FINal QUaRTER

Solar energy part of roof repair projects

CROWN POINT Ñ Some work now could risk a system-wide project later, which is why Crown Point officials have yet to pull the trigger on its state of emergency concerning the water pipe at the main intersection in the hamlet.

The leak at the corner of Route 9N/22, Creek Road and Sugar Hill Road has been visible above ground for several weeks, even leading to accidents when leaking water during the day turned into ice in the freezing evenings.

Supervisor Charles Harrington issued a state of emergency shortly after the leak was discovered, but town officials have been patient in starting the project out of fear other parts of their massive water district revitalization project would be ineligible for state funding. Ò They do not want to fund temporary repairs,Ó AES Northeast engineer Todd Hodgson said during the April 9 water committee meeting at the Crown Point town hall. Ò They want to fund the full thing. This way, you are only going to spend money on this once instead of spending money for a six month temporary fix and having to spend money on it again.Ò CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

Mineville hydro plan presented to public

By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com

PORT HENRY Ñ A vision created in 1990 is one hurdle away from becoming a reality, bringing new life to the pits and underground tunnels that put Mineville on the map.

James Besha, Sr., President of Albany Engineering Corp., presented to the public a plan for the Mineville Pumped Storage Energy Project at Moriah Central School April 8.

Ò It will be a go, the question is when,Ó Besha said about the final federal permit the company submitted recently. Ò It is highly unlikely this would be a no-go.

The regulatory process is long and it could take anywhere from six months to a number of years. I am expecting it will take a year to see the final license be issued. We have been patient to this point and we will continue to be patient.Ó Besha has been exercising his patience since 1990, when he first approached Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava about the potential project.

“When we first talked about this, I have to be frank, I thought he was nuts,Ó Scozzafava said. Ò But it was a dream he hung onto and spent a lot of money on, and now it is becoming a reality.Ó For ScozzafavaÕ s part, the chief administrator of the town pointed to the economic benefits for the municipality.

“The town and the school will benefit with a substantial increase in the tax base,Ó he said.

New roof proposal at Ti schools includes solar paneling

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — School officials are hoping to let the light shine down on new roofs if a $7.3 million capital project is passed by voters May 19.

The capital project, which would help renovate the athletic complex at the Ticonderoga Elementary/Middle School along with improvements to the high school, also calls for $2,171,961 to re-roof the former and $256,964 to re-roof the gymnasium and locker room areas of the latter.

In addition to the re-roofing, the district also wants to install solar arrays on each roof to help with energy production and costs.

Superintendent Dr. John McDonald said the district is closing in on the end of a timeline

which will allow them to look at the solar option. Ò There is a solar tax break that runs out in December of 2016 for those who install the systems,Ó McDonald said. Ò Any project we get approved from the voters would have a six-toeight-monthÕ s lag time with the state. It is very beneficial for the school and these companies to start a solar array with the new roof.Ó McDonald said the potential for solar paneling is greater at the elementary school, which has a lot of open space along the roof and is positioned in a prime area for sunlight.

He added the roofs are the top priority when it comes to the capital project.

Along with the roofs, the project also calls for work on the high school portico to relieve leaking.

Board president Fred LaVallie said he was

concerned the portico issue was not fully addressed. McDonald said the current project would relieve problems with the structure, but further work could be done through grant funding.

Other improvements to infrastructure will include IT upgrades at the elementary/middle

school, renovation of the planetarium to serve as a STEM and/or distance learning classroom, and replacement of several windows along with an auditorium renovation component.

The bond resolution referendum will take place along with annual school budget and board vote Tuesday, May 19.

A redesign of the planetarium is part of the projects proposed as part of a capital project.

Fair should serve up a little liquid gold

E

ssex County lawmakers have signed off on the sale of alcohol at this yearÕ s county fair.

Cheers.

But last yearÕ s debut rollout, despite heated debate between the supervisors, fell flat.

Fairgoers had to follow a trail of breadcrumbs to the vendors, who were consigned to the groundsÕ netherworld somewhere between the exhaust fumes from demolition racers and an animal paddock.

When they got there, patrons appeared to be unaware that many local brews were on tap, not just a trip on the Silver Bullet.

Hnnngggh.

For such a fiery debate, the execution was decidedly anti-climatic.

While discussion this year was watereddown Ñ Controversy Liteª Ñ weÕ re afraid of an equally-diluted repeat.

This year, organizers need to get wise to the regionÕ s bubbling craft beer biz and bill our local producers as a marquee act, putting them on even footing with whatever whizbang ride or entertainer theyÕ ve got lined up.

These mom and pop brewers are some of our regionÕ s brightest assets, creating jobs and generating local spending in a state that has recently been ranked dead last in economic competitiveness.

Like the local food movement, interest in craft beers, ciders and wines is crackling.

On a national level, beer production rose 42 percent last year.

To accommodate the trend and encourage local economic development, the state passed a series of laws to lessen regulations on farm breweries, cideries and wineries.

Since 2012, 57 new farm breweries opened across New York.

To land the licenses, these operations must pledge to use specific levels of locally grown ingredients, a measure that drives demand for crops like hops, which can be grown by the brewer or purchased from a local grower.

Additional economic ripples come from the off-site retail outlets, restaurants and tastings that are permitted as part of these operations.

Across the board, the increase in alcohol-related start-ups in New York reflects a state hungry for keeping their drinking local.

Microbreweries, or operations who are capped at producing a maximum of 75,000 barrels annually, have skyrocketed by 160 percent in the past four years.

