Green vs. ART FROM THE HEART green in Vermont

By Rob Nikolewski Vermont Watchdog Report MONTPELIER Ñ ItÕ s green versus green in the Green Mountain State.

Tensions have flared in Vermont, home to legislators and policy groups who like touting their environmental bona fides.

The flash point is the state’s renewable energy requirements insisting state utilities derive 75 percent of their electric power from renewable sources by 2032 and a nonlegislated goal of generating a whopping 90 percent of all VermontÕ s energy from renewables by 2050. Ò The stateÕ s environmental program has divided the environmental community,Ó said Mark Whitworth, executive director of the renewable advocacy group Energize Vermont, who has a litany of complaints about the mandates, ranging from how the requirements may alter the stateÕ s landscape to charges that communities have been shut CONTINUED ON PAGE 13

Wrestling champ recounts life story at visit to Field Days

By Lou Varricchio lou@addison-eagle.com

Retired pro wrestler Paul “Butcher” Vachon is the author of “When Wrestling Was Real”.

He enjoyed his visit to Addison County Fair & Field Days last week.

NEW HAVEN Ñ Today, when you meet Paul Vachon, 77, heÕ ll more likely remind you of a French-Canadian pŽ pŽ Ñ grandfatherÑ than a former world-champion professional wrestler, known as Ò The ButcherÓ .

But Vachon, who retired from the popular sport in 1984 and now calls Vermont home, is one facet of the story of Canada’s popular Vachons, the pioneering first family of the pro-wrestling sport.

In fact, Paul VachonÕ s so proud of his life on the mat that he has written a rip-roaring, three-volume English-language autobiography about his life, titled Ò When Wrestling Was RealÓ . The paperback books, sporting lots of photographs of VachonÕ s worldwide smack downs, are published by Quebec-based publisher Patric Laprade and printer Impression Prioritaire.

Vachon was the center of attention at his exhibit tent adjoining the midway during the 2015 Addison County Fair & Field Days, Aug. 4-8.

The retired wrestler was accompanied by Addison County resident and wrestler aficionado Roy Haynes. Haynes, featured in the Eagle in 2006, is best known as TVÕ s Ò Cheapest Man in AmericaÓ ; he has been featured on ABC-TVÕ s Ò 20/20Ó and is a Ò RipleyÕ s Believe It or NotÓ icon. Haynes is a friend and fan of Paul Vachon.

New route for 2015 Tour de Farms cycle event, Sept. 26

BRISTOL Ñ The Tour de Farms is one of VermontÕ s oldest cycling farm tours is set in Addison CountyÕ s rolling farmlands.

The event has been voted New EnglandÕ s best biking happening by Yankee Magazine. Over 3,000 people have ridden the tour over the last seven years in Shoreham and Orwell.

This year, the annual tour will featuresa new route and will be staged out of Bristol on Saturday, Sept. 26, starting at Mt. Abraham Union High School and ending at the Bristol Harvest Festival on the green.

The new 37-mile route will feature eight farm stops and 18 participating farms and restaurants sampling everything from apple cider to pesto, from pulled pork to watermelon.

The ACRON, Addison County Relocalization Network, organizes this cycling and local food sampling tour through the beautiful rolling farm country of northeast Addison County. The tour is a Ò fundraiserÓ for ACORNÕ s work to promote local food and agriculture in the southern Champlain Valley. One quarter of the proceeds from advanced registration will go to participating farms on the Tour.

This yearÕ s event is sponsored by VBT Bicycling and Walking Vacations, City Market, Healthy Living Market, EarlÕ s Cyclery, AARP, Skinny Pancake, Bristol Works, Bristol Suites, National Bank of Middlebury, Aqua Vitea, Citizen Cider, BeeÕ s Wrap, Cooperative Insurance and The Bike Center. Ò The tour is a one-of-a-kind experience,Ó said Jonathan Corco-

ran, ACORNÕ s executive director. Ò People keep coming back to share a relaxing day with family and friends to experience the flavors of the fall harvest, the beauty of the land and its fall colors and the great people who make our local food community special.Ó The 2015 tour runs through Bristol, New Haven, Monkton, Hinesburg and Starksboro and will showcase the wonderful diversity of farms and local foods in this lesser known part of Addison County. The terrain is hilly with a mix of paved and dirt roads so a mountain bike or road bike with wide tires is recommended.

