The next Dallas Township Zoning Hearing for Chief Gathering LLCs application to build a metering station will be held at 6:30 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 10 in Insalaco Hall at Misericordia University.
Residents lined up to testify at the continued zoning hearing Monday for Chief Gathering LLCs application to build a metering station about 1,300 feet away from the Dallas schools. Prior to the start of the hearing, zoning Solicitor Phil Gelso began to explain the process to residents wishing to speak. After more than half a dozen hearings and five witnesses presented by Chief, residents were prepared to state their case. We know the drill, said resident Diane Dreier. Seven residents offered testimony at the hearing, and their concerns included the proximity of the facility to the four schools, logistics of evacuation if an emergency arose and whether the Transco interstate pipelines age will cause an increase of danger at the site. Chief is proposing to build a
natural gas metering station off Hildebrandt Road about 1,300 feet from the Dallas School District campus. The facility would include buildings to host metering equipment, various valves, a smart pig receiver and other equipment. The purpose of the facility is to measure gas flowing from wells in Susquehanna and Wyoming counties to the 53year-old Transco interstate pipeline to be sent to market. Through hearings that have been ongoing since February, Chiefs plans have changed dramatically. The company agreed to downgrade the site from a

members at a meeting on September 12 that a subcontractor had incorrectly set the track and it needed to be redone. Galicki said the track will need 15 days to set once the rubber is laid before it can be used by the public. Nesbit also mentioned a building inspectors concerns about the high schools compliance with the federal Americans with Disabilities Act compliance. Galicki said materials have been purchased to correct issues in art and science labs and work will be completed soon. The board approved several construction change orders for the high school project that total $48,481. Those change orders cover costs for work, including materials and labor for the track resurface, removal and replacement of curbing at the middle school, eliminating a grass area near bus drop offs, creating a larger building dedication plaque, adding electrical work to cafeteria doors, relocation of a dryer and air handling unit and other work. A formal dedication of the building will be held at 5:30 p.m.

Pear Tree Lane will be closed to all traffic entering or exiting the Dallas School District campus beginning on Sept. 26, officials announced at a meeting Monday. Superintendent Frank Galicki said he and Supervisor of Buildings and Grounds Mark Kraynack met with Dallas Township supervisors, engineer and chief of police and a representative from K&W Engineers on Monday morning to discuss and observe traffic patterns at the fourway intersection where Pear Tree Lane meets the campus from a neighboring development. Galicki said it was evident that traffic at the site, which leads to the high and middle schools, had become difficult to manage in a safe venue. Parents will now need to utilize the entranceway off Hildebrandt Road to access school grounds. Galicki said the middle school student drop-off route will also be revamped. Parents should take the access road and continue towards the high school instead of turning left at the Pear Tree Land intersection. He said parents can drop off students at the lower end of the bus pick-up area. Pear Tree Lane will be closed until officials can further study its effects on campus traffic, Galicki said. Construction is ongoing on campus. Galicki said paving will continue and projects such as the middle school track will need more time to be completed.

DALLAS BOROUGH
Council approved several motions at a meeting Wednesday evening in response to Tropical storms Irene and Lee, which caused significant damage in Dallas Borough in late August and early September. A state of emergency for both events was declared, but Borough Manager Tracey Carr said she felt the borough was wellprepared to weather the storms. The power outages, downed trees and washouts caused by Tropical Storm Irene were issues the borough really never experienced before said Council President Lee Eckert. Borough officials had to manage road closures and flashing traffic lights, but Carr said the response from the Back Mountain Regional Emergency Management Agency was excellent. The Back Mountain Regional Emergency Management Agency had their ducks in a row days in advance, she said. Council approved the purchase of two additional generators in the amount of $800 each. Carr said the borough was able to handle some traffic light outages, like at the five-corners area and near Friendlys restau-
rant on Route 309, but officials were unequipped to maintain power at other areas, such as the Dallas Shopping Center intersection and the intersection of Route 415 and Center Hill Road. We usually borrow some (generators) from the fire department, but in this situation there just werent enough to go around, she said. We want to make sure were prepared if this happens in the future. Carr was also named the boroughs agent to file applications to the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency. She is working to account for all the expenses accrued during the storms in order to recoup costs. Carr is also keeping track of residents who have sustained damage during the storms, but she currently does not have applications for residents to complte. Resident Cathy Casey told council about a water problem at her house that happened before the storms.
She said in early July, soon after she purchased her home on Lackawanna Street, she found there were problems with sewer drainage and water entering her home through her toilet, bathtub and bathroom sink. Casey said a manhole cover in the street outside her house was spewing water five feet high and her yard, which is the reason she purchased the house, is now a swamp. She said the local fire department and municipal authority helped to pump out water on several occasions for hours at a time, but asked council if the situation can be resolved in another way. Council member Robert Edgerton said the borough engineer, Brent Berger of Quad 3 Engineering Group, would visit the site in a few days. In other news, council Hired Mark Joseph Liparela as a part-time police office at an hourly rate of $13.78.

