M I D D L E B U R Y — L a wenforcement agencies in Ad-dison County and elsewhereare participating in an inten-sive crackdown on impaireddriving thr ough Sept. 5,known as the “Drive Soberor Get Pulled Over” cam-paign.
The V ermont State Po-lice’s Operation C.A.R.E.will also be adding to en-forcement ef forts locallyover Labor Day weekend,Sept. 2 through Sept. 5.
The pr oblem of impair eddriving is a serious one. InVermont, while the number
alcohol-impaired-drivingfatalities decr eased fr om 26in 2009 to 24 in 2010, thenumber is still high.
“Our message is simpleand unwavering: if we findyou driving impair ed, wewill arr est you” “said Lt.John Flannigan, V ermontState Police Traffic SafetyCommander. “Ther efore weurge all V ermont motoriststo drive safe and be respon-sible.”
According t o p olice of fi-cials, sobriety and safetycheckpoints are an ef fectivemethod for deterring drink-ing and driving by incr eas-ing awar eness of the dan-gers of impaired driving andencouraging designateddrivers.
In 2010, over the LaborDay holiday, a total of 18,977contacts passed through the53 checkpoints on V ermonthighways resulting in 92 ar-rests for driving under theinfluence of alcohol ordrugs.
According to Kirk Martin,Orleans County Sherif f vio-lators often face jail time,loss of their driver licenses,or being sentenced to use ig-nition interlocks. The finan-cial impacts include insur-ance rate increases, attorneyfees, court costs, lost time atwork, and the potential lossof job or job prospects. Whenfamily, friends and co-work-ers find out, violators canalso face tr emendous per-sonal embarrassment.
Organic and non-organic farmers from Addison and Rutland counties gathered at the Hall-Breen DairyFarm in Or well recently to see demonstrations of farm r obots in ac tion. Holland-based Lely Group,makers of the farm’s robot milking system, were on hand to answer questions and serve up a festivebarbecue for guests.

Quarter horses featuredBy Alice [email protected]
NEW H AVEN — Vermont Q uarter H orse Association i nconjunction with the Addison County Fair and Field Daysorganization held a new event at the fair grounds in NewHaven.
The “money payback” gymkhana was the brainchild ofLori Brown. She competes her horses on the local gymkhanacircuit with her children and husband.
Brown presented the opportunity to Kathy Nisun, boar ddirector of the horse area for Field Days. Nisun took the ideato the board and thus was born the evening gymkhana event,the first one to ever be held during the fair.
Over 30 competitors hauled their horses in from the local5 town area as well as Castleton, Brandon, Fairfax, Milton,Rutland and Townsend as well as from Whitehall, N.Y., foran opportunity of not only an evening of fun with their hors-es and friends at the fair but also a chance to win back mon-ey for placing in the top 3 of their division. Evening pay-backs ranged from $6 to $67 for the winners.
In case you are wondering what a gymkhana is, it’s some-times referred to as “games on horseback” against the clock.All events are timed and test a horse and rider’s speed, agili-ty and contr ol, ar ound and thr ough obstacles, barr els andpoles. All ages, breeds and level of riders are eligible to com-pete in these open games.
The events held this year included tunnel vision, polebending, barrel racing, streaking flags and scramble.
A team event for the Little Wranglers and Senior walk/trotriders was a three-legged race.
Prairie Schooner, the team event for the open riders, wasa hoot where the rider rode in, picked up a rope, which wasattached to a tir e in which their partner sat to then racedback to the finish line.
The Prairie Schooner paid back $200 to winners which wassponsored by Kevin Brown of Mountain’s Edge Excavationin Middlebury. The winning team was T om and Lisa Boveof North Ferrisburg.
Other winners, in various categories, are as follows:LITTLE WRANGLERSChampion: Emma Brown. on “Magic”. of Middlebury.Reserve: Payton Vincent. on “Trigger”, of Bristol.
