  • With Increasing Economic Pressures and Public Health Concerns, and Fueled by the Crohurst Report, the Virginia Assembly Created the Hampton Roads Sewage Disposal Commission
    Visionary citizens of the region, on November 5, 1940, passed the referendum that established the Hampton Roads Sanitation District, a political subdivision of the Commonwealth of Virginia. As it prepares to commemorate the 75th anniversary of its creation, HRSD is paying tribute to those with the courage to vote to eliminate sewage pollution in the tidal waters of the Chesapeake Bay by publishing the story of their legacy. We hope that by understanding HRSD’s contributions to the health of area waterways and the economy of Coastal Virginia, those we serve will appreciate their role in “Living the Legacy.” F e b r u a r y 2 015 Contents: 3 Oysters Provide the Clue The First Referendum (Coming soon) The Second Referendum (Coming soon) The 1940s (To be posted the week of March 29) The 1950s (To be posted the week of May 24) The 1960s (To be posted the week of June 21) The 1970s (To be posted the week of July 19) The 1980s (To be posted the week of August 16) The 1990s (To be posted the week of September 13) The 2000s (To be posted the week of October 11) The 2010s (To be posted the week of November 5) G r a p h i c D e s i G n : b a r t M o r r i s OyProvidesters the Clue Water is a way of life in Hampton Roads; it is the one thing that both unifies and divides us as a region.

THESIS Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Colorado State University-Pueblo in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS IN HISTORY Department of History COLORADO STATE UNIVERSITY-PUEBLO April 2012 Acknowledgements It is my honor to be adding to the historiography of Colorado and the Chicano Movement by completing the process of researching and writing Reclaiming Aztlan: Southern Colorado and Chicano Activism of the 1970s. Even though I use several topics in this thesis which I feel are vital to describe the history of southern Colorado during the 1970s this is in no way an entire history. Rather, I view my work as an opening salvo for history research to be done by future students and historians using the Ethnic Heritage & Diversity Collection housed in the archives at Colorado State University-Pueblo. I feel that a wealth of information exists pertaining to the Chicano Student Movement. The Juan Federico “Freddie Freak” Miguel Arguello Trujillo Chicano Movement Collection offers an excellent array of material for a historian to address the role of college students during the Chicano Movement in both Colorado and the region.
