Physical, Chemical, and Biological Data for Detailed Study of Irrigation
Drainage in the Middle Green River Basin, Utah, 1988-89, With Selected
Data for 1982-87. USGS Open-File Report 91-530, 1991. 213p, 10 fig, 69
tab, 11 ref.

Peltz, L A; Waddell, B

Physical, chemical, and biological data were collected in the middle
Green River basin, eastern Utah, between 1988 and 1989, as part of a
detailed study of the effects of irrigation drainage on wetlands areas.
Data-collection efforts were concentrated in the Stewart Lake Waterfowl
Management Area near Jensen, and Ouray National Wildlife Refuge near
Ouray. Data also were collected from Ashley Creek near Vernal, Pelican
Lake near Ouray, and in Pariette Wetlands near Myton. A limited quantity
of data collected during earlier studies (1982-87), funded by the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service, also is included. This report contains data
needed to assess the effects of selenium and other potentially toxic
contaminants on streams and wetlands. Data consist of concentrations of
trace elements and common elements in samples of water, sediments,
plants, waterfowl, birds, fish, and invertebrates. Other data presented
in the report are groundwater levels, surface water discharges,
radiochemical constituents in water, analyses of organochlorine
compounds in biota, and morphometric measurements of biota.

From: Thomas Vitolo \<tjvitolo@yahoo.com\>\
To: Multiple recipients of list \<voting@nist.gov\>\
Subject: How to make electronic voting trustworthy:\
X-To: voting@nist.gov

Sirs:

To make electronic voting trustworthy, the following must occur:

1.  The equipment must not have removable storage devices publically
available.

 This means no USB, no disc drive, no CD ROM, no serial port, no IR
port, etc.

A secure locking mechanism (not just an easily picked cheap computer
lock) is

necessary to physically secure the machine.

2.  There\'s no reason whatsoever to have these machines networked
during the

voting process.  Using wired networking to synch the machines and
tabulate the

votes is worthwhile, but the machines should only be networked before
and after

all voting has occurrecd.

3.  A paper reciept is essential, and not difficult to implement. 
Retail has

spent years using a reliable, cheap, robust reciept solution.  A paper
reciept

is essential to ensure that voting is being tabulated correctly, and to
hedge

against any hardware failure, software failure, or power outage \-- all
of which

are certain to occur somewhere on any given election day.

4.  The source code should be open.  Since elections are such a public
good, I

believe that the code should be available for anybody to inspect.  At
the very

least, it should be made available to universities, government agencies,
and

other organizations with the ability and public interest necessary to
oversee

the code.

5.  The code that is inspected should be the code run.  Not the next
version,

not last week\'s version, not some beta version.  Ensuring that the code
on the

machines is the exact same as the code that has been held to public
scrutiny is

important to ensure security and correct tabulation.

6.  See (3).  Paper reciepts are absolutely essential for recounts, to
verify

that the machines are operating properly, and to gain public trust.

Computerized ballot boxes can be done well, although I doubt that an

organization can both (i) build a secure, safe, and stable e-ballotbox,
while

\(ii\) seeking to maximize profits.  In my opinion, the code should be
written by

public entities (gov\'t agencies, universities operating on US grants,
etc) and

run on cheap, stable hardware designed for physical, logical, and
network

security.

Thomas Vitolo

After maneuvering the jargon in the DEI statement of the BLM WOPR, I
must OPPOSE

ALL 3 PROPOSED ALTERNATIVES to the 1994 NW Forest Plan.

My concerns include:

1)  Alternative 3 totally ignores shade retention & buffers by streams,

2)  does not address spotted owl & murrelet protection, is basically a
    laissez-faire approach

for the timber industry (sounds like "Wise" Use ideology of exploitation
of natural resources

as if there were no tomorrow).

ALTERNATIVE 2 is only slightly less radical.

ALTERNATIVE 1 only allows one half of riparian reserves.

Given Climate Change, we need to PROTECT THE FORESTS and their cooling,
CO2 producing green canopy. The BLM plans seem to favor the industry and
OHV's over the value of a natural environment with wilderness preserved,
along with land of "mixed use".

Clearcutting and radical thinning can lead to increased likelihood of
seasonal forest fires (Large trees are a key to forest health and are
fire deterrents).

Clear cutting such as that near OSU and near Highway 38 create
conditions

conducive to landslides in rainy weather (December 2007).

