CalaverasAnimalDisaster Shelter

Volunteers stress importance of preparedness By LYDIA BROWNING The Union Democrat

When disasters happen in Calaveras County, shelters will open for people who must evacuate their homes. But pets, that's another story.

Often, pet owners won' t even consider leaving their animals behind. Red Cross shelters do not allow animals, with the exception of service animals. Animal owners are left with the choice of finding temporarysheltersfor their animals or abandoning them altogether. That's where Calaveras Animal D i saster S helter comes in. Th e v olunteer group is associated with Animal Services. During a disaster,the group helps locate shelters for animals near where their owners are being housed, said Jeane Kennedy, public information officer for CADS. These shelters will be equippedwith emergency

During the 2013 Rim Fire, animals were kept at the Tuolumne County Sheriff's Posse Grounds in Jamestown. Posse member Rich Kirchner (above) leads a horse around the grounds during Rim Fire animal evacuation. Volunteers help maintain the corrals at the Posse grounds (below) during the Rim Fire. The Calaveras Animal Disaster Shelter aims to help shelter animals during future disasters.

appropriate tools, safety items for vehicles and trailersfortransportation. "It could be helpful to take smallerpets for quick rides in vehicles to help them adjust to travelling," Kennedy said. "During e v acuations and emergencies, people and animals are already under stress without the hassle of trying to calm down an already uncomfortable pet." People with farms can better preparefor disasters by installing fire extinguishers, sprinkler systems, smoke detectors, enforcing no-smoking policies, making sure wiring in buildings is safe and by communicating with l ocal fire departments for further safetysuggestions. CADS has about 10 regular membersand another 10 on call in case of emergency. Volunteers are needed, even if they can give only a few hours, Kennedy said. Another goal CADS has is to generatea database oflo-

"Short of action that effectivelyaddresses the primary cause of diminishing sea ice, it is unlikely that polar bears will be recovered." Halting Arctic warming will require a global commitment, said Jenifer Kohout, the Fish and Wildlife Service's regional program manager and a co-chair of the polar bear recovery team. "In the meantime, the Fish and Wildlife Service and its partners are committed to doing everything within our controlto give the bears a chance to survive while

A small editorial note about a big topic locally: Childhood vaccination. California on Tuesday became the third state to require children entering school have basic childhood vaccinations. A bill signed into law by Gov. Jerry Brown takes effect next year and is billed as the nation's toughest because it allows exemptions for only verified medical conditions. It does away with "personal belief exemptions" often cited by parents who don't want their child vaccinated (a very few actually object to vaccines on religious grounds; most PBEs are sought by parents suspicious of government and those still clinging to a debunked 1998 "study" linking vaccines to autism.) The new law is certain to rattle more than a few par-

ents in Tuolumne and Calaveras counties.

This is because our two mountain counties are near the bottom in the state in terms of the number of vaccinated children, and rank high in the number of parents seeking PBEs. State Department of Public Health figures show just 77.49 percent of kindergartners in Tuolumne County have gotten all the standard vaccinations — measles, mumps, rubella; diphtheria, tetanus and pertussisranking Tuolumne third from the bottom among the state's58 counties.

In Calaveras, the number of vaccinated kindergartners is slightly higher — 81.62 percent. That ranks it fifth from the bottom. The average vaccination rate statewide for kindergartners is 90.4 percent. As noted before on this page, personal belief exemptions account for a large share of counties' vaccine holdouts. More than 7 percent of Tuolumne County students' parents claimed such an exemption. In Calaveras Coun-

