HOUSING INFORMATION Compiled by USAG Fort Belvoir Public Affairs

Ask Your JAG: F

or something as important as buying or leasing a house, it is important to understand the implications of the contracts you’ll sign. The Fort Belvoir Legal Assistance Office offers free legal advice and consultation to Service members and their families, including buying a home, reviewing lease agreements, and unresolved housing disputes. Christopher Rydelek, Fort Belvoir’s chief of Legal Assistance Division, Office of the Staff Judge Advocate, offered some guidance on several housing questions submitted by the Belvoir Eagle:

If a Soldier has disagreements with a landlord, what should they do? The Soldier should try to negotiate with the landlord. Frequently, disagreements can be resolved by discussing the issue with the landlord. If not, the next best option is to come to the Fort Belvoir Legal Assistance Office. We can help guide clients through their legal options.

Can the Legal Assistance Office provide advice on military privatized housing? How far can that advice extend before Legal Assistance refers the resident to seek an attorney? We can provide in-office advice to clients who have issues involving on-post housing. At this point, litigation support is not routinely provided, but we are assessing that issue.

What are some of the most common housing issues the Legal Assistance office handles? We frequently see cases involving handling of

security deposits, and early termination of leases by military members due to PCS, TDY or receipt of orders to government housing. We also see cases involving HVAC or mold issues that may render the premises uninhabitable.

Is there a tenant’s Bill of Rights? Does it vary significantly from Virginia, D.C. or Maryland? Virginia, D.C. and Maryland all have laws that govern the landlord-tenant relationship. They do vary but, for the most part, they require landlords to perform certain duties to ensure residences are habitable. It is important Soldiers read and discuss a lease’s contents before it is signed, as the lease creates legal obligations between the parties that can be enforced in court. We can advise clients on the impact of such terms and conditions before the lease is actually signed.

by a judge. It is vital tenants document the condition of the property at the beginning and end of the tenancy. This can be done with photographs, and with joint inspections performed by the landlord and tenant. A careful documentation of the residence’s condition goes a long way to protecting the tenant upon termination of the tenancy, and resolving questions about the security deposit return. Appointments with the Legal Assistance Office are available Monday – Thursday 8 a.m.-3 p.m. Walk-in visits are available from 9 a.m.-2 p.m., Fridays. The Staff Judge Advocate offices are at 9990 Belvoir Drive, Bldg. 257. Contact the Legal Assistance Office at 703-805-2856.

If a tenant feels normal wear-andtear is being charged as ‘damage,’ is there recourse? Virginia law does not permit a landlord to charge a tenant for normal wear and tear to the premises. If the lease does not otherwise require the tenant to complete specific cleaning or other move-out requirements, the tenant is only responsible for damage to the property that exceeds ordinary use. Of course, there are many other costs the tenant may be responsible to pay, like unpaid rent and utilities. If the landlord and tenant disagree on the treatment of the security deposit, they can go to court to have the matter resolved

Healthy meals start with food safety By Kevin L. Robinson DeCA public affairs specialist

Every year, an estimated 48 million Americans get sick from foodborne illnesses, resulting in 3,000 deaths and nearly 130,000 hospitalizations, according to the Centers for Disease Control. In observance of Food Safety Education Month in September, the Defense Commissary Agency joins the CDC, the U.S. Department of Agriculture-Food Safety Inspection Service, the Department of Health and Human Services and other organizations to help prevent foodborne illnesses by increasing awareness of improperly handling food items. With so much at stake it takes everyone – producers, retailers and consumers alike – to help prevent foodborne illnesses, said Army Lt. Col. Angela M. Parham, director of DeCA’s Public Health and Safety.

contaminants,” Parham said. Bacteria and viruses are the leading causes of food poisoning, according to FoodSafety.gov, and there’s plenty that people can do to help protect themselves from them, Parham said. “As advocates of ‘Be Food Safe’ guidelines, we want commissary patrons to understand how they can reduce the risk of foodborne illnesses when they leave the store,” she said. “Just by washing your hands before, during and after handling food, you can help prevent a lot of problems.”

