    R-361 Page 1 of 1 2016 No. R-361. House concurrent resolution commemorating the 70th anniversary of the Vermont Air National Guard. (H.C.R.276) Offered by: All Members of the House Offered by: All Members of the Senate Whereas, as long ago as World War I, the Vermont National Guard included aviation units, and this remained true through World War II, and Whereas, however, as World War II was concluding, the prospect of a National Guard aviation presence at the Burlington Airport was uncertain, and Whereas, on May 28, 1946, the Burlington Board of Alderman voted to deed to the State of Vermont the needed land for the construction of two hangars and the rights of way to use the runways, and Whereas, on July 1, 1946, the U.S. Army Air Force announced the establishment of the Vermont Air National Guard (VTANG), and Whereas, the VTANG’s first commanding officer was Lt. Colonel William Bowden, and the original contingent of veteran World War II pilots numbered 25, and Whereas, on August 14, 1946, the U.S. Army Air Force designated the VTANG as the 134th Fighter Squadron, and the VTANG’s dual mission included assisting in State disasters and emergencies and supporting federal aviation defense efforts, and Whereas, the U.S. Army Air Force sent AT-6 and L-5 trainers, and a C-47 “Gooney bird” transport plane, but a fleet of far superior Thunderbolt aircraft arrived soon thereafter as replacements for the original airplanes, and Whereas, in 1948, the Burlington electorate approved a $150,000.00 bond as the city’s contribution towards airport improvements,

  • San Luis Obispo County
    Steelhead/rainbow trout resources of San Luis Obispo County San Carpoforo (San Carpojo) San Carpoforo Creek (San Carpojo Creek) consists of more than ten stream miles. It flows southwest, entering the Pacific Ocean at Ragged Point. Staff from DFG surveyed San Carpoforo Creek in 1961 and observed O. mykiss, with highest population density in the lower one mile of the creek. The survey report relays information from local residents and DFG staff including an estimate of “…155 adult steelhead in three holes between the mouth of the stream and the mine” in the late 1950s (DFG 1961a). The creek was deemed, “…a good steelhead nursery and spawning area” (DFG 1961a). In a 1966 letter DFG states, “San Carpojo and Arroyo de la Cruz Creeks are the best steelhead waters in San Luis Obispo County” (DFG 1966a). A 1973 draft report on the effects of potential water developments included estimates of steelhead run size in several San Luis Obispo County creeks. The estimated adult run in San Carpoforo Creek was 500 individuals (Macias 1973). Staff from DFG surveyed San Carpoforo Creek in 1995 and observed “numerous” young of the year, age 1+ and age 2+ steelhead (DFG 1995a). The survey report indicates that the surveyed stream reach usually becomes intermittent by the end of summer. In 1999, USFS staff surveyed San Carpoforo Creek and observed “lots of trout” including fry and adults (USFS 1999a). Staff from NMFS performed systematic surveys of south coast streams in 2002-2003 to determine steelhead presence/absence. The survey report form for San Carpoforo Creek indicates multiple O.
