Sheriff’s Office receives MARCS radios
Sarah Hawley

POMEROY — Just in time for Christmas,
the Meigs County Sheriff’s Office received a
gift which will help the office to better serve
Meigs County.
The Ohio Department of Public Safety,
lead by director John Born, presented Meigs
County Sheriff Keith Wood with nearly
$250,000 in equipment on Thursday afternoon.
Born — along with Colonel Paul A. Pride,
Superintendent of the Ohio State Highway
Patrol, and Brain Castner of the Ohio Emergency Management Agency — presented
Wood with 35 portable radios, 30 Motorola
remote radios and six dash mount radios.
The radios, totaling $244,968 in equipment, were purchased for the department
through funds from the United States Department of Homeland Security.
The radios are compatible with the MultiAgency Radio Communication System
(MARCS).
MARCS helps first responders communicate clearly anytime from anywhere, increasing their capacity in normal and emergency

operations and decreasing response times.
“We are pleased to be able to make this
equipment available to the Meigs County
Sheriff’s Office in support of their efforts
to provide a safer community, and ultimately contribute to a safer Ohio” said John
Born, ODPS Director. “MARCS improves
the availability, accessibility and quality of
communications for first responders in the
state.”
Born also spoke of the importance of
communication tools to first responders. He
noted that the ceremony is not just about
giving the radios, but about giving the opportunity to help save lives through better
communication.
“Safety in the community is one of the
most important things,” stated Sheriff
Wood. He added that communication is vital and something that the department must
have.
“I am excited and the community should

Bikers display Toys for Tots
POMEROY — A total of 154
children in 71 disadvantaged
families will find toys under the
Christmas tree, thanks to area
bikers who had two runs to raise
money to make their toy purchase.
Fund raising for the holiday
project began in May with the Memorial Day Run, and continued
until late summer with a toy run..

Families unable to purchase
toys for their children registered
at the Meigs Cooperative Parish
where their eligibility was established prior to being placed on the
recipient list.
The bikers purchased the toys
spending over $8,000, bagged
and marked them according to
the needs of each family, and then

met at the Cooperative Parish on
Saturday morning where the families came in to claim the bag of
Christmas toys for their children.
Other toys distributed the same
day were some from RACO which
has contributed to the Parish project for several years, and others
were from Meigs County Jobs and
Family Services.

VA Clinic hosts open house, health clinic
Amber Gillenwater

GALLIPOLIS — During
a health/enrollment fair and
holiday open house held on
Wednesday at the Gallipolis
VA Clinic on Upper River
Road, officials with the Huntington VA Medical Center
were on hand to answer questions and promote the clinic
that has now been open in
Gallipolis for over three years.
In addition to free health
screenings, including blood
pressure and cholesterol
checks, as well as flu shots and
pneumonia shots, veterans
were encouraged on Wednesday to enroll for VA care if
they have not done so already.
According to Debbie
Brammer, Public Affairs Officer with the Huntington
VA Medical Center, in the
three years since its opening, the Gallipolis clinic
has grown tremendously,
picking up hundreds of new
patients and reaching out to
veterans in the area.

POMEROY — Discussion of expert witnesses and the
possible recusal of a judge were argued during a pre-trial
hearing in the case against Karen Griffith on Thursday
afternoon in Meigs County Court.
Griffith is charged with 21 counts of cruelty to animals
and three counts of obstructing official business. She appeared alongside her attorney John Lavelle of Athens.
Both obstructing official business and cruelty to animals charges are second degree misdemeanors.
The state was represented at the hearing by Assistant
Prosecutor Amanda Hall and special counsel for the case
Jeff Holland.
During the hearing the state identified Dr. Josh Ervin
as an expert witness retained by the state in the case. In
court discussions, it was stated that Ervin has not previously examined the horses in question and would be utilized to review test results conducted on the animals.
The identification of Ervin as a witness prompted
Judge Steve Story to state that he would recuse himself
since Ervin is married to Story’s niece.
Lavelle stated that the defense would waive any conflict
as a result of the witness.
Holland and Hall argued that while the defense was
willing to waive any potential conflict, the state was not.
Hall asked that a trial date in the case be set, as after
discussion between the parties, it appears there will be no
plea agreement in the case.
Lavelle asked to have a motion hearing date be set instead of a trail date. Lavelle stated that the defense may
filed a motion to suppress evidence.
A motion hearing and trial date will be scheduled at a
later time.
Judge Story gave both sides two weeks to prepare
briefs with regard to the issue of the Judge recusing him
self from the case. The parties were also given 30 days to
file any motions in the case.

