### REGION 23 (MISSISSIPPI) 700 MHz

**PUBLIC SAFETY PLANNING COMMITTEE**

**ANNOUNCES FIRST MEETING**

The Region 23 (Mississippi) 700 MHz Public Safety Planning Committee
announces that its first meeting will be held on Wednesday, January 9,
2002, at 9:00 a.m. at 4080 US Highway 11, Hattiesburg, Mississippi. The
purpose of the meeting is to:

1.  Establish a 700 MHz Regional Planning Committee,

2.  Elect a chairman.

The Region 23 700 MHz Public Safety Planning Committee meeting is open
to the public. All eligible public safety providers in Mississippi may
utilize these frequencies. It is essential that participants be
representatives of all eligible public safety providers in order to
ensure that each agency's future spectrum needs are considered in the
allocation process. Administrators who are not oriented in the
communications field should delegate someone with this knowledge to
attend, participate and represent your agency's needs.

All interested parties wishing to participate in the planning for the
use of new public safety spectrum in the 700 MHz band within Region 23
should plan to attend. The convener for the Region 23 700 MHz Regional

Create Your Own String

This method may be a little tricky at first; just keep trying, and
you'll get it!

1.  Separate out an even number of raffia pieces, and tie a knot in the
    center, with a loop to hold onto.

2.  Starting at the knot, twist the fibers tightly in a
    [clockwise]{.underline} direction. Only do about 2" at a time.

3.  Do the same thing with the other bunch of fibers. Be sure to twist
    them in the same direction, or it won't work!

4.  When both sides are twisted, wrap them tightly together in a
    [counterclockwise]{.underline} direction.

5.  Keep on going to the end of the raffia. You can splice in more
    pieces to make your string longer, or tie a knot in the end.

This is an easier, two person method, but it doesn't turn out quite as
well.

1.  Separate out an even number of raffia pieces, but do not tie a knot.

2.  Each person holds onto an end and twists the raffia
    [clockwise]{.underline}.

3.  As the twist tightens, the string will begin to wrap on itself. A
    third person may be needed to make sure it is done evenly.

This last method only requires one person, but I've not had much luck
with it. Apparently, it works better if you are wearing shorts.

1.  Separate out an even number of raffia pieces.

2.  Roll the raffia down your thigh, pressing firmly. You may need to
    tighten the twist with your fingers.

3.  As the twist tightens, the string will begin to wrap on itself.

**2008 Idaho Small Business Person of the Year**

Dan Long began Al Plumbing & Emergency Rooter Inc. in 1984 with the
stated goal of adding \"one truck per year\" for the 1^st^ ten years
while maintaining a \"top quality\" operation. Some twenty three years
later, Al Plumbing operates twenty five trucks and still strives for
that same \"top quality\" operation. A-l Plumbing states that 90% of its
revenue is derived from plumbing service and drain cleaning and 10% from
remodel work. A-l Plumbing has offices located in Boise and Nampa,
Idaho.

Long strives professionally and personally to make a difference in
setting the example for quality and responsive service, which has
carried A-l Plumbing through continued success and growth as a company.
The company has grown from a single truck with one employee to two
offices with 25 trucks and 36 employees. A-l Plumbing has enjoyed a
growth rate in both sales and profits of between 10-20% annually since
its founding in 1984. Long believes the growth rate in both locations
and number of employees has occurred by maintaining excellent customer
service and satisfaction. Their \"Red Carpet Service\" program has
generated an impressive repeat customer percentage of 87%, he said.

> Dan is very active in the day to day activities of the business. Over
> the years, Dan has adjusted his business model to include eliminating
> new construction plumbing systems and evolving to a niche service
> company. The evolution included identifying and developing new service
> programs and marketing the new services by utilizing examples that the
> customer can respond and relate to. Some of the new services include:
> 24/7 after-hour services, King of the Water Heater program, and most
> recently, the Aging in Place program. The new service programs have
> been very successful because A-l Plumbing has recently surpassed
> 12,000 annual service calls, according to Long.
>
> A-l Plumbing and its employees are very involved in the local
> communities. Each and every year A-l Plumbing donates at a minimum 1%
> of their gross profits towards the local community. To that end, A-l
> Plumbing has donated to: The Boys & Girls Club, Boise Rescue Mission,
> City of Lights, WCA, Hope House, Salvation Army, Booth Home, Faith in
> Action, Corpus Christi House, youth sports and scouts, and many more.

