CHARLES GOODIN Editor CHARLES GOODIN | Nashville News Tyson officials Jack Lacefield, Mike Hanson and Paul Britt celebrate after Workman’s Compensation Commissioner Ricky Belk presented the plant with an award for accumulating one million hours without an accident resulting in lost time. CELEBRATING SAFETY Tyson Foods honored for one million accident-free hours CHARLES GOODIN NASHVILLE - City aldermen voted down the proposed sale of the Legion Hut building Tuesday during their regular monthly meeting. The move came after Mayor Billy Ray Jones told council members that he had received a verbal appraisal stating that the property is worth $35-40,000 and a bid from the committee running the Bread of Life soup kitchen in the amount of $15,000. “I would strongly not encourage you to take the bid of the soup kitchen,” Jones said, adding that since discussion of selling the property took place at last month’s meeting, several other parties had expressed interest in acquiring it. Jones asked for a show of hands from the council indicating whether they wanted to refuse the soup kitchen’s bid, and a majority of the present aldermen so moved. The mayor then asked whether the council was interested in selling the structure to any other potential buyers. Council members Kay Gathright and Vivian Wright voiced strong opposition to See COUNCIL / Page 8 HMH still looking to recruit doctors n Editor S tate Department of Labor officials were on hand Wednesday to congratulate Tyson Foods for completing one million hours of work without an accident resulting in lost time. Sources at the company said the food giant earned the achievement between October of last year and May of this year. “This accomplishment is not one that just happens overnight,” Complex Manager Paul Britt said while addressing the crowd of over 150 first shift workers. “This accomplishment is one that’s taken about 26 weeks to achieve and it’s only accomplished by sincere dedication, by teamwork, by communication.” Ricky Belk, Workman’s Compensation Commissioner, presented plant officials with a plaque commemorating their achievement. “What you have accomplished is amazing,” Belk said. “I truly believe in safety and you obviously do as well.” Clark Thomas, Safety Administrator with the Department of Labor, spoke next, pointing out that the state has already endured roughly 15 industrial casualties as a result of unsafe practices at work. “That’s why all these officials are saying, ‘good job,’ ‘well done’,” Thomas said. “You really need to give yourselves a good pat on the back.” “ This accomplishment is one that’s taken about 26 weeks to achieve and it’s only accomplished by sincere dedicaion, by teamwork, by communicaion.” -Paul Brit Complex Manager BRENT PINKERTON SW Arkansas Radio As construction progresses on the new medical office building, located on the campus of Howard Memorial Hospital, the recruitment of new physicians is on-going. During Tuesday’s hospital board of directors meeting, Administrator Debra Wright said a meeting was conducted Monday with Dr. Agnes Yollo. She is a third year Family Practice Resident and is 98 percent interested in coming to Nashville, according to Wright. An offering letter has been submitted to Dr. Yollo, who has until July 31st to accept or decline. Wright said hospital officials are working on a financial package that is beneficial to both Dr. Yollo and the hospital. Another interview is scheduled for July 26th with Dr. Brent Bennett, who will graduate two years from now in Family Practice Medicine. Bennett is a Magnolia native. His wife is also in the medical field, serving as an occupational therapist. See DOCTORS / Page 8 Local man is a cribbage king JOHNNY GRAVES News Staff As a young boy, John Clayton Graves was curious about a card game his aunts and uncles played often and enjoyed enthusiastically. He was so small he had to stand on tiptoes just to see. Once he pulled up a stepladder to watch his favorite player, his grandfather the late Louis “Swampy” Graves. The game was cribbage, which his grandfather learned from British Airmen during WWII while stationed in China as a captain in the US Army Air Corps. Played with a deck of cards and pegboard for keeping score, the game is usually played with two, three or four players. Cribbage was invented by an Englishman in the 1600s and is played competitively worldwide. “Poppy was the best and told me to be patient and watch and I would someday be better than he,” Graves said. “My Uncle Danny said, ‘I can teach you the rules but you have to learn the game.’” So with encouragement from family he was determined not just to play but to be the best. John, now 24, and his father, Johnny Graves, travel to the only cribbage club in Arkansas in Hot Springs each Thursday evening. They compete one-on-one with about 20 other players and play 9 games each. Scores are tallied at the end and cash prizes are award for 1 st, 2 nd and 3 rd places. The weekly grassroots tournament is more about competition and camaradeSee CRIBBAGE / Page 8 JOHNNY GRAVES | Nashville News John Graves is pictured with a plaque he received after he played a 28 point hand in a cribbage game. The maximum number of points possible in a cribbage hand is 29. 