Ti budget cuts two highway positions

Saturday, November 22, 2014

CAPTURED IN TIME

This Week TICONDEROGA

By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com

Pipeline from Vt. to IP debated at public forum

TICONDEROGA Ñ Despite an impassioned plea by the President of the workers union for the Ticonderoga Highway Department, two positions were cut as part of the adopted 2015 budget for the town.

The cuts, made final at the Nov. 13 meeting of the town board, dropped the highway spending plan for 2015 to $1,742,120, the same amount that was adopted in 2014. In the preliminary budget, the highway called for a $383,451 increase in spending.

The Chilson Volunteer Fire Department also saw an decrease between its preliminary figure of $59,755 and the adopted total of $52,492.

While no one spoke from Chilson, Eric Senneville, President of the local union which represents the highway department, expressed his concerns to the board during the public comment time at the beginning of the meeting.

Senneville attacked the study issued by the town to local media, calling it, “highly flawed, to say the least.Ó Ò Where does Hague, Crown Point or Moriah have 17 miles of sidewalks, Ò Senneville said. Ò In Moriah, the village plows the sidewalks. When you wanted to buy something for the department, you compared us to North Elba and Lake Placid.

DOT, Crown Point seek safety improvements for ‘bridge road’

By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com

CROWN POINT Ñ Residents here want something to be done at what they feel is a dangerous intersection connecting Vermont and New York.

Crown Point Supervisor Charles Harrington was presented with a petition from residents of his community wanting something to be done at the intersection of Route 185, the road leading to the Champlain Bridge between the two states, and Routes 9N/22. Ò We got the petition from the communtiy and I told them I would write a letter to the Department of Trans-

portation,Ó Harrington said. Ò I made the letter very concise and sent the petition with it.Ó The town heard back from Region 1 DOT Director Sam Zhou 10 days later. He stated the Region 1 Traffic Safety and Mobility office would be studying the intersection along with suggested modifications to the area. Ò I was really impressed with how quickly they responded,Ó Harrington said.

Harrington said one of the biggest concerns at the intersection is line-of-sight, as both north and southbound traffic have blind approaches to the intersection. Ò You have large trucks coming to a complete stop as they are coming off the bridge and then starting up

Ò As I travel South through this intersection, I am aware that persons who are entering 9N/22 from the bridge Road to proceed South have a very short period of time from which their visual observation signaled a safe entry and of which they must cross the northbound lane,Ó he scribed.

Ticonderoga, county, Adk. Council turn out to support IP pipeline

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA Ñ While government leaders had already thrown their support behind the idea of a natural gas pipeline crossing Lake Champlain from Vermont to International Paper - Ticonderoga Mill, they received the backing of the largest environmental watchdog in the Adirondack Park. Ò This will result in a dramatic drop in pollution for New York and for downwind areas of Vermont,Ó Adirondack Council Executive Director Willie Janeway said during a Nov. 18 public hearing on the proposed pipeline. Ò This would be welcome news not only for environmental reasons but for public health benefits. These are public benefits.”

Vermont Gas is proposing an additional transmission line from its Addison-Rutland Natural Gas Project which will run from Vermont, under Lake Champlain, and to the IP Mill. The mill would then power their boiler with natural gas instead of No. 6 fuel oil. Ò I hope (people) take note that things have changed in the Adirondacks,Ó Janeway added. Ò You have town and economic leaders talking about environmental responsibility. You have en-

vironmental engineers working with businesses to bring balance.Ó The meeting was held by the New York State Public Service Commission, who will continue to take comments from the public through the end of the year.

Previous hearing had already been held in Vermont. Some of the actions at those hearings lead to a strong police presence at the meeting, with members of the Essex County SheriffÕ s Department and Ticonderoga Police Department ensuring the peace.

There was a definite line dividing those who supported the project, with unanimous support from those speaking from the New York side of the lake and equally unanimous opposition from four Vermont residents. Ò They are trying to improve the environment by supplying fuel to IP which will cut their emissions by 50 percent,Ó Ticonderoga Supervisor Bill Grinnell said. Ò I would like to see IP continue as a successful company in this area. I really feel this is for the good in the Ti community and in the greater community. I hope the gas comes.Ó Bobbie Carnwath of Vermont said Ticonderoga should stop relying on IP as their lone economic driver. Ò Mr. GrinnellÕ s economic feelings do not match with economic policies,Ó Carnwath said.

Ò You canÕ t base economic decisions on unsupported feelings. Ti is not going to return to its former glory if it continues to limp along as a one company town.Ó Carnwath later said she had Googled Grinnell quotes that showed he desired to hear all sides on an issue. Ò LetÕ s follow that example and look at all the alternatives,Ó she said.

Garry Douglas of the Plattsburgh-North Country Chamber of Commerce and North Country Economic Development Council said IP is a foundation for further business. Ò We are not wed to be a one company town in Ticonderoga and we are not a one company town,Ó Douglas said. Ò The mosaic as a whole does not work if the central employer is undermined. Without this piece, the rest of it does not work.Ó The proposal also received support from Lake George Association Executive Director Walt Lender, who also works with IP. Ò We could not have as vibrant of a community if we did not have the strong corporate partner that IP is,Ó Lender said.

GrinnellÕ s fellow members of the Essex County Board of Supervisors also attended to show their support for the project. Ò Our board is unanimously behind the proposal to bring natural gas to IP,Ó Chairman Randy Douglas said. Ò We went through the closure of a paper mill in Jay, and we are still recovering from the effects. This is a lifeline for IP.Ó Ò Every day is a struggle to just try and retain the jobs we have here now,Ó Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava said. Ò The spin off economy this mill provides for the entire region is critical. We saw what happened when the mining moved away, we are still devastated to this day. You never recover.Ó Ò Yes natural gas is a pollutant,Ó Crown Point Supervisor Charles Harrington said. Ò But, yes, natural gas is better than coal or fuel oil.Ó Ò We have great government organizations here who will control these things,Ó Schroon Supervisor Michael Marnell said.

Marnell also addressed the increased police

presence, saying it was a sign, Ò things need to get better.Ó Many employees of IP also spoke, including union head Arnie Ross and plant manager Chris Mallon. Ò It is extremely important to the mill in order to stay competitive in the future,Ó Mallon said.