ty, the figure is 8.33 percent. Statewide, the percentage of those seeking PBEs is 2.5. Why should society have a say in what could be argued is an individual decision? Because the decision to not vaccinate doesn't stop with an individual any more than a personal decision to run a stoplight in a busy intersection. Not being vaccinated puts other people at risk — often society's weakest members. Those at greatest risk of infection and complications are those with weakened immune systems, the elderly, and children too young to have gotten their shots. Even healthy people who have been vaccinated can become infected. For example, of the 147 people nationwide sickened in this past winter-spring outbreak of measles, a half dozen had been vaccinated against the disease in the past. (For reasons not entirely clear, about 3 percent of people vaccinated for measles do not gain immunity). While, thankfully, no one died in the outbreak, that was purely a numbers game. Measles has a mortality rate of about 1 in 1,000. Those who did live, however, could face future complications, such as permanent hearing loss and a risk — albeit small — of debilitating brain infiammation called "subacute sclerosing panencephalitis" which can emerge up to a decade after measles infection. The fact of the matter is, vaccination not only protects individuals from dreadful or potentially deadly diseases, it protects society by checking viruses' ability to move through the population where the most vulnerable members of society are atgreatest risk. A bitter pill to swallow for a few individuals, California's new law is right for society. Note: Thelaw applies to private as well as public schools, and alsoday cares.People who choose to not vaccinate their

children still have the option of home schooling.

gations and schools. Corporate partners include MORE and its parent company, Meredith Corporation, a media and marketing conglomerate that seems to have conquered the female market, reaching more than 100 million women and 63 percent of U.S. millennial women. At the same time, Obama is leaning on other developed countries to join the U.S. effort. The United Kingdom and Japan are thus far on board. But she also wants to bring the message of "Let Girls Learn" to young people in this country. "Because I want kids here in the U.S. to know about these girls around the world, and I want them to be inspired by their passion and determination, to reignite that hunger in our kids here." Amen to that. Keeping our own kids in school is challenge enough, if for wholly different reasons. Whereas girls elsewhere sometimes risk their lives to go to school, our youth tend to drop out from boredom, lack of support at home — or even a failure to see the point of an education. Perhaps it would help them to see girls in classrooms in Africa, as Obama described them — gathered in bare concrete rooms with little more than a chalkboard and rickety desks. "And they' re thrilled to be there." These girls don't need motivation; they' re ready, says Obama. What they need are desks, supplies, mentors, support from other nations — and safety. Having the U.S. lead this initiative is a giant step for girls in need, as well as for our first lady, who seems to have found her voice and her own power to change the world.

Senate: Ambassador to Cuba unlikely WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Thursday that his chamber is unlikely to approve an American ambassador to Cuba, dishing out a quick rebuff to President Barack Obama and his drive to normalize relations with the U.S. neighbor and longtime Cold War foe. The Kentucky Republican also suggested that the GOP — which controls Congress — would fight Obama administration efforts to fully le trade and travel restrictions that have limited American commerce and tourism with the communist-led island nation. McConnell said the country was led by "a thuggish regime." The comments by McConnell came a day afterObama and Cuban President Raul Castro announced that the two nations will open embassies in Havana and Washington July 20 and resume

diplomatic relations severed in 1961, the year Obama was born. McConnell's remarks underscored that despite a push to ease the curbs by U.S. business and agriculture interests and some GOP lawmakers, Republican leaders remain sympathetic to the party'smore conservative, anti-Castro voices. House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, and several contenders for the GOP's 2016 presidential nomination criticized Obama's moves shortly after they were announced Wednesday. "You would think that the normalization of relations with Cuba would be accompanied by some modification of their behavior," McConnell said Thursday at Commerce Lexington, the chamber of commerce for Lexington, Kentucky. Instead, he called the country "a police state" and "a haven for criminals" wanted in the U.S.

"I don't see any evidence at all that they are going to change their behavior. So I doubt if weal confirm an ambassador,they probably don'tneed one,"Mc Connell said. He added, "Some of their restrictions on Cuba would require legislation to le, and we' re going to resist that." Though Obama has notnominated an ambassador for Cuba yet, the current top U.S. diplomat there, Jeffrey DeLaurentis, was expected to be considered for the post. Labeling the moment "a choice between the future and the past," Obama on Wednesday revealed the latest steps in a half-year of rapid-fire im-

provements in relations between two nations that lie 90 miles apart but have spent nearly six decades separated by light years diplomatically and economically.