Wineries are up 50 percent from 2011; farm wineries, up 90 percent, while farm cideries and distilleries and brewpubs have also multiplied.

This is all good stuff.

So whatÕ s it got to do with us?

These entrepreneurial spirits are fermenting throughout the North Country, too.

Groups like the Adirondack Regional Chamber of Commerce, for instance, are working to connect producers to the public with initiatives like the Adirondack Craft Beverage Trail, a do-it-yourself tour showcasing 14 breweries in Warren, Washington and Saratoga counties, with more to be added later this year.

Within Essex County, a vibrant scene has sprung up, with breweries like the Blue Line in Saranac Lake, Paradox in Schroon Lake and AuSable Brewing Company in Keeseville, just to name three, adding color and vitality to the gastronomic landscape.

Fair organizers need to hop on board and embrace what we already have and harness these drivers of economic development Ñ not run away from them.

A big part of this is using the annual fair as a magnet.

We understand that for local officials, it’s a big step to simply authorize the sale of alcohol, much less aggressively promote its usage.

We also understand the concerns of the skeptical Ñ substance abuse remains a pervasive problem in the North Country.

Since the fair is designed to serve as a family-friendly event and model for the youth, we should safeguard those elements and ensure that its character remains consistent with those values.

We get the law enforcement concerns, too.

But the argument that the Agricultural Society needs to rely on alcoholic beverage sales or wine-tasting events to maintain revenues is a straw man: ItÕ s not about luring in locals with suds, but taking pride in our local products and sharing them with folks across the region.

Doing so would be a win-win across the board and would also drum up advance interest for the regionÕ s additional beer-related events later that fall.

ThereÕ s no reason why a showcase of local producers shouldn’t attract scores of aficionados from across the region, who will take their tipples and lift all boats while doing so.

Maybe the fair will even be eligible for the recent $3 million in craft beverage grant programs the state rolled out last year for promotion and marketing.

Beer, wine and cider producers produce liquid gold. ItÕ d be a shame for their contributions to go unrecognized. Ñ Denton Publications Editorial Board, Dan Alexander, Keith Lobdell and John Gereau

ILH has disdain for dental office patients

Distinguishing truth

To the Times of TI: Most of you are familiar with the story of Ticonderoga Dental. You know about InterLakes Health firing members without cause or warning.

You know how they abandoned thousands of dental patients with now reasonable plan. You know how they selected which employees to keep without considering guidelines of seniority or those much likely to operate a successful clinic. You can formulate your own explanation for their actions, they never adequately shared any plan with us.

Now, the hospital has expressed its ongoing distain of the dental patients of Essex County. While I recognize the right Dr. Moss has to move on to a new position, he and the hospital gave the patients one dayÕ s notice when the article appeared in the Times of Ti Thursday, March 26. It is typical of how the hospital informs the public after there is any chance that positive action can be taken or even discussed. Unfortunately, dental health care in the North Country is driven by administrators who have no hands on experience of patient care, nor any experience of dental clinical administration. The actions are described as Ò not being personalÓ , but for those suffering the results it is pitiful and very personal.

When we are displaced on Feb. 13, 2014, we spent one week in shock.

Then we went to work. With the help of community friends we found location in Ticonderoga. Renovations began. Then we negotiated to obtain the wasted equipment of ILH. Obviously, we are not above using shame as a tactic! We knew there was a full schedule of patients that ILH could not responsibly treat with one doctor, so we asked for the charts of those patients, or even the names of the patients who had seen Dr. Cepelak and Debbie so we could contact them, but ILH refused. Despite the fact that within weeks the hospital knew exactly were our new practice would be located, it was not unusual for members of the ILH Dental Staff to knowingly give disinformation. While describing such actions as unprofessional is accurate, I must again use the term pitiful.

On May 15, 2014 we were already seeing patients in our new location, just two blocks from the hospital on Lake George Avenue. We used the same fee schedule as ILH and we did accept Medicaid and Fidelis, the only new provider in Essex County in years. In 10 months we have seen over a thousand different patients, including 500 Medicaid and Fidelis patients. We are busy, happy and here to stay!

But, there is a dark truth now in Ticonderoga. No one can treat all of the patients abandoned by ILH. Within a week of the meeting I had with Rod Boula (acting CEO of ILH) about the possible closing of the ILH Dental, they were informing the patients that they were no longer scheduling patients (they had stopped accepting new Medicaid and Fidelis patients when they eliminated Dr. Cepelak) and referring them to Ticonderoga Dental and describing them as Ò Dr. CepelakÕ s patientsÓ . Sorry, they may have been Dr. DepelakÕ s patients on Feb. 13, 2014, could have been Dr. CepelakÕ s patients on May 15, 2014. They stopped being such when ILH refused to give them us that time.

Now patients are calling Ticonderoga Dental, some cursing at us because Ò where are they supposed to go?Ó I ask the same question, but any problem is not caused by us. We will try to serve every emergency patient we can, regardless of your insurance status, the best that we can. Medicaid and Fidelis patients must realize that for every irresponsible patient who fails to appear for two appointments, there are five who would like to be accepted into the practice. For every patient who complains about our fees your insurance uses as basis may not be the Ò usual and customaryÓ (higher) current fees. The fees accepted by providers from Medicaid and Fidelis are about one third of our usual fees. They may be one fifth of fees of other providers in the area. If I am asked to redo a procedure performed at ILH in the last two years, I am not paid at all. I would still have overhead for the procedure, with no income. No business can operate under those terms.

