Serving Wakulla County For More Than A Cei

Daylight ,

Saving Time -,

Will Return
Daylight Saving Time re-
turns to Wakulla County and
most of the rest of the United
States this week as residents
prepare to lose some sleep.
If Monday rolls around a
little quicker than normal, it's
because an hour of sleep will
be lost between Saturday night
and Sunday morning. Wakulla
County will "spring forward"
during the early morning hours
as the time will change on Sun-
day, April 2 at 2 a.m.
Residents are reminded to
set their docks ahead one hour
Saturday night. The change will
lengthen the time it stays light
at the end of the day while the
morning will remain dark a
little longer.
The idea of daylight saving
was conceived by Benjamin
Franklin during his time of ser-
vice as an American delegate
in Paris in 1784. He wrote about
it in an essay, "An Economical
Project."
Standard Time returns on
Sunday, Oct. 29 when Wakulla
County "falls back" an hour.

Children To

Hunt For

Easter Eggs
After taking a year off in
2005, the Wakulla County Eas-
ter Egg Hunt is making its re-
turn in 2006. The event is be-
ing sponsored by fhe Wakulla
County Parks and Recreation
Department.
The hunt will be held Satur-
day, April 8 at 10 a.m. Registra-
tion will be held at Hudson
Park in Crawfordville. The ac-
tual hunt will take place at 11
a.m. at Azalea Park in Craw-
fordville. The hunt is open to
children from babies to age 10.
The event will be conducted in
age groups as children search
for the plastic eggs. Sections of
Azalea Park will be roped off
to allow the children to hunt
in their age groups.
The plastic Easter eggs will
have toys and candy inside and
each age group will have a
drawing for an Easter basket.

Barwick To Stay On With Board

Wakulla County Commis-
sioners will have County Ad-
ministrator Parrish Barwick
around for another three years
after Barwick signed his new
contract last weekend.
Barwick said he accepted
the terms of the contract except
for the salary which he hopes
will be worked out with Com-
mission Chairman Maxie Law-
hon. The contract did not con-
tain a salary increase and
Barwick said he hopes to ad-
dress the issue now that he has
decided to stay on.
The last few months lead-
ing up to the end of the con-
tract have been difficult as the
work load for his office has
increased. "I want to discuss

the future direction 'of this of-
fice with the chairman," he
said. "We have a huge amount
of change in the county and the
growth has created specific
needs."
Barwick's finance director,
Cheryl Blose, will be retiring on
April 7 and the person who
replaces her needs to have the
same financial expertise while
also having experience in the
human resources field, he said.
The county was recently chas-
tised for its hiring practices in
hiring the veteran service of-
ficer.
"She is a very accomplished
financial person," said Barwick
of Blose. "She is good in all
areas but particularly good

with finances."
Wakulla County native Bar-
wick has served as county ad-
ministrator for nine years and
will reach 12 if he completes
the entire three year contract.
The county is paying him
$66,000 annually.
"Personally, I wouldn't leave
Wakulla County at a time when
we're losing Cheryl," he said.
"Even if we separate ways, I
wouldn't leave the county at a
time when it would lose the

The negotiation period con-
cluded with no agreement in
place between the City of Tal-
lahassee and the Wakulla
County Commission over the
Florida Department of Environ-
mental Protectidn's (DEP) per-
mit renewal at the Tallahassee
sewage treatment sprayfield.
Commissioners voted 4-0
Friday, March 24 to reaffirm an
earlier vote to authorize Wa-
kulla County Attorney Ron
Mowrey to file a petition re-
questing an administrative
hearing over the wastewater
treatment permit.
The county commission will
not be alone in their challenge
of the permit as the Florida
Wildlife Federation has hired
noted land use attorney David
Theriaque to be part of the le-
gal process and Wakulla Coun-
ty resident Joe Glisson said he
.has also filed an appeal to be
part of the process-aswell.
On Tuesday, March 28, Flor-
ida Attorney General Charlie
SCrist filed a petition to inter-
vene in the DEP permit process
and join Wakulla County Com-
missioners, the Florida Wildlife
Federation and Glisson.
"Wakulla Springs as one of
our most pristine and valued
bodies of water must be pro-
tected for future generations,"
said Crist. "This is a case where
extra steps must be taken to
protect this state treasure."
Crist said Tallahassee Mayor
John Marks was warned of pos-
sible action in a March 14 let-
ter. "The possibility of action
was mentioned as an option
should there be a failure to
reach an agreement between
the parties," he said.
With more than 30 people
attending the March 24 special
meeting and Commissioner
Howard Kessler out of town,
the board voted 4-0 to autho-
rize Mowrey to file the petition
appeal prior to the 4 p.m. dead-
line.
At issue is the question of
whether nitrogen from the
sprayfield is contributing to
pollution at Wakulla Springs
which, in turn, is creating more
nuisance aquatic plants at the

state park affecting the darity
of the water as well as wild-
life.
Wakulla County was grant-
ed an "enlargement of time" by
the DEP to negotiate with the
City of Tallahassee shortly af-
ter the Feb. 21 board meeting.
"Following good faith ef-
forts to negotiate with the City
of Tallahassee, the county com-
missioners of Wakulla County
confirmed its vote to challenge
a DEP permit which would al-
low the City of Tallahassee to
increase its daily discharge
from two treatment plants to
more than 32 million gallons
of secondarily treated sewage
just 10 miles upstream from
this world class natural won-
der and tourist attraction,"
Commissioner Maxie Lawhon
read from a prepared state-
ment. "The legal action fol-

VFDs Will Seek $1.6

Million In Grants

Six of the nine Wakulla
County volunteer fire depart-
ments are seeking more than
$1.6 million worth of federal
grants to pay for training and
equipment, according to David
Harrison of the Wakulla County
United Firefighters Association.
Wakulla County Commis-
sioners authorized the fire as-
sociation to seek the grant
funding Monday, March 20. If
the fire departments receive
the $1,611,300 worth of grants,
the county will be required to
provide $80,565 worth of the
funding. The money in the
grants program is provided
through the federal Depart-
ment of Homeland Security.

Harrison said the county
match money represents five
percent of the award. "There is
no guarantee we will get the
grants," said Harrison. "Last
year we didn't get any." What-
ever match money is required
from the county won't be dis-
bursed until the 2006-2007 bud-
get year begins in October.
The fire departments are
expecting to hear from the fed-
eral government whether or
not they have been successful
in acquiring the money some-
time during the summer.
The fire departments that
have applied for grant funding

Comment and Opinion

Established In Wakulla County In 1895

Our Groundwater Must Be Protected

Editor, The News:
Geologists estimate that
there are nearly 600 springs in
Florida, representing what may
be the largest concentration of
freshwater springs on Earth.
Springs are the windows into
a vast underground water re-
source, the Florida aquifer sys-
tem, which supplies most of
the state's drinking water.
Springs provide the base
flow for many of the streams
and rivers that are used for
boating, fishing, swimming,
scuba diving, and snorkeling.
The nearly constant tempera-
ture of spring vater (69. to 73
degrees Fahrenheit) creates
and ideal habitat for many
plants and animals, including
humans.
Florida's springs are increas-
ingly imperiled for a number
of reasons such as wastewater
effluent, septic tanks, storm
water run off, depletion of
groundwater levels from over
pumping, and certain agricul-
tural practices.
Nitrate levels in many of
Florida's springs, except in
larger, more natural landscapes
such as Ocala National Forest,
have significantly increased in
recent decades. We can no
longer take for granted that our
springs are the pristine, clear
waters that we remember; they
are threatened.
A good example of what is
happening to many of Florida's
springs lies in the back yard
of Florida's capital. Wakulla
Springs is a state treasure the
crown jewel of the state park
system and a worldwide tour-
ist destination.
Yet, it is increasingly being