THE CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR DECISION ON FOREST MANAGEMENT IN THE NORTHWEST

WILL BE HUGE -- FOR BETTER OR WORSE. THE HEALTH OF THE FOREST IS LINKED
TO THE

HEALTH OF ALL THE INHABITANTS (human & otherwise) OF OUR BEAUTIFUL
STATE.

PLEASE MAINTAIN THE CURRENT MANAGEMENT MODE OF OPERATION AND TAKE NO

FURTHER ACTION UNTIL YOU THOROUGHLY REVIEW THE SUGGESTIONS & COMMENTS OF

THE CITIZENS WHO WILL BE AFFECTED...FOR GENERATIONS TO COME.

Use of Power Tools for Mortar Removal

Masonry

Revised Sept-95

Masonry Restoration & Cleaning-04900

\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\--

The Secretary of the Interior\'s guidelines of repointing discourage the
use of power saws for removing mortar from masonry joints. Soft masonry
and narrow joints make historic buildings especially vulnerable to
damage by power saws.

However, recent experience combining manual and power tools for mortar
removal demonstrates that limited types of power tools can reduce
fatigue-related masonry damage and realize substantial savings for the
Government.

The currently approved technique for employing power tools for pointing
mortar removal follows. Two types of tools may be used: the conventional
circular saw, or the lighter and more precise pneumatic carving tool.
The pneumatic carving tool features a round shank that enables the
chisel to be oriented independent of the tool. The power can be
overridden by simply pulling the chisel away from the piston.

Insert this clause in all contract specifications involving masonry
repointing:

\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\--

04900 Masonry Restoration and Cleaning - Repointing of Existing Masonry:

Cut the center of the joint using a 4 1/2 inch (maximum) angle grinder,
such as the Type 100 Black and Decker Industrial Heavy Duty slow speed
Grinder or equal with a 4 inch maximum, 1/8 inch thick, diamond blade
circular head. Alternatively, the Barre Short Stroke Pneumatic Carving
Tool (Type S or D with a Splitter or Cape Chisel), as manufactured by
Trow and Holden Co., 45 South Main Street, Barre, Vermont 05641
1-807-476-7121/1-800-451-4349, may be used.

Hand rake out the mortar after a single pass has been made with the
circular saw. Use chisels with 1 1/2 inch maximum heads for cutting out
the mortar. Sharpen chisels hourly to minimize chipping. One-quarter
inch chip per linear yard of cutting is the minimum standard of
acceptable skill. Additional damage may be grounds for removal of a
technician from this job.

Use power tools only on horizontal joints thicker than 1/8 inch. Hand
rake head joints and any joints less than or equal to 1/8 inch in
thickness. The width of the chisel must not exceed three-quarters of the
width of the mortar joint. The pneumatic carving tool is preferable for
raking narrow joints.

Prior to initiating pointing work, all technicians performing masonry
removal under his contract must successfully complete five linear feet
of cutting and raking of mortar joints in the presence of the
Contracting Officer or his representative. Unsuccessful performance of
the test is grounds for the Government\'s rejection of the technician
for this job.\"

Dear Mr. Gonzalez, Dr. Banks, and Dr. Mendoza:

Consistent with provisions of the Montreal Protocol and of Decision
IX/6, the United States submits the enclosed nomination for a methyl
bromide critical use exemption for 2006 (amounting to 37% of our 1991
baseline), as well as a small supplemental request for 2005 (some 2% of
our baseline).

The enclosed documents generally follow the format recently set out in
the Methyl Bromide Handbook, and includes supplemental information as
appropriate. We provided an overview of our 2005 supplemental request as
a separate document in included as an appendix in individual sector
nominations. We hope that this organization provides the information in
the most accessible manner to facilitate the efforts of the Technology

RE: The tariff classification of a woman's tank top from Mauritius.

Dear Mr. Makalou:

In your letter dated December 12, 2002, you requested a classification
ruling for a woman's tank top. The sample is being returned as you
requested.

Style 28-93460 (solid colors), which will also be imported under style
number 28-86266 printed fabric, is a woman's tank top constructed from
100 percent cotton knit fabric. The tank top has an adjustable boat
shaped neckline in front and back, ¼ inch shoulder straps that tie at
the top of the shoulder, and a plain, hemmed bottom. The shoulder straps
are drawstrings inserted in a tunnel at the top of the front and back of
the garment. The drawstrings extend beyond the end of the tunnel,
forming the straps that are then tied at the top of the shoulder, also
permitting slight adjustment to the neckline.

The applicable subheading for the tank top will be 6109.10.0060,
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides
for Tank tops and similar garments, knitted or crocheted: Of cotton:
women's. The duty rate will be 17% ad valorem.

