tNlAl VA.. STATE LXBRAOT rxCHUOUO 19t VA* 123219 Volume XXVI, Number 38 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA • THURSDAY, JULY 31, 1975 FIFTEEN CENTS Front Royal is home for zoo animals By PEKAY PETTUS ZEBRAS grazing on the slopes of the Blue Ridge and Baetrian camels wandering in and out of what used to be a bull barn have caused some motorists to leave skid marks on the pavement of Route 522, south of Front Royal. But these are among the more ordinary animals, or at least something most people will recognize, in residence at the National Zoo’s Conservation Center. Now what if some of those tourists were to see a scimitar horned oryx, an Australian Rhea, a maned wolf or a crab eating fox? All of these animals have been brought to Warren'-’ County to the National Zoo’s breeding farm. They have become “rare and endangered species” as wild places throughout the world are timbered out or plowed under for conversion to farmland, which in turn is consumed by suburban sprawl. In early 1973, the National Zoo bought 2,800 acres of the former U.S. Army Remount Station, whicH had been established in 1909 as a place to breed horses and mules for the cavalry and was then later converted, in 1948, into a beef cattle research center, operated by the Department of Agriculture. The Warren County conservation center was established by the National Zoo as a place “to breed rare and endangered mammals, birds and reptiles and to conduct research on the behavioral physiology of these species so that they can be better managed in captivity,” according to curator-incharge Christen Wemmer. The old remount station is nearly perfect for what the zoo wanted. There is plenty of space, both open grassland and woodland, which permits 35 to 50 acre paddocks for most species, as well as existing barns for shelter and numerous outbuildings for everything from storage to administration. Not only were the animals lucky when the Zoo bought the old remount station; Curator Wemmer lives in the spacious house that once served the commanding officer and other staff members also live in turn-of-the-century twostory stucco houses, once officers' quarters, all in a park - like seating under elm and sycamore trees. THE NATIONAL zoo was anxious to establish a breeding farm because it is becoming increasingly difficult to obtain animals in the wild. Government restrictions have made it difficult to import wild animals to this country and the animals themselves are becoming harder to find. Even zebras, which can be seen in most zoos or commercial wildlife exhibits as well as in what seems to be .great quantity in Africa, are endangered, Wemmer said. "All wild animals are endangered, it's just a question of degree, " he said. Habitat destruction, perhaps the major reason that animals are threatened with extinction, is happening all too quickly around the world. Young animals raised at the conservation center will be sold or traded to other breeding centers, while animals beyond reproductive age will be given to zoos that, can’t- afford the space and commitment for breeding programs of their own, Wemmer said. The forty-some animals now at the conservation center are mostly hooved stock, such as zebras, camels, scimitar horned oryx, -Pere David’s deer, Eld’s deer, bongo antelopes. Hooved stock is easier to care for, and the zoo staff wanted to keep that in mind as they got the program established. They don’t need to be kept inside during the winter, or rather they adjust t fairly well to the Virginia climate; they don’t need much food since tlmy graze or brouse for themselves; they’re easier to clean up after than meat eaters, and they’re easier to keep up with, most of them, according to Leo Slaughter, who is in charge of the animal operation at the conservation center. That last aspect is important to Slaughter. Every day, he has to account for every animal of every species in his care. That s not so hard with the camels, who tend to stay inside the barn away from the flies during the day, or the zebra that graze in the open. But bongo antelopes or Eld’s deer, shy creatures that prefer to stay in dense thickets, can be a problem. “USUALLY I. take a couple of boys and we get out and hoof it through the woods,” he said. They keep working the thicket until they’ve flushed each animal. ‘‘But it’s hard to see a bongo, they weren’t even discovered until some