PEEWEEChampion: Madison Cummings, on “Missy”, of Brandon.Reserve: Makaila Cota, on “Little Bit”, of Bristol.JUNIORChampion = Morgan Preston, on “Jet”, of Charlotte.Reserve: Ashley Rae, on “H.D.”, of Westford.SENIOR WALK/TROTChampion: Bobbi Jo Benson, on “Taylor”, of Milton.Reserve: Ashley Datnoff, on “BlackJack”, of Milton.SENIORChampion: Lisa Bove, on “Harley”, of North Ferrisburg.Reserve: Lori Br own, on “Br others Chance”, of Middle-
bury.Given the big turn out for this year’s inaugural event, Ver-
mont Quarter Horse Association hopes to once again alignwith Addison County Fair and Field Days to do a 2nd annu-al money payback gymkhana in 2012 during the fair. So lookfor us again next year.

“Ole Russ. Fweoohwee. Sorry I’m late.”“Not a concern Arden, thanks for showing up anyways. I
wanted to know how much you think you’d end up charg-ing me if you plowed my dooryard for this winter?
“Well, ahh. ffpheeew. You want it pushed back fully, backthere? Ffpheeew, haaaa. Let me catch my breath first.”
“Take your time, Arden. (I laughed) Got all day. No snowin the for ecast for a while anyway … thatyou’d need ta plow, I’m guessing.”
“Well, Russ, I hate to be late ya know, butthe gol darn people drinkin them, fwooofph… bitter, foreign coffees. What is it they likeabout it? It’s strong? They tryin to get high?Why don’t they just drink booze? It’s quick-er by two.”
“What are you sayin’, Arden?”“I’m overly busy . Took too much on, too
many jobs. Stone skippin season’s bout flush,winter ’s comin’, the ole r ubble trailer foun-dation gotta be bucked up with spruce polesand hemlock boughs right off. I’m hammeredwith work. Woke up this morning, give my-self a French dry-clean, hit the road runnin’,doin’ stuff alllll day. Couldn’t imagine being married. SorryI’m late.”
(I laugh) “You ain’t holding me up, Arden.”“Hope not. But see they got one a them frappacheenolat-
te, capalatte, fralattes, yogalattes, er frickin’ Pilates, I don’tknow, I can’t keep my lattes straight nowadays, bbut any-way, they got one a them big gol’ darned frickin’ coffee ma-chines at my place I buy my lottery tickets at. Big as a woodsplitter. It’s not so bad it takes half the day for the futur estate senator behind the counter to pull me two or three lot-to tickets, but when she’s got ta make one a them cof-feecheeno rigs, for some filthy-footed flip-flop wearin’ hip-pie, why the Egyptians push blocks up the long side of apyramid faster.
The fact that it takes a jet engine to fr oth milk—the poorgol’ darn hippies in that restaurant tryin to be peaceful read-
ing gluten-fr ee food hand-outs and playin Jumble, whythey’d like to power -blast granola out their nostrils whenthat frothin machine goes off. Must be there’s the same en-gines in the milk frothin’ machines as they use in the gal dan-ged automatic hand dryers in the public r est r ooms now.Miniature 747 engines in them hand dryers. Loud?
Ffwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh. My friggin’ handsdon’t need to be bone-dry man. I like ‘em a little moist. Themdryers are environmentally good cause they don’t make nopaper, but darn, the noise pollution.
I stopped at a rest area, one that’s closed now because thestate government’s spending too much mon-ey, so they thought they’d close some rest ar-eas and take the money they save fr om clos-ing the rest areas and go ahead and spend itopening up a new jail for women, but I wasat the r est area doing my number one busi-ness, guy trigger ed the hand-dryer—scar edthe fluid down outa me so har d I sandblast-ed a nickel-sized hole straight thr ough theurinal. Didn’t know it was so loud to makeheat in the 21st century.