A route map, a list of participating farms, and other Tour information is available at: http://acornvt.org/portfolio/tour-defarms/.

Corcoran said, Ò Volunteers are needed to assist with parking and registration, with prep, set-up, serving and take-down at our farm-stops, and with photography. Volunteers will be entered into a raffle to win various prizes including gift certificates from the Farmhouse Group, Hotel Vermont and other sponsors.

People interested in volunteering can send an email to maria@ acornvt.orgÓ The Tour de Farms is a rain or shine event.

For questions about the tour, contact ACORN at info@acornvt. org or 802-382-0401.

“The Tour de Farms is a one-of-a-kind experience,” said Jonathan Corcoran of ACORN’. “People keep coming back.”

Beware: Vermont weed can burn

MIDDLEBURY-RUTLAND Ñ A common plant found along VermontÕ s roadsides and open areas may not appear harmful but its sap contains a chemical that causes serious skin reactions when exposed to sunlight.

The sap, or juice, inside the stems, leaves, flowers, and fruits of the wild parsnip (Pastinaca sativa L.), also called Ò poison parsnipÓ or Ò hogweedÓ , contains chemicals called psoralens.

Contact with the sap causes a chemical burn in the presence of sunlight, a condition known as phytophotodermatitis.

The sap is exposed when the plant is cut or knocked down. Skin reactions begin about 24 to 48 hours after contact with the sap and sunlight and include redness, burns similar to seconddegree sunburns, painful rashes, and raised blisters. Giant hogweed also contains the same chemicals.

Wild parsnip is an invasive species that can grow almost anywhere but prefers disturbed areas like roadsides and open areas. The plant is a member of the carrot family reaching heights of two to four feet with leaves that resemble cel-

ery leaves and yellow flowers that look similar to Queen AnneÕ s Lace.

The Vermont Department of Health advises people to avoid skin and eye contact with wild parsnip sap.

If you need to work with the plant: á Wear clothing that covers your arms and legs. á Wash clothes that come in contact with the sap. á Work with the plant on cloudy days, and always wash your skin immediately after coming in contact with the sap. á If you are using string trimmers or power mowers in areas where this plant grows, wear eye/face protection, in addition to long pants, long sleeves, and gloves.

If you get sap on your skin: á Wash the skin thoroughly with soap and water as soon as possible. á Protect the exposed skin from sunlight for at least 48 hours. á If you experience a skin reaction, call your health care provider.

Getting the nuclear And they’re off! option back on track T Y

ouÕ d be intellectually dishonest if you think that we can run a competitive, 21stcentury industrial nation like the USA entirely on alternative energy sources. Any superpower needs to produce and consume energyÑ lots of it, in the form of mixed sources of everything from oil and gas (EarthÕ s original biofuels) to solar and wind, among a few others.

Perhaps that is what was going through President ObamaÕ s mind when he threw a bone to the nuclear power industry to chew as part of his Clean Power Plan, Aug. 3. Not surprisingly, under the Obama plan, the already expiring coal industry is the biggest loser with additional thousands of workers being thrown out of work.

Regardless of the controversial climate-change/ global warming debate, all 50 states can now take on more credit for carbon-free electricity which opens the door for new nuclear power plants.

The closing of Vermont Yankee was an enormous miscalculation that weÕ ll all pay for in the coming decade and beyond. The Yankee decision has likely closed the door on ever using atomic power in our state again. We think thatÕ s unfortunate. WeÕ re already seeing that the Yankee decision was based to much on emotion and not enough on economics and logic.

Thanks to alternative energy volatility, Vermont utilities now have to import Ò offsetÓ nuclear power via New HampshireÕ s Seabrook Nuclear Power Station, a real zero-carbon, high energy workhorse (see the Eagle, page 1, July 18). Que sera, sera, as Doris Day used to singÑ at least ObamaÕ s Clean Power Plan offers renewed hope to those smarter U.S. states not having foolishly discarded their in-state Ò greenÓ nuclear options.

