  • PHIL CAMPBELL, ALABAMA Long-Term Community Recovery Plan November 2011
    PHIL CAMPBELL, ALABAMA Long-Term Community Recovery Plan November 2011 PHIL CAMPBELL, ALABAMA Long-Term Community Recovery Plan November 2011 LETTERS OF SUPPORT Table of Contents EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1 INTRODUCTION 5 RECOVERY PROJECTS 11 Community Planning + Capacity Building 17 Economic Development 25 Health + Social Services 29 Housing 35 Infrastructure 43 Natural + Cultural Resources 47 NEXT STEPS + IMPLEMENTATION 59 FUNDING + CAPACITY BUILDING 65 LETTERS OF SUPPORT 70 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 72 An idea is salvation by imagination – Frank Lloyd Wright EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Phil Campbell Long-Term Community Recovery Plan is a community-driven effort initiated by local officials and directed by the Phil Campbell Recovery Committee. The contents of the plan are based on committee decisions that were guided by input from the community. This recovery planning effort constitutes the beginning of an endeavor to rebuild the Town of Phil Campbell, Alabama following the destruction of the April 27, 2011 tornadoes. The planning process began when Phil Campbell officials formally invited the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Long-Term Community Recovery (LTCR) division to provide technical assistance during the town’s recovery process. The objective of LTCR is to build local capacity to recover while facilitating the initial recovery planning process as a step in the community’s long-term recovery efforts. The Phil Campbell Recovery Committee, with community input and LTCR support, analyzed the disaster impacts and identified six general sectors for recovery: Community Planning and Capacity Building, Economic Development, Health and Social Services, Housing, Infrastructure, and Natural and Cultural Resources. These provided the framework for the committee and the LTCR Team to develop recovery projects based on community input.

(Page 153) Some of the transportation providers listed in this book are for profit businesses. This book is not intended as an advertisement for them but rather, it is an attempt to list all sources of transportation which are available in the community. Listing a provider in this book does not mean the Alabama Department of Mental Health endorses this provider. All of the prices listed are subject to change. This book may be outdated on the day it is released. While compiling the book we discovered that some of the resources had ceased providing transportation options due to business closure or cut backs in their budgets.

Governments (NACOLG) Section 1.0: Introduction: Purpose, Process and Organization 1 1.0 Introduction: Purpose, Process and Organization 1.1. Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy & Purpose The Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) is a five‐year strategy for economic development in northwest Alabama. It brings together private and public interests to create a guide to economic development for the five‐county region of northwest Alabama that includes Lauderdale, Colbert, Franklin, Marion, and Winston Counties. The CEDS is designed as a regional comprehensive plan. It involves development district partners, including local government representatives, workforce training providers, non‐profit Chambers of Commerce, local economic development authorities; it encompasses a broad range of important initiatives in order to define the economic development landscape of northwest Alabama and direct the Northwest Alabama Council of Local Governments (NACOLG), which is the regional Planning Organization designated by the Economic Development Administration of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Through analysis of the region’s unique characteristics, the CEDS provides an opportunity to analyze the human and physical capital of the region and establish priorities for investment and funding leading to job creation and retention. The CEDS is the outcome of an on‐going, diverse and inclusive planning process involving both private and public partners. This process allows the formation of a strategy representing the widest possible constituency and presenting the viewpoints of laypeople and professionals as to the direction and character of economic growth in the region.

ROBINSON1* & CHARLES R. PARKER2 1University of Illinois, Prairie Research Institute, Illinois Natural History Survey, 1816 S Oak St., Champaign, IL 61820 [email protected] 21936 Maplewood Way, Sevierville, TN 37876 [email protected] Abstract We describe a new species in the caddisfly genus Rhyacophila (Trichoptera: Rhyacophilidae) from the southern Cumberland Plateau of the United States. Rhyacophila dandaganu n. sp. is placed in the Rhyacophila lobifera Group from North America, the second known species in this group. The new species is distinguished from Rhyacophila lobifera Betten, 1934 by the shape and dimensions of several genitalic structures, as well as the absence of parameres accompanying the endotheca and the characteristic shape of the tenth segment and phallicata. We discuss the geographic range of these two species and the questions raised by the curious (apparent) lack of sympatric populations. We discuss some testable hypotheses that might determine how populations of R. dandaganu n. sp. and R. lobifera could maintain phenotypic distinctiveness, in the absence of obvious geographic barriers to gene flow, including behavioral, chemical or tactile mating cues. Key words: Rhyacophila, Cumberland Plateau, new species, parameres, distribution, Appalachia Introduction Species of the genus Rhyacophila are typically associated with cool or cold-water habitats, in seeps and small streams and cold rivers across the Northern Hemisphere (Ross 1956).