time in the twentieth century.” Slaughter makes his rounds of the park every day, kind of playing safari in the Blue Ridge, using a U.S. surplus jeep for his ‘‘land rover.” ‘‘The biggest part of this job is getting out of the jeep,” he says wryly. Each paddock is entered by at least a double set of chain link gates. So it’s drive up to the first gate, stop, get out and unlock, drive through, stop, lock behind you, unlock the next gate, drive through. . .That’s where the day goes...” But Slaughter says the biggest part of the job so far has been putting up the fencing. So far, there are more than four miles of chain link fencing eight feet high with a metal rail along the bottom. That’s for the larger paddock. The wolves, for instance, are contained in smaller yards. That fence is not only eight feet high with several strands of barbed wire along the top, but extends several feet into a ditch in the ground which is then filled with concrete. Slaughter and other zoo staff members are worried that indigenous, and one would assume non-endanger See Page 12 Tractor returned before owner knew it was gone A STOLEN tractor was recovered and three suspects apprehended before the tractor owner ever knew the implement had been taken Sunday. Trooper J. A. Watson recovered the property, a Sears tractor belonging to Mrs. Margaret Smith of Flint Hill. The officer noticed a black 59 Ford pickup traveling west on Route 211 about 11 p.m. with the tractor protruding from the back. Investigation revealed Mrs. Smith as owner and William Michael Foster of Flint Hill along with two juveniles were charged with grand larceny of the machine. The truck was confiscated for transporting stolen property. Assisting Trooper Watson were Trooper C. A. Moore, and deputies Ronnie Hawkins and Martin Orfilia. James Rodney Hollis, a 23year-old white male, was apprehended Monday night near Viewtown as a fugitive from Delaware. Information from that state led Troopers C. F. Gregory and J. A. Watson to the Viewtown area where Hollis was taken into custody. HOLLIS was charged as a fugitive and is wanted in Wilmington for larceny of checks and second degree forgery. Investigation continues with regard to similar charges in Virginia and in Baltimore. Hollis was incarcerated in Rappahannock County iail Monday night and transferred to Fauquier Jail Tuesday. He is being held on $5000 bond. U

ONE OF the nation s leading producers of canning supplies sent out a long press release this week telling about how their plant has been working fullspeed to try and meet the national demand for jar lids. They've been turning out three million caps and lids a day, seven days a week, and a company spokesman expressed surprise that no one is able to find them at the stores. Similar accounts have been heard from other manufacturers. and a few officials in Washington have issued statements attesting to their investigations into the situation, and affirming the manufacturers' claims. Then where are tne nos. * recent New York Times article [with a Culpeper dateline, incidentally told of the frustrations of housewives all over the nation in their quest for jar lids, and of how . in the meantime. garden produce with an estimated value Chat staggers the imagination is going to waste. What's going on here? In the midst of all the protestations of innocence, we've been told by a merchant in an adjoining county that he readily acquires jar lids through a sort of “black market" arrangement, and that he’s using them as a merchandising come - on. realizing their scarcity. PARDON US for being cynical, but after all those garden - fresh vegetables are rotted and gone, we wouldn’t be surprised by revelations of scandal and profiteering. There have simply been too many instances in such a wide range of industries for the public to expect anything but the worst. We hope we’re wrong, but let it be said that we won’t be surprised if eventually some Congressional committee or some Ralph Nader group comes up with shocking and disgusting tales of skullduggery and profiteering, at the expense of average Americans . There have been doom-say - ers among us in recent years, predicting the demise of the traditional American system, and its replacement by whoknows-what. If the system does fail—and who can predict the future—it’ll be because of the •worms who eat at it from the inside, and not from any external cause.

