Citizens learn they're in tourism business


BY CAROLYN RISNER
MANAGING EDITOR
The next time a stranger
approaches you and asks,
"What is there to do in Levy
County?", be careful how you
respond because you, too, are
in the tourism business.
That was the eye-opener
for about 30 people who at-
tended a joint session of the
Levy County Board of County
Commissioners and its Tour-
ist Development Council.
Carol McQueen, the TDC
director, told the group that
represented chambers of
commerce, the accommoda-
tion industry and the curi-



U.S. FWS

needs you

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service is asking hunters, an-
glers and other wildlife en-
thusiasts for their participa-
tion, beginning late March, in
the llth National Survey of
Fishing, Hunting and Wild-
life-Associated Recreation.
"We appreciate the anglers,
hunters, birdwatchers and
others throughout the United
States who voluntarily partic-
ipate in this survey," said Ser-
vice Director H. Dale Hall.
"Results from this survey
help wildlife managers quan-
tify ho\\ much Americans
value in both participation
and expenditures -- our wild-
life resources."
The survey is under-
taken every five years and
is funded by the multistate
conservation grant program
authorized by the Wildlife
and Sport Fish Restoration
Programs Improvement Act
of 2001. It provides the only
comprehensive statistical data
available on participation and
expenditures for hunting,
fishing and wildlife-watching
in all 50 states. The survey is
considered a critical resource
for Federal and state wildlife
agencies, journalists, outdoor
and tourist industries, local
governments, planners, con-
servation groups and others
with an interest in wildlife
and outdoor recreation.
Information for the survey
is collected by the Census
Bureau, primarily through
telephone interviews to be

ous, that everyone who lives
in Levy County has a stake
in its future--and the tourism
industry.
McQueen presented a short
video that demonstrated how
every person indirectly af-
fects the millions of people
who come into Florida annu-
ally.
A prime example is the
shrimper who sells his fish
to a wholesaler, who in turn
sells it to retailer, who in turn
sells it to a restaurant, who in
turn sells it to a hungry tour-
ist.
Everyone from tire sales-
men to flower shop owners


are in-
cluded
in being
a part of
the tour-
ism mar-
ket.
Mc -
Queen
then ex-
plained MORASKI
the tour-
ism tax.that is in place in the
county, how it is assessed and
what is done with the money.
Anyone who rents rooms
or lodging space (six months
or less) is required to collect
the tax and remit it to the


is


state which in turns sends it
back to the county. ,
In 2004, Levy County col-
lected about $125,000 of the
tax that is now funding proj-
ects by the TDC, according
to Jayne Moraski, Director of
Economic Development for
NCFRPC and director of the
Original Florida Tourism Task
Force, which encompasses 16
counties in the north central
region of the state.
How the money is spent is
specific, Moraski said, and
the bulk of it goes to advertis-
ing and promotion, funding
tourists' bureaus, beach pres-
ervation, zoos, fishing piers,


nature centers and stadiums,
museums and conventions.
Moraski said a marketing
plan is crucial to tourism de-
velopment and encouraged
an inventory of tourist sites
as a key point in the plan.
"You can't market what
you don't know you have,"
McQueen said,
The main objective in all
tourist trade, Moraski said, is
to encourage overnight visi-
tors. By doing so, the "heads
on beds" campaign will bring
in more tax that will fund
more tourism promotion.

Citizen of the Year


- -. a. -.. "-." -


STEWART WASSON believes in personal one-on-one attention whether it's
at work, in church or on the baseball field.


Wasson's also an active
member of the local Rotary
Club, where he has served as
president.
Debbie Sheppard, Was-
son's co-worker at Chief-
land's Capital City Bank for
the past 20 years, said his
work ethic is noteworthy.
"He will take as much time
as needed with each person
even if it means staying late
or coming in on weekends,"
she said. "He never quits
early."
She also said Wasson leads
by example in the commu-
nity.
"He's a good Christian


person and those ethics are
evident in his life 24/7," she
said. Those morals have been
tested.
Sunday's message at the
Baptist Church was titled
'Stress Free,Living.' The Re;.,
Brian Dembowczyk said that
"when faced with stress, give
it over to God."
The Rev. Bob Block said
Wasson exemplifies this the-
ology.
About a year ago, Was-
son's wife, Dina, died, leav-
ing him with his 14-year-old
son,Joshua. .
"The peace he had in deal-
ing with such a great loss


was compelling," Block
said. "He just turned it right
over to God and never lost
faith."
Whether it was Wasson's
humility, faith, loyalty or
friendship, or a combina-
tion of them all, each person
interviewed felt Wasson de-
served the award. The only
naysayer was Wasson him-
self.
"When they called my
name, I thought 'Are you
serious?'" he said. "This
can't be right. This honor
doesn't belong to me, it
belongs to the elders of the
community who shape it."


