(AP) — Susan Holmes’ home, corner store and roadside beef jerky stand are right off Oklahoma Highway 31, putting them in the path of trucks hauling ash and waste from a power plant that burns the high-sulfur coal mined near this small town. For years, when Bokoshe residents were outside, the powdery ash blowing from the trucks and the ash dump on the edge of town would “kind of engulf you,” Holmes said. “They drove by, and you just couldn’t breathe.” Over three decades, the ash dump grew into a hill five stories high. Townspeople regard the Environmental Protection Agency as the only source of serious environmental enforcement. Whenever people took their worries about ash-contaminated air and water to state lawmakers and regulators, “none of them cared,” Holmes said. So the residents of this 500-person town have nothing but bitter warnings for similarly situated communities now that President Donald Trump’s EPA has approved Oklahoma to be the first state to take over permitting and enforcement on coal-ash sites. “They’re going to do absolutely nothing,” predicted Tim Tanksley, a rancher in Bokoshe, about 130 miles southeast of Tulsa in a Choctaw Nation coal patch that helped fuel the railroads. Around the country, the EPA under Trump is delegating a widen- ing range of public health and environmental enforcement to states, saying local officials know best how to deal with local problems. Critics contend federal regulators are making a dangerous retreat on enforcement that puts people and the environment at greater risk. One administration initiative would give states more authority over emissions from coal-fired power plants. Another would In this Sunday, May 19, 2019, photo released by the U.S. Navy, sailors partake in a foreign object and debris walk-down on remove federal protections for millions of miles of waterways and the flight deck of the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln in the Arabian Sea.

Preparations began approximately two years ago, and the first Westfield 350 events began last fall. The Westfield 350 Historical Lecture Series began in late November and brought packed crowds of Westfield residents who learned much of the Sorgua Srhadi wins a pair of sunglasses from Westfield broad and niche history of their city. The first lecture discussed Bank’s Jessica Gescawind. the past celebrations of Westfield’s 200th, 250th, and 300th birthdays. The topics of the lectures ranged from the histories of specific Westfield figures, to sports in Westfield, to some of Westfield’s lesser known landmarks. Runners make their way to the finish line. The Westfield 350 also brought a now familiar fixture to downtown Westfield. The large cake sitting on the Park Square Green was installed in late December. It was built in a collabo- ration of several local businesses, including Westek Architectural Woodworking, where the cake was assembled. Rock said that the cake was a $70,000 project that took a lot of planning to come up with the final product. The interior of the cake is wired to light the 350 electric candles that were placed on the cake’s layers. The wooden structure will remain on the green until September, Rock said. He added that the organizers of the cel- ebrations are trying to find buyers who will use the cake instead of it having to be scrapped. He noted that there are several communities in the area who will be celebrating milestone birthdays in the near future, and that one of those towns may Miles Stern signs up for the Columbia Greenway Rail Trail end up with the cake.

Rock said that the two-years of planning and coordinating was extremely challenging, but that it paid off as much as he had hoped when everything was said and done. “It was a challenge-and-a-half,” said Rock, “but, for me, it was all about promoting civic pride and saying ‘thank you’ to our city.

Department, Westfield Gas and Electric, the Mayor’s Office, the Office of Community Development, and others. He also emphasized that, despite how widespread the celebra- tions were throughout the months and this weekend, no tax dollars were spent on the Westfield 350. Rather, the entire tcelebration was privately funded, the key sponsor being the Westfield Bank, Rock said. The next step now, said Rock, is getting ready for the city’s 400th birthday, which is right around the corner in 2069. Rock said that he was talking to some of the kids in the parade when he asked them how old they were, to which they responded eight and nine years-old. “I said, you know what, you’re going to be 58-years-old when the Westfield 400 comes. It’s going to be your job to plan the 400th anniversary,” said Rock, “I was plant- ing a lot of seeds. My hope is that we have created some traditions. I hope we have cre- ated some memories for the kids to grow up with.”

Chara skates before

Bruins’ practice

BOSTON (AP) — Three days after he had to miss Game 4 of the Eastern Conference final because of an undisclosed injury, Boston Bruins captain Zdeno Chara skated before practice on Sunday. The Bruins defeated the Carolina Hurricanes 4-0 to complete a sweep without Chara. They advanced to the Stanley Cup Final, which won’t start until May 27, to face either the San Jose Sharks or the St. Louis Blues, who are playing in the Western Conference final. About 30 minutes before the Bruins held their first practice since winning the Eastern Conference title, Chara skated with fel- low injured defenseman Steven Kampfer and Bruins skills coach Kim Brandvold. Chara did not participate in the full practice. Center David Krejci did not practice because of a “maintenance day”, but is expected to rejoin the team for their next practice.