Letters
degraded, primarily by Talla-
hassee's wastewater operation
that sprays its effluent south
of town where it seeps through
the limestone and resurfaces
as nitrate-fertilized water at
Wakulla Springs. There are
other sources of degradation
but the sprayfield effluent is,
according to the best available
science, the chief source of the
nitrate increases.
Where children used to
splash and swim, and glass
bottom boats showed tourists
the clear, deep spring waters,
one now see shore-to-shore
hydrilla and long, slimy strands
of algae. If this were not bad
enough, this fertilized water
has significantly changed the
ecology of the Wakulla River
that flows to the gulf.
There is also a potential re-
lationship between increased
nitrates in the springs, ground-
water and river and changes in
the near shore gulf waters, and

this possibility should be sci-
entifically evaluated. Fisher-
men in Apalachee Bay are an-
ecdotally reporting increasing
amounts of filamentous algae
on the bottom and on their
hooks.
The Florida Wildlife Federa-
tion (FWF) is committed to tak-
ing necessary actions to restore
the health of Wakulla Springs,
and to bring awareness state-
wide of the imperiled condi-
tion of many of our springs.
We are challenging a permit
issued recently by DEP to the
City of Tallahassee that would,
in our opinion, allow five more
years of wastewater effluent
with excessive nitrates to de-
grade the area's groundwater
and at least two Outstanding
Florida Waters, Wakulla Springs
and the Wakulla River, and
possibly two more, the St.
Marks River and Apalachee
Bay.
We have tried unsuccess-
fully to negotiate with the City
of Tallahassee and DEP and

avoid litigation, but it appears
that the court system is the last
resort available to seek rem-
edies that will restore Wakulla
Springs. We also will continue
to encourage public participa-
tion to lead our officials to
advocate and implement mean-
ingful, pro-springs protection
policies.
We invite the public to join
us in this effort. Please visit our
web site at www.fwfonline. org
- click on Wakulla Springs and
learn more. Join FWF and help
us protect Florida's most valu-
able resource our drinking
water, our recreational waters,
and our places of refuge. We
need your help in doing so.
As Florida grows, we in-
creasingly need an engaged
public to make it clear to our
elected and appointed officials
that they must practice and
promote actions that protect
Florida's groundwaters from
degradation.

President FWF

Summerwind Can Solve

Bike Trail Issue Yield

Editor, The News:
It is interesting that concern
was expressed for biker safety
in an article in the Wakulla
News March 23, on page 19. It
stated that the Summerwind
subdivision is concerned about
the danger to bikers at their
intersection with the St. Marks
Bike Trail and wants stop signs
placed on the trail.
In the first place, the Talla-
hassee/St. Marks Recreational
Trail is not only used by bik-
ers. As intended, it is used in
multiple ways: families with
tykes in strollers or on tricycles;
in-line skaters; biker/campers
or backpackers cariyinig"their
gear while traveling through
the state: joggers; friends and
families enjoying outings on
foot or bicycle; power walkers;
specialized jogger/strollers;.
friends out for a stroll; dog
walkers; horseback riders; folks
recovering from a health issue
out to regain fitness; people
walking to work; birdwatchers;
commuting bikers; school kids
walking home from the bus
drop off; scooters; skate board-
ers; as well as recreational bik-
ers. Did I forget anyone?
The DEP Greenways Trail
Office estimates a number of
annual trail users that would
represent two to three times
greater number of trail users
than the number of vehicles at
that intersection.
In the second place, the situ-
ation with the trail at the
Summerwind intersection has
really only become dangerous
relatively recently. I know first-
hand that the situation has
become more dangerous at
that point on the trail within
the last several months.

Prior to that, residents pass-
ing through that intersection
generally did not appear to be
in conflict with trail users and
I've been a trail user for a num-
ber of years. You've got to won-
der what makes this year dif-
ferent. Why are some drivers
disregarding the yield signs
and' endangering the lives of
trail users?
And in third place, that in-
tersection clearly displays a
standard DOT road sign direct-
ing traffic from the east and
the west on Summerwind to
yield at that intersection. A
proper yield requires from one
to; 10 seconds maximum to al-
low a trail user to vacate the
intersection.
The concerned residents of
Summerwind have it within
their own power to solve the
problem of safety at the inter-
section .by simply following
the rule of the road sign yield
as the DOT vehicular yield sign
says to do. Seems simple
enough if the real issue is con-
cern for safety, as stated. If it's
an attitude toward yielding,
then that's another matter en-
tirely, isn't it?
Also interesting, since I
have noticed that a few driv-
ers were not following the
rules of the road instructing
the vehicle to yield to trail us-
ers, and the danger that those
vehicles were creating, I had
just requested stop signs at
that intersection, too. But my
request is for the Summerwind
yield signs to be replaced with
stop signs in the interest of
safety for trail users.

Property Was Once

Used To Grow Peanuts

Editor, The News:
In last week's Wakulla News
David Damon was quoted: "Do
you think for one minute
Winn-Dixie would not have
built in Wakulla County if they
had been required to leave live
oaks and other large trees and
bushes as part of this develop-
ment plan?"
He goes on to say, "If you
look at the Winn-Dixie across
from the Leon County Fair-
grounds you will see a totally
different kind of development.
The same company, one clear
cut, one covered with huge live
oaks that they were made to
build around."
Now all of the 150 original
acres have been sold except for
a few parcels in Commodore
Commons owned by my brother
and sister.
In the late 1950s Commo-
dore and Beaty Taff bought 150
acres of farm land from Mr. Joe
Trice. The land was in two
Hartsfield Survey lots, with the
county road from Crawford-
ville to Tallahassee (now Trice
Lane) dividing them,
The field west of Trice Lane

had peanuts growing on it
when the Taffs bought it. Mr.
B.C. High and sons had a lease
to grow peanuts that year and
when they harvested the pea-
nuts we planted both fields in
slash pine. The following year
the highway was built (369/
319).
In the late '70s, Taff Proper-
ties cleared out the pines and
let the land lay out two or
three years. In the early '80s we
began to sell the land begin-
ning with Wakulla IGA on the
east side and Jimmy and Jean
Dykes and Hoggly Woggly on
the west side. There were no
trees on any side of these prop-
erties.-
Even today from the Ace
Hardware (old IGA) to Mac-
Donald's on the east side, and
Dykes' property (old Lindy's
Chicken) to Petro on the west
side are no native trees. The
only trees are palms and oth-
ers that have been planted
since the new owners have
been there.

Editor, The News:
SI have'been reading with-
interest the articles and letters
about Commissioner Brimner.'
I was interested in his version
of equality in hiring and eth-
ics where he hasn't seemed to
acquit himself too well. Now,
it seems, I should also be in-
terested in his approach to
-public money being spent ad-
vertising get this one pri-
vate business!
In the recent article in The
News, it was brought out that
he had sent a letter promoting
one Wakulla County business
(a motel), using public statio-
nery, public equipment, public
employees, and public stamps.
That's right. One. Single. Soli-
tary. Business.
In this article Commissioner
Brimner implied that the rea-
son the motel was included in
the letter was because the
motel was offering a "special"
on rates. Quoted in The News,
he said that the Wakulla
Springs Lodge was "unwilling
to offer any special," implying
of course, that the motel he
was promoting was offering
one.
Well, it's not.
Being interested in good
deals generally and in Mr.
Brimner's conduct in particu-
lar, I sent my wonderful hubby

Correction
In the Feb. 2 issue of The
Wakulla News it was reported
that the fee to dump construc-
tion and demolition debris at
the county landfill increased

to the motel to see what rates
Swe c-ould-get. Seems -he.stan-
dard rate they quoted him -
and the rate they quote every-
body is Mr. Brimner's "spe-
cial" rate.
Are we now to think what
he said, to excuse his conduct
was, in fact, not true?
What is this man thinking?
That he wouldn't be found out?
That no one would check? That
he was going to slide? That his
awful conduct would be forgot-
ten in this matter? Somehow
things would blow over?
Surely there was no earthly
reason that I can think of for
him to use public funds for a
private business. If I had a pri-
vate business in Wakulla Coun-
ty I would sure be very upset
at Mr. Brimner for favoring one
business over another, or one
type of business over another.
As a matter of fact, I am very
surprised that taxpaying pri-
vate enterprises have not com-
plained, period.
Heaven help us. Is this the
man the commission chose
over Commissioner Kessler in'
the City of Tallahassee spray-
field negotiations? Shame on
them all.