Vermont resident Melanie Peyser, who has family land which would be affected by the proposed pipeline, said she felt the audience was biased. Ò I didnÕ t hear a single independent citizen speak here tonight,Ó she said. Ò This is not a question about IP. This is a question about Vermont Gas Systems, and this company does not know how to manage a project of this size.Ó Peyser also had harsh words for those who she called, Ò doom and gloomers.Ó Ò All I hear is that things are just getting worse and worse,Ó she said. Ò There are 19 Vermonters working at IP. There are 9,000 New Yorkers working in Vermont. I am sure we can absorb 600 more jobs. Come to Vermont, we are a lot more enthusiastic about things than your leaders are.Ó After the hearing, Vermont Gas Vice President of Regulatory Affairs Eileen Simollardes said she was pleased with the responses.

“It was incredibly affirming to hear so many people talk about the importance of this project to the community and the region,Ó she said. Ò We have worked closely with IP on this project and environmental matters do not respect state lines.Ó Simollardes added while there has been vocal opposition to the project on the east shores of Lake Champlain, there has also been, Ò lots of support.Ó Additional information on the proposed project, known as case number 14-T-0406, can be found at dps.ny.gov/articlevii/htm. Comments regarding the case can be submitted by email to secretary@dps.ny.gov; by mail to Secretary Kathleen H. Burgess, NYS Public Service Commission, 3 Empire State Plaza, Albany, N.Y., 122231350 (Re: Case 14-T-0406); or by accessing the case file through the DPS website and selecting the Ò post commentsÓ link. All comments must be received by Dec. 31.

Natural Food Co-op to continue fundraising into spring

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA Ñ After a back-and-forth on the future of the Ticonderoga Natural Foods Co-op, organizers have decided there is enough interest to keep their push going into spring.

Sharon Reynolds, the head of PRIDE of Ticonderoga and member of the Co-op board, said organizers would continue to seek members for the locally grown, organic marketplace because of recent interest generated online. Ò This has been quite a roller coaster,Ó Reynolds said. Ò We had maintained that in the fall we would make a decision of go-no go, but over the last two weeks there has been an added interest with membership signups through our online option. We have had a few glitches online, but they are all being worked out and if someone does have an issue, they can email us right away to get things taken care of at tifoodcoop@gmail.com.Ó Reynolds said the original fall goal was to have 300 memberships or $750,000 in funds

raised for the store. Ò That was the number where we could feel comfortable moving forward into opening in the next year,Ó she said. Ò Right now, we are at about one-third of our goal financially.Ó Memberships for the cooperative cost $250 annually, but can be paid for through a budget-friendly option of a $50 down payment and the option to make payments throughout the year to reach the $250 full cost. Ò When the co-op opens, you

can do monthly payments on the remaining $200,Ó Reynolds said. Ò We are aware that we are asking a lot with this amount, but this is everyoneÕ s market. ItÕ s a co-op, so we will own it and we have to come together to raise funds through memberships or donations. In February or March, we will see what it is going to look like.Ó With those developments, organizers decided to continue to raise funds. Ò We are not going to make a decision this fall but continue

on through the end of the year and into next year with campaigns to recruit and sign up more members with the hope of getting closer to our goal,Ó Reynolds said.

Reynolds said she has heard from many in the community who have told her they feel it is a good idea to have an alternative grocer in the region. Ò Natural, home-grown foods continue to be the focus,Ó she said. Ò We feel an obligation to keep it going to

those who have offered their support.Ó Along with residents, Reynolds said several community organizations have approached the organizers to find out how they could be part of the cooperative.

Organizers have also been approached by those looking to help. Ò We are trying to recruit some volunteers for campaigning and advertising of the program,Ó Reynolds said.

Ò That is what we need the help with now. Down the road we will need help with boxes and putting things on the shelf once we open our doors.Ó More information on the Ticonderoga Natural Foods Coop can be found at the PRIDE Ticonderoga and Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce offices, online at squareup. com/market/ticonderoganatural-foods-co-op or at facebook.com/ticonderogacoop.

Missed Ti water project deadline leads to EPA warning

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA Ñ A recent water report issued on the Ticonderoga town website had everyone calling its offices Nov. 12.

The report, issued by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), stated Ticonderoga had failed to provide proper treatment for Cryptosporidium at its

Gooseneck Pond source, a single-celled protozoan parasite commonly found in lakes and rivers, especially when the water is contaminated with sewage and animal waste. ÒT his is part of the new regulations with the EPA that says all uncovered water sources need to be filtered,” Supervisor Bill Grinnell said. ÒWh at they are saying is we need to filter the water with ultraviolet treatment if we continue to use Gooseneck Pond as a water

supply source.Ó At the Nov. 13 meeting of the town board, Grinnell went on to further explain Cryptosporidium has not been found in the water. ÒT he warning says the water could, it does not, but could, contain this,Ó he said. ÒT here is no proof from any of the tests that have been done on our water this is in there. It is a remote possibility, but it is a possibility.Ó The report was issued because the town of Ticonderoga failed to meet the timeline for the installation of proper filtration at Gooseneck. ÒO n or before Oct. 1, the Town of Ticonderoga was required to provide water treatment for the Gooseneck Reservoir source to inactivate Cryptosporidium,Ó the report stated. ÒT he Town of Ticonderoga has been engaged in a process to provide such treatment and/or provide an alternative source of water. As of Oct. 1, that process has not been completed.Ó Grinnell said part of the water system project is to enclose the reservoir that is fed

by Gooseneck, allowing the town to have a capped source

of water which can be filtered properly. ÒT he Town of Ticonderoga is actively pursuing an evaluation of its water supply options including the Gooseneck Reservoir and Lake George supplies, and is also currently completing tests on a groundwater source,Ó the report said. ÒA decision relative to the selected options should be made in January of 2015, with completion of all selected water source improvements to be completed by Oct. 1, 2016.Ó Grinnell said the town plans to continue to use water from the Gooseneck site along with water from its Lake George source, which is currently filtered, as part of the new system.

