Levee District manager says fuel agreement is “golden egg” for parish By Buster Avera, Contributing Writer

In the 1970s, the Lafourche Parish Police Jury made an agreement with the South Lafourche Levee District (SLLD) — the district would build, maintain and operate the pumps in the 10th Ward and the parish would pay for the fuel cost. Today, Parish President Jimmy Cantrelle wants to strengthen the agreement under a new written stipulation — the parish will continue to pay for fuel but can opt out after a 60-day notice. SLLD feels that would be an unfair deal. The history of the agreement and the parish’s new stance were the subject of much discussion at Monday’s SLLD public meeting in Galliano. SLLD General Manager Windell Curole says that the original agreement came about because of the parish’s unwillingness to take over the pumps after the levee district built them. “We asked the parish to build better pump stations and build them over the levee and the parish said they didn’t have the money or the time to do that. We went

and found some money and spent about 10 million dollars building new pump stations and increasing the pump capacity tremendously. It actually moved the drainage water much more efficiently,” said Curole in addressing the Council at an October 26, 2017 public meeting. Curole said the gist of the agreement is that the parish pays the fuel costs in return for the levee district maintaining the pumps. But Curole said he was notified by parish administration in September of last year that the parish would no longer pay for fuel. Public Works Director James Barnes admitted at the October meeting that he did call Curole to notify him that SLLD’s latest fuel bill would not be paid. But Parish President Jimmy Cantrelle back peddled at the same October meeting, admitting that he had temporarily reversed that decision and would pay the latest bill. But he also said a written agreement would be necessary going forward.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — A proposal to let Louisiana’s legislative auditor see people’s state income tax returns to check Medicaid eligibility sparked strong disagreements Wednesday among House lawmakers over whether the proposal unfairly targets the poor. Supporters, who are largely Republican, describe the proposal as an anti-fraud initiative, aimed at saving taxpayer dollars on a pricey health care program. Critics say the bill would be an improper use of private tax information that puts the data at risk, and Democrats said it vilifies low-income people. The proposal, backed by House GOP leaders and sponsored by Rep. Tony Bacala, started advancing Thursday, winning support from a divided House Health and Welfare Committee. The vote was 8-3, with Republicans in support and Democrats opposed. Bacala, a Prairieville Republican, said a legislatively created task force reviewing ways to combat Medicaid fraud and waste recommended the auditor compare the tax records against Medicaid eligibility decisions, to determine if people were improperly enrolled in the program.

The guest speaker was Project Director Christopher Pope, of Energy World. “The speaker is always somebody with strong oil and gas industry background or energy perspective,” SCIA Director Christy Naquin said. Energy World is investing $888 million to build an LNG plant in Port Fourchon. The project is estimated to be completed in 2021. “We are going to be taking local methane and making it very cold so that it condenses into liquid, which occupies a smaller capacity so you can take it on a ship and ship it economically to places that need gas,” Pope said. “It’s a chemical experiment on a very large scale.” This LNG project will bring employment opportunities for local communities and could bring economic opportunity through purchases from local suppliers, Pope said.

Letters and Opinions

Special thanks to our local fire department

On January 22nd, our mother, Felicia Layus, had a very bad fall at home resulting in multiple injuries. Because she had Alzheimer’s, she could not tell us where she was hurting. She was hospitalized for two weeks and in severe pain the entire time. On February 9th, she was sent to my house in Cut Off where Hospice took over her care. When the ambulance arrived, the driver said he would need help. He called the fire department. Four men were sent, and I might add, very quickly. Our concern was moving her with as little pain as possible. To get her to her room, the men had to carry her up three steps in the gurney. She was then gently moved to a transfer sheet and carried from the kitchen through the hall to her bedroom. I watched as she was brought in. The firemen were so gentle and took such care moving her, trying not to cause any pain. This was around 5 p.m. on February 9th. At 3 a.m. the following morning, our Momma died. The coroner’s office sent a vehicle to take Momma to the morgue. The gentleman was alone. He again called the fire department for help and a short time later they were back. With grace and dignity, a somber look on their faces, these public service professionals carried Momma ever so