My advice is to go to Inter Lakes Health Dental Clinic and ask for your records. Bring them with you when you go to Ticonderoga Dental or somewhere else. If they suggest that some other dentist may be coming, still demand your records. You may want to go somewhere else, or need to go somewhere else because no one knows what ILH may do.

In addition, here is a list of places to express you dissatisfaction with the status of dental care in the North Country: Congressman Elise Stefanik 743-0964, Senator Kristin Gillibrand gillibrand.senate.com.gov, Senator Charles Schumer schumer.senate.com.gov, Essex County Dept. of Health lbeers@co.essex.ny.us, Rod Boula CEO ECH 873-6377 ext. 3002, New York State Dept. of Health health.state.ny.us, Howard Zucker, MD New York State Dental Assoc 465-0044, NYS Medicaid 1-800-541-2831, NYS Fidelis 1-888-343-3547, State Senator Dist. 45 Ms. Betty Little 743-0968, State Assemblyman Dist. 114 Mr. Dan Stec stecd@assembly.state.ny.us.

Dr. Larry Cepelak and the staff of Ticonderoga Dental Ticonderoga

To the Times of Ti: In his April 11 PublisherÕ s Column, Dan Alexander stated that he Ò was always taught the truth was the easiest information to provide as it requires nothing but the simple facts.Ó ItÕ s unfortunate, but thatÕ s just not the way things work in the real world.

Distinguishing the truth from the remainder requires knowledge won by considering various sources, all of them with at least some skepticism, and most importantly weighing not just their rhetoric but instead the actual evidence (or lack thereof) behind them. Simply accepting the word of some trusted source, be she/he the President of the United States, a member of Congress, a favorite television or radio program anchor or an editor for a local newspaper, is a sure way to become misinformed. (Especially when no few of those trusted sources mean to misinform when it suits their purpose.) Applying filters such as our core values, our faith and our common sense to whatever we hear, as Mr. Alexander suggests, wonÕ t help matters and might well make them worse; becoming genuinely knowledgeable is the only real solution.

Take as an example the topic of climate-changing pollution (aka global warming). A great many scientists put in a lot of work to produce evidence on the subject, and in some cases individually but more often in union they speak out to warn everyone where that evidence leads. But a great many politicians, talk show hosts, newspaper columnists, etc. work just as hard to discourage people from heeding that warning. Purportedly in the interest of being Ò fair and balancedÓ or supporting Ò free speech,Ó news media seriously exacerbate the situation by presenting these opposing points of view as if they were equivalent. People then accept them as such and choose whichever appeals to them most, never realizing that they could and should look past the words to the evidence (and a few scientists have put in a lot of work to make that evidence easy for the public to review, too). The result is unending debate instead of much-needed progress.

When journalists abandon their responsibility to ferret out the truth in favor of simply presenting all viewpoints, and the public is too trusting or lazy to ferret it out for themselves, unwelcome truth will always lose to misinformation or the conflict that arises between them.

Ads make difference in fight To the Times of Ti: Is anyone else disturbed by the Tips From a Former Smoker ads on TV? The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) just announced a new campaign that started March 30. IÕ ve seen one new ad so far. JuliaÕ s story. Julia smoked for more than 20 years before developing colon cancer at age 49. Her Ò tipÓ is to have a strong stomach. She explains that if you get colon cancer and have to have your colon removed, you will need to have an ostomy bag taped to your stomach to collect your waste. She talks about always being worried that the bag will smell or leak when she is in public. Julia is incredibly brave to speak so honestly, but as I watched I wonderedÉ will her story and this campaign really make a difference?

The good news is evidence suggests that these ads do make a difference. According to the CDC, smokers report that the ads inspire them to try to quit. And we know that more smokers are really trying after seeing these ads because there is an increase in the number of calls to the Quitline. Take for instance the last campaign that launched in July 2014.

During the three months prior to that campaign, the highest number of calls in one month from Clinton, Essex, Franklin and Hamilton counties combined was 206. In July, there were 242 calls (NYS Quitline). That’s a fifteen percent increase!

So as much as I donÕ t want to see the painful ways that tobacco has effected peopleÕ s lives, IÕ m thankful people like Julia are willing to share their stories. They really are making a difference and saving lives.

Music has charms

I

donÕ t know about you, but a lot of things remind me of song titles or lyrics. Music is special for me and for many. I played it for decades on the radio and listen to it daily in my old age. I wonÕ t expound on the psychological benefits. I’m sure youÕ re aware of how music makes you feel.

You’re no doubt familiar with the phrase: Ò Music has charms to sooth a savage breast.Ó Most folks credit Shakespeare, but the words were written

by William Congreve for the 1697 play Ò The Mourning Bride.Ó

by Gordie Little It’s the first line of the play and has been misquoted thousands of times. Perhaps you know someone who substituted Ò beastÓ for Ò breast.Ó Hey, nobodyÕ s perfect.

Once I get a song in my head, it repeats over and over almost ad nauseam, sometimes for days. Does that happen to you? This month, April songs have been on my mind.

Can you name a few in your memory banks?

One such that I can never hear enough was the title tune in a 1957 movie entitled Ò April LoveÓ , starring Pat Boone with Shirley Jones.

Boone, wearing his famous Ò white bucks,Ó made a number one hit of it.

Another one that comes to mind is Ò April Showers.Ó It dates to 1921 and I can hear Al Jolson crooning it in my head. I played it often for my Sunday Morning of Solid Gold audience back in the day. It was written for the Broadway musical Ò Bombo.Ó Jolson recorded it several times and I also found at least three dozen other recordings of that great song.