Woman shot to death Us unemployment falls at San Francisco pier to 7-year low, wages flat SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A young woman was shot to death, apparently at random, while walking with her father and a friend along a popular pedestrian pier on the San Francisco water-

Two t elevision n e ws crews reporting on the killing were later mugged at the scene, with a masked gunman pistol-whipping a camera operator. The robber took cameras from KNTV and KTVU before he jumped into a black BMW and fled. Police arrested Francisco Sanchez about an hour after the shooting. Authorities said he does not yet have a lawyer. Police Sgt. Michael Andraychak said w itnesses snapped photos of Sanchez immediately after the shooting and the images helped police make the arrest while he was walking on a sidewalk a few blocks away. Police were still waiting for fingerprint identification on Sanchez, who is believed to a 45-year-old whose last address was in Texas.

The woman was shot Wednesday evening at Pier 14 and died at a hospital. Police did not release her name, but she was identified as Kathryn Steinle, 32, by the San Francisco Chronicle.

WASHINGTON (AP)U.S. unemployment fell to a seven-year low of 5.3 percent and employers hired at a solid pace in June, but other gauges of the job market drew a bleaker picture: A wave of people stopped looking for work, and paychecks failed to budge. The figures released Thursday capturethe persistently uneven nature of the remery from the Great Recession. The job market "remains consistent with a two-stepsforward, one-step-back expansion the U.S. economy finds itself in," said Scott Andersen, chief economist at Bank of the West. The economy g ained 223,000 jobs last month, and unemploymentedged down from 5.5 percent in May, the Labor Department reported. That is the lowest jobless rate since April 2008, when it was 5 percent. It eventually soared to 10 percent in late2009 after the recession

The overall plan is intendedto serve as a guide for land planning and development through 2040.

"It really begins to start turning our forest management practices back to those scientific principles that maintain a healthy forest and also a healthy economy," McClintock said. Patrick Storey, of Copperopolis, asked what the congressman was doing to combat controversial pulse flows. The flows are a topic of debate in the area because they require dam operators on the Stanislaus River to release additionalwater from reservoirseach spring and fall to encourage the migration of native fish species. In May, McClintock successfully added an amendment to the federal water and energy appropriations bill that would block federal agencies from using public funds to purchase water for such flows. McClintock also introduced legislation in March called the Save Our Water Act that would prevent federal agencies &om releasing water &om reservoirsduring times ofdrought to adjust river temperatures for fish.

The 24-page document details a number of long-term policies related to water stewardship that are more expansive than in the past, such as: • seeking access to additional supplies t hrough agreements with water-rights holders; • incentivizing rainwater harvestingand storage projectsthrough potentialfee reductions to developers, and; • adapting in&astructure to changing regulatory and climate conditions that could impact water availability in the county. Rodefer said one of the purposesof the process is to get the various public entities working toward the same goal — a reliable water supply forall county residents long into the future. Committee members in at-

Supervisors voted to revive

the long-dormant Tuolumne County Water Agency and form the special committee to advise county leaders on water issues and policies. 'The board's interest in re-establishing th e w a ter agency led to developing the water element, which also highlights those issues," said Community Resources Agency Director Bev Shane, whose sta6' is heading up the General Plan update. As the state entered a third-yearofdrought in 2014, Shane said the addition of a section focused on water to the General Plan became a priority. The drought's effects are still being felt throughout the county into the fourth year, with more than 200 residents reportedly experiencing issues with failing wells. Shane said the county's Environmental Health Department last week delivered a total of about 4,000 pounds of bottledwater to some of those residentswho are still

waiting for a temporary water tank or connection to a

public water system through a statewide assistance prograin.

"We don't provide water, but have a role in overseeing groundwater and ensuring citizens have adequate water now and into the future," she said of the county government. 'That ties back into the

