Plover Recovery ‘Very Successful’

By Kitty Merrill

They’re pretty puny and are to the palate as poultry (taste like chicken, so the bumper stickers contend). They’re prey to a number of larger critters and each summer sunbathers pray they will hurry up and finish their mating and nesting and fledging, so the fences will come down.

This year is going to be a banner one for Piping Plovers, East Hampton Town Director of Natural Resources Kim Shaw informed. Fifty five plover chicks have fledged so far, with 73 expected altogether. There were 33 piping plover pairs nesting on the approximately 18 miles of beach managed by East Hampton Town, not counting additional beaches supervised by the state, US Fish & Wildlife, and Suffolk County.

According to Shaw, 2016 will conclude with more successful hatches and fledges than any other year. In Southampton, where stewards are overseeing 53 nests, but the numbers aren’t as promising as East Hampton’s, if recent years’

trends continue. Still, James Duryea who oversees the Southampton plover protection program for the town trustees deemed the season “very successful.”

Each South Fork town crafts an annual report detailing the work of its Threatened and Endangered Species Management and Protection Program.

A c c o r d i n g t o t h e 2 014 Southampton Town report, plovers laid a total of 161 eggs in 43 nesting attempts. Of the 161 eggs, 37.89 percent hatched and about half of them fledged. One hundred of the

161 didn’t hatch; predation was blamed for the bulk of the failures.

Going by the Latin name, Charadrius melodus, the Piping Plover has been federally protected since the mid-1980s. But it wasn’t until near the turn of the century, however, that plovers made news locally, thanks to beach closures and the presence of nests causing the cancellation of annual July Fourth fireworks shows.

Migratory shorebirds, plovers

breed on the beaches and begin arriving locally around mid-March.

Males build “scrapes” that eventually become nests. The scrapes are little more than depressions in the sand.

Though some are lavishly decorated with a ring of shells, they can also be constructed in unsafe spots on the beach, like at the shoreline.

Duryea noted that some 20 of the 53 nests on Southampton beaches

ONLY A FOOL WOULD MESS WITH THE PARENTS OF A GOLD STAR HERO There was Mrs. Trapani and Mrs. Cuteinella, and five or six others in my neighborhood. I passed their houses every day on my way to school and saw the symbol hanging in their windows: a simple Gold Star.

It said they had lost their son in the war. Those families never recovered from their loss. They were shattered forever.

In my family there was my father’s aunt, whose first name escapes me, but her last name was Mazzarella.

I went with my parents to her house in Maspeth, Queens, the day after she received a telegram from the War Department telling her that her son had been killed in action.

I was only six years old, but even today I can hear the wailing and the cries of the parents who had lost their darling boy.

“Figlio mio! Figlio mio!” they cried. “My son! My son!”

Their hearts were broken forever.

I thought of all this when I saw parents of fallen hero U.S. soldier

Capt. Humayun Khan exposing Donald Trump last week. They said Trump is unfit for the presidency, and I must say I agree with them.

Pakistan-born Khizr Khan, the father of the Muslim-American soldier killed in Iraq, said that if it were up to Trump, his son never would have been American or served in the military.

Then Mr. Kahn reached into his pocket, pulled out a copy of the Constitution and posed a question to Donald Trump: “Have you read the Constitution? What sacrifices have you made for this country?”

It was a deathblow to Trump – one that he will never recover from.

The last time I saw words cut down a man the same way was on June 9, 1954, during the ArmyMcCarthy Senate hearings.

The Army hired Boston lawyer Joseph Welch. When McCarthy, who was loud, cunning, reckless and in so many ways like Trump, charged that one of Welch’s attorneys had ties to a Communist organization,

Welch responded with the lines that ended McCarthy’s career: “Until this moment, Senator, I think I never really gauged your cruelty or your recklessness.”

When McCarthy, who was a street fighter much like Donald Trump, tried to continue his attack, Welch, in a soft voice, interrupted: “Let us not assassinate this lad further, Senator. You have done enough. Have you no sense of decency?”

Knockout.

In a few months, McCarthy’s immense national popularity disappeared.

Trump lost me, and a lot of people I respect, early on. Build a wall and throw 11 million people out of the country? Calling Hispanics rapists?

What kind of Nazi, Klu Klux Klan crap is that?

Want to read about a couple of immigrants Donald Trump would have thrown out of the country if he was around before World War II? Here’s the story of two of them – an Italian and a Mexican whose families probably first came to the United States as illegal immigrants.

John Basilone was one of a family of 10 children, born in Buffalo, New York, on November 4, 1916, to Italian parents. He was a United States Marine who was awarded the Medal of Honor for his actions at the Battle of Guadalcanal during World War II. He held off 3000 Japanese troops at Guadalcanal, after his 15-member unit was reduced to three men.

Basilone was killed in action on the first day of the battle of Iwo Jima, after which he was posthumously honored with the Navy Cross.

Private First Class David M.

IN THE NEWS

Gonzales (June 9, 1923 – April 25, 1945) was a United States Army soldier who was born in Mexico.

He was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor — the United States’ highest military decoration — for his heroic actions during World War II. On April 25, 1945, at age 22, PFC Gonzales was killed in action in the Philippines while, in the face of fierce enemy machine-gun fire, digging out and saving the lives of fellow soldiers who had been buried in a bomb explosion.

Think of these two, an Italian and a Mexican, and the many, many other men of every race and religion who were the children of immigrants – legal and illegal – whose bravery won them the Medal of Honor. They died so that anyone is free to run for the presidency, including that blowhard Donald Trump.

This is in no way an attempt to get those of you who plan to vote for Trump to change your minds.

From what I can see, for many of you there’s nothing that Trump can say or do to get you to think about what a disaster he would be as president, and how his term as president would destroy the Republican party and possible our wonderful country.

So vote for him. Just don’t, I beg you, give me that “I’m voting for him because I can’t vote for Hillary” line. That’s a cop-out. That’s bullcrap. If she and Bill Clinton are as guilty of everything you believe of her, she still would be a far better president than Donald Trump or our current disaster, Barack Obama.

We’re talking about the future of the country.

That’s why, for the first time in my life, I will be casting my vote as a good Republican, and a good American, for Hillary Clinton.