Ski area developer explains plans Editor: Your news account in the July 24 edition, pertaining to the Rappahannock Ski Area, contained some very misleading statements which I would like to correct. For instance, on page 2 in the paragraph starting with, “Newbill Miller pointed out...,’’ in the next to the last sentence, your reporter stated. “That would mean all 1,500 lots could be filled with trailers all the time.’’ Your paper made a verbal increase of tenfold. The Special Use Permit request is for up to 150 recreational vehicles at any one time, not 1.500 as you stated. Moreover, there will not be 1.500 lots. Since we have not made application to subdivide, there can be no lots. The 1.500 purchasers would share in the ownership of the entirety, they would be tenants in common, each purchaser would have one undivided interest. Since no purchaser is entitled to any specific portion of the property , there could be no subletting (or any individual construction for that matter). There were also several other matters in the account that should be viewed in the context of both meetings, as well as several omissions of pertinent facts winch would have helped to clarify our position. These hearings have been difficult for me as an attorney since I am inclined to approach things in a legalistic manner. However. 1 can well understand the concern of the people of Rappahannock County regarding the use to be made of the ski area, particularly if they are lead to believe that ”1.500 lots could be filled with trailers all the time.” I have tried without any apparent success to keep the issue at the hearings confined to the specific matter in question, i.e., the request for the placement of up to 150 vehicles on the property . This is the sole req^iest. but the preponderance of irrelevancies and exaggerations have clouded this is sue. The property has a prior use as a recreational resort under Article 7 of the Zoning Ordinance and therefore any of the other recreational uses contemplated (swimming, tennis, horseback riding) are permissible, in my opinion. In fact, I have serious doubts whether a Special Use Permit to have recreational vehicles on the property is even required under this Article. Furthermore, I believe that there are other aspects of the Zoning Ordinance which would also negate the necessity for a permit. However, 1 have no intention of becoming involved in any confrontation concerning these vehicles, and have made it a condition in our contract with the present owners that this matter be resolved favorably. And I wish to reiterate what I have said several times before, that I have no connection with the present owners and that I do not intend to be in the middle of any dispute concerning the property. Therefore, should the Zoning Board decide not to issue the Special Use Permit. I, personally, do not intend to press further for its issuance. I did object to refiling the plan under Article 128 because I did not believe that it could be legally filed under that Article, and the Board has since concurred; and I have therefore filed an amended request under Article 7, submitting to the guidelines of Article 12B. If Article 7 is applicable, then Article 13 of the Ordinance is automatically applicable despite the fact that the Board insisted that I comply with its terms. One of these terms, Article 13-2. states “Following the zoning for any such use or issuance of a Special Use Permit for any such use, and prior to the issuance of any Building Permit for any use identified under this article, a detailed plan of development shall be submined to the Administrator.” Jumo/ i&ributf: CEMETERY MEMORIALS CLORE FUNERAL HOME ► “The Home of Thoughtful Service" PUORE US-2341 CULPEPER FAI'QI'IER LIVESTOCK kith ivi^e1 i vc Marshall. Va 22115 354-4*61 364-4871 STATE GRADED FEEDER CATTLE SALE AUGUST S 2:00 p.n. Horse Auction Sat., August 9, 1:00 p.m. me Rouie »» Hjwwxineii one mil* «*a of A I presume this to mean that the County did not want any applicant to spend the thousands of dollars that such a plan would necessitate without the assurance that a Special Use Fermit would follow. My sole purpose at the hearings was to delineate and describe the areas on a map which we had prepared to show the exact areas, and the acreage thereof, that were going to be used for the recreational vehicles. By taking this stand I was accused of trying to conceal what I was about, which is not the case. My intended use of the entire parcel and the facilities on it are not a secret, but I feel that many of the questions concerning the property were irrelevant to the hearing. Likewise, I did not feel that the By-Laws of the Owners’ Association and other pertinent papers were a proper part of the Special Use Request, although I have no objections to anyone in the County going through my file to read the proposed By-Laws, Articles of Incorporation, and other pertinent organizational papers. In fact, I have offered them to several people in the County. These papers concern the internal affairs of the business, and to make them a part of the application would deprive us of any discretion in running our business. The proper course of action for the County to follow, in my opinion, since the County has the duty of protecting the health and welfare of the people, would be to attach such conditions as it deems necessary to the Special Use Request, and then if the conditions are not met, revoke the permit. I have voiced no objection to having several of the matters brought out at the hearings included in the conditions, among them being (1) the tying of the Special Use Permit