According to Bloomberg News, until ObamaÕ s plan, Ò ...Yet-to-be completed reactors were (being) counted as existing units that wouldnÕ t be fully credited for carbon reductions generated in the future after they had started operating. The nuclear power industry complained that amounted to a penalty on the plants and made state targets harder to achieve.Ó Well, apparently all that has changed now, much to the benefit of the nuclear industry and new nuclear operators.

Setting aside the Vermont State Legislature and the anti-nuclear lobbies, intelligent AmericansÑ a majorityÑ support nuclear power.

A 2015 poll by Bisconti Research, Inc. and Quest Global Research found that 86 percent of Americans agreed with the statement, Ò We should renew

the license of nuclear power plants that continue to meet federal safety standards.Ó Seventy seven percent of those polled by Bisconti and Quest Global agreed that power companies should prepare now so that new nuclear plants could be built. Meanwhile, 83 percent of the nuke poll respondents said that itÕ s vital for the U.S. nuclear industry to also be an atomic technology leader in world markets.

News reports appearing last week indicated that the Nuclear Energy Institute is Ò pleasedÓ that the EPA now recognizes that nuclear plants Ò should count toward compliance when they are operating.Ó But we still think itÕ s a mistake for the Obama plan not to count existing reactors for the credit for their championship carbon-reduction efforts. Ò Nuclear facilities will be credited because itÕ s new, zero-carbon generation that will be credited as part of a compliance strategy,Ó said U.S. EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy. Ò ThatÕ s entirely consistent and appropriate.Ó Yes, but what about the older plants? They, too, are zero emission power plants. No matter, the plan is step in the right direction to reboot AmericaÕ s high-tech nuclear industry.

However, the biggest concern hanging over AmericaÕ s nuclear industry is the question of disposing of our nationÕ s spent fuel rods and related radioactive waste.

The federal repository at Yucca Mountain in Nevada has been a political and environmental football for years, and thereÕ s no good feeling that the underground rad-waste facilityÑ under semi development for decades and costing billions of taxpayer dollarsÑ will ever be completed for what it was designed to do, safely and permanently.

Bisconti and Quest Global found that nuclear power adds $60 billion to our nation’s GDP and saves consumers (at least those who have nuclear electricity) 6 percent on their electricity bills. Plus, for every $1 billion spent in exporting new, madein-USA nuclear-power components, up to 10,000 jobs are created here, in American industry.

Now, considering President ObamaÕ s desire to reduce our carbon footprint, operating U.S. nuclear power plants safely helps avoid over one-half billion tons of carbon emissions each year. ThatÕ s a valued social cost savings of $25 billion annually.

No nukes, you say? Nah. As the PresidentÕ s Clean Power Plan implies, itÕ s time to go nukes.

The Eagle

he recent interest in the first Republican primary of the 2016 Presidential campaign was extremely high because the need to make the right choice in next yearÕ s election is also very high.

TV executives and campaign aides predicted unusually high ratings for the event, thanks to curiosity about candidate Donald Trump and the controversy over the Ò top tenÓ candidate criteria; But the ratings quadrupled even the highest projections for this first event.

Dan Alexander As a comparison the 24 million viewers of Thoughts from this debate paled those of the first GOP primaBehind the Pressline ry debate four years ago when only 3.2 million viewers bothered to watch. The audience easily exceeded pretty much everything thatÕ s been on American television in the past twelve months, from the finale of “The Walking Dead” to the final episode of David Letterman’s “Late Show.” The debate was bigger than all of this year’s NBA finals and BaseballÕ s World Series games, and most of the yearÕ s NFL match-ups.

The interest in the debate and the surprising interest in the Trump candidacy is nothing more than a reflection on the current state of political affairs in this country.

Frustration over government gridlock is clearly front and center. Trump, whose candidacy under normal conditions would not have amounted to much, has seen his polling number growing, despite rude comments and little to no substance in his rhetoric. He has many insiders scratching their heads.

Americans have grown so tired of do-little politicians, that it appears they will take the time listen to unconventional candidates like Trump, Dr. Ben Carson and Carly Fiorina, hoping for a white knight who can bring the warring political parties together and return the country to its once prominent role.