Beach Hut and deck at the popular beach. Some 20 fire departments were deployed to fight the windfed blaze, some staying on the scene through the night, handling hose run about a half-mile down the length of Dune Road. It took a

Within eight months, the Beach Hut was up and running, ready for

its 17th season. An elevated deck and boardwalk, smaller than the original, was rebuilt, and two free standing units that serve as the concession stand and restrooms, were sited in a depression behind the dunes next to the parking lot.

At a press conference heralding the swift fix in 2015, County Executive Steve Bellone touted the temporary buildings as a good investment for Suffolk, since the structures may be moved to other locations and re-used.

Doesn’t look like that’s going to happen any time soon.

Last month county officials admitted the $3 million reconstruction of the pavilion -originally estimated to be completed by next summer -- has been postponed. During a meeting of the legislature’s parks committee aides to Bellone said the temporary fix was well received by beachgoers. Last year, Cupsogue, one of the county’s two oceanfront parks, had its most profitable year, officials said.

The county, by contrast, did not.

Sales receipts for the first half of the year were half the estimated amount, adding a $26 million hole to the existing $186 million budget gap.

Still, said South Fork Legislator Bridget Fleming, “I am not ready to throw in the towel on the rebuilding. We have to be mindful of the county’s financial problems; they’re very real.”

But Cupsogue is a premier location, “a highly visible county park on a Hamptons Beach,” the lawmaker continued. She wants to take a look at ways the project could move forward. Making sure revenues meet expenses or giving thought to a public/private partnership were two ideas she mentioned. “A lot of number crunching has to happen,” Fleming said. “This is too important to turn our backs on without taking a very hard look at what we can do.”

Described by the legislator as “one of the jewels in [Suffolk’s] crown,” Cupsogue County Park is just shy of 300 acres and boasts almost a mile of ocean frontage.

plover was found in the tire tracks on Sammy’s Beach. The agents conducted an investigation and local officials were required to produce the bird’s corpse for analysis. They kept it in a Ziplock bag in the mini fridge in the supervisor’s office until the feds arrived. No one ever did get an answer as to why the plover crossed the road.

Locally stewards used to erect snowfence to keep people out of nesting areas. Recently a lot of the barriers are comprised of “symbolic fencing,” meaning string attached

When disaster strikes, the plucky puffballs simply start over, and will renest up to four times, with each subsequent nest producing fewer eggs than the one before. Predation by any number of animals will also prompt re-nesting, as will human interference.

Once a nest is established stewards in Southampton will erect a ten-foot diameter wire mesh enclosure to protect nesting birds from terrestrial and airborn predators – crows, ghost crabs, fox, possums, raccoons, and domestic dogs and cats like to eat them. In Southampton, officials close off beach driving access before the birds hatch to provide a 2000-meter buffer around nests.

startled, leaving the eggs to boil in the summer sun. Protected, eggs take about 27 days to hatch. Once hatched chicks are what’s known as “precocial,” meaning they feed themselves within 24 hours of hatching, and begin foraging for marine worms, insects and other invertebrates right away. They can fledge and be ready to fly in about three and a half weeks.

US Fish and Wildlife Service developed recovery criteria that must be met before the birds can be removed from the endangered and threatened list. There must be 2000 breeding pairs sustained over five years along the Atlantic Coast, with 575 of those pairs in the New York/New Jersey region, before delisting can occur. As of the most recent data New York has 342 nesting pairs.

Both Duryea and Shaw expect protective fencing to be taken down by the end of next week.

The Fight To Save Our Waterways

Independent / Courtesy East Hampton Town

Nitrogen is choking our bays and inlets, and aggressive action is needed to improve water quality.

By Rick Murphy

Our luck is running out.

Experts say our bays and inlets are in grave danger, and it’s been nothing short of a miracle that they haven’t turned sour already.

The signs of deteriorating water quality are everywhere, and a concerted, regional solution is finally being plotted. At least two East End towns are eyeing Community Preservation Funds to help manage the crippling costs involved.

Simply put, storm water runoff and substandard septic systems are pouring poison into our waters and our groundwater as well; pathogen

and bacteria levels often exceed the maximum load a body of water can bear. We are losing the battle to nitrogen pollution.

“The aquifer has reached its saturation point,” said Southampton Town Councilman John Bouvier.

The Towns of East Hampton and Southampton are both in the final stages of drafting a plan that would divert CPF money to the fight; ultimately, the matter will be put to the people on Election Day in November.

Suffolk County is on the verge of adopting its “Management of Innovative and Alternative Onsite Wastewater Treatment Systems.”

A WASTE WATER MANAGEMENT COMPANY

Hamptons Septic Services 631-267-7515 www.HamptonsSepticService.com

Dubbed Article 19, it is an ambitious plan to deal with an ever-worsening problem: On Friday, for example, the Suffolk County Department of Health Services issued an advisory against bathing at 62 beaches. The advisory is based on the potential that the presence of bacteria at levels that exceed New York State standards will impact these areas.

The SCDHS noted, “The beaches covered by the advisory are located in areas that are heavily influenced by storm water runoff from the surrounding watersheds and/or adjacent tributaries, and because of their location in an enclosed embayment, experience limited

tidal flushing.”

With the help of New York State and two foundations controlled by former NYC Mayor Mike Bloomberg the New York State Center For Clean Water Technology, championed by former Southampton Town Supervisor Anna Throne-Holst is designing alternate septic systems to replace those that are failing.

Both Throne-Holst, who is running for Congress, and her opponent, the incumbent Lee Zeldin, have pledged to aggressively seek significant federal aide for the cause.

Replacing substandard septic systems opens the door to a plethora of problems: who will bear the cost?

Where will the systems, many of which are located on the waterside of properties, be relocated to? What if there is no room on the parcel?

What if there is a drinking well nearby on the site?

“Our triage is cleaning up the water before it enters the harbors and bays,” said Kim Shaw the Director of the East Hampton Town Natural Resources Department.

“That often means thinking outside the box,” she added.

“In Lazy Point for example, we have a buyout program to restore the plain field. In Georgica residents have formed a group themselves.

They realize they have a problem and that’s a good thing.”

Large-scale municipal sewer systems are not on the table, at least not on the scale of larger towns and cities. “Sewer Systems CONTINUED ON B-3.

Bouvier reported that Southampton, like East Hampton, is drafting a water quality act that will incorporate the use of CPF funds (see article on page B-4). Ultimately, the people will have to approve it. Both plans allow up to 20 percent of CPF funds to be diverted toward clean water programs and technology.