to the continued use of the skiing facilities; (2) having someone from the County sit on the Board of Directors of the Property Owners’ Association so that the County would be aware of the activities of the owners; (3) some sort of licensing fee to assure the County additional revenue for any burden on existing facilities; and (4) a limitation of 1,500 interests. With respect to No. 4 above, a limitation of 1,500 interests, we decided upon this figure because we need enough dues-paying members to support the skiing facilities wicnout oeing dependent upon tavorable skiing weather. Also, the facilities that are presently there have in the past and will support 1,500 plus skiiers. I realize that owner-members have families and might bring guests, and this increases the number of persons that could use the area. But all such recreational areas are based upon percentage use at any particular time. We must consider that not all of these purchasers are going to be skiiers, and of those who are, not all members of the family will ski, and not all skiiers would ever likely plan to be present on the property at any one time. Besides, being private, the number of skiiers to be drawn from is finite, whereas a public ski slope draws from an unlimited population. Many 18-hole golf course clubs, in order to be financially viable in today’s market, average 1.500 playing members who may in turn bring family and guests, although only a small proportion erf the 1.500 members could ever be accommodated on the golf course in any one day. Granted there are extenuating circumstances where you do have an overflow of people, but this is why a club has by-laws, so that they can regulate the use of their club for the benefit of all. But there are also other factors that regulate the use of the premises, such as the Special Use Permit for 150 recreational vehicles. And even if the County approves the Special Use Permit, we cannot let these campers on the property until the Board of Health issues its Permit. Moreover, State Health Permits for the operation of campgrounds and pools and restaurants don’t permit the number of persons using those facilities to exceed the number allowed in the permits, which permits are based upon the health accommodations that have been approved. The legal title to the property, after all the interests are sold, will reside in two Trustees, of which I am one. The Board of Directors of the Property Owners’ Association will run the property. I can’t guarantee what the Board of Directors will do if they should eventually decide to vote me out of the responsibility of management, but it appears to me that if you have 1,500 people with a proprietary interest in the land, that there would be among them a large enough number with a pride of ownership to control the Board of Directors. There is no way to assure what people are going to do in the future. This is true of any organization or group. But whatever they might decide to do they would have to do it within the confines of local, state and federal laws. witn regard to tne use to be made of the roads, I don’t think it is fair to suggest that the County is going to be faced with 150 vehicles, or a large part thereof, going in and out every day. That would presuppose that these gas eaters and the people who own them are constantly on the move. This is not a public campground, it is doubtful that most of the skiing owners would have campers whereas public facilities draw from an unlimited source of such vehicles. Further, all I can do is guide myself by the Ordinance that I am supposedly under. This is commercial property under Article 7, and Article 7 states, “This zone should be equated to major transportation roads or industrial areas.” Finally, in order to make the facility available to the residents of Rappahannock County so that they don’t have to pay the high ownership costs, we propose to establish a special membership for these people so that they would not have to purchase an interest. But this is not enough incentive to make someone come to the hearings. Likewise, it is not enough that this resort area would have to be of some economic value to the community by way of business and jobs. As is usual in matters of this type, primarily those who are opposed speak out. Donald Weil Front Royal GUEST PREACHER The Rev.

Vepco power lines one step closer FAUQUIER County no longer has any control over the construction and location of Vepco’s proposed powerline route through the county, ruled Circuit Court Judge Rayner V. Snead on July 24. Judge Snead issued an order from the Fauquier Court house in favor of Vepco in the giant power company’s four-year-old suit against the county, because a new state law passed just last year retroactively took away the county’s right to approve utility lines. Attorneys for the county practically conceded this point to Vepco, but argued that the legal provisions of the new state law were not met because the county was not asked by the State Corporation Commission to comment on the powerline route. Judge Snead dismissed this argument, viewing the county’s testimony at the SCC’s hearings on the powerlines as ample opportunity for the county to make comment. Fauquier Commonwealth's Attorney Charles Foley and special counsel L. Lee Bean of Arlington argued this technical point in order to delay Judge Snead’s action of the Vepco suit until the Virginia Supreme Court hears the county’s appeal of the SCC action that permitted the construction of the 500 kilovolt powerlines from Mount Storm, W. Va. to the North Anna Nuclear power plant in Louisa County, Va.