ÒT he two backfeed each other right now,Ó Grinnell said. ÒL ake George is already filtered, so that is not an issue.

The town is moving forward with the water project, including the Streetroad well site, and we are going to use all three sources which will require us to do the ultraviolet treatment in order to comply with the EPA order.Ó According to the EPA, Cryptosporidium can cause gastrointestinal illness (diarrhea, vomiting, cramps). Symptoms may include profuse, watery diarrhea, abdominal cramps, vomiting, lethargy, and general malaise.

Infants, some elderly or immunocompromised persons

such as those undergoing chemotherapy for cancer; those who have undergone organ transplants; those who are undergoing treatment with steroids; and people with HIV/ AIDS or other immune system disorders who can be particularly at risk from infections.

You should seek advice about drinking water from your physician or health care provider.

It further states anyone at risk should use bottled or boiled water for their drinking water and food preparation.

Further information can be obtained through the town Water Department at 585-6144 or 585-6265 Ext.10. More information is also available at townofticonderoga.org.

Times of Ti Editorial

Thank you athletes!

W

ith the fall high school sports season coming to an end, weÕ d like to recognize some of the athletes who gave it their all in fall sports this year.

In football, Peru (Class B) and Saranac Lake (Class C) picked up Section VII championships as they both rose to top-10 state rankings, each picking up a win against Section X foes on their way to regional final appearances. The Ticonderoga Sentinels claimed the Section VII Class D football title with an impressive fourth quarter win over heated rival Moriah, moving on to handily defeat Tupper Lake in the regional semifinals and trading scores with Section IIÕ s Cambridge/Salem before falling to the Indians in the Class D regional final game.

BeekmantownÕ s Justin Stevens (and lets not forget the offensive line) set a Section VII all-time record of 1,963 rushing yards while Peru quarterback Blake Altizer found his way into the record books as well with a section-best 71 career touchdown passes.

Also worth mentioning, the MayorÕ s Cup match between Saranac Lake and Tupper Lake made a return after a three-year hiatus, going the way of the Red Storm.

In boysÕ soccer, Chazy and Beekmantown represented their section well, traveling to Middletown where Chazy suffered a tough Class D semifinals loss in penalty kicks to International Prep while Beekmantown topped Livonia 1-0 before falling in the Class B championship game.

The girlsÕ teams from those two schools made plenty of noise of their own. Both fell only one game shy of a trip to the state semifinals, though itÕ ll be a sad goodbye to a handful of senior stars from each roster, including Beekmantown senior Kallie Villemaire (31 goals, 25 assists) and Chazy senior Rachel Pombrio (22 goals, four assists).

The combined Bolton/Warrensburg girls soccer team made history, advancing to the NYSPHSAA Class C Final Four in Cortland. While they were unable to bring home a victory, it was a positive first step for an emerging program between the two school districts.

Speaking of combined teams, perennial powerhouse Chazy isnÕ t alone in Class D. The newlymerged Elizabethtown-Lewis/Westport team took the Eagles to penalty kicks in the Class D final, and in the previous round, only one goal separated the Griffins from Keene. The three teams combined for a 41-11-3 record.

Oh, and wait, what was that, Makenzie Winslow just scored again. The senior striker compiled 59 goals for the Minerva/Newcomb Lady Mountaineers in leading her squad to the Section VII Class D finals for the first time in either school’s collective history. Winslow, however, would not

November 22, 2014

be able to take her place on the field against Chazy, but the Lady Mountaineers proved they belonged on the field, playing an inspired game in the face of long odds and earning the respect of their opponent. In the end, Winslow finished with 122 career goals. She might want to keep her eyes on the paper in a few years, though, as sophomore Jordan Bush starts her ascent up the scoring list next season.

In volleyball, Beekmantown was unstoppable.

The Eagles won every league game 3-0, including the Section VII Class B title game. Lake Placid swept Northern Adirondack for a Class D crown of their own, and later that same day, AuSable Valley and Plattsburgh played one for the ages, a 3-2 nailbiter that went the way of the Patriots.

Two local cross country runners finished third in their class in states at SUNY Canton Nov. 8Ñ Seton CatholicÕ s Margaret Champagne and Plattsburgh’s Jeriqho Gadway. The Lady Knights finished a perfect 20-0 while the boys of Lake Placid raced to a 19-1 mark. The Saranac boysÕ and girlsÕ teams were right behind, both finishing 17-3.

EKMW may not have had the number of runners needed for team wins, but the Emus sent three runnersÑ Jon Gay, Tom Maron and Myra Adams—to states. Gay finished tenth overall in Class D competition. ItÕ s a shame the secondfastest runner in Section VII qualifiers wasn’t on the All Star roster because he ran in too few dual meets.

When it comes to swimming, two names come to mind. Or four, depending how you look at it.

Kelly Davey, Meghan Davey, Brooke Kelley and Alexis Kelley helped Plattsburgh to a perfect season ahead of Peru, AuSable Valley and Moriah.

The PatriotsÕ Emily McCormick kept the Hornets from going 11-for-11 at the Section VII championship while Cydney Bond and Kylei Pena (Peru) and Lydia Brown (AuSable Valley) each picked up two second-place finishes.

ThereÕ s a rising star in gymnastics. PeruÕ s Delaney Brown, only a seventh grader, picked up six all-around wins to help cap off a perfect 6-0 season for the Indians. With a deep roster and five more years of Brown, Peru should be poised for years of success. PlattsburghÕ s Madison Baker and Hannah Kaltenback, along with BeekmantownÕ s Kailey Quackenbush and Desiree Dashnaw, were often close behind.

To the teams and players missingÑ there are many more deserving of the recognitionÑ know that we had you in mind. Lastly, a thank you to the coaches, referees, families and fans who put their energy and support into what was an exciting season. And most of all, win or lose, to the players.