We must mention Ò April in ParisÓ with its wonderful line, Ò I never knew the charm of spring. I never met it face to face. I never knew my heart could sing.Ó Did you know it was written for the 1932 Broadway musical Ò Walk a Little FasterÓ ?

Freddie Martin recorded a hit version in 1933.

I have known a number of people with the name April. One of them I dubbed Ò My little angel.Ó Some of you might recall that we worked day and night in a chilly outside tent with April Lavalley who desperately needed a double-lung transplant some years ago.

Sadly, she left us before the surgery could take place. I think of her often and drove past her school in the northern tier of Clinton County the other day to see how tall the tree had grown, which we planted in her honor.

Another beautiful young woman named April Lavalley grew up in our community, moved to the west coast and became a prominent attorney. Some time back, I turned on the TV and almost fell off my recliner as I watched April and her fiancé appearing on a game show.

IÕ ll list a few more famous Aprils and you can add your own: April Hunter, April Lee Hernandez, April Peterson, and April Ross.

There are many more. April was a very popular girlÕ s name in the 1980s. I scoured the Internet and learned the original word meant Ò second,Ó but any Aprils I ever knew were Number 1.

Although the sun is brilliant as I write this on April 13, this month also puts me in mind of some favorite rain songs. Go ahead. You blurt out some titles while I list a few: “Baby the Rain Must FallÓ , Ò Blue Eyes CryinÕ in the RainÓ , Ó Come Rain or Come ShineÓ , Ò DonÕ t Let the Rain Come DownÓ , Ò It Never Rains in Southern CaliforniaÓ , Ò Rain on the RoofÓ , Ò Rain Rain Go AwayÓ , Ò Raindrops Keep Falling On My HeadÓ , Ò Rhythm of the RainÓ and that wonderful old folk song, Ò It AinÕ t Gonna Rain No More.Ó Then, of course, there is that ditty starting, Ò Playmate, come out and play with meÓ we intoned as little kids. How did you sing it? We used, Ò Shout down my rain barrel,Ó while others substituted Ò cryÓ or Ò lookÓ for the word Ò shout.Ó Kaye and I love to sing and dance to the old songs. It keeps our marriage young. Happy April to every one of you. Ò And weÕ ll be jolly friends for ever more.Ó

Champlain Bridge Run set Crown Point race slated May 16 CROWN POINT Ñ The New York/Vermont 5K Champlain Bridge Run was supposed to be a one-time affair to celebrate the 2012 opening of the new span connecting the two states.

That was the plan, but the race has been such a hit itÕ s back for another run. The fourth annual The New York/Vermont 5K Champlain Bridge Run will be contested Saturday, May 16, at 10 a.m.

Packet pick up and day race registration will be 8:309:45 a.m. on the grounds of the British fort ruins within the Crown Point State Historic Site. People can also register in advance by mailing registration forms to Nancy Ockrin at PO Box 33, Crown Point 12928. Registration forms are available online at the LaChute Road Runners Club website, lachute.us Registration fee before May 1 is $20 and includes a T shirt. After May 1 the fee is $25 without a shirt. A family rate is available, costing $10 for each child who registers with a parent. Checks should be made payable to the LaChute Road Runners Club.

For more information contact Ockrin at momockrin@ gmail.com, call 597-3754 or go online at www.lachute.us The 3.1-mile race is sponsored by the Ticonderoga-based LaChute Road Runners Club.

The course has been changed since the inaugural event. In 2012 the race started on the bridge. This spring the race will again begin at the Samuel deChamplain Lighthouse in the New York State campsite and follow a pedestrian path along the Lake Champlain shore, under the bridge, to the historic site. The race will finish near the historic site museum in front of the bridge. The course is mostly grass and dirt with some asphalt. Ò ItÕ s a great course,Ó Matt Karkoski of the LaChute Road Runners said. Ò The scenery is absolutely beautiful, there are no traffic issues and the course is a lot of fun. I love this course.Ó Karkoski won the race in 2014, covering the 3.1 miles in 20 minutes, 32 seconds. Katie Mack claimed womenÕ s top honors in 20:41.

The New York/Vermont 5K Champlain Bridge Run was part of a two-day celebration marking the opening of the new bridge in 2012. That celebration featured entertainment, a boat flotilla, a car show, vendors, a dance, fireworks and the race.

That celebration is over, but the New York/Vermont 5K Champlain Bridge Run lives on.

TiNADA plans next meeting for April 22 TICONDEROGA Ñ The TiNADA Coalition is hosting a Community Forum Wednesday, April 22, in the Ò FishbowlÓ auditorium at the Ticonderoga Elementary/ Middle School, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. The Forum will be structured around the wellorganized content of an excellent video: Ò From Pills to HeroinÓ . The video addresses the reality of the problem with Rx opiate drugs, the various pathways into addiction, the life of an addict, the impact of addiction on families and friends and options for treatment and prevention. North Country and local experts in Law Enforcement, Medicine, Prevention, Treatment and Recovery will speak to various aspects of the issue during the evening. There will be time for questions from the audience and dialogue with the speakers.

The speakers include: Matt Watts, Ticonderoga EMS Coordinator; Mark Johns, Chief, Ticonderoga Police Department; Kristy Sprague, District Attorney, Essex County; Sue Gregory, Supervisor, St. JosephÕ s Outpatient Clinic; Dr. Toni Sturm, Interlakes Health Emergency Dept. Physician; Phil Kneller, Social Worker and Margie Tierney, Nurse, Ticonderoga High School; Katrina F, in long term recovery from opiate addiction and Barb W, parent of a young adult in opiate recovery. The forum moderator will be Pastor Charlie Bolstridge of the Cornerstone Alliance Church in Ticonderoga, assisted by Doug Terbeek, Executive Director of the Prevention Team.

