Save the River! Annie Showed Us That One Person CAN Make a Difference Spring 2018 Forty Years As The Voice for “The River” This year Save The River celebrates our 40th anniversary. The Upper St. Lawrence River is a unique waterway; a River shared between two nations, First Nations, and tribes, connecting the world’s largest surface freshwater system to the ocean, and bearing the burden of legacy pollution, invasive species, construction of the St. Lawrence Seaway, commercial shipping, microbeads, fish advisories, combined sewer outfall discharges, and habitat damage from a decades-old water management plan that did not account for the environment - to name some of the issues facing it. As we look back on four decades since our founding in 1978, it seems appropriate to look at some of the milestones and issues we have tackled together with our members. •1958 - construction of the St. Lawrence Seaway leads to the inundation of nine Canadian villages and portions of Morrisburg and Iroquois, forcing the relocation of 6,500 people •1959 - the Seaway opens the River and Great Lakes to international shipping •1976 - the tug barge NEPCO 140 spills 300,000 gallons of oil into the St. Lawrence River, awakening the River valley to the dangers of commercial shipping •1978 - in August 500+ people, led by Barry Freed (later revealed to be Abbie Hoffman) and Johanna Lawrenson, attend a public meeting held by the Army Corps of Engineers to protest the idea of extending the commercial shipping season into the winter; Save The River is born out of this meeting, incorporating as a membership-based, not-for-profit corporation on October 31 •1979 - Save The River members testify against winter navigation before Congress •1981 - Save The River hosts the first annual River Volunteers in Alexandria Bay work to clean up the Jamboree with a concert featuring Pete Seeger 1976 oil spill •1983 - organized by Barry Freed, members protest the shipment of spent nuclear fuel across the Thousand Islands Bridge •1984 - following presentation of environmental, economic, and engineering evidence by Save The River, Congress formally ends consideration of winter navigation •1985 - Save The River hosts a Greenpeace ship in Clayton - River Currents becomes River Watch Each summer volunteers mark •1986 - The Slick of ‘76: A Musical Catastrophe, a musical farce that tells the story of the 1976 hazardous shoals with shoalmarkers oil spill is first performed on June 23, 1986 - ten years to the day of the 1976NEPCO 140 spill; the musical was developed as a tribute to the River and a gentle way to keep the memory of the 1976 spill alive •1987 - 56 shoal markers are purchased from the Thousand Islands Association to initiate the shoal marking program on the U.S. side of the River (continued on page 3) Protecting the St. Lawrence River through advocacy, education and research.

  • Toll Roads in the United States: History and Current Policy
    TOLL FACILITIES IN THE UNITED STATES Bridges - Roads - Tunnels - Ferries August 2009 Publication No: FHWA-PL-09-00021 Internet: http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/ohim/tollpage.htm Toll Roads in the United States: History and Current Policy History The early settlers who came to America found a land of dense wilderness, interlaced with creeks, rivers, and streams. Within this wilderness was an extensive network of trails, many of which were created by the migration of the buffalo and used by the Native American Indians as hunting and trading routes. These primitive trails were at first crooked and narrow. Over time, the trails were widened, straightened and improved by settlers for use by horse and wagons. These became some of the first roads in the new land. After the American Revolution, the National Government began to realize the importance of westward expansion and trade in the development of the new Nation. As a result, an era of road building began. This period was marked by the development of turnpike companies, our earliest toll roads in the United States. In 1792, the first turnpike was chartered and became known as the Philadelphia and Lancaster Turnpike in Pennsylvania. It was the first road in America covered with a layer of crushed stone. The boom in turnpike construction began, resulting in the incorporation of more than 50 turnpike companies in Connecticut, 67 in New York, and others in Massachusetts and around the country. A notable turnpike, the Boston-Newburyport Turnpike, was 32 miles long and cost approximately $12,500 per mile to construct. As the Nation grew, so did the need for improved roads.

    INTERVIEW WITH KEN DEEDEY, MAY 18, 2018 Conducted by Ted Mascott Max DelSignore: The St. Lawrence River community and the North Country lost a passionate environmental advocate with the passing of Ken Deedy in the summer of 2018. A long-time Grindstone Island resident, Ken had an unwavering affinity for River area organizations, and was a principal founder of the Thousand Islands Land Trust, based in Clayton, New York. He served as president of the land trust for 16 years, and a board member for 33 years. Ken also maintained a charitable fund at the Northern New York Community Foundation that benefitted River area programs for many years. Ken was a great storyteller. A few weeks before his death, in August of 2018, he reflected on his fondest memories with his good friend, Ted Mascott. The following is a series of stories that capture the personalities and spirit of the many North Country people that, taken together, weave a fabric of caring, giving, and preserving. We hope you enjoy listening to this conversation with Ken Deedy. SEGMENT A: When and how Ken first came to the 1000 Islands and later purchased the cottage site on Grindstone Island. Ted: I thought we might start by your telling us how you first came to the river, you and your family. Ken: Well, I was a teenager I think, probably- Ted: And what year would that have been? Ken: Either '50, or '51. I never did look it up. My brother was in the army at the time, serving in Germany during the Korean war, and my parents, who both worked, would get annual vacations.

    COLUMBIA RIVER CROSSING CROSS-JURISDICTIONAL LAWS, GOVERNANCE AND FUNDING TECHNICAL REPORT Prepared for: The Washington State Legislature Prepared by: Jacobs Engineering Group June 30, 2011 1 COLUMBIA RIVER CROSSING Cross-Jurisdictional Laws, Governance and Funding Introduction The states of Washington and Oregon plan to use tolling as a source of funds for the construction of a new bridge to replace the existing Columbia River Crossing (CRC) along I-5. The proposed CRC project includes replacing the two existing side-by-side bridges and extending light rail service to Vancouver. During the 2010 legislative session, the Washington State Legislature (pursuant to ESSB 6381), directed the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) to work with the Washington State Transportation Commission, the Oregon State Department of Transportation, and the Oregon State Transportation Commission to analyze and review potential options for a bi-state, toll setting framework for the Columbia River Crossing (ESSB 6381). The Legislature required that the analysis include a review of statutory provisions and the governance structures of toll facilities in the United States that are located within two or more states and a review of relevant federal law regarding transportation facilities that are located within two or more states. The Legislature also directed WSDOT to consult with the two State Treasurers regarding the appropriate structure for issuing debt for toll facilities that are located in two or more states. Approach to Analysis As directed by the Legislature, this report first reviews relevant federal laws and funding regarding transportation facilities that are located within two or more states; and the statutory provisions and the governance structures of toll facilities in the United States that are located within two or more states.