host free Christmas dinner

The Gallipolis VA Clinic is located at 323 Upper River Road in Gallipolis behind the Super 8
Motel and next door to the Gallipolis Veterans Service Office.

“It’s going very well. We
originally opened two days
a week and now we’re open
four days a week. We’ve
seen our number grow from
700 or 800 in the beginning
to over 1,300 now, but we

be aware that we are here.
Sometimes veterans don’t
fully understand their eligibility,” Brammer said. “If
they are eligible for care, we
want them to enroll.”
Brammer also spoke on
Wednesday afternoon of the
services that are provided at

the clinic, including a new
telehealth program that allows local veterans to access mental health care and
other services without having to travel to the medical

Not so very long ago the Lutherans down the street had this posted

Wrap your mind around that. None
of us has been enjoined to know about
God, but all of us are called to KNOW
God (Jer. 31:33-34). Though this personal, universal knowledge of God is

that far-away place, called Bethlehem.
Jesus, the One sent by God to be

to be the Messiah of the Jewish people
and the Savior of the world, indeed
was born into our world so we could

the carolers who sing them, get caughtup in the annual frenzy of shopping and

are doing for Him? Don’t think some
money in your church’s offering plate
is sufficient: He knows what you kept
back; besides, what He wants most is
YOU—body and mind, heart and soul.
In the event you don’t get everything
you want for Christmas, remember: it’s
His birthday, NOT yours. He wanted
me to remind you of that. God bless
you, everyone!!!

Radios
From Page 1
The MARCS radios were
purchased with a U.S. Dept.
of Homeland Security grant,
which are made available
to states and are designed
to enhance the capacity of
state and local jurisdictions
to prevent and respond to
incidents. The Ohio Emergency Management Agency,
a division of ODPS, serves
as the state administering
agency for homeland security funds.
Born noted that the
award to the Meigs County

Sheriff’s Office was the
largest single award to any
agency in the state. A total
of $1.4 million dollars was
used statewide for awards
such as this one.
MARCS is an 800 MHz
radio and data network
that utilizes state-of-theart trunked technology to
provide statewide interoperability. The MARCS Program Office is housed within the Ohio Department of
Administrative Services.
Castner explained that
the MARCS radios work
much like cell phones and

will switch to a tower within
reach to allow service in areas outside of the original
area.

Clinic
From Page 1
“This is a primary care
clinic, so we offer primary
care services, but we also
offer some specialty services such as mental health
through what we call ‘teleconferencing,’ and we’re
actually in the process of
putting that in right now,”
she said.
Kathryn Hamlin, who
works in health promotion
through the VA, also spoke
of the new telehealth feature at the Gallipolis location while encouraging all
veterans to determine their
eligibility for local health
care through the VA.
“A lot of times I’m meeting veterans that feel like,