Weakley, Owner TERMS: Cash Lunch will be served JOHN WALKER JENKINS AUCTIONEERING SER. Sperryville, Virginia 22740 987-8211 WITH Judge Snead’s ruling the opponents to the Vepco powerlines have lost another battle against the giant power company. In May, the SCC approved the power lines, and last month the Commission refused to reconsider its ruling at the request of the Culpeper League for Environmental Protection. The Fauquier Supervisors and the Rappahannock and Culpeper Leagues for Environmental Protection have all appealed the SCC ruling to the State Supreme Court. The Rappahannock League has also asked the court to stay construction of the powerlines until the court makes a ruling. The Fauquier Supervisors have also authorized Bean to request a stay of construction, but has not because he wanted to see how Judge Snead would rule. Bean also wants to discuss with the Supervisors the question of posting a bond when requesting a restraining order against Vepco. The county does not need to post a bond, but Bean wants to protect the county against a possible suit for damages if the Supreme Court rules in favor of Vepco after delaying construction. The state high court ruling could take up to a year. Bean, Foley and the Supervisors are expected to discuss the bond question and the possibility of also appealing Judge Snead’s ruling at the Board’s meeting on August 14. So far, the Supervisors have only allocated $10,000 for the powerline battle. VEPCO has already started to file condemnation proceedings in Fauquier Circuit Court for those lands to be passed by the powerlines in Southern Fauquier. A Vepco spokesman said the power company plans to construct the lines from the proposed Morris - ville sub-station to the North Anna nuclear plant first. These lines, however, also have to be approved by the Nuclear Regulatory Agency, which has plans to hold a public hearing in Washington, D.C., sometime in August. Vepco filed suit against the Fauquier Supervisors in 1971 when the Supervisors refused to rule on Vepco’s request to permit the powerline construction until the SCC made its ruling. At that time a county with a Master Plan had the right to permit construction of utility routes. Judge Snead also deferred action on the Vepco suit until the SCC took, action. After three years of hearings and arguments, the SCC ruled in favor of Vepco in May. Butin 1974, the General Assembly and the Governor approved an amendment to Section 15.1-456 of the State Code that took away a county with a Master Plan’s right to permit powerlines, and gave it all to the SCC. The law, however, stipulates that 8 Track Tape Cartridges GOOD SELECTION $1.97 and $2.97 BRADFORD’S Flint Hill Phone: 675-3593 the county has to be asked by the SCC to comment on the impact of the powerlines on the Master Plan. This was not done, argued attorney Bean, nor could have been done, because the law went into affect after the SCC hearings were concluded. Consequently, the law is not retroactive, said Bean. JUDGE SNEAD and the Vepco attorneys did not agree. Attorney Joseph Spivey argued the SCC record was “replete” with mention of Fauquier’s Master Plan and the proposed powerlines. Even though there was testimony regarding the Master Plan, admitted Bean, there was no formal request by the SCC for a comment by the Board of Supervisors. Judge Snead ruled that even with no request made by the SCC, the opportunity for the Supervisors to comment did exist. Judge Snead ordered the Vepco suit “ended” in favor of the power company, because the approval of the powerline route is at the state level. The attorneys made no more arguments. Judge Snead had informed them of his decision the day before, and the final court proceedings were basically for the record. Only two of the citizens against the powerlines, and one in favor, attended the court session. □ Majorettes of all sizes with colorful uniforms paraded at Sperryville last week including this small one.

