TIPERS BRIDGE (Great Wicomico River Bridge) Spanning the Great
TIPERS BRIDGE HAER No. VA-58 (Great Wicomico River Bridge) Spanning the Great Wicomico River at Virginia State Route 200 at Glebe Point Kilmarnock Vicinity Northumberland County Virginia PHOTOGRAPHS WRITTEN HISTORICAL AND DESCRIPTIVE DATA HISTORIC AMERICAN ENGINEERING RECORD National Park Service Northeast Region Philadelphia Support Office U.S. Custom House 200 Chestnut Street © Philadelphia, PA 19106 tL HISTORIC AMERICAN ENGINEERING RECORD TIPERS BRIDGE (Great Wicomico River Bridge) HAER No. VA-58 Location: Spanning the Great Wicomico River on Virginia State Route 200 at Glebe Point Kilmarnock Vicinity Northumberland County Virginia USGS Reedville Quadrangle, Universal Transverse Mercator Coordinates: 18.378360. 4189550 Fabricator: Virginia Bridge and Iron Company of Roanoke, Virginia Date of Construction: July through December 1934 Present Owner: Virginia Department of Transportation 1401 East Broad Street Richmond, Virginia 23219 Present Use: Vehicular Bridge Significance: Built in six months during the depth of the Depression, the Tipers Bridge is a well preserved example of a once standard bridge type that was commonly used to economically span a large number of major river crossings in the Virginia Tidewater. It is located at a crossing that has a long history of some economic importance in Northumberland and Lancaster Counties. This is the second oldest of ten remaining swing- spans dating from between 1930 and 1957 currently listed in the Virginia Department of Transportation bridge inventory. Project Information: This documentation was undertaken in May 1991 under contract with the Virginia Department of Transportation as a mitigative measure prior to the removal and disposal of the bridge.

Circumnavigating the Delmarva Peninsula
Circumnavigating The DelMarVa Peninsula By Matthew B. Jenkins s/v Moondance June 2002 Chesapeake Bay Lighthouse Project http://cblights.com Circumnavigating the Delmarva Peninsula By Matthew Jenkins, June 2002 http://cblights.com The Delmarva Peninsula forms the eastern side of the Chesapeake Bay, separating it from the Atlantic Ocean. As it’s name implies, it covers three states – Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia. In June 2002 my wife, Gail, and I started from Deale, MD, about 15 miles south of Annapolis, and circumnavigated the Delmarva in our 28 foot sloop Moondance. We took two weeks and covered 515 nautical miles in the process. This is something a fair number of Bay sailors think of doing. While preparing for this trip we encountered a certain amount of difficulty finding information for the C&D Canal, Delaware River, and Atlantic passage segments. We were more apprehensive about some things then we should have been, and ignorant of things it would have been nice to know about. The following article is an attempt to address these issues while also documenting our trip to a lesser extent. Why do it? An obvious question is why circumnavigate the Delmarva? We came up with three reasons for our trip. 1. This was the natural progression in our cruising education. We’ve owned Moondance since 1997 and have been fairly hard core in our cruising of the Bay. We’ve bought into the “cruising dream” to a certain extent and the circumnavigation offered a “next step” opportunity for honing our skills including some small degree of passage making, with shift sailing through a couple days and nights. -

Persistent snow and rain throughout the mid-Atlantic region caused heavy streamflows in the major tributaries of the Chesapeake, and depressed salinities throughout the lower Bay. Maximum measured salinities were generally 6-12‰ lower than in the previous year. Water at upriver oyster beds, such as Deepwater Shoal in the James River, was very nearly fresh for much of the year. Water temperatures were generally lower as well. In 2002, water temperature at Gloucester Point on the York River never fell below 5.5°C. -
Comparative Analysis of Mycobacterial Infections in Wild Striped Bass Morone Saxatilis from Chesapeake Bay
DISEASES OF AQUATIC ORGANISMS Vol. 67: 125–132, 2005 Published November 9 Dis Aquat Org Comparative analysis of mycobacterial infections in wild striped bass Morone saxatilis from Chesapeake Bay Ilsa M. Kaattari*, Martha W. Rhodes, Howard Kator, Stephen L. Kaattari Department of Environmental and Aquatic Animal Health, Virginia Institute of Marine Science, College of William and Mary, Gloucester Point, Virginia 23062, USA ABSTRACT: During an ongoing epizootic of mycobacteriosis, wild striped bass Morone saxatilis from Chesapeake Bay were analyzed using 3 methods for detection of either mycobacterial infection or associated granulomatous pathology. The specific detection techniques, which utilized aseptically collected splenic tissue, were histology, quantitative culture and nested PCR. Based on analysis of 118 samples, detection of infection differed significantly between the 3 methods (chi-square, p = 0.0007). Quantitative culture and nested PCR detected similar, higher rates of infection (69 and 75%, respectively) than the histological method (52%). Although primary PCR assays for a 924 to 940 bp segment of the mycobacterial 16S rRNA gene were positive for genomic DNA from mycobacterial cultures, a secondary, nested PCR reaction for an internal 300 bp gene segment was required in order to detect mycobacteria within splenic tissue. A similar rate of mycobacterial infection was present in fish collected from all sites tested. Although all detection methods found that striped bass age 4.0 to 4.9 yr had the highest positive incidence, nested PCR detected a higher frequency of mycobacterial infection in fish ≥6.0 yr of age than the other 2 methods. Quantitative bacteriology was a more sensitive detection technique when the fish tissue contained ≤103 mycobacteria g–1. -

U.S. Coast Guard Historian’s Office Preserving Our History For Future Generations Historic Light Station Information VIRGINIA ASSATEAGUE LIGHT Lighthouse Name: Assateague Island Light Location: Southern end of Assateague Island Date Built: Established in 1833 with present tower built in 1867 Type of Structure: Conical brick tower with red and white stripes; Height: Tower is 145' with a 154' focal plane Characteristic: Originally a fixed white light, with a fixed red sector (added in 1907), changed to two white flashes every 5 seconds in 1961, visible for 19 miles. Lens: Original lens was an Argand lamp system with 11 lamps with 14 inch reflectors. The 1867 tower had a first order Fresnel lens with four wicks, now DCB 236. The Fresnel lens was made by Barbier & Fenestre, Paris 1866 Appropriation: $55,000 Automated: 1933 when changed to battery power Status: Open Easter through May, and October through Thanksgiving weekend every Friday through Sunday from 9 am to 3 pm; During June, July, August and September open Thursday through Monday from 9 AM to 3PM, last climb 2:30 PM call (757) 336- 3696 for information. Historical Information: The original light was built in 1833 was only 45 feet tall and was not sufficient for coastal needs so in 1859 Congress appropriated funds to build a higher, more effective tower. Work began in 1860 but was suspended during the Civil War. The current structure was completed and lit in 1867. The keeper's quarters built in 1867was a duplex. In 1892 it was remodeled with three large sections of six rooms each to house three families with each section including a pantry, kitchen, dining room, living room, three bedrooms, bathroom, and large closet. -