are here for them and all
the services that we have
available,” Hamlin said.
“Services that we don’t
have right here directly,
like mental health services,
we can hook right up with
Huntington and see the
provider without having
to travel there, some educational classes and things
like that. It’s a nice thing
for them to stay in their
community.”
Hamlin
further
reported that the reason for
Wednesday’s open house
was to get information out
to local veterans in regard
to the requirements for the
Affordable Care Act and
the changes coming as a
result of the new health
care law.
“We are just trying to
get the word out and, especially, with the affordable
care act and all of that going on, letting them know
that if they are enrolled in
VA care, that meets the
requirements for having
insurance. You don’t need
anything more,” Hamlin
said.
Also on hand during
Wednesday’s enrollment
fair was Sue Yancy, a homeless outreach specialist,
who, in addition to working in Huntington at the
homeless outreach center
for veterans, will be traveling to Gallia County once a
week in an effort to gauge
the need for services in relation to homeless veterans
in the area.
“My position is to come
to where the veterans are,
so once a week, on Mondays, I’ll be coming to the
Gallia County area to drop
in to some of the agencies,
local hospitals and the
clinic to see if they have
encountered any veterans
who are homeless or at

risk of being homeless,”
Yancy said. “That the key,
that they don’t have to be
homeless yet, but we want
to try to work with them
to do whatever we can to
hopefully keep them in
their apartment or house
to avoid them or their
family members becoming
homeless.”
Yancy reported that as
a part of the homeless
outreach program, social
workers will be made available to veterans of the area
who may need assistance
in relation to legal issues,
substance abuse problems,
or unemployment.
“We have specialists that
will be coming to the Gallia
County area to work with
veterans on working on
their skills, helping them
find jobs,” Yancy said. “So
that is new for our homeless outreach center that
we’re going to start coming to the Gallia County
area.”
She further reported
that, thus far, she has not
seen a great number of
homeless veterans in the
area, but reported that this
may be a result of a lack of
resources in the area and
homeless veterans may be
leaving the area for more
urban locations.
“There are a lot of times
there’s somebody who is
living just one paycheck
away from being homeless, so our goal is to reach
those people before they’re
at risk of losing their
home,” Yancy stated.
Yancy further reported
on the various programs
available
to
veterans
through the outreach center while also stating that
veterans in the area would
be eligible to receive transportation to the Huntington area to their outreach
center where they could
receive food, clothing and
other services. However,
she further reported that it
could be arranged that she
bring such goods to the
area herself for any veteran
in need.
Brammer reported that
this latest push to assist veterans who may be
homeless or in risk of becoming homeless is part
of a goal set forth by the
Veterans Administration to
end homelessness among
veterans in the next two
years.
“The VA has set a goal
of ending homelessness by
2015 and so we are working really hard, from the
Huntington VA Medical
Center side, to reach out
now and identify those
need assistance and those

that may be one paycheck
away from homelessness
and let them know that
we’re there and we have
resources for them,” Brammer said.
Gallia County Veterans
Service Office Executive
Director John Thomas also
reported on Wednesday of
his office’s continued support of the VA Clinic that
is located adjacent to his
office at 323 Upper River
Road in Gallipolis behind
the Super 8 Motel — a
convenient location as veterans wishing to get help
with claims and other information can stop by his
office, while also signing
up for health care at the VA
Clinic.
“As far as the clinic goes,
we support one another,”
Thomas said while reporting that there are approximately 2,430 veterans living in Gallia County, while
approximately 2,311 veterans are currently residing
in Meigs County.
“We are trying to do everything we can to boost
their enrollment numbers
so we can make it more
viable,” he said. “They are
now open four days a week.
They started out at three
days a week and we are
striving to get them open a
full five days a week.”
Overall, Brammer reported that Wednesday’s
open house was a success
as her agency continues
to get the word out about
the location in Gallipolis
to all the local veterans in
the area in the hope that
the clinic can continue to
expand to provide service
to more and more veterans
in Gallia and surrounding
counties.
“We just want Veterans to know that we want
them to either go online,
call the medical center or
come here to the clinic to
find out if they are eligible
for care or not because I
think there are a lot of veterans out there that are not
aware that they are eligible
for care,” Brammer said.
“We want to continue to
grow and expand as we do
the telehealth and provide
more services with the possibility of maybe expanding.”
For more information on
enrolling for VA health care
or for more information on
the homeless outreach program, call the Gallipolis VA
Clinic at (740) 446-3934.
The clinic is open Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays
and Fridays from 8 a.m.4:30 p.m.