They hope to leave the forum with input from those attending the forum as to what next steps would be helpful to them.

A group of concerned citizens from various sectors of the community came together in 2013 and formed Ticonderoga Neighbors Addressing Drug Abuse (TiNADA) in an attempt to address some of the issues arising from substance abuse in our town. Early in the process Police Chief Mark Johns said that Ò 40 percent of the arrests made by the Ticonderoga Police can be attributed to an underlying substance abuse problem.Ó This problem not only contributes to our townÕ s law enforcement expenses but impacts the quality of life and the health and safety of our residents.Ó Consider participating in this informative, free event and become more knowledgeable about this issue which is currently impacting the Ticonderoga Community.

Refreshments will be available!

State police: Moriah man had “countless” child porn images

By Ryan Edwards

Smith was arrested on Jan. 5 and charged with promoting and possession of an obscene performance by a child.

In the meantime, Smith was arrested twice more on aggrevated DWI charges, including one in Vermont.

Smith was arraigned in Keene and remanded to the Essex County Jail in lieu of $25,000 cash bail, or $50,000 bond, where he has remained ever since.

ryan@denpubs.com RAY BROOK Ñ A Moriah man with a long rapsheet for sex crimes was charged Tuesday with an additional pair of felonies after authorities discovered Ò countlessÓ images of child pornography on devices seized from his Witherbee home.

Kirkland C. Smith, 53, was charged with one additional count each of promoting and possessing an obscene sexual performance by a child.

He was arraigned in town of Moriah court and remanded to the Essex County Jail in Lewis in lieu of $100,000 cash bail or $250,000 bond.

Smith had been in custody since January, when he was arrested on the original pair of child pornography charges.

DWI ARREST Smith was originally arrested and charged with DWI last October after he crashed his car on Route 73 in Keene.

His blood alcohol content at the time of the arrest was .36 percent.

During the investigation, the responding

Smith officer noticed a questionable image on an electronic device in his car, said a state police spokesperson.

When Smith declined officers’ request to review his electronic equipment the following day, state police eventually obtained a search warrant for his devices, where they found numerous images of child pornography.

TWO NEW CHARGES This weekÕ s arrest comes after state police have concluded their review of devices found at SmithÕ s home, a laborious process that took three months.

His bail and bond have now been increased to $100,000 and $200,000, respectively.

Smith is a registered sex offender and has been arrested in other states for possession of child pornography and child molestation, including Rhode Island, Louisiana and Vermont.

He was arraigned in the Moriah Town Court and remanded to Essex County Jail in lieu bail or bond.

He is scheduled to appear in court in May.

Crown Point water surveys near completion

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com CROWN POINT Ñ Only a few more surveys are needed to save Crown Point water district users over $300 in potential costs.

Jody Olcott of the Essex County Industrial Development Agency (IDA) reported to members of the Crown Point water committee April 9 on the status of the town-wide economic survey, designed to give an accurate reflection of the financial health of the residents of the water district. Ò There is one street where we only need two surveys, but with Main Street we are going to have to push on,Ó Olcott said. Ò We need seven more completed surveys to reach the 95 percent threshold. I have 14 properties there which have not completed surveys, and we need half.Ó Supervisor Charles Harrington said based on the surveyÕ s received so far, the estimated household income will decrease substantially. Ò It looks as if we are going to be closer to centering around $42,000 when we were previously estimated at $53,000,Ó Harrington said.

County planner Mike Mascarenas said the difference would be substantial for water district residents as to where their water rates would have to be before the state would help fund a project for the system. Ò You are currently at paying $764 per user before the state would step in,Ó he said. Ò The new numbers would change that to $493.Ó While Main Street nears completion, improvements to Pearl Street may be delayed because of the inaction of residents. Ò Pearl Street is not close,Ó Olcott said. Ò I need 12 out of the 14 properties there.Ó Ò Pearl Street could be a target down the road, but the emergency the town is facing in the water system is located on Main Street, and that is the emergency,Ó Mascarenas said. Ò So that is the focus then,Ó Harrington answered. Ò I hate to tell people they are holding the town hostage by not filling these out, but, in effect, that is what they are doing.Ó The next meeting of the Crown Point water committee is scheduled for Thursday, May 7, 10 a.m. at the town hall.

Water continues to flow from a pipeline break under the intersection of Route 9N/22, Creek Road and Sugar Hill Road in Crown Point while officials wait for word on if the town will receive funding for its system-wide project.

Crown Point break Continued from page 1 County planner Mike Mascarenas told committee members he has been on the phone with state officials daily and should have a resolution to the funding issue soon.

“I have been on the phone to the Governor’s Office talking about this project, now with a state of emergency, and the need to get this done,Ó Mascarenas said. Ò Give me one more week to talk to the state. If it does not look good, then our hands are tied and we have to move.Ó Sue Kennedy of the New York State Department of Health told committee members as long as the town receives an assurance funding will be coming, work can begin and be reimbursed. Ò In the past we have been able to roll work done into funding even before a determination was made,Ó Kennedy said. Ò We just have to make sure all the proper steps are taken. It is not a total leap of faith, and we will not know until September for sure, but if we get to the point where the state says we are over the funding line and monies would be available, we could feel comfortable.Ó Hodgson said once they receive word, the bidding process could take up to three weeks, with work able to begin afterwards, which would most likely put the start of the project after Memorial Day celebrations in Crown Point. Ò The fact is if you can save $200,000 by going out to bid, why not do that,Ó Mascarenas said.