gently out to the hearse. As I had done the afternoon before, I went out and thanked the four men. Though this task was a minimal one, these men properly and respectfully represented their departments profession and brotherhood. Aaron Billiot and Marty Gisclair came both times to help. Andi Orgeron, Lionel Guidry, Seth Griffin, Mary Gisclair and Gareth Authement came one time on either day. On April 28th, the tax for the fire department is up for renewal. Please take the time to go vote for this. We are very lucky in this area that our people approved this tax. Because of this, the fire department has better equipment and great trained firemen. These fine men don’t just put out fires, you’ll see them at every accident. They hold a “Open House” so the public can visit the firehouse. I personally had two of them come to my home and install smoke detectors at no charge. This is something that they do for our community. They visit our schools to help educate our children on what to do in case they are faced with a situation involving a fire. Firefighters possess a rare and unique trait. They are willing to make the ultimate sacrifice and put their life on the line for someone they may have never seen, met or even know. I close by saying thank you to our local fire department. God bless all of you! June Bagala Earline Coston Marilyn Lee Carolyn Robert

Medicaid From 1-A

“We really need to tighten this up,” Bacala said. The bill also would require the state health department to use tax return data to help determine if someone is eligible for Medicaid on the front end of the process — a provision expected to cost the agency money to hire new workers to do the tax data review. House Democratic leader Robert Johnson questioned why only Medicaid recipients were targeted for review. He said the state also should review the tax records and publicly disclose the companies that receive billions in tax breaks from the state. “I really don’t understand the spirit of this. It’s like we’re picking on poor people,” said Johnson, of Marksville. Rep. Dodie Horton, a Haughton Republican, said she didn’t understand why anyone would object to making sure Louisiana tax dollars were spent properly. She said taxpayers deserve to know “the dollars are going to the people who truly need it.” Horton rejected claims that the measure targeted the poor: “Poor people don’t have to cheat. They qualify” for Medicaid.

Rep. Katrina Jackson, a Monroe Democrat, said she’d support the bill if income tax data also was provided to the legislative auditor to cross-check eligibility for “other people who receive benefits from the state,” like recipients of TOPS college tuition aid and tax break programs. “I don’t want to single out people because they are indigent,” she said. The bill also will require review from the House budget committee before it can head to the full House for consideration. Bacala said Legislative Auditor Daryl Purpera’s office already can look at income tax data for other audits, but not for checking Medicaid eligibility. The revenue department suggested the tax returns alone wouldn’t be enough to properly determine if someone meets the eligibility standards for Medicaid. Jeff Reynolds, chief financial officer for the health department, said his agency has access to the tax records and eligibility workers determined several years ago that the data wasn’t valuable to conclude if a person met the requirements for Medicaid. Purpera said the tax data would give his agency “an additional tool” in its audits of the Medicaid program for lawmakers. A similar Bacala proposal won House support during the February special session as part of broader negotiations between Republicans and Democrats over tax proposals, but never won Senate passage once the tax talks collapsed. ___ House Bill 480: www.legis.la.gov Follow Melinda Deslatte on Twitter at http://twitter.com/melindadeslatte

SLLD

From 1-A

“I felt we need a memorandum of understanding (MOU) in place. We need to get one put in place,” said Cantrelle of his decision. But Curole said it should be clear and without any stipulation that the parish continues to pay for fuel because the taxes collected were dedicated to paying for drainage. “At the least, the fuel should be paid for by the taxes that are collected for that purpose,” said Curole, referring to the nearly 5 mills of property tax collected for drainage. Councilman Daniel Lorraine echoed Curole’s concern. “We’ve had a verbal agreement since 1979. The parish pays all fuel and repairs for the North Lafourche Levee District. Why not for the South? We should pay for maintenance, too. I suggest a CEA (cooperative endeavor agreement) with SLLD,” he said at Monday’s SLLD meeting. “I told Jimmy, how would you like it if they suddenly handed you a $2 million bill for pump station repair,” said Lorraine. Curole said SLLD’s philosophy has always been to spend money on hurricane protection. “We want to spend all of our money to keep hurricane storm surge from destroying this community. The more we spend on pumping, the less we spend on levees,” he said. Cantrelle’s MOU includes an amendment that SLLD agree that the parish can opt out of the deal to pay fuel pending a 60-day notice to the levee district. SLLD is not in agreement. SLLD attorney Ray