The East Hampton plan is covered in detail elsewhere in this section. “[State Assemblyman] Fred Thiele gathered all the townships. We are sharing the data and we have the same recommendations,” Bouvier said.

He said that the worst-case scenario exists in waterfront communities with substandardsized lots and antiquated waterside septic systems. “In those cases we’re looking at small community systems that might provide relief to a handful or more properties,” he said.

Throne-Holst said the Center For Clean Water Technology is developing several models to replace traditional septic systems that are not working properly. She is also in favor of diverting a portion of CPF money to the project. “These systems will need in-ground testing,” she said.

Pilot installations of one system are underway at a test center, and scheduled to begin locally by early fall as part of the Suffolk County Department of Health Services demonstration program for innovate/alternative septic treatment systems “These simple systems comprised of sand and finely ground wood are demonstrating an ability to treat household wastewater as well or better than the most advanced wastewater treatment plants,” said Dr. Chris Gobler, Center Co-Director.

The use of CPF funds has already drawn some criticism, and future public hearings will likely bring more opposition. Shaw said she is focused on the water quality issue.

“The town board will have to deal with the political side of it.”

Airport Noise Committee Reforms

By Rick Murphy

The members of the former East Hampton Town-appointed Airport Planning Committee, Noise subcommittee have decided to reform as a citizens advisory group.

Their meetings will be public.

The first meeting was last week - the next meeting is August 13.

According to a press release, from January 2014 until April 2015, a committee of citizens appointed by the East Hampton Town Board, the Airport Planning Committee, noise sub-committee, met regularly.

Its mandate from the board was to offer a comprehensive set of proposals for all aspects of management of town-owned East Hampton Airport, including operations, safety, infrastructure, finances, and noise control.

All of its members were affiliated with one or another of the various civic organizations that have been engaged in the struggle to control airport noise. A separate subcommittee of airport users and businesses was given the identical charge. A sub-committee of the Business and Finance Advisory Committee was asked specifically to address airport finances.

The Noise subcommittee produced 14 sets of findings, including Final Noise Recommendations, which were submitted to the Town Board.

A few of the recommendations of the Airport Noise subcommittee were adopted by the town board and are reflected in its airport access restrictions. Most were not.

After adopting its airport access restrictions, the town board disbanded the Noise subcommittee.

“The town went through a thorough process and held one of the largest ever public hearings. All recommendations were reviewed,” said Larr y Cantwell, the East Hampton Town Supervisor.

Subcommittee member Kathy Cunningham, who also chairs the Quiet Skies Coalition, countered, “Unfortunately, the board did not appreciate that our proposals were mutually reinforcing and that by cherry-picking, as it did, the entire proposed structure of noise control would be weakened. We thought disbanding the Noise subcommittee was premature and said so at the time.” “ We reviewed many recommendations from many committees and individuals,” Cantwell related. The town instituted three restrictions, one of which – limiting noisy aircraft to one flight in and out per week, was not upheld in district court.

The town has appealed that ruling.

David Gruber, who chaired the Airport Noise subcommittee and is also counsel to the Committee to

Stop Airport Expansion, originally organized by Ed Gorman and Pat Trunzo III, said, “The town simply lacks the professional resources to manage anything as complex as the airport competently. It tries to fill the gap by retaining outside consultants, but even outside consultants require professional supervision, and the town does not have the capacity. The citizen advocates who have worked for years on these issues have the necessary knowledge and experience.”

Cantwell noted the committee is not sanctioned by the town. “They are free to organize and do what they want,” he said.

Pat Trunzo III, who as a Town Councilman oversaw the adoption of the 1989 Airport Master Plan, added, “This is part of a long tradition in East Hampton of citizens’ groups forming to address issues of urgent public concern.”

East Hampton Water Plan Would Be Funded By CPF

By Rick Murphy

An ambitious plan, part of a regional effort to improve water quality on the East End, will be the subject of a public hearing tomorrow in East Hampton.

As is the case in Southampton Town, the plan will eventually become law if it is improved by voters in November.

The Water Quality Improvement Plan (WQIP), a 65-page document, makes the case for diverting what could be as much as $152 million over the life of Community Preservation Fund, which recently was extended until 2050. The CPF is funded by a two percent surcharge on real estate deals.

Kim Shaw, the Director of the East Hampton Town Natural Resources

Department, acknowledged that there has been some criticism of shifting some of the focus of CPF away from land preservation.

One complaint is that some waterfront property owners are extremely wealthy, and others, especially on the north sides of the town, don’t have the financial resources needed to upgrade or move septic systems.

“We’ve talked about it,” she said “and we are trying to adjust to it.”

A rebate program based on income is a component of the plan.

Another lament is that East Hampton has been burned once: disgraced former town supervisor Bill McGintee raided the CPF to the tune of $30 million to make up for budget shortfalls, and taxpayers

had to repay the money.

Some critics also said it is worrisome that the town could hire connected individuals to administer the program and pay them with CPF monies.

However, of the projected $4.6 million to be made available annually “Only 2.4 percent will be needed for administrative needs,” Shaw said.

According to guidelines, projects eligible for CPF funding will include Wastewater Treatment Improvement Projects, Non-point source abatement and control program projects, aquatic habitat restoration programs, and pollution prevention projects.

Water quality, the WQIP states, is the “dominant issue of the decade” because it affects the real estate market, the livelihood of fishermen and other stakeholders, and the town’s economy. Storm water runoff and substandard septic systems are slowly poisoning our waterways (see cover story in this section). It is for these reasons that the focus of CPF must shift, the study states.

“The rationale is that land preservation was the dominating policy issue since the 1980s,” the WQIP states, but with over 2000 acres of land preserved there is a sense the town has neglected the health of its waterways.

The town conducted eight watershed studies to better understand the unique needs of each. Accobonac Harbor, Three Mile Harbor, Georgica Pond, Hook Pond, Northwest Creek, Lake Montauk, Fort Pond, and Napeague Harbor are all adversely affected by failing cesspools on their borders, for example. Those will have to be replaced, upgraded, or moved.

The town will provide a rebate program to entice homeowners and commercial businesses to upgrade and possibly allow for additional reimbursement based on income.

The public hearing is scheduled for 6:30 tomorrow evening at Town Hall as part of the regularly scheduled town board meeting.

Tuckahoe Road Hearing Tomorrow

Independent / Rick Murphy

Though Shinnecock Golf Club members say it is dangerous to play because of traffic on Tuckahoe Road, critics say there have been very few accidents reported there.

