  • DRAFT 8/8/2013 Updates at Chapter 40 -- Karstology
    Chapter 40 -- Karstology Characterizing the mechanism of cavern accretion as "force" tends to suggest catastrophic attack, not a process of subtle persistence. Publicity for Ohio's Olentangy Indian Caverns illustrates the misconception. Formed millions of years ago by the tremendous force of an underground river cutting through solid limestone rock, the Olentangy Indian Caverns. There was no tremendous event millions of years ago; it's been dissolution at a rate barely discernable, century to century. Another rendition of karst stages, this time in elevation, as opposed to cross-section. Juvenile Youthful Mature Complex Extreme 594 DRAFT 8/8/2013 Updates at http://www.unm.edu/~rheggen/UndergroundRivers.html Chapter 40 -- Karstology It may not be the water, per se, but its withdrawal that initiates catastrophic change in conduit cross-section. The figure illustrates stress lines around natural cavities in limestone. Left: Distribution around water-filled void below water table Right: Distribution around air-filled void after lowering water table. Natural Bridges and Tunnels Natural bridges begin as subterranean conduits, but subsequent collapse has left only a remnant of the original roof. "Men have risked their lives trying to locate the meanderings of this stream, but have been unsuccessful." Virginia's Natural Bridge, 65 meters above today's creek bed. George Washington is said to have surveyed Natural Bridge, though he made no mention it in his journals. More certain is that Thomas Jefferson purchased "the most sublime of nature's works," in his words, from King George III. Herman Melville alluded to the formation in describing Moby Dick, But soon the fore part of him slowly rose from the water; for an instant his whole marbleized body formed a high arch, like Virginia's Natural Bridge.

  • Appendix a Places to Visit and Natural Communities to See There
    Appendix A Places to Visit and Natural Communities to See There his list of places to visit is arranged by biophysical region. Within biophysical regions, the places are listed more or less north-to-south and by county. This list T includes all the places to visit that are mentioned in the natural community profiles, plus several more to round out an exploration of each biophysical region. The list of natural communities at each site is not exhaustive; only the communities that are especially well-expressed at that site are listed. Most of the natural communities listed are easily accessible at the site, though only rarely will they be indicated on trail maps or brochures. You, the naturalist, will need to do the sleuthing to find out where they are. Use topographic maps and aerial photographs if you can get them. In a few cases you will need to do some serious bushwhacking to find the communities listed. Bring your map and compass, and enjoy!

  • Dorset Village Plan
    Revitalizing Southern Vermont’s Villages Dorset, Vermont August 2013 Dorset Revitalization Planning Dorset VT Dorset is a town in Bennington County, Vermont, United States. Dorset is famous for being the location of Cephas Kent's Inn, where four meetings of the Convention that signed the Dorset Accords led to the independent Vermont Republic, and future statehood. Dorset is home to America's oldest marble quarry and is the birthplace of Alcoholics Anonymous co-founder Bill W. East Dorset is the setting of the Bill Wilson House and the Griffith Library. The East Dorset marble quarry was established by Bill W's great grandfather and stayed in the family for 3 generations. Marble from these quarries provided stone for the New York Public Library Main Branch building in New York City The Town of Dorset has an area of 29,463 acres, or 46.04 square miles, made up of many types of land and waterways: flat valley land, swamps, rolling hills, steep mountains, streams and rivers. 14,228 acres contain slopes in excess of 20%, and 2,880 acres have elevations above 2500 feet. The physiography of the Town may be described as two roughly north-south valleys, which contain most of Dorset's development, together with parts of three north-south mountainous areas, which define the valleys. The eastern edge of the Town runs along the western slope of the Green Mountains. The southwestern corner of the Town occupies the northeastern slope of Mother Myrick Mountain, in the Taconic Mountain Range. Thrusting into Dorset from the north is a mountainous area, also part of the Taconic Range, extending south from Dorset Mountain, whose summit, close to the northern town line, is over 3800 feet above sea level.

  • Greenbrier County Comprehensive Plan Planning and Land Use I
    Greenbrier County Comprehensive Plan Planning and Land Use I. Summary Planning and Land Use focuses on land use and growth policies for Greenbrier County, including: Future Land Use Planning Policies Areas for both rural (Natural Resource and Rural Communities and Villages) and urban (Residential Transition and Designated Growth Areas) lands; Criteria and guidelines for evaluating new development; Neighborhood and community design standards (traditional neighborhood design, low impact design, LEED design standards, Earthcraft Design); and Best planning practices (planning programs and tools: flexible land use ordinances, capital improvements, impact fees, impact analysis and mitigation plans, and transfer/purchase of development rights) and professional planning framework. II. Planning and Land Use Policies, Goals, Objectives, and Strategies (Policy) Proactive Planning. Greenbrier County will adopt a proactive approach to planning in order to ensure the long term viability and sustainability of the communities, the heritage, and the environment, recognizing a responsibility to both current residents and property owners and to future generations of residents and property owners. (Policy) Consistency. All growth and development, both public and private, in Greenbrier County shall be consistent with the comprehensive plan. (Policy) Critical Features. All growth and development requests will be evaluated with respect to their impact on the critical, sensitive, or special, environmental, cultural, community, or historic resources shown on the Greenbrier Critical Features Maps included in this plan. (Policy) Future Land Use Map and Policy Changes. In order to minimize the potential impact from sprawl and inconsistent development patterns, comprehensive plan amendments and changes to the future land use map will only be approved after a detailed review of the proposal and the potential impacts and will only be considered if the requested change in designation is for property adjacent to a different land use category.

Chairman Ken Long was already there, visiting with the owner of the cave, Curtis Whitman. It wasn’t long before the rest of the entourage appeared: Cliff Gill, Krista Bartel, Linda Marg, Dwight, Rosie and Karen Weaver. We had a total of eleven members and four guests.
