Graves, 73, of Lake Monticello, according to a press release from the Fluvanna County Sheriff’s Office. The Lake Monticello Police Department (LMPD) on Saturday (Jan. 26) took a report that Graves was missing. His last suspected location was in the area of Lake Monticello’s Tufton Pond, according to the release. Deputies from the Fluvanna County Sheriff’s Office and a K9 unit from the Louisa County Sheriff’s Office assisted LMPD in the search. Nothing was initially located, according to the release. Members of the Lake Monticello Water Rescue Team were called in to search the pond Sunday (Jan. 27). “An asset from the Albemarle County Police Department was also utilized,” stated Capt. David Wells in the press release. Late in the afternoon, Graves’ body was located and removed from Tufton Pond. The sheriff’s office is investigating the death. The body will be sent to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Richmond for a cause and manner of death determination, according to the release. Wells said no foul play is suspected.

The bill also limits the amount of removal costs that can be recovered from ratepayers in any given year, and includes language to minimize transportation impacts of closure activities on nearby communities, promote the training and hiring of local workers, and encourage further recycling and beneficial reuse. Concerns about using an approved, but potentially inadequate, closure method for these ponds called “cap in place” led the General Assembly to impose a moratorium on closure the last two years while alternatives were explored. The recycling report released by Dominion Energy in November 2018 showed that much more of this material than previously thought is valuable for beneficial reuse, such as making bricks or concrete.

State lawmakers kill legislation to protect student journalists Former Fluvanna superintendent sides against the bill BY SAFFEYA AHMED CAPITAL NEWS SERVICE

ia Association of School Superintendents. “There are many instances in the code where they treat college students and post-secondary students different from secondary students.” The legislation would have protected “school-sponsored media,” which includes any material “prepared, substan- tially written, published or broadcast” by student journalists and is distributed or available to the student body. The bill prohibited administrative censorship or disciplinary action unless content: • Is libelous or slanderous material; • Unjustifiably invades privacy; • Violates federal or state law; or • Creates or incites students to create a clear and present danger. If HB 2382 had passed, Virginia would Frank LoMonte, former executive director of the Student Press Law Center and head of the New Voice Initiative, expressed support for have been the 15th state to provide pro- protecting student journalists from administrative censorship.

The Indians were unable to get off a decent three-point shot and the Flucos were the winners. After the game, Davis said he was pleased that his squad settled down and played well after getting behind early. He pointed out that his squad has been com- petitive in most of its games, but has lost a lot of close ones, several on last-second shots. The team was very happy to take away a win in this close one. Edmonds, a freshman, led the scoring with 19. Rittenhouse, a sophomore, had 16, including four three pointers. Whittle, another sophomore, contributed 10, while senior forward Pace had eight. Junior guard Davis, who is only 5 feet 10 inches, pitched in with 11 rebounds. The Fluco season is winding down. They played at Madison County Jan. 28 and hosted Monticello Jan. 29. They will be at Louisa Feb. 1 and their final regular season game will be at home against Western Albemarle Feb. 5.