ongoing work being performed by Williams Field Services, LLC. The company is currently clearing trees for right-of-ways to install a portion of its 33 -mile natural gas pipeline within the township. The line will connect to the Transco interstate pipeline, located near the Dallas School District campus, to bring gas from wells in Susquehanna County to market. Residents wanted assurance from township officials that the company was being monitored by the appropriate government regulatory bodies and has all the permits and documentation necessary to perform the work. Resident Chuck Borland asked whether any township officials knew if the state Department of Environmental Protection has been overseeing the tree-clearing and other work. Supervisor Frank Wagner said he had seen a DEP vehicle driving around the area, but wasnt sure if its presence was
Solicitor Thomas Brennan told residents that, because Williams has signed an agreement with the township and has received land development approval from the planning commission, the company is entitled to start the work on the pipeline as far as Supervisors took questions from residents Tuesday about the township is concerned

township officials met with district administrators at the site to observe traffic, and it was clear that before a traffic study can be done the road needs to be closed for safety concerns. Heard a suggestion from Borland about taking advantage of federal and state funds to clean up Trout Brook, a tributary of Toby Creek, which he said is clogged with debris after Tropical Storm Irene and Tropical Storm Lee swept through the region. He said local government workers could also help in the debris removal. Brennan said he is under the impression that municipal workers arent allowed to do such work, but given the state of the area after the two storms, he said other organizations might like the extra help.

A curb side pick-up of flood damaged items from homes and boathouses has been arranged with JP Mascaro and Sons for Monday, said Francis Kopko, Harveys Lake council chairman. Tropical Storm Lee left its mark on much of the Wyoming Valley, including Harveys Lake Borough when the lake water rose to abnormally high levels, flooding many homes, boathouses and the majority of Grotto Pizzas parking lot. To assist residents with their clean-up efforts, Kopko said JP Mascaro and Sons will conduct a curb side pick-up for flood damaged items. Kopko added the service has no limitations, but asked residents to only put out flood-damaged items. This is the second time the
waste disposal company scheduled a pick-up service of this nature in the borough. Just a few weeks ago, the borough arranged for a similar pick-up service for debris from Hurricane Irene. Kopko said it cost the borough about $455 at that time, but was well worth it. The final cost of damages to the borough from the two storms is still being calculated, he said. Residents asked the council if the dam at the lake outlet could be opened the next time the lake rises to such high levels to prevent flooding. Kopko said the dam is controlled by the Department of Environmental Protection, not the borough, and added that council will contact DEP to see if this is an option for future situations. Also storm related, Council approved overtime for Police Chief Charles Musial in accord-
ance with his contract. Kopko said the contract allows Musial to receive overtime pay of $34.19 per hour during emergency situations. Musial applied for the councils approval for $376.09 in overtime pay. In other news Council approved a bid of $55,944 from American Asphalt, Shavertown, for a paving project on Lewis Avenue and Perrego Street. Work will begin soon, weather permitting. Residents Ken Kale, Taft Truska III and Rick Amy were appointed to the boroughs newly-formed Board of Appeals. The Board of Appeals will hear dispute cases of residents not accepting the decision of Pasonick Engineering, the boroughs third party engineer. The next borough council meeting will be held at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct.18 in the municipal building.
The Lake-Lehman School Board approved several personnel changes at a meeting Monday evening, and Superintendent James McGovern commended the community for its aid during recent tropical storms. McGovern said the district received a letter from the Lehman Township Fire Department with accolades for the district and its support of evacuees during the flooding that occurred in early September. McGovern said the school had only between 20 and 25 evacuees at the junior/senior high school, but the American Red Cross prepared the schools gym with more than 300 cots for families in the flood plain to utilize. He said once administrators got word of the seriousness of the situation, officials pleaded for help on the districts Facebook page. Within 15 minutes, we had 55 volunteers, said McGovern. For three days, the district maintained a 24-hour staff to help those in need during the flooding caused by remnants of Tropical Storm Lee. Its a testimony to the people in our community, he said. McGovern also told the board and the public that a week lost due to the aftermath of Tropical Storm Irene in late August would not be forgiven by the state Department of Education.

