caldera added. “He also brings over forty years of professional experience to ANCA’s commitment to economically viable communities and an improved rural quality of life.” His responsibilities will also include fiscal and personnel management, public communications, fund development, and coordination on a wide range of public and private North Country initiatives, including implementation of ANCA’s current Strategic Plan. Hill’s professional experience includes 22 years on the APA staff before retiring as the Assistant Director of Regulatory Programs there. Previously he directed the Hartwick College Environmental Studies Center and was the assistant director at the Cortland College Outdoor Education Center in Raquette Lake. Early in his career he worked as a forester with the NYSDEC in Sherburne, N.Y. Prior to joining ANCA, he pursued a doctoral degree in geography from Syracuse University’s Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs. He holds degrees from the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry and Cornell University. ANCA’s Board of Directors has committed to a search for an Executive Director, said Caldera. Interested applicants can submit their resume by writing to ANCA at 67 Main Street Suite 201, Saranac Lake, N.Y. 12983. ANCA is a 55-year-old nonprofit corporation that strengthens the economy and quality of life in the 14 counties of Northern New York.

Pharming: A new threat to youth T
eenagers are abusing prescription drugs at a higher level than just a few years ago. Just as many teens get their alcohol from their parents, they are also getting prescription drugs from their parents. “Pharming,” short for pharmaceutical parties or prescription drug parties, is becoming more common. As our larger culture ages, pain medicines are used more frequently in the home. Typically, young people are not in need of pain medications other than for the occasional accident or medical procedure. They don’t have arthritis, sore joints, lower back pain or neck pain, all fairly common maladies that confront large numbers of adults. Pain management is often aimed at people that are out of their teens and the medications that address chronic pain are often abused by teens and twenty-something’s at ”pharming parties.” Adding to the danger of abusing prescription drugs is that many young people are consuming alcohol at the same time. Alcohol can act with prescription drugs to produce sometimes fatal results. A number of high profile celebrity deaths punctuate the threat of mixing prescribed medications with other drugs or alcohol. Marilyn Monroe’s, Heath Ledger ’s and Michael Jackson’s deaths probably resulted from a mixture of prescribed medications with other drugs or alcohol. According to the Partnership for a Drug Free America, abuses of prescription medications are so widespread that their use is “normalized” among youth. Nearly one in five youth now report using prescription medications to get high. Two in five teens reported that the use of prescription drugs was safer than illicit drug use. Far too many teens have a false sense of security when it comes to prescription drug use. One third of teens reported that using prescription drugs to get high once in a while is safe or OK. Two thirds of prescription abusing teens reported that they easily got prescription medications from their parents’ medicine cabinets. Youth report that some medications are available through the internet with its loosely defined restrictions. Many parents don’t know about the risks presented by
“pharming” or possibly, what it is. While numbers are not conclusively available, it is believed that few parents talk to their children about prescription drug abuse. About ninety percent of adults state that they have warned their children about illicit drug and alcohol use. Only thirty percent of teens say they learn about the dangers of drugs from their parents. That is a significant By Scot Hurlburt gap and information sources outside the family become especially important given the information gap around drugs. The good news is that youth that learn about the dangers of drugs from their parents are fifty percent less likely to use drugs. Parents, go to the internet. Learn about this issue. Talk to your child in a reasonable manner about your concerns. Your caring words are very important to your children; they want to hear from you. Learn what medications are subject to abuse. Learn how to secure narcotic medications and how to dispose of them safely when unused by you. While prescription drug abuse is a new concern and parents need to protect their children, overall, youth are doing well when drugs are considered. Overall, illicit drug use rates have leveled off and in many instances declined. Let’s not forget that. If parents let their children know that they are concerned about this dangerous practice and act responsibly in handling prescription drugs, prescription drug abuse may be a temporary blip on the screen. Remember, all kids count.