2 Editorial Thursday, June 27, 2013 | The Nashville News | Online at http://www.nashvillenews.org | Call: 1-888-845-6397 Random thoughts Random thoughts on the passing scene: Edmund Burke said, "There is no safety for honest men, but by believing all possible evil of evil men." Evil men do not always snarl. Some smile charmingly. Those are the most dangerous. If you don't think the mainstream media slants the news, keep track of how often they tell you that the Arctic ice pack is shrinking and how seldom they tell you that the Antarctic ice pack is expanding. The latter news would not fit the Creators "global warming" scenario that so many in the media Syndicate are promoting. Someone has referred to Vice President Biden as President Obama's "impeachment insurance." Even critics who are totally opposed to Barack Obama's policies do not want anything to cut short his presidency, with Joe Biden as his successor. People who refuse to accept unpleasant truths have no right to complain about politicians who lie to them. What other kind of candidates would such people elect? Given the shortage of articulate Republican leaders, it will be a real loss — to the country, not just to the Republicans — if Senator Marco Rubio discredits himself, early in his career, by supporting "comprehensive" immigration reform that amounts to just another amnesty, with false promises to secure the border. Ever since I learned, as a teenager, that the "Saturday Evening Post" magazine was actually published on Wednesday mornings, I have been very skeptical about words. "Gun control" laws do not control guns, "rent control" laws do not control rent and government "stimulus" spending does not stimulate the economy. It is hard to think of two people with more different personalities than New York's Mayor Michael Bloomberg and President Barack Obama. But they are soul mates when it comes to thinking that they ought to take a whole spectrum of decisions out of citizens' hands, and impose the government's decisions on them. Maybe the reason for the New York Yankees' low batting averages has something to do with the fact that so many of their batters seem to be swinging for the fences, even when a single would score the winning run. President Obama's denial of knowledge about the various scandals in his administration that are starting to come to light suggests that his titles should now include Innocent-Bystander-in-Chief. It has long been my belief that the sight of a good-looking woman lowers a man's IQ by at least 20 points. A man who doesn't happen to have 20 points he can spare can be in big trouble. When Attorney General Eric Holder argued that a "path to citizenship" for illegal immigrants was a "civil right" and a "human right," that epitomized the contempt for the public's intelligence which has characterized so much of what has been said and done by the Obama administration. You know you are old when waitresses call you "dear." Although many people have been surprised and disappointed by Barack Obama, it is hard to think of a president whose policies were more predictable from his history, however radically different those policies are from his rhetoric. When any two groups have different behavior or performance, that plain fact can be turned upside down and twisted to say that whatever criterion revealed those differences has had a "disparate impact" on one of the groups. In other words, the criterion is blamed for an injustice to those who failed to meet the standard. Have you heard any gun control advocate even try to produce hard evidence that tighter gun control laws reduce murder rates? Does anyone seriously believe that people who are prepared to defy the laws against murder are going to obey laws against owning guns or large capacity magazines? I may be among the few people who want Attorney General Eric Holder to keep his job — at least until the 2014 elections. Holder epitomizes what is wrong with the Obama administration. He is essentially Barack Obama without the charm, so it should be easier for the voters to see through his lies and corruption. Despite political differences, it is hard not to feel sorry for White House press secretary Jay Carney, for all the absurdities his job requires him to say with a straight face. What is he going to do when this administration is over? Wear a disguise, change his name or be put into a witness protection program? Thomas Sowell Do women belong on the battleield? "The Pentagon unveiled plans