Editorial appreciated

To the Times of Ti: Thanks for the article on the need of a viable third party, The Green Party (GP) has participated in New York state politics for several years but it hasnÕ t been easy. To get on the ballot in New York, a party need thousands of signatures according to its enrollment. To stay on the ballot, a party has to get at least 50,000 votes for its gubertatorial candidate. This is no problem for the Democrats and Republicans who have huge resources but it is for an independent party like the Green Party that refuses to accept money from corporations or PACÕ s and refuses to enter into fusion with the two major parties or tneir satellites like the Working Families Party (WFP). Also the two major parties have inserted tneir duopoly into the NYS Constitution by setting up a Board of Elections that only they can administer and hire workers who must be registered in either party! The New York City Board of Elections is especially partial to this duopoly. Its ballot understandably reserves the first two columns exclusively for their candidates but comprises third party columns by co-mingling other candidates who are not connected with these third parties in their columns. For example, Cuomo and Hochul, running on the Ò Women Equality PartyÓ appeared on the Green Party column. This created much confusion and invalidated the ballot if a voter mistakenly voted for the all of the candidates in the GP column. Although the GP candidate for Governor, Hawkins, did increase hns vote total from the the previous gubernatorial election in 2010, he was polling 9 percent just before the election but received only 5 percent of the vote, a drop of 45 percent. Cuomo who appeared on four columns was polling about the same as his vote-54 percent and Astorino who appeared on three columns was polling at 33 percent and received a vote of 41 percent. Other party vote totals such as the Libertarian and the WFP decreased markedly from the previous gubernatorial election in 2010. I believe the NYC Board of Elections violated the civil rights of those who wanted to vote for a third party by setting up a confusing ballot that suppressed their votes.

Editorial a ‘slap in the face’ to hospice

To the Times of Ti: I was dismayed at a sentence in the Editorial BoardÕ s piece on Death with Dignity in which it was stated that Brittany Maynard Ò read about radiation and hospice care but found both options to be even more terrifying.Ó I understood Ms. MaynardÕ s determination to make her own decision to end her life on her terms before she was incapacitated and debilitated by her illness.

I do not recall reading anything about her being terrified by

Letters to the Editor the thought of hospice.

I have been a hospice volunteer for many years and the goal of hospice is just what Ms. Maynard wanted: itÕ s about living each day, enhancing the quality of life and preserving the dignity of the terminally ill.

I do not fault Ms. Maynard’s decision, but I find the comment in the Valley News to be a slap in the face to the hospice movement.

I suggest your Editorial Board read a recent article in the New York Times on Oct. 5, 2014, entitled Ò The Best Possible Day.Ó In the article, Dr. Atul Gawande describes how a hospice team enabled a patient to live her last days exactly as she wanted, allowing her The Best Possible Day she could imagine.

ThatÕ s what hospice is all about and there is nothing Ò terrifyingÓ about it.

Loon thanks

To the Times of Ti: Biodiversity Research InstituteÕ s Adirondack Center for Loon Conservation (www.briloon.org/adkloon) would like to thank the many sponsors, in-kind donors, and volunteers who helped make our recent Adirondack Loon Celebration a success!

Adirondack musicians extraordinaire, Roy Hurd and Jamie Savage started off the day with excellent concerts, while Adirondack Lakes and Trails Outfitters and our loon field staff led a field trip to Lake Colby to learn about loon behavior, and Merriloons the Clown transformed the our childrenÕ s faces into amusing loony creatures.

The amazing ventriloquist, Sylvia Fletcher and her sassy puppets, had the audience in hysterics throughout her shows!

Ti budget Continued from page 1 Now that you want to cut, you compare us to Crown Point and Putnam.Ó Senneville said it would take more time to remove snow from the streets after a major snow event with the cuts, along with other issues. Ò In laying two people off, I do not think the highway is being treated fair,Ó he said. Ò The

www.timesofti.com highway budget has increased just $649,000 in 14 years. I do not think it has gone up that much when you look at other towns. I donÕ t think this board is anywhere in the realm of sanity with this.Ó The cuts trimmed the highway department staff to six plow operators and one mechanic along with Highway Superintendent Michael Parent, who said after the meeting the numbers of road miles presented in the town report do

not accurately reflect the miles the plow truck operators travel during and after a storm. Ò I do not know how they compare us to the other towns they did,Ó Parent said.

Parent said the report did not take into account mileage done for the state and county, which the town receives payment for. He also said when you combine the number of passes needed to properly clear the road to state standards, each snow event adds up to 167.44 lane miles.

Parent added along with roads, the highway department is also responsible for snow removal at the airport, train station, five parks, 17 miles of sidewalk and 2.5 miles of trails.

Position brought back

The town did reinstate a position at the transfer station, which raised some eyebrows on the council. Ò We are losing two plow drivers and bring-

November 22, 2014 ing this position back,Ó councilman Dave Iuliano questioned. Ò I checked with the organization that handles landfills for the state and found out you can have someone there by themselves and they were even surprised we had two. Riding with the highway guys in the plow trucks and knowing what they do, I donÕ t understand bringing the landfill position back. Above all else, the money does not work.Ó Ò The day is going to come where you are going to have to take a long, hard look at the fiscal situation with the transfer station not just here, but throughout the county,Ó councilman Wayne Taylor said. Ò There have been a lot of taxpayers who have come to me and said they appreciate the service we provide at the transfer station,Ó Supervisor Bill Grinnell said. Ò As far as money, what department with the possible exception of the courts does not operate at a loss?Ó

Thrift shop at FUMC preps for events

Pollinator Garden has been transformed TICONDEROGA Ñ The Thrift Shop at the Ticonderoga First United Methodist Church will be participating in two Chamber of Commerce events, announced Jeannine Wright, co-manager of the shop.

On Saturday, Nov. 29, the shop will be open during its regular hours of 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. and will feature special sales for Small Business Saturday. There will be a halfprice sale on housewares and anything Christmas, excluding childrenÕ s wear and toys.

Ò Now is the time to get your holiday punch bowl, apparel and decorations,Ó said Stephanie Frazier, comanager.

On Friday, Dec. 5, during Ò Shop and DineÓ night, the thrift shop will be participating from 3 until 7 p.m.

During this special event, refreshments will be served and shoppers will find many enticing bargains as Ò newÓ items are always being put out for sale.

The Thrift Shop at the First United Methodist Church is

located in the lower level of the church fellowship wing, 1045 Wicker St. (Rt.9N) in Ticonderoga. Staffed by volunteers, the shop is open year round every Wednesday and Saturday, 9 a.m. until 2 p.m.