New leadership, from new faces in the form of a successful business executive, surgeon, and other non-conventional candidates seems more realistic than any time in the past.

Traditional Democrats and Republicans seem to be of the same mindset for this election when looking past traditional candidates while listen closely to unconventional choices. Independent, Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, a professing Socialists, is attacking the same type of interest as some of the a fore mentioned GOP candidates, while he seeks the Democratic nomination.

Granted, this is very early in the election process and voters may be doing nothing more than showing their willingness to listen, but clearly traditional politicians should be taking notice. Pandering to the base isnÕ t going to be enough to win this election, nor is campaigning with name recognition alone going to win over the electorate.

The country has grown tired of stagnation and is eager to consider a new type of candidate who can deliver on their promises and return the country to the land of optimism and opportunity for all who seek to pursue the American dream.

Let’s hope America keeps listening and chooses wisely in 2016.

Letters to the Editor

The Dash of Life To the editor: Thank you for an interesting editorial. Ò The Dash of LifeÓ , in the July 4, 2015, the Vermont Eagle!

All too often we skip through life without reflecting on past history. This is disturbingly obvious of legislators who react and pass laws based on headline news without consideration of how we got to where we are and what effect impetuous legislation may have on us long term as a nation.

I had the good fortune to live in a Pennsylvania home that was next to two large cemeteries, one Jewish and one non-sectarian.

Since I walked my dogs through them on a near daily basis I had ample opportunity to read tombstones and contemplate the past. Examples were: A German university professor of medical science who escaped the Nazis; an American soldier killed Dec. 7, 1941; the gray marble stone with a startling encapsulated photograph of a young nurse in her white starched uniform who died in 1918; and a 23-year-old woman whoÕ s epitaph bearing some of the lines from Edna St. Vincent MillayÕ s poem: Ò First FigÓ : My candle burns at both ends It will not last the night But oh, my foes, and oh, my friends It gives a lovely light!

Just a few meters away separated by a hedge, stands a large white marble edifice in the other cemetery marking the burial ground of early twentieth century Philadelphia firefighters killed in the line of duty.

Not a hundred yards from there are more soldierÕ s grave. One honoring a Civil War captain who received the Congressional Medal of Honor for taking the flag from a wounded bearer and leading a victorious charge.

Just three months ago I stood in memorial respect with seven of my cousins at the grave of my paternal grandmother Mary Anne McNulty Kelly who died in 1930 before any of us were born. The grave was unmarked but was researched and found by my cousin Pat, a retired nun.

All of us believed we were visiting the site of grandmotherÕ s earthly body and that her spirit was not actually there in the ground, but with us none the less. As a group it was a place for us to meet, support each other, and remember her and our immigrant parents who raised us so lovingly.

So yes, cemeteries and tombstones are not morbid, but places and monuments to teach us something. They help us realize that the trials and progress of our ancestors are worth remembering and useful contributions to shape our future. In Jewish cemeteries particularly, there is a tradition of leaving a pebble on the tombstone after a visit. A sign of respect and a love one not forgotten.

Charles Kelly Addison, Vt. EditorÕ s reply: Thank you for your wonderfully written, heartfelt letter.

Community thanks To the editor:

The Town of Hubbardton would like to thank you for all the media coverage you gave us. Generosity like yours helped to make the celebration a great success. It far exceeded our expectations and your graciousness coverage contributed to itÕ s success.

It is our hope that you had the opportunity to enjoy all or part of the celebration with us. Whether it was the pig roast, the musicians, the kids games, adult games or fireworks, there was something for everyone. The day was filled with laughter and smiles, painted faces, both adult & childrenÕ s, food and memories. We thank you.

In a small community like ours, we rely on the giving and generosity of our local media, businesses and neighbors. We were overwhelmed and again, we thank you.

Claire OÕ Brien Dick Nordmeyer Hubbardton Day Committee Members

Repeal Vermont’s “certificate of need” laws

W

e need to lower the cost of health care in Vermont, and the state, dealing with a structural budget deficit, doesnÕ t have the capacity to raise more taxes. So, what can we do? One simple, cost-free solution is to repeal Vermont’s Certificate of Need (CON) laws.