Tuesday for fully integrating women into frontline and special combat roles, including elite forces such as Army Rangers and Navy SEALs." So ran the lead on the CNN story. And why are we doing this? Did the young officers leading troops in battle in Afghanistan and Iraq, returning with casualties, say they needed women to enhance the fighting efficiency of their combat units and the survival rate of their soldiers? Did men from the 101st and 82nd airborne, the Marines, the SEALs and Delta Force petition the Joint Chiefs to put women alongside them in future engagements to make them an even superior force? No. This decision to put women in combat represents a capitulation of the military brass, a surrender to the spirit of our age, the Pentagon's salute to feminist ideology. This is not a decision at which soldiers arrived when they studied afteraction reports, but the product of an ideology that contradicts human nature, human experience and human history, and declares as dogma that women are just as good at soldiering as men. But if this were true, rather than merely asserted, would it have taken mankind the thousands of years from Thermopylae to discover it? In the history of civilization, men have fought the wars. In civilized societies, attacks on women have always been regarded as contemptible and cowardly. Even the Third Reich in its dying hours did not send women into battle, but old men and boys. "You don't hit a girl!" was something every American boy had drilled into him from childhood. It was part of our culture, the way we were raised. A Marine friend told me he would have resigned from the Corps rather than fight women with the pugil sticks used for bayonet practice at Parris Island. Sending women into combat on equal terms seems also to violate common sense. When they reach maturity, men are bigger, stronger, more aggressive. Thus they commit many times the number of violent crimes and outnumber women in prisons 10 to 1. For every Bonnie Parker, there are 10 Clyde Barrows. Is it a coincidence that every massacre discussed in our gun debate — from the Texas Tower to the Long Island Railroad, from Columbine to Ft. Hood, from Virginia Tech to Tucson, from Aurora to Newtown — was the work of a crazed male? Nothing matches mortal combat where soldiers fight and kill, and are wounded, maimed and die for cause or country. Domestically, the closest approximations are combat training, ultimate fighting, boxing and that most physical of team Pat Buchanan Creators Syndicate sports, the NFL. Yet no women compete against men in individual or team sports. They are absent from boys' and men's teams in high school and college, be it football, basketball, baseball, hockey or lacrosse. Even in the non-contact sports of golf, tennis and volleyball, men compete with men, women against women. In the Olympics, to which nations send their best athletes, women and men compete separately in track and field, swimming and gymnastics. Consider our own history. Would any U.S. admiral say that in any of America's great naval battles — Mobile Bay, Manila Bay, Midway, the Coral Sea — we would done better with some women manning the guns? In the revolutionary and civil wars, World Wars I and II, Korea and Vietnam, women were not in combat. Was it invidious discrimination of which we should all be ashamed that women were not fighting alongside the men at Gettysburg, in the Argonne, at Normandy or with "Chesty" Puller's Marines in the retreat from the Chosin Reservoir? Undeniably, some women might handle combat as well as some men. But that is true of some 13-, 14- and 15-year-old boys, and some 50- and 60-year old men. Yet we do not draft boys or men that age or send them into combat. Is this invidious discrimination based on age, or ageism? Carr y this feministegalitarian ideology to its logical conclusion, and half of those storming the Omaha and Utah beaches should have been girls and women. Is this not an absurdity? We have had Navy ships become "love boats," with female sailors returning pregnant. At the Naval Academy, three midshipmen, football players, allegedly raped an intoxicated classmate. For months, she was too ashamed and frightened to report it. An estimated 26,000 personnel of the armed forces were sexually assaulted in 2011, up from 19,000 in 2010. Obama and the Congress are understandably outraged. Such assaults are appalling. But is not the practice of forcing young men and women together in close quarters a contributory factor here? Among the primar y reasons the Equal Rights Amendment, the ERA, went down to defeat three decades ago was the realization it could mean, in a future war, women could be drafted equally with men, and sent in equal numbers into combat. But what appalled the Reaganites is social progress in the age of Obama. This is another country from the one we grew up in.