The issue

Along with the leak at the intersection, Hodgson said another part of the current water system issue deals with a pair of Pressure Release Valves (PRVÕ s), which led to the break at the intersection as well as another spot along Route 9N/22 between the intersection in question and the firehouse. Ò I am afraid of the break, but I am more afraid of the PRV,Ó Hodgson said. Ò A lot of what has happened is because of the PRVÕ s and that cannot happen again.Ó Ò If the PRV breaks or if the pipe goes, we are not going to be able to fix it,” Kevin Gadway, a town maintenance employee, said. Ò Then you are going to have that entire section without water.Ó Ò I would like to start digging tomorrow because things are getting worse,Ó water district superintendent Gary Allen said. Ò We are waiting for money we may not get and we are not doing anything. We are waiting on the state and hoping something does not happen and we have to shut the school down because there is no water in the line.Ó Harrington said while he agreed something needs to be done sooner rather than later, the town has to make sure it keeps the full picture of a completed water system in mind. Ò This all has to be done so we can say we have an excellent, complete water system which will serve the residents of this town for years and years to come.Ó The next meeting of the Crown Point water committee is scheduled for Thursday, May 7, 10 a.m. at the town hall.

ave you signed up yet for our Spring Bowling Tournament? The North Country SPCA would like to remind you about our two upcoming dates for the bowling tournament which had originally been planned for February.

Two dates and locations make this yearÕ s tournament twice the fun.

The first will be held on April 18 at Willsboro Lanes, and the second, on May 2 at the Mineville VFW Lanes. There will be two shifts, the first at 11 a.m. and the second at 2 p.m for both tournaments.

The cost is $20 per player for a four-person team for three games of 9-pin. We are excited to be able to offer a choice of days, and for real bowling enthusiasts, why not attend both?

There will be an array of prizes and a 50/50 raffle, all to raise funds for our furry friends!

For more information or to register, please

Our featured pet this week is Kilo, a purebred Doberman Pinscher who has had several homes in the past, but never found his Ò forever home.Ó He would love to find someone who has experience with his breed and a soft space in their hearts for an extra-large dog like him. Kilo gets along well with everyone he meets and enjoys the company of other dogs as long as they donÕ t try to bully him.

He has an outgoing, friendly personality and is such a handsome fellow, we know he will find a home soon! Kilo does have an extra-large appetite to go along with his size, and likes to steal food from the table if he thinks he can get away with it.

With clear expectations and a stable home, we believe heÕ ll do great.

Could that home be yours?

Microenterprise Grant accepting applicants

Hydro plan Continued from page 1 Currently, the assessed property value of the town comes in around $205 million.

Besha said the proposed energy project would be assessed at $265 million, more than doubling the current overall value. Ò I would not give any set in stone numbers, but when they assess these projects, they assess them off the cost involved in creation and materials, so the assessment should be at the $265 million price tag,Ó he said.

Besha added the project would be funded entirely through private contributions. Ò We have had no lack of private entities who have wanted to help on this,Ó he said. Ò Federal or state grants will not be expected, applied for or desired. We do not want them. If you ask for help and the help does not come through, then you are done.Ó Ò ItÕ s the real thing that really excites me,Ó Scozzafava said. Ò It is not dependent on any type of government funding and will all be done through private funding.Ó Along with a boost to the tax base, BeshaÕ s company will also be providing several infrastructure improvements, including renovating Linney Field, water district expansions, and the creation of a new building which, once used as a construction hub for the project, will be given to the town for use as a highway garage.

Following the presentation, a number of audience members asked questions of Besha, ranging from potential environmental impacts from actions such as draining water out of the mines and the potential for the ground to shake, much like it did when the mines were abandoned and started to fill with water in the 1970s. Ò We do not expect any changes in the ground surface with this project,Ó Besha said. Ò We will monitor the seismic activity.Ó Besha also addressed concerns raised over the potential of upsetting bat colonies (as far as they know, none are located in the mines and they would make sure to keep any out), and any potential effects to local wells (there should be none, but

the company will be extending the water district into the mine areas as a safe-guard on behalf of the town).

The Mineville Pumped Storage Energy Project will involve moving water between levels within the 2,500-feet deep mines, using the Don B and Harmony Mines. Water will be pumped to an upper level reservoir, using surplus energy, while creating energy when sent into the lower reservoir through power turbines. Ò We expect the way this will work is as a bank and we will serve people who either need to store energy or purchase it,Ó Besha said. Ò We are not storing actual energy, we are just moving it through the hydro-electric process from one time to another.Ó Besha said the creation of the project will take two or three years in construction, which will provide between 100 and 200 jobs in the area. While he said the contracts for work would have to be given to specialists from outside the area, Besha estimated 70 to 80 percent of the work force could be hired locally.

“It is a very specific work,” he said. Ò You have to want to work underground, and deep underground.Ó Afterwards, the company would employ between five and 15 people to handle

the operation.

Besha said his expectation of the timeline would be for work to start in 2018 and the plant to be operational in 2021. Ò This is a guess, though, and I am the first one to admit it,” he said. “The regulators operate on their own pace and they have a series of laws they have to follow very closely.Ó Archie Rosenquist, a former Old Republic employee who worked in the mines, said he attended the meeting to learn more about the proposed new life for his former workplace. Ò My curiosity was if they were going to get into some of the old work, but that is not going to be the case,Ó he said. Ò They are going to have to do a lot of work because it is a honeycomb down there.