BY JEFF SIRMONS
STAFF WRITER
Most people close to
Stewart Wasson couldn't
tell you exactly why he
earned Chiefland's Citizen
of the Year Award. Most of
them just shrug their shoul-
ders and say "Well, there are
so many reasons, I couldn't
pick just one."
Wasson, 42, said he
wasn't worthy of the award.
He said it belonged solely to
those who reared him.
"Wasson's a great, humble
guy," said Osborn Barker,
who's been one of Wasson's
best friends since childhood.
"He's the guy you call up
when you want to get some-
thing done. Then, he won't
take any credit for it."
Wasson's philosophy of
life is to serve everyone and
never give up on anybody.
"In baseball, there's al-
ways that boy who just
doesn't fit in and who tries
to avoid learning the game,"
said Wasson, a baseball
coach at his alma mater,
Chiefland High School. "I
pull him aside and person-
ally teach him the game. Of-
ten, it's that person who be-
comes the star of the team."
Wasson's positive out-
look on life has led him to
be active in the community
he was reared in. Along with
coaching, he's a deacon,
youth Bible study leader and
choir member at Chiefland's
First Baptist Church.
"He's not the best musi-
cian but he loves to sing to
God," Barker said.


BOCC will get tough on adult entertainment


BY CAROLYN RISNER
MANAGING EDITOR
No one is currently ap-
plying to begin adult enter-
tainment facilities (i.e. nude
dancing) in Levy County, and
the county commissioners
hope it stays that way.
Taking proactive measures
seems to be the best, way to
regulate such clubs and Tues-
day, the BOCC agreed to hire
an attorney specializing in
ordinances to restrict adult
entertainment.
In a unanimous decision,
the BOCC voted to hire Scott
D. Bergthold for $8,500 to

conduct studies and develop
an ordinance related to sexu-
ally oriented businesses.
Bergthold's website touts
that his firm is the only one in
the United States that focuses
exclusively on the drafting
and defense of municipal
adult business regulations.
County Attorney Anne
Brown said she had re-
searched Bergthold and while
there may have been less ex-
pensive retainers, he is the
leader in his field and she had
every confidence in his abili-
ties.
His research, which will

be included in the ordinance
presentation, will show how
crime increases and property
values decrease when adult
entertainment establishments
are present.
Brown also added that
Bergthold's firm will make
this a priority and no time
will be wasted before the
commissioners have some-
thing in hand to evaluate.
The commissioners also
recognized and honored C.W.
"Bubba" Castell for his long-
time service and dedication to
Levy County and its people.
Castell, a Cedar Key na-


tive, begari working with
Sheriff Pat Hartley and over-
time held positions including
chief deputy, EMS director
and Levy County jail admih-
istrator.
Today, Castell is the chief
of police on Cedar Key.
Several people in the law
enforcement arena were on
hand Tuesday to reap acco-
lades on Castell.
Many of them cited his
paternal wisdom and law ex-
pertise that encouraged and
inspired them to be the peo-
ple they are today, including

Everyone, including Com-

who read a proclamation in
Castell's honor, said he was
the man who always had a
smile on his face. (See page

In other business, the

ing approving or hearing

Council (Affordable Solu-
tions).

THE FIREFIGHTERS from South Levy Volunteer Fire and Rescue get a lesson
on drafting water Sunday in their newly acquired 2006 Peterbilt tanker truck.