By Rick Murphy

Southampton Town Hall will be the scene of what promises to be a contentious meeting tomorrow pitting the Haves against the Have Nots.

The Shinnecock Golf Club wants to privatize a section of Tuckahoe Road that runs past the clubhouse and through a portion of the golf course.

The public road offers breathtaking vistas of the scenic

course and the bays beyond it.

Well-heeled club members are making an enticing offer: not only will Shinnecock pay to build an alternate road and the cost of the closure, it will provide cash to the Tuckahoe School District, which is in dire need of alternative sources of income and create a fund for the town’s use as well.

Barrett N. Pickett, the president of the club, put his cards on the table in advance of tomorrow’s

hearing, which is scheduled for 10 AM at Southampton Town Hall.

He wrote that when the golf course was built 90 years ago Tuckahoe Road “was a seldom used carriage road.” Traffic, he said, was “minimal to nonexistent.”

He said increased traffic coupled with a prohibition against eastbound traffic on Shrubland Road has caused a dangerous increase in traffic flow, compounded by the fact that golfers and their caddies cross the course at least six times during a single round of golf.

Pickett also said the town’s Comprehensive Plan calls for the relocation of the southernmost portion of Tuckahoe Road.

The plan of the table would create a new road running north of the railroad tracks by CR 39 it would run into an expanded St. Andrews Road and run north through a wooded patch on the golf course before reconnecting with Tuckahoe Road near Tuckahoe Lane and Sebonac Road. Pickett said the road actually exists on paper though it has never been built and it is called “Montrose Road.”

Southampton Town Highway Supervisor Alex Gregor is on record as opposing the move. He said the club has been angling to get the road condemned for quite some time and that he told a legal representative hired by the club more than five years ago that it wasn’t feasible.

Southampton Town Supervisor Jay Schneiderman said he was “open to a discussion.” Schneiderman said it might be possible to create a scenic overpass on an elevated portion of the yet-to-be-built road that would allow motorists to pull over and enjoy the vistas.

In addition to paying for the entire cost of relocating the road Pickett said Shinnecock membership are “prepared to create a substantial community investment fund to be allocated at the Board’s discretion” as well as a “special fund to benefit the Tuckahoe School District.”

Though bloggers and letter writers have been increasingly hostile to the proposal Pickett asked for “a fair and open-minded discussion.”

Who Chartered This Super Yacht?

King Baby, a new luxury yacht that sleeps 12, is docked at Long Wharf in Sag Harbor, and heads are craning to see exactly who is on it.

The sleek IAG 135, built in 2015, is 140-feet long and can travel 3000 nautical miles between fuelings.

Evan K Marshall is responsible for her beautiful exterior and interior design. Other amenities include an on-deck Jacuzzi, an 84-inch HD television, a Fender Stratocaster guitar dipped in chrome (one of only two in the world), and an elevator.

Pictures of rock stars like Keith Richard and Debbie Harry adorn the walls.

Mitchell Binder is said to be the driving force behind the creation of the vessel, which was recently featured in Yachting magazine. However, its owner, said to be a female, has remained anonymous.

“We had a client who demanded the best in a fun way. He was so enthusiastic to create something special,” Binder told Boat International.

FAA Ruling Leaves Congressman Fuming

By Rick Murphy

The mere mention of helicopter noise is enough to touch off a donnybrook nowadays, especially when it’s the Federal Aviation Administration doing the talking.

Last week the FAA extended the so-called Northern Route for helicopters coming into East Hampton Airport until 2020.

The route follows the North Shore coast over the water until the helicopters veer south over the Mattituck Inlet and part of Noyac into the airport in North Wainscott.

Congressman Lee Zeldin immediately blasted the FAA decision.

His opponent in November’s race for the Congressional seat, Anna Throne-Holst, immediately blasted Zeldin.

“The FA A’s announcement is an unacceptable example of incompetence and arrogance,” Zeldin charged.

“Congressman Lee Zeldin was completely ineffective at pushing the FAA to address the many issues currently recognized as major problems with the northern route,” Throne-Holst said.

Zeldin said the FA A, as is

sometimes the case, chose a low-key rollout for its decision, probably to escape the inevitable ire sure to surface on the East End. “After repeated follow up from myself, my office, the House Subcommittee on Aviation, other elected officials, and countless concerned citizens on the East End, the FAA has chosen to go radio silent and release this directive in secret as if the American public is the enemy,” Zeldin charged.

There have been dozens of proposals to mitigate the noise in recent years, and pilots have come into the airport from a variety of angles. The northern route has been in effect since 2012. The Eastern Region Helicopter Council has proposed what in essence is a plan to share the pain: send some of the helicopter traffic south from Northville through Jamesport, others down the current route, and open up a third, farther east, from Orient to Sag Harbor and on to the airport.

Some critics have called for an Atlantic route, over the ocean near the shore and north to the airport over Georgica.

“Routes are not the answer and

Congressman Lee Zeldin blasted the FAA for extending a North Fork helicopter route without more input from municipalities impacted by the noise.

never can be,” said longtime airport critic David Gruber. “They simply shift the noise pollution from one place to another. When the newly afflicted scream loud enough, they shift it somewhere else.”

Gruber is re-forming a disbanded airport noise committee and will begin meeting regularly with its members (that story is reported elsewhere in this section).

Zeldin questioned the legality of the extension, “This decision violates the Administrative Procedures Act, a federal law that requires transparency and a public comment period on any major regulatory decisions. The agency’s written explanation for this extension, including the justification for

its lack of public comment or notice, reaches a new level of tonedeafness,” he said.

“We do not allow unlimited pollution of other types merely because someone wants to engage in a polluting activity. That helicopter and seaplane noise should be tolerated for the trivial purpose of saving a handful of wealthy residents or visitors time commuting to East Hampton, to enjoy the peace they deny others, is absurd,” Gruber said.

Zeldin said he expects New York Senators Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand to urge the FAA to rescind the extension. Assemblyman Fred Thiele has already done so.

RICK’S SPACE Hot Enough Fer Ya? We’re in the midst of our annual hot streak.

It happens every summer – there are about 10 days in a row when it is 90 degrees or even hotter, and we all marvel at the heat and complain about it.

I’m not a hat guy. I understand some guys wear hats in the summer because it provides shade from the sun. I get that, but there is no excuse to wear a hat indoors.