The old fee was actually $35 per
ton. The landfill still offers

charge. We regret the error.

THE WAKULLA NEWS, Thursday, March 30, 2006-Page 7

Taif
Wavrers

By HEIDE CLIFTON
President CHAT of Wakulla, Inc.
www.chatofwakulla.org
Recently we received a cute
little female Yorkie/Schnauzer
mix at the shelter. The little
dog, had a really bad back leg
and it looked like she might
have had an operation at one
time. She was definitely un-
comfortable and yelped when
you touched her the wrong
.way.
The people who brought
her in gave her up because
they were moving and could
not take her. We always won-
der how anybody can do that
to their dog. However, this
time it made me think. It prob-
ably would cost a great deal of
money to get her fixed up
again and some people just do
not have the funds to do that.
Our shelter director asked
me to send something out to
the membership with the
dog's picture to see whether
somebody would take pity on
this cute little female. Eutha-
nasia never entered our mind
and we just knew that some-
body would rescue her.
Well, somebody did. She is
a CHAT member and I do not
want to identify her because I
did not ask her for permission
to do so. She came for the dog
and took it to her vet in Talla-

hassee. The diagnosis was
grim. The dog had a shattered
upper leg and it looks like the
only thing that can be done is
to amputate the leg.
The lady who took the dog
wanted to sleep on the matter
overnight whether or not to
take on such a big responsibil-
ity and expense. The next day
she told us about her decision
to give the dog another lease
on life. CHAT board members
voted to pay for half of the
operation but the lady did not
want to hear of it. She said that
it was something she had to
do and that was that.
I do not know of many
people, including myself, who
would take on such a project.
It is one thing to have some
expensive procedure done on
a dog you owned and loved for
a long time, but a totally
strange animal? All of the
CHAT folks and the employees
of the shelter need a good
story like this from time to
time and our deepest thanks
go out to the woman who did
this wonderful deed for this
Yorkie mix.
Please, have your animals
spayed/neutered. Six million
dogs and cats have to be
euthanized every year in the
United States. We should do
much better with the creatures
we are responsible for.

Adult Abuse, Neglect

Is A Serious Concern

By MARJ LAW
For Rotary of Wakulla County
The Rotary Club of Wakulla
County attracts some great
speakers, and Chris Shoe-
maker,, director of Adult Ser-
vices under the Department of
Children and Families, was no
exception. Speaking to both
Rotarians and senior citizens
at the senior citizens center on.
Thursday, Chris brought up a
sensitive and painful subject:
that of adult abuse and ne-i
Select. '
Mr. Shoemaker. who has
Worked for the department for
34 years, startled his audience
by informing us that, from
Pensacola to Key West, Florida
had.41,000 cases of suspected
abuse of both children and
adults last year. Seventy per-
cent of these victims are eld-
erly, Elderly refers to those
people who are above 60 years,
old' and are either living on
their own, with relatives or
friends, or are institutionalized
in nursing homes or other care
situations.
Florida has mandatory re-
porting law. If you know of a
situation like this, or if you
suspect it, you are required to
report it to the abuse hotline
by phone or fax. The number
is 1-800-962-2873.
Criteria for abuse is that the
victim is disabled or elderly,
and that what is reported is

abuse, neglect or exploitation.
The information is entered
into a database.
The.investigator nearest to
tle victim must respond with-
in 24 hours. There are 245 in-
.vestigators in the Pensacola to
Key West area. If there is a life-
threatening situation, the in-
vestigator responds and meets
face to face with the victim
within two hours.
The investigative process
begins by securing and pro-
tecting the victim. If the adult
has a mental impairment and
"lacks capacity," the investiga-
tor can issue a "protective or-
der" to take the victim to a safe
place for up to 60 days.
However, it is rare that the
victim has to be removed from
his current residence. In-home
service professionals are avail-
able to intervene and amelio-
rate the conditions which lead
to the abuse. Ninety-nine and
7/10 percent of the cases are.
completed in just 60 days.
Although every investigator
gets 12 to 20 new reports each
month, Florida has a less than
one percent recidivism rate.
Our next discussion, thanks
to program manager and Presi-
dent-Elect Donna Bass, will be
Jack Shreve from the Attorney
General's Office. He is a Senior
Special Counsel for Consumer
Affairs.

Aileen Posey won first place
and $75 in the Crawfordville

News
By DELYNN BASTIAN
We know our own bodies
better than anyone, it is simi-
lar to having a car problem. We
have driven the vehicle for a
long time and when we start
to hear strange noises or the
ride doesn't seem to feel quite
right, we take it to a mechanic
to find out what's wrong.
The mechanic may feel at
first that there is no problem
(especially if it's one of us
women) when we try to de-
scribe the ping, ping, the bird
chirping noise, the bumpety,
bump as we go down the road.
Many people are more sat-
isfied with their health care if
they share the responsibility
with their health professional.
Your health professional is an
expert on medical care, but you
are the expert on yourself.
Often there is more than
one option for diagnosing or
treating a condition. By part-
nering with your health profes-
sional, you can help choose the
option that best fits your val-
ues, beliefs, and lifestyle. You
also will feel more confident
about carrying out the chosen
treatment.
Here are some tips for be-
ing a good partner with your
health professional:
Build a relationship with
your health professional. Let
your health professional know
that you want to be a partner
in your health care. Tell the
health professional what your
expectations are.
Be an active participant in
each appointment. Listen care-
fully to what your health pro-
fessional says. If you do not
understand a diagnosis or
treatment, ask questions. Tell
the health professional if you
do not think that youcan carry
out the prescribed treatment.
Share in every medical
decision.

Tartan Day

To Be Held
The fourth, annual Fiddles
and Thistles tartan Day Cel-
ebration will be held Sunday,

Village.

chestra, Regional Scottish

ghrabi and Scottish dancers

veloper from Lanarkshire, Scot-
land. It was marketed as a Scot-
tish settlement in the United
States.
The Lanark Scottish Fiddle
Orchestra is composed of mu-
sicians from Apalachicola,
Carrabelle, Tallahassee and
Lanark Village. Voluntary dona-
tions will be accepted at the

ABATE Will Attend Rally April 10

As anyone who drives in
Wakulla County is aware, we
have more than our share of
motorcycles on the roads.
Which also means we have our
share of motorcycle accidents.
That is one of the concerns of
ABATE of Florida.
ABATE, which stands for
"American Bikers Aimed To-
wards Education" or "A Broth-
erhood Against Totalitarian
Enactments," is a nationwide
non-profit Motorcycle Rights
Organization (MRO) that is
open to all persons who are
concerned with motorcycle
rights and motorcycle safety.
Many drivers are not aware
that one of the primary causes
of motorcycle accidents is au-
tomobiles turning in front of
motorcycles they don't see.
Although many know ABATE
as the organization that got the
helmet law repealed in Florida,
they are not aware of the ac-
tivities ABATE engages in to
educate the public and other
motorcyclists about motorcycle
accidents and accident preven-
tion.
For. example, ABATE was
instrumental in getting a stiffer
penalties bill through the leg-
islature last year to address
drivers who run red lights and
stop signs, maiming or fatally

injuring motorcyclists.
On April 10, ABATE of Flor-
ida will have its 11th annual
Freedom Rights Rally where
riders from all over the state
will make a "police escorted"
20 miles run down Apalachee
Parkway to the Capitol to meet

with legislators to discuss
these and other issues. The Big
Bend Chapter which meets in
St. Marks once a month, was
born at last year's Freedom
Rally. For more information
about this organization, con-
tact "rc" at 925-9912.