Blue Devils split tri-match at home

CENTENARY, Ohio — You win
some, you lose some.
Visiting Belpre came away with a
2-0 team mark, while Gallia Academy
earned a .500 record after beating
Unioto in a wrestling tri-match held
Wednesday night in Gallia County.
The Blue Devils posted a 52-18 victory over the Shermans in their headto-head dual match, but dropped a
41-34 decision to the Golden Eagles

in the other contest. Belpre defeated
UHS in the earlier bouts to wrap up
the unbeaten evening.
GAHS went 15-10 overall in the
two duals, as the hosts went 9-3
against UHS and 6-7 against Belpre.
The Blue Devils won seven matches
by pinfall and also scored two majority decision victories collectively.
Jared Stevens (106), Cole Tawney
(132), Ryan Terry (170), Griffon
McKinniss (182), Anthony Sipple
(220) and John Byus (285) all went
2-0 individually, as each recorded

one pinfall victory.
Isaiah Holley (120), Kaleb Crisenberry (138) and Justin Reynolds
(195) all finished the night with a
1-1 overall mark. Reynolds recorded a pinfall win, while Holley and
Byus both scored a majority decision win apiece.

Cincinnati Bengals’ Carlos Dunlap (96) celebrates with the
crowd after he intercepted a pass for a touchdown at Paul
Brown Stadium on Sunday, Dec. 30, 2012, in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Bengals trying to hold
first place, fill stadium
CINCINNATI (AP) —
The Bengals are trying to
hold onto first place in the
AFC North and fill their
stadium for two final home
games that will decide
their fate.
They’ve got a lot of work
to do in both areas.
The Bengals (9-5) need
to beat the Vikings (4-91) at Paul Brown Stadium
on Sunday to move a step
closer to clinching the division title. They’ve led the
division by at least two
games for most of the season, but it’s down to one
over Baltimore (8-6) with
two games left.
“You’ve got to put all
your cookies in the basket — however you want
to look at it,” safety Chris
Crocker said. “You’re all
in at this point. You’ve really got to win. Just win.
Doesn’t matter how it
looks, just win.”
With two weeks to go,
the Bengals are still in
very good position to
make the playoffs for an
unprecedented third year
in a row. But a 30-20 loss
in Pittsburgh on Sunday
night tightened things and
made a lot of their fans do
a double-take.
The Bengals haven’t sold
out their game Sunday
against Minnesota. Roughly 3,500 tickets remain.
The league gave them a
one-day extension to sell
out and avoid having the
game blacked out on local
television.
They packed Paul Brown
Stadium for the first six

home games. As the playoffs close in, they’ve become a tough ticket to sell.
The loss in Pittsburgh left
a lot of fans with a sense of
doom.
“We’ll go back this week
and play well and everybody will change their tone
and all of a sudden we’ll be
good again,” offensive lineman Andrew Whitworth
said. “That’s kind of how it
goes around Cincinnati for
some reason.”
Whitworth has become
accustomed to playing
in front of a lot of empty
seats at Paul Brown Stadium during his eight
seasons in Cincinnati.
The Bengals have gotten
better at filling the place
in the last few years with
their run of playoff appearances, but aren’t yet a
sure thing at home.
“It’s like I’ve said over
my eight years here: It’s
always been interesting at
times as far as that stuff
goes,” Whitworth said.
“All we can do is continue
to put a winner on the field
and try to prove who we
are and people will come
and support us more and
more, and hopefully that
continues to grow.”
The Bengals are in line
to get the No. 3 seed in the
playoffs, behind Denver
(11-3) and New England
(10-4). They beat the Patriots at Paul Brown Stadium,
giving them the head-tohead tiebreaker if they finish with the same record.

POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — Taking care of the basketball is a huge part
of winning.
The Point Pleasant boys basketball
team committed just six turnovers
Wednesday night as the Big Blacks
cruised to a 71-47 victory over visiting Nitro.
The Big Blacks (2-0) held Nitro (02) scoreless for the opening four minutes of play and lead 6-0. The Wildcats
rallied back and trailed just 14-to-12 at
the end of the first quarter. The PPHS
offense got hot in the second quarter,
putting up 22 points and taking the
36-24 lead into the half.
Following the intermission the Big
Blacks turned up the defensive intensity, holding the Wildcats to five points in
the third period and pushing the lead to
53-29 with eight minutes to play. Both
teams marked 18 points in the finale
and PPHS took the 71-47 victory.
Wade Martin led the Big Blacks with
23 points, followed by Alex Somerville
with 18 and Aden Yates with 10. Brian
Gibbs marked nine points, Nick Templeton had six, while Evan Potter rounded
out the PPHS scoring with five points.
Point Pleasant finished the game
with 21 rebounds, six turnovers and
nine assists. The Big Blacks shot 19of-31 (61.3 percent) from the free
throw line in the triumph. Martin
and Somerville each made a pair of
three pointers to lead PPHS.
Nitro was led by Buck Shepherd with
15 points and J.P. Mawyer with 11. Tyler Barton marked six points, Neal Sallada had five, while Ian Lee and Chris
Klocke each marked three. Josiah Bosley and Jamie Buckalew rounded out
the NHS scoring with two points each.
The Wildcats committed 19 turnovers, had 14 rebounds and shot 9-of-16
(56.3 percent) from the free throw line.
These teams will meet again on
February 18, when the Big Blacks

Buckeyes seek answers on defense as Clemson looms
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Asked
after a recent Ohio State practice if
he was concerned about Clemson’s
passing attack in the Orange Bowl,
coach Urban Meyer all but laughed
out loud.
“Oh, yeah,” he said, shaking his
head. “You think?”
With two weeks left until the Buckeyes take on the Tigers in the Orange
Bowl, Meyer knows that his defense
has to get better. A lot better. And
soon.
Clemson has one of the best passing games in the nation, with Tajh
Boyd in control at quarterback and
Sammy Watkins snagging receptions
downfield.
The 12th-ranked Tigers (10-2) average 502 total yards, 329 through

the air, and 40.2 points per game.
Boyd is tied for 15th in major-college
history with 102 touchdown passes.
Watkins has 85 catches for 1,237
yards and 10 TDs this season.
Granted, No. 7 Ohio State (12-1)
has a potent offense of its own, with
Braxton Miller chewing up yards
with his arm and legs and bruising
tailback Carlos Hyde breaking big
plays on the ground.
But there are troubling signs over
the last month or so that the Buckeyes cannot stop even lesser passers
from piling up stratospheric numbers.
“They have a lot of good athletes,”
All-American linebacker Ryan Shazier said of the Tigers. “This might be
the best passing team we’re going to

face this whole season.”
If that’s true, then it’s no wonder
that a lot of Buckeyes fans are more
than a little queasy.
Callers to sports talk shows, letters
to the editor and those posting on
booster websites are calling for co-defensive coordinators Luke Fickell and
Everett Withers to either be fired or
demoted for what’s happened lately.
In the last four games — relatively
easy wins over Illinois and Indiana,
a one-point victory at Michigan and
a crippling 34-24 loss to Michigan
State in the Big Ten championship
game — the average per game passing line for the opposition is: 31 of 48
for 341 yards and three touchdowns.