NBA Stauskas, Thompson, Landry to 76ers The Sacramento Kings have agreed to send Nik Stauskas, Jason Thompson and Carl Landry to the Philadelphia 76ers as part of a salary-shedd ing mo v e to pur s u e &ee agents, a person with knowledge of the trade told The Associated Press on Wednesday night. The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because trades can't be completed until July 9. It wasn't immediately clear who the Kings were receiving in return or if draft picks were involved. Yahoo Sports firstre-

ported the trade. Stauskas thanked the Kings and their fans on his Twitter page and wrote that he was excited to start a new chapter of his career in Philadelphia. He struggled after being drafted by the Kings eighth overall lastyear,but it was a difficult season for any rookie as the team fired two

coaches and had a &ontoffice shake-up. Thompson just completed his seventh season and was Sacramento's longesttenured player, having appeared in a franchiserecord 541 games. Landry, an eight-year veteran, has battled injuries since coming to Sacramento two years ago. The move clears more than $16 million in salary cap space for the Kings next season. Stauskas is owed $2.8 million next season, Landry $6.5 million and Thompson $6.4 million. Sacramento has been pursuing free-agent guards Rajon Rondo, Wesley Matthews and Monta Ellis, among others, to join DeMarcus Cousins and Rudy Gay. Now they have space to add possibly two of those players.

While Thompson has long wanted out of Sacramento and Landry has had trouble staying on the court, parting ways with Stauskas after just one season surely stings. Stauskas averaged 4.4 points while shooting 36.5 percent &om the floor and never showed signs of transitioning to the NBA after a stellar career at Michigan. The Kings didn't do much to help Stauskas succeed, either. They fired Michael Malone after an 11-13 start, dismissed Tyrone Corbin after he went 7-21 and then hired George Karl, who is still trying to win over Cousins and the

Chargers Gates;Jets Ri chardsonsuspened 4 games SAN DIEGO (AP) — Antonio Gates' squeaky-clean image took a big hit Thursday when the San Diego Chargers' star tight end was suspended without pay for the first four games of the 2015 seasonfor violating the NFL's policy on performanceenhancing substances. The NFL said in a statement that Gates can participate in training camp and exhibition games. He will be able to return to the active rosteron Oct. 5,a day after the Chargers' game against the Cleveland Browns. One of the NFL's top tight ends for more than a decade, Gates has had a Hall of Famecaliber career after joining the Chargers as an undrafted rookie in 2003 following a collegebasketballcareer. He issued a s t atement through the team apologizing to the Chargers, his coaches, his teammates and the fans. "In my 12 years in the NFL, I have taken tremendous pride in upholding the integrity of the NFL shield and all that it entails," Gates said. "I have taken extreme care of my body with a holistic approach and never taken any

Richardson suspended first4 gamesofseason NEW YORK (AP) — New York Jets defensive lineman Sheldon Richardson has been suspended without pay for the first four games of the regular season on Thursday for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy. Richardson will be eligible to return to the Jets' active roster on Monday, Oct. 5 after the team's Oct. 4 game against the AFC East rival Miami Dolphins. "I apologize for l etting down my family, teammates, this organization and the fans," Richardson said in a statement.

"However, words aren' t enough. This is something

that can only be addressed by how I handle myself from this point on. I don't want this to take away from what the team is trying to accomplish. While I won't be there at the start of the regular season, I will do whatever I can to support my teammates until I'm able to return to the field." Richardson is eligible to participate in all offseason and preseason practices and games. The Jets do have depth on their defensive line, with defensive end Muhammad Wilkerson, nose tackle Damon Harrison and firstround pick Leonard Williams. Richardson is entering his third NFL season. He was the AP Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2013. Richardson has been mostly a starter since that year and was expectedto be a major part of new coach Todd Bowles' defense. " This i s disappointing for Sheldon and the team," Bowles said in a statement. oWe're going to support Sheldon and welcome him back upon his return. We will keep moving forward with our preparations for the upcoming season."

Sanders, who played from 1968 through 1977, died Thursday from cancer. He spent 43 years with the Lions as a player, assistant coach, scout and radio broadcaster. Lions President Tom Lewand says Sanders was "oneofthe greatestDetroit Lions of all time." Only late owner William Clay Ford was associated with the team for more years. Sanders was elected in 2007 to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. He made 336 catches over his career, a team record that would stand for 20 years until Herman Moore passed him.