Kathy Galloway won second
place and $50 for "Sunset Fish-
ing at St. Marks Lighthouse"
and third place and $25 went
to Neil Hostnick for "Fog Set-
ting on River."
The Crawfordville Woman's
Club will use all of the photos
in future projects and publica-
tions as well as displaying the
photos with their "character
and natural beauty" around the
county at future events.

Susan
Council
-S.

Sellers should always check light
bulbs and faucets. Dripping water
rattles the nerves, discolors sinks,
and suggests faulty plumbing.
Burned out bulbs leave prospects
in the dark.
If cabinets or closet doors stick
in your home, you can be sure
they will also stick in a prospect's
mind. A little effort on your part
can create a smooth closing for
your cabinets and your home.
Watch out for household safety
as well. Homeowners learn to
live with all kinds of self-set
booby traps such as toyh on the
stairs, slippery rugs and low-
hanging overhead lights. Make
your residence as non-perilous as
possible.
Don't forget about your pets.
They're great companions, but
not when you're showing your
home. Some folks even consider
pets to be unsanitary in a home.
So do everybody a favor and
keep them outside or even send
them on vacation when there's a
showing., .
Don't let little problems detract
from what's right with your
home and call me for any of your
real estate needs

Quotation in the "other
newspaper," dated March 25,
in reference to Wakulla County:
"We have given, and given and
given, but apparently that's not
enough." Given what? Where
and how have we benefitted
from the "contributions given
Sto us by the City of Tallahas-
see?
To Director of Parks and

Splumage, please
Donald and Ann Pelt have
returned from their cruise to
Cancun, Mexico. Hope you had
a lot of fun. It's been too cold
here. Glad you're back home.
Brian Lloyd Radabaugh
made his appearance into
God's world on March 24. He
joins sisters Harley Radabaugh
and Emerald Estes and brother
Rex Radabaugh, Jr. Mother, Fa-
ther Rex, and son Jr, are doing
great. Congratulations.
Ever think about moving
out of state? Maybe we should,
to make way for the 10,000 to
20,000 who are moving into
SFlorida each day. That's the
number of land and car titles
being changed. So states one

summertime is trying to sneak

in spite of no rain, we still have

things like fruit trees and veg-

SHe believed that the roots

'start giving them water then
they will just sit there and wait
on you to bring them more. He

National Public Health Week April 3-9, 2006

Learn about how the built environment impacts public health, how to avoid
sprawl, and how to build livable, walkable communities.

Our country is facing a major health issue. Obesity increases the likelihood of
heart disease, diabetes, cancer, asthma, and premature death in adults and

children. More than 60% of the American population is not getting the
recommended 30 minutes of daily physical activity and 25% of Americans are
not active at all, Sprawl and the built environment are contributing to these

negative health effects,

The good news is that while we created these built environments, we are

equally capable of creating healthier ones, find out how.

that's because it is something
people in our community
want. It's a quality of life issue,
like animal and traffic control.
When Sheriff David Harvey
ran for re-election, he listened
to his constituents. Ochlock-
onee Bay resident Kate Brim-
berry made herself known to
him right away. She wanted
him to do something about the
litter on our roads, in our parks,
and along our shoreline. Kate
just was not satisfied with the
status quo.
Sheriff Harvey knew he was
going to have to act. He called
J.D. Turner and hired him.
"He understood the issue,"
said Sheriff Harvey. "He knew
how important it was."
In 1991, J. D. Turner drove
the first Litter Control Unit.
He'd be awake early, and he'd
take the prisoners out at the
crack of dawn. He personified

Deputy Odom, Sgt. Alley, Sheriff David Harvey

the term "work ethic," and he
made sure that those who rode
with him were fully aware he
expected a hard day's work out
of them.
J.D, expected hard work, but
the inmates liked him anyway.
He knew how to handle them.
He'd give them treats, too. A
special one would be cola and
peanuts.

"When we acquired the

enough money to add the sec-

Sgt. Alley and Deputy Odom
run the two Litter Control

"I know it's a big help to the

"and it's an every day job."
Dep. Odom added, "As long

litter. Some roads are hard to
keep clean. You could pick up
Lower Bridge Road three times
a week, and it still wouldn't
stay looking good."
Easy or hard, Sheriff Harvey

Biologists Manuel Espejo, Ralph Ventura And Sonia Pi With Hatchlings

Breeding Shrimp In Panacea

By WILLIAM SNOWDEN
Of The Wakulla News
"We have buyers waiting,"
says Manuel Espejo, the owner
of American Shrimp, the new
shrimp hatchery in Panacea.
The facility plans to begin
shipping shrimp larvae within
the week, sending tens of thou-
sands of baby shrimp to be
grown in ponds in South
Florida as well as Mexico and
Belize. The larvae will likely
end up as food or bait.
The customers are there,
Espejo says,,and with the
weather warming up, he is
hopeful the hatchery can get up
to its expected production of 2
million to 4 million baby
shrimp being shipped out
weekly.
The Cuban-born Espejo, a
marine biologist who worked
on shrimp breeding techniques
at the University of Havana,
immigrated to-Miami to be
with family. He got support
from the aquaculture division
of the Florida Department of
Agriculture for a shrimp hatch-
ery, and. got financial backing
froni a lawyer in Miami. :- !
Looking for a facility on the
Gulf of Mexico, he and his part-
ners came to Panacea and
.bought the old Town 'n' Coun-
try hardware store at the edge
of town, which had stood aban-
doned for at least 25 years.
Espejo stuggles to make
himself understood in English.
He and the other biologists on
the project, also Cuban, apolo-
gize for not being able to com-
municate.
"In Havana, everyone speaks
Spanish. In Miami, you don't
need English. But here -," he
gestures and smiles.
He had originally planned
on six months to a year to get
the hatchery up and running,
but the condition of the old
building drew the process out
to more than a year and a half.
Among the problems was the
old electrical wiring in the
building, which was outdated
and had been gnawed on by
mice.
Other aspects of the project
took time as well. The facility
has an extensive plumbing and
filtration system. The large
tanks for the larvae were
molded of fiberglass.
Another problem was that
the water in Dickerson Bay had
too much freshwater in it. The
water off Alligator Point,
though, had the right salinity
and so they got a tanker truck
to haul water to the facility.
Every week, the facility uses
another 6,000 gallons of bay
water.
The plant relies on eggs pro-
duced by the brood shrimp, the
large females and males culled
from the best of what was
taken in the nets in Apalach-
icola. There area half-dozen
tanks with some 80 of the
brood shrimp.
Every night, at 6 p.m., the
lights are cut off in the brood
room. At 9 :p.m., the females
with eggs are taken from the
tank to the incubation room, a
warm room with small barrel-
like tanks where the water is
kept at a constant temperature
and specially filtered. Here the
females lay eggs in their indi-
vidual tanks, and are taken
back to the brood room.
After several hours, a bright
light is shone on the tank to
draw the photosensitive, micro-
scopic hatchling larvae to the

March 8, 1976 marked a turn-
ing point in the lives of Edwin
and Sharol Brown. It was the
day, 30 years ago, that they
went into business for them-
selves.
Edwin Brown & Associates
started in a small building
across the highway from the
courthouse in the small block
building with metal awnings
that is currently home to a
church.
"We wanted to be back in
Wakulla County," Sharol says.
In 1976, the economy was
"pretty rough," she recalls.
Edwin says he had one sur-
veying job lined up on the Mill
Creek subdivision when they
opened up shop in that one-
room building.
That building had formerly
served as the Crawfordville
Post Office and then as a
laundromat,'among its other
incarnations before the Browns
took it. Sharol remembers
working on the walls where
blocks had been removed for
dryer vents.
Up to then, Edwin had been

working as a field supervisor
for Broward Davis. "From the
day we opened to today,"
Edwin says, "we've never had
to shut down and go home
because of a lack of something
to do."
The couple, both of whom
grew up on small farms, still
grow their own vegetables in a
garden and raise and process
their own meat.
In 1990, the Browns built a
brick office across the street
from Azalea Park.
Their son, Wade, is a li-
censed surveyor and runs the
business now. Their daughter,
Traci Cash, is a certified public
accountant and has her own
business next door.
"We feel like we've really
been blessed," Sharol says.
"The county's been good to
us over the years," Edwin says,
noting that when he started
the business it consisted of him
and three others.
Nowadays, the firm has 27
employees and could use
more, Edwin says, to deal with
the work.