Cavemen r ub two sticks together , makefire, took a while, but cripes, least it didn’twake the babies back at the cave.
My old woodstove makes mor e heat thenthem hand dryers and it burns quiet as He-
len Keller doing karaoke. No need to have fancy coffee. Twoteaspoons of instant stirred with your finger set ya right up.But you pay four or five dollars for a coffee made from for-eign bean, topped with an inch of very loudly made milkfroth, you feel special, like a New York Yankee, or DallasCowboy, or a retired French teacher living in Paris. Make youfeel like things you envy but know you’ll never be. Fancycoffee makes them people feel rich. Or , richer, r elative towhat they are. That’s the hook, I know that, and I’m dumb.”
“So, ole’ Russ, if your driveway includes the right-of-way,its 45 bucks a plow. If it starts at them two birch posts stuckinto, and stickin’ out of the ground, 25. I won’t plow but onlywhen there’s more en four inches. My hand fr om fingertipto wrist is eight. I put a salute stiff hand, finger first into the

Never feeling entitled
Ever since Peter Shumlin wassworn in as Vermont’s governor,there has been a cloud of uncer-
tainty hovering over the Green MountainState.
Like Miguel de Cervantes’ Man of LaMancha. on his ideological quest acr ossthe Iberian peninsula of the 17th century ,Gov. Shumlin is tilting a few windmills ofhis own—both literal and figurative.
I wonder when Mr. Shumlin will be ableto fit the all-important issue of V ermontunemployment and anemic job cr eationinto his Impossible Dreamquest (which in-cludes his fifth vacation in just eightmonths after gaining the governor’s seat)?
Last week, one of the governor’s top de-partment heads r eferred to his boss’shealth-care plan hemming-and-hawing asjust “temporary uncertainty”. Yet, the factof the matter is that the governor ’s totalM.O. mad been “temporary uncertainty”.
Gov. Shumlin’s “temporary uncertain-ty” principle, especially regarding his sin-gle-payer health car e idea, is now af fect-ing several state employers:
An executive at G.W . Plastics in Betheltold r eporters last week that he is “con-cerned about the unfavorable business cli-mate in Vermont.”
The G.W. executive was especially con-cerned about Gov . Shumlin’s desir e toclose Vermont Yankee (the plastics firm re-lies heavily on atomic-generated electrici-ty). And regarding the governor's single-
payer health car e plan, the Bethel of ficialworried aloud about “the possibility of in-creased costs to companies like G.W.”
Paul Frascoia of Fab-Tech of Colchesterreported in a July 1 1 news r elease that“while we ar e committed to maintainingcurrent employment levels in Vermont, weare choosing to make our new investmentsin other states due to our concern about thefuture cost of single-payer , as well as thehigh cost of electricity, and high taxes, onour Vermont operations.”
Susan Wachob and her husband ar e theowners of Hearthside Quilts in Hines-burg—well, formerly of Hinesburg.
“After 14 years of doing business in Ver-mont we’ve decided to move our businessto V irginia. We have to leave,” W achobsaid in a recent news announcement.
The money began to dry up at the cou-ple’s home-based business. Their businesswas paying a whopping $16,000 a year intaxes.
“In Virginia, we’ll be paying a quarter ofthe business taxes we were paying in Ver-mont. W e r eally had to go somewher ewhere we can build our income back up,”the Wachobs said. Sad but true.
The Wachobs had this message for law-makers before they turned out the lights inHinesburg: “What planet ar e you livingon? It's not the same one I’m living on.We’re empty. We’re done (here).”

Vermont’s Uncertainty PrincipleFabian gentrification
If the governing elitesare careful in theirgentrification strate-
gy—with particular empha-sis on attracting the upper-income and/or -wealth pas-sive-income quintiles of Pro-gressive mindset—they’llconcurrently make sure theydon’t price the lower quin-tiles out of the state; if un-subsidized, eventually theycouldn’t afford to stay,work, and gratefully voteProgressive.