“Commissaries have military veterinarians and store food safety specialists inspecting food sources, deliveries and products on the shelves to help ensure they’re free of potential

The “Be Food Safe” message, is simple: clean, separate, cook and chill. For more on food safety awareness, go to the www. cdc.gov/foodsafety.

CLEAN n Wash hands with warm soapy water for 20 seconds before and after handling raw meat, poultry or seafood. n Wash utensils, cutting boards, dishes and countertops with hot soapy water after preparing each food item and before you go on to prepare the next item. n Food contact surfaces can be sanitized with a freshly made solution of 1 tablespoon of unscented, liquid chlorine bleach in 1 gallon of water.

SEPARATE n Separate raw meat, poultry and seafood from other foods in your grocery shopping cart and in your refrigerator. n If possible, use one cutting board for fresh produce and a separate one for raw meat, poultry and seafood. n Never place cooked food or foods that are eaten raw, like salads, on a plate that previously held raw meat, poultry or seafood.

COOK n Cook poultry to a safe minimum internal temperature of 165 Fahrenheit as measured with a food thermometer. n Use a food thermometer to ensure foods are cooked to a safe internal temperature. Use the following guidelines for cooking meat, poultry and seafood:

n 145°F for whole cuts of beef, pork, veal, and lamb (then allow the meat to rest for 3 minutes before carving or eating) n 160°F for ground meats, such as beef and pork n 165°F for all poultry, including ground chicken and turkey n 145°F for fresh ham (raw) n 145°F for fin fish or cook until flesh is opaque

CHILL n Chill food promptly and properly. Refrigerate or freeze perishables, prepared foods and leftovers within two hours (or one hour if temperatures are above 90 F). n Thaw frozen food safely in the refrigerator, in cold water, or in the microwave. Never thaw foods on the counter, because bacteria multiply quickly in the parts of the food that reach room temperature. n Bacteria can multiply rapidly if left at room temperature or in the “Danger Zone” between 40°F and 140°F.

HURRICANE SEASON IS HERE— stay prepared for safety By Rick Musselman Belvoir Eagle

eptember is National Preparedness Month, which is especially timely, considering the Bahamas got hit and Florida is still experiencing the effects from Hurricane Dorian, while the East Coast prepares for the peak of hurricane season. Fort Belvoir offers tips to stay safe if one of these highly unpredictable storms approaches the area.

Prepare Now  Know your area’s risk of hurricanes and sign up for your community’s warning system and the Emergency Alert System. A National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration weather radio also provides emergency alerts.  Practice going to a safe shelter for protection from high winds and flooding. Based on your location and community plans, make your own plans for evacuation or sheltering in place.  Become familiar with your evacuation zone, the route, and shelter locations.  Gather needed supplies for at least three days and keep in mind each person’s specific needs, including medication. Don’t forget pets’ needs and medicines.  Keep important documents in a safe place or create password-protected digital copies, and protect your property. A little preparation can go a long way in ensuring you and your family safely weathers a major storm.

Watching Locally Fortunately for the Belvoir community, the Directorate of Plans, Training, Mobilization and Security is constantly on alert for emergency de-

velopments and has a response plan ready to rapidly deploy. As of 5 p.m. Tuesday, Belvoir officials were tracking Dorian’s distance, speed and potential impact. The potential impact on this region is expected Friday, with heavy rain and strong winds. “The emergency management program uses coordinated resources from internal and external organizations to reduce the risk of emergencies impacting the community through prevention, protection initiatives and mitigation,” said

Darryl Conley, Belvoir DPTMS emergency manager. “(We) develop and maintain response and recovery team capabilities between garrison, mission partners and Fairfax County and we manage all natural, technological and humancaused hazards.” For more information, including downloadable emergency plan forms and recommendations before, during and after a hurricane, visit https://www.ready.gov/hurricanes.

AHEAD OF THE HURRICANE

BE SAFE AFTER

 Get a kit. Make a plan. Stay informed.