The tank top falls within textile category designation 339. Based upon
international textile trade agreements category 339 from Mauritius is
subject to the requirement of a visa.

The designated textile and apparel categories and their quota and visa
status are the result of international agreements that are subject to
frequent renegotiations and changes. To obtain the most current
information, we suggest that you check, close to the time of shipment,
the [U.S. Customs Service Textile Status Report]{.underline}, an
internal issuance of the U.S. Customs Service, which is available at the
Customs Web site at www.customs.gov. In addition, the designated textile
and apparel categories may be subdivided into parts. If so, visa and
quota requirements applicable to the subject merchandise may be affected
and should also be verified at the time of shipment.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the
Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be
provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is
imported. If you have any questions regarding the ruling, contact
National Import Specialist Angela De Gaetano at 646-733-3052.

**§4.27 Use of diagnostic code numbers.**

The diagnostic code numbers appearing opposite the listed ratable
disabilities are arbitrary numbers for the purpose of showing the basis
of the evaluation assigned and for statistical analysis in the
Department of Veterans Affairs, and as will be observed, extend from
5000 to a possible 9999. Great care will be exercised in the selection
of the applicable code number and in its citation on the rating sheet.
No other numbers than these listed or hereafter furnished are to be
employed for rating purposes, with an exception as described in this
section, as to unlisted conditions. When an unlisted disease, injury, or
residual condition is encountered, requiring rating by analogy, the
diagnostic code number will be "built-up" as follows: The first 2 digits
will be selected from that part of the schedule most closely identifying
the part, or system, of the body involved; the last 2 digits will be
"99" for all unlisted conditions. This procedure will facilitate a close
check of new and unlisted conditions, rated by analogy. In the selection
of code numbers, injuries will generally be represented by the number
assigned to the residual condition on the basis of which the rating is
determined. With diseases, preference is to be given to the number
assigned to the disease itself; if the rating is determined on the basis
of residual conditions, the number appropriate to the residual condition
will be added, preceded by a hyphen. Thus, rheumatoid (atrophic)
arthritis rated as ankylosis of the lumbar spine should be coded
"5002--5240." In this way, the exact source of each rating can be easily
identified. In the citation of disabilities on rating sheets, the
diagnostic terminology will be that of the medical examiner, with no
attempt to translate the terms into schedule nomenclature. Residuals of
diseases or therapeutic procedures will not be cited without reference
to the basic disease.

RE: The tariff classification of a tea towel from India.

Dear Ms. Klingbeil:

In your letter dated April 1, 2002 you requested a classification
ruling.

The submitted sample, identified as article 10053578 "Iris", is a red
colored tea towel. The towel is made from 100 percent cotton woven
fabric. It features combinations of waffle and plain weaves which create
a square design. The tea towel measures approximately 21 x 28 inches.
All of the edges are hemmed. You indicate that the towel will be
available in two more colors "Iris" blue (article 70053580) and "Iris"
white (article 00041425).

The applicable subheading for the towel will be 6302.91.0045, Harmonized
Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for bed
linen, table linen, toilet linen and kitchen linen: other: of cotton...
other: dish. The duty rate will be 9.5 percent ad valorem.

The tea towel falls within textile category designation 369. Based upon
international textile trade agreements products of India are not subject
to quota or visa requirements.

The designated textile and apparel categories and their quota and visa
status are the result of international agreements that are subject to
frequent renegotiations and changes. To obtain the most current
information, we suggest that you check, close to the time of shipment,
the [U.S. Customs Service Textile Status Report]{.underline}, an

STATEMENT OF CHAIRMAN WILLIAM KENNARD AND COMMISSIONER GLORIA TRISTANI,
DISSENTING IN PART

We disagree with the majority's decision not to designate Cornerstone's
application for hearing. Under Section 73.621 of our rules, an applicant
for a reserved channel must demonstrate that the station "will be used
primarily to serve the educational needs of the community." If there is
any substantial and material question of fact on that issue, the
Commission must designate the application for hearing on the issue of
whether the applicant's proposed programming is primarily educational.
Here, even according all due deference under our precedent, the
applicant has failed to carry its burden of proof. There are simply too
many unresolved questions of fact regarding whether the proposed
programming is primarily educational, or primarily something else.

