Commissioners to Visit Potential Site for New EMS Building
For over a year, the Gooding County Commissioners have been looking for a location to build a new EMS building. After considering purchase costs and the location advantages of several pieces of land, they are hopeful they have found what they are looking for. On August 1st at 10 a.m. the Commissioners will hold a special meeting at 1938 State Highway 46 (just south of North Canyon Medical Center). The purpose of this meeting is to conduct a site visit. The public is welcome to attend this meeting, however, an executive session may be needed to discuss information not open to public discloser. -- -- - Daytime meetings are difficult for many of us to attend. Because of that, the Gooding County Commissioners have been holding an evening meeting once a month at their last meeting of the month. Their next evening meeting will be on July 29th at 6:00 p.m. As with all their meetings, the public is welcome to attend. If you have a specific issue you wish to address, contact the clerk’s office to be put on the agenda.

Free Nitrate Screening For Private Well Owners in Shoshone
Is your well water safe to drink? Public water systems are regularly monitored for harmful contaminants, but if you own your well, this responsibility falls to you. The Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), in partnership with Idaho Rural Water Association, will offer a free nitrate screening for private well owners at the Lincoln County Fair in Shoshone Thursday, July 25, and Friday, July 26, from 3 to 8 p.m. Nitrate is the most widespread contaminant in Idaho ground water. It is a chemical form of nitrogen found naturally in small amounts in soil and ground water. However, some land use practices and human activities may increase nitrate in ground water to dangerous levels. In areas with shallow depths to ground water, sandy soils, fractured bedrock, or shallow wells, nitrate contamination can easily occur. Drinking water that contains high levels of nitrate is especially dangerous for infants under the age of 6 months, unborn children, and adults with low stomach acidity. To participate in the free screening, well owners are advised to do the following on the morning of July 25 or 26:
July 25-26
> Identify a source that is not connected to a treatment device (water softener, carbon filter, or other filtration system). An outside faucet or hydrant works best. > Locate a clean glass jar and lid or Ziploc bag to collect the water sample. Label the outside with your name or address, date, and well name (garden well, house well, etc.). > Allow the water to run 5 to 10 minutes to empty the pressure tank so water comes directly from the aquifer. Doing so will lead to more accurate results. > Fill the container with approximately one cup of water. >Keep the sample cool. DEQ will dip a test strip into the water, which will indicate if nitrate is present. For more information, contact Irene Nautch at DEQ’s Twin Falls Regional Office at (208) 736-2190 or e-mail irene.nautch@deq.idaho.gov. For information about free online classes and webinars offered for well owners nationwide, visit www.privatewellclass.org.

We’ve promised to take you with us along this journey and will provide regular updates as we move forward.

...but never Compromising the Truth.
Cup of Tee I have been in convenience stores and store clerks will have a name tag on that is obviously not them. For instance, a guy would be with a name tag that says “ANN” or a gal with a tag that says “MARK”. I tell them they aren’t who they are listed to be. I then ask them why they are wearing a name tag that doesn’t belong to themselves. Most of the time they answer would be “I forgot my name tag when I came to work and management makes us wear a name tag whether it is who we are or not. Sounds like politics to me. I think I would choose to not forget my name tag when I came to work. It is hard enough going through life getting blamed for things you did without getting blamed for things you did not. Years ago, we used to do demolition car derbies. One of the places we used to demo was Homedale, Idaho. Homedale was a modified demolition derby where things were welded and radiators were moved to have longer, harder hitting event. My cousin, one of the HERD BOYS demo team, beat the Homedale crew at their own game. The Homedale locals thought someone from their area should win every event. So we as HURD BOYS became targets for everyone. Then I was able to get some of the best demo car stock - the 1960s Chrysler Imperial. In fact, I even found one in their own town that no one had discovered. Again, we were in the winners circle. The derby became a betting game by the various sponsors to get extra cash for those who
hit the HURD BOYS the hardest. With that I sponsored more cars with our name on them. Sorry boys, just politics. We were doing demolition event in eight cities and had our own shirts with our name on them. The colors were bright blue with white logos, the same colors as our old Emmett High School. When I heard in a particular derby that the stakes were going to be really high on the HURD BOYS and their cars, I gave a ton of shirts away at the derby to be worn there. Most of the shirt recipients were die hard Homedale supporters. Sorry, just politics. For the event there were three seating arrangements in the rodeo grounds: A - the covered area facing away from the sun; B - the uncovered area facing away from the sun; and C - the uncovered area facing the sun. The A tickets were hard to get. They usually lasted an hour once released to sell. I bought my mom the best seat available section A. I watched for her while I was down in the arena. No mom to be found. I finally saw her setting in the B seats with a group of the Homedale people wearing our shirts. I got her down to the arena fence and asked her, “Mom, what are you doing in these seat? I bought you a good seat in section A.” She told me, ”They all had our shirts on and I thought that was where I was supposed to be.” I said, “No mother, those people aren’t even for us. I gave them shirts as a political move.” The shirts did indeed confuse the crowd. This is my “Cup of Tee” saying name calling is sometimes just politics.

Bug Crew vs. Spotted Knapweed
By: Camas Bug Crew Kevin the spotted knapweed was extremely content with himself. Finally after seven years of growing he had finally taken over the entire south side of the mountain. He had pushed all of the native plants out of his way in order to get this far. Now on this hill he could plan the demise of Camas County. As Kevin sat in a stupor of thought he saw the Camas Bug crew coming up the hill. “No, this cannot be he thought … now I’m finished.” Spotted knapweed is an herbaceous, short-lived, perennial reproducing entirely by seed, producing up to 25,000 seeds per plant can remain viable in the soil up to 8 years. Flowers range in color from pink to light-purple and bloom form July to October. The bracts of the flower heads are blak-tipped, gibing the plant its characteristic “spotted” appearance. Seeds are brown to black in color, smooth, and less than 0.25 inch long. Stems are typically 2 to 4 feet in length with lower leaves that are deeply lobed and upper leaves that are more linear. Spotted knapweed prefers moist rangeland habitats, but is common in waste areas, along roadsides, and in pastures. To date, thirteen biological control agents have been approved for release for the knapweed complex, which includes spotted knapweed. Larinus is an abundant biological control agent that can utilize spotted, diffuse, and squarrose knapweeds. Larinus over winters, in the stem, as an adult. Adults emerge in the spring when they begin to feed on knapweed foliage. Females produce between 28 to 130 eggs which they lay in clusters in open flowers. Eggs hatch and larvae feed on seeds and receptacle tissue for about a month. Larvae construct cocoons within the seed heads using pappus hairs and pupate. Emerging adults chew a characteristic round hole in the top of the cocoon that is visible when viewed from above Kevin watched in horror as the Bug Crew released their agents on the mountain. The agents immediately got to work, devouring seed heads and burrowing in the roots of the knapweed. It was a long, painful process that made Kevin’s roots ache. One by one, his family passed on until Kevin was the only one left. For months he struggled to defy the agents, but they were too strong. And then one day, Kevin couldn’t take it anymore. With a sorrowful sigh he withdrew into the shadows and was never seen again. If you know of a place that our bugs can be used please contact the Camas County Weed Department @ 208-764-3512.
