Soil Survey of Mecklenburg County, Virginia United States In cooperation with Department of Virginia Polytechnic Agriculture Institute and State Soil Survey of University Mecklenburg Natural County, Virginia Resources Conservation Service i How To Use This Soil Survey Detailed Soil Maps The detailed soil maps can be useful in planning the use and management of small areas. To find information about your area of interest, locate that area on the Index to Map Sheets. Note the number of the map sheet and turn to that sheet. Locate your area of interest on the map sheet. Note the map unit symbols that are in that area. Turn to the Contents, which lists the map units by symbol and name and shows the page where each map unit is described. The Contents shows which table has data on a specific land use for each detailed soil map unit. Also see the Contents for sections of this publication that may address your specific needs. ii National Cooperative Soil Survey This soil survey is a publication of the National Cooperative Soil Survey, a joint effort of the United States Department of Agriculture and other Federal agencies, State agencies including the Agricultural Experiment Stations, and local agencies. The Natural Resources Conservation Service (formerly the Soil Conservation Service) has leadership for the Federal part of the National Cooperative Soil Survey. This survey was made cooperatively by the Natural Resources Conservation Service and the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. The survey is part of the technical assistance furnished to the Southside Soil and Water Conservation District. The Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation, Division of Soil and Water Conservation and the Mecklenburg County Board of Supervisors provided financial assistance for this survey. Major fieldwork for this soil survey was completed in 1987. Soil names and descriptions were approved in 1990. Unless otherwise indicated, statements in this publication refer to conditions in the survey area in 1990. The most current official data are available at http://websoilsurvey.nrcs.usda.gov/. Soil maps in this survey may be copied without permission. Enlargement of these maps, however, could cause misunderstanding of the detail of mapping. If enlarged, maps do not show the small areas of contrasting soils that could have been shown at a larger scale.

  • Smokeless Tobacco Products
    California Youth Advocacy Network Page 1 of 2 Smokeless Tobacco Products There are two main types of smokeless tobacco sold in the United States – chewing tobacco and snuff.1 Both chewing tobacco and snuff come in several forms, some of which require the user to spit and others that are spitless. HEALTH EFFECTS OF SMOKELESS TOBACCO2 • Contains nicotine and at least 28 known cancer-causing agents. • Associated with oral health problems such as recessed gums, gum disease, and tooth decay. CHEWING TOBACCO • Known to cause a number of different types of cancers including cancer of the lip, floor of the mouth, cheeks, gums, throat, voice box, esophagus, and pancreas. • Causes bad breath, stains on teeth, and mouth sores. QUICK FACTS • Most smokeless tobacco users are males.2 • Use in the United States is highest among young adult white males, Native Americans, Alaska Natives, and people living in the Southern United States.2 • Initiation happens early: 10.7% of smokeless tobacco users started before the 6th grade, 43.5% by the 9th grade, and 85% by the 11th grade.2 SNUFF • Products that are designed to be smoke-free and spit-free are aggressively marketed to circumvent current smoke-free policies, decrease tobacco cessation efforts, and promote dual use of cigarettes and smokeless products.3 MYTH VS. TRUTH ENERGY DIP MYTH: Smokeless tobacco is a safer alternative to cigarettes. TRUTH: There is no such thing as a safe tobacco product. Health risks of smokeless tobacco use include cardiovascular disease, cancer, and other health problems.2 MYTH: Smokeless tobacco can help someone quit smoking.

PAUL SCHMIDT* In 1997, the federal court system granted final approval for the Lake Gaston Pipeline, thereby paving the way for Virginia Beach, Virginia, to begin taking water from Lake Gaston for use in Southside Hampton Roads.' Virginia Beach is located in the extreme southeastern comer of Virginia, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Chesapeake Bay. Lake Gaston sits astride the North Carolina-Virginia State Line, some one hundred miles inland. This court decision was the culmination of a long and drawn-out battle that had been raging since 1983, and will not likely conclude until long after the turn of the millenium. Controversy always seems to surround inter-basin transfers of water, even in the water-rich East, and water rights were at the core of this particularly divisive battle.3 Although Virginia Beach is located in the Elizabeth River Basin, the Lake Gaston pipeline draws water from the Roanoke River Basin, thus reducing the supply of water available for the people living along the banks of the Roanoke River.

  • Swedish Snuff (Snus) and Risk of Cardiovascular Disease and Mortality: Prospective Cohort Study of Middle-Aged and Older Individuals Olga E
    Titova et al. BMC Medicine (2021) 19:111 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12916-021-01979-6 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Swedish snuff (snus) and risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality: prospective cohort study of middle-aged and older individuals Olga E. Titova1, John A. Baron1,2,3, Karl Michaëlsson1 and Susanna C. Larsson1,4* Abstract Background: Cigarette smoking is a well-known risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), but whether smokeless tobacco such as snuff is associated with the risk of CVD is still unclear. We investigated the association of the use of Swedish oral moist snuff (snus) with a broad range of CVDs and CVD mortality. Methods: We used data from a population-based cohort of 41,162 Swedish adults with a mean baseline age of 70 (56–94) years who completed questionnaires regarding snus use and other lifestyle habits and health characteristics. Participants were followed up for incident cardiovascular outcomes and death over 8 years through linkage to the Swedish National Patient and Death Registers. Hazard ratios (HR) were estimated by Cox proportional hazards regression. We conducted analyses among all subjects as well as among never smokers to reduce residual confounding from smoking. Results: After adjustment for smoking and other confounders, snus use was not associated with myocardial infarction, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, aortic valve stenosis, abdominal aortic aneurysm, stroke, or CVD mortality. However, in never smokers, snus use was associated with a statistically significant increased risk of total and ischemic stroke (HRs [95% confidence intervals] = 1.52 [1.01–2.30] and 1.63 [1.05–2.54], respectively) and non-significantly positively associated with some other CVDs.

The Virginia Beach Quest for Water: Drowning in a Sea of Litigation* "There's always an easy solution to every human problem-neat, plausi­ ble, and wrong." 1 -H.L. Mencken I. INTRODUCI'ION The negotiated settlement in a then 12-year interstate water dispute between North Carolina and Virginia Beach fizzled at midnight June 30, 1995 when unresolved issues extended past the deadline. This long-run­ ning dispute bears similarities to other interstate and intrastate water disputes. However, it does not yet rival the continuing Arizona-California dispute over the division of Colorado River water, nor does it reveal the extensive litigation to win approval for building the Central Arizona Project.2 Nevertheless, this dispute on the opposite end of the country began when Virginia Beach recognized that its water resources would not meet the demands caused by the growth in population and industry.