I only bring this up because I was at a very hip party Saturday night with a lot of very successful 30-somethings, artists and people in the film industry. Most of the men had hats on, which surprised me.

Being the investigative reporter I am, I decided to get to the bottom of it.

“Jeez, that’s some hat,” I said to one fellow. “What is it?” “ I t ’ s c a l l e d a N o r t h Fa c e Horizon hat,” he said proudly. “It’s Australian.”

Who does this guy think he is, Crocodile Dundee? Turns out he was from the land down under – New Jersey. The only Australian I’ve seen around is Keith Urban, and he wears a cowboy hat and talks with a Western twang. Go figure.

More than a few of these Jim Dandy types wore what I would call a Fedora. These are considered hip because Justin Timberlake wears one. The problem with that logic is Kramer wore one on “Seinfeld” and he looked like a dork. In fact, he is a dork. What changed?

One guy had a “Beekeeper” on.

“You raise bees, eh?” I asked.

“Of course not,” he replied. He looked like John Book in Witness wherein Harrison Ford pretends he is Amish. The trouble was, he couldn’t stop himself from beating the crap out of people.

"Is that your horse and buggy outside?” I asked the guy earnestly.

He didn’t smile.

When we were little kids we

all wore Raccoon Hats like Davy Crockett. After awhile they started making them cheaper and cheaper until they looked like old, starved, dead cats. When I got my first one I was so excited I slept in it. That stopped when I caught my dog humping my head.

The only other hat I ever wore was a baseball cap. I loved my Yankees cap growing up but my mother used to make me take it off in the house claiming if I wore it indoors I would go bald. This, of course, was mere conjecture but it was a pretty good guess, because most men do in fact go bald. I still have my full head of hair, though, thank you. It’s the teeth I’m missing.

In high school I wore my uniform cap. Unfortunately, the school colors for St. Augustine Diocesan High School were purple and white, so I was the only idiot in Brooklyn with a purple baseball cap with “Lancers” written on it. I felt weird, like I was playing for a team of hairdressers from Greenwich Village.

Then an odd scenario began occurring: guys started wearing their baseball caps backwards.

Having played baseball at a high level (Jayvee) I can assure you that the beak is shaped the way it is to help ballplayers catch popups and fly balls. It’s there to shade the sun.

Once you turn the hat around you allow the sun to burn into your

eyeballs, though the nape of your neck is cool and comfortable.

In the fifties men used to wear hats religiously. Every man wore one, every day. (I know this because my grandma told me.) The men all looked exactly like Clark Kent. This is how dumb the creators of “Superman” were: they thought if they put a hat and glasses on Superman, people wouldn’t recognize him.

One day Superman went out with his costume on but left the hat and glasses on and someone said to him, “Hey Clark, why are you wearing your PJs to work?”

In the 1980s there was a lull. Most men didn’t wear hats, except for the Village People.

Then a guy walked in with a straw hat. “Hey Stubby Kaye, where’s your banjo!” I shouted out. Apparently no one knew who Stubby Kaye was (my grandma told me about him) and yes, by then I had a few drinks in me.

A guy at the party had a Navy Blue knit cap on and wore a hoodie.

It was 94 degrees out. He was making everyone sweat but he looked pretty cool.

That’s what it’s all about: keeping cool when things get hot. It’s not about what’s on your head, it’s about what’s in it.

Then And Now

By Laura Field

The Amagansett Life Saving and Coast Guard Station was built in 1902, and was one of many life saving stations that littered the coast of the East End. The building was left abandoned until 1966,

turned into a home, and then generously donated back to East Hampton Town for restoration. In 2011, the Restoration Committee raised funds to have a historic structure report done, and restoration began in 2012.

Help Wanted Web Manager

www.indyeastend.com

Every week The Independent showcases Then and Now photos to show the progress of the restoration, which is nearing completion. This week, the photos above show the west side doors from the early 1900’s compared to the restoration in February.

“The outside was the most difficult part to reconstruct because of the size of the installation of the boat room doors since they each weigh a couple hundred pounds,”

August 3, 2016

23

stated Chairman David Lys. The doors lead to the boat room, where they would store the life saving vessels. In an emergency, the doors would open and the boats would be rolled down a ramp and moved to the ocean.

When asked if there were any unique findings during reconstruction, Lys stated “We found an old shoe, a bottle of rum, cigarettes and signatures from original craftsman from 1901.”

They come in a plethora of colors including white, blue, pink, and purple, and dry beautifully, too.

Nicknamed “mopheads,” they were imported from Japan, China, and Europe in the 19th century.

Other variations include delicate lacecaps that have flat heads dotted with color and ringed with four-petaled florets, and panicle hydrangeas with white coneshaped flowers. There are also

Insight

As reported first in The Independent, the board of Windmill Village is evicting the East Hampton Food Pantry from space it’s been using for over 12 years. After our article, the Windmill board refused to meet with the pantry board. It was a done deal. The pantry’s got to adios by the end of the year.

A done deal, we hear, before the one Windmill member who voted against the eviction, Sharon Bacon, even learned of the move.

This week, according to a press release from the pantry board, the folks at Windmill want to use the community room and basement to build a gym.

A gym? Seriously?

Seniors on fixed incomes at Windmill Village actually use the food pantry. How many of them would use a gym – especially when they’re hungry – is a question mark.

Town leaders don’t have much leverage when it comes to trying to get the board to change its mind. They’ll surely put Windmill through a thorough planning process if the board moves forward with changing the use of their space from food storage and distribution to space for Pilates classes. And surely, they won’t be too amenable if manager Gerry Mooney comes looking for HUD money for a new elliptical.

There’s something more to the eviction than what’s been revealed so far. A letter from Windmill Board president Pat Bistrian references the overwhelming number of people using the pantry now, but that’s just one day a week. To mention wear and tear on the building when substantial renovations and repairs were undertaken by a food pantry donor seems a stretch.

So here’s an idea. Let’s ask the members of the Windmill Board to come forward and explain. They’re not answering phone calls, nor is Mooney. Below, find the names of the board members. If you know them, say hey, and ask them what’s up. Better still, ask, “How could you?”

Still Love The Beach

VOICES

Feedback Submitted. Readers of indyeastend.com reacted to Jerry’s July 27 column “A Walk On The (Yuck) Beach:”

Is it just me?

