Sperryville crisis ‘The chips are down9 says Health officer By DAPHNE lfcCULLOUGH “THE chips are down,” said Rappahannock County health officer Dr. R. S. LeGarde, speaking of Sperryville’s sewage disposal problem. According to Supervisor Chairman Pete Luke, the Rappahannock Supervisors will take action at their meeting Thursday that will either begin a Sperryville sewer project or halt the attempts to solve the town’s pollution problem. As a first step towards implementing either of the two alternative sewage disposal systems detailed in a report received from Mackie Engineering, the Board of Supervisors would have to concur with the ruling of the Water and Sewer Authority requiring mandatory hook-ups to any sewage system in Sperryville. At a meeting two weeks ago, the Authority ruled “under the authority granted them by the code of Virginia’’ to require that all commercial establishments and residences connect with the Sperryville sewer line, subject to the concurrence of the Board of Supervisors. This action was taken following findings by the Health Department that all 120 houses in Sperryville have either outhouses or failing septic systems. The area’s rocky, alluvial soil will perk, but the effluent runs horizontally, contaminating the water table and the Thornton River. In addition, a sewage system would have to be used by all the Sperryville homes in order for it to be affordable, said an Authority spokesman. THE Board would also have to authorize the transfer of funds from the $188,000 grant received from HUD for the project. If the two resolutions are not passed, Supervisor Chairman Pete Luke said that the grant monies would have to be returned, unspent. Sperryville will then be faced with State Water Control Board (SWCB) and Health Department action in response to the continuing pollution by raw sewage of the town’s water table and the Thornton River. Dr. LeGarde estimated that Health Department condemnation proceedings would occur within six months to a year. LeGarde has been issuing special permits to Sperryville businesses to allow them to remain open without meeting Health Department and SWCB standards. LeGarde said that his predecessors in the Health Department had adopted a “grandfatherly” attitude towards Sperryville by issuing permits basically in violation of the law, without requiring that steps be taken to remedy the sit Man charged with having marijuana Richard David Barr of Amissville was arrested on a warrant July 15 for driving on a revoked license. At the time of his arrest by Deputy Martin Orfila, he was in possession of five and a quarter pounds of a controlled drug, marijuana. He was arrested and charged with the drug offense and is being i held on $10,000 bond. A Rixeyville man was cited for auto larceny Monday in Rappahannock after he picked up a car for junk without the consent of the owner. James Franklin Menefee, the offender, was arrested by Deputy R. D. Hawkins. □ uation. When he assumed his position, LeGarde continued to issue the permits but only on the condition that the community “show a real effort” to clean up the pollution problem with a solution in sight. If neither sewage disposal system is accepted, there will be no See Page 14 Trooper R. A. Baines examines the area at Country Manor Gift Shop west of Sperryville which was burglarized Monday night or early Tuesday morning. In excess of $14,000 in merchandise was taken including lots of jewelry and knives. A window was broken to gain access. Mr. and Mrs. James Swindler and Mr. and Mrs. Donald Carroll are proprietors of the firm. State Investigators Larry King and Frank Lasley are also assisting the Sheriff’s Department with the investigation. Ski area’s future is under study HARVEY JOHNSON, representing the Camelback Ski Corporation, appeared before the Rappahannock Planning Commissioners at their July 21 meeting to bring them up to date regarding future plans for the Rappahannock Sid area. Johnson wanted “input” from the Commissioners. He explained that his staff didn’t want to go through the trouble of organizing a program now that the Planning Commissioners wouldn’t approve later. Johnson said that his company hopes to open the area on a yearround recreational basis. “It would have to be run more as a year-round operation rather than just a ski area in order to be profitable,” said Johnson. He said, the area could possibly open next summer but probably wouldn’t begin operations until the summer erf 1978. Beginning with a lodge and restaurant, Johnson said his staff planned to expand the business to possibly include hiking, Bluegrass festivals, art shows, auto shows and horseback riding. Johnson asked the Commissioners for a list of activities that they wouldn’t look favorable towards. “We want to be compatible with the community,” he added. Commission Chairman Herbert Barksdale immediately answered that he didn’t think the facility could handle a Bluegrass concert. Johnson replied that the kind of concert he had in mind would be small without any big name stars and would not be highly publicized. Barksdale said he’d never seen a Bluegrass concert yet that could accomodate the crowds that at tended. He compared the reaction of Bluegrass fans to news of a concert to his own reaction to a picnic. He said he heard about a picnic several nights ago 7 Town hearing is cancelled The meeting on the proposed alternative sewage disposal systems for the town of Sperryville, originally scheduled for 8 p.m. on July 30 at the Sperryville fire house, has been cancelled. Supervisor Chairman Pete Luke explained that there is no need to hold the meeting until after the August 5 meeting of the Rappahannock Board of Supervisors. At that time, the Supervisors will either endorse or reject a Water and Sewer Authority resolution requiring mandatory hook-ups to the proposed Sperryville system. Luke said that without the Supervisor’s endorsement, there would be no Sperryville sewer project at this time, and therefore no need for Friday’s meeting. If the Supervisors endorse the resolution, the meeting will be rescheduled. □

MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 Sperryville’s problem UNPLEASANT facts of life must be faced at Sperryville. The Health Department says it will be forced to take drastic steps if concrete action is not taken to solve the community’s long-standing problems with sewage disposal. Those drastic steps could include actual condemnation of businesses and residences. As Dr. R. S. LeGarde has warned on past occasions, Sperryville could be “closed up.” Solutions have been proposed which appear to be within the realm of economic possibility. In other words, enough grant funds and special funds are being made available to enable Sperryville’s residents to acquire a central sewer system, to hook onto that system, and to acquire modern indoor plumbing where none now exists. It won’t be easy. Solving difficult problems never is. But in view of the alternatives, there seems to be little choice. For once, reluctant state authorities appear to be determined to take whatever steps may be necessary. We cannot see, however, the necessity for placing the Board of Supervisors in the middle of this dilemma. By adopting a resolution Requiring Supervisor concurrence for 100 per cent participation in any Sperryville sewer system, the county sanitation authority has somewhat clouded the issue. It should not be upon die shoulders of the Supervisors to either kill or endorse a solution for Sperryville—that responsibility is in the hands of state officials. AND IF state officials are not willing to accept the responsibility for their actions, then they should not attempt to shift the blame somewhere else. Dr. LeGarde cannot be faulted for upholding his responsibilities as a guardian of the community’s health— and he must be concerned about the health of the entire community, and not merely the economic health of only one part of that community. But we repeat: There should be no confusing of the issue. It isn’t the Supervisors who are responsible for Sperryville’s problem, and it isn’t the Supervisors who hold the ultimate key to any solution. That burden lies with the state officials who have identified the problem, and with the citizens who must live with the solution. □ Hutt denounces Mondale candidacy James B. Hutt Jr., American Party candidate for Congress in the Seventh District, said that when Democratic Vice-Presidential candidate Walter Mondale recently signed the “Declaration of INTER-dependence,” a promotion of the World Affairs Council, it rendered him “unfit for the office of Vice-President, since this document calls for the United States to surrender its sovereignty to an international body, such as the United Nations.” Dr. Hutt remarked, “How can a man who would turn over our government to a ‘new world order’ live up to his oath to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution?” According to Hutt, “Mondale should either renounce his support NOTICE—Pictures for publication must be black and white. Color pictures will not be accepted. Social news which is more than three weeks old will not be accepted._ o for this anti-American and antiChristian document or withdraw his candidacy. This country can' no longer afford such un-American attitudes in its elected officials or candidates for public office.”□ FIRE, RESCUE Several Rappahannock fire companies responded Sunday to a barn fire at the property of Rowland Evans near Castleton. The barn was destroyed, however. July 22, The Washington Rescue Squad carried “Whit” Hudson from his home near Washington to Culpeper Memorial Hospital. Also on July 22, Mrs. E. N. Montague of Sperryville was transported from Culpeper Memorial Hospital to her home. July 25, The Washington Rescue Squad and fire truck was called to a barn fire near Castleton at the farm of Rowland Evans. Letters to the editor Church project falters Editor: The important work of saving (and restoring) the Mt. Salem Church received a severe setback Friday when the work of the young group being paid under the National Youth Summer Employment Act (I think that’s its title) was abruptly stopped because the work would benefit a church and that’s not allowed by that Act. So be it. I shall not mention Mr. Jefferson’s hand in that because, loving architecture, he would have sought a remedy in this crisis. Now it puts the job up to the community (some of whom have already pledged substantial support), to those who feel the importance of saving from vandals (including the weather) an example of past skill and constructional integrity, and those who see the value in preserving an historic site made so by generations of people of this country meeting together for the purpose of making better people themselves. The need for that endeavor will never lessen, nor can any reason be found for thinking it unnecessary. It is to be hoped that the County will respond to this real ^ emergency in an active, understanding, and practical way. For example: by getting in touch with Gale Titchenell in the Sperry - ville exchange, or Mrs. Barbara Reid in Castleton, an Amissville number, 937-4722.