Nor do we believe that the Commission's current standard is too vague to
be applied to this applicant. The Commission established the general
rule that reserved channels must be used primarily to serve the
educational needs of the community and left the assessment of whether
the standard has been met to case-by-case review. There is nothing
unusual or improper about this. To the contrary, it is well-settled that
"the decision whether to proceed by rulemaking or adjudication lies
within the broad discretion of the agency."[^1] In any event, even
assuming that our standards needed to be clarified, the right solution
would have been to give the administrative law judge further guidance,
not to give this applicant a free pass. The people of Pittsburgh \-- who
are counting on the Commission to preserve the integrity of channels
reserved for educational use \-- deserve no less.

Instead, the majority has decided to grant the application. Standing
alone, the majority's decision to grant this application would eliminate
all eligibility standards for the reserved band.

To avoid this result, we join in that part of the order which sets forth
clarified programming standards for broadcasters using reserved
noncommercial channels. All broadcasters, including Cornerstone, are
subject to this standard, which provides, among other things, that
programming primarily devoted to religious exhortation (e.g.,
preaching), proselytizing, or statements of personally-held religious
views and beliefs generally will not qualify as educational programming.
While we regret the Commission's decision not to apply this standard to
the facts before us, we believe that today's decision will permit the
Commission to more effectively and expeditiously enforce its rules in
future cases involving any broadcasters, including Cornerstone, alleged
to be in violation of those rules.

**USDA RURAL DEVELOPMENT AND REPUBLICAN CITY CELEBRATE FUNDING OF \$2.2
MILLION FOR WATER IMPROVEMENTS**

**Republican City, Neb., April 22, 2008 ---** USDA Rural Development and
the residents of Republican City celebrated in honor of Earth Day, the
funding of a \$2.2 million water improvement project. The improvements
will ensure a dependable supply of safe drinking water to the 209
residents of the village.

"Water is one of our earth's most precious natural resources and we need
to make a concerted effort to preserve this resource for generations to
come," stated Scot Blehm, state director for USDA Rural Development in
Nebraska. "Rural Development is pleased to assist Republican City with
their water system improvements that will bring a reliable supply of
safe, potable water to its' residents."

USDA Rural Development presented a ceremonial check to the Village for a
\$1,017,000 loan and \$695,000 grant provided via the Water and Waste
Disposal Loan and Grant program. A Community Development Block Grant of
\$250,000 and Drinking Water State Revolving Fund loan and grant
totaling \$200,000 completed the funding needed.

"Thank you to the USDA Rural Development, CDBG and SRF for coming to the
aid of Republican City.  With their assistance, the Village Board is now
able to go ahead with the development of a new well field to provide the
residents with safe, potable water," stated Wayne Lutjeharms,
chairperson for the Village of Republican City.

The Village of Republican City's municipal water system is under an
Administrative Order for high nitrates resulting in a new water source
being needed to bring the system back into compliance with the Safe
Drinking Water Act. The Village considered several alternatives for
their water source needs and determined a new well field to be the best
solution. Republican City also experiences problems with maintaining
adequate water pressures throughout the entire community caused by the
existing storage facility needing major repairs and maintenance and the
lack of necessary height to maintain the pressures needed. A new 100,000
gallon storage tank will be developed to resolve the water pressure
issue. Other water system improvements will include the installation of
228 water meters and system controls.

Chlorine and bromine from halocarbons catalyze the destruction of ozone
in the stratosphere. CMDL\'s measurements of anthropogenic halocarbons
show that while mixing ratios of chlorine have decreased since the early
1990s, bromine from halons continues to increase. The decrease in
chlorine has slowed recently owing to the lessening influence of methyl
chloroform, but growth rates of CFCs have continued to decline in recent
years; chlorine from aggregated CFCs was no longer increasing in 2000.
The gases used as CFC substitutes, the HCFCs, are no longer increasing
exponentially. Annual increases in chlorine from HCFCs have remained
fairly constant at about 10 ppt Cl yr^-1^ since the mid-1990s. Methyl
chloride and methyl bromide also transport a significant fraction of
halogen to the stratosphere, but have substantial natural sources. These
gases have exhibited significant interannual variability in recent years
because of variability in their natural sources. Global mixing ratios of
both of these methyl halides have decreased since 1998, but it is
difficult to conclude that the decreases in methyl bromide arise from
production restrictions in developed countries during recent years. This
presentation will focus on describing these updated trends and
discussing their implications for stratospheric ozone recovery.

curves are estimates of global means at Earth's surface. For CH~3~Br and
CH~3~Cl, thin curves are global means and thick curves are 12-month
running global means. The gases shown represent over 90% of the chlorine
and bromine transported to the stratosphere in the form of long-lived
gases.