"SBA is proud to name Dan Long the Idaho Small Business Person of the
Year," said Michael Morfitt, Boise SBA acting district director. "Dan's
operation is a good example

of how vision, hard work, integrity, and a little luck can lead to
success. SBA is pleased

to have assisted A-1 Plumbing through it business counseling programs."

Questions Re Tenanting\--Elderly & Phys. Handicapped

Legal Opinion: GME-0003

Index: 9.207

Subject: Questions Re Tenanting\--Elderly & Phys. Handicapped

November 6, 1991

Ms. Jackie S. Crnak

Administrator

Calvary Towers

1099 Clay Street

Winter Park, Florida 32789

Dear Ms. Crnak:

This responds to your letter dated September 10, 1991, in

which you ask the following questions relating to tenanting of a

Section 202/Section 8 complex for the elderly and physically

handicapped:

1\. May management require incoming tenants to provide a

doctor\'s certification that the tenant is able to care for

himself or herself, with or without an attendant, and also care

for the apartment?

2\. Does a handicapped/mobility impaired or disabled person

under age 62 have to occupy a modified (accessible) apartment, or

may that person occupy any apartment in the complex?

With regard to the first question, the regulations

implementing the Fair Housing Act, at 24 CFR 100.202(c), permit

management of an apartment building to make only limited inquiry

relating to the handicap of a prospective tenant. If the

inquiries are made of all applicants, whether or not they have

handicaps, management may inquire into the applicant\'s ability to

meet the requirements of tenancy ( 100.202(c)(1)) but not about

the nature of the individual\'s disability.

The requirements of tenancy include such responsibilities as

paying the rent on time and keeping the premises clean and in

good condition. Thus, we do not believe that the requirements of

tenancy mandate a tenant\'s ability to care for himself or

herself, either with or without an attendant, and such an inquiry

should not be made. It would be appropriate to consider prior

rental references or other sources of information for all

applicants concerning their maintenance of property and other

objective criteria for tenancy.

In response to the second question, the HUD-approved

occupancy policy for the type of project in question (Section 202

project for the elderly and physically handicapped) limits all

except modified (accessible) units to the elderly. Thus, a

handicapped person wishing to live in an unmodified unit which

becomes vacant would be eligible for the unit only if he or she

is also elderly (age 62 or over). However, if the handicapped

person is otherwise eligible (by virtue of age) for such an

unmodified unit, restricting that person from living in that unit

because of the handicap could constitute unlawful housing

discrimination on that basis.

On the other hand, if the handicapped person is under age

62, he or she would not, under the approved project occupancy

policy, be otherwise eligible to live in an unmodified unit in

the complex. Thus, restricting that person from living in such a

unit because of his or her age (a lawful program limit authorized

by statute) would not appear to constitute unlawful

discrimination, either on the basis of age or handicap.

I hope that this information proves helpful to you. Please

let us know if you have any further questions.

Sincerely,

Harry L. Carey

Assistant General Counsel for

Fair Housing

1)  **Recommendation: Helicopter Efficiency Program & Type Categories**

> This proposal was the main focus of this meeting. The steering
> committee reviewed the proposal and suggested some changes to the
> proposal as written. The primary change was to increase the altitude
> and temperature input to the database from five (2,500 & 35C, 5,000 &
> 30C, 8,000 & 25C, 10,000 & 20C, 12,000 & 15C) to reflect altitudes
> between 2,000 PA to 10,000 PA at temperatures of 15C, 20C, 25C, 30C,
> 35C, 40C, and 45C.
>
> Kevin Hamilton made a suggestion concerning building a "Passenger

2)  **Review of Notes from IHOPS National Workshop**

Glenn reviewed the workshop taskings from the notes of the recent IHOPS
workshop. All agreed the workshop was a success with some good work and
decisions being reached. In reviewing the taskings it was noted that
Kris Damsgaard in now the chair of the IAT Steering Committee. Kevin
Hamilton volunteered to work on the final task on the list -- Institute
methods to ensure "Trainee" assignments.

**3) Update on Aviation Transport of Hazardous Materials** -- Kris gave
the group a

quick update on the status of the new handbook and where we are with the

determination of applicability of 49 CFR and the request for a new
exemption.

Kris stated that if we do not receive a determination by the end March
the

Committee working on this would go ahead and proceed with a request for
an

Exemption as we have in the past. This should allow for adequate time to
have an

Exemption in place and the new Handbook available by June 1, 2004.

