    Final Documentation Report Chisholm Fire (LWF-063) Forest Protection Division TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.0 OVERVIEW.................................................................................................................. 2 1.1 Context ................................................................................................................... 2 1.2 Chisholm Community............................................................................................. 2 1.3 Documentation Team.............................................................................................. 3 Section 1.0 1 1.0 OVERVIEW 1.1 CONTEXT Over the past decade, fire seasons in North America have generally increased in both length and severity. In both 2000 and 2001, the fire season in Alberta was officially declared on March 1, one month earlier than all previous years on record. Coinciding with this has been the aging of forests throughout North America beyond their natural historic ranges, and the increase in community and industrial developments in forested areas which are creating a greater number of wildland/rural/industry interface boundaries. The latter has required unique fire management strategies. As the severity of the 2001 fire season developed in late May, Land and Forest Service escalated man-up and aircraft expenditures significantly above normal levels in expection of increased fire load (Figures 1-3). Prior to fire activity in the Protection Zone of Alberta, municipalities in the agricultural areas were experiencing extreme fire behaviour

  • Biden Is Only Leading Dem to Top Trump in Ohio, Quinnipiac University Poll Finds; Former V.P
    Peter A. Brown, Assistant Director (203) 535-6203 Rubenstein Pat Smith (212) 843-8026 FOR RELEASE: JULY 25, 2019 BIDEN IS ONLY LEADING DEM TO TOP TRUMP IN OHIO, QUINNIPIAC UNIVERSITY POLL FINDS; FORMER V.P. HAS BIG LEAD IN DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY Former Vice President Joseph Biden leads President Donald Trump 50 – 42 percent in the critical swing state of Ohio, the only leading Democratic candidate to top the Republican incumbent, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today. The other leading Democratic contenders each are locked in a dead heat with President Trump, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University Poll finds: 46 percent for Trump to Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders with 45 percent; Trump at 46 percent to Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren at 45 percent; 44 – 44 percent between Trump and California Sen. Kamala Harris; 44 – 44 percent between Trump and South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg; 44 percent for Trump to 43 percent for New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker. Women, black voters and independent voters give Biden his lead in the matchup with Trump. Biden leads 53 – 40 percent among women, as men are split with 46 percent for Biden and 45 percent for Trump. White voters are divided, with 48 percent for Trump and 45 percent for Biden. Black voters go Democratic 84 – 8 percent. Independent voters go to Biden 55 – 32 percent. Republicans back Trump 86 – 10 percent as Biden leads 96 – 2 percent among Democrats. “Former Vice President Joseph Biden calls himself a blue-collar guy. With Ohio certainly a blue-collar state, it is no surprise he is the Democrat who runs best against President Donald Trump and is solidly ahead in the Democratic primary in the Buckeye State,” said Peter Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.

  • Michigan Presidential Primary
    Michigan Presidential Primary Facts and Statistics Michigan Department of State Bureau of Elections February 2019 MICHIGAN PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY LEGISLATIVE HISTORY 1912 The legislature enacted Public Act 9 to direct that a presidential preference primary be conducted in the month of April. 1931 The legislature enacted Public Act 200 to repeal the presidential preference primary. 1972 The legislature enacted Public Act 60 to reestablish the presidential primary subject to the following provisions: • Primary would be held on the third Tuesday in May in presidential election years for each political party that received greater than 5% of the total vote cast nationwide in the last presidential election. • The Secretary of State would issue a list of individuals generally advocated by the national news media as potential candidates for president. The law also provided that the state political party chairpersons could provide the Secretary of State with a list of individuals whom they consider to be potential presidential nominees for their political party. The Secretary of State was then required to notify each candidate appearing on the lists who in turn was required to file an affidavit indicating his or her political party preference and willingness to have his or her name appear on the ballot. Individuals whose names did not appear on either the Secretary of State’s or a political party list could qualify as a candidate by filing nominating petitions. The petitions were required to be signed by registered electors equal to at least ½ of 1% of the total vote cast in the previous presidential election for the presidential candidate of the political party of the individual.

The Supreme Court Tramples Gravel By LAWRENCE B. VELvEL* From the standpoint of protecting political and civil free- doms, the cases decided by the Supreme Court during the last few weeks of its 1971 term were a mixed bag at best. It is true that some of the Court's rulings were favorable to those who would protect political freedoms: the cases which struck down governmental wiretapping without a warrant' and which pro- tected the right of SDS to official recognition on campus 2 would be two preeminent examples in this category. But it is equally true that, with the four Nixon justices providing the hard core, in a number of other cases the Court delivered some major blows to important political freedoms. The more prominent cases of this type come tripping quickly from the tongue.