What are CON laws? Basically, a way for the government to guarantee a monopoly (and artificially high profits) to a politically favored provider by denying potential competitors permission to provide services. In Vermont, for example, when Vermont Open MRI, wanted to provide imaging technology for one half to one third the price of UVM Medical Center, they had to first convince the Green Mountain Care Board there was a Ô needÕ for cheaper, faster, more convenient MRIs. (Duh!) Why should anybody have to ask such permission, let alone be forced to waste considerable time and money getting it? Why not just let folks hang out a shingle? If there is a need, the customers will come. If there is not a need, the imaging center, or the clinic, or whatever will go out of business. Not good for the investors, but no harm to the taxpayer or the patients.

Other stories of cheaper, more convenient healthcare alternatives breaking into the market include ClearChoiceMD. When this group wanted to open a number of low-cost, convenient

urgent care centers around the state, their competition insisted that they get a CON. When it became clear these clinics were not subject to CON laws, legislators, rather than encourage entrepreneurial, creative problem solving, enacted a number of regulations making it more difficult for ClearChoiceMD to operate.

Most recently, Dr. Peter Gunther wrote a piece that appeared in a number of venues about some doctors needing a CON to open a Green Mountain Surgery Center, citing National data that shows Ò the costs of procedures at such community-based centers are 45-60 percent less than in a hospital setting.” Please! Go for it!

Why would anyone object, and why would we keep laws on the books to obstruct such ventures?

Currently, thirty-six states and D.C. have CON laws, regulating, on average, fourteen healthcare services, devices and procedures, but as few as just one (Arizona and Ohio), and as many as thirty Ð you guessed it Ð Vermont! Yes, we are the worst.

The ostensible reason for CON laws is that giving a government enforced monopoly to a favored provider allows that provider to over-charge some patients (who would otherwise go elsewhere) so that the unnaturally high profits can be used to subsidize indigent care services. This is bad policy on so many levels.

First, it is a hidden, unjust Ò taxÓ on some medical patients. The government has the power to tax, but not a hospital. If the government wants a hospital to provide care for patients who cannot otherwise afford it, the government should pay for it, not the unlucky guy who happens to be in the next bed. This is not fair,

nor does it make sense except for the fact that it allows politicians to escape accountability for what is a massive transfer of wealth.

Second, this creates a baffling lack of transparency. It’s a joke to ask how much anything at a hospital costs today. An Advil?

An appendectomy? Nobody can tell you because one person is being double or triple charged while another is skipping out on the bill. It is an impossible scenario for regulators to effectively monitor and keep players accountable. Which gets us to the last pointÉ .

It doesnÕ t work. A recent study by the Mercatus Center concluded, “We do not find evidence associating CON programs with an increase of indigent care. The effect of CON programs on indigent care shows no clear pattern using either direct or indirect measures of indigent care.Ó What they found CON laws did to is decrease the availability of services for patients, everything from hospital beds, to MRIs to CT scansÉ whatever service requires a CON, there is less of it in the marketplace. That means longer waiting periods and higher costs for patients.

If you want to lower the cost of anything, the goal should be to increase supply. CON laws are in place for only one reason Ð to restrict supply. They should be repealed by the legislature, a serious healthcare reform move that would cost taxpayers nothing to implement, and could lower the cost of health care over the long term.

CLOVER 2 year old. Spayed Female.

Shepherd mix.

If you have a super quiet home and youÕ re very, very patient I may be the dog for you. You see, IÕ ve been through a lot lately and IÕ m going to need extra time to settle into my new home. IÕ m very shy but IÕ m starting to come out of my shell here at RCHS and the staff really enjoys me. They know that after I settle in and feel comfortable in my new home I will blossom and my personality will flourish.

MISTY 2 Year Old. Spayed Female. Domestic Short Hair.

Brown Tabby.

I arrived at RCHS on July 10, due to my previous family having some changes in lifestyle. The thought of an inside only home I can live out the rest of my feline years in is very exciting. It does take time for me to feel comfortable with new places. I am very pretty and can be quite sweet, but I like things calm, cool and collected. I hope to meet you soon, and remember give me time to warm up, and you will be happily surprised in how great I am.