Call 585-2242 if more information is needed.

TICONDEROGA Ñ The Entrance Garden to the Bicentennial Park has been transforming all summer and fall into a Pollinator Garden thanks to a very generous grant from the International Paper Foundation. Members of the Carillon Garden Club, especially Joyce and Jerry Cooper, have worked tirelessly to revitalize the very visible opening to the town park used by many.

Overgrown shrubs and perennials have been removed or divided to allow new plantings to be placed in the garden to attract bees, butterflies and other pollinators to the area. With fewer natural habitats available to pollinators currently, researchers have noted a severe drop in bee and monarch butterfly populations in recent years. Bees are particularly important for pollinating crops. It is with this in mind that the garden was created as it will also serve to educate the public and hopefully encourage gardeners to plant similar plants to attract pollinators to their gardens.

The Bicentennial Park is the former site of the original International Paper manufacturing plant.

The garden is adjacent to the 1888 Building that houses the Heritage Museum.

The Pollinator Garden will be an ongoing project into 2015 and beyond. Local Brownies will be helping to place identifying signs near each plant variety next year. They will be helping with the Carillon Garden Club project and earning a civic service badge as well. Numerous spring bulbs have been planted for the opening act of the garden next year followed by lilies and summer flowering plants. It is hoped that many humans will enjoy the garden besides the expected pollinators.

The Carillon Garden Club is most grateful to the International Paper Foundation for making this project possible. Being able to provide an educational opportunity to passersby as well as a group of Girl Scouts is one of the missions of the club. For more information about the Carillon Garden Club, contact club president, Jackie Viestenz, at 546-9855 or project chairperson, Joyce Cooper at 585-2640.

Voter suppression in Essex County? Unlikely, says BOE

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN Ñ Were local voters suppressed in Essex County on Election Day as Westport resident Paul Reese alleged in a letter to the Valley News week?

Absolutely not, said Essex County Board of Elections Commissioner Allison McGahay.

Last week, Reese claimed election workers suppressed voters when they failed to inform them of the three propositions on the back of their ballots.

As a result, he concluded, Essex County had one of the highest rate of blank ballots in the state, behind only Kings, Queens and Bronx counties. Ò Our only goal is to run a proper election,Ó said McGahay.

The state board of elections designed the policy to prevent electioneering, she said.

Poll workers informing Ñ or misinforming Ñ voters on the propositions would be the same as campaigning, which is prohibited within 100 feet of polling places alongside campaign literature like bumper stickers and T-shirts.

Since ballot propositions are politicized issues, it would also be akin to poll workers directing voters to party lines on ballots.

And if allowed to draw attention to the measures, bias can be illustrated even in body language and cadence, explained McGahay.

In some areas, propositions are more heavily voted than candidate races. Sometimes, other offices have higher levels of blanks. Ò You can never tell why a voter failed to vote a particular contest,Ó said McGahay.

How did Essex County do?

Voters approved Proposal 1, a measure to create a redistricting commission to draw legislative and congressional district lines every 10 years, by 6 percentage points, with 30.5 percent left blank.

Statewide, 24.3 were left blank, and across the more than a

dozen counties in which it was defeated, margins were often in the double-digits.

Proposal 2, a measure permitting electronic distribution of state legislative bills, sailed through each county with little controversy.

Voters statewide delivered 22.9 percent blanks on that measure; the number in Essex County rose slightly to 28.76 percent.

The approved Smart Schools Bond Act of 2014 is slated to authorize $2 billion in state bonds to fund technology upgrades in schools.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo pitched the idea in his State of the State, arguing it would level the playing field for sources with varying levels of resources.

While the counties within the New York City metropolitan area Ñ Bronx, Queens, Kings and New York Ñ did deliver a high percentage of blanks, they also voted for the proposition in landslide numbers, presumably due to the high number of charter schools in those counties that would stand to benefit from the measure.

Voters statewide also approved, but in nailbiter races in many countries, including some by double-digits.

Essex County voters approved by about eight percentage points, with 27.09 left blank.

The money would be distributed using existing schoolaid formulas.

Will local schools benefit from this influx of cash?

Lawmakers returned to Albany this week for conference to discuss this and other issues, said Dan MacEntee, a spokesman for state Sen. Betty Little.

Little supported passage of Proposition 1, saying it would improve the redistricting process by making it more transparent and ensuring, regardless of the makeup of the Legislature, a balanced political representation on the commission.

Critics of redistricting argue it arranges districts along racial and economic lines, a measure misused by lawmakers for political gain.

CVES Mineville students receive unique history lesson with time capsule excavation

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com MINEVILLE — As the first flurries of winter gathered above, students at Champlain Valley Educational Services in Mineville gathered in the lobby, faces pressed against the glass.

Elementary Special Education Teacher Anthony Biasini led them outside, gave them shovels and asked them to dig.

Legend had it that a time capsule was buried several feet below the surface.

None could nail down an exact date. Maybe ten years, perhaps even 20.

But it was there, said Biasini. A custodian tipped him off. Ò It just kind of mushroomed from there,Ó he said.

The group peered at the strip of grass between the building at the cul-de-sac. Ò ItÕ s a good thing weÕ re doing this before the ground freezes,Ó said a boy.

Behind him, a crack team of excavators waited.

Yellow handles blurred, dirt started flying. Ò Get close to the wall,Ó said Biasini. Ò Right up there by the building.Ó Ò Pass the shovels!Ó they hollered. Ò I hit something!Ó yelled a student.

And there it was, a dull flash of white in the dark rich soil.

The kids fished it out, a meter-long PVC pipe.

They handed it to an aide, who produced a replacement capsule stuffed full of modern-day artifacts, like lunch menus, photos and copies of this weekÕ s Times of Ti. Back in the lunchroom, the kids gathered around Biasini, a 23-year veteran, as he attempted to open the tube. Ò Go get some grip gloves,Ó observed one. Ò How about a pair of pliers,Ó said another. Ò Leftyloosey righty-tighty.Ó Biasini twisted the top. A man later produced a wrench

and thenÉ pop!

A hush fell over the room.