I still love the beach, but I’m with Jerry on “beach walks.” Is there anything more boring? I live only 10 minutes away from New York’s beautiful Long Beach, and have walked on every beach from Fire Island to The Hamptons; Malibu and Venice to Santa Monica; Daytona to Miami; Waikiki to Maui; you name ‘em - they’re all the same.

How times have changed.

We’ve gone from “A chicken in every pot,” to “A wife who’s very hot.”

Ed Gifford Sun, sand, and surf as the hospitality folks always say. Yes, walking along the beach with your toes in the water feels good for a few minutes. Yes, it’s cool to discover some strange and beautiful

seashell along the shore. Maybe even a sand dollar or starfish.

But walking on 120 degree, dry hot sand is not fun! and definitely not romantic.

Nicholas Brown If we have a woman president I think the feminist movement will take full swing and women will gain more equality. Hopefully things like the pay gap will close along with other inequalities. We can only hope that will happen.

Beach Walk

Quintin Soloviev She would definitely approach things differently than a man will. But I don’t think we’ll know how it will be different until we live through it.

Maybe there wouldn’t be as much military action with a woman president. That would be a good thing for everyone.

Hi Jerry. Now, more than ever, it’s time to take a beach walk! Our country is being divided by a corrupt political system that wants to divide and conquer. I say, you, me, and Alec Baldwin beach walk through the Piping plovers. It’s our only salvation!

Peace.

Bob kerr

Timothy McKay When the boys are president all the time they get to do more stuff than the girls. So maybe if a girl is president the other girls will get to do more things than they have up until now.

Jose Aguirre It will change a lot of things. It will show women that there are a lot of things they can do without having to be a man. My mom is a single mom and she doesn’t have the support of a man. I see her struggling but I also see that she has the strength to do so much.

But women like walks on the beach. In fact, women like walks anywhere. Holding hands and all that. No other purpose. No destination. Just walking, and walking, and walking, while I could have been just sitting on my ass on a nice cool blanket on the beach or in Central Park watching the endless parade of walkers and “showboaters” go by and come to me.

Now that entertainment!

Schumer wants to ensure the agency is doing absolutely everything it can to prevent future contaminationrelated food illnesses.

Schumer’s push comes following a recently released preliminary report conducted by the Office of Inspector General for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services which suggests that the FDA has taken far too long to initiate food recalls, therefore allowing potentially contaminated foods to remain on store shelves and putting the public’s safety at risk.

Just this week, 15 million pounds of flour was recalled due to a 21-State E. Coli outbreak. The outbreak began in December 2015 but the recall wasn’t issued until May 2016.

“Delays in getting bad food off store shelves is just a recipe for disaster,” said Senator Schumer.

• State Assemblyman Fred Thiele announced that he has been contacted by the NYS Department of Transportation on the status of the Route 114 project in East Hampton.

The NYSDOT confirmed that the repaving of Route 114 between Route 27 and Stephen Hands Path “is included in a current paving contract and this is scheduled to begin this construction season.”

Thiele, together with State Senator Ken LaValle, continue to also pursue the re-pavement of the remainder of Route 114.

• New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and Commissioner Basil Seggos are encouraging New Yorkers to participate in a survey for wild turkeys this summer.

“Citizen science” efforts such as this provide wildlife managers with invaluable data and give people the opportunity to partner with DEC to help monitor New York’s wildlife resources. Participants can record observations of turkeys while exploring the forests and fields around their home or driving through the State’s beautiful landscapes this summer. Visit the DEC website at www.dec.gov for sighting and survey information.

Independent Opinion

Repairing Our Infrastructure

By Lee Zeldin

In Congress, one of my top priorities has been to repair our infrastructure. Unfortunately, in our community, state and nation, much of our infrastructure is in need of additional support.

Our roads, overpasses, and bridges are essential to the Long I s l a n d e c o n o m y, w a y o f l i f e and safety, and as a member of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, I have been working on a bipartisan basis to ensure that states and local governments have the flexibility and resources necessary to strengthen our infrastructure and improve transportation safety, job creation, and our overall economy and quality of life.

Congress acted at the end of last year, after ten years of short term extensions, and passed a fully funded, five-year highway bill to provide critical long-term funding and certainty that allows for the planning of projects months and years into the future, as well as creating jobs for our transit workers, construction trades, and contractors. Included in the highway bill that passed the House and was signed into law was my bipartisan proposal, the Safe Bridges Act (H.R. 3168), that provides counties and municipalities with the funds needed to fix our region’s bridges and infrastructure by reforming federal highway law to make Long Island overpasses and bridges once again eligible for funding.

The Safe Bridges Act restores eligibility for critical federal funding for over 80 bridges and overpasses across the First Congressional District, and one of my top priorities this year has been to secure funding improvements for Long Island overpasses and bridges that were made eligible as a result of the Safe Bridges Act. Within the highway bill, I also fought to protect the Transportation Alternatives/Safe Routes to School program, which provides $835 million in funding to fix dangerous cracks in sidewalks, inadequate lighting, unsafe intersections, and to improve LIRR stations and walkability in Long Island’s downtowns, which is key to revitalizing the Long Island and tri-state area economy.

Overall, the highway and transit bill was one of the most significant bipartisan victories of the 114th Congress, strongly increasing flexibility for states and increasing transportation funding

to local governments to restore our infrastructure from the bottom up.

Since my first day in Congress 18 months ago, I’ve also been focused on breaking ground on new infrastructure improvement projects to strengthen our barrier beaches and waterways working with the Army Corps of Engineers.

The Corps just released their Draft General Reevaluation Report (GRR), which determines what projects will be included in the next phase of the Fire Island to Montauk Point (FIMP) Project, and contains $1.16 billion in funding for essential dredging and shoreline projects. When I came into office, this project was just over

half as large as it is now.

The plan also includes a variety of coastal and wetland restoration projects that will use the natural environment to reduce flooding, erosion, and storm damage, while also preserving the natural environment and habitat for wildlife. I have been fighting hard to secure the many victories coming to our area as a result of the draft GRR and will continue working to ensure that we witness a massive investment of our federal tax dollars being returned to our congressional district in a way never witnessed before.

To protect our infrastructure

August 3, 2016

and the safety of our roads, we must have sensible policies. Local control is key and a one-size fits all approach doesn’t work for every American community — that is why I fought against a controversial proposal that would have rerouted thousands of trucks from I-95 in Connecticut to our rural North Fork roads through the Cross Sound Ferry. Working directly with the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and U.S. Maritime Administration (MARAD), as well as our local community, this misguided trucking proposal was permanently removed from both the regional and federal transportation plans.

