Officials praise response of lifeguards after man dies following ocean rescue By Terry Lane Staff Writer

A man who had died after being pulled from the ocean by Wrightsville Beach lifeguards on Saturday had only been underwater for a brief time, having collapsed while lifeguards were swimming out to assist him, town officials said. The fire chief and lifeguard captain both said that lifeguards responded quickly and followed protocol during the rescue, including performing rescue breaths while in the ocean and performing CPR for upwards of 45 minutes. On Wednesday, Wrightsville Beach police identified the victim as 55-year-old Bobby Lee Green Jr. of Salisbury, N.C. Lifeguards spotted Green as he struggled to swim back to

shore after swimming out past the wave break at about 11 a.m. on Saturday, Wrightsville Beach Ocean Rescue Capt. Jeremy Owens said. Lifeguards saw he was struggling against a rip current and were swimming out to rescue him when another lifeguard spotting him from shore with binoculars saw Green suddenly collapse, going face down in the water. Lifeguards reached Green a minute later and began performing emergency rescue breaths while in the water, he said. H a v i n g f a l l e n unconscious,Green became what lifeguards term a “passive victim,” requiring lifeguards to carry Green back to shore. Green weighed more than 200 pounds and required three lifeguards to swim him back through the surf,

Owens said. On the beach, lifeguards, firefighters and emergency medical responders did CPR on Green for 30 to 45 minutes, Owens said. Responders continued CPR on Green as he was moved from the beach to a nearby ambulance in the bed of a Wrightsville Beach Ocean Rescue truck. He was declared dead in the ambulance. Wrightsville Beach Fire Chief Glen Rogers said that while Green fell in distress in the water, other medical issues could have been the cause of death, with only the medical examiner being able to rule the death a drowning. The medical examiner’s report wasn’t available at press time. “We don’t know exactly what happened,” Owens said of the death, indicating that Green’s n See PASSIVE Page 3

As Wrightsville Beach emergency rescue responders perform CPR on Bobby Lee Green Jr., 55, of Salisbury, onlookers held hands, forming a prayer circle near the man and his family on Saturday, July 21. While Green was pronounced dead a few minutes later in the ambulance, officials praised the quick response of lifeguards, who along with other responders, performed CPR for nearly 45 minutes.

Captain Eddy Haneman Sailfish Tournament honors legacy, promotes charity By Dan Bullard Contributing Writer

The Captain Eddy Haneman Sailfish Tournament honors the late captain’s legacy and brings together local anglers for a charitable cause. Haneman is credited with establishing deep sea fishing in this area. In 1946, after serving in the United States Coast Guard, he moved to Wrightsville Beach with his wife. Every day he showed up to work in his uniform of a khaki shirt and pants with a tie and captain’s hat. A few years after Captain Haneman passed away, local fishermen Tripp Brice, Kit Taylor, and Jimmy Vass organized a sailfish tournament in his honor. Initially, the event began with a mission to promote a local fishery that Captain Haneman knew all too well. He spent decades catching fish off the coast of Wrightsville Beach,

and the tournament’s boundaries reflect upon Captain Haneman’s logs and notes regarding numerous sailfish hauls throughout the month of July. Beginning in 2000, the annual tournament has grown to become the biggest tournament on the beach comprised of local participants according to tournament organizer Tripp Brice. Each year organizers hand-pick an individual or a family in the community that is experiencing some type of hardship, and proceeds from the tournament are donated to provide financial support. “I don’t know of any other tournament like ours,” said Brice. “This event provides an opportunity for local fishermen to have some bragging rights, but most importantly do it for a good cause.” While monetary prizes are awarded for the number of

On the morning of Sunday, July 8, Wrightsville Beach Sea Turtle Project’s president and volunteer coordinator Nancy Fahey received a call from a Wrightsville Beach police officer. There was significant erosion on the beach strand between Johnnie Mercer’s Pier and Stone Street following that morning’s high tide, the officer said, and beachgoers had noticed what looked like sea turtle eggs washing out to the ocean. Fahey said she immediately