He reached in and produced the first item, a bright white T-shirt emblazoned with colorful handprints and student names.

The date? 1997. Ò You can still smell the paint!Ó marveled one.

Other items followed as the students jostled for their turn to pull ziploc bags from the slender tube Ñ class rosters, photos of faculty and staff with retro attire and antiquated hairstyles. Ò ThatÕ s Mr. Rondake!Ó said a teacher.

Students appeared to be baffled over a cassette tape. Ò You can watch movies on it!Ó said a boy.

He appeared flummoxed when told it was a device used to listen to music. Ò Why?Ó he asked. Ò Because thatÕ s all we had back then!Ó said a teacher.

The capsule was originally supposed to be opened in 2022, according to notes contained within. Ò As we prepare for our imminent journeys, we will have made our future endeavors a reality,Ó said a laminated poster. Ò We will always re-

member and never forget the good times, the bad times, and the friendships that have developed throughout the years.Ó Biasini said the items would be cataloged and stored in a display case. Doing so, he said, would instill a sense of place and history with the students.

And then they disappeared, back to the classrooms.

ABOVE: Anthony Biasini and members of his class were able to unearth a time capsule planted at the school in 1997.

Bridge road Continued from page 1 Ò With this comes the realization that entering vehicles have previously come to a complete stop. The problem is the ability of drivers coming from the Bridge Road who are unable to see north far enough in order to make an absolute calculation that a car is not coming, as there is a distinct rise in the road that blocks the entering driver Õ s view. In fact, the only time I feel safe entering 9N/22 to head South is at night when the beams of oncoming cars shine above the rise. Much the same circumstances hold true for those heading north.

Of course, the situation is magnified when tractor trailers are involved.Ó Harrington added some motorists do not use exit lanes properly. Ò People wanting to turn onto the Bridge Road from either direction are not compromised if they utilize the right lane and use their directional signals in a correct manner,Ó he wrote.

In his letter, Harrington offered three potential solutions. Ò Stop signs from all directions would enhance the safety of this intersection,Ó he wrote. Ò A stop light would

(Also), reduced speed from all directions incorporated with stop signs or stop lights.Ó Harrington added changing the level of the road to help improve sight lines or lengthening entrance lanes onto 9N/22, while more expensive, could be another option.

RIGHT: The intersection of Routes 9N/22 with Route 185, or the bridge road, is being studied for possible safety improvements by the state DOT after Crown Point Supervisor Charles Harrington sent a petition from residents and letter to Region 1 Director Sam Zhou.

Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce preps for

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA Ñ For the fifth year, the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce has joined in the nation-wide Small Business Saturday Program.

Started through American Express, Small Business Saturday is held the Saturday after Thanksgiving, Nov. 29, to promote the ideals of shopping locally, according to TACC Executive Director Matthew Courtright. Ò We have been working with American Express since its inception of the program,Ó he said. Ò It has gained a lot of traction here since the second year as well as throughout the nation.Ó While Courtright said the chamber helps to support local buying and living ventures throughout the year, there is an extra boost that comes during the first shopping weekend of the holiday season. Ò I want our businesses to have a good financial day and I want the greater community to realize the businesses we have here is where they can get what they need for the holidays,Ó he said. Ò We push it all year long but this is a day that is very

important to the particular businesses here. These businesses give to our community every single day, and we want to break the habit of going out of town for things you can get here.Ó Small Business Saturday falls between Black Friday and Cyber Monday, when most holiday shopping begins. Courtright said it is a chance to eliminate the travel out of what can be a very challenging weekend for some. Ò Small Business Saturday is the day we all shop small,Ó he said. Ò ItÕ s the local community organizers, the small business owners and the customers who make Small Business Saturday the busiest shopping day of the year for small businesses. TheyÕ re the corner stores that create jobs. The retail shops and restaurants that help build our economy. And the mom and pop shops whose very presence makes a neighborhood your neighborhood.

The Shop Small Movement inspires people to shop with and support these small businesses, as well as give back to the places that have given their communities so much.Ó Courtright said the chamber recently did a survey of

the downtown businesses and found there are 65 businesses on Montcalm Ave. with six vacant buildings, which he said the chamber is working to fill.

Small Business Saturday gives shoppers the chance to take advantage of specials and promotions from area retailers, which Courtright said continues to grow with each Small Business Saturday. Ò We are hoping to make this year bigger and better,Ó he said. Ò This day is also used as occasion to recognize the importance of small businesses and their vital contributions to the economy, job creation, and local communities. The national initiative encourages consumers to shop at small businesses during the holiday season. Small Business Saturday is the perfect opportunity for community members to support Ticonderoga area businesses as well as giving small businesses an opportunity to take part in a nationwide effort.Ó For more information, visit the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce website at ticonderogany. com, email chamberinfo@ ticonderogany.com, call 5856619, like the chamber on Facebook or follow TiconderogaADK on twitter.

Ticonderoga football season ends against Cambridge/Salem

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com SCHUYLERVILLE Ñ It was not a matter of who blinked first, but more of not blinking at all.

Unfortunately for the Ticonderoga Sentinel varsity football team, punting the ball back to Cambridge/Salem on their first drive of the game would be the difference as the Indians scored a 56-35 victory over the Sentinels in the Class D regional finals Nov. 15.

The Indians never finished any of their eight possessions with anything less than seven points, while the Sentinels would score five of the next six times they had possession (one possession coming just at the end of the first half they did not score on) before a desperation turnover in the fourth. Ò They were very explosive and they did whatever they wanted to do offensively,Ó Ticonderoga head coach Scott Nephew said. Ò We went to our bone set in the second half and were more physical than them when we had the ball, but we could not stop them.Ó After falling behind 14-0 and seeing Garrison Hughes miss the next possession, Konner Bruce ran the ball seven times for 52 yards, including a 13-yard scoring rush. Brody Rocque had a key third-and-five completion on the drive.

Bruce added scoring runs of five and 64 yards as the senior tailback finished with 35 carries for 303 yards. Ò Konner has been great for us all year,Ó Nephew said. Ò He worked hard in the off season to get ready for this year.Ó Hughes returned under center to start the second half and opened the scoring with a one yard run. He would finish 1-of-4 passing for two yards and an interception while running five times for 70 yards and returning six kicks for a total of 115.