OZZIE 9 Years Old. Neutered Male. Domestic Short Hair.

Brown Tiger with White.

Published by New Market Press, Inc. I was brought to RCHS because my owners were moving and I could not go with them. I am still playful and am a very fun loving guy. I was good with kids and smaller dogs and was described as good natured by my previous owners. I am use to an inside/outside home, but staying inside would be best for me. I am being housed in a community cat room and so far I am fine with my feline roommates. I really am a great cat, that is easy on the eyes and very affectionate.

TEDDY 1 year old. Neutered Male.

Yorkshire Terrier.

IÕ m an adorable, energetic fella who is always on the go.

I love toys and have one in my mouth or with me most of the time. I like to dance and will happily spin around to show you how talented I am. I also know Sit. I will need lots of exercise and play time in my new home to keep me happy. I love to fetch which is a great way for me to get some of the exercise I need. Walks and hikes sound great, too. IÕ m a happy guy who will make you smile and youÕ ll be glad when you hang out with me. IÕ m a spunky dog.

“Random acts of camping” at state parks this summer

SALISBURY Ñ Designed to share the joy of camping with Vermonters, Ò Random Acts of CampingÓ are coming to a state park day use area near you. Ò Random Acts of CampingÓ rewards lucky park visitors with two free nights of tent, RV, lean-to, or cabin camping in any Vermont State Park campground.

One winner will be chosen at random on nice weather weekends through early August.

The program was developed as a way to increase statewide accessibility to camping and to

foster a lifelong love of the outdoors.

Vermont State Parks will be giving away the free park stays to day users at several state parks during busy weekends this summer.

The winners will be chosen at random by park staff.

Winners will also receive personal trip planning assistance from the Rochelle Skinner, state parks sales and service manager. Ò Camping with your family and friends is so much fun and the outdoors is so good for you.

Our hope is that this program encourages a few more people to give camping a try,Ó said Skinner.

Random Acts of Camping will kick off at this weekend.

Every Wednesday, if weekend weather is looking good, Skinner will announce which park will be the site for the upcoming weekend on the Vermont State ParksÕ website, Facebook and Twitter feeds.

Paul Vachon From page 1

According to VachonÑ the so-called Butcher of MontrealÑ he grew up alongside 12 siblings of French heritage. Considering the odds, there must be something in VachonÕ s genes that propelled him into the world of pro wrestlingÑ heÕ s brother to wrestlers Maurice and Vivian Vachon and he is also the former father-in-law of wrestlers David Ò GangrelÓ Heath and Tom Nash. Vachon has been married four times and is the father to six children.

“My father was Ferdinand Vachon, a Montreal Police officer,” Vachon said. Ò In 1957, I followed my brother Maurice into professional wrestling, adopting a vicious heel style and the moniker Ô Butcher VachonÕ . I wrestled in the American Wrestling Association, World Wrestling FederationÑ now WWEÑ the National Wrestling Alliance and Georgia Championship Wrestling, which later became the WCW.Ó Vachon said he often teamed alongside brother Ò Mad DogÓ Vachon, with whom he won the AWA World Tag Team Championship. Ò In the early 1970s, I appeared alongside my sister Vivian Vachon in the motion picture Ô Wrestling QueenÕ ,Ó he noted.

Vachon may find it difficult to talk about the death of his adoptive daughter, wrestler Luna Vachon, however, heÕ s proud of her successful career in the sport which was inspired by her father and uncle.

For Butcher Vachon, there is plenty of life and fight left after wrestlingÑ Vachon was a federal NDP Party candidate in Quebec 1988, 1993 and 1995. He apparently liked to verbally wrestle with the opposition.

Then, in 2003, he was diagnosed with throat cancer. He underwent 40 treatments, one on each week day for five straight weeks, to overcome the throat cancer. In addition, he had the disease burned out of his tonsils and his teeth removed. As a result of the radiation treatments, he underwent reconstructive jaw surgery in early June 2009. Vachon also suffers from diabetes.Ó Considering all the physical challenges he faced in his later years, Vachon remains a fighter with an infectious “can do” spirit.