Landfill corrects error in Obituary Social Security paperwork Agnes Fern Boyd Payments were withheld but employees had not been enrolled in the program CHARLES GOODIN Editor NASHVILLE - The Upper Southwest Arkansas Regional Solid Waste Management District has been out of compliance with Social Security guidelines since its inception, Executive Director Max Tackett told board members Tuesday during their quarterly meeting. Tackett said the organization has been withholding payments to the federal program but never actually enrolled its employees, potentially endangering their ability to collect from the program when they become eligible. He added that he was informed of the error during a recent audit and was told that the problem is common to landfills across the state. In order to rectify the issue, board members approved two resolutions, the first of which will allow employees to vote on a referendum concerning whether they want full coverage under the program. The second resolution set up an election committee consisting of three people and an alternate. In other business during the meeting, board members approved amending the landfill’s tire policy to include a fee for large off road tires. The move came after Mitch Noble told board members the fees recommended in the proposal were set according to a fee schedule at Davis Tire Company, where the landfill is currently disposing of the large tires. According to the amendment text, the landfill will begin charging $175 per ton for tires with a large bead less than 2.5 inches and $300 per ton for tires with beads between 2.5 and 3.5 inches. Larger tires are to be judged on an individual basis. Road grader sized tires and smaller were unaffected by the change. Board members also approved a resolution allowing Tackett and Noble to release tires for alternative uses such as water tanks and to prevent erosion. The proposed use of the tire would have to be approved by the Arkansas Department of Environ- mental Quality before the tire could be released. Tackett told board members that the district is still in the process of beginning a tire shredding program and said the organization will likely accept bids toward the end of January 2014 on building a structure to house the device. In other business, the board: • tabled discussion on a proposed division of recycling grant funds that would have doled out $60,000 to the Howard County Children’s Center, $60,000 to Montgomery County to help build a recycling center and $100,000 to the landfill itself; •wasinformedthatthe state highway department has determined the deteriorating condition of the paved road leading to the district is due to moisture in the gravel beneath it and that it will be torn up and injected with lime, then repaved beginning July 1; •wasinformedthatoutside of a few adjustments made to the landfill’s balance sheet, it received a ‘clean’ 2011-12 audit.

Congratulations for all the hard work you put towards completing your education. Now, the real world begins. While it can be exciting finding your first “real” job, preparing for additional education or signing up for the military, it is important to think about your finances. First, pretend that you are still a starving student. After landing your first fulltime job, the urge to go on a spending spree for new clothes, a better apartment and a new car can be irresistible especially after surviving on ramen noodles for four years. Unless you had a generous scholarship or lots of financial help from family, you’re probably already saddled with thousands of dollars in student loan debt. Most student loans must be paid back on a payment schedule once you have graduated college. For high school students heading off to college in the fall, be sure to check around for the best deal on student loans. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has a great guide for making informed decisions about paying for college at www.consumerfinance. gov/students. After you’ve factored in rent, car payments, renter’s and car insurance, credit card charges, student loan balances and other monthly bills (including utilities, food and Social Security tax), your new salary probably won’t go as far as you’d like. This is especially true if you are trying to save for a future life event (marriage, buy- ension t x E Tips by Jean A. Ince Staff chairman UofA Cooperative Extension Service • Howard County ing a house, starting a family and retirement). That’s where a budget can help. There are numerous free budging tools available through the Cooperative Extension Service. One series, the “Financial Smart Start for Newlyweds” is great for anyone wanting to learn about basic budgeting, saving for a home, and communicating about finances. This program is a series of fact sheets focusing on a variety of financial matters. There are also several on-line websites that can help. Some popular ones are www.uaex. edu (U of A Extension Website), www.mymoney.gov (Government sponsored site), www.nfcc.org (National Foundation for Credit Counseling) and www. practicalmoneyskills.com (Practical Money Skills for Life). Next, know your credit score. Credit is needed in order to purchase a car, home or even when applying for a credit card. Many people just starting out may not have established any credit. If you have a student loan or you have used credit cards that are in your name to help pay expenses associated with college, you will have established a credit history. Many people don’t realize until it’s too late that a poor credit score can trash your financial future. After you’ve missed a few loan payments, bounced some checks or exceeded your credit limits, you’ll probably be charged higher loan and credit card in- terest rates and offered lower credit limits (if not denied credit altogether), unless and until you can raise your credit score. You may even have to pay higher insurance rates and harm your ability to rent an apartment or get a cell phone. To know where you stand, review your credit reports from each of the three major credit bureaus (Equifax, Experian and TransUnion) to find out whether any negative actions have been reported and to look for errors or possible fraudulent activity on your accounts. You can order one free report per year from each bureau if you order them through www.AnnualCreditReport. com; otherwise you will pay a small fee. You have worked hard to graduate. Make sure you don’t sabotage your efforts by starting out on the wrong financial footing. For more information on financial matters, call the Howard County Extension Office at 870-845-7517 or visit our office located on the second floor of the courthouse.