New tanker puts South Levy


firefighters in the driver's seat


South Levy volunteer fire-
fighters will be riding in style
thanks to the new 3,500 gal-
lon tanker fire truck that was
delivered to the Fire and Res-
cue squad Sunday morning.
The 2006 truck is the re-
sult of a grant written by fire
fighters Mary Ann Cross-
man and Roger Tindol.
The $194,806.00 grant was
matched by a 5 percent match
by the South Levy Depart-
ment. The truck was driven
from Kansas City where it
was made by Garsite Com-
pany and manufactured for
Engine and Accessories, the
parent company in Miami.
Starting this summer produc-
tion will be moved to Miami.
The truck, when delivered,
had 60 hours on it.
The 2006 Peterbilt tanker
has a 300 HP Cummins die-
sel engine, Allison auto trans-
is'si1n,'i3.500 gallon tanker,
,1000 GPM (gallons per
minute) fire pump and a 430
CFM (cubic feet per minute)
vacuum pump. The truck can
be filled from a static water
source (pond, lake or pool) in


1 minute 45 seconds through
one hose and.in 1 minute 10
seconds with two hoses. The
truck can take draft (or suck
water) 30 feet vertically from
a bridge with a 6-inch intake
and a -inch column of wa-
ter.
The 3,500 gallon tank is
made of marine grade alu-
minum and can be sanitized
with household bleach to
transport drinkable water
during disasters.
The truck can be driven
to where a water supply is
available and potable, wa-
ter brought back for com-
sumption. The truck can be
utilized for fire fighting at a
scene, transporting water for
other trucks and also in haz-
ardous materials washdown
situations.
A video screen mounted
on the dash of the truck has
twao video cameras. on the
back and side of the truck
making it possible for the
one person driver to stay in
the driver's seat and monitor
and perform the operations
from inside the cab.


The truck has a 3,500 gal-
lon drop tank that looks like a
portable swimming pool that
one man can drop and set up,
to be filled with the 3,500
gallons of water at a scene to
be used by the trucks while
the truck itself returns to a
water source to refill.
This operation will make
fire fighting in South Levy
County a state of the art op-
eration. This truck will great-
ly enhance the fire services
of this active department that
consists of approximately 25
firefighters, auxilliary mem-
bers and an explorer group.
Roger Crossman, who will
celebrate 25 years as a fire
chief in May, serves as chief
of the South Levy Depart-
ment and Joey Sellner serves
as assistant chief.
Land for a new department
firehouse has been paid for,
and a new sign erected on6
Hwy 40E, Inglis this week
seeking donations for the
building for which plans
have been drawn. This de-
partment mutually responds
to all South Levy fires.


Donations taken on Watermelon Quilt


BY WINNELLE HORNE
CORRESPONDENT
Log Cabin Quilters met
Thursday, March 16, at the
Levy County Quilt Museum.
Two quilts were put together
and one goes back to New
York.. We hope when they
come back in the fall it will
be quilted. Three members
from the Joyful Heart Quil-
ters came to pick up their
quilt and crafts we put in the
fair for them. We saw blue,


red and white ribbons on
them and we are very proud
of our sister club.
Mike Brannon came up
from camp Carruth to have
lunch and pick up a quilt that
we donated to them to hang.
We will be going down March
25 to visit. It is always a fun
day and we look forward to
seeing our many friends.
Our Watermelon Quilt is
almost finished and we are
taking donations on it. It will


be given away at the Festival
in June.
Lunch was so good. We had
German meatballs, chicken
potpie, cheese and macaroni,
collards, spaghetti, biscuits,
chili, potato salad, coconut
pie, orange cake and so much
more. We had 24 members
and seven visitors present.

Winnelle Horne is the di-
rector of the Levy County
Quilt Museum.

percent of smokers say they want to quit.
The Levy County Health Department is offering help for
those who are ready to quit tobacco for good using proven
techniques.
The cost of class materials is $15, which will be refunded to
participants who quit tobacco by the end of the course.
Nicotine Replacement patches will be available free of
charge to registered participants with physician approval.
The class will begin with an orientation on April 3 -5:30-
7 p.m. at St. John The Evangelist Catholic Church Hall on
Highway 27 ALT and will continue for an additional six
weeks for participants who choose to continue.

health: start experiencing health benefits as early as 20 min-
utes after quitting tobacco. Your family: second-hand smoke
is harmful to children, adults, and pets, even leading to cancer
and other diseases. Save money: a smoker who smokes one *
pack a day would save at least $730 each year by quitting.