Vermont Watchdog From page 1

out of the process.

Even the mandatesÕ chief proponent in the Vermont Legislature admits thereÕ s tension. Ò ThereÕ s a real argument (about) what the future should be,Ó said Rep. Tony Klein, D-East Montpelier.

The 75 percent requirement for electricity coming from renewable energy passed overwhelmingly in the most recent legislative session, sailing through the state House of Representatives in a 121-24 vote and the state Senate, 22-6. Gov. Peter Shumlin, a Democrat, signed the bill into law in June.

But that hasnÕ t quieted critics of the mandate Ñ as well as the much more ambitious 90 percent goal, which, by its very scope, will force policymakers to find a way to heat homes in the notoriously cold Vermont winters and power cars and trucks with renewable sources. Ò You say we want to have 90 percent renewables in the state of Vermont by 2050,Ó said Rob Roper, president of the stateÕ s free-market think tank, Ethan Allen Institute. Ò Everybody says, oh, thatÕ s great. WeÕ re doing our part to save the environment. Nobody is asked the question, either in the committee rooms or in the press: What is the real cost? How much money is this going to cost and what is the effect is this going to be on the landscape?Ó The fact that a free-market group doesnÕ t like the mandates is not surprising, but what raises eyebrows is that a couple of environmental groups donÕ t like them either. Ò My organization opposed the bill,Ó Whitworth told Watchdog.org. Ò Not because we oppose renewable energy but because Vermont has done the easy part of the job and hasn’t done the hard part of the job. The easy part of the job is defining requirements. But they havenÕ t dealt with the siting and operational standards.Ó Energize Vermont worries that in order to meet the renewable mandates, the state will cut down forests to install solar panels and erect more wind turbines along ridgelines.

Whitworth also says the three members of the Public Service Board Ñ appointed by VermontÕ s governor to serve staggered, six-year terms Ñ will run roughshod over local concerns when the board makes decisions on public utilities. Ò It totally ignores what a municipality might want,Ó Whitworth said. Ò Land use questions have now become very important. Where do you want your 25 acres of solar panels? Do you want to allow agricultural lands converted to electricity production? How do 25 acres of solar panels fit in with the aesthetic vision that a town has established for itself?Ó Klein acknowledges the Public Service Board Ò can trump local opposition because the certificate of public good is issued for the good of the entire state,” but said the board has been in place since the 1970s.

“It’s only been now that people have been using it as an excuse to fight something they donÕ t want to look at,Ó Klein told Watchdog.org in a telephone interview.

The new energy goals are Ò ambitious and itÕ s going to require the development of a lot of wind and a lot of solar in the state,Ó Klein said. Ò But thatÕ s what we want.Ó Energize Vermont and other opponents especially donÕ t like the prospect of constructing more wind farms along the stateÕ s mountain ridges. Whitworth describes it as Ò industrial wind developmentÓ that damages forests and their ecoystems, while marring the landscape. Ò We have a limited number of ridgelines that are ecologically sensitive and theyÕ re visible from everywhere,Ó Whitworth said. Ò We have ski areas that do a whole lot more marring of ridgelines than windfarms,Ó Klein said.

Klein points out the renewable standards have drawn support from a range of other green groups, including the Vermont Natural Resources Council, the Vermont Public Interest Research Group and Renewable Energy Vermont.

But the head of another environmental group came out against the renewables bill when it was before the Legislature. Ò This bill is more of the same,Ó Annette Smith, executive director of Vermonters for a Clean Environment, testified in February, saying it “perpetuates the disconnect between utilities/rates and consumersÓ and later calling it a Ò shell game.Ó One of the targets of SmithÕ s sharpest criticism is the fact Vermont utilities can purchase lower-value credits from outside sources, such as Hydro-Quebec in Canada, as part of meeting the renewable requirements while selling higher-value wind and solar credits.

“What really disturbs me is that they have set up an endless gold mine for (financiers) and developers to profit off of Vermont’s resources, our landscape, our aesthetics, the people who live here, and give this illusion that weÕ re making all this progress on renewable energy when we have absolutely no right to claim any of the renewable attributes for all of these projects that we’re sacrificing our state for,Ó Smith told Watchdog.org.