The Fourth of July holiday weekend is one of the busiest travel periods for motorists as thousands of drivers head out on the roadways and interstate highways. Beginning June 28th and continuing through the following two weeks, officers will work to minimize the risk of fatalities by the strict enforcement of two of the most common traffic violations associated with fatal traffic crashes, driving while impaired and speeding. Sobriety checkpoints and speed patrols will be a top priority for law enforcement statewide. “Troopers will be aggressively enforcing the targeted laws during the upcoming holiday period,” said Colonel Stan Witt, Director of the Arkansas State Police and Governor’s Highway Safety Representative. “Please drive safely, follow the speed limit and don’t drink and drive.” Drinking and driving is a deadly combination and law enforcement officials are stressing the importance of designating a sober driver and refusing to ride with anyone who has been drinking. “Speeding greatly reduces a driver’s ability to steer safely around another vehicle, a hazardous object or an unexpected curve. Speeding and impaired drivers put themselves, their passengers and other drivers at tremendous risk,” says Colonel Witt. While death and injury are of course the most serious of possible consequences of drunk driving, there are other negative considerations that can affect lives for many years, including loss of a drivers license, vehicle impoundment, jail time, lawyer fees, court costs and insurance hikes, just to name a few. “All drivers should be on notice that a violation of these laws can be life changing.” said Colonel Witt. “Remember, ‘Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over’ and ‘Obey the Sign, or Pay the Fine’.” For more information, log onto www.TrafficSafetyMarketing.gov or call the Arkansas Highway Safety Office at (501) 618-8133.

We have had some very hot days already. If the summer is going to be this hot, my air conditioner will get a good workout. Every summer I remind readers to make sure we look in on our seniors during the hot weather to make sure they have a fan or the air conditioner on. Oops! Now I am one of them. You know what that means. Mount Zion had regular worship service on Sunday and communion. Pastor Germany brought a sermon on letting go of your anxieties. He used for a scriptural basis Philippians Chapter 4:6-8. These words can be very comforting if you are experiencing the stress of the many changes of everyday life. Jeanette Deloney celebrated a birthday last week. She was blessed to have several gathering in her honor. Congratulations. We wish her good health and a long and prosperous life. Mount Zion will be celebrating Pastor and Sister Bertha Germany’s seventh appreciation service July 21 at 3 p.m. The public is invited. Rev. Griffith from Bright Star Church in Schaal will bring the message. White Cliffs will have a new resident in July. The community welcomes them and will be glad to have them. There were no emergency responses in the cliffs this month. We are glad for that. Please remember Lela James in your prayers. She was a very vibrant person before her illness, and shared her gifts and talents with the surrounding areas. Christian Refresher: Philippians 4-7 NKJV “Rejoice in the Lord always. And again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your request be known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” Love is the key! D.E.