Twice the Fun: Double-Coupon Days L ast week, I mentioned that pairing dollar coupons with dollar sales at the grocery store are one of my favorite ways to get items for free. Another easy way? Double-coupon days. Coupon "doubling" occurs when a store matches a coupon's face value and passes the added bonus savings on to you, the shopper. Here's how it works. When you go to the checkout and hand the cashier a 50-cent coupon during double-coupon days, the cashier scans it and the cash register automatically doubles the value of that coupon to $1. You receive a dollar savings on one item with one 50-cent coupon. Grocery stores handle double-coupon promotions differently. Some stores double coupons up to a certain amount every day. Others offer double-coupon promotions on certain days of the week or certain weeks of the month. Still others offer double coupons on some days and triple coupons on others. During a triple-coupon promotion, a 50-cent coupon is worth $1.50. These sales are definitely worth checking out because stores that double coupons make it very easy for shoppers to get groceries for free or at big discounts. However, in my experience, many stores have specific rules for the ways they double coupons. You'll want to refer to your store's coupon policy to determine exactly how your store handles these promotions. Visit the store's Web site for the information or ask for a copy of the guidelines next time you're shopping. For example, one national grocery store chain will double all coupons worth up to 55 cents every day of the week. Another national chain doubles coupons up to $2 each, but they only run this promotion for one week each month. Some stores will double Internet coupons, others won't. It's important to find out exactly how your store handles doubles so that you aren't disappointed at the checkout. Let's go back to our example from last week, the "dollar sale" at the grocery store. Our store has many items on sale for $1, including cans of soup, toothbrushes and bags of frozen vegetables. Our store also doubles coupons up to $1 in value. How can we get things for free? Well, any coupon with a value of 50 cents will automatically be doubled to $1. I have a 50-cent coupon for the soup, a 55-cent coupon for the toothbrush and a 75-cent coupon for the vegetables. With those three coupons doubling in value, I'll be taking home a can of soup, a toothbrush, and a bag of frozen veggies all free. It's important to note, too, that coupons typically do not double over the value of the item. This is different from the way some stores handle "overage," which is when your coupon's value exceeds the cost of the item you're buying. At many stores, using a $1 coupon on an item that is on sale for 75 cents will not only give you that item for free, it will also take an extra quarter off your total purchase. This is the overage value that was left over after your $1 coupon paid for your 75-cent item. However, when a store offers double coupons, they're matching the coupon's value out of their own pocket. So, using a $2 coupon on a $3.79 bottle of spray cleaner will get you the cleaner for free, as the coupon doubles up to $4, but it will not give
you that extra 21 cents in overage. However, you'll be taking items home for free, and who doesn't love that? Now, don't fret if you no stores double coupons in your area. Coupon doubling tends to be a regional phenomenon. Here in the Chicago area, none of our grocery stores double coupons, ever! The closest stores that do are 45 minutes from where I live. (And By Jill Cataldo yes, I take "coupon field trips" to them on occasion.) But I do the bulk of my weekly shopping in a store that does not double coupons, and I still manage to cut my bill by half or better with coupons each week.

North Elba may upgrade parking area By Chris Morris denpubs@denpubs.com SARANAC LAKE — The North Elba Town Council last week began revisiting an eight-year-old plan to expand and upgrade the parking area at the Jackrabbit Cross-Country Ski Trail entrance on McKenzie Pond Road. Plans first came before the board several years ago when Adirondack Ski Touring Council Executive Director Tony Goodwin told the board that the limited parking space at the trailhead was turning into a safety hazard. Back then, Goodwin had the board’s support and an agreement with the highway department to receive in-kind services to supplement a grant – but the grant never panned out. The problems at the trailhead have not gone away. The parking area is a few miles outside of Saranac Lake on McKenzie Pond Road – across the street from the entrance to the Black Fly Softball fields. Goodwin says past attempts to use space owned by Black Fly have been unsuccessful. Now, Goodwin says the Ski Touring Council is willing to pay
for the work – if the town of North Elba is willing to lend some manpower. At least week’s town board meeting, Goodwin updated the board on his progress. He says the council will raise private funds if the town were to provide a road crew and equipment for excavation. Goodwin is hopeful that he will obtain an easement with Black Fly to use a small portion of their land. Supervisor Roby Politi supported the idea, but asked that Goodwin sit down with town attorney Ron Briggs to make sure the town wouldn’t be working on private land. “We can’t be doing work on private lands that will increase that land’s value in any way,” Politi said. Highway Superintendent Larry Straight also expressed concerns about working on private lands. But he says the cars are precariously parked in the wintertime and are in risk of being clipped by oncoming snowplows. Goodwin says that if the town can’t perform work on the private land, then the ski council will explore the possibility of hiring an independent contractor for that portion of the work.