The growth they have seen
since they opened has been as-
tounding, they say. Back 30
years ago, there were four busi-
nesses north of Crawfordville
to the county line two restau-
rants, a garage and Wakulla LP.
Sharol says she always an-
ticipated the growth would
come to Wakulla. It's natural,
she says, since people have dis-
covered Wakulla is the perfect
place to live.
Edwin expects that, in an-
other 30 years of growth, de-
velopment will be solid from
here to Tallahassee.
Of the changes in the
county, Edwin gets a wistful
smile remembering. "Crows
used to roost right there where
Winn-Dixie is now," he says.
"Something they liked about
the woods in there. The trees'
would be full of them."
Edwin Brown & Associates,
surveying, mapping and engi-
neering, is open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Monday through Thursday and
8 a.m. to noon on Friday. The
office can be reached at 926-
3016.

surface. They are scooped from
the tank, tiny white particles
swirling in the clear water. A
technician takes a sample of
the water and, using a micro-
scope, counts how many larvae
are in a sample. One female
shrimp can produce anywhere
from 60,000 to a half-million
eggs.
The larvae are then moved
to a large tank 'wheie they are:
feed algae and a special protein
formula. The water is fre-
quently tested for nitrates and
ammonia. Espejo estimates
that some 20 percent of the lar-
vae die during the first stages
of life. After 15 days, the larvae
are large enough to ship.
The facility ships the larvae
in 28 gallon plastic bags at a
low temperature with 50,000 to
100,000 in a container. In three
months of warm weather in a
tended pond, the shrimp will
be mature.
Prices are $10 for 1,000
shrimp or $10,000 for a million
shrimp.
"The price is a little higher
than for the Pacific white
shrimp," Espejo acknowledges,
but he figures the native Gulf
white shrimp are worth more.
There are seven Cuban bi-

ologists running the facility,
plus another person helping
out. The families have bought
homes in Crawfordville.
Espejo says he wants to
open up the facility to local
schools, bring in tours, for ex-
ample, of students from Medart
Elementary, and to have ma-
rine biology students from FSU
cole. ie to do research. '"'
They are getting to; the point'
with the facility, he says, where
they will soon.need to hire
people. currently the work day
is running from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
and then some hours during
the night, seven days a week.
The families like Wakulla
County, Espejo says, noting
that it is different than Miami.
"In Miami is ," and he
moves about, acting out the
word "dancing" as it comes to
him.
"Here is quiet," says biolo-
gist Sonia Pi. "So we move
here."
Other biologists working on
the project include Ralph
Ventura, Jackie Ventura, and
Vladimir Bagur.

850 Area Code Won't

Change, PSC Decides

A series of telephone num-
ber conservation measures
implemented by the Florida
Public Service Commission
(PSC) are paying off. Conser-
vation initiatives have re-
sulted in the issuance to car-
riers of 13.5 million fewer
numbers since 1999, meaning
fewer consumers will have to
face the expense and incon-
venience of changing area
codes.
The commission initiated
"thousands-block number
pooling," allowing phone
numbers to be allocated to
service providers in blocks of
1,000, instead of the histori-
cal 10,000. In addition, the
commission took back un-

used blocks of numbers from
carriers who did not assign
the numbers to customers.
The effect of the actions
taking by the commission is
the extension of the viability
of Florida's existing area
codes by anywhere from two
to 11 years. Because of popu-
lation growth, the prolifera-
tion of cell phones and dial-
up Internet services, Florida
has seen the number of area
codes expand from four in
1994 (305, 407, 813 and 904)
to the current 17.
In 2002, the PSC estimated
that the local 850 area code
would be exhausted by 2008.
In 2005, the exhausted esti-
mate was extended, to 2010.

-.... a z District Honors Golden, Smith

Students Display Their Brain Brawl Medals

Shadeville Crowns Team A

Hands trembled inches from
the buzzer and the competition
was tight as Shadeville Elemen-
tary School held its annual
brain brawl recently. The Wa-
kulla County Coastal Optimist
Club sponsored the event
which promotes academic suc-
cess.
Longtime announcer Mike
Carter and his fellow club
members volunteered their
time in assisting the school
with the event.
"Each fifth grade team played
extremely well and it was obvi-

ous that they had put a great
deal of effort into studying,"
said Assistant Principal Dee-
Ann Hughes.
Team B won. the competi-
tion and was represented by
Captain Randell Mainer, Bran-
den Piland, Jake Hunter, Emile
Barnes and Taylor Daniels.
Team B members received blue
ribbons.
Team A was led by Captain
Isaac Roe, Jonathan Chunn,
Emily Hodges, Tayler Williams
and Ashlan Eddy. Team A mem-
bers received red ribbons.

Jake Hunter won the ribbon
for being the high scorer on his
team while Jonathan Chunn
was awarded a ribbon for be-
Sing the high scorer on his team
and the highest overall scorer.
"We are very grateful to the
Optimist Club for the dedica-
tion and support of Shadeville
each year," said Hughes. "We
are very fortunate to have
people that care so much about
enhancing the educational op-
portunities for the students of
Shadeville- and Wakulla Coun-
ty."

When you walk into Cyn-
thia Golden's math class at
Wakulla Middle School, you
may find eighth grade stu-
dents working in a mock bank,
earning "money," receiving
printed "checks," or listening
to presentations from local
bank employees. Providing rel-
evant connections to math les-
sons for her students is one of
the reasons Golden was se-
lected as the Wakulla County
School District's March Teach-
er of the Month.
She has also been recog-
nized as a National Board Cer-
tified Teacher and will com-
plete the rigorous reading en-
dorsement program in May.
WMS Principal Jo Ann
Daniels said, "Cynthia Golden
is one of our most awesome
classroom teachers, No one in
our entire school gets the level
of improvement from students
that she does. Her students are
lucky that she is their teacher
because they are going to learn
and they are going to improve
their FCAT scores.
"Mrs. Golden has a gift for

Denise Smith's success as a
Riversprings Middle School
paraprofessional may be linked
to the nickname she earned as
"K-9 Unit," respectfully given to
her because she can sniff out
trouble. That awareness con-
tributes to her effectiveness
with behavior modification.
RMS Principal Dod Walker
gave the following explanation
of why Smith was selected as
the March Employee' of the-
Month: "Denise Smith is an
outstanding parapro in our ESE

Denise Smith
department. She goes above
and beyond the minimum ex-
pectations every day and
makes a positive impact in the
lives of students at RMS. She
is a team player with a single
purpose, that is, to help chil-
dren.
"She has a most challeng-
ing position, working with
learning disabled students, yet
she rises to that challenge
without complaining. Her rela-
tionship with the kids and her
determination to get the job
done right are personal stren-
gths and campus assets."
Smith attended Sopchoppy
Elementary School, Wakulla
Middle School and graduated
from Wakulla High School. She
then.went on to Lively Vo -Tech
and earned a secretarial certifi-
cate. Her eight years of experi-
ence as an administrative as-
sistant provided training that
is beneficial as well.
Smith said time speht with
students and helping them dis-
cover their strengths and ulti-
mate success bring her the
greatest job satisfaction. She
added that she enjoys the ca-
maraderie among her col-
leagues' not only at RMS but
throughout the district. Smith
is a 'greatJ supporter of extra-
Gurricular 'events and routinely
attends to cheer on'the stu-
dents at RMS.