RAY n News Staff I nside a metal building north of Center Point there is an impressive amount of Howard County history. Glen House, who built and owns the barn, has created a collection of antiques and curios that fills the structure and makes it a very striking showroom. House started construction on the barn in 2005, building it largely from scavenged materials including roofing beams made from an old monorail system formerly used in the Weyerhaeuser plant at Dierks, and windows and decking recovered from churches undergoing remodeling. It took him two years to complete the structure, and since he finished it in 2007 he has been filling it with historic machines, tools and glassware, as well as his own art pieces. Most of the items in his collection were inherited or donated to him, he says. Many items in the collection reflect life in Howard County over the 81 years of House’s life, including farming machines that were used by landowners to handle their crops before tractors became common, medical equipment no longer in use at the local hospital, and memorabilia from former local businesses. Also included are many art pieces which House produces himself from sheet metal, as well as functional artistic pieces such as woodworked tables and benches. The structure, which House designed, is fully finished and also artistic itself. The building, large enough to hold a regulation basketball court, feels almost like a museum or gallery, with very careful lighting and a still and calm atmosphere. House said that he and his wife Helen have also hosted several events in the building, including retirement and birthday parties for friends and class reunions. Though the building is not open to the public, House does enjoy showing it to people. n ABOVE: Glen House’s barn is pictured north of Center Point, where the structure contains an impressive showroom of historical Howard County artifacts. n AT RIGHT: House demonstrates the operation of a manual hay bailer used to produce square bales.

Nick Davis was the lone alderman in favor of seeking other bids, citing the age of the building as the primary impetus for his decision. “There comes a time when you just have to give things up and that’s basically what I’m willing to do,” he said. A motion was made to leave the property as-is and it passed with Davis casting the lone no vote. In other business during the meeting, Public Works Director Larry Dunaway gave the council an update on its various projects which included the following information: •Thecityhasreceived a letter from the United States Department of Agriculture authorizing it to open bidding on planned improvements to its waste water treatment facility and sewer trunk line.

According to police reports, Tony Barnes, 49, of Nashville, was taken into custody late Thursday after he allegedly fled from officers investigating the theft of an RV at Parker Creek Recreational Area. Pike County deputies had responded to a call from Stephanie Wilkerson, who told police she had arrived at the camp with Barnes a few days ago, left briefly, and returned to find her 1992 Winnebago was missing from the area. A statement issued by the Pike County Sheriff’s Office indicates that an orange truck owned by Barnes was located at the camp site and that police discovered a rifle inside. That’s when police say Barnes was spotted in the passenger seat of a white Dodge driving through the recreational area, and Deputy David Shelby ordered the vehicle to stop and asked Barnes to step outside. According to the incident report, Shelby then observed Barnes lean over and produce a pistol. Police say Shelby tazed Barnes but the suspect was able to disarm the device and fled the scene shortly after cursing authorities and waiving around his firearm. The white truck in which Barnes fled belongs to Kris Snodgrass, and a BOLO order was issued for the truck. Barnes was later spotted in the Nathan area and an exhaustive search effort lasting several hours was conducted involving officers from both Howard BARNES and Pike Counties as well as the Arkansas State Police after the suspect allegedly ran into the woods. Police located the Winnebago at Barnes’ mother’s house, but were unable to locate the suspect. Two hours later, the authorities received a call from the mother that Barnes had just left her house on foot. When the suspect was eventually found, police say he was holding the pistol to his head and insisted on speaking with Howard County Sheriff Butch Morris, who arrived at the scene and was able to talk Barnes into surrendering. The gun that was being carried by Barnes was believed to be stolen from a Hempstead County owner. Barnes was taken into custody without incident and transported to Pike County Jail, where he faces charges of aggravated assault, theft of property, possession of firearm by a certain person, fleeing by vehicle and theft by receiving. Barnes’ bond was set at $250,000 and will return to court on July 8. Police agencies involved in the incident included the Corps of Engineer Park Rangers, Pike and Howard County Sheriff’s Departments, Nashville SWAT team, Arkansas State Police, Game and Fish and South Central Drug Task Force.

