Florida Historical Uarterly
The Florida Historical uarterly APRIL 1970 PUBLISHED BY THE FLORIDA HISTORICAL SOCIETY FRONT COVER “A View of Pensacola in West Florida” is a black and white engraving published and dedicated by George Gauld to Sir William Burnaby, rear admiral and commander of the British fleet at Jamaica. From the British ensigns on the vessels and the flag flying from the flagstaff, this is obviously a picture of Pensacola during the British period. Since Gauld’s name is not mentioned in any reference sources as an engraver, and since such a skill is not mentioned in his book, it is unlikely that he was the engraver of this picture, but he probably drew the sketch of the scene from which it was made. The engraving is in the Prints and Photographs Division, Library of Congress. Gauld, surveyor of the coasts of Florida, was born in 1732 at Ardbrack, Bamffshire, and he was educated at King’s College, Aberdeen. In 1763 he was appointed to make a survey of all newly acquired English territory in the West Indies, and in March of the following year he sailed aboard the Tartar for Jamaica to join Burnaby’s fleet. In August 1764 he accompanied Sir John Lindsay to Pensacola and he may have made a sketch of the harbor at that time. He was a friend of Philip Pittman, author of The Present State of the European Settlements on the Mississippi . (1770), and Thomas Hutchins whose An Historical Narrative and Topogaphical Description of Louisiana, and West-Florida was published in 1784. They helped him draft charts and plans of West Florida. -

* This Is an Excerpt from Protected Animals of Georgia Published By
Common Name: BLACKBANDED SUNFISH Scientific Name: Enneacanthus chaetodon Other Commonly Used Names: none Previously Used Scientific Names: none Family: Centrarchidae Rarity Ranks: G4/S1 State Legal Status: Endangered Federal Legal Status: Not Listed Description: The blackbanded sunfish is a small, laterally compressed and deep-bodied species reaching a maximum total length of 100 mm (4 inches). There is a prominent notch separating the spinous and soft-rayed portions of the dorsal fin. It is distinctively marked with 5-6 black bars along the sides that extend from the dorsum to the venter. The first of these bars passes through the eye, and the third extends through the first three membranes of the spinous dorsal fin to the upper edge of the fin. No other sunfish has this barring pattern. The blackbanded sunfish is also very colorful with black vertical bars, olive-brown to variegated-brown on the dorsum and upper sides, and orange-copper marking the leading edge of the pelvic fins and the irises. Similar Species: The small body size and distinctive color pattern make it difficult to confuse the blackbanded sunfish with any other fish species in Georgia waters. It may superficially resemble the banded (Enneacanthus obesus) and bluespotted (E. gloriosus) sunfishes, which differ in having only a shallow notch separating the spinous and soft-rayed portions of the dorsal fin and lacking the prominent dark bar extending through the anterior dorsal fin membranes. Habitat: Blackbanded sunfish are restricted to shallow, low-velocity, non-turbid waters of lakes, ponds, rivers and streams. They are strongly associated with aquatic plants, which provide habitat for foraging and cover. -

December Mcsherry
Portland Cement NESHAP rulemaking: 40 CFR Part 63 National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants from Portland Cement Manufacturing Industry; Proposed Rule Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2002-0051 My name is December McSherry. I own and operate a 750 acre farm in Archer, Florida. My family and I raise Black Angus cattle and sell calves, hay and grain commercially. I am a member of the National Cattlemen's Association, Florida Cattleman's Association, American Angus Association and Florida Farm Bureau. Located on our farm are wetlands and several ponds as well as a mature forest that harbors wildlife such as quail, turkeys, hawks, eagles, kestrels, deer and many species of frogs and snakes. Our farm is located in the high aquifer recharge area for the Floridian Aquifer, the sole source for drinking water in the region. This area is rated high for pollution potential by the Suwannee River Water Management District (SRWMD). I am concerned about air pollution damaging my home, farm and business because we live downwind of 2 portland cement plants. Fl DEP permits allow release of up to 400 pounds per year of mercury in addition to several tons hazardous air pollutants. This year two additional cement plants have been approved by FL DEP that would bring the total up to 800 lbs. released near my home. Methylmercury is the most hazardous emission; it is a developmental neurotoxicant. The cement plants near my home have already impacted air quality and have deposited mercury to area water bodies. When my family gets time off from farm work we go fishing.