The addition would be approximately 30 x 19 feet and would use a strip of land purchased from Thomas Massie. Mr. Massie was present for the meeting to assure the council that he did not object to the construction. The building presently runs to within a foot of the property line and would do so with the addition. Though the working space will be enlarged at the Bank, no additional employees are anticipated, said C. J. Miller, the firm’s president. Another matter which confronted the council was the repair of a rock wall bordering the property of Miss Annie Miller Almond. Portions of the wall have given away and must be reconstructed. Miss Almond had objected to the type of wall which had been suggested for the area and wished the old one repaired rather than a new and different one. An agreement was reached with a motion for the reconstruction of the wall at a cost of roughly $305, half to be paid by the town and half by Miss Almond.

Front Royal is home for zoo animals From Page 1' ed, local ground hogs could easily bore under the regular chain link fence and thus leave a means for the smaller animals, like the wolves, to escape. But groundhogs aren’t the only local species that trouble Slaughter. He takes special watch over the hooved stock when there are young in the field. “A Great Horned Owl or a hawk could pick up the babies easy. So could a fox or a stray dog, which could dig under the fence into the paddocks. We’ve seen Bobcats on the place. But not inside the enclosures,” he said. If Slaughter notices an injured animal while he’s making his rounds he has to decide whether it is worth the effort to capture and handle the animal in order to treat it. “It might take six men and three days to catch one of the Eld’s deer. And in tlffe meantime, the chase would probably aggra vate most injuries,” he said. LEO SLAUGHTER is careful about not harrassing the animals. He pointed out how the Eld’s deer became excited and dashed toward the chain link fence as the jeep made a leisurely tour of the paddock. ‘‘They say animals can’t tell, but they know when you're trying to take a picture of them. Even the zebras, and they’re pretty easy-going, Know you re pointing something at them and staring at them. And they don’t like it.” Another of Leo Slaughter’s worries is fire. The grazing land is kept mowed throughout the growing season. “If we let this grass get high and we had a couple of dry weeks, somebody could just flick a match and those fields would go,” he said. But keeping the fields mowed presents another set of problems.

We have to watch until all the young in one paddock are on their feet before we mow. But the real problem with mowing is that it needs to be done when at the same time we cut hay.” The Conservation Center is departmentalized. That is, Slaughter may run the animal operation, but that is separate from the farming operation, which is separate from the maintenance operation. The farming operation produces about 300 tons of hay a year, enough to feed all the animals at the breeding center as well as all the hoof stock at the zoo in town. The maintenance staff not only keep the yard grass mowed and the equipment operating but make the special gates that have helped to convert cow barns into camel quarters and have even invented a watering trough that won’t freeze over and drains by itself. Most of the animals, even those from tropical habitat, can adapt to living in the Virginia climate, Slaughter said. The problem with animals that have come from warmer areas is that they breed all year round. Slaughter and the zoo staff have to be sure that breeding is timed so that the young will be born during milder weather. *'Of course, they need some shelter during the winter, and we haven't really been tested b> snow yet. There was snow last winter, but we haven't had several days of snow, then drifting and then a freeze. We don't know what will happen. Maybe the snow would drift along the fence and freeze and the animals could walk up and over or the predators could come in." "No. we haven't had to face that." Leo Slaughter said. "But. 1 can lie awake and think of the problems were gonna have... ALTHOUGH Virginia winters can't be controlled, the Conservation Center stall has tried to match each species to the paddock they have been assigned. “Those that we know like warmer weather, we've given them pastures on slopes with southern exposures. \ow Here David s deer like to wallow in the muck, so they got a paddock with a stream and a low swampy place. The bongos got a forested area, with a lot of low underbrush as well. These animals could live in a situation even if it's not the kind of setting they prefer. They'll live, but they’ll be especially frightened, skittish, prone to getting hurt and they might not breed. More exotic animals are scheduled to come to the Conservation Center later in the year, Matschi tree kangeroos from New Guinea, red pandas and marbled cats, flat headed cats and clouded leopards, all from Southeast Asia, an area of forests that will be logged in the future, Christen Wemmer said. Raising wild animals is not like farming with cows, goats or domesticated stock. “You have to take certain precautions with any animals. Any farmer knows you don’t crowd bulls or you may wind up with a dead one. These kind of precautions are different with each species. We don’t have all the answers. That’s what we’re trying to learn out here. But we’ve had experience with related things, so we’re in a position to make an educated guess.” MARY McCOMAS, secretary for the Conservation Center, transferred to the “zoo” from the Department of Agriculture. She’s doing the same i, kind of work for Wemmer she did for her last boss, so she claims the transition has been smooth. But one aspect of her job changed, the spelling became more difficult. So she’s added two books to her desk top collection, a German dictionary and a three-volume set, “Mammals of the World.” □ COOK OUT There will be a cook out Friday evening, August 1 at 7 p.m. at the home of Miss Catherine Carter.