No. 22 UMass beats Ohio, 83-71

From Page 5
Cincinnati would clinch a
playoff spot with a win and
Miami losing at Buffalo on
Sunday. They’ll clinch the
AFC North title with a win
and a Baltimore loss to the
Patriots.
If both the Bengals and
Ravens win, it’ll come down
to the final week with Baltimore playing at Paul Brown
Stadium. The winner gets
the division title. The loser
could be eliminated from
playoff contention.
“Honestly, I think we’re
going to win (on Sunday)
and I think Baltimore, they
have momentum and they’re
going to win too,” Crocker
said. “I think that last game’s
going to mean a lot.”
The Bengals reached
the playoffs as a wild-card
team each of the last two
seasons, then played poorly
and lost in Houston in the
first round both times. Getting to host a playoff game
would be a big step.
“There is a lot that can
go on in these last two
weeks,” quarterback Andy
Dalton said. “Nothing is
determined yet. We have
to go out and win these last
two games and everything
else will take care of itself.”
And if they don’t …
“We’ve really got to win
because if we lose this
game, it’s going to be really
ugly,” Crocker said.

ATHENS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio’s wait to
beat a ranked team will continue.
No. 22 Massachusetts remained unbeaten
Wednesday night with an 83-71 over the
Bobcats, who last beat a Top 25 team 15
years ago.
The Minutemen (10-0) shot 61.5 percent
from the field (32 of 53) while Ohio (7-3)
was 28 of 69 (40.6 percent) but made just
five of 24 attempts from beyond the arc
(20.8 percent).
“We had a lot of open looks — I had two
myself, but missed them,” Ohio forward
T.J. Hall said. “We need those shots to beat
teams like UMass, Oakland and other teams
that we have lost to.”
Ohio was playing its first home game
against a ranked opponent since 1997.
Maurice Ndour paced the Bobcats with
16 points, six rebounds and four assists. He
made four of five free throw attempts, de-

spite Ohio converting just 10 of 17 from the
line overall.
“I missed a lot of shots down in the paint,
but defensively, they (UMass) didn’t do anything that could prevent me from scoring,”
Ndour said.
Ohio allowed double-doubles from
UMass’ Maxie Esho (16 points, 10 rebounds) and Chaz Williams (11 points, 11
assists).
The Minutemen led by as many as 19
points.
“They were getting to the basket way too
easy and we did a poor job today defensively,” Ndour said.
Sampson Carter added 14 points, including eight straight in the second half, while
Derrick Gordon scored 13 points and Raphiael Putney added 11 for the Minutemen.
“I thought we played really well offensively,” UMass coach Derek Kellogg said. “We’re

getting a lot of contributions from a lot of
different players.”
Aside from Ndour, the only other Bobcat
to finish with double-digit points was Nick
Kellogg, who made two second half 3-pointers and had 12 points.
“We wanted to make sure that we stayed
connected with him (Nick Kellogg) and
made the game hard on him,” Derek Kellogg
said. “If you have an older team, they can
do a good job of paying attention to scouting reports more so than when you have
younger guys and I think that’s been a good
advantage for us.”
UMass led 45-34 at halftime after being
ahead by as many as 13 points in the first
half. The Minutemen shot 65 percent from
the field in the first half while the Bobcats
shot 42 percent including going just 1 of 11
from beyond the arc.

LeBron James atop newest list of NBA jersey sales
MIAMI (AP) — Reigning NBA MVP
LeBron James was relaxing with his wife
not long ago when he looked around and
was stunned to see someone wearing his
Miami Heat No. 6 jersey.
They were on their honeymoon in Venice.
“It’s kind of crazy, honestly,” James said.
“There’s a ‘wow’ factor.”
James is again on top of the NBA’s list of
top-selling jerseys in the newest rankings
released Thursday. The rankings are based
on overall sales from adidas and NBAStore.com in the fourth quarter of this year,
along with Black Friday and Cyber Monday holiday sales — both of which were

record-setting, the league said.
Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers
is No. 2 on the list, followed by Derrick
Rose of the Chicago Bulls, Kevin Durant of
the Oklahoma City Thunder and Carmelo
Anthony of the New York Knicks.
“If people love the way I play the game
of basketball, love the way I inspire to be
better, that’s great,” James said. “Everytime I see someone in my jersey, a complete stranger, it’s a ‘wow’ factor. For me
to be the No. 1 guy, to have the most jersey
sales, it’s crazy.”
There’s a double-digit percentage growth
in jersey sales from last year, according to
the league.