Kenneth Robinson has extended a general invitation to the Fifth Annual Family Farm Conference in Buena Vista on Monday, August 2. Robinson, who represents the 7th Congressional District, is co-sponsor of the meeting with Representative M. Caldwell Butler of the 6th District, who originated the event. The purpose, Robinson explained, is to give farmers and others with economic interests in agriculture an opportunity to question Federal and State officials, and to consult with them on individual problems. Under Secretary of Agriculture John A. Knebel will be the keynote speaker, Robinson said. Others scheduled to participate in panel discussions include State Director David Grimwood of the Soil Conservation Service, State Director Richard Goodling of the Farmers Home Administration, Commissioner Mason S. Carbaugh of the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Commerce, Commissioner Edward M. Boggs of the Virginia Department of Labor and Industry, State Executive Di rector Mahlon K. Rudy of the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service, Area Director Neal C. Ewing, Jr. of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, Director Coyt T. Wilson of the Virginia Agricultural Experiment Station and Director Frank Elmore of the Department of Agriculture and Natural Resources of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. IN inviting 7th District agriculturists and their families to attend, Robinson said: “1 realize that Buena Vista is a considerable distance to travel from some parts of the very large 7th Congressional District, but I believe the meeting will be interesting and useful for those who are able to come. Formal presentations wall be brief in order to permit maximum time for informal participation by active family farmers and citizens active in^l agriculture-related businesses. “The conference will begin at 10 a.m. at Glen Maury Park, where a pavilion will be available for use in the event of rain, and a barbecue will follow shortly after noon.”D New employment supervisor named Ernest M.

Although the arrests were for all types of speeding, Colonel Burgess said that the great majority was for violations of the 55 mile per hour limit. Arrests of operators of commercial vehicles for the offense numbered 24,702, well above the 19,812 for the first six months of 1975.

Ski area’s future is under study From Pare 1 and even though he hadn’t been invited, he attended anyway. “If I hear of one, I generally go.” JOHNSON asked that the Commissioners contact Col. Evan McNear, who knows the onwers of the property, on any other areas where they felt problems might be encountered. Commissioner Walter Masterson suggested that Johnson get in touch with the owners of Graves Mountain Lodge in Syria, Madison County, for ideas. Commissioner Alan Stokes told Johnson that a good restaurant would bring in plenty of business. “If you can serve good food, you can draw people.” Phil Irwin from the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection said he expected that all “common sense things” would be taken care of in any future plans or growth of the ski area. He mentioned erosion and sedimentation that might affect the Rush River and disposal of sewage ana garoage as areas oi particular concern to the RLEP. “I wouldn’t expect them to use our dumpsters,” Irwin commented. “It might be a place we could put one,” interjected Fanning Baumgardner, in reference to the continuing trash disposal problem in the county. Irwin continued that he hoped the prices involved in using the ski area for summer recreation wouldn’t be so high as to exclude Rappahannock citizens. Johnson said one of his staff’s goals would be to encourage local participation and he mentioned the possibility of lower rates for tennis and swimming privileges during weekdays. Jim Marshall of the PEC asked Johnson if his staff had come up with any attendance figures necessary for the current plans to be economically feasible? Johnson replied that the plans were not that far along and he couldn’t tell yet whether the ski area would need 100 users or 500 to be economically successful. RAPPAHANNOCK Zoning Administrator Evan McNear presented two proposed changes in the zoning and subdivision ordinance to the Commissioners. Commission Chairman Herbert Barksdale said he had asked McNear to keep track of the changes that McNear felt would improve the ordinance so that the Planning Commission would be that much ahead when it came time to revise the document. State law requires that the ordinance be updated every five years. In regard to updating the zoning' maps, McNear said that the regulations tell how to change the maps but do not place the responsibility of physically making the change upon anyone. McNear didn’t feel that the responsibility should be his. Instead, he maintained, it should belong to someone other than the person who administers the ordinance. “I’m asking the Planning Commission’s guidance as to who should do it and get the zoning map situation strictly under control.” COMPLETE ONE-STOP Building Supply Hardware Paint Millwork Lumber WARRENTON BUILDING MATERIAL CO., INC. ON THE BY-PASS WARRENTON Phone 347-1400 Chairman Barksdale volunteered the Planning Commission’s services in effecting the changes, however often it was deemed necessary. Planning Commissioner and Supervisor Chairman Pete Luke thought the map should be updated every quarter. “Someone should