Rappahannock debate Nuclear facts vs. emotional fears By MARK HELMKE AN ESTABLISHED technocrat rjid an erstwhile politician agreed that nuclear energy is dangerous, at the Nether’s Community School’s sixth seminar on alternative power sources at the Rappahannock County Elementary School Friday night, July 25. But the erstwhile politician was angry about his contention that nuclear energy was being shoved down the throats of an unwitting populace who could not be trusted to handle the very dangerous power source. The technocrat, on the other hand, expressed the fear that politicians might mess up the safeguards against human error that technology will be sure to discover, making nuclear power safe, clean and efficient. Neither argument was very encouraging. The technocrat, Professor Albert B. Reynolds, had all the right credentials—Oak Ridge, General Electric, Nuclear Regulatory Agency, and now with the University of Virginia. His specialty is nuclear safety. He assured everyone technology will solve any problems with nuclear energy. He had the facts and was articulate. The erstwhile politician, Dennis Gregg, however had few facts. He based his arguments on emotional assumptions—which are usually pretty good to go on in a nuclear debate, but Gregg was cocky. Gregg would shake his head, wince and act up for his friends in the audience while Reynolds spewed out facts. “You’re just wrong, and that’s that,” Gregg’s whole attitude said. GREGG had apparently read a lot about the problems of nuclear energy, and remembered how this and such had happened and these figures could prove it. but he could never lay his hands on the exact case which was somewhere in his files. Gregg would then riffle through his large accordian folder, but never seemed to lay his hands on what he said he wanted. Gregg runs a firm called the Center for Study of Environmental Design in Arlington. He is also overseeing the construction of a solar energy collector unit at Nether’s School, an “alternative” high school based on A.S. Neal’s Summerhill School in England. Gregg ran for Congress from the 10th District in Loudoun, Fairfax and Arlington. Even though he lost in the Democrat primary last year, Gregg called himself a politician. Reynolds led off the debate, which he preferred to call a “conversation.” Simply put, Reynolds held that nuclear power is safe, environmentally clean, cheap, and growing rapidly. There are 55 nuclear power plants now in operation in the U.S., said Reynolds, and another 200 planned. The entire world has only 76 such plants, with another 400 planned. Reynolds argued that underdeveloped nations really have “no hope” without nuclear power. The country does have an energy crisis, argued Reynolds, and all kinds of power sources have to be developed. Conservation is also important he said, but to stop the growth rate would “ruin the economy.” REYNOLDS asserted that the critics of nuclear energy should direct their efforts at making the power source safer rather than just be against it. Quoting some of Vepco’s figures, Reynolds announced that two existing nuclear power plants in Virginia have saved $100 million, or $150 for each house hold, if coal had been used instead of nuclear energy to produce the electricity. There are no dangers of radioactivity escaping from a power plant, continued Reynolds, although he admitted there are some waste disposal problems. But Reynolds felt assured that the wastes can be stored in underground salt mines. There won’t be as much waste as there has been, he added, because the nuclear breeder will be working soon. There is danger when plutonium could be stolen and fashioned into a bomb. This worried Reynolds because it was not technological matter, but political and psychological. Gregg was immediately antagonistic, “This is a debate,” he announced. Gregg felt that the risks involved in nuclear power were not worth taking. There was too much allowed for human stupidity or error, argued Gregg. Bombs can be made from stolen plutonium, continued Gregg. Then he got off on a wild scenario where the Army was flying in shipments of raw plutonium to Dulles Airport, and one of the planes like those carrying the shipments—no one knows if it actually was—landed right before the plane that crashed into the mountain near Bluemont, and what if that had been the plane to