OPINION

YOUR VIEW


Bold action is needed

To the editor:
As a breast cancer survivor, I was thankful to hear that our
elected officials are trying to help defeat this deadly disease.
Proposed legislation would allocate $9 million to the
Bankhead-Coley Cancer Research Program through the
Florida Department of Health to help advance Florida's fight
against cancer through research and treatment. This means
there would be increased access to cutting-edge cancer care
for patients like me throughout our state.
I will never forget the, fear that swept over my family and
me when I was first told I had cancer. I hope this new pro-
posed funding will provide many cancer patients with hope
for tomorrow through the development of new and success-
ful treatments.
We can't afford to wait any longer to invest in cancer
research. We all know someone who has been touched by
cancer, and many of us are living that reality. It is time for
bold action to help change that. I believe this legislation is
the first step toward that journey in Florida.

'He looks so

Faint of heart, stop
reading here.
It would
behoove you to
move along to Miss Honey,
Jeff Sirmons or go along to
another page. Check out who
got arrested last week. Just
stop here.
This rambling is some-
thing I not only think out
loud about, I think about it
silently, too.
I think about it morn-
ing, noon, night, at work, at
home, in church, at dinner.
I suppose you might say, I
even obsess about it.
It's death. And ever since
I was a wee youngun, I have
been fascinated by death and
What it really means to leave
the casing we call the body.
I grew up around death
because'my father was also
somewhat obsessed by it.
You know those cards they
,give you at the funeral home
that has the pertinent details
about the decedent? I'm not
sure when they started that
practice, but when my father
died in 1993 he had literally
thousands stuffed in shoe-
boxes. Those cards symbol-
ized all the'visitations or
funerals he had attended in
his 62 years.
In Appalachia, before the
advent of the funeral home
as we know it, local women
would prepare the bodies for
burial since embalming was
an alien idea. I've heard my
grandmother talk many times
of the people she helped
bathe and dress to go into the
coffin for a final look-see.
For a brief period between
my junior and senior years of
high school, I apprenticed in
the local funeral home.
While I wasn't allowed in
the embalming room when a
body was in-house, I did ev-
erything else: secretarial du-
ties, coffee.making, writing
obituaries (still the first thing
I read in any newspaper) and
helping families as needed.
Once, as I told Buddy Leap-
trot several months ago, I

THINKING OUT
LOUD



Carolyn Risner

Carolyn Risner


helped the funeral director
reposition a body that had
been prepared in Ohio.
For some reason, they
turned the old man on his
side, like he really was sleep-
ing. Now Ohioans may like
that, but Kentucky folks
want to look you straight in
the eye when they pass by
the cakt.Ap she and I set
out to turn him over. Trust
me, it wasn't an'easy tsk.
But when the family came
that afternoon for the private
visitation, they were pleased
as they looked down and
marveled, "Oh, doesn't he
look so natural? Just like
he's sleeping."
And that set my train of
thought into motion for the
next 30 years.
Last week it hit full force
again after I watched a
documentary called Dirty
Work. It detailed the jobs of
three men--jobs that most
people would be a little wary
of doing on a daily basis: a
septic tank cleaner, a bull se-
men collector and an Atlanta
embalmer.
Now it would be unfair to
categorize all funeral direc-
tors/embalmers into the same
group with the guy from
Atlanta, but rest assured, I
will not let any of my family
and friends visit any of the
parlors he freelances in.
This man said he, too, was
fascinated with death and he
casts aside all emotion when-
ever he's working. He calls
himself an artist because he
feels it's his job to make the
deceased look as natural as
they did in life.
As the cameraman fol-


lowed
him
through
the em-
balming
process,
I kept
thinking,
Doesn't
matter if I


am dead.
Ain't no-
body gonna toss me around
like that. Ain't nobody gonna
stuff my dress, that no longer
fits my shriveled body, with
plastic grocery bags just so it
will hang right. Ain't nobody
gonna put Deep Beige #6 on
these cheeks because I have
never been that tanned in
my life. N0o, irlb, 't