There are areas 500 to 600 feet across and you can shine your flashlight out and not see the other side.Ó Asked if he would like to return to the mines when the project is completed, Rosenquist quickly said, Ò no, no... IÕ ve been down there enough.Ó ABOVE: Audience members listen to James Besha talk about the Mineville Pumped Storage Energy Project at Moriah Central School April 8.

Schroon Lake Central budget meets state tax cap Bus, reserve props also on May 19 ballot

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com SCHROON Ñ Members of the Board of Education gave their blessing for the 2015-16

financial plan to be passed onto the voters of the district last month.

The Schroon Lake Central School budget calls for a 2.3 percent increase in spending, from $7,563,002 in 2014-15

to $7,737,640 in the coming school year, a difference of $174,638.

The tax levy will see an increase of 1.1 percent, from $6,163,211 in 2014-15 to $6,257271 in 2015-16, a difference of $94,060.

The levy benefits from an increase of $34,479 in state aid (from $958,291 to $992,770) and a $44,599 increase in fund balance use ($380,000 to $424,599). Ò We did not get a lot of GAP adjustment and we get about half of the state average,Ó interim superintendent James Polunci said. Ò We are right on the cap number,Ó school treasurer Danielle Fosella said. Ò There were no main issues. We have a negotiated contract with teachers and support staff in place. No cuts were made, so we are pretty much stable.Ó Fosella added the fund balance is still strong. Ò We hope to be able to keep the budget going for three years with fund balance aid without any glitches,Ó Fosella said.

Polunci said a previous report stating there was a retirement in the district were false.

He added the district was able to add courses without increasing staff through Ò some creative scheduling,Ó including the return of a driverÕ s ed course. Ò People have been asking for many years to put the class back in,Ó Fosella said. Ò We have all the equipment here

still, so it will be an easy transition, and a teacher on staff (Mike Sharp) who is certified to teach the course.Ó Polunci said one area not impacting the budget as much as in previous years was retirement and health insurance, which saw an overall decrease between the two categories. Ò The ERS and TRS went way down and health insurance was only a two percent increase,Ó he said. Ò It trends five years behind the stock market and for the past five years, it has trended down.Ó Along with the budget, district voters will also go to the polls to vote on a pair of referendums, the first authorizing the purchase of a 65-passenger bus at a cost no higher than $104,000.

The second will be to place $300,000 into a maintenance reserve account. Ò We put $300,000 into a reserve last year and this will be the second year we are asking to add to the reserve account,Ó Polunci said.

Voters will also decide one school board position, with the winner serving a threeyear term. Those interested in running for election are asked to submit a completed petition to the district offices by 5 p.m.

Monday, April 20.

The public hearing on the Schroon Lake Central School budget will take place Tuesday, May 5, 7 p.m. in the school auditorium. The vote will take place Tuesday, May 19.

Schroon Supervisor Mike Marnell presented World of Life’s Mike Calhoun (left) and Seagle Music Colony General Director Tony Kostecki (right) with a plaque to commemorate their respective anniversaries on Monday, April 6 at the Government Center in Elizabethtown. “I can’t tell you how much the town of Schroon appreciates these two organizations,” said Marnell.

Au SABLE FORKS Ñ While it was a shaky opener for Moriah ace Chris Clarke, the Viking bats provided enough offense for the lefty to score a season-opening win, 7-5, April 13.

While walking 14 Patriots, Clarke was able to strike out 11, several at key times as the Vikings thwarted a seventh inning comeback bid, holding a 7-2 lead after four innings with Au Sable Valley scoring one in the sixth and two in the seventh.

Billy Larrow had three hits for the Vikings, while Clarke helped his cause from the plate with a double as part of the six-hit day for Moriah.

Waiting for ice out to turn the trout on!

I

t appears the long, hard, Adirondack winter may finally be coming to a conclusion, and while many local anglers are still hauling around their ice fishing gear, it’s time to get out your trout gear as the annual Ò ice outÓ grows near.

However, IÕ ve been told the smelt are still running, and anglers continue to fill their buckets with these silvery treasures of the local lakes.

Rising temperatures combined with cloudless skies will expedite the ice out process, which typically occurs in a series of fits and starts.

However, when the ice finally breaks-up, brook trout fanatics are often confronted with fast and furious action.

During the early season, I focus attention around the inlets and outlets of the ponds and lakes. Although the annual smelt run began on March 5 with the Sap Moon, theyÕ re still lakers, salmon, browns and brook trout in areas of moving water.

In the valleys, the spring floods have not been as destructive as theyÕ ve been in the past, and the slow, steady thaw is good for both the fisheries and the local communities.

IÕ ve already put in a few afternoons on the streams and rivers, which are at fishable levels, but still very cold. Although I’ve rarely hit the ponds in April, it never hurts to look.

Reports indicate salmon have already been moving into the tributaries of Lake Champlain, including the Boquet, Ausable and the Saranac.

Opening Day

The next important Opening Day in the region arrives on April 25, as the Youth Wild Turkey Hunt weekend precedes the Spring Turkey Season on the weekend of April 25-26, 2015.

The Youth Wild Turkey Hunt provides an opportunity for junior hunters (ages 12-15) to spend time afield with experienced adult hunters. This mentoring opportunity provides youth hunters with the essential knowledge and skills to become safe and responsible members of the hunting community.

In addition, the youth hunt provides mentors with an outstanding opportunity to instill newcomers with the proper courtesies, and ethics necessary to fully enjoy the excitement and camaraderie of the hunt.