Collins said the levee district gets very little of the tax for drainage and that the fuel cost is “not even close” to the amount of taxes collected. “That’s been the rub the entire time. Windell’s gone and expressed that at a previous meeting but they keep coming back with it and we keep telling them we’re not gonna agree to it,” said Collins. In 2016, the parish collected about $2.99 million for drainage. In 2017 that figure was $2.5 million. The parish has budgeted $1.13 million in 2018. By comparison, the parish paid SLLD for 298,250 gallons of fuel in 2016, and Curole says they also reimbursed SLLD between $300,000-400,000 for fuel in 2017. In a letter to the Council last year, Curole listed other costs which SLLD incurs but the parish pays elsewhere. A total of $4,213,018 in pump and pump station repairs was paid for by SLLD from 2005 to 2017. SLLD also employs three men “who are fully responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of the pumps and pump station equipment. Their combined total salaries for 2016 was $286,598,” says Curole’s letter. “Look at it this way. It’s like magic. They (parish) just send the fuel and all of a sudden there’s drainage. You go to other parts of the parish, they’ve got to send the fuel, they’ve got to send the guys to build the pump stations, and they’ve got to send the guys to start the pumps and to maintain the pumps. Here, the goose lays the golden egg and you want to fry it and charge for giving you the golden egg,” said Curole.

Bidding up slightly in US offshore oil lease sale

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Oil and gas companies bid on about 1 percent of the Gulf of Mexico waterbottom offered in what the Trump administration has been calling the biggest offshore lease sale in U.S. history. The government says 33 companies made $124.8 million in high bids Wednesday on 148 offshore tracts. That’s up slightly from August, when 27 companies submitted $121.1 million in high bids on 90 tracts. That sale was the first since 1983 to offer all available Gulf acreage. It offered 73 million acres compared to Wednesday’s 77 million acres. The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management says 43 bids Wednesday were for tracts in shallow water less than 200 meters (218 yards) deep, up from about 10 in August. Regional director Michael Celata says royalty rates for such tracts were reduced very close to the August bidding deadline. ___

Harrah’s contract extension advances in Louisiana House

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Harrah’s contract to operate Louisiana’s landbased casino in New Orleans would be extended until 2054 under a proposal that has started advancing in the state House. In exchange for the 30-year contract extension, Harrah’s would agree to $350 million in upgrades to its casino facilities, building a second hotel and enlarging its entertainment space. The House criminal justice committee agreed to the proposal without objection Wednesday, sending it to the full House for debate. The House’s leaders — Republican Speaker Taylor Barras and topranking Democrat Walt Leger — presented the bill together, urging support of the measure as an economic development enhancement and job creator. Harrah’s $60 million annual payment to the state would remain in place.

Senate to debate ‘In God We Trust’ requirement for schools

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Louisiana public schools may soon be required to display “In God We Trust” in their buildings and teach students about the slogan. Sen. Regina Barrow’s proposal to put that requirement on the books passed a Senate education committee Thursday without objection. The Baton Rouge Democrat says the measure is intended to combat a “moral decay” in schools. There was little discussion of the legislation, beyond some senators praising the intent of the proposal. The bill now moves to the full Senate for debate. Senate Bill 224: www.legis.la.gov

ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 Aries, take some time to assess a situation before you act on gut instinct. Your initial reaction may not be the best way to go. Ask a trusted friend for advice. TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, when you get an idea in your head, it can take a monumental effort to persuade you to think otherwise. This week your ideas may need tweaking. GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 Stop planning for the immediate future and start thinking long-term, Gemini. This way you can relax as much as possible and enjoy the ride knowing all things are in order. CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 It is very easy to become complacent, Cancer. Just when you thought your week would be routine, things get stirred up in ways you never would have imagined. LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, if a career change has been on your mind, it may be better to dip a toe into the waters rather than jumping in all at once. Try an internship before making a commitment.

VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, it’s understandable that you want to prove yourself as capable as ever. But accepting a little help is not a sign of weakness. In fact, it is a sign of strength. LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Family matters push to the forefront, Libra. This may require all of your attention for the time being. Clear your schedule so you can give this the attention it deserves. SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 Overcoming challenges as they are presented to you is one of the things that makes you so successful. But even the best task master needs some rest and relaxation. SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 You may find yourself at the center of social occasions. If you want to be the life of the party, then go ahead. If you want to remain on the sidelines, that’s fine as well. CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 It’s not worth getting into an argument to win a point with someone who doesn’t have all of the facts. Rest your case and forge ahead with what you know is right.

AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 A change of direction may not be the right fit for you at this moment in time, Aquarius. If you have been pondering a move, you may want to devote more time to vetting the idea. PISCES – Feb 19/Mar 20 Splurge on something that you have been considering buying for a while, Pisces. As long as you can afford it, you can splurge without any guilt.

What a Life!

By: Rev. Wilmer L. Todd

Americans have to know how to deal with an increasing older population

America’s population is aging. The number of Americans ages 65-and-older will more than double from 46 million today to more than 98 million by 2060. By then, one in every four Americans will be in the 65-and-older age group. As Christians we have to know how to respond to this growing population, especially those with Dementia. Sr. Mary Kay Kinberger, MSC has written an article for Our Lady of Prompt Succor Nursing Home News Letter in Opelousas, Louisiana entitled, “Communication with Persons with Dementia.” The following is a shortened version. “Dementia is a progressive illness that, over time, will affect a person’s ability to remember and understand basic everyday facts, such as names, dates and places. It will gradually affect the way a person communicates and their ability to present rational ideas. “Some changes might include: difficulty in finding a word; the use of speech that does not make sense; an inability to understand what is being said; writing and reading skills that have deteriorated; loss of the normal conversational skills such as an increasing tendency to interrupt, ignore a speaker or fail to respond when spoken to; difficulty in expressing emotions appropriately. “While losing the ability to communicate can be frustrating and very difficult for people with Dementia, positive communication can help the person maintain their dignity and self-esteem. A caring attitude, use of appropriate body language and maintaining the right environment are all very important aspects of quality communication. “Meaningful communication with persons with Dementia requires patience, understanding and good listening skills. People with Dementia retain their feelings and emotions although they may not understand what we are saying. To assist them, be flexible and allow plenty of time

for a response. When appropriate, use touch to keep the persons attention and to express feelings of warmth and affection. Remember, communication is made up of three parts: “55% is body language that we give out by our facial expression, posture and gestures; “38% is the tone and pitch of our voice; “7% are the actual words we use. The strategies listed below may inspire better communications. “1. Avoid talking with the person in noisy areas that can overstimulate and confuse the person. “2. Always approach from the front; make eye contact and identify yourself. “3. Remain in the direct line of vision of the person. Touch an arm or shoulder gently to get or keep attention. Sustain

eye contact by sitting at eye level with the person. “4. Speak slowly and clearly using short simple sentences. Do not expect a quick response. “5. Give the person time to process the information. Sometimes it takes 20 seconds for a person with Dementia to process a simple statement. “6. If repeating statements is necessary, use the same words. Do not rephrase sentences or use different words. Do not give too much information in one sentence. “7. The tone of voice and facial expressions are more important than what we say. Use a soft tone of voice and a calm manner. Persons with Dementia are sensitive to body language as well as tone of voice even if they cannot understand what we are saying. “8. Avoid questions

that quiz the person on names of family members. “9. Avoid arguing; if the person says something that is not correct, let it be. “10. A person with