Hurricane forecasters with the National Weather Service predict anywhere between 10 and 16 storms for the Atlantic coast this year, according to a briefing presented earlier this month. Of those storms, forecaster predict 5 to 9 may reach hurricane strength, and 1 to 4 of those may be considered a major storm. “We are looking at a 75 percent chance of near or above normal activity this year,” said Steven Pfaff, Warning Coordination Meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Wilmington. The National Hurricane Center will extend the length of hurricane-force wind forecasts by 12 additional hours, now out to 48 hours. “We’ll be able to produce

headed to that area, where she discovered that two young people who had been on the beach were able to rescue 44 eggs. “That nest was somehow missed, which is unfortunate but can sometimes happen,” Fahey said. “For instance, if a turtle comes in during high tide, its tracks can be washed away. And when there are lots of big holes on the beach, one can look like another.” Fahey said the rescued eggs were relocated to a safe place on another part of the beach, and that they were “hoping for the best.” Following that event, Fahey

went home feeling down about the missed nest, which would have been the first sea turtle nest on Wrightsville Beach this year. The heartbreak would not last very long, however, as the very next morning, a nest was found on the north end. “[The discovery] came after such a big disappointment,” Fahey said. “But it’s part of the beauty of turtles. They’re give and take, and they remind you to not give up hope.” While the number of nests discovered is less than it was by this point last year, Fahey said that’s n See TURTLE Page 2

Beach last week, nearly halfway through with his plans to kayak from Maine to Texas, while also raising fund for Mission 22, an organization focused on veterans’ mental health and suicide prevention. “I don’t know what ‘quit’ means,” Mullin said. Following the setback last April, Mullin spent six months researching kayaks and continuing his training in Buzzard’s Bay, Mass. On May 5, 2018, Mullin began his journey again, this time with a kayak more suited for the long journey ahead. On July 17, he arrived in Wilmington, where he spent two nights before commencing his trip once again on the morning of July 19. Mullin grew up in Virginia Beach and served in the U.S. Navy. Following his military

service, he worked on one of the largest professional dive teams in the country doing underwater recovery for 20 years. In this job, Mullin helped recover bodies, vehicles, and evidence in homicide cases, through which he developed PTSD. Far too often, PTSD, among other causes, leads veterans to suicide, Mullin said. Twenty veterans commit suicide every day, one every 65 minutes. Mullin decided he needed to do something to help bring this number down, so he partnered with Mission 22 and committed to his own personal mission in order to raise awareness and support for this cause. “There’s a bond between veterans, you can’t explain it, you can’t break it. So, when the call goes out, we got to answer. I’m answering the call,” Mullin said Mission 22 is an organization started by combat veterans. They realized too many veterans were taking their own lives, and

not unusual for a number of reasons, including environmental factors such as nutrition and the cyclical nature of reproduction (turtles lay eggs every three to five years). “We have also noticed that during years of beach renourishment, we tend to see less nests,” Fahey said. The most recent round of beach renourishment, formally known as coastal storm damage reduction, was completed earlier this year. Wrightsville Beach is currently on

after one of its founders almost committed suicide, they came together and formed Mission 22. Mission 22 creates a community for veterans struggling with similar problems and provides resources for them in order to bring down the number of suicides. “We’re trained to be strong for ourselves and everybody around us and the perception that everybody has is that if you have PTSD you’re broken, so that shows up as a sign of weakness. We will never admit that we have a weakness; we’ll hide it. It takes a much stronger person to ask for help than to try and do it alone. The new analogy that I have is: you’re sent out on patrol and everything’s fine, then all of the sudden you’re in the thick of it. You’re depending on yourself, you’re depending on your buddies, but what else do you do? You call for support. Think of Mission 22 as your support. Call us. We’ve got

your six. If you have PTSD and you’re in the thick of it fighting your demons, you need support. Call us up,” Mullin said. Because hurricane season is kicking up, Mullin estimates that it will take him anywhere from eight months to a year for him to get from Wilmington to Houston, Texas. On the days that he is paddling, Mullin typically travels 20-40 miles within 6-8 hours, though he says depending on the weather, there are some days when he plans for 20 miles and only conquers 5. He carries 95 pounds worth of gear with him, including two stoves, 30 days worth of food, and solar panels, to name a few things. At night, Mullin camps on beaches, in nearby campgrounds, or stays in hotels near the water. To donate to Mission 22 and Joseph Mullin’s mission, visit aske2017.org.