The Miami Heat’s LeBron James gives a thumbs up before the start of Game 7 of the NBA Finals against the
San Antonio Spurs at the AmericanAirlines Arena in Miami, Fla., on Thursday, June 20.

Defense
From Page 5
Michigan’s Devin Gardner,
suffering through an otherwise
erratic season, hit on 32 of 45
passes for 451 yards and four
scores. His 2-point conversion
pass in the final minute was intercepted by Tyvis Powell at the
goal line to preserve the Ohio
State victory.
“Pass defense surfaced again
and (we had a) lack of contact

on the quarterback,” Meyer said
after that rivalry game. “We just
had some guys running open.”
Then with the Buckeyes riding a school-record 24-game
winning streak and needing a
win to lock up a berth against
Florida State in the BCS national championship game,
Michigan State’s Connor Cook
went off. He came in averaging
177 yards and 1.4 touchdown
passes per game. Against the

But that might be a mammoth

At the same time he made it
clear it wasn’t just one problem
area on defense.
“It’s too many, (not just) one
thing,” he said. “It’s not man coverage, it’s not zone coverage. It’s
all of the above. Then, the pass

LEGALS
OFFICIAL NOTICE
Pursuant to Title IV of the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977, 30
U.S.C. 1201 et seq., the Ohio
Department of Natural Resources, Division of Mineral
Resources Management,
hereby gives notice of the
availability of a CATEGORICAL EXCLUSION CERTIFICATION for an Abandoned Mined
Land reclamation project in the
State of Ohio. The Division of
Mineral Resources Management prepared and the Office
of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement, United
States Department of the Interior, concurred that the activities being undertaken by the
proposed project qualify as a
category of actions which
would not have significant effects on the environment,
either individually or cumulatively. The certification was
submitted by the Division in
application for Title IV financial
assistance in reclaiming and
restoring land and water resources adversely affected by
past mining. A copy of the certification is available from the
Ohio Department of Natural
Resources, Division of Mineral
Resources Management, 280
East State Street, Athens,
Ohio 45701.
The project covered by this action is titled “Spaun Mine
Drain” (MG-Sb-78) and is located northwest of Pomeroy in
fraction 33, Salisbury Township, Meigs County, Ohio.
Drain systems installed on a
previous project to collect Acid
Mine Drainage (AMD) have
failed due to high levels of iron
precipitate. These systems will
be reconstructed to restore
flow and will provide easier access for landowner maintenance of the systems. All disturbed areas will be graded
and revegetated. This project
is 100% federally funded. If
you have any questions or
concerns about the project,
please contact Mr. Jim Bishop
at the Division's address listed
above or at (614) 265-1094.

Letters
to Santa
Cooper Jude, Age 5
Meigs Primary Kindergarten, Mrs. Riffle
I would like a wii u.
Ashton Jude, Age 8,
Meigs Primary Second
Grade, Mrs. Enright.
Dear Santa,
Thank you for giving
me everything I asked
for last year: a train, a
fish, and a pizza. I was
so surprised. Sushi is still
swimming in his tank in
my room. If you celebrate
Jesus’ birthday again this
year by giving presents, I
would like another train
and the Planes movie. My
sister, Mary, wants a Jessie cowgirl doll and hat.
My baby brother, Gabriel,
is too little to ask for anything but I know he’d love
a train too. I think we
have all been good this
year - even though we
don’t share sometimes. I’ll
leave you cookies again if