Cardinals fire scouting director amid scandal ST. LOUIS (AP) — The St. Louis Cardinals said Thursday they have fired scouting director Chris Correa, the first known fallout from the hacking scandal that has resulted in a federal investigation into whether the team illegally got inside the player personnel database of the Houston Astros. The Cardinals declined to say why Correa was ired but confi f rmed he'd been let go a day earlier aker a team-imposed leave of absence. The team is investigating the alleged hacking, as is the FBI. Jim Martin, an a t t or-

ney hired by the team in February, declined to say how long Correa had been on leave. Correa, who was promoted to directorof amateur scouting during the offseason, shepherded some of the team's top draft picks this season to interviews at Busch Stadium just a few weeks ago. Martin said no other employees had beenterminated and the investigation wasn' t done. An attorney for Correa, Nicholas Williams, said in a statement that Correa

"denies any illegal conduct" and instead pointed at the Astros. Jeff Luhnow, who headed the Cardinals' scouting and player development d epartment an d wa s a key proponent of the team's Redbird database, was hired as the Astros general manager in December 2011.

Tiger Woods shoots 4-under 66 at Greenbrier Classic WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. (AP) — For a change, Tiger W oods got offto a good start. Woods rebounded &om a dismal U.S.Open with a 4-under-par 66 in Thursday's opening round of The Greenbrier Classic, four shots behind leader Scott Langley. Helped by a morning rain that softened the Old White TPC course in West Virginia, Woods posted his lowest score of the season and matched his best in relation to par. It was only the fourth time he shot in the 60s in 21 rounds. None were on the first day of a tournament. "Overall I can't really say I hit any greatshots,but I hit a lot of good ones," Woods said."Ihittheballbetter than what my score indicates." Two weeks ago at the U.S. Open,

Woods had the highest 36-hole score of his pro career — 156. Woods came to Greenbrier ranked No. 202 in the world and faced with the prospect of missing cuts in consecutive tournaments for the first

timesince1994. For one round, at least, his solid game returned. "Overall, if you drive the ball well here, you' re going to probably have at least seven shots with 9-iron or below into the greens, and you' re going to have to capitalize on that," Woods said. "So far I'm one of those guys who did." Woods started on the back nine Thursday and birdied three of his first seven holes. He made bogey on the par-5 17th after his drive went into a hazard to the right, and a dou-

ble bogey from a greenside bunker on the sixth hole left him at 1 under on his round. Woods said he adjusted his aim later in the round after noticing that playing partners Steve Stricker and David Lingmerth were missing putts on the high side of the hole. "I lowered my line just a touch, maybe half a ball here and there, and it seemed to pay off," he said. Woods finished with three straight birdies, making bending putts of 18 and 19 feet on the final two holes. "Just trying to get back to 3 (under), and we just happened to pull off a hat trick coming home," he said. Jonathan Byrd and Danny Lee were a stroke behind Langley aker 7-under 63s. Brian Davis and Ryo Ishikawa were at 64.

Friends Langley and Byrd both said they fed off each other during their morning round. They were tied at 7 under before Langley surged ahead with a short birdie putt at the par-4 16th. Neither has a top 10 finish this season and both need some solid resultsto be among the 125 qualifiers for the FedEx Cup playoffs starting in late August. "I got a little down on myself earlierin the year because the results weren't really there," Langley said. "I kind of looked at myself in the mirror and said, you know, at the end of the day, I need to be the most positive guy in the field week in and week out." Langley, seeking his first win on the PGA Tour, finished 25th at the

Travelers Championship a week ago. He hit 17 greens in regulation in his bogey-free round Thursday. Byrd is in the tournament on a sponsor's exemption. "I'm very thankful just to be in the field this week," he said. Fans were certainly glad to see George McNeill and Justin Thomas. Both made holes-in-one on the par-3 18th,triggering advertised tournament payouts of $100 to fans at the hole for McNeill's ace and $500 forThomas' feat,or a totalof about $192,000.The next hole-inone at any point in the tournament on the 18th would net fans $1,000 apiece. The tournament also gave McNeill$25,000 and Thomas $50,000 forthe charitiesoftheirchoice.