The Saturday incident was another in a series of “passive victims” that lifeguards have brought to shore on Wrightsville Beach, Rogers said.. In June, a rookie lifeguard led the rescue of a 10-year-old boy who collapsed in the waves and was revived after the lifeguard performed emergency resuscitation on the child. And on Sunday, July 15, lifeguards pulled in a man in his 40s who had suffered a cervical spine injury, creating a passive victim who had to be immobilized. Wrightsville Beach lifeguards had undergone refresher CPR training on the previous Friday and several lifeguards were able to respond to the scene, Owens said. Ocean rescue officials will talk with the guards individually after a rescue and offer the support that they need, he said. “Everyone wants everyone

sudden collapse could have signaled another medical problem. “Sometimes you do everything right and it’s not the outcome you want.” Rogers said that two of the lifeguards who swam out to Green were among the most experienced on the squad, with one being the fastest swimmer. He said Wrightsville Beach Ocean Rescue director Dave Baker and Owens were both on scene to supervise the rescue. Owens and Both Rogers and Owens praised the response from lifeguards. “The guards did everything right,” Owens said. “They were on it. They saw that he was in trouble.” The death was another incident in what has been a busy summer season for lifeguards on Wrightsville Beach and across North Carolina. Two other swimmers also died last Saturday on North Carolina beaches, media reports indicate. And on July 11, while a tropical storm churned off the coast, Wrightsville Beach lifeguards made 72 rescues. This week, in response to the news of the death, a woman expressed her appreciation for Wrightsville Beach lifeguards in an email to members of the town’s board and ocean rescue staff. She said that after a lifeguard had warned her about the elevated rip current dangers on July 12, she was more vigilant in watching over her children, and later watched the same lifeguard make several runs into the water

Building upon the regular hoops sessions one of its officers has with local kids, the Wrightsville Beach Police Department will be hosting its first community youth basketball tournament this August. The tournament, coined Cops and Ballers, will be open to children aged 8 to 13, and give Wrightsville Beach police officers an opportunity to connect with the community. One of the organizers, officer Miguel Sixto, frequently plays basketball with kids to help open up new connections with the community, said officer Kassie Fuchs, the event’s co-organizer. “It’s a good opportunity to get out there and meet someone new,” Fuchs said. “Since [Officer Sixto] already gets out there and meets the kids through basketball, we thought that a department-led basketball tournament would benefit the community.” Each game will be half-court 3-on-3 style, and “participants will be assigned teams in order to ensure equality, to build teamwork skills, and to strengthen community by meeting someone new.” The tournament’s winning team will receive a prize, but all kids will be given goodie bags for participating. Due to time constraints, the police department will have to put a cap of participants at 50 children.

County Manager’s Message By Chris Coudriet New Hanover County Manager

Increasing Recycling, Reuse and Waste Reduction If you want to see innovation at work, take a tour around the New Hanover County landfill. You won’t just see a pile of trash; you’ll see one of the state’s most advanced integrated solid waste management systems that includes recycling, waste diversion and initiatives that target long-term sustainability. These programs are extending the life of the landfill, protecting the environment, and are much more cost effective than landfill expansion. The Environmental Management Department oversees recycling and solid waste for the county, and they operate as an enterprise fund. That means they operate like a business by generating their own revenue and they do not use any property or sales taxes that you may pay. Since Environmental Management Director Joe Suleyman joined our team over six years ago, I have been impressed with the innovative business model he has brought to New Hanover County. The department has implemented new programs to divert materials from the landfill and improve the environment, developed public/private partnerships that have led to increased exports and created jobs, and they are providing stability and predictability in our waste management program. As New Hanover County grows, so does our waste. Over the past four years, waste disposal has increased 10 percent each year. Our priority must be to prolong the life of the landfill as much as possible. And, as it stands with our diversion efforts, we will be able to extend the lifespan of the landfill from 90 years, where it was three years ago, to more than 180 years. Here’s a look at some of those innovative efforts that are increasing recycling, reuse, and waste reduction.

