“Earth Week” Hiatus

Round Valley Reservoir

I’ll be going off line for “Earth Week” – just too much spin. I get dizzy even thinking about it.

[And don’t miss King Christie’s “Proclamation”!]

Go outside, read a book, and take in a good movie, like this:

At this point of unimaginable threats on the horizon, this is what hope looks like. In these times of a morally bankrupt government that has sold out its principles, this is what patriotism looks like. With countless lives on the line, this is what love looks like, and it will only grow…
–Tim DeChristopher

Tim DeChristopher monkey-wrenched an illegal oil and gas lease auction in 2008, saving 150,000 acres of pristine Utah wilderness from exploitation. He was jailed for 21 months. Celebrate his release from federal prison on April 21, 2013 by joining our screening of the film BIDDER 70 this Earth Day, April 22, 2013.

When:  Monday, April 22 at 7PM sharp
Where: Darress Theatre, 615 Main St., Boonton, NJ 07005

    DELAWARE RIVER BASIN COMMISSION

    Notice of Public Hearing and Business Meeting

    Notice is hereby given that the Delaware River Basin Commission
    will hold a public hearing on Tuesday, May 7, 2013. A business meeting
    will be held the following day on Wednesday, May 8, 2013. Both the
    hearing and business meeting are open to the public and will be held at
    the Washington Crossing Historic Park Visitor Center, 1112 River Road,
    Washington Crossing, Pennsylvania.
    Public Hearing. The public hearing on May 7, 2013 will run from
    12:00 p.m. until approximately 4:00 p.m. Hearing items will include
    draft dockets for withdrawals, discharges and other water-related
    projects, and resolutions to: (a) Adopt the Commission’s annual Budget
    for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2014 and apportion among the
    Signatory Parties the amounts required for the support of the Current
    Expense and Capital Budgets; (b) approve the Fiscal Year 2014-2016
    Water Resources Program; and (c) amend the Commission’s administrative
    agreements with Delaware and New Jersey by the addition to “Category
    F” as defined therein of certain electric generation and co-generation
    facilities. The latter resolution would provide for the state agency’s
    review and decision-making process to be used in lieu of the
    Commission’s for the category of projects consisting of electric
    generation and co-generation facilities that consumptively use in
    excess of 100,000 gallons per day (gpd) of water during any 30-day
    period, when no other aspect of the project, such as a withdrawal or
    discharge, subjects it to Commission review pursuant to the
    Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure and current administrative
    agreements. The public is advised to check the Commission’s Web site
    periodically prior to the hearing date, as hearing items may be dropped
    if additional time is deemed necessary to complete the Commission’s
    review. Written comments on all hearing items will be accepted through
    the close of the May 7 hearing.
    If time allows, the public hearing will be followed by a “public
    dialogue” session, an opportunity for members of the public to address
    the Commissioners on any topic of concern. Comments offered during
    “public dialogue” are not part of an official decision-making record
    of the Commission. In a departure from past practice, the Commission’s
    business meeting on May 8, 2013 will not include a public dialogue
    component.
    Draft dockets and resolutions scheduled for hearing will be posted
    on the Commission’s Web site at http://www.drbc.net 10 days prior to the
    meeting date. Additional public records relating to the hearing items
    may be examined at the Commission’s offices. Please contact Victoria
    Lawson at 609-883-9500, extension 216, with any questions concerning
    these items.
    Business Meeting. The business meeting on May 8, 2013 will begin at
    12:15 p.m. and will include the following items: Adoption of the
    Minutes of the Commission’s March 6, 2013 business meeting,
    announcements of upcoming meetings and events, a report on hydrologic
    conditions, reports by the Executive Director and the Commission’s
    General Counsel, and consideration of items for which a hearing has
    been completed. The Commissioners also may consider action on matters
    not subject to a public hearing.
    Among the items scheduled for consideration on May 8 is Docket No.
    D-1969-210 CP-13 for the Exelon Generation Company, LLC Limerick
    aware river basin commission meeting – what do we need to know?
