No. 7 4^ &k ty* JULY'"37 ^ANGLER/ DO YOUR PART-REPORT POLLUTION FEW suggestions for sportsmen, when a pollution of water occurs. Very often you A hear the expression, can we help or what can we do? The season of hot weather and hot water is coming. This means less water for the same amount of fish and less air because of less water. This is a bad condition for fish as they must breathe. Take the air from the water in which they live and they die. Usually at this time of the year when the flow is abnormally low there are certain wastes dumped or at least find their way into our streams. Most of these wastes "grab" the oxygen from the water and start what will be a major killing offish, if it continues long enough. The horrible slaughter in French Creek, northwestern Pennsylvania, last summer is a perfect case of what happens when this pol­ lution occurs during low water. Actually tons of fish suffocated. In case of a fish killing, you ardent fishermen can show your interest and' help by observing a few simple rules which will not take much of your time. 1. Let us know promptly of any fish killings. A telegram or telephone call will allow us to have someone at the scene in time to know what is happening and trace the source of pollution. In a great many cases the actual killing starts a good distance below the pollution point. 2. Make note on paper of conditions at time of killing. Time it started, weather conditions, any peculiar actions of fish, general appearance of stream, etc. 3. Take samples of water in clean containers at time fish are suffering or killed. It is very important to use clean containers, bottles or jars which have been washed several times. When bottles are filled, place in cool place until advised where they can be analyzed. Remember promptness in reporting a pollution is of vital importance. Don't wait but let us know immediately. The pure streams bill, passed by the recent legislature, will surely mean the end of making cess pools and sewers out of our streams. This bill covers every kind of pollution except coal mine water, and as soon as the Sanitary Water Board can find a remedy, will also cover this form of pollution. C. A.

  • Hawlings River Watershed Restoration Action Plan
    Hawlings River Watershed Restoration Action Plan December 2003 MONTGOMERY COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION Montgomery County’s Water Quality Goals Montgomery County has a rich and diverse natural heritage, which includes over 1,500 miles of streams that provide habitat vital to aquatic life. To preserve this natural heritage, the County has adopted the following water quality goals (Montgomery County Code, Chapter 19, ArticleIV): • Protect, maintain, and restore high quality chemical, physical, biological, and stream habitat conditions in County streams that support aquatic life and uses such as recreation and water supply; • Restore County streams damaged by inadequate stormwater management practices of the past by re-establishing the flow regime, chemical and physical conditions, and biological diversity of natural stream systems as closely as possible through improved stormwater management practices; • Work with other jurisdictions to restore and maintain the integrity of the Anacostia River, the Potomac River, the Patuxent River, and the Chesapeake Bay; and • Promote and support educational and volunteer initiatives that enhance public awareness and increase direct participation in stream stewardship and the reduction of water pollution. What is the Countywide Stream Protection Strategy? The Montgomery County Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) first published the Countywide Stream Table 1. Montgomery County Stream Protection Strategy (CSPS) in 1998. The CSPS provides Resource Conditions County stream resource conditions on a subwatershed* (1994-2000) basis and recommends programs or policies to preserve, Percent Monitored protect, and restore County streams and watersheds.

WALCOTT, Director United States Geological Survey. 3 A GAZETTEER OF WEST VIRGINIA. HENRY GANNETT. DESCRIPTION OF THE STATE. The State of West Virginia was cut off from Virginia during the civil war and was admitted to the Union on June 19, 1863. As orig­ inally constituted it consisted of 48 counties; subsequently, in 1866, it was enlarged by the addition -of two counties, Berkeley and Jeffer­ son, which were also detached from Virginia. The boundaries of the State are in the highest degree irregular. Starting at Potomac River at Harpers Ferry,' the line follows the south bank of the Potomac to the Fairfax Stone, which was set to mark the headwaters of the North Branch of Potomac River; from this stone the line runs due north to Mason and Dixon's line, i. e., the southern boundary of Pennsylvania; thence it follows this line west to the southwest corner of that State, in approximate latitude 39° 43i' and longitude 80° 31', and from that corner north along the western boundary of Pennsylvania until the line intersects Ohio River; from this point the boundary runs southwest down the Ohio, on the northwestern bank, to the mouth of Big Sandy River.

  • Buzzard Point, DC: a Brief History of a Brief Neighborhood
    Buzzard Point, DC: A Brief History of a Brief Neighborhood Hayden M. Wetzel November 2014 (revised) Mid -1920s, from a glass-plate negative (HSW) Sachse, 1884 (LOC) Foreword This short study of the almost forgotten (but soon to be resurrected) area of southwest Washington DC known as Buzzard Point grew out of a landmark nomination for the Buzzard Point Power Plant researched and written in 2014 on behalf of the Southwest Neighborhood Assembly. There was no dedicated study of the history of this curious neighborhood beyond its very early years (after which chronicles of southwest Washington move to the more northerly parts), and I decided to continue the work to fill this hole. Due to the work’s origin in the power plant that part of our story has been given somewhat disproportionate attention but I have left it that way; the information is interesting and useful. (Sections on the history of electrical power generation in Washington and the design/construction company Stone & Webster have been removed here but will be found in the nomination on file with the city’s Historic Preservation Office.) The supporting material used in this study has been deposited with the Historical Society of Washington. The Capitol Riverfront BID and the Southwest Neighborhood Assembly generously underwrote the expenses of printing this booklet, and Mr. Baubak Baghi helped prepare the manuscript. I offer them my sincere thanks, as also to the institutions listed below. Illustration sources: Library of Congress, Prints and Maps Division (LOC); Historical Society of Washington, Kipplinger Library (HSW); National Defense University library, Special Collections (NDU); National Archives, National Capitol Planning Commission (NARA); author (HMW) Hayden M.

  • BUZZARD POINT Vision Framework + Design Review Guide NOVEMBER 2017
    BUZZARD POINT Vision Framework + Design Review Guide NOVEMBER 2017 BUZZARD POINT Vision Framework + Design Review Guide A New Waterfront Neighborhood The vision for Buzzard Point is to be a well-designed and well-programmed neighborhood with multiple attractions, excellent architecture, accommodating parks and public realm, and destination waterfront with greatly improved multi- modal transportation connections. This concept involves creating strong relationships to the surrounding areas and the Anacostia River, enhancing the environment and leveraging public investment in the South Capitol Street Corridor and the Soccer Stadium Project as catalysts and anchors for additional private investment. This document outlines a trio of goals which are supported with design concepts, recommendations, and implementation guidelines, as well as the partnerships necessary to make this vision and these goals a reality. It also describes the broader context, relevant planning initiatives, and regional influences. Vision Frameworks are pragmatic strategic planning efforts. Through targeted public outreach and data analysis, Vision Frameworks deliver high-level aspirations for a neighborhood and identify key implementation items and design guidelines to direct public investment and private actions. A Small Area Plan, on the other hand, is a more in-depth plan that typically includes recommendations to change future land use designations within the Comprehensive Plan. Small area plans are submitted to and adopted by the DC Council by resolution. Since land use changes were not needed for Buzzard Point, the Vision Framework approach was selected as the planning tool. During the Comprehensive Plan Second Amendment process, currently underway, key recommendations from the Buzzard Point Vision Framework + Design Review Guide will be incorporated into the Comprehensive Plan and submitted for DC Council adoption.
