Box 1 Oak Ridge, TN 37830 March 18, 2011 Dear Mayor Beehan and Honorable Members of Council, I am writing this as a supplement to my application for the Recreation and Parks Advisory Board. I have been an Oak Ridge resident since 1949. I was a stay-at-home mom until my youngest child started school. At that time I returned to college briefly and began to teach mathematics. Subsequently I attended UT during several summers earning a Masters degree in Mathematics. I taught at several area schools. I was the longest at Powell High School where I was Chairman of the Mathematics Department. After retirement I taught several semesters at Roane State Community College. My family and I have taken part in many Oak Ridge activities. For many years I was a volunteer reader of mathematics text books at Recording for the Blind. I also was a volunteer at ADFAC. My husband swims at the Civic Center pool and was involved with the mentally disabled. I was a singer in the Atomic City Sweet Adelines for many years. My husband and I are players in the Oak Ridge Duplicate Bridge Center in Grove Center. I enjoy the waterfront and frequently sit there and enjoy the scenery and watching the rowers. My son enjoys the bicycle paths and walking on the Greenways. I have had a continuous interest in the cultivation of cultural activities and in the diversification of our city.

  • Full Petition Here
    and several actually prohibit access to proceedings by anyone other than court personnel, parties, witnesses and lawyers, in direct violation of the Constitution. Because of this Court’s extensive work since March 13, 2020, to promote the safe operations of all Tennessee courts, including enabling and encouraging the use by courts of electronic communication tools such as teleconferences and video conferences, Petitioners now ask this Court to use its administrative and emergency power to protect the public’s Constitutional and common law right of access to court proceedings during the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, Petitioners ask that the Court, in adopting rules and plans for court operations throughout the pandemic: 1. Mandate that all Tennessee courts, judges, and judicial branch personnel preserve and honor the right of the public, including all Tennessee citizens, crime victims and their families, the criminal accused and their families, parties to civil actions and their families, and members of the press, to be personally present in court for in-person court proceedings, to the greatest extent possible. 2. Mandate that all Tennessee courts, judges, and judicial branch personnel, if electronic means are used to allow judges, court personnel, parties, counsel, court reporters, witnesses, or others to participate in court proceedings, accommodate the public’s right of access to proceedings by use of electronic means, such as listen- only or view-only access that allows members of the public to listen to or view court proceedings, with clear notice to the public of the availability of this access, regardless of the ability to be present in person, because of the constitutional nature of the rights of the public to access court proceedings.

    CULTURAL RESOURCES EXISTING CONDITIONS REPORT, NORTH SHORE ROAD ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT, SWAIN AND GRAHAM COUNTIES, NORTH CAROLINA FINAL REPORT ARPA Permit GRSM 03-001 SEAC Accession No. 1850 Submitted to ARCADIS G&M OF NORTH CAROLINA, INC. 800 Corporate Center, Suite 300 Raleigh, North Carolina 27607 By TRC GARROW ASSOCIATES INC. 501 Washington Street, Suite F Durham, North Carolina 27701 Project No. 02427 Authored by Paul A. Webb with contributions by Heather L. Olson and David S. Leigh January 2004 ABSTRACT/MANAGEMENT SUMMARY Cultural resource background studies have been undertaken as part of the North Shore Road Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), which is designed to determine the feasibility of and assess the potential environmental effects associated with fulfillment of a 1943 agreement among the U.S. Department of Interior (DOI), the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), Swain County, and the state of North Carolina, calling for the construction of a road along the North Shore of Fontana Lake in western North Carolina. This road proposal originated in the early 1940s with the construction of TVA’s Fontana Lake in Swain and Graham counties. Due to the inundation of parts of the Little Tennessee and Tuckasegee valleys, road access was cut off to some 44,000 acres lying above the reservoir pool on the north side of the lake. Rather than construct a road to access the area during wartime conditions, the TVA acquired the entire 44,000-acre area and subsequently transferred its ownership to Great Smoky Mountains National Park (GSMNP). Although limited road construction took place between 1948 and the early 1970s, construction was stopped in 1972 due to environmental and engineering concerns.

  • December 4, 2017 the Hon. Wilbur L. Ross, Jr., Secretary United States Department of Commerce 1401 Constitution Avenue, NW Washi
    December 4, 2017 The Hon. Wilbur L. Ross, Jr., Secretary United States Department of Commerce 1401 Constitution Avenue, NW Washington, D.C. 20230 Re: Uncoated Groundwood Paper from Canada, Inv. Nos. C–122–862 and A-122-861 Dear Secretary Ross: On behalf of the thousands of employees working at the more than 1,100 newspapers that we publish in cities and towns across the United States, we urge you to heavily scrutinize the antidumping and countervailing duty petitions filed by North Pacific Paper Company (NORPAC) regarding uncoated groundwood paper from Canada, the paper used in newspaper production. We believe that these cases do not warrant the imposition of duties, which would have a very severe impact on our industry and many communities across the United States. NORPAC’s petitions are based on incorrect assessments of a changing market, and appear to be driven by the short-term investment strategies of the company’s hedge fund owners. The stated objectives of the petitions are flatly inconsistent with the views of the broader paper industry in the United States. The print newspaper industry has experienced an unprecedented decline for more than a decade as readers switch to digital media. Print subscriptions have declined more than 30 percent in the last ten years. Although newspapers have successfully increased digital readership, online advertising has proven to be much less lucrative than print advertising. As a result, newspapers have struggled to replace print revenue with online revenue, and print advertising continues to be the primary revenue source for local journalism. If Canadian imports of uncoated groundwood paper are subject to duties, prices in the whole newsprint market will be shocked and our supply chains will suffer.