Little, Sheehan lobby for land swap By Jon Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com TUPPER LAKE — State officials and environmentalists are teaming up to lobby the public in-favor of a pending amendment that would authorize the construction of a set of power lines which have already been built. But the potential for low voter turnout has the involved parties concerned about the passage of the necessary land swap. Adirondack Council spokesman John Sheehan and state Senator Betty Little have initiated campaigns to increase the statewide awareness of the state Rte. 56 land swap amendment; intended to garner statewide support. And in an off election year, finding rigorous voters is the strategy of choice. “We will work to promote this in NYC, where Bloomberg is running for re-election and where turnout will be high," Sheehan said. In May, National Grid flipped the switch on the lines running eastward from Colton and providing a new power source to Tupper Lake. But the fact that the lines cross state forest preserve without a public referendum approving a constitutional amendment is in direct violation of Article 14 of the state constitution. Article 14 mandates that all forest preserve lands remain forever wild. The majority of the lines run across private property or remain on the state Rte. 56 highway easement -- all except a short stretch between Stark Falls and Sevey Corners. According to Sheehan, the six acres that would be sacrificed by the forest preserve by the amendment is far superior than the alternative. In order to avoid the forest pre-
serve, a 3.5 mile detour would have been cut directly into the woods, encasing the preserve and creating a barrier to future forest growth. “The only clear path available to avoid the strip of public lands would have required a 3.5-mile detour through a pristine white pine old-growth forest, through the state's best habitat for the endangered Spruce Grouse," Sheehan said in a prepared statement. "The route would cross 95 separate streams and wetlands. This would be a new maintenance road in the woods." It makes practical sense for the people of Tupper Lake as well, he notes. "Power outages over the past few winters have required the village to put people in shelters so they didn't freeze to death," he said. National Grid, the New York State Power Authority and the state Department of Environmental Conservation signed an agreement authorizing the construction in early 2008. "DEC agrees to forebear enforcement against National Grid and the Power Authority to proceed so long as National Grid and the Power Authority are pursuing a constitutional amendment," the agreement states. Little said things would get very complicated if the amendment failed. An amendment to the state constitution requires two separate passages in both legislative houses. The measure passed the state Senate and the Assembly for the second time last spring. If successful, over 50 acres would be added to the forest preserve off of the highway. It will be on the ballot state-wide on November 3.

APA officials hash out wind turbine policies By Jonathan Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com RAY BROOK — Several Adirondack Park Agency commissioners indicated Thursday that they aren’t comfortable with the agency’s restrictive tower policy being applied to residential wind turbines. At the APA Regulatory Programs Committee meeting Thursday, commissioners were faced with two applications for the construction of two proposed residential turbines – one in Essex, the other in Indian Lake. Committee member Dick Booth helped steer the con-

versation from the two project applications into a debate over the Agency’s imposition of the tower policy in determining whether to approve or deny wind turbine developments. “It seems to me we need to look at this apart from the tower policy,” Booth said. “We have to ponder the question: have these become acceptable structures for residential uses in general?” The APA tower policy was originally drafted to assure the “substantial invisibility” of telecommunications towers. Officials said the intent is to protect against projects that may adversely effect the aesthetic character of the park. Committee member Art Lussi questioned when the policy’s scope was expanded to include wind turbines. “The agency staff determined to apply it to other types of projects,” he said. “Did we actually ever adopt that as a board?” Two other commissioners agreed with the assertion that the tower policy may be
inappropriate when considering wind turbines. Agency Deputy Director Mark Sengenberger suggested that the concept of “substantial invisibility” is highly subjective and problematic to impose, but that commissioners should undertake more wind turbine hearings before drafting a new separate policy. APA Board of Commissioners Chairman Curt Stiles said Thursday that the applicability discussion needs to happen, but not while the board is making decisions on particular projects. He said that the agency is attempting to streamline its permitting processes to make them more userfriendly. The committee unanimously approved both individual wind turbine projects, as did the full board on Friday. Regardless of the outcome, APA officials said that issue of using the tower restrictions in reviewing wind turbine projects, is a matter than must be addressed.