Rocque would add a fourth quarter score, driving through Indian defenders to score from 22 yards out. He finished with 32 yards rushing, while Ryan Trudeau added 24 on seven carries.

Overall, the Sentinels held a 429-422 advantage on the ground, but were unable to make up for a 159-10 difference in passing yardage or the big play ability of Cambridge/Salem. Ò It is hard to simulate the stuff they do in practice,Ó Nephew said.

The Sentinels best chance to stop the Indians came with 4:20 left in the fourth quarter on a fourth-and-13, trailing 42-35. The Indians turned the play into a 28-yard scoring strike on a play Nephew felt was reminiscent of a play from the college level between Florida State and Notre Dame. Ò Their wide receiver picked our linebacker, to be honest with you,Ó he said.

Defensively, Colby Bradford had 2.5 tackles for loss, while Chase Dixon had two tackles for loss, including a sack. Jacob Spaulding and Rocque also added one tackle for loss each, while Devin Alkinburgh had 0.5 and Domanic Banish had a tipped pass.

The Sentinels finished with season with a record of 7-4, with a 3-1 record against Class D opponents.

Cody Stockwell was named a second team outside linebacker, while Adam Jaquish received an honorable mention.

For the Sentinels, the backfield duo of fullback Ryan Trudeau and halfback Konner Bruce received first team awards. The duo also receive defensive honors, with Trudeau being named a first team outside linebacker and Bruce a second team inside backer.

Kolby Bradford was named as a second team defensive end, while Chase Dixon earned first team defensive tackle honors and Garrison Hughes was named a first team defensive back.

On special teams, Domanic Banish was named the CVAC all star kicker. Brody Rocque received an honorable mention.

Dances with Bulls

A wild waste of the worse sort

I

tÕ s been about two weeks since I penned a column about the burgeoning Adirondack moose population. The point of my article was to raise awareness about the gradual return of a truly native species to the Adirondacks.

Although the last, legally harvested moose taken in the Adirondacks was way back in 1861, there continued to be reports of moose traveling through the region as late as the 1890Õ s.

Around the turn of the century, there were numerous attempts to reintroduce moose to the private parks of the Adirondacks.

Unfortunately, none of the efforts proved successful.

A major problem with early reintroduction efforts had to do with stress and body temperature change. Although moose are large and imposing creatures, they have delicate systems and a change of just a few degrees in body temperature can prove fatal.

In the repeated effort to restock the animals, most of the captive animals suffered from heat exhaustion in the railroad box cars that were used to transport them.

According to Gary Lee, a retired DEC Forest Ranger and moose expert from Old Forge, the Browns Tract Guides Association brought several bull and cow moose to the Adirondacks in the early 1900s.

The moose were kept in pens during the winter and released the following spring. Unfortunately the penned moose had become so familiar with their human handlers, they exhibited no fear of man and wandered into the back yards of locals seeking handouts. Local residents killed most of them within just a few miles of their release. Fortunately, similar reintroduction efforts proved successful in restoring the population of beaver and black bear.

While moose sightings continued to be reported over the the ensuing decades, the ungainly looking creatures proved unable to establish a viable population in the park until the 1980Õ s, when a large number of moose began to disperse from neighboring states and Canada to Ô greener pasturesÓ in the Park.

Throughout the 1980Õ s and well into the turn of the century, there were numerous reports of moose swimming across Lake Champlain and the St. Lawrence River.

At first, bull moose were discovered looking for love in all the wrong places, mainly in local cow pastures. However, moose eventually managed to establish a small, but viable population, and cows began to deliver calves.

While the Adirondack moose population cannot be compared with Vermont, New Hampshire or Maine herds; it continues to thrive and prosper.

Currently, the greatest threat to moose restoration is a collision with a vehicle. Over a dozen animals have been lost to the highways, including those killed during the fall rut and three more in the spring. Moose are very susceptible to heat stroke, especially if they cannot find cold water to cool them down.

The Adirondack moose population has been estimated between 750 and 1000 animals. The only population of moose living outside the Park are located near Lake Desolation, south of Great Sacandaga Lake.

However, it is not unusual for moose to wander into urban areas while seeking a mate during the breeding season.

DEC estimates there are numerous moose scattered about the region. Some of the more likely hot spots include the Chataguay Highlands, and the Moose River Plains.

Hamiliton County is considered Moose Central, as it encompasses an ideal environment for moose, with numerous ponds, lakes and bogs scattered over more than million acres of wild country.

Despite the natural odds limiting their return, the one factor that seemingly canÕ t be controlled is the illegal poaching of moose; which has occurred almost every year since moose first began to move back into the state.

shut.

According to the DEC News Release detailing the most recent incident, Ò A caretaker from the Santanoni Club contacted DEC Ray Brook Dispatch to report a dead moose on the Tahawus Road in the Town of Newcomb, Essex County.

DEC Environmental Conservation Police investigated the incident and found a female moose calf that appeared to have been shot. It weighed about 250 pounds.

DEC wildlife staff transported the carcass to the DEC Wildlife Health Laboratory in Delmar for a necropsy, which revealed the moose was killed by a shotgun slug or muzzle-loading bullet fired through its chest.

Killing a moose is a misdemeanor offense with a maximum possible penalty of $2,000 in fines and one year imprisonment.

DEC Environmental Conservation Police continue to investigate the most recent incident and anyone with information about the shooting should call the DEC Ray Brook Dispatch at 518-897-1300.

Despite the fact that the vast majority of hunters remain ethical sportsmen and women; it only takes a single incident for all hunters to be painted with the same brush.

It’s the sportsman’s responsibility to report fish and game violations. Not only are they violating the law, they are pilfering a natural resource that belongs to everyone.

Those responsible for the incident didnÕ t kill just a single moose. Tthe female calf had the potential to give birth to numerous offspring overthe span of itÕ s life.

Moose Hot Spots

Have you been looking for moose in all the wrong places?

HereÕ s a list of potential locations where moose have been observed. Warning: Do not attempt to get close to a moose. Watch from a distance. They are large, powerful animals that can cover ground very quickly. They are also very protective of their young.