For the lower quintiles,they have alr eady legislatedsubsidies of various sorts— housing, healthcare, school lunches, higher education, foodand fuel. Now it’s for electric rates.
A proposal just floated by Golden Domesources in anticipation of the of ficially de-nied, but-highly probable, cost increases forReddy Kilowatt’s services (once V ermontYankee is successfully put out of businessand the State’s two lar gest utilities, CVPSand GMP, are successfully merged).
A columnist once coined the famous “two-tier” label. He raised a logical further point,which has r eceived even less attention: thenot-so-benign neglect (a little D.P . Moyni-han lingo, slightly modified, ther e) whichautomatically arises when the two upperquintiles and the two lower ones are favoredwhile the folks in the middle are subsidizedneither financially with direct payments, taxcredits, or ceilings, nor esthetically with asubjective permit process and a hostile busi-ness climate to cater to their rarified and el-evated environmental, ecological, and soci-ological wishes. The pattern has been la-beled, somewhat hyperbolically, “the war onthe middle class”, a phrase which brings upmore than 65 million hits on the Googlesearch site.
It’s drawn far more attention beyond Ver-mont than within it; middle-class flight fromMichigan, for all the usual reasons of taxes,regulation, and business climate, for exam-ple, has been the subject of Wall Street Jour-nal op-eds.
But the same stats and findings which un-dergird the W illiam McGurn ar gumentabout Michigan also under girds the situa-tion in V ermont: middle-class flight, withthe directly related shrinkage in K-12 enroll-ment, rising taxes, business climate slump-ing, and a trio of policies—de facto and/or
de jur e—not evident inMichigan, like the envir on-mental and r egulatory ef-forts to attract passive-in-come sector in-migration;the overt governmental hos-tility to such commerce-and-industry pr e-requisites aslow-price power and high-way investment; and the in-come/wealth r e-distribu-tion objectives in such ar easas housing and power ,where the middle-income.
Quintile 3 (which, unliketop quintiles 4 and 5, enjoys
few to no policies designed to curry their fa-vor. For example, surveys have shown, mostof them favor the big-box retail outlets de-spised (and often zoned out) by the GentryLeft) and yet they ar e called upon to helpsubsidize the expenses of Quintiles 1 and 2,which seemingly can’t quite af ford theirproperty taxes (see Acts 60 and 68) or, now,their electricity bill. The cut-of f point forelectricity subsidy, for example, will start at150 percent of the federal poverty guideline,and a household at 151 per cent, Vermonteconomist Art Woolf points out, will now betapped to help pay their bill. And thenthere’s the serious conversation which nev-er happened in V ermont: the r eduction ofproperty as sessment when market valuesdecline, as is required by California’s Propo-sition 13 but has been conspicuously absentin Vermont when values declined signifi-cantly. That happened in the early ‘90’s(they’ve declined less, per centagewise, inthis down-turn) because, as a Middleburyofficial explained (patiently) to your Hum-ble Scribe at the time, “the schools just can’tafford to take the hit”. Presumably the mid-dle-class (unsubsidized) wage-earner orsmall businessman could and should. Afterall, they’re the usual no-voters on things likeschool budgets; if they departed, theywouldn’t be missed. It can’t be pr oven, sta-tistically, that such of ficial policies, someovert and some covert, caused the out-mi-gration of the age-25-44 cohort which beganto draw attention in those years, but it can’tbe denied, either , that no Golden Dome ef-forts to study and perhaps reverse the poli-cies has ever surfaced.
A statewide listening tour by a couple ofRutland-area legislators in those years was

R U T L A N D — C e n t r a lVermont P ublic S ervice h assigned two new power sup-ply contracts, filling the2012 gap in its portfolio cre-ated by the end of the exist-ing contract with V ermontYankee, at attractive prices.