Benefit this Sunday for Tupper Lake native diagnosed with breast cancer By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Debbie Thornton has been friends with Renee Arnold for nearly 20 years and would do anything for her. When the Tupper Lake native was diagnosed with breast cancer earlier this year, Thornton was by her friend’s side, offering to help in any way she could. “Renee would do the same for anyone else. She’s just a kind-hearted, giving person,” Thornton said. As a single mother of two teenage sons now living in Morrisonville, Arnold has been doing her best to keep her spirits up, particularly for her boys, Thornton said. “She’s been handling this as best she can. I don’t know if I could be as strong as she is,” said Thornton. “She’s giving it her all.” “Renee’s a special person and it’s terrible for her to have to go through this at 46 years old — it’s not good at any age,” she added. Kathleen Rushford, who works with Arnold at the Wyeth Pharmaceuticals research facility in Chazy, said she and her fellow co-workers have felt a void with-

Some of the prior grant money is still available, but only by matching it with in-kind services. “We’re very thankful for all the support that individuals and businesses have given thus far, but we’re going to need additional help to make the
out Arnold since she’s been out of work because of her illness. “We all miss her,” said Rushford. As a sign of their support, Rushford has joined with Thornton and some of Arnold’s other friends and co-workers to hold a benefit this Sunday, Aug. 23, in her honor. The benefit, which will assist Arnold with her medical expenses, will be held at Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 125, 116 Boynton Ave., beginning at 12 p.m. As word spread of the benefit and Arnold’s condition, many people have offered their support as well, said Rushford. Employees from the Wyeth Pharmaceuticals facility in Rouses Point and the Clinton County Sheriff’s Department in Plattsburgh — both where Arnold previously worked — have also shown their support by making contributions toward the benefit, said Rushford. In addition, local businesses from the MorrisonvillePlattsburgh area and Arnold’s hometown of Tupper Lake have contributed toward the event. “Everyone has been really great,” Rushford said. “I really hope this benefit goes well for her. She deserves that.” “She’d be the first one doing this for
someone else,” said Thornton. “Seeing how many people really do care for her would really boost her morale.” The cost of the spaghetti dinner will be $10 per person and include salad, garlic bread and a dessert. Luck Brothers is covering the expense of putting on the dinner, said Rushford, and the desserts are being made by employees at the Wyeth facility in Rouses Point and Luck Brothers. “We really want to thank all of them,” she said. Michigans will also be served, with those purchasing a dinner to receive a ticket to vote in a michigan sauce contest. The winner of the contest will have a donation made in their name to benefit Arnold. The event will also include a 50-50 drawing, raffles and auctions, all which will also benefit Arnold. Entertainment will be provided by the band Heartland Express and DJ service Lisa and Company. Those unable to attend the benefit and who would still like to make a contribution toward Arnold’s medical expenses, may do so by sending donations to her at 9 Grace St., Morrisonville, N.Y. 12962.

Specifically, the board is looking for members who can help them reach out to people in the community and beyond, provide website and marketing support, oversee the construction of the pavilion, be part of the fundraising team, and assist with administering the state grants. “We’re hopeful that the new $100,000 will help get us some excited new board members and some more volunteers in the area that can fill in where staff did before,” said Glowa. “If we can do that,
we’re going to be successful.” The board plans to offer an orientation and brainstorming session in the near future for anyone who is interested in volunteering for Adirondack Carousel. Those interested should contact Glowa at tedglowa@aol.com or by phone at 8913274. “We can’t wait to see the smiles on the children’s faces when they ride one of the beautifully carved Adirondack wildlife figures on the Adirondack Carousel with their friends and family,” said Glowa.