(Superintendent Jim) McGovern also told the board and the public that a week lost due to the aftermath of Tropical Storm Irene in late August would not be forgiven by the state Department of Education.

MOMENTS IN TIME
By Samantha Weaver It was noted American wit Groucho Marx who made the following sage observation: Theres one way to find out if a man is honest - ask him. If he says Yes, you know he is a crook. When the city of Los Angeles was founded, it was given the name El Pueblo de Nuestra Senora de los Angeles de Porciuncula, which translates to The Town of Our Lady of the Angels of Porciuncula. Back then, in 1781, there were just 52 settlers to start what is now the second most populous city in the country. When speaking of dead languages, Latin is the one that probably comes to mind most often. Its not quite dead, though; its the official language of Vatican City. Those who keep track of such things say that a professional ballet dancer goes through about 130 pairs of toe shoes in a single year. The yo-yo became popular in the United States after it was marketed by Donald F. Duncan Sr., a businessman from Chicago, but he didnt invent the toy. In 1928, Duncan was on a business trip to San Francisco when he saw Philippine immigrant Pedro Flores, who had gotten financing to manufacture the yo-yos and had trademarked the name, demonstrating how to use the toy. Duncan realized that the toy had the potential to be a huge success, so he paid Flores $5,000 for all the rights. Incidentally, the name yo-yo means come-come in the native language of the Philippines. If youre like the average American, showers account for nearly one-third of your home water use. Thought for the day: Any reviewer who expresses rage and loathing for a novel is preposterous.

MOMENTS IN TIME
The History Channel On Oct. 9, 1635, religious dissident Roger Williams is banished from the Massachusetts Bay Colony by the General Court after speaking out against the right of civil authorities to punish religious dissension. Williams established a settlement called Providence in Rhode Island, open to those seeking freedom of conscience. On Oct. 6, 1866, in Indiana, the Reno Gang carries out the first robbery of a moving train, making off with $10,000. This new method of sticking up moving trains in remote locations low on law enforcement soon became popular in the American West. On Oct. 3, 1917, the U.S. Congress passes the War Revenue Act, increasing income taxes to raise money for the war effort. A graduated tax system was introduced, with rates starting at 1 percent and rising to 7 percent for taxpayers with income above $500,000.

Mark Van Etten, president of the Dallas Fire & Ambulance Association, said tropical storms Irene and Lee were the first regional emergencies the Back Mountain EMA has handled since The Back Mountain Commu- its inception.
By SARAH HITE shite@mydallaspost.com
Partnership chairman Jim Reino Jr., of Kingston Township, said he spoke with state Sen. Lisa Baker, R-Lehman Township, and devised a plan to apply for a gaming grant, state funds generated from fees assessed at licensed local gambling facilities to enhance host communities, to build a centrally-located command center for the regional EMA in the event of future emergencies. Reino suggested the center also contain supplies, such as generators, sandbags and water pumps, available for use when municipalities need such items. He said it could also contain a meeting room for the partnership, which currently meets at Misericordia University. On the Sunday Irene hit, the only way out of the Back Mountain was through the rock cut (on the North Cross Valley Expressway), said Reino. I think this (command center) would come under a safety clause. Partnership member Al Fox, of Jackson Township, said the center should be located in an area that can expand in order to accommodate other potential regionalization efforts. The partnership is currently looking for more information about a police regionalization study. Were not looking to build a Taj Mahal, said Reino. Were just looking to build a functional supply depot to hold joint meetings to help instill the cooperation we have now and mergers that may take place in
the future. The partnership has until the end of the year to apply for a gaming grant. Joe Chacke of NEPA Alliance said the application would require an architects and engineers plans for the project. In other news, the partnership Discussed municipal contributions to the Dallas School District D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) program. Partnership member Kathleen Sebastian, of Kingston Township, said the cost for the program would be split between municipalities and the school district. Dallas Township, Kingston Township and the district would be responsible for 25 percent, or about $3,000, of program costs, and Franklin Township and Dallas Borough would need to chip in 12.5 percent, or $1,500, each. Sebastian also said Kingston Township D.A.R.E. Officer Frank Ziegler would offer his assistance in the creation of a program in the Lake-Lehman School District, which would cost about $7,000 to begin. Announced that a meeting on a proposed police regionalization study offered by the Governors Center for Local Government Services has not yet been confirmed. Members are hopeful the study presentation will be held during the October or November meeting of the Back Mountain Community Partnership. Advanced registration is not required to attend the open house, but residents who have questions may call the Hunlock Creek office at 477-3752 or Tunkhannock at 836-4777.