“These contracts serve toensure our r eliable powersupply thr ough the end of2012 at very competitiveprices,” CVPS President andCEO Larry Reilly said. “We
were able to secure contractsat firm prices—wher e per-formance is guaranteed suchthat the sellers would pay toreplace any power shouldthey otherwise fail to deliv-er.”
CVPS, in cooperation withWorld Energy Inc., conduct-ed a highly structured Inter-net auction that involvedapproximately a dozen pr e-screened northeastern gen-erators and ener gy mar-
keters in bidding to provideCVPS's needed supplies.When the bidding closed,CVPS s igned t wo c ontractswith an average price of ap-proximately $47.50 permegawatt-hour, or 4.75cents per kilowatt-hour. Thecontracts will provide about570,000 megawatt-hours ofenergy, or about 20 per centof CVPS’s power supplyduring the life of the con-tracts, for $27 million.
CVPS approves new power deals

promised to focus on just that subject, arguably didn’t (yourHumble Scribe attended the first one) and none of the abovepolicies was ever questioned in terms of disparate impact (a little adapted civil-rights lingo, there) on the unsubsidizedmiddle-class which was shrinking through out-migration.
McGurn explained how Michigan has at least tried to r e-attract the ship-jumpers, but ther e’s no such evidence forVermont, unless you count the one about “keeping collegegrads at home”. Meanwhile the governance class (in themodern Vermont mostly D with a token R presence) has nei-ther denied nor claimed responsibility for the anti-middle-class policies first described by Fr ed Jaegels even well be-fore they became so obvious as they ar e today. The closestto just such a statement came even before Jaegels, from Mid-dlebury environmental/ecological spokesman/expert Dou-glas Burden, who has been quoted in earlier columns on thissubject in this space as recognizing the unfortunate legal ob-stacles to legislating the middle-class down in size or outentirely, and advocating instead that they be priced out, inthe same sort of economic gentrification which worked soeffectively (and drew some criticism, interestingly) in placeslike W ashington’s Geor getown and NYC’s Br ooklynHeights.
It could be (Humble Scribe opinion) that Elbert “Al”Moulton’s “Vermont the Beckoning Country” slogan of the‘60s and ‘70s was aimed at those V ermonter-wannabe’s ofinsufficiently upper -quintile economic standing to be ac-ceptable today; and most likely , Oregon’s unofficial (andmaybe anti-California) “Come Visit, then Go Home” sloganwouldn’t work either: too touristy; and it might be that, by
default, only J.P. Morgan had a prescription for the modernVermont, although he was speaking in terms of yacht own-ership, not pr operty tenur e: “If you have to worry aboutwhat it costs, you can’t af ford it.” By Golden Dome intent(my opinion, again) only quintile 3, and maybe a part of 2,has that worry.

Opera House kicks off 15thyear with membership drive
VERGENNES — The Friends of the V ergennes OperaHouse kickED-off a celebration of 15 years of communityarts at last week’s year ’s Vergennes Day with the start ofa membership drive.
Next year will mark the fifteenth anniversary of thegrand reopening of the Opera House, and the Friends usedlast week’s event to celebrate the community ef fort thathas gone into the revitalization of the cultural icon.
The Vergennes Opera House opened in 1897 in the beau-tiful brick building that also houses V ergennes City Hall.The space hosted famous guests such as Pr esident JamesGarfield, touring theatrical tr oupes, the first moving pic-ture shows seen in Addison County, and dozens of localweddings, debates, graduations, and performances.
The Friends of the Vergennes Opera House was formedin 1993 to restore and reopen this community center, whichhad fallen into disrepair and disuse. After four years of ex-tensive renovations and improvements, the Opera Houseproudly reopened its doors in July 1997 with a keynote ad-dress by Gov. Howard Dean and a performance by the Ver-mont Symphony Or chestra.The Opera House r estorationand reopening was the initial spark for the economic andcultural revival of Vergennes that continues to this day.