at least a 3.5 grade point aver-

The eighth grade band from
Wakulla Middle School partici-
pated in the Florida Band-
master's District Festival at
Florida State University in Tal-
lahassee on Friday, March 10.
This festival provides an oppor-
tunity for the students and di-
rector to receive valuable feed-
back and comments to guide
the development of their band
program.
The bands are graded on
three songs that are prepared
and performed on stage and
they are also graded in sight-
reading which is playing two
songs that the band has never
practiced before the festival.
Director Laura Hudson stated
that this band was very well
prepared and gave 100 percent
of themselves in their perfor-
mance.
"I was so proud of how hard
they worked in preparing the
music," said Hudson. "These
students have a real sense of
pride in their performance that
I admire very much. I want to
thank Mr. Mike Crouch for
working with my band again
this year while we prepared for
the festival. His comments and
suggestions are invaluable to
my students and me. I also
appreciate Mr. Brian Dow (a

fellow teacher,at WMS) for his
valuable feedback during our
final joint rehearsal."
The band ratings awarded
at the festival are superior, ex-
cellent, good, fair, and poor.
Three judges grade the pre-
pared music and one judge
grades the sightreading. Wak-
ulla Middle received a superior
in sightreading and an overall
score of excellent.
"This festival is the equiva-
lent of FCAT for band pro-
grams," said Hudson. "It helps
us identify our strong and

weak areas and gives us direc-
tion for future growth. But,
more importantly, it gives stu-
dents a sense of value and ac-
complishment .in themselves
as musicians."
The band enjoyed a well-
deserved day of fun at Islands
of Adventures in Orlando the
next week on March 17. Their
next concert will be at Wakulla
Middle School on Monday,
April 17 at 7:30 p.m. The sev-
enth grade band and jazz band
will also be performing that
evening.

Hopefully March is going
out like a lion and April will
be a little calmer. The high
winds kept most people at
home this weekend but some
slipped out and a few caught
fish. This week high tempera-
tures should warm the water
temperatures back up after the
cold start to the week and this
weekend should be fantastic,
if the weather cooperates.
Scott at Jerry's Bait and
Tackle said the only fish he
weighed this weekend came
from the St. Marks River.
Charles Pulley took his wife,
Ayono Pulley, fishing and she
caught a 14 pound striper. Scott
said she was all smiles when
he took the picture.
Mike Hopkins said all in all
fishing was poor last weekend
and he saw very few fishermen
or fish caught. He talked to one
person who caught a bunch of
reds and another anglercaught
some sheepshead off the
sunken barge near the Lanark
Reef. A few trout were caught
but most were small. A few
pompano were caught but not
very many. Still no Spanish and
no more cobia.
I did talk to Phil Tooke out
of St. Marks and he said they
saw lots of Spanish and bait
off buoy 22 last week. The cold
probably slowed them down
from heading toward shore but
by the weekend things may
change.
Wendell Burton continues
to do well with trout fishing
near Shell Point using, the
Berkley Gulp. One day they'll
hit the New Penny and the
next will be the Molten Shrimp.
Mark and Louise Prance fished
Oyster Bay and Louise caught
and released a 27 inch red us-
ing live shrimp. Capt. Jerry
Alexander has been fishing
east of the lighthouse and find-
ing plenty of fish on the flats.
I fished for about two and

a half hours on Monday after-
noon and caught and released
about 25 trout. I caught most
of them on a straight jig and
grub, but if it wasn't tipped
with a small piece of shrimp
for the smell they didn't want
it.
Juanise said 8-year-old Brian
Jones was fishing with live
shrimp near Carrabelle and he
caught a nice red. Thirteen-
year-old Byron Sheffield, Jr.
was fishing out of Shell Point
with live shrimp and he caught
and released a 29 inch red.
Twig Peckman and crew
fished east of the lighthouse
and caught about 30 trout and
were able to keep 10. They
used topwater, jigs and live
shrimp. Eddie Hartsfield told
Juanise he fished one of the
lakes in the refuge and caught
some "real big bream" and cat-
fish using worms and crickets.
It's getting that time of the
year when there are going to
be a lot of boats on the water,

Glass Bottom

Tours Resume
Due to the dry weather,
Wakulla Springs State Park
started up the glass bottom
boat tours on Tuesday, March
28. The tours leave the dock at
noon, 1 p.m. and 2 p.m.
The water is clear enough
for the tours to operate for the
short term. Park officials invite
everyone to take advantage of.
the opportunity to enjoy the
glass bottom boats while they
can.

By GEORGE WEYMOUTH
A very strange March we're having. So far in my neck of the
county we've had one decent rain and one grass wetter and
that's itl Normally, March is the rainiest month of the year, and
since "transpiration" the absorption of rain by trees (mostly)
and release of the moisture back into the atmosphere has just
really started, (now that the trees are leafing out), most of the
normal March rains soak the ground and the result is flooding.
Not this March the woods and even river bottoms are very
dry. Ponds are very low tool Hopefully this very dry spell will
soon break, but normally April is one of our driest months, so
who knows, perhaps we're in for another record dry spring and
early summer, full of horrendous wildfires. Let's hope not!
Wildfires are certainly part of bur environment. Our forests,
and many plants, literally depend on fires. When I see a section
being managed with a control burn I realize there will be some
critters fried; there's hardly anyway to avoid such loss. Most
animals that perish in a fire are soon recycled by predators like
foxes, raccoons, etc., who directly benefit from the fire.
Soon, because the area is cleaned of underbrush, dead grass
and other debris, more wildlife will move into the burned area
than had previously been there, so in the long run, there will
be more turkeys, more deer, and eventually more of everything
until, in about three to five years, the area will need to be thinned
out again with another prescribed fire.
The.beauty of a prescribed or controlled burn is the fire is
often managed by back burning or burning into the wind. If the
wind is out of the west, they will set a number of small fires on
the east side of a designated tract and let the fire gradually
burn away into the westerly breeze, especially if there are a lot
of bushes and brush that must be controlled. Or they may set
the fires on the west side and let the wind carry the flames
quickly through an area sort of skipping along over the grass
tops, etc.
A slow fire, like one burning into the wind, gives slow crea-
tures more time to flee or burrow into the damp earth, find a
hole or water; whereas a flash fire, especially if the wind gets
out of hand, can really put the hurt on critters like box and mud
turtles or those water turtles on land laying eggs.
Before fire management and fire departments/stations, back
in "them thar days," most fires occurred in the summer months
from lightning. These fires swept uncontrolled through huge
areas and were only stopped by rains or rivers, bays, etc. The
tire was generally swept by the wind through the windy days
and was so intense and covered such an immense area it would
create its own weather!
Fortunately (unfortunately, according to many naturalists)
these "natural" fires are rarely allowed to just burn out. The
result is too much underbrush and dead tree accumulation. When
there is a fire the area burns too hot and many trees are scorched
severely and they die.
There is an section of Bradwell Bay Wilderness Area in the
Apalachicola National Forest that roasted in the big fires back
in '95 (I believe that was the year) because our "Smokey the
Bear" motto of stop any wildfire was being enforced too strictly
and too much fuel had accumulated! Now burning is recognized
as the way to save a forest. Though the Yellowstone National
Forest and park fire a decade ago was a tragedy (it seemed then),
now, because of new growth and a more varied habitat there's
more wildlife and a much healthier forest as a result. Let's just
hope we get some rain in the next few weeks or we may be in
for some "uncontrolled" fires, and that ain't good!