Guzan, US seeks to maintain momentum vs Guatemala NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Brad Guzan is intent on following his disappointing spring with a title in the CONCACAF Gold Cup Guzan earned the starting job at Aston Villa over Shay Given early in the 2012-13 season but was replaced by Given in April, losing a chance to start in the FA Cup final, which the Villans lost to Arsenal 4-0. With Tim Howard on a one-year sabbatical from the U.S. national team until September, Guzan will be the starter for the

GREEN

Americans in the Gold Cup, where the U.S. opens next week against Honduras. "Anytime you' re in professional sports, there's going to be ups, there's going to be downs,"Guzan said ahead of Friday's exhibition against Guatemala. "It's a test of your character. It's a testofyour mentality, how you bounce back from those times when they don'tgo your way, and you have to try and find a way to move forward from those." U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann believes experience helped Guzan put the adversity of

doing sensible things for quite

the spring behind him. "Coming through the last couple of weeks, the end of Premier League when things didn't go his way, it's not easy to swallow for anybody, but he's 30 years old," Klinsmann said. "He went through a lot of stuff overseas, and he can handle it. We had a couple of good talks, and he's full of energy now. "He's in a very positive spirit. He wants to prove now that he's a deserved No. 1 goalkeeper of the United States, which he is." Guzan was in goal last month when the

U.S. won 4-3 at the Netherlands and 2-1 at Germany.Guzan made a number of critical saves as the Americans beat Germany on German soil for the first time. "I'm just constantly trying to bring my best to help the team," Guzan said. "I know I can play at this level. I know international football is a different test from club football. For me,you want to prove day in and day out that you belong." If the U.S. wins the Gold Cup, it earns a berth in the 2017 Confederations Cup.

career, all the way to the final moments of Game 6 in Cleveland last month. He is there with them, he is fighting and scrapping with them, and it would've taken a foolish, feckless player to try to walk away from what the Warriors have built. If the Warriors were willing to pay Green the market rate, then Green had to stay alongside Curry, Klay Thompson,Andre Iguodala, Steve Kerr and the rest. He had to and they had to. It was the only sensible thing for everybody, and the Warriors have been

They will now. Even if the Warriors can trade David Lee's $15.5 million contract for very little money in return, the Warriors are going to be into the luxury tax. So that explains some of the negotiations in this deal. Every dollar counted — times 1.5 or more in

luxury-tax accounting. Almost certainly, Warriors management used some leverage,because Green is a restri cted free

The maximum another team could've offered him was$69.2 million over four. OK, $82 million or thereabouts isn't exactly in the middle of those two numbers, but it's close enough.

now can plot for Curry's deal, without worrying about twinning Green or Thompson's contract talks with him, and also they can negotiate with Curry in two years knowing they' ve locked up his two favorite teammates.

Green wins because he doesn't fit the usual model of a $16 million-ayear player — he isn't a prime offensive player, he isn't a center, he kind of plays all positions. And NBA logic wins, because Green is a winning player, one of the best defensive players in the league and probably the second most important player on a team thatjust delivered one ofthegreatest wire-to-wire seasons in league history. There was no way this should've turned in to a mess, and it didn' t.

Green was worth whatever he could get and Warriors management rewarded him exactly as Lacob and Myers promised.

WEATHER WATCHERS NEEDED The Union Democrat has a dedicated team of volunteer weather watchers who keep track of high-low temperatures and precipitation. They call the newspaper with fresh numbers early every morning for that day's weather page, on the back of the sports section. The only pay is an annual gathering - sometimes a picnic hosted by the newspaper, sometimes dinner at an area restaurant - where they are honored and thanked. Necessary equipment, which the volunteers must provide themselves, are a thermometer that records the high and low temperatures of the day and a rain gauge. They must also submit snow depths and melt snow, when they get it, to include its water content with their precipitation. Volunteers are needed right now in, Tuolumne, Pinecrest and San Andreas. Anyone interested in becoming a volunteer may call Pam Orebaugh 588-4546 or e-mail orebau hOuniondemocrat.corn

NOTICE OF TEMPORARY URGENCY CHANGE PETITION FILED BY THE UNITED STATES BUREAU OF RECLAMATION TO CHANGE TERMS OF WATER RIGHT PERMITS OF THE NEW MELONES PROJECT REQUIRING IMPLEMENTATION OF THE DISSOLVED OXYGEN OBJECTIVE ON THE STANISLAUS RIVER