This report is designed to inform you about the quality water and services we deliver to you every day. Our goal is to provide you with a safe and dependable supply of drinking water, and we want you to understand, and be involved in, the efforts we make to continually improve the water treatment process and protect our water resources. Where Does Our Drinking Water Come From? The sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells. We purchase treated water from Nashville Public Works whose source is surface water from Lake Nichols and Little Missouri River. How Safe Is The Source Of Our Drinking Water? The Arkansas Department of Health has completed a Source Water Vulnerability Assessment for Nashville Public Works. The assessment summarizes the potential for contamination of our sources of drinking water and can be used as a basis for developing a source water protection plan. Based on the various criteria of the assessment, our water sources have been determined to have a medium to high susceptibility to contamination. You may request a summary of the Source Water Vulnerability Assessment from our office. What Contaminants Can Be In Our Drinking Water? As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals and, in some cases, can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity. Contaminants that may be present in source water include: Microbial contaminants such as viruses and bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations, and wildlife; Inorganic contaminants such as salts and metals, which can be naturally occurring or result from urban stormwater runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or farming; Pesticides and herbicides which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban stormwater runoff, and residential uses; Organic chemical contaminants including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are by-products of industrial processes and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater runoff, and septic systems; Radioactive contaminants which can be naturally occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining activities. In order to assure tap water is safe to drink, EPA has regulations which limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations establish limits for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the same protection for public health. Am I at Risk? All drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk. However, some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immunocompromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from small amounts of contamination. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the Environmental Protection Agency’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1-800-426-4791. In addition, EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by microbiological contaminants are also available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline. Lead and Drinking Water If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing. We are responsible for providing high quality drinking water, but cannot control the variety of materials used in plumbing components. When your water has been sitting for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposure by flushing your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to have your water tested. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline or at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead. How Can I Learn More About Our Drinking Water? If you have any questions about this report or concerning your water utility, please contact Ryan Stuckey, Manager, at 870845-5442. We want our valued customers to be informed about their water utility. If you want to learn more, please attend any of our regularly scheduled meetings. They are held on the fourth Thursday of each month at 5:30 PM at Nashville Rural Water Association’s Office. TEST RESULTS We and Nashville Public Works routinely monitor for constituents in your drinking water according to Federal and State laws. The test results table shows the results of our monitoring for the period of January 1st to December 31st, 2012. In the table you might find terms and abbreviations you are not familiar with. To help you better understand these terms we've provided the following definitions: Action Level - the concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements which a water system must follow. Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) - the highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as feasible using the best available treatment technology. Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG) – unenforceable public health goal; the level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety. Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level (MRDL) - the highest level of a disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is convincing evidence that addition of a disinfectant is necessary for control of microbial contaminants. Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level Goal (MRDLG) - the level of a drinking water disinfectant below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MRDLGs do not reflect the benefits of the use of disinfectants to control microbial contaminants. NA – not applicable Nephelometric Turbidity Unit (NTU) – a unit of measurement for the clarity of water. Turbidity in excess of 5 NTU is just noticeable to the average person. NPW – Nashville Public Works NRWA – Nashville Rural Water Association Parts per billion (ppb) - a unit of measurement for detected levels of contaminants in drinking water. One part per billion corresponds to one minute in 2,000 years, or a single penny in $10,000,000. Parts per million (ppm) – a unit of measurement for detected levels of contaminants in drinking water. One part per million corresponds to one minute in two years or a single penny in $10,000. MICROBIOLOGICAL CONTAMINANTS Contaminant Violation Y/N Level Detected Unit MCLG (Public Health Goal) MCL (Allowable Level) N None Present 0 1 positive sample per month Total Coliform Bacteria (NRWA) Contaminant for Governor, because he will make modernizing this state’s infrastructure, boosting economic development and creating jobs top priorities when he is elected governor of Arkansas.” Ross said infrastructure and economic development go hand-in-hand, and he committed to modernizing and expanding the state’s current infrastructure as governor. “Almost one in four bridges in Arkansas is either structurally deficient or functionally obsolete, and almost 40 percent of our roads are in poor or mediocre condition,” said Ross. “Modernizing and expanding our state’s infrastructure is key to economic growth, because businesses need good roads to move their products and grow their businesses. I’m thankful to receive this endorsement from our state’s hardworking construction workers and, as governor, I will fight for working families and I will make economic development and job creation cornerstones of my plan to move Arkansas forward into the 21st century.” For more information about Mike’s campaign for governor, visit MikeRoss. com. ♦ MCLG Violation Y/N Level Detected N Highest yearly sample result: 0.08 Lowest monthly % of samples meeting the turbidity limit: 100% (NPW) LITTLE ROCK – Groups representing Arkansas’s construction workers officially endorsed Mike Ross for Governor. The Laborers Inter national Union of North America, the Southwest Laborers District Council, Laborers Local 1282 and Laborers Local 107 said they endorsed Ross, who is seeking the Democratic nomination for governor, because of his overwhelming support for Arkansas’s working families and his commitment to economic development during his time in the State Senate and the U.S. Congress. “Throughout Mike’s time in public ser vice, he has always stood up and fought for working families in Arkansas and now we’re standing with him in his campaign to be this state’s next governor,” said Reno Hammond, Southwest Laborers Business Manager. “Mike led the fight to raise the nation’s minimum wage, was a national leader in the effort to prioritize the building of I-49 and I-69 here in Arkansas and has fought for investments in our crumbling roads and bridges that help spur economic growth and create jobs in the Natural State. We endorse Mike Ross Naturally present in the environment TURBIDITY Turbidity Ross endorsed by laborer’s unions Major Sources in Drinking Water Unit Major Sources in Drinking Water MCL (Public Health Goal) (Allowable Level) Any measurement in excess of 1 NTU constitutes a violation NTU NA Soil runoff A value less than 95% constitutes a violation Turbidity is a measurement of the cloudiness of water.

The results above are from our last monitoring period in 2012. Our next required monitoring period is the year 2015. ♦ The percentage of Total Organic Carbon (TOC) removal was routinely monitored in 2012 by our supplier, NPW, and all TOC removal requirements set by US EPA were met. TOC has no health effects. However, Total Organic Carbon provides a medium for the formation of disinfection by-products. These by-products include trihalomethanes (THMs) and haloacetic acids (HAAs).

They are meant to help the water system understand what to expect when it eventually must comply with the Stage 2 DBP Rule. Some people who drink water containing trihalomethanes in excess of the MCL over many years may experience problems with their liver, kidneys, or central nervous systems, and may have an increased risk of getting cancer.

The purpose of unregulated contaminant monitoring is to assist EPA in determining the occurrence of unregulated contaminants in drinking water and whether future regulation is warranted. MCLs (Maximum Contaminant Levels) and MCLGs (Maximum Contaminant Level Goals) have not been established for all unregulated contaminants.

Our program is designed to cover the out-of-pocket costs - like co-payments, deductibles and denials - that most insurance companies assign to their members. Unlike standard “gap” insurance coverage, the membership program covers all HCAS emergency transports - even if Medicare issues a denial! Beneits of a membership apply exclusively to HCAS service, and include: • If you are a member, and if you do not have insurance or your insurance claim is denied, you will receive a 40% discount off normal charges. • If you have insurance, HCAS will accept your insurance company’s payment as payment-in-full. I Have Insurance, Do I Need a membership? Medicare and insurance companies deny about 30 percent of all ambulance claims they receive. When they refuse to pay, the entire bill - usually totaling $500 of more - becomes the patient’s responsibility. Members are charged a signiicantly reduced rate (40% savings off the standard rate) for uncovered emergency or non-emergency service. How Do I Become a Member? HCAS’s annual enrollment period is from July 1st to July 31st. For more information, please call 870-451-0400.