, By CAPT. JODY CAMPBELL

so be extremely careful out,
there. Some people are gonna
break down and ask for a tow.
Then there's gonna be that
time when you break down
offshore and there's nobody to
tow you in, or it's late in the
afternoon and everyone's
headed to shore and there's
nobody to give you a tow.
Fortunately, Sea Tow is
working between Carrabelle
and St. Marks so there is some-
one to give you a tow. Quite a
few insurance policies will pay
a certain amount for a tow but

if you don't have that type of
policy it will cost you an arm
and a leg to get towed and the
clock starts from the time he
leaves the dock until he gets
you in. You can purchase their
policy for a year at a price that
is less than what it cost to tow
you for an hour.
Also, if you break down and
are operating someone else's
boat or have rented a boat and
break down they will tow you
in. It's something to think
about if you're on the water a
lot. You can go to www.seatow.
com for all the details and
prices.
Remember to leave that
float plan with someone and
be careful out there. Good luck
and good fishing

er, retired US Air Force.
,Following are excerpts of
Jack's "reflections" following
his induction:
"Flying is something I love -
it started for me with Lind-
berg's 1927 flight. With a lov-
ing and understanding wife,
Jean, our Piper Cherokee 192FC
became a family member in
1968 and became a member of
the Coast Guard Auxiliary in
1975.
"Assigned to Coast Guard
Air Station, New Orleans, 2FC
now had a purpose to be air-
borne, something more than
taking the Rosenaus coast-to-
coast, to Mexico, Belize, the
Caribbean and north from
Florida into Michigan's land
above-below.
"I remember the hundreds
of times I've flown out of the
Tallahassee Airport to patrol
coastal North Florida. To me it
was always interesting par-
ticularly when flying near
Tyndall, Eglin and Hurlburt Air
Fields with air traffic passing
close overhead. The hundreds
of times I've returned safely to
the Tallahassee Airport, have
been even more remarkable!
"Search and Rescue flights
can be tedious, frustrating and,
finally, satisfying. Visibility and
wind conditions are critical;
whitecaps make individuals or.
even 20 or 30 foot fishing ves-
sels difficult or even impos-
sible to see. Availability of
good data, relative to the miss-
ing or lost target, is most im-
portant, as is communications.
Looking for the vessel report-
ing itself 15 miles south of the
St. Marks Light and finding it
25 miles southwest of the light
well, there is a lot of gulf out
there
"Flight crews seldom meet
or learn about those they
helped to rescue they are rou-
tinely advised to search an area
for a vessel with 'x' number of
people aboard. On locating the

"My wife, Jean, was my pri-
mary observer many years. She
is unable to be with us this
evening but, of my many other
observers, I am pleased to call
on the following to acknowl-
edge their presence: Marge
Jones, Lynne Reese, Sherrie
Alverson from Flotilla 13 and
Bill and Dawn Kitchens from
Flotilla 1-10 At Sneads, FL.
Those who have "gone west"
include Tom Kinnebrew, Joe
Emmons, Eschol Davis, Chuck
Alverson, and Don Gilbert.
"I retired my auxiliary flights
in January 2001 but am still fly-

ing weekends with son Rob;
he's now got the left seat of
our bird. She's still a strong
family member 38 years old
and still beautiful."

The lalque contained por-
tions of the following:
"Jack C. Rosenau was born
in Detroit, and served on ac-
tive duty in the Marine Corps
from 1940 to 1946. In 1964 he
earned his private pilot license
in Hawaii. Jack moved his fam-
ily, wife Jean and seven chil-
dren, to Tallahassee in 1970 and
brought with him his Cherokee
140.
"In 1974 he joined the U.S.
Coast Guard Auxiliary (a volun-
teer organization). Over a span
of more than 25 years, Jack
flew 550 coastal patrols, includ-

ing more than .100 marine en-
vironmental protection flights
and 60 Search and Rescue mis-
sions in support of Coast
Guard Air Station New Or-
leans. Jack was an invaluable
resource, often responding to
Search and Rescue cases hours
before the Coast Guard aircraft
could have arrived on scene."

The official beginning of
the boating season is this com-
ing Saturday, April 1. Both Flo-
tilla 13 and Flotilla 12 at St.
Marks will have patrols on
duty, and watchstanders will
be on duty at the CG Auxiliary
Station, Shell Point.
And now, Flotilla 12 news
as furnished by Carolyn Tread-
on:
Flotilla 12 had a busy week,
preparing for Springtime Tal-
lahassee and the beginning of
the boating season. In the
midst of all the festivities, we
will host a booth at the event
and pass out information to
individuals on boating safety.
Our members will be rotating
in and out throughout the day.
Duane and Carolyn Treadon
represented the auxiliary this
weekend at a community event
in Thomasville, GA. They
helped Thomasville Land-
mark's Incorporated, a non-
profit historic preservation or-
ganization, rehabilitate three
homes.
The historic homes are
owned by their residents and
were in need of repair. The resi-
dents were not able to com-
plete the work themselves due
to financial constraints, age
and disabiling conditions. The
work has been ongoing for sev-
eral months, and the weekend
was a time to have the com-
munity participate and com-
plete the major work. This is

an annual event for the com-
munity.
Flotilla 12 will have its
monthly meeting on Saturday,

Fire And Rescue Report

The Smith Creek Volunteer
Fire Rescue Department was
dispatched Tuesday to a ve-
hicle accident on Highway 375
(Smith Creek Road). The driver
of a Waste Management truck
lost control of the vehicle, left
the roadway and overturned.
The driver was trapped inside
the wrecked truck.
The Sopchoppy and Craw-
fordville fire rescue depart-
ments also responded to the
accident site to provide assis-
tance extricating the driver.
The firefighters removed the
driver from the wrecked truck
using jaws-of-life tools and a
wench mounted on one of the
Smith Creek fire trucks. The
driver was then airlifted to the"
hospital in Tallahassee.
Last week, the county's vol-
unteer fire rescue departments
responded to one brush fire,
two vehicle fires, one miscel-
laneous fire, nine vehicle acci-
dents and 15 medical emergen-
cies.

Did you know that many of
the county's volunteer fire-
fighters are trained medical
first responders?
If you were to call 911 re-
questing EMS due to a medi-
cal emergency, a volunteer first
responder would dispatch to
your home as well as EMS per-
sonnel. And, you might be sur-
prised to learn that the first
responder was one of your
neighbors! These first respond-
ers are trained in basic life sup-
port techniques such as CPR,
bleeding control and other ba-
sic non-invasive medical tech-
niques. Some even carry auto-
matic external defibrillators for
use in the event of a cardiac
arrest emergency.
It is important for the
county to have a first re-
spbnder program as an opera-
tional arm of the volunteer fire
departments for a number of
reasons. The most important

is due to the fact that it may
take an ambulance with EMS
personnel several minutes to
arrive at the location of a medi-
cal emergency at some of the
more remote locations through-
out the county.
Further, an EMS ambulance
could, on occasion, be delayed
due to being in the process of
transporting a patient to a hos-
pital in Tallahassee. But, be-
cause volunteer firefighter and
first responders live in most
areas of the county, a volunteer
first responder can often
quickly arrive on the scene of
a medical emergency and, if
needed, perform life-sustain-
ing functions until EMS arrives.
Over the past several years,
the county's first responders
have been directly responsible
for saving a number of lives.

We are indeed fortunate to
have dedicated residents who
are willing to be trained and
serve as medical first respond-
ers in order to provide their
neighbors and others with the
best possible emergency medi-'
cal services.
Although the first responder
program is directly associated
with the county's local volun-
teer fire departments, the
county's EMS personnel train
and certify the first respond-
ers and administer the pro-
gram.
The county's volunteer fire
departments receive no public
funding to support this vital
program. As a result, funds
needed to buy equipment and
supplies are generated by the
departments' fundraising
events. So, if your local volun-

teer firefighters and first re-
sponders are having a fund-
raising event, please support
them. Money earned goes for
a most worthwhile purpose!
Anyone interested in be-
coming a volunteer firefighter
or medical first responder
should contact their local vol-
unteer fire chief.