According to Boar d Pr esident Allison Rimmer , “TheOpera House is a vital part of our town, and an importantresource for Addison County. Our members, volunteers,staff, and board of directors work together to create a beau-tiful, welcoming space for visitors, performers, and audi-ence members. The Opera House is a wonderful space forthe whole community to enjoy.”
The past 15 years have seen changes and continued im-provements to the space, both large and small. In the pastyear, the Friends hired new Executive Director Eileen Cor-coran, and under her leadership, cr eated the position ofEvents Manager, more than ably filled by Tara Brooks. Thetwo women are several projects to a conclusion, includingcompleting the sprinkler system; installing new ticketingsoftware to better serve our audiences; and updating ourmembership, sponsorship benefits and opportunities.
“We want to continue to build on the incredible amountof time, talent and local support that has gone into the re-vitalization of this wonderful community space.” saidCorcoran. “Our hope is to have all community membersfeel invested in the Opera House and to ensure generationsto come can enjoy it as part of the fabric of their life expe-rience.”

“I got here around 20 after5. It’s a once-in-a-lifetimeevent. It’s something you’llnever see again. Ther e willbe people looking at thesephotos 150-200 years fr omnow.”
The ar ch’s journey endedaround 8:30 a.m. when it ar-rived at the 2,100-footbridge. It was then movedinto place and secur ed be-fore being lifted to the top.
The bridge’s main design-er, HNTB Co rp. chief engi-neer Ted Zoli, watched thearch arrive from every imag-inable location. At theCrown Point pier, just as thearch was moved into placearound 8:30 a.m., Zoli saidthis was the first time peoplewere able to see the bridge inprofile.
“You really get a completesense of how the bridgelooks against the Adiron-dack Mountains,” Zoli said.“It’s a big day. The last pieceof steel is always a big mo-ment on any project.”
Asked if ther e was any-thing during the ar ch-liftthat made him “chew hisnails,” Zoli said, “The floatand the lift is pr obably theeasy part. It’s making theconnections ... that’s the crit-ical piece of the operation ...With (Hurricane) Irene com-
ing, we want the bridge asbuttoned up as we can.”
Hundreds of people wit-nessed the historic eventfrom various places, includ-ing the Cr own Point StateCampground, the Cr ownPoint State Historic Site,boats on the lake, the twoferries, and points along theVermont side of the lake.
Cindy Myrick, of Brid-port, paddled in her kayakfrom a campgr ound in V er-mont to the Cr own PointState Campgr ound pier towatch the bridge arch arriveon Aug. 26. She and her fa-ther, Bob Payne — formerlyof Middlebury and now ofAlbuquerque, N.M. — navi-gated Lake Champain on the
south side of the bridge tosee the arch-raising from thewater.
“It’s a historic mo ment,”Myrick said.
The main navigationalchannel thr ough the centerspan was closed as the ar chwas lifted into place and se-cured. Marine traffic was di-rected thr ough an alterna-tive navigational channel onthe west side of the arch dur-ing this time period. The fer-ry connecting New YorkState to V ermont r emainedopen and operational at alltimes.
Crews worked into theevening hours to lift the arch

The mind behind the newLake Champlain BridgeBy Lou [email protected]
Structural engineer and architectTheodore “Ted” Zoli is recognized as one ofAmerica’s brightest designers of beautifuland lasting modern bridges. His creative useof technological advances in the materialsciences—for example, developing a com-posite, blast-resistant material that has a va-riety of construction applications—has giv-en new promise to the nation’s transporta-tion infrastructure in the post 9/11 world.
Now, Zoli has pr oduced his latest engi-neering marvel—the exciting, new LakeChamplain Bridge. The new str ucture,which r eplaces the demolished 1929 span,links the Cr own Point-Chimney Point nar-rows between Vermont and New York.