Eligible youth hunters must be between 12, and 15 years old age, and in possession of a current hunting license and a turkey permit.

All youth hunters must be accompanied by a licensed adult, hunter, as required by law for a junior hunter. Youth of 12 or 13 years age must be accompanied by a parent, legal guardian or by a person over 21 years of age who has written permission from their parents or a legal guardian.

GRANVILLE Ñ In a battle of arguably the best pitchers from each section, it was Section VIIÕ s Ryan Trudeau out-dueling WarrensburgÕ s Shea Irish in a 3-2 season opening win in the annual Granville tournament April 7.

The Sentinel ace pitched the complete game, allowing solo runs in the first and seventh innings while scattering only four hits in the win.

Trudeau helped himself out at the plate with two hits and RBI, while Domanic Banish had a pair of hits, including a triple. The duo had all four markers for Ticonderoga.

Irish struck out 12 for the Burghers in a losing effort.

Seat belt law

Anglers and paddlers who plan to jumpstart the trout season with a trip to the rivers, ponds or lakes should be aware of Section 40, Subdivision 1 of the NYS Navigation Law. The new, Ô Cold Water BoatingÕ regulation is similar to NY stateÕ s mandatory seatbelt law and covers all boaters in vessels under 21 feet in length during the months when immersion in cold water poses the greatest danger to boaters. A seat cushion doesnÕ t count!

The law requires Òeac h person Ét o wear a securely fastened United States Coast Guard approved personal flotation device of an appropriate size when such vessel is underway between November first and May first.” Failure to wear a lifejacket is a violation of the Navigation Law and is punishable by a fine of not less than $25 or more than $100, applicable to either the operator or owner of the vessel.

NYS Bear Season Summary

A recent release from the NYSDEC indicates New York bear hunters took 1,628 black bears during the 2014 hunting seasons, added by a record harvest in the Southern Zone.

In the Northern Zone, hunters took a total of 518 bears, which is about average with recent years. Bear harvests in the Northern Zone tends to alternate between strong harvests during the early season be based primarily on cycles of food availability. This season, many hunters were successful during the early season, taking 291 bears, which was above average. However, the harvest in the regular season dropped to 159 bears, which was about 16 percent below average.

The heaviest bear taken dressed out at 646 pounds, and was taken in the Town of Wells, in the Great South Woods of Hamilton County. There was also a 613-pound bear taken in the Town of Jewett in Green County and three Ulster County bears that weighed between 500-550 pounds. Scaled weights of dressed bears were submitted for 30 percent of the bears taken in 2014.

The seasonÕ s take also included three bears that were originally tagged in Pennsylvania, with two from New Jersey, and one from Massachusetts. They had been tagged for a variety of reasons including research, nuisance response, relocated urban bears, or released rehabilitated bears.

A pair of paddlers took to the local streams despite the winter-like conditions. Although winter conditions persist in the deep woods , the snow pack has been eraced on the south facing slopes. Despite the open forests, many of the smaller brooks retain winter’s hardcap.

Angling Etiquette

As you take to the water this season, make sure your outings donÕ t infringe on the experience of fellow anglers.

Show respect for the fish, the waters, and above all, fellow anglers. Use common sense, and common courtesy, traits that just arenÕ t as common as they used to be.

DonÕ t be rude. Fishing is intended to relieve stress, not induce it.

If you miss a take, release your Òt rout-rage,Ó in your church voice.

DonÕ t approach a fellow angler, and quiz them about where the fish are, or what they’re taking. If they want to share this information, theyÕ ll let you know.

Never infringe on another anglerÕ s territory, whether in the stream or on a boat. The Adirondack Park encompasses over 30,000 miles of rivers and streams, and with more than 3,000 lakes and backwoods ponds, there’s simply no reason to fish within casting distance of other anglers.

Never assume it’s okay to fish a pool just because a person is sitting down or standing without a rod. They may be surveying the water, resting the pool or having a quick, shore lunch. You can always return after theyÕ ve moved on.

DonÕ t yell into your cell on the water. Fish, and fellow anglers may not enjoy listening to your wife as sheÕ s cursing you.

Respect the fish, fellow anglers and the regulations. Practice catch and release, and if you do keep a few, take only what youÕ ll eat, and release the rest. Freezing fish ruins the texture.

And as you pack up at the end of the day, be sure to place your fancy new fishing rod on the hood of the truck so you can watch it bounce down the highway as you drive away.

Car roofs and electric windows are responsible for destroying more rods than all other methods of abuse.

Nursing scholarship announced

CROWN POINT Ñ A nursing scholarship fund has been developed to honor the memory of Patricia Chamberlain, RN who passed Thursday, March 19. Most people in the Ticonderoga catchment area who ever sought care in the Emergency Department of Moses-Ludington Hospital knew Pat. She was the smiling, caring face of healthcare for many years in her community. During her 22 year tenure at MLH, Pat worked tirelessly to insure the highest quality of nursing service was offered at our hospital. She mentored a generation of nurses and other healthcare providers. As a member of the Southern Adirondack Emergency Medical System, Pat was an avid supporter of the local Emergency Squads as well as the Lamoille Transport service. She was instrumental in securing funding for the helicopter pad, the CT scanner, and the reconfiguration of clinic and emergency services at MLH. They could think of no better way to honor her memory than the development of a nursing scholarship to support a Crown Point School Senior who will enter the profession Pat so dearly loved.

Contributions may be sent to the Patricia Chamberlain Scholarship Fund, at the Ticonderoga Federal Credit Union, 1178 NYS Rte. 9N, Ticonderoga, New York 12883.