FIRST PUBLIC HEARING

NOTICE FOR A COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT

BLOCK GRANT APPLICATION

The City of St. Marks is considering applying to the Florida Department of Community
Affairs (DCA) for a Small Cities Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) of up to
Six Hundred Thousand Dollars ($600,000.00). These funds must be used forone of the
following purposes:
1. To benefit low and moderate income persons; or
2. To aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight; or

threat to the health or welfare of the community and where other financial
resources are not available to meet such needs.
The categories of activities for which these funds may be used are in the areas of
housing, neighborhood revitalization, commercial revitalization, or economic
development and include such improvement activities as acquisition of real property,
loans to private-for-profit business, purchase of machinery and equipment construction

munity. I will still live here."
The most pressing issues
facing the county are the ex-
pansion of the sewage treat-
ment plant and the expansion
of sewer lines to serve environ-
mentally sensitive areas such
as Wakulla Gardens.
At a time when Wakulla
County officials are working
with the City of Tallahassee
and the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection (DEP)
to protect Wakulla Springs, the
county must do its part to ad-
dress environmental concerns
within its borders, he said.
"I've spent a lot of time in.
Wakulla Gardens," said Bar-
wick. "We need to get DEP on
our side to help us get sewer
funding from the state." Bar-

wick has been meeting with
officials from Eutah Utilities to
put together a funding package
and accompanying information
to present to state lawmakers.
County officials hope to
build sewage treatment lines in
the Wakulla Gardens area to
keep an enormous number of
septic tanks from being permit-
ted in an area where 5,000 lots
are platted. "As Commissioner
(Ed) Brimner said, we need to
stop the bleeding and save the
rest of the area," Barwick con-
cluded.
With sewer constructed in
the community in the future,
Wakulla County officials will
have to wrestle with the issue
of how much density should
be allowed. The county's comp
plan allows higher density in
areas served by sewage treat-
ment lines.

DEP Permit Grants

Continued from Page 1
lowed nearly a month of nego-
tiations between the county
and city to upgrade the permit-
ted level of treatment and take
other measures to reduce pol-
lutants into the aquifer feeding
the spring."
County officials believe the
sprayfield and agricultural op-
eration have coincided with a
"threefold increase of nutrients
in the springs water, resulting
in a drastic increase in nuisance
aquatic plants and algae and a
loss of aquatic habitat, fish and
wildlife."
"We remain committed to
clean up Wakulla Springs," said
Commissioner Ed Brimner.
"But without higher levels of
treatment and nitrogen re-
moval, it is doubtful that that
will happen."
Commissioners have pledged
to do their part to clean up sur-
face and groundwater leading
to Wakulla Springs through
higher performance septic
tanks, sewage installation at
environmentally sensitive sub-
divisions, and wetland and
sink-hole protection ordinanc-
es.
"Springs in Florida require
crystal clear, nutrient free wa-
ter to thrive and survive," said
Paul Johnson, environmental
consultant for the county's ne-
gotiation team. "Without going
to Advanced Wastewater Treat-
ment (AWT) standards, these
springs will probably not make
it." AWT removes a significant
amount of nitrogen and is
available throughout the state,
added Johnson.
"We look forward to work-
ing out our differences with the
city through the administrative
hearing process," said Mowrey.
The petition to intervene in the
permit will not only be joined
by citizens and the Florida
Wildlife Federation but, "Attor-
ney General Charlie Crist has
also shown a keen interest in
the case,", the attorney said.
City of Tallahassee spokes-
person Michelle Bono said the
city has the same commitment
to protecting Wakulla Springs
as the county does. The city
initiated a $600,000 scientific
study with the U.S. Geological
Survey to monitor groundwa-
ter near the Southeast Farm.
A dye tracer report is under-
way but the results of the sur-
vey will not be available until
the end of the year, she said.
The city has comniitted $74
million to upgrade the sewage
treatment operation including
a $2 million biosolid dryer that
converts treated material to
residential fertilizer. Tallahas-
see officials said they are com-
mitted to reducing the nutrient
discharge by 30 percent. But the
city wants to have scientific
data from the study before
making any decisions.
"We have agreed to shorten
the length of the permit from
five to three years," said Talla-
hassee Water Utilities General
Manager Jim Oskowis. "We
have committed well over $100
million and we're working re-
ally hard to reach the same
goals."
Tallahassee officials refused
to agree to a county request to
reopen the permit process
through an interlocal agree-
ment if the dye tracer study
links the nitrogen discharge to
the city sewage plants.
"We are at an impasse," said
Mowrey. He asked the board
for the new vote to file the
petition to make it "very clear
in the record."
Brimner said that the protec-
tion of Wakulla Springs is criti-
cal to the economic welfare of
the county eco-tourism. He
added that commissioners
have not approved subdivi-
sions in the past two years
without sewage treatment or
Advanced Wastewater Treat-
ment. "We're,asking the city to
step up to the plate and match
us," he said.
The Friends of Wakulla
Springs State Park hope the
board action is the "beginning
of the restoration of Wakulla

Springs."
"Most scientists agree that
the majority of the data points
to the sprayfield," said Della
Parker-Hanson, of the Friends
group. "In fact there is no evi-
dence to the contrary. The time
to do something is now."
"The Friends have tried to
raise the bar on this issue," said
Friends member Crystal Wa-
koa: "This spring is more than
just the major tourist attraction
and economic stimulus for the

area."
"While nitrogen exiting at
Wakulla Springs is contributed
from many sources, the largest
single source of regionally pro-
duced nitrogen in groundwater
overwhelmingly appears to be
at Southeast Sprayfield and re-
lated farming operations," said
Jack Leppert, a founding mem-
ber of the Friends." And an-
other source is the city's South-
west Sprayfield, residuals
dumping and their farm cattle
grazing and fertilizer supple-
ment practices."
"We are pleased at the level
of solidarity between Wakulla
County Commissioners, the
citizens and the Wildlife Fed-
eration to strengthen the per-
mit," continued Leppert. "We
look forward to seeing Wakulla
Springs in good health again."
Manley Fuller, President of
the Florida Wildlife Federation,
said "We can no longer take for
granted that our springs are the
pristine, clear waters that we
remember. They are threat-
ened."
"All of us want the same
thing," said Commissioner
Brian Langston. "I think we'll
get there some time."
"The sprayfield was built 20
years ago and no one had any
intention of damaging the
groundwater," said Commis-
sioner Henry Vause. "But it is
happening."
Attorney Ron Mowrey said
he did not know how long or
how expensive the administra-
tive hearing process would be.
But Leppert said the appeal
"will never go to hearings."
He added. "The evidence is
overwhelming. We have the
science available today and
ways to address the problems.
The solutions are at hand. It's
,appeal) very winnable."

Harrison said the growth in
the county has forced the fire
departments to seek "quints."
A quint is a fire truck that per-
forms five major functions and
has an aerial ladder, ground
ladders, a pump, booster tank
and carries hose. Crawfordville
and Wakulla Station are seek-
ing quints. Harrison added that
the quints make it easier for
firefighters to battle fires at
higher structures.
The other equipment in the

grant proposal includes self
contained breathing apparatus,
protective bunker clothing,
thermal imaging cameras, per-
sonal gas monitors, extrication
equipment, trauma bags ana
confined space rescue equip-
ment.
The Crawfordville and Wa-
kulla Station fire departments
are seeking the largest chunk
of the funding at $650,000 each.
Wakulla County also- has vol-
unteer fire departments in St.
Marks, Apalachee Bay and
Smith Creek.
County commissioners au-
thorized the grant applications
without objections.