have the authority to do it—in writing,” commented McNear. “As of now, no one has.” “I think it should be under dual control and changes should be dated and have two signatures,” added Commissioner Alan Stokes. BARKSDALE suggested that the Board of Supervisors notify the Planning Commission of any changes needed in the zoning map. The Planning Commission would be responsible for making the actual changes which would then be initialed by the Chairmen of both bodies. Mcwear agreed. mere s a great deal of interest in this in the county now and I think it’s good—I think it’s real good. . . It’s better to do these things promptly and forestall any criticism.” Luke added that the Commission would need to know from McNear of all subdivisions created since the zoning map was drawn. McNear replied that there weren’t many. “A lot more than you think,” observed Commissioner Walter Masterson. “As the subdivisions continue to mushroom all over the county, there are going to be more,” said Barksdale. ‘ ‘Keep going like we’ve been going, and it won’t be many years before we’re the Rappahannock subdivision.” LUKE brought up the possibility of “contract zoning,” requiring more special use permits and less uses by right in the various zoning districts. “Do you have any feeling on this?” he asked McNear. McNear didn’t reply directly to Luke’s question. Instead he presented a related matter—his second suggested change in the zoning ordinance. McNear said that oily in the Conservation District did the ordinance specify that all uses not included in the list of those allowed by right require a special use permit. He thought that the ordinance should say that the same applied in all zoning districts. The Commissioners agreed. “I think it’s very necessary that we have that statement included under all districts,” said Chairman Barksdale. McNear told the Commissioners that he wanted to discuss the RBI district at the next meeting. “Whew!” said McNear, shaking his head. “That’s a tough one.” “That’s where contract zoning could apply,” added Luke. Fanning Baumgardner reported that the Commissioner of Revenue would allow him to take her tax maps—the only up-to-date maps showing new subdivisions in the county—to Richmond to be reproduced. Baumgardner said that the telephone company wanted a copy and had agreed to pay for the set of two if they could keep one. Since the maps are not needed right away, Baumgardner agreed to explore further the possibility of interesting the power company in also paying for a set. “The longer we can put it off, the more up-todate the maps will be when we need them.” JIM MARSHALL from the Piedmont Environmental Council presented maps that had been commissioned two years ago to “show the things to be considered in any future Comprehensive Plan efforts.” The set includes maps showing streams, secondary roads, mountains, traffic volumes, surface water, land owner ship patterns, flood plains and slopes over 15 per cent, historic sites and soil standards—described by Marshall as ‘‘the most important, time consuming and controversial.” The soil standard map shows pasture, cropland and orchard soil that is equal to or above the national standard. The Planning Commissioners voted unanimously to approve the maps as presented. Phil Irwin, speaking for the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection, said he was also ready to accept the project that had been contracted for jointly. Marshall said that PEC would be available for consultation on “anything that comes up in relation to the maps or any other planning activities.” In order to clarify exactly what the maps are to be used for, the Planners passed a resolution stating that the maps are not for tax or zoning purposes but are to be used solely for public information. The Commissioners discussed the problem of establishing village boundaries for Amissville. Barksdale felt that any action of this sort should originate from the community itself. Luke commented that the matter couldn’t “be left hanging for too long.” Barksdale agreed, noting that there are a lot of land transactions going on in that area.

State 4-H growth seen There will be 500,000 4-H’ers in Virginia by 1985, Kenneth E. Dawson, state 4-H director, projects. Dawson made the prediction at the State 4-H Congress at Virginia Tech. Speaking before 1,400 4-H Con-1 gress delegates and guests, Dawson said that with the help of present 4-H’ers and more clearly defined goals, 4-H programs will broaden and become more significant. He also predicted that 40, 000 volunteer leaders will be needed to deal with this expansion. There now are 208,000 4-H members in the Old Dominion. Dawson referred to the future as a new era calling it “4-H in IPMMI Century in,” noting that there will be greater revisions throughout the 4-H curriculum and more selections available for the youth. To realize such change, he told the youth they must set their goals now. He urged 4-H teenagers to set an example for the younger people in meeting such goals as selfimprovement, national pride, moral integrity, and conservative use of resources. “If we are willing to settle for mediocrity, we will not attain the goals America and 4-H’ers are capable of achieving, he said. “Let us strive for excellence. Our motto is ‘To make the best better’.”□ WELDERS We have immediate openings for Experienced Welders and Trainees. Apply in person to Personnel Mgr. OLD DOMINION MFG.CO.. Inc.