My best friend, Denise,,
has an alternative to con-.
ventional remains' disposal:
she wants to be laid in her
bathtub in the attic of her
100-year-old house where
she can "husk" out--mummy
style.
She's serious.
As for me, well, an 80-
year-old friend of mine once
told me that the older she
got, the more she wanted
to live. I was 29 then and
thought it was the most ab-
surd thing I had ever heard.
Decades later, I know
what she meant.
But since we are all born.
to die, I really don't want the
$7,500 funeral (and that's if
I go anytime soon--hopefully
I'll live 40 years more and
by then it will cost $18,900).
And that's the most rele-
vant thing the Atlanta funeral
director said.
We spend our lives
preparing for death. We
buy insurance policies; we
prepay funerals and we think
nothing about spending thou-
sands of dollars for. caskets
and steel vaults. And yet,
we're the same people who
wear clothes handmade from

Following

your values

On Saturday night,
I saw a movie of
disobedience and
revolution, and on Sunday
morning, at the Chiefland
First Baptist Church, I heard
a sermon about how there is
peace in obedience.
My poor mind wanted to'
get away, but then I thought
that minds
can't fly on
Southwest
Airlines
alone.
Therefore,
it's best for
my mind
to stay here
in my head
and ponder :
the above
paradox. JEFF
I was SERMONS
:confused Columnist
because
both the
movie and
the sermon had a good point..
Vfor Vendetta, the.

people shouldn't be afraid
of their governments, but
that governments should
be afraid of the people. To
emphasize this point, V,
the protagonist, blew up
the parliament, a building
that ironically symbolized a
totalitarian British state.
V, who simply would
not identify himself in any
other way, rebelled against
a government that was
much like Hitler's Nazi
government. If America
were tPo llsitsiBtloof Rights
and its basic freedoms, I; a
journalist; would naturally be
one of the first to disobey.
But on the other side, as
the sermon went, there is
peace in obedience. The
example Pastor Brian gave
was about speeding. When
you speed and you see a cop
clocking your speed, you
slow down and immediately
become religious by praying
that the cop doesn't come
after you.
But, if you don't speed,
you breeze right by the
cop, perhaps hoping that he
catches that punk college kid
who's going 80 on Highway
27.
A fearless life is one led
without breaking any rules
or laws because if you
follow every order, you have
nothing to fear.
The sermon was, of
course, applied to God-
obey God's commands
and you'll live a fearless,
stress-free life. But does
this philosophy apply to
the world-obey all rules
created by humans?
A religious person should
naturally say to disobey rules
only that contradict God's
word.

Miss Honey says.


ood morning! 7
a.m., March 20,
2006. Isn't it great
to wake up and find we're
still in the land of the living?
And to know God is on our
side? We may leave Him,
but He will not leave us or
forsake us. He is very near
and dear to me and supplies
my every need. Oh, where
would I be without Jesus and
all my friends, young and
old?
Did ydu know we are only
as old as we act and feel?
Sometimes we feel we're
sweet 16 and other days we
feel like a very old 60. Yeah,
you, too, Donald.
God has been very good


to me and I thank God each
day for my
health, my
mind and
the love
I feel for
family and
friends.
Bits and
Pieces
1. Aim
high, but MISS HONEY
stay on the
level.
2. Don't marry for money,
you can borrow it much
cheaper
3. The sign on the door of
opportunity says, "push."
4. Be patient when people
growl at you, they may be


living with a bear!
5. Wise men learn more
from fools than fools do
from wise men.
6. Asking saves a lot of
guesswork.
7. He who itches for
success must be willing to
scratch for it.
8. If at first you don't
succeed, well so much for
trying.
9. If you must kill time,
work it to death.
10. A tongue three inches
log can kill a man six feet
tall.

products of sour grapes.

Selecting the right tree is important


Selection of trees for planting in a home landscape depends
on the desired effect and the purpose the trees will satisfy
in the landscape, according to Peter Gerstenberger, senior
advisor for safety, standards & compliance with the Tree Care
Industry Association.
Will they attract birds to the area? Shade a patio? Screen an
unsightly view? Enhance the view of the home? Identify an
entrance or exit?
"Trees should provide contrast and relief from surrounding
buildings and create seasonal interest in areas near the home,"
explains Gerstenberger.

TCIA advises homeowners to consider the following
factors when selecting a tree:
hardiness (ability of the plant to survive extremes of
winter cold and summer heat)
mature height and spread;
growth rate;
cleanliness;
type of root system;
moisture and fertilizer requirements;
space available;
maintenance requirements;
availability;
ornamental effects, such as branching habit, texture and
color of bark, flower, fruit and foliage; and whether the tree is
evergreen or deciduous.