Wyoming Area gridders who spent most of the previous week cleaning up from the historic flooding that devastated their hometown came to Lake-Lehman to play football last Friday night, taking home a 43-10 victory. The game had originally been scheduled to be played at Wyoming Area but was moved to Lehman because of the massive flooding throughout the West Pittston and Exeter areas. Last year, in a game at Lake-Lehman, the Knights rallied from a 26-0 deficit and beat Wyoming Area, 42-39. The Warriors scored twice in the final 75 seconds of the first half and then decisively closed out a victory over the Black Knights. Nick OBrien led the charge for the Warriors, spending most of the game at quarterback but also lining up at tailback for a few drives. At the end of the night, he figured in on five of the Warriors six touchdowns, finishing with 218 yards and four scores on the ground while also passing for 64 yards and another score.

Other residents, including 17year local firefighter Maureen Oremus, of Franklin Township, said the potential for mass evacuation logistics of the nearby schools would create a hazardous situation of its own. Oremus, who works for the district and has two daughters attending Dallas schools, said according to her emergency responder guidebook, a spill or leak at the proposed Chief site would cause for an evacuation within a half mile in all directions, and a fire would cause for the evacuation of residents and buildings within one mile in all

She said there are just three country roads that lead to the Dallas School District complex, and the potential for panic among parents could cause the situation to get out of control and hinder the response of firefighters. Considering the fact that the school lies within 1,400 feet of the proposed metering station, thats very much a large concern to (first responders) because you would be having the first responders going into what we deem the hot zone, and that is the last thing you would ever do in any kind of hazardous materials incident, said Oremus. Residents will continue to testify at the next hearing, and then Chief will be given a chance to prepare a rebuttal case.

Residents still question why the company needs to build its tap-in site near the district campus, which houses approximately 3,000 students plus faculty and staff. Barbara Fleming, of Kingston Township, said shes worried about the safety of her three daughters, who attend Dallas schools. She was concerned about the oft-talked about pipeline integrity management program which several Chief witnesses said would contain the highest standards for pipeline safety at this location. Fleming said the federal government doesnt regulate this program to ensure gas companies are following the program.
Even though Chief has given us their word that theyre going to follow that to the highest standards, that doesnt give me the warm and fuzzies because theres nobody following up on them, she said. Human nature: when nobodys looking, people dont always do the right thing. Chief attorney Ken Komoroski asked Fleming and most witnesses who testified what Chief can do as a company to address residents concerns. He asked Fleming whether ensuring the pipeline integrity management program is being followed by Chief and monitored by an outside party would decrease her apprehension for the project. It would help, but I dont think anything will make me feel comfortable with that type of activity going on . My children mean more to me than my own life, she said.

His findings were that property values in two communities, Brookhaven Borough and Middletown Township, were unaffected by the approximately 50year-old Spectra gas pipeline running through them. Tomchak, who maintained his real estate license from 1984 through 1986 and is very familiar with the area Coyle studied, said there is no comparison between son Piatt, a curling enthusiast who recently attended a clinic in Canada with student members.
