Ski Industry Leases Of
Vermont State Auditor Douglas R. Hoffer Report to the Vermont Legislature and the Agency of Natural Resources State Land Leases Boost Ski Industry, but Are Dated and Inconsistent 1/20/2015 • Office of the Vermont State Auditor • Non-Audit Report 15-01 Mission Statement The mission of the Vermont State Auditor’s Office is to hold government accountable. This means ensuring taxpayer funds are used effectively and efficiently, and that we foster the prevention of waste, fraud, and abuse. Principal Investigator Andrew C. Stein Non-Audit Inquiry This is a non-audit report. A non-audit report is a tool used to inform citizens and management of issues that may need attention. It is not an audit and is not conducted under generally accepted government auditing standards. A non-audit report has a substantially smaller scope of work than an audit. Therefore, its conclusions are more limited, and it does not contain recommendations. Instead, the report includes information and possible risk-mitigation strategies relevant to the entity that is the object of the inquiry. DOUGLAS R. HOFFER STATE AUDITOR STATE OF VERMONT OFFICE OF THE STATE AUDITOR January 20, 2015 The Honorable Shap Smith Speaker of the House of Representatives The Honorable John Campbell President Pro Tempore of the Senate The Honorable Peter Shumlin Governor Deb Markowitz Secretary of Natural Resources Dear Colleagues, More than 70 years ago, the State decided to catalyze a new industry by leasing public land to companies willing to invest in the infrastructure necessary for downhill skiing. By most measures, this partnership has been successful, and our iconic mountains are now home to world- famous ski areas. -

Physical Activity in Mentoring
Getting Active and Making a Difference Physical Activity in Mentoring Table of Contents August 2015 1. Mission 2. Getting Active (a framework for mentors) 3. The Problem The Solution 4. For Program Coordinators 5. Community-Based Programs 6. School-Based Programs 7. Appendix A 8. Appendix B 9. Appendix C 1 Mission Mobius and the Vermont Department of Health are partnering in an effort to provide resources and guidance for mentoring organizations and mentors across the state to incorporate some form of physical activity into their programs. This guidebook aims to help mentors and coordinators understand the importance of getting mentees active and aid them in finding ways to do so. While this mission is driven by the Healthy Vermonters 2020 goals that aim to reduce the number of obese youth to 8% by 2020, the ultimate purpose of this guidebook coincides with the inherent mission of mentoring, to enhance the lives of youth and provide them with a foundation for success. Getting Active 2 Ability Mentors ought to consider their own comfort level and the background of their mentee How will different activities impact their self-esteem and willingness to continue pursuing these experiences? Positivity To create a positive environment, the mentor must be comfortable and confident with the chosen activity Collaboration Mentors and mentees should work together to determine what types of activities are appropriate for their age, skill level, and interests You’d Be Surprised! When people hear the words “physical activity” they often think of organized sports or exercise. However, every day we are being physically active without consciously trying to be. -
Annual Report on Public Water System Violations Vermont Water Supply Division
Annual Report on Public Water System Violations Vermont Water Supply Division 103 South Main St. Waterbury, VT 05671-0403 (802) 241-3400 or 1-800-823-6500 in Vermont January 1, 2006 - December 31, 2006 July 1, 2007 INTRODUCTION Vermont’s Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) is authorized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to administer the Public Water Supply System program in the state. DEC’s Water Supply Division implements the program. The division’s primary goal is to ensure that citizens and visitors of the Green Mountain State have drinking water that is safe for human consumption. To maintain the authority to administer the program (also called primacy), the state has to implement and enforce rules that are at least as stringent as the federal drinking water regulations. To comply with federal regulations, DEC promulgated the State’s Water Supply Rule (Chapter 21 of the Environmental Protection Rules) on September 24, 1992. The rule was revised in 1996, 1999, 2002 and again in 2005 to incorporate the 1996 amendments to the federal Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA). The 1996 amendments strengthened many aspects of the SDWA, including government and water system accountability, and public awareness and involvement. The new “Right-to-know” provisions will give citizens the information they need to make their own health decisions, allow increased participation in drinking water decision-making, and promote accountability at the water system, state, and federal levels. One of the “Right-to-know” provisions requires states with primacy to prepare an annual Public Water System Compliance Report. The report must include the name and Water System Identification (WSID) number of each public water system that violated SDWA regulations during the year. -

Appendix a Places to Visit and Natural Communities to See There
Appendix A Places to Visit and Natural Communities to See There his list of places to visit is arranged by biophysical region. Within biophysical regions, the places are listed more or less north-to-south and by county. This list T includes all the places to visit that are mentioned in the natural community profiles, plus several more to round out an exploration of each biophysical region. The list of natural communities at each site is not exhaustive; only the communities that are especially well-expressed at that site are listed. Most of the natural communities listed are easily accessible at the site, though only rarely will they be indicated on trail maps or brochures. You, the naturalist, will need to do the sleuthing to find out where they are. Use topographic maps and aerial photographs if you can get them. In a few cases you will need to do some serious bushwhacking to find the communities listed. Bring your map and compass, and enjoy!