**Kinetic Modeling to Investigate the Interactions of the Engineered
Pentose Pathway with the Glycolytic (ED) Pathway in *Zymomonas

*Zymomonas mobilis* has engineered several years ago with 4 new enzymes
to ferment xylose along with glucose and a network of pentose pathway
enzymatic reactions interacting with the native glycolytic Entner
Doudoroff pathway has been hypothesized. We are currently investigating
this proposed reaction network by developing a kinetic model for all the
enzymatic reactions of the pentose phosphate and glycolytic pathways.
Kinetic data on different sugar metabolism rates and enzymatic activity
data will be used to refine the model parameters available in the
literature and validate the proposed reaction network. In addition to
the well characterized glucose and xylose fermentation data, striking
differences in fructose fermentation rates for the host and engineered
strains of *Z. mobilis* provide additional insights into the reaction
network under investigation. New ^31^P NMR spectroscopy results from
intact cells and cell extracts provide dynamic information on the
concentrations of various intracellular phosphorylated intermediates.
These experimental data will be compared with model simulations for the
hypothesized reaction network in this presentation.

Observe the [End of the British Slave Trade]{.underline} and Honor
[William Wilberforce]{.underline}

Dear Colleague:

We invite you to join us in observing the end of the British slave trade
and honoring William Wilberforce by cosponsoring H.Res. 158.

As you may know, two hundred years ago this month, on February 23, 1807,
the British parliament passed a bill that banned the British Empire's
involvement in the slave trade.  This was due, in large part, to the
diligent work of William Wilberforce, who fought for 20 years against
the horrors of the trade.

Mr. Wilberforce was elected to the British House of Commons in 1780,
when he was just 21 years old.  Early in his career, he was mentored and
counseled by former slave trader and author of the hymn ''Amazing
Grace,'' John Newton, on the horrors of the slave trade.  Even after the
banning of the slave trade, Wilberforce continued to fight slavery and,
in 1833, was informed on his death bed that the House of Commons had
voted to abolish slavery altogether.

Mr. Wilberforce's efforts reached far beyond Britain. His work helped
inspire and encourage those working against slavery in the United
States, including political leaders like John Quincy Adams, Thomas
Jefferson, and, ultimately, Abraham Lincoln.

H.Res. 158 will commemorate the end of the slave trade, praise the work
and legacy of Wilberforce, and encourage the people of the United States
to recognize the value of each individual by fighting modern day slavery
and human trafficking.

We have also attached the trailer for the movie "Amazing Grace" that
will be released on February 23.  This movie is an inspirational account
of the life of William Wilberforce and will help educate the public on
his dramatic role in shaping history.  

If you would like to cosponsor H.Res. 158, please let us know or contact
Ben Gehl (Pitts) at x 52411 or Molly Miller (Wolf) at x 55136.

[FIRST TIME HOMEOWNER PURCHASES HOME ACROSS THE MILES]{.underline}

**(Yankton, South Dakota -- June 21, 2006)** Earl (Pete) Titus wanted to
return to his childhood hometown to enjoy his retirement. Pete was a
resident of Portsmouth, New Hampshire. He had a desire to move back to
Yankton, South Dakota to be near his brothers Robert (Bob) Titus of
Yankton, South Dakota and Jack Titus of Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

Pete was referred to USDA Rural Development by a local lending
institution (CorTrust Bank).

Due to the miles between Pete and the local USDA Rural Development
Office, Pete appealed to his brother (Bob), who resided in Yankton, for
assistance with the application process. Bob was the emissary between
Pete and the local Rural Development Office. Bob met with the Rural
Development Specialist, Patti Ebeling to process an application on
behalf of his brother. Bob stopped short of signing the Promissory Note
for his brother, however, Pete was amazed that USDA Rural Development
would go the "distance" and assist him. He stated, "this kind of service
would never have happened on the East Coast". Thanks to the combined
efforts the "Titus brothers" (Pete and Bob) are now back door neighbors.

A success story was born due to the working relationship that was
developed and nurtured between USDA Rural Development and our local
lending institutions. USDA Rural Development helped this first time
homebuyer achieve his dream of owning a home.

USDA Rural Development has ten offices in the state that assist rural
communities. Office locations include a state office in Huron, along
with area offices in Aberdeen, Huron, Mitchell, Pierre, Rapid City,
Sioux Falls, Sturgis, Watertown, and Yankton.