A professional tree care company can help you determine
which tree species both performs well in your local area and
is suited to your desired planting site.
Arborists often do a close analysis of the specific planting site
to determine the susceptibility or resistance to environmental
conditions such as: disease and insect problems that may
limit your selections, the prior use of the planting site, soil
conditions, such as poor drainage, and high or low pH, the
presence or absence of channelized winds, the location of
utilities both above and below ground because they are site
conditions that dictate plant choice and location, and the
relationship of the plant to roads, walkways and security
lighting.
Is there enough space to plant a tree?
The space available at the specific site and mature tree


size are important considerations and addressing these limits
will go a long way toward reducing maintenance costs. Do
not plant trees that will grow 25 feet or taller under or near
overhead power lines.
Do not forget the underground utilities. Out of sight does
not mean that they would not have to be serviced at some
point. Permanent plantings such as trees should be spaced to
allow utility service. Ground level utility structures such as
transformers and individual service connections require space
to be serviced. A minimum of 10 feet clearance after the tree
has grown to maturity will help avoid any possible electrical
hazards.

Where to plant
Community ordinances may restrict planting of trees
near power lines, parking strips, street lights, sewers, traffic
control signs and signals, sidewalks and property lines.
Municipalities may require planting permits for trees planted
on city property. City codes often require that trees on city
property be maintained by the city, so citizens planting an
improper selection can cause problems for themselves and
the municipality.

What can you do?
A professional arborist can assess your landscape and work
with you to determine the best trees to plant. Homeowners
should contact the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA), I
a 68-year old public and professional resource on trees and
arboriculture.

It has more than 2,000 member companies who recognize
stringent safety and performance standards and are required
to carry liability insurance. TCIA has the nation's only
Accreditation program that helps consumers find tree care
companies that have been inspected and accredited based
on: adherence to industry standards for quality and safety;
maintenance of trained, professional staff; and dedicatioii to
ethics and quality in business practices.
An easy way to find a tree care service provider in your area
is to use the "Locate Your Local TCIA Member Companies"
program. You can use this service by calling 1-800-733-2622
or by doing a ZIP Code search on the TCIA Web site, www.
treecareindustry.org.

FWF names Levy's

Long a 'Champion'


BY CAROLYN RISNER
MANAGING EDITOR
Annette Long says she
hasn't always been as pas-
sionate about the environ-
ment as she is today.
In fact, it was only after
moving to Florida that it hit
her that the environment we
all live in and share is fragile-
-very fragile.
And it's not only the
snakes, manatees. and bugs
that are affected; it's people,
too, Long said.
This month, Long's pas-
sion for environmental pro-
tection, especially water, was
rewarded when the Florida
Wildlife Federation named
her one of its eight Florida
Springs Champions for 2005.
The Federation presented
Long with a $3,000 check
for her efforts in initiating,
a grassroots advocacy cam-
paign to protect Manatee
Springs and other springs in
the Suwannee River Basin.
Long admits she's obsessed
with her environmental con-
cerns and her datebook vali-
dates it. Filled with meeting
after meeting, day after day,
Long says the FWF check
will help offset the gasoline
she burs traveling among
the area's counties.
"We're part of the environ-
ment," she said, "and we have
to be concerned--especially
when water is involved."
In fact, people may not
know her name but when
they see her at the various en-
vironmental and government
functions, around the region
they put the moniker Water
Lady on her.
"Americans take their wa-
ter for granted," she said,
rattling off the number of
gallons'an average American
uses daily compared to what


an African who lives in the
desert may use.
As a member of the Sierra
Club and Save Our Suwan-
nee, and a half dozen other
organizations, Long isn't
simply a member--she's an
active, working member.
"I don't have children,"she
said, "so I have the time. The
reason I do this is for niece
and nephew.
"I want the world to be
better," she said. "It makes
me sad when we don't have
something we did before."
Long had no idea she had
been nominated for the FWF
award until the call came with
the news.'
Later she discovered that
several people she worked
with in her assorted clubs
recognized her dedication
and each one, individually,
nominated her.
She's honored, but hum-
bled and not yet ready to rest
on her laurels.
With a tank of gas, a pad
and pen, she's off to champi-
on her cause and if necessary,
she'll muddy the water to let
her voice be heard.
Someone has to do it, she
reasons, and besides, her
niece and nephew are de-
pending on her.