While passenger ferries are an important part of the Long Island transportation and tourism economy, this particular plan was ill advised, as it obviously failed to Continued on Page 36.

Aviators, Mustangs Tangle For Title

By Rick Murphy

Westhampton set a Hamptons Collegiate Baseball league record with 27 wins this season but don’t expect upstart Montauk to be impressed.

The two teams both won bestof-three semifinal contests and are competing for the league championship this week.

The Mustangs outslugged the North Fork Ospreys to move into the championship round, winning on the road 13-4 Saturday and finishing the job Sunday, 10-7.

Montauk was on fire Saturday, lacing a franchise record 22 hits and exploding for six second inning runs.

Ryan Markey singled, Bryce Packard tripled, Tyler Galazin roped a single to make the score 2-0. Later in the inning Phil Capra drilled a three-run triple and scored on double by Tom Brady.

Meanwhile, Montauk starting pitcher Bradley Case had his good stuff working, and Case, who had five regular season wins, can be a tough customer. On this day he went seven shutout innings, fanned nine and

walked only two batters.

Jamie Galazin and Capra each had four hits for the winners.

Sunday the Mustangs finished the job, knocking off the Ospreys, 10-7.

Once again the second inning proved fatal for the Ospreys and once again it was Montauk scoring six runs.

Packard doubled in a run and Jamie Galazin tripled him home.

Vani singled in another run and then Capra, who had tripled with the bases loaded in the second inning of Saturday’s game, topped himself: he drilled a grand slam home run.

The Ospreys launched several rallies and Montauk went to its excellent bullpen. Josh Walker relieved the starter Joseph Broderick and he hurled a scoreless eighth inning. Zach Barnes closed it out.

Capra finished the semifinal round batting 7-for-9 for the Mustangs with a home run and 8 RBI. The Mustangs scored 23 runs on 35 hits.

Westhampton eliminated the Riverhead Tomcats in two straight, winning a 2-1 nail biter Sunday after prevailing 5-1 a day earlier.

Independent / Courtesy HCBL

The Westhampton Aviators celebrate after knocking Riverhead out of the playoffs.

Reiss Knehr kept Riverhead at bay in the opener, going seven innings and yielding only five hits while striking out seven to earn the win.

Daniel Franchi had the key hit, a two

run blast; He finished the afternoon 2-2 with two runs scored.

Fantasy Players Question Hold Up

Fantasy Football players in New York State are getting nervous.

The NFL season is only five weeks away, and Governor Mario Cuomo has yet to sign a bill that would allow Daily Fantasy Sports to start up again.

torney general Eric Schneiderman outlawed DFS playing in March.

But the legislature pounded out an agreement with Draft Kings and Fan Duel, the two biggest DFS providers, to pave the way for a start-up.

The DFS sites reportedly agreed to pay a licensing fee based on gross revenue and to refrain from offering contests based on college sports.

Operators will also pay a portion of their taxed revenue, reportedly 15 percent.

The bill creates the Fantasy Sports Contests Division within the Financial Frauds And Consumer Protection Unit to promulgate regulations and license operators.

The governor has 10 days to sign the bill or veto it – once it reaches his desk. The problem, at least from the perspective of DFS players, is he hasn’t called for it yet.

According to the Albany Times Union, “The governor calls the bills he wishes to sign or veto to his desk intermittently throughout the summer, fall and early winter until the next legislative session begins. The practice offers the governor’s office to more thoroughly review bills.”

DFS has grown to be a $9 billion annual industry and football is its number one product. Draft Kings CEO Jason Robins said his company could be up and running in four hours once Cuomo gives the go-ahead.

Assembly Racing and Wagering Committee Chairman Gary Pretlow said there is no indication Cuomo is contemplating a veto. Pretlow pointed out Cuomo’s office helped craft some of the language contained in the final bill.

FANTASY SP

RTS

Quarterbacks Get No Respect No respect.

We’re not talking Rodney Dangerfield, we’re talking NFL quarterbacks.

They might not get respect, but like Rodney they do OK financially – a franchise quarterback commands upwards of $20 million a year. But as far as Fantasy Football, quarterbacks have become pariahs – it’s not unusual to draft your first quarterback in the ninth round or even later, which would have been heretical just a few years back.

In the Golden Age of quarterbacks a chosen few would put up big Fantasy numbers, which means a lot of yards and a lot of touchdown passes. Think Warren Moon and Dan Fouts back in the day, or Drew Brees, Tom Brady or Peyton Manning more recently.

Occasionally a quarterback would come around who could run the ball as well as throw, like Randall Cunningham, for example. That meant he could get you Fantasy points on the ground and in the air.

All of the above players would typically be chosen in the first or second round. Some would be the top overall pick. You’ll never see that happen again! Here’s why.

Two weeks ago we discussed how the NFL instituted rules to prevent wide receivers from getting blindsided. That meant defenders couldn’t hit them when they were defenseless, specifically in the air going for the ball.

Coupled with rules made a couple of years earlier that protect quarterbacks, the changes made it significantly easier to complete passes – and thus more and more passes are being thrown in the NFL. That makes receivers more valuable in relation to running backs. Oddly, though, it makes quarterbacks less important.

Fantasy teams start one OB and typically three wide receivers. There are only 10 or 12 teams in a Fantasy League, but there are a dozen or more really good quarterbacks!

Do the math. It is quite possible that the last quarterback chosen in a draft will have superior Fantasy numbers than almost all the QBs chosen ahead of him, so why the rush?

Last season Phil Rivers, ranked 16th going in, was second in passing yardage. Carson Palmer, ranked 12th, was fourth. Eli Manning, ranked 16th, was fifth. Blake Bortles, who was a third tier quarterback and was left undrafted in many leagues, was seventh. Ditto Kirk Cousins, who

finished 10th.

Let’s take a look at the upcoming season. Are there any quarterbacks worth going out on a limb for? In our opinion, only two: Cam Newton and Russell Wilson – that’s because both these players run with the ball and score touchdowns on the ground.

Are they first rounders? No! Don’t go there, although a scenario could develop wherein Newtown is worth a late first round pick depending on who goes ahead of him.