 Listen to authorities for information and special instructions.  Be careful during clean-up. Wear protective clothing and work with someone else.  Do not touch electrical equipment if it is wet or if you are standing in water. If it is safe to do so, turn off electricity at the main breaker or fuse box to prevent electric shock.  Avoid wading in flood water. Underground or downed power lines can also electrically charge the water.  Save phone calls for emergencies. Phone systems are often down or busy after a disaster. Use text messages or social media to communicate with family and friends.  Document any property damage with photographs. Contact your insurance company for assistance.

 Charge your cell phone and devices now, in case you lose power.  Determine how best to protect yourself from high winds and flooding.  Close storm shutters and stay away from windows.  Evacuate if told to and take refuge in a designated storm shelter or interior room.  Listen for emergency information and alerts.  Do not walk, swim, or drive through flood waters.  If you aren’t evacuating, let friends and family know where you are.

DLA puts Commander’s Cup out of nearest contender’s reach By Rick Musselman Sports Editor

efense Logistics Agency has clinched the FY19 Commander’s Cup trophy with two major events still remaining in this year’s title race. Heading into the back third of the season having already claimed the first-place trophies in racquetball and tennis; runner-up distinctions in basketball and volleyball; and third-place finishes in Formation Run, soccer and softball, DLA was sitting firmly at the top of the heap with 158 points. The nearest opponent to this powerhouse squad was the 249th Engineer Battalion, then carrying 122 points after taking first place in the Formation Run and varsity softball; second-place in flag football; and fielding enough athletes in each sport to earn consistent participation points. Despite standing as one of the most dedicated units on post in terms of determination and focus (and the solid performances across the spectrum of athletics that have resulted), the Engineers were still 36 points behind the defending champions. On the evening of Aug. 8 DLA showcased its athletic consistency and undeniable determination when its athletes won the FY19 intramural Rick Musselman bowling championship title for the third straight Photos year, by powering past DTRA second baseman, Rich Goad, drills one up the middle for a base Center for Army Analysis 2,851 pins to 2,622.

But on Aug. 15, the whole matter was rendered moot when DLA athletes dominated the fairways and greens of the Golf Club’s Gunston Course to win the intramural golf championship title. The unit wrapped up competition with a combined total of 202 strokes—20 better than runner-up, Office of the Chief Army Reserve (222 strokes).

#BeThere for MWR

Resilience Team Challenge

By Rick Musselman Sports Editor

o promote resilience and inspire the Army community to take on life’s obstacles, hurdles and disappointments as a team, Belvoir MWR hosts the #BeThere Resilience Team Challenge, a physical fitness event that pushes endurance, determination and will to the limits, Friday, starting at 6 a.m. at the track and Resilience Obstacle Course behind Graves Fitness Center. Teams of four will work together to conquer a 1,600-meter relay race, 22 push-ups and a circuit through the obstacle course. According to Charice Smith, Kawamura Human Performance Center fitness program specialist, this event—sponsored by MWR and Belvoir’s Army Substance Abuse Suicide Prevention Program, recognizes Suicide Prevention Month and aims to remind us that, when challenges are thrown our way, it’s time to rely on our battle buddies for support. “The overall aim of the event is to bring awareness to the community on the risk factors, warning signs and symptoms of a potential suicidal person,” Smith said. “It’s to provide educational awareness and resources for suicide prevention and to let individuals know their actions can potentially save a life.” Smith added that, so far, the event is promising to be a major success. “We have 17 teams registered for the event (as of Aug. 27),” she said. “We also encourage unit support for those who are not able to participate but would like to cheer on their battle buddies.” “We’ve partnered with MWR the last four years to host this event,” added Milagros “Millie” Frank, Belvoir Suicide Prevention Program manager, “and the theme is ‘Small Steps Save Lives, Make it Your Mission to #BeThere’ for your friends and family. The obstacles participants will face in the Challenge represent the ‘hiccups’ life throws at us, and the goal is to work as a team to overcome them.” The event is limited to the first 32 teams to register. If the maximum is not reached, teams may register on the day of the event as well, and prizes will be awarded to the top overall teams. For more information, call Millie Frank, 703-805-5529; Charice Smith, 703-806-4430, or visit https://belvoir.armymwr.com.