Morency responds to opponent’s criticisms By Chris Morris denpubs@denpubs.com BLOOMINGDALE — St. Armand Supervisor Joyce Morency last week responded to comments made by her Democratic challenger in this November ’s election; Tom Jones. The incumbent, who has been in office since the early 1980s, says that Jones made a series of statements that were misleading at best. “Some of these things that he says are just careless words thrown into a statement that he’s making,” Morency said. “He says it’s time for change,” she said. “Everybody says that every time there’s an election and someone’s been in office for a while. Change is only good if it’s good for St. Armand, and I don’t think that if he wins this election and becomes supervisor that will be in the best interest of the people in St. Armand.”
Jones announced his candidacy about two weeks ago. At the time, he said he wanted to open up the lines of communication between the town board and the community. “I would conduct board meetings in a more inviting manner,” he said. “Some people come to ask questions. I would try to be patient and answer those questions in a civil manner.” But Morency disagrees. “Our meetings have always been open,” she said. “The one thing about St. Armand is, a lot of people don’t attend the meetings. I have so many people come in and out of this office with something they want to know about or some request and we take care of it.” “So they don’t come to the board meeting because maybe they’re happy with the way things are,” she added. “We run a pretty tight conservative budget and we’re a small town, there’s a lot of things we might want to do but can’t afford to do. But he’s wrong when he says we’re not an open government.” Jones also said that he wants to revisit the
town’s method of procuring maintenance equipment and heavy machinery. He believes the town needs more transparency during the bidding process. “One of those is the procurement of trucks and heavy equipment,” he said. “Our policy is we need to have three bidders. But that policy is not always followed. I think it’s important that the policy be utilized. We adopt it every January but we don’t really use it.” Morency says that statement is simply not true, citing a 2008 purchase of a snowplow for the Highway Department. “Our highway superintendent talks with the Essex County DPW and prepares specs to make sure anybody can bid on the truck,” she said. On the county level, Morency has chaired several committees and has been actively involved in the budgeting process year-in and year-out. “I’ve got experience working with CPAs,” she said. “Financing is my thing and that’s
what I’m recognized for at the county.” She’s also worked closely with North Country Community College. Morency also notes that Jones said Medicaid takes up half of the county’s budget – which is approximately $96 million. In the county budget, $14 million is raised by the tax levy, with $7 million going to Medicaid. “He’s talking about how he’s going to try and get more support for it, because he says it uses up half of the county budget,” Morency said. “There’s a big difference between a county budget and the tax levy. Our county budget is $96 million. So that’s an example of things that he doesn’t understand but makes statements about.” Morency says that she’s proven herself as a leader in St. Armand. “I believe in my experience and my abilities and my dedication to the residents of St. Armand and I put them up against Mr. Jones anytime,” she said.

ing substantial support from those backing economic development. Paterson’s mandate is expected to initiate sweeping reform across the 110 state agencies by stripping power from regulatory boards and commissioners, and handing it over to five hand-picked insiders of Paterson’s administration —with an eye on economic development. The order requires a review of each regulatory agency ,within the sprawling state government bureaucracy, by the newly formed Regulatory Review Reform Committee. The order states that the committee will conduct a review of regulations and paperwork for each state agency and that those procedures that are deemed outdated, unbalanced, unwise or unduly burdensome to business development will be
eliminated. In response, environment, labor and consumer advocacy organizations across the state have called emergency meetings to discuss the potential consequences of the order and the best methods of combating the fallout. Sierra Club Atlantic Chapter representative Roger Downs said last week the Sierra Club is “absolutely opposed” to the order. Downs said that the regulations currently in place are meant to preserve and improve public health and well-being — and the order will do no good in the long term. “We have a structure in place to review regulations and this is just a gift to business,” he said. Downs said he is worried that regulations which mandate reduced greenhouse gas
emissions and labor-friendly employment practices may be at risk. Meanwhile, the new measure has prompted several government watchdog organizations to question how open such a close-knit review committee will be. But governor ’s office spokesman Morgan Hook said Tuesday that such concerns are unfounded. He said Paterson supports many regulations and environmental groups have nothing to worry about. ”There are regulations that are necessary and are there for a reason,” he said. “Those regulations aren’t going anywhere.” The regulatory review committee is composed of five senior members of Paterson’s cabinet. His secretary Lawrence Schwartz, who regularly refers to himself the
governor’s enforcer, will chair it. The first round of the committees review process will delve into the inner functions of the Department of Environmental Conservation, the Department of Health, the Department of State, the Department of Taxation & Finance and the State Liquor Authority.
Hook said New York State has a stigma that has been driving businesses away for years, and this measure is the Governor’s attempt to change that. ”We’re hoping to make changes to the more outdated and burdensome regulations that have no place in a 21st century economy,” he said.
Katrina From page 1 Short pointed out that Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand sits on the Environment and Public Works committee and could be a key voice for change if urged by her constituents. “I just think it’s important that we remember and make sure this doesn’t happen again in America,” said Pfohl. Now persuing a degree in Environmental Law in Portland, Ore., Short said she hopes Adirondackers who view the film will connect with the appreciation for preserving a natural habitat, especially in an area with such a unique culture. “I think they can see a parallel in this presentation and how important these ecosystems can be,” she said.