Festival needs committee members
Plans are forming for the 5th Annual Gospel Music and
Arts Festival, to be held on Saturday, Aug. 5, in Williston.
If you would like to serve on the inter-denominational
committee for the event, please contact Mimi Johnson at
(352) 528-2170.
We welcome members from the community and surround-
ing communities.

s National Library Week
Amnesty Day declared for overdue books


It's National Library Week, a time to cel-
ebrate the contributions of libraries, librar-
ians and library workers to their schools,
campuses and communities.
"National Library Week is the perfect
time to come in and see how we can help
you 'change your world," says Bonnie
Tollefson, Library Director.
"Whether you're looking to make a
small change in your life or a big change
in the world, the Bronson Public Library
has the books and magazines, databases
and free Internet access that can help you
get it done."
As part of this annual event, the Library
Advisory Board will host the Annual Vol-
unteer Appreciation Luncheon on April 4
in Cedar Key, and all library branches will
have an Amnesty Day for Overdue Books
returned on Thursday, April 6.
National Library Week 2006 marks the


sixth year of The Campaign for America's
Libraries, a multi-year public education
campaign, sponsored by the American Li-
brary Association and libraries .across the
country, to speak loudly and clearly about
the value of libraries and librarians in the
21st century. More than 20,000 libraries
in all 50 states are being reached by @
your library, The Campaign for Amer-
ica's Libraries.
"Libraries have always been places of
opportunity and one of the best values
in the community. The librarians and li-
brary staff at Bronson Public Library are
there to help you find what you're looking
for so you can achieve your goals," adds
Tollefson.
For more information about National
Library Week, visit the Bronson Public
Library.


Sheriff welcomes Sabagg home


BY JOHNNY SMITH
LEVY COUNTY SHERIFF
Hi, everyone and welcome
to this week's Sheriff's Cor-
ner. We have great news this
week. Investigator Joe Sabbag
has come home from military
service in Iraq and rejoined
our agency, Joe returned to
our Criminal Investigation
Division as an Investigator.
This was the same position
he held before being sent to
Iraq. We're very happy he's
back safe and sound.
The remainder of this
weeks corer and next weeks
will be devoted to the topic
of "gangs'?. This topic seems
to be more and more talked
about with more and more
questions being directed to
some of us here at the sher-
iff's office.
So, first, as an introduction,
lets look at a somewhat for-
mal definition of what a gang
is. Gangs can generally be
identified by their formal or-
ganizational structure; identi-
fiable leadership; territorial-


ity; recurrent interaction; and
most consistently involve-
ment in serious, criminal and/
or violent behavior.
Gangs are different from
groups in several ways. First
is a gang's exclusivity. Mem-
bers cut themselves off from
non-members. Criminal and
antisocial behavior is seen.
Also, violent rivalries with
other gangs exist or develop.
And Loyalty that overrides
ethics and common sense
is experienced. The gang
comes first.
Another question we hear
has to do with how many
gangs are there nationally?
How many people are re-
ally involved in gangs? .I've
heard numbers of 23,000 dif-
ferent gangs with 665,000
members existing here in the
United States. I heard these
numbers a couple of years
ago, so I'm sure the numbers
are bigger now.
Some of the gangs that
have been around a while and
have national membership in-


cludes the Latin Kings, Skin
Heads, Folk Nations, Bloods,
Crips, AryanNations and oth-
ers. Next week I'll talk more
about gangs and their con-
nection to this county. Have
a great week. Take Care.

EPA ordered to issue pulp mill permit


For every $1 collected with
the bed tax, $175 is realized
through tourists' spending.
It is also the TDC's plan
to preserve and maintain as
much of Levy County as pos-
sible without turning its lush
wide-open spaces into strip
malls, theme parks and con-
gested areas.
"Help us make this a clean
tourism place," McQueen
urged.
The TDC is currently seek-
ing an advertising agency
to help develop a new pro-
motion campaign for Levy
County.
Everything from creating
a logo to printing brochures
will help market the area.
The TDC will work closely