crash, “Well I’d hate to say,” laughed Gregg, apparently making the point that plutonium is dangerous and should not be used. Gregg went on to argue that there is not enough uranium, and the foreign uranium cartel is sure to black-mail the U.S. He also saw no point in continuing to have a large growth rate—“it’s like burning money”—which was about the only good point he made all night. REYNOLDS discounted some of the figures that Gregg kept throwing out. First, the breeder cost is $1.7 billion, not $10 billion, as asserted by Gregg. And then $10 billion is only half that which is spent on foreign oil in a year, continued Reynolds. Also, no one has ever received cancer from a radiation leak from a nuclear plant, as asserted by Gregg, said Reynolds. And on top of that, a bomb can only be made from plutonium before it is refabricated, and the solution to that is to build the refabrication plants next to the power plants, he added. Also, it takes more than two critical masses of plutonium to come together to make a bomb, argued Reynolds. “You’ll kill yourself from radiation if you do, but not make a bomb.’’ Reynolds asserted that would probably be easier to steal an already made bomb, than make one from scratch. All through Reynolds’s rebuttal, Gregg would shake his head and grin at the audience for support. Reynolds added that plutonium is dangerous only if it is inhaled, adding that it is hard to break it up into particles small enough to breath. Reynolds agreed that plutonium should not be shipped by air, and praised the critics of nuclear power for stopping air shipments. SOMEONE in the audience wanted to know if Reynolds saw any danger that Vepco’s North Anna nuclear plant was builtonanearinquake fault. Reynolds admitted that the plant should not have been built there, but saw no danger because the plant was designed to take an earthquake and the fault was several million years old and fairly inactive. Gregg argued that Reynolds’s claims everything will be safe if everything works correctly, but “nothing ever works-correctly.” Gregg then jumped on the fear of misuse of nuclear energy by other countries. Reynolds could only hope that international politics would avert any holocaust. Gregg saw martial law as the only political safeguard against nuclear power. Finally from the audience, Washington Mayor and cabinetmaker Peter Kramer burst out about how he wished “the scientists would stop trying to ruin my life.” Then to Reynolds, he angrily asked if he saw anything “rosy” in the future with all these dangerous technological discovModerator Peter Labowitz did not give Reynolds time to answer. “There is no place to run,” said Labowitz. “There is no place to escape technological change, so we must try to control it and make it safe.” Reynolds agreed, but Gregg made a few more stabs about how un-democratic it all was, and that was that.D 1 NOTICE The Rappahannock County Zoning office will be open between the hours of 8:30 am. to 4:30 p.m. on Tuesdays ONLY.

A restricted-use pesticide is any pesticide that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers harmful to man or the environment if applied carelessly. The EPA list of “restricted-use” pesticides is currently incomplete. But for every major crop grown in Virginia there will probably be at least one recommended pesticide classified as “restricted use.” To be on the safe side all pesticide applicators should become certified. This would include all custom applicators, most commercial orchardist and many farmers. Federal and state laws requiring certification of private and commercial uses of “restricted-use” pesticides becomes effective October 1976, under provisions of the Federal Environmental Pesticide Control Act and under an amendment to the Virginia pesticide law. The schools for private and commercial pesticide applicators will be conducted by the V.P.I. Extension Service in cooperation with the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Commerce, which is the certifying agency. L . .. . „ A one-day school for private applicators will be held in Kappahannock County, while a two-day school for commercial applicators will be conducted on an area basis. A fact sheet on the pesticide training and certification program will be mailed to most farmers and known commercial applicators in the county next Monday, August 4.