USDA Rural Development's mission is to deliver programs in a way that
will support increasing economic opportunity and improve the quality of
life of rural residents. As a venture capital entity, Rural Development
provides equity and technical assistance to finance and foster growth in
homeownership, business development, and critical community and
technology infrastructure. Further information on rural programs is
available at a local USDA Rural Development office or by visiting USDA's
web site at <http://www/rurdev.usda.gov>.

######## SAMPLE LETTER SENT FROM OCSE TO STATE

The Federal Office of Child Support Enforcement (OCSE) received
notification from the Financial Management Service (FMS) that obligor(s)
from your State are involved in bankruptcy proceedings (see Attachment
1). If the bankruptcy filing occurred within the last year, FMS has
inactivated the case. OCSE has set the TAX and ADM exclusion indicators
for these cases at FMS. We also carried forward any other exclusion
indicators that had been set on the case. Once OCSE confirms that the
exclusion indicators are properly set at FMS, we will reactivate the
case.

If the bankruptcy occurred more than one year ago, the case has not been
inactivated at FMS nor has OCSE taken any action to reset exclusion
indicators. This notice is provided for informational purposes only.

Once the obligor completes the bankruptcy process, it is the
responsibility of the State to remove the exclusion indicators. This can
be accomplished by submitting an "R" transaction on the case submission
and update file to reset the exclusion indicators appropriate for the
case. If OCSE sends your Pre-Offset Notice and a year has passed since
the obligor filed bankruptcy, OCSE strongly encourages the State to
delete the case and resubmit it so that a new Pre-Offset Notice can be
issued.

States should immediately initiate an on-line update for any bankruptcy
cases they become aware of. Using the "R" transaction, the ADM and TAX
exclusion indicators should be set. Just as OCSE sets the exclusion
indicators with cases, it is the responsibility of the State to
reactivate the case once the bankruptcy is complete.

If you have any questions, please call Alvee Harrison, Bankruptcy
Monitor (202) 401-1425.

> Sincerely,
>

# ANIMAL TRAILS AND WALKWAYS 

## PRACTICE INTRODUCTION

**USDA, Natural Resources Conservation Service―Practice Code 575**

![](media/image1.png){width="5.976388888888889in"
height="3.998611111111111in"}

### ANIMAL TRAILS AND WALKWAYS

Animal trails and walkways provide a travel lane through difficult or
ecologically sensitive terrain.

### PRACTICE INFORMATION 

This practice is installed on grazing lands as part of a conservation
plan to accomplish one or more of the following:

-   Improve access to forage, water, and or shelter

-   Improve grazing efficiency and distribution

-   Divert travel away from ecologically sensitive and/or erosive sites

Trails or walkways are often needed where animal movement is impeded or
restricted because of steep rough terrain, rock outcrops, dense
vegetation, water, etc.

The structures will be wide enough for livestock movement and vehicles.
Walkways will be constructed based on normal high water levels.
Supporting structures for water management will be provided. Soil
erosion will be minimized during construction. Walkway borrow pits will
be staggered to provide access to grazing areas on either side of the
structure.

### COMMON ASSOCIATED PRACTICES

Animal Trails and Walkways is commonly planned as part of a Conservation
Management System with Prescribed Grazing (528), Fence (382), Access
Control (472), and other conservation practices.

For further information, refer to the practice standard in the local
Field Office Technical Guide and associated practice specifications and
job sheets.

CLOVERDALE COMMUNITY HOUSING RECEIVES USDA AWARD

Cloverdale (03-04; 11-14-02): Each year USDA Rural Development invites
nominations to recognize those Indiana apartment projects financed
through USDA that are noteworthy for their excellent management and
maintenance practices. USDA Rural Development announced recently that
Cloverdale Community Housing, Inc. has been recognized as the USDA Rural

Todd Lewis, President, Cloverdale Community Housing Board of Directors,
was presented a Special Achievement Award by Robert White, USDA Rural
Development State Director, during the monthly community luncheon. The
onsite manager for Cloverdale Community Housing, Inc. is Marie Leach.
Marie has been with Cloverdale Community Housing, Inc. for 10 years and
has been instrumental in making the apartment complex feel like home for

Citizens band. The Cloverdale apartments for the elderly are a major
asset to the community.

White said, \"In Indiana there are over 600 rural rental housing
developments with nearly 14,000 apartment units financed by USDA.
Cloverdale Community Housing is certainly one of the best and is very
deserving of this special recognition. Congratulations to the board, the
site manager and the residents.\"
