Iron County holds hearing on grantto aid storm damage victimsBy RICHARD JENKINS

rjenkins@yourdailyglobe.comHURLEY — The Iron Coun-

ty Board of Supervisors held a

public hearing Tuesday

regarding the county’s commu-

nity development block emer-

gency assistance grant applica-

tion to secure funds for resi-

dents and businesses impacted

by the July 11 storm.Kimberly Gifford, a housing

development specialist with

the Northwest Regional Plan-

ning Commission, explained

the county will be one of the

eight counties under the state’s

declaration of the emergency to

apply for emergency assistance

through the block grant pro-

gram.The grants are a federal pro-

gram ran by the Department of

Housing and Urban Develop-

ment designed to target low

and moderate income areas

and the emergency assistance

program provides assistance to

qualifying communities after a

disaster.The Spooner-based commis-

sion will submit the applica-

tion for the counties and

administer the grant, if it’s

approved.As Iron County is the first

county to move forward with

the application, it will take the

lead on the other counties, Iron

County Emergency Manage-

ment Director Stacy Ofstad

told the Daily Globe.According to Ofstad, it

largely means Iron County will

receive the funds from the fed-

eral government and then dis-

tribute them to the other coun-

ties accordingly.Gifford explained the

funds will be used for a mix of

public and private qualifying

projects.“Iron County will be

requesting approximately $2.3

million in funds. That number

may change, but that’s an

approximate. And that’s to

assist with the following types

of activities: Business assis-

tance, public facility and hous-

ing rehabilitation or replace-

ment,” she said.According to Gifford, the

emergency management direc-

tors in the eight counties have

IronwoodEDC meetsWednesdayWhite Pine generator elimination approved

LANSING — The Michigan Agency for Ener-

gy Thursday said the system support resource

for the White Pine electric generator will be

eliminated within 90 days, saving Upper Penin-

sula electric rate-payers about $7 million a year

through June 2018.The Midcontinent Independent System Oper-

ator, the regional transmission operator that

covers most of Michigan, filed with the Federal

Energy Regulatory Commission to terminate the

SSR designation for the 20-megawatt White Pine

Unit 1 electric generator. The move was made

because of a solution proposed by American

Transmission Company. Upon federal approval,

the SSR will be eliminated within 90 days of

MISO’s filing.“The White Pine SSR payment will be elimi-

nated by late November, avoiding future SSR

costs of potentially $12 million and resulting in

more cost-effective system reliability in the

Upper Peninsula, something for which we all can

be truly thankful in the Thanksgiving season,”

said Valerie Brader, MAE executive director.

“Currently, when the White Pine unit goes

down unexpectedly, as it did frequently during

the summer of 2015, there is a higher reliability

risk. The new solution greatly reduces the risk of

a catastrophic loss of power in the northwestern

U.P. For planned maintenance outages, ATC has

already shown willingness and the ability to

adjust work schedules to protect electric reliabil-

Power group responds to cancellation notice

WHITE PINE — The White

Pine Electric Power Group

released fhe following state-

ment concerning the 90-day

notice canceling the System

Support Resource services of

White Pine Electric Power.“This decision puts Michigan

citizens at risk for a reduction in

electrical reliability within the

Western Upper Peninsula, as

stated in the study used to sup-

port the cancellation. “The MISO study used to

determine the cancellation of

the White Pine Unit 1 System

Support Resource Agreement

did not properly evaluate all of

the scenarios related to

unplanned power outages,

putting the most vulnerable and

marginalized citizens at risk. It

is critical that MISO re-evalu-

ate and properly study all sys-

temic shortcomings in the exist-

ing system and the very real

risks they pose to the citizens of

the state of Michigan. POWER — page 5

Road commission agreesto keep spring flowing

By TOM STANKARDtstankard@yourdailyglobe.com

BESSEMER — The Gogebic

County Road Commission agreed

Monday not to close the Lake

Road spring, after coliform was

detected there. Instead, they decided to put

warning signs by it and see if

Ironwood Township will help test

the quality of the water.The spring is located on the

easement for Lake Road, said

road commission manger Darren

Pionk. On July 29, the Western

Upper Peninsula Health Depart-

ment tested the quality of the

water after the department

received a complaint of an ill-

ness from a person who drank

from the spring following the

July flooding damages to the

Bacterial contamination can

occur when surface waters gain

entry to a drinking water source.

On Monday, Pionk said he

agrees with the health depart-

ment in that people shouldn’t

drink from the spring.“We need to protect the rest of

the public,” he sad. “We have to

secure the sight so no one does

drink from it. My recommenda-

tion is we close it off right now.”

In response, Ironwood resi-

dent Leah Gramitt said the

spring serves as the main source

of drinking water for her and

other people in the area “It’s a really big deal to decide

to shut down someone’s sole

source of water. I would really

appreciate it if the board extend-

ed the decision until more testing

SAXON,Wis. — Aromas of

apple, strawberry and rhubarb

set the mood at the Iron County

Fair pavilion for the annual 4-H

pie auction Sunday afternoon.

Standing behind a table of 28

submitted pies, auctioneer Nolan

Salzmann sold each to the high-

est bidder. Over 100 pie lovers filled the

pavilion to bid. One by one, pies

sold for “high prices,” said county

4-H Youth Development agent

Neil Klemme.The pies were judged prior to

the auction. Lori Gayan Betzold

was awarded the Adult Grand

Champion for her peanut butter

Oreo pie. Betzold said she found the

recipe online and “tweaked it a

little bit.” This was her second

time submitting a pie for the auc-

tion. Betzold watched her pie sell

for $320, one of the highest bids

of the day. The Youth Grand Champion

pie — a traditional apple pie

made by 4-H member Jayme

Harma — sold for $770, easily

the highest bid of the auction.

Harma said she loves to bake

and cook, especially when she

“gets to do it with her grandma.”

Some of the other pie flavors

offered in the fundraising auc-

tion included Almond Joy, Snick-

ers, strawberry rhubarb, peach,

triple berry and key lime. In all, the auction raised

$5,128. Klemme thanked the

community for their support.

“It’s just phenomenal. It

amazes me every year that the

auction gets this big,” he said.