Before the Lake Champlain Bridge project,Zoli made his mark with several notable,and award-winning bridge pr ojects includ-ing Boston’s Bunker Hill Bridge, Ohio’sBlennerhassett Island Bridge, and the Mis-souri River Pedestrian Bridge.
In addition to the art of designing, Zolihas tackled the challenges of engineeringscience as well—that of armoring several ofAmerica’s iconic bridges “to maintain theirstructural integrity against the possibility ofdamage from explosion.”
After Sept. 11, 2001, and in a time of budg-etary r estraints and aging infrastr ucture,Zoli is developing tomorr ow’s designs to-day to ensure robust, safe, and cost-effectivenew structures.
Zoli studied at Princeton University andthe California Institute of Technology. He iscurrently affiliated with the HNTB Corpora-tion where he is as a vice president and tech-nical director of bridges. Zoli also lectures atPrinceton University’s Department of CivilEngineering and at Columbia University’sDepartment of Civil Engineering and Engi-neering Mechanics.
Recently, Zoli became a MacArthur Foun-dation fellow. A MacArthur fellow is an in-dividual showing exceptional cr eativity inhis or her work with the pr ospect for stillmore in the futur e—Zoli fulfills theMacArthur ideal and more.
We interviewed Zoli about the new LakeChamplain Bridge and how it will impactthe region—
How did you become involved in the new LakeChamplain Bridge project?
I grew up in the region—in Schroon Lake,N.Y. I was interested immediately in becom-ing a part of this project. I grew up knowingthe 1929 span very well. My family has deeproots in the transportation infrastructure ofthe ar ea, too. My grandfather , Theodor eZoli, built the Northway in New York. So, Ijumped at the chance to also be apart of a bigproject in my greater hometown area.
Our Modified Network Tied Arch conceptis the basis for the new span. Flatir on Con-structors of Longmont, Colo., with the U.S.subsidiary of the German firm Hochtief AG,won the contract for the new bridge. I trulyappreciate being involved with such an im-portant project.
Looking back to the 1929 bridge that so manylocal residents cherished, what kinds of advances
will make this 21st-century bridge a better re-placement?
Fay, Spof ford & Thorndike Engineers ofBurlington, Mass., designed the 1929 bridge.They had to create several techniques—newin 1929—to addr ess specific needs of thatspan. For instance, he designed continuousbridge trusses without the aid of a comput-er. This type of truss—a combination ofthrough tr uss, deck tr uss, and deck plategirders—is not used very much today, but iswas common on early highway bridges.
The 1929 bridge was an important workhistorically, at least in the field of bridgeconstruction. It survived 80 years which Ibelieve is a good life span for a bridge in thatenvironment.
The new bridge has inclined hangers withmultiple intersections that make the net-work arch structure act like a truss with onlyaxial compr essive and tensile for ces actingon it. Bending moments and shear forces arevery small in network arch structures.
There are several innovations on the newspan—flanking “Vs” (supports above theconcrete piers), inclined hangers, cr oss ca-bling (based on the cr oss timbers inside anold fashioned cover ed bridge), load-boxgirders, the use of thermal spray coating(which isn’t paint, but an application of 85percent zinc and 15 per cent aluminum thatis designed for a corr osive maritime envi-ronment), and a r edundant five-parallelgirder approach. (Also, the “modular” ar chwas built nearby and floated to the span.)
Overall, our modified arch bridge is verysafe—it’s state-of-the-art when it comes tostructural safety.
As a bridge engineer-architect, what are yourconcerns about bridge wear and tear as well asinspection concerns?
The parts of similar modern bridges thatrequire the most frequent inspection are thesplash zones, the deck, structural steel com-ponents, and the arch. But as a bridge ages,inspections need to be increased. Also, newfederal changes to inspection r ules r equiremore vigorous inspections. All aroundbridge safety inspection protocols are evolv-ing and impr oving. But with less moneyavailable, planners and designers need toprioritize r ural crossings. We saw how im-portant it is after the demolition of the 1929bridge. This new bridge is of monumentalimportance to the region.