1. Perkins Clearing region northwest of Speculator (Rt. 30).

(Jessup and Miami Rivers area.)

2. Moose River Plains. (Cedar River Flow to the Adirondack League Club boundary.)

3. Honnedaga Lake - West Canada Creek Area (North of Route 8, Herkimer & Hamilton County) 4. Meacham Lake to Debar Mt. in Franklin County (Rt. 30, north of McColloms) and the area just south of Upper Chateaugay Lake which according to one DEC biologist Ò probably the highest moose density in the state.Ó If you do happen to see a moose, please report your sightings to the NYSDEC, who are currently in the process of conducting a survey. The use of wildlife sightings from sportsmen and citizen scientists helps DEC biologists to understand speciesÕ distribution.

Moose sightings also help them to estimate population numbers, and understand the distribution of individuals throughout the region.

You may also find reports of recent moose sightings online at https://sites.google.com/site/adirondackmooseobservations/ Joe Hackett is a guide and sportsman residing in Ray Brook. Contact him at brookside18@adelphia.net.

Young moose shot in Newcomb

I regret to report that an incident recently occured along the Tahawus Road near Newcomb when a dead moose calf was discovered by the caretaker of a local hunting club.

The incident follows a string of similar shootings including a yearling bull shot near North River Hill, a large bull with over 50 inch inside spread shot near Otter Brook in the Moose River Plains, a large bull with a 52 inch inside spread shot near Rockdam in the Moose River Plains, and a cow that was shot in Keene Valley.

Unfortunately, moose appear to have been shot just to prove Ò I shot a mooseÓ as most of animals were left to rot in the woods.

Regretably, the only outlaws ever caught and prosecuted were the individuals responsible for shooting The photo of the young moose calf provides a cow moose in evidence the recent shooting was not likely Keene Valley. due to a misidentification. It would be difficult They just couldnÕ t to argue the calf was accidently mistaken for a keep their mouths whitetail deer.

I

invented a new game last weekend I like to call dances with bulls.

Not to be confused with Kevin CostnerÕ s Dances with Wolves; or Michael JordanÕ s former basketball team the Chicago Bulls.

Nope, this match involves a long stare down with a very hostile bull moose. How it would end was up to the 1,200-pound beast charging at me through the Adirondack pucker brush.

I knew there would come a day that IÕ d come face-to-face with one of these long-faced, prehistoric looking gargantuans during a hunt.

With population estimates now pushing 1,000 animals, IÕ d seen tracks and scat left behind and even heard one crash away from me in a deer drive, like a living room sofa careening through the woodland.

I pictured such a sighting as being somewhat idyllic Ñ a massive head emerging from a beaver pond, blinking away flies and lazily munching marsh grass as birds flitted about.

I find the reintroduction of moose here to be profoundly positive news and relish the idea of my son being able to harvest one someday in this state. IÕ d seen a handful of the beasts along roadsides here, and snapped photos of one in a field in Westport, but had never spotted one during a hunt.

That all changed last weekend, but the sequence of events that unfolded turned out to be anything but idyllic.

The bull I encountered was accompanied by a mature cow, who showed herself first and sauntered at me with a long striding gait. She would have run me over, had I not made a threatening move in her direction Ñ the same type of move IÕ ve used countless times in the past to send bears and the like scurrying. It also worked with her and she went loping over a hillside.

Problem was, she wasnÕ t alone. Twenty seconds later I was eye to eye with her suitor, and he wasnÕ t liking the idea of me coming between them. He closed the 80 or so yards between us so fast that I barely had time to react. Gun on my shoulder I back peddled, putting as many large trees between the two of us as possible.

And the dance was on.

Thirty yards turned into 20, and 20 into 10. I quickly came to the realization that this beast was used to being king of the jungle Ñ and it was anything but afraid. Its ears laid back, it grunted, licked its lips and gnashed its teeth. Foam rolled from its snout as it lowered its head and stomped at the ground. Ò DonÕ t make meÓ I said under my breath as it peered around the final tree between us. The animal was so close, I couldnÕ t even get it in the scope Ñ instead, I held my 30-06 on my shoulder and peered down the barrel.

I didnÕ t dare move.

The moose swung its antlers from side to side, as if to goad me into action and stood yards away for what seemed like an eternity. I thought about a warning shot, but didnÕ t dare unaquire the animal for fear it would charge with the barrel of my gun trained on a tree.

One more threatening lurch in my direction, I thought, and IÕ ll be forced to react.

Instead, thankfully, the animal turned and slowly disappeared in the direction of its female companion, stopping occasionally to glance back in my direction.

I let out a long sigh of relief, clicked the safety on, and continued my hunt.

Later, plopped haplessly out of harmÕ s way in front of a computer monitor, research showed me that moose attacks are not as rare as one might think. In fact, 5-10 people in Alaska are wounded annually in moose attacks Ñ thatÕ s more than grizzly and black bear attacks combined.

Nevertheless, moose do not tend toward natural aggression, and most will move on without harm. The important thing to remember is that, first and foremost, moose are wild animals and will defend themselves if provoked or threatened by a human or a barking dog.

The most dangerous time for moose aggression, according to the Alaska Department of Fish & Game, occurs in September and October, during mating season and in the early spring when protective cows are guarding young calves.

How Moose Size Up In The Animal Kingdom

Will Coats, age 16, of Keeseville shows off the nice 8-pointer he dropped while hunting with his father Ed Coats in the Alleghany County town of Whitesville. Will shot the buck opening morning of the southern zone season, Nov. 15, at 10:30 a.m. It had a 19-inch inside spread. Congratulations Will!

Photo by Ed Coats

• The largest mammal in the deer family, moose are taller than a horse -- 5 to 6.5 feet tall (1.5 to 2.0 meters) from ground to shoulder.

• Heavier than a bear -- male moose, called bulls, weigh up to 1,500 pounds (680 kilograms), females are usually a few hundred pounds less.

• Faster than a kangaroo -- moose run up to 35 miles per hour (56 kilometers per hour).

• A bull moose can have antlers six feet (1.8 meters) from end to end