There have also been signs of locals bristling at some of the stateÕ s renewable directives.

Members of the board of selectmen in New Haven, Vermont have been frustrated about what they say is a lack of municipal control over the growth of solar arrays that exceed 300 kilowatts. In April, the board announced it is challenging the Public Service Board in court.

“This could significantly impact the development of solar,” New Haven Selectman Doug Tolles told the Addison County Independent. Ò This is somewhat of a test case.Ó Some residents in the town of Charlotte have complained about the construction of Ò industrial solarÓ projects. The townÕ s energy committee endorsed in February what Whitworth called the Ò Rutland Resolution,Ó calling for more local input for all energy generation plans.

Supporters say the renewable energy mandates are an important step towards tackling climate change, predicting a cut of 15 million metric tons in greenhouse gas emissions.

But Whitworth doubts those claims, as well as predictions Ver-

mont ratepayers will save upwards of $275 million. Ò If we industrialize wildlife habitat and obstruct wildlife corridors then weÕ re signing a death notice of large numbers of species,Ó Whitworth said. Ò And weÕ re doing it on a bet that what weÕ re doing actually reduces greenhouse gas emissions.Ó Roper thinks more opposition will spring up, especially as the 75 percent electricity mandate comes closer to being enacted Jan. 1, 2017. Ò YouÕ ve got different environmental philosophies,Ó Roper said. Ò One is, donÕ t build anything anywhere near anybody and preserve all the open land and save all the animals. And theyÕ re very much opposed to this sort of industrialization of the Vermont landscape. Then youÕ ve got the Ô save the climate from global warming’ crowd and they’re basically willing to sacrifice Vermont on the altar of global warming.Ó Ò I think the point is that Vermont, and nowhere, cannot remain a museum piece,Ó Klein said. Ò Power is something that we all need, itÕ s something that we all want. And for too long, people have been able to have the luxury of flipping the light switch and having the power come on and have no idea where their power has come from É ItÕ s the responsible thing to do, No. 1, to make sure the power that we use comes from the cleanest source that we can get it from.Ó Ò There are people who think that we have to save the planet and if that mountain has to go, it has to go,Ó Whitworth said. Ò And then there are those of us who think that the most important response to climate change that we can make is the preservation of our wildlife habitat.Ó Ò ItÕ s too bad weÕ re in this situation where weÕ re in this divide,Ó said Smith. Ò ThereÕ s been tremendous damage to the trust in government in Vermont.Ó

Berry turns himself in to VSP

STARKSBORO Ñ On the evening of Aug 3, Vermont State Police troopers received a tip that Ronald Berry, 45, of Starksboro, was violating his conditions of release and was not abiding by his curfew.

Troopers from the VSP New Haven Barracks responded to his court assigned residence and made several efforts to locate Berry without success. In the afternoon of Aug. 4, Berry arrived at the VSP New Haven Barracks to turn himself in and was subsequently lodged at Marble Valley Correctional Facility for violating numerous conditions of release. He was cited into court Aug. 10.

Woman cited for theft

RUTLAND TOWN Ñ On Aug. 2, at approximately 5:25 p.m., Vermont State Police troopers responded to a theft complaint at the Hannaford Supermarket located at 318 U.S. Route 7 in Rutland Town.

An investigation revealed that Sarah G. Stanley, 32, of Rutland City, left the store without paying for merchandise in her possession.

Stanley was detained by loss prevention until police arrived.

As a result, Stanley was issued a citation to appear at Vermont Superior Court, Criminal Division to answer to the charge of Retail theft, a violation of Title 13 VSA 2575 (1).

Route 4 solar panel damaged

RUTLAND Ñ On July 8, members of the Vermont State Police received information regarding damage caused to a large, solar operated, message board, which is located in a u-turn near the Ira rest stop on U.S. Route 4, near mile marker 11.

The message board is believed to be a total loss.

Do to the location of the damage and the amount of force needed to cause the damage, it is believed a large vehicle, possibly a construction type vehicle, caused the damage.