I’ve never had Aaron Rodgers in a league my entire life, and I’ve been in

www.indyeastend.com

a lot of leagues. Why? Other Fantasy players always seem to overvalue him. He’s a good, solid Fantasy QB and nothing more. Taking him in the first or second round means passing up a chance to get a really good receiver or running back.

I personally will grab Newton if he falls past the 20th overall pick, and Wilson a round or two later.

After that I wait. The beauty of this logic in that in a typical draft a lot of the other owners are waiting, too.

Ultimately, quarterbacks will start going. Still no rush. I got Tony Romo in Round 13 last year and when he’s healthy he can put up really good numbers.

There is one caveat: remember there are bye weeks, which means each NFL team gets a week off during the season. That means your quarterback will need another quarterback – make sure your second one has a different bye week than

THE BODY

August 3, 2016

35

your first QB. That said, there is no rush to pick up a backup. The bye weeks don’t start until season five and by then there will be QBs available on the waiver wire who you can plug in for one week.

Bottom line: use the early rounds to stock up on blue chip running backs and receivers. Forget Rodney.

Aviators

Continued from page 34.

Arnold gave up one run in 5 1/3 innings and Dominic Armas finished it off and earned the win. Franchi did it again, getting two more hits in as many at bats and driving in the critical run.

On The Water Snappers In The Inlets Shinnecock Bay The bay fluke bite has improved significantly over the past week.

Best bite has been up near Tiana Bay and the area near the commercial docks and marinas just to the west of the inlet. Best tide? Both tides have seen quality fish. Best bait? All the regular squid spearing combos along with the gulp baits. Snappers are in most small inlets and creeks along with most of the marinas.

Peconic Bay Not much new to report. Porgies still around Rogers Rock and just north of Cow Neck. Worms, clams both working. Clam chum to get’em under the boat. Some cocktail blues and snappers around the inlets.

Shinnecock Canal Fluke still holding in the canal with a few keepers. Trigger fish are along the walls and porgies are up at the north end. Snappers are starting to make a showing.

Most are small yet but some are decent size.

Ponquogue Bridge The floating dock on the south side continues to see fluke. Snappers should be lurking. Bass are falling for some clam baits. The bassing has significantly slowed with most fish of the schoolie size.

Ocean Beaches Not much new here. The jetties have also seen some bass and blues as well as some keeper size fluke.

Those who have chosen to dunk some clams or bunker during the day have had a few bass. The sand beaches to the east and west of the inlet are producing bass at night and blues during the day.

properly assess the North Fork’s road system, which is not equipped for the additional truck traffic, and was contrary to the goals of America’s Marine Highways. I also helped lead the effort in the House with a bipartisan coalition to defeat a proposal allowing longer and heavier trucks on our local roads, protecting our infrastructure and strengthening public safety.

E n s u r i n g N e w Yo r k ’ s transportation and infrastructure systems are strong for the millions who depend on it is a top priority and I will continue to lead the effort in the House to address our local transportation and infrastructure needs.

Coast Guard Auxiliary News

By Vincent Pica

Commodore, First District, Southern Region (D1SR) United States Coast Guard

Personal Locator Beacon: It Locates You When the perfectly calm day sneaks up on you while you are daydreaming and turns into a snarly, life-stealing beast, all your training rushes to the front of the screen.

But sometimes, all your skill isn’t going to get you home. And sometimes the boat itself is what betrays you as she threatens to slip away beneath you. You are going to be hard to find – unless you are sending a personal signal to the satellite who will call the USCG for you. This column is about that.

Trained In Saving Yourself The PPIRB (pea-purr-b) is a Personal EPIRB. This is what we now call a “PLB” or Personal Locator Beacon. You wear it on your person. It also has the builtin GPS. When you attain a coxswain rating in the USCG Auxiliary (the person responsible for the boat, the crew and the mission), the USCG gives you a PLB. “Even if you go hiking, take this with you. If you get lost, we’ve got too much

invested in you not to come get you!”

Be aware that there are private companies now that offer devices that can locate you while you are underway and offer rescue notification services. I have no fully formed opinion of them, pro or con, but if I am not registering myself and my device with NOAA, then I have to figure that my call for help has to pass through at least one additional set of hands.

The old model EPIRBs transmitted on dual frequencies of 121.5 and 243 megahertz (MHZ).

This was hopefully picked up by passing planes and satellites. It could take four to six hours for someone or something to pass overhead before it reached the USCG. Also, the footprint that you were within could be as much as 12 square nautical miles. That is a square that is 12nm long and 12nm miles wide. That is a lot of water to cover. On the USCG website, it says that the 121.5/243MHZ devices are “no longer recommended.”

The State Of The Art Interestingly, the 121.5MHZ frequency is favored for radio direction finding (RDF). So the newest EPIRBs now transmit simultaneously on 406MHZ and 121.5MHZ. The 406 reduces the footprint to 1 square nautical mile. And the 406MHZ is heard by satellites all over the world and, within an hour, the USCG RCC will have commenced coming to your aid.

Rescuers will also be looking for your EPIRB’s 121.5MHZ signal with their RDF gear. In heavy seas, that may very well be the difference between passing right by you while you are in the trough or knowing that you are just over the next wave.

But My Boat Has An EPIRB Good! I just hope you don’t fall off the boat . . . Or, as the tale below details, your EPIRB battery, which you dutifully replaced (as I just did!) by shipping it to the lowest-cost provider of battery replacement services that could be found on the internet, doesn’t fail at the time that it is most needed – as you grab it in an abandon ship scenario.

Ocean Navigator, 3/16/2010 I read everything about the sea that I can get my hands on – hard copy, electronic, notes in bottles.

Back in 2010, Ocean Navigator magazine published a story by Fredrick Gary Hareland about this same subject and I saved it as an object lesson. Hareland recounted in his story the following about the crew of a 57’ vessel making way from Hong Kong to Phuket when disaster struck: “In closing, I must inform you that our crew and passengers on board that 57 footer were all rescued thanks to the master’s back-up PLB. Turns out the EPIRB failed to deploy, but that little handheld PLB got the alert through and the victims are toasting it and each other while retelling their recent adventure.”

Redundancy will look ver y cheap and very smart, if/as/when . . . and they fit in your pocket.

BT W, if you are interested in being part of USCG Forces, email me at JoinUSCGAux@aol.com or go directly to the D1SR Human Resources department, which is in charge of new members matters, at DSO-HR and we will help you “get in this thing.”