FWS
Continued from front
conducted in late March to
May and September to Oc-
tober in 2006 and January to
February in 2007. Individuals
will be asked about their par-
ticipation and expenditures in
several categories of wildlife-
associated recreation. Results
are published in a national re-
port and in 50 individual state
reports. The survey has been
conducted every five years
since 1955.
Participation is voluntary
and all responses are confi-
dential. Data collected will
be used for statistical purpos-
es only and no participant can
be identified from informa-
tion contained in the reports.
Interviewing begins March
27 with a screening of 85,000
households. Representative
samples will be chosen to
include 31,500 anglers and
hunters and 24,300 wildlife
watchers (wildlife photogra-,
phers, feeders, and observ-
ers).
Preliminary survey findings
will be available in the spring
of 2007, Final reports will be
issued beginning in the fall
of 2007. The reports, when
completed, will be posted at
surveys/surveys.html>.
The 2001 survey revealed
82 million Americans en-
joyed some form of wildlife-
related recreation and spent
more than $108 billion pur-
suing their activities.

The last thing needed, Mc-
Queen said, is for a tourist to
stop in a restaurant, ask his
waitress what there is to do
in Levy County and have that
waitress reply, "Nothing."
McQueen is currently com-
piling materials for a brochure
on what to do on a rainy day
in Levy County.
She also asks that anyone
who knows places of inter-
ests that can be .included in
the tourist's guide to contact
her.
McQueen said the inven-
tory of attractions includes
springs, forests, refuges, boat
ramps and museums, but
there are other hidden won-
ders in the county that need
to be included.
Anyone with information
to share may contact Mc-
Queen through the board of
county commissioners' office
at 352-486-5218.


Late March 14, Federal Judge Emmett Sullivan ordered that
the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
has a mandatory duty to take over the writing and issuing of
a discharge permit to the Buckeye pulp mill in Perry. Judge
Sullivan was extremely critical of the Florida DEP's long-
time mishandling of the Buckeye facility and expressed
extreme disappointment over the ongoing degraded state of
the Fenholloway River.
"Judge Sullivan recognized yesterday that the Clean Water
Act does apply in Florida after all and EPA can't ignore its
responsibilities for this environmental travesty," said Sierra
Club litigation director David Bookbinder. Bookbinder filed
the case against the EPA and provided oral arguments in
federal court last week.
In 1998 the EPA objected to the proposed Buckeye permit
which included a 15-mile long pipe to the Gulf of Mexico.
EPA's objections stopped the permit from moving forward
and then EPA Administrator Carol Browner put her top pulp
and paper technology experts on a mission to find solutions to
Buckeye's pollution problems that would not involve a pipe
to the Gulf.
In 2000 an extensive technology report was issued by EPA
which provided affordable solutions to Buckeye, but the report
was shunned by the Florida DEP and scorned by Buckeye.
The case then floundered and Buckeye's dioxin-contaminated
pollution continued to pour into the Fenholloway River and
eventually to the Gulf of Mexico where it has caused a 10-'
square mile dead zone.
"This case goes back to Carol Browner's time, a Florida
native who understood the value of the Fenholloway," said
Jessica Landman, a board member for the Clean Water
Network of Florida and a former senior water attorney for

EPA for leadership and now we are back to demand it."
.Sierra Club and the American Canoe Association then sued
EPA to get the permit moving forward again and eventually
won that suit as well. EPA was forced to hold a public hearing,
which was requested by the DEP and Buckeye.

After the hearing, DEP had 30 days to either correct the
permit's deficiencies or deny the permit application from
Buckeye but failed to do either one. EPA then had a
mandatory duty to take back the permit and write one that
complies with requirements of the Clean Water Act. When
EPA failed to regain responsibility for the permit, Bookbinder
again filed suit, asking the court to make EPA obey the law
and take control of the Buckeye permit.
Florida DEP has proposed a second pipeline permit for
Buckeye which has been temporarily stopped by a group of
citizens who petitioned for an administrative hearing. That
hearing was scheduled to take place in November, but will
have to be cancelled as a result of yesterday's ruling by Judge
Sullivan.
"Whatever happens with an EPA permit, now that we are
in a federal permit proceeding, there will be safeguards and
public participation opportunities that will enable a just and
legitimate process to unfold," said Linda Young, director of
the Clean Water Network of Florida. "Although we were
willing to fight this permit at the Division of Administrative
Hearings (DOAH), we knew that there was no chance we
could get a fair hearing there and we would eventually have
to get it into a federal court where there is still justice to be
had for an average citizen."