“The remnants of Hurricane Irene have moved out of Ver-mont, but not before washing utility poles and roads away,”he said.
Shumlin ur ged non-essential government employees tostay at home Aug. 29.
More than 40,000 CVPS customers lost power Aug. 28 andby Aug 29, 27,600 wer e still without power , many may bewithout power for days, accor ding to CVPS spokeswomanChristine Rivers.
“Hurricane Ir ene’s heavy rains and winds have washedout r oads, washed away utility poles and whole tr ees,brought down hundreds of lines and knocked out power tomore than 40,000 CVPS customers acr oss the state today .More than 27,600 CVPS customers remain without power atthis time,” Rivers said.
“Flooding and washed out r oads have sever ely af fectedour pr ogress in r estoring power. Our cr ews cannot get tomany a reas i n c entral a nd s outhern Vermont b ecause t heroads are simply gone,” said CVPS Senior Vice President ofEngineering, Operations and Customer Service Joe Kraus.“At this point, r estoration efforts are largely dependent onimproving r oad access. Many customers, especially thosewho know they are in a severely flooded areas, should planto be without power for days.”
“We have tremendous resources at our disposal thanks tocrews from as far away as Texas, but we won’t be able tomake r epairs until r oads ar e r eopened,” said Rivers. “Thewinds may also pick up tonight, and with the ground so sat-urated, even moderate winds are going to continue to cause
more outages.” Rutland County has numer ous flooded r oads. The Otter
Creek has flooded in several locales in both Rutland and Ad-dison counties along with water-covered roads.

McKibbenfrom page 1
from risking arr est, butit's had the opposite ef-fect.
While in jail, McK-ibben made a statementreleased thr oughtarsandsaction.org. “Ithas been a little hot herein central cell block, butnot as hot as it will be ifwe don’t stop this pr oj-ect.”
When asked if hiswife was alright withhis tr oublemaking,McKibben said, “Happi-ly, my wife is the love ofmy life.”
It's obviously impor-tant for the people wholive along the pipelineto stop its constr uction,said McKibben, butburning the tar sands oilwill have a global im-pact. He said the tarsands ar e the second-largest pool of carbonon the planet, and burn-ing them can incr ease
carbon in the atmos-phere as much as 50 per-cent, accor ding to hisgroup's site, tarsandsac-tion.org.
In addition topipeline-adjacent lo-cals, people fr omaround the country havecome in support. Up-staters included a manin the cell next to McK-ibben who was fromIthaca, and McKibben’sseen people fr omRochester as well. Hesaid there's still time tosign up and go to theWhite House in supportof the cause.
The planned pipelinewill stretch 2,673 miles.Oil r eclaimed fr om tarsands in Alberta will bepiped to T exas for r e-finement.
James Hansen, a sci-entist with NASA'sGoddard Institute forSpace Studies, hascalled tar sand exploita-tion “game over” for theclimate, and McKibbentakes the concerns very
seriously.The protest is planned
as a two-week long, sit-in demonstration infront of the WhiteHouse. Rules governingarea use say that in thearea used for the sit-in,pedestrians must stay inmotion and not obstructuse for others.
By planning a sit-in,the intention was to getarrested, accor ding tothe promotional websitetarsandaction.org andthe gr oup's media con-tact Jameson Henn. It'san act of civil disobedi-ence designed to getPresident Barack Oba-ma to reconsider OK'ingthe pipeline.
Because the pipelineis international, it musthave pr esidential ap-proval to be built.
In a July 20 pr ess r e-lease pr eparing f or t heevent, McKibben said,“President Obama canstop this climate killingdisaster with the str okeof a pen.”
Bill McKibben is cuffed at the White House when protesting a planned 2,763-mile oil pipeline connecting Alberta, Canadato Texas.