The United States Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) filed a Temporary Urgency Change Petition (TUCP) with the State Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board), Division of Water Rights on June 17, 2015, pursuant to California Water Code section 1435 et seq. in order to temporarily change terms of Reclamation's permits for the New Melones Project on the Stanislaus River requiring implementation of the dissolved oxygen objective on the Stanislaus River. Specifically, the TUCP requests temporary changes to permit conditions included in State Water Board Decisions 1422 and 1641, requiring that Reclamation attain the minimum dissolved oxygen objective on the Stanislaus River below Goodwin Dam as specified in the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board's Water Quality Control Plan (Basin Plan) for the Sacramento River and San Joaquin River Basins. The TUCP requeststhe changes be in effect through November 30, 2015. This notice, Reclamation's TUCP, and other related documents may be viewed at htt://www.waterboards.ca. ov/waterri hts/water issues/ ro rams/a lications/transfers tu notic es/index.shtml The TUCP seeks modifications to the subject permits that, if approved, will change the minimum dissolved oxygen concentration on the Stanislaus River below Goodwin Dam that Reclamation is required to meet from 7.0 milligrams per liter (mg/I) to 5.0 mg/I through November 30, 2015. According to Reclamation, the proposed change would allow more flexibility in the operation of New Melones Reservoir, in coordination with fishery agencies and the State Water Board. According to Reclamation, the combination of inflow to New Melones Reservoir and storage within the reservoir is no longer sufficient to meet existing permit term conditions through the remainder of this year. Reclamation states that it cannot meet the dissolved oxygen objective and retain enough water for more critical fishery resource needs later in the year. For email notification of actions on this TUCP, and any other related project information, interested persons or entities should subscribe to the State Water Board's Drought Updates email subscription list (appears in the "Water Rights Topics" section) at: htt://www.waterboards.ca. ov/resources/email subscri tions/swrcb subscribe.shtml¹dwr Pursuant to California Water Code section 1438(d), any interested person may file an objection to the temporary urgency change requested. In order to be fully considered, objections filed in response to this notice should be submitted by July 13, 2015. Pursuant to Water Code section 1438(a), the State Water Board may issue a TUCP order in advance of the public notice. Regardless, the Board will give prompt consideration to any comments or objections, and may revise any TUCP order issued before the end of the comment period. Copies of comments or objections should be provided to Reclamation when they are submitted to the State Water Board. Please file objections using the petition protest form, which can be obtained at: htt://www.waterboards.ca. ov/waterri hts/ ublic ations forms/forms/docs/ et rotest. df Send comments, objections, or any other correspondence, to the following: 1) State Water Resources Control Board, c/o Chris Carr, P.O.

How often does he visit otherwise? This couldbe their way of ensuring his presence. If he chooses to continue helping, please be supportive. And should he decide not to do so, he needs to be the one to tell them. Your best bet is to stay neutral. But you might suggest he look into hiring someone towork on these projects, and it might even be worth his while to help finance them.

Burping not usually associated with H. pylori DEAR DR ROACH:My friend was diagnosed with H. pylori. He was treated and then later he was given a stool sample test. This test showed "negative," and he was told that it means he does not have the H. pylori bacteria anymore. No more medication was given to him, and no special or restricted diet was advised. Unfortunately, he continues to burp all day and all night, no matter what he eats or doesn't eat. He is always su6'ering from built-up gas. Can you advise on what could be the cause? —D.J.Y.

NF2 isa rare disorder (about 1 in 25,000people)that can occur in families or as the result of a gene mutation. Ninety to 95 percent of people with NF2 will develop acoustic neuromas, usually by age30.M anagement ofacousticneuromas in NF2 is more complex than in people with sporadic tumors, and usually includes surgery rather than radiation. Recurrence and complication rates may be higher in NF2 patients than in those with sporadic tumors. Not all tumors need to be treated, especially since treatment sometimes fails. Newer treatments, such as bevacizumab, may be helpful in NF2-associated acoustic neuromas.
