Florida Forest Service officials said wildfire activ- ity in November was at a minimum level, and indi- cated they aren’t expecting a recurrence of severe to extreme drought conditions, even though local rainfall levels are below normal. According to statistics from the Suwannee Forestry Center, there were only 15 fires in the district’s six- county area and those fires burned a total of 15 acres. The Suwannee Forestry Center covers wildfires in Baker, Bradford, Columbia, Hamilton, Suwannee and Union counties. In Columbia County there were only three fires report- ed in November that burned approximately five acres. The 2012 Columbia County totals indicate there has been 45 fires which burned 3,336 acres. In the district there has been a total of 235 fires that burned 4,146 acres.

FOR BETTER OR WORSE CLASSIC PEANUTS 4AOPINION OPINION

Tuesday, December 4, 2012 www.lakecityreporter.com 4A OUR OPINION On David Still and the state of our springs

ircumstances surrounding the departure of executive director David Still from the Suwannee River Water Management District last spring remain murkyC at best. First he was quitting, then he changed his mind. At which point he was fired by a sharply divided governing board. To hear Still tell it – as he did last week to the Tampa Bay Times – he was forced out by Gov. Rick Scott, who didn’t want to hear what he had to say about the state of North Central Florida’s rivers, lakes and freshwater springs. Whether that’s true we don’t know. Still also says he opposed the decision Fighting Irish make the grade by the St. Johns River water district to aving spent disadvantageous for the have high graduation grant JEA a permit to draw up to 155 most of my team to bring in those rates because they take undergradu- who will fail in the class- those mythically easy million gallons of water per day from ate years in room. courses like basket weav- the Floridan Aquifer, for the purpose Southeastern “Our admissions staff ing and physical educa- HConference towns, I have looks at SATs and prepa- tion? of cooling turbines at its power plant.