Food Waste Composting Program

The county’s food waste composting program is our newest waste diversion program. After more than a year of piloting the program using pre-consumer food waste from UNCW’s dining halls, it is open and free for residents to bring unpackaged food waste to the composter. Food waste and compostable material make up more than 50 percent of the landfill’s content, so this new program is a meaningful step towards reducing the amount of waste the county generates. The in-vessel system also provides a nutrient rich-compost the county is using at our parks and gardens, including the Arboretum and Airlie Gardens.

site-specific forecasts at an earlier time than we could have,” Mark Bacon, the severe weather program manager, explained. Storm Surge Watches and Warnings will move from experimental to operational this year and Surf Zone forecast will continue during tropical storms. “We will continue to provide briefings that will detail the timing and the degree of impacts that we feel will occur with these systems,” Pfaff said. “When there is an advisory, look at the arriving times and become familiar with the storm Sturges.” An El Nino effect is anticipated by forecasters later in 2018, which typically has an adverse effect on tropical cyclone activity in the Atlantic due to sinking air, strong wind shear, and warmer water temperatures. The pattern for the Atlantic coast has been roughly 30 years of warm water followed by roughly 30 years of cold water from 1880 to 2000 due to climate change. Subsequently, El Nino and La Nina have been balancing out hurricanes across the Atlantic coast. “El Nino typically makes the

Construction & Demolition Facility

Adjacent to the landfill, the automated Construction & Demolition Facility opened in July 2016 and diverts over 20,000 tons each year from landfill disposal. Ninety percent of construction and demolition debris is recyclable, including scrap wood and lumber, sheetrock, scrap metals, old appliances, asphalt roof shingles, concrete, brick, carpet and more. So, by diverting these materials, we minimize landfill deposits, recycle materials that can go back into the market to be used to make new products, and save haulers time and money because they can drive on a concrete pad at the facility rather than driving on the landfill.

Household Hazardous Waste Programs

In May 2013, the county opened its Household Hazardous Waste & Electronics Recycling Facility to provide residents with a free option to recycle household chemicals, oils, electronics, batteries and more. This permanent facility has been successful and kept nearly 650 tons of the most toxic, flammable, corrosive and reactive chemicals out of the landfill each year. In addition, a mobile collection unit, called the HazWagon, was created in January 2017 to give residents an easier and more convenient way to dispose of hazardous waste and electronics. The HazWagon is stationed at three different locations each week: Ogden Park on Mondays, Wrightsville Beach on Wednesdays, and Carolina Beach on Fridays. The HazWagon won an Achievement Award in 2017 from the National Association of Counties (NACo) for its innovation and the increased level of service it provides to residents. With its addition, the county is now diverting 875 tons of contaminants each year and keeping waste that can be harmful to our health and to the environment out of the landfill.

Recycling Facility

New Hanover County partnered with Sonoco Recycling to operate a Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) in July 2015. The facility processes recyclables from New Hanover, Pender and Brunswick counties, as well as the City of Wilmington, at about 25,000 tons per year. It is the only MRF in Southeastern North Carolina.

Atlantic hurricane season less active – sinking air and strong wind shear develops across the Atlantic,” said Tim Armstrong, tropical program manager at the NWS’s Wilmington office. “La Nina typically makes the Atlantic hurricane season more active – rising air and less wind shear develops across the Atlantic.” Hurricane season typically begins on July 1st annually

for the Atlantic coast, lasting through the end of November. Although, there was an early start this year with the formation of Subtropical Storm Alberto the last weekend of May. Tropical storm Chris skated past the Carolina coast some 200 miles offshore before strengthening to a Category 2 hurricane and moving northeast across the gulf stream.

Indo Jax Surf Camp gives surf experience to visual impaired Daja Terry Intern

Indo Jax held its 11th annual surf camp dedicated solely to visually impaired children for three days, ending on Thursday, July 19. The instructors got the children used to the feel of a surfboard on land before they took them to the waves, where they stayed at their sides, or had them on their backs until the kids were ready to take on the board alone. The surf camp is an extension of Indo Jax Surf Charities, which is

“committed to empowering disadvantaged, medically fragile and special needs children by exposing them to the ocean environment and teaching them to surf.” The event was held in memory of Anita Lathan, who passed on June 8 of this year. Lathan spent 30 years working with Services for the Blind in Butner, Raleigh and Wilmington, according to her obituary, and her favorite charity was Indo Jax Surf School, specifically for the visually impaired. The charity believes that “the ocean

and learning to surf has profound healing properties and can build self esteem in children with special needs,” and they provide the surf camps at no charge to the participants. They say that the children who participate in their surf program “inevitably move from a feeling of skepticism and reluctance around the ocean to empowerment and confidence.”