USDA files charges on Rixey ville man RAYMOND P. MILLS, Jr., Rixeyville, has been charged with violating financial and payment requirements of the Packers and Stockyards Act, the U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced. Mills is registered as a dealer to buy and sell livestock. He purchases livestock throughout central Virginia. USDA’s Packers and Stockyards Administration charged in an administrative complaint that Mills: • Operated as a dealer during July 1975, while his current liabilities exceeded his current assets; • Issued insufficient funds checks and failed to pay, when due, for more than $26,000 worth of livestock from 1973 through 1975; • Failed to pay, when due, the full purchase price for another $13,550 worth of livestock during 1974 and 1975; and • Still owed $10,758 for livestock as of August 27, 1975. Filing of the complaint does not prove that Mills has violated the Packers and Stockyards (P&S) Act. He has a right to a hearing to determine if the evidence supports the charges. If the charges are proven, Mills would be placed under a cease and desist order. His registration could also be suspended. DEALERS are required under the P&S Act to maintain a' solvent financial position and to pay promptly for livestock, unless credit has been arranged to advance. Issuing insufficient funds checks in payment for livestock is considered to be an unfair practice.. The P&S Act is a fair trade practices law. It promotes and maintains fair and open competition in the marketing of livestock, Poultry, and meat. The record in this case is open to the public.

If the Board of Supervisors re- „ fuse to endorse the Sewer and Water Authority’s mandatory hook-up resolution, the matter will be completely out of the county ’ s control, claimed Luke. Without mandatory, hook-ups, neither alternative sewer system could be built and all grant money would have to be returned. Then, said Luke, the businesses and individuals in Sperryville will be dealing directly with the State and with the state law, with no help from the Supervisors. Rappahannock Water and Sewer Authority Chairman Col. M. F. Biddle received a report last week from the Mackie Engineering Company of Charlottesville detailing the costs involved in two alternative sewage disposal systems proposed for Sperryville. 'Hie least expensive alternative and an innovative approach to the sewage disposal problems of small communities without a large tax base is a town septic field that would involve monthly user fees of approximately $3.50. The other alternative is a standard sewage treatment plant with estimated monthly user fees of $10.60. Neither system would allow for significant growth. SPERRYVILLE has moved from 125th place to fifth on the SWCB’s 1977 priority list for funding sewage and wastewater treatment plants. Supervisor Chairman Pete Luke said the county has received a grant from HUD for $188,000 for piping costs of any sewage project. He also said that the county had gotten tentative approval for an EPA grant of $785,008 to cover construction costs. With the state contributing funds amounting to 20 percent of the total cost, funding for the project will amount to 95 percent, according to Luke. While $10,000 of the $188,000 HUD grant has been set aside to help the 27 families still using pit privies to put in bathrooms, Luke noted that the county could receive another HUD Urban Renewal grant for substandard homes that could also be used to cover costs involved in installing indoor plumbing. NOTICE EROSION AND SEDIMENTATION CONTROL Whereas, the General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Virginia, under Title 21, Chapter 1, Article 61, Sec: 21-89.1 et seq of the Code of Virginia authorized localities to adopt an erosion and sedimentation control program prior to July 1, 1975. The County of Rappahannock adopted an Erosion and Sedimentation Control Ordinance effective on November 6, 1975. Except as provided for in Section 4 of ordinance, no person may engage in any land disturbing activity, imtil such person has submitted to Rappahannock County, has had reviewed by and has had approved by the Rappahannock Approval Authority, an erosion and sediment control plan for such land disturbing activity. Exceptions to this requirement amont other things include areas less than 10,000 square feet, single family residences and normal operation of agricultural, horticultural or forest lands. Effective on 1 August 1976, a fee will be charged fdr issuance of the required land disturbing permit in accordance with Section 10 of this ordinance. Such fee will be provided to cover costs of plan review and inspection associated with land disturbing activity. Application for land disturbing permit will be made to the County Engineer.

You’ve been away a year today, You didn’t want to go; But another star was needed To make the world aglow. So now we’re looking upward, For there is another light; We gaze into the heavens And see your face so bright. The memory of you here at home Will never pass away. But we know you’re happy there That helps us through the day It gives us hope to carry on And faith to see us through. And with our faith, a gift of God We’ve become a child like you. So once again, as skies grow dim, And stars become so few; One by one, Stuart dear, We’ll come to live with you.
