Minor Injuries In Rt. 6 Crash At Fishing Creek Intersection
Two women suffered minor injuries in a two car crash in Roulette Township at the intersection of Fishing Creek Road and Route 6 at 8:15 am on Friday.
Kathleen M. Morey, 50, of Roulette, PA, suffered a minor injury but did not require transport to a hospital. She was driving a 2006 Pontiac Bonneville.
Deidra J. Oswalt, 30, of Sheffield, PA, was transported by ambulance to Charles Cole Hospital for treatment of a minor injury. She was driving a 1997 Lincoln Continental.
Wanda Blankenship, 51, of Warren, PA, a passenger in the Lincoln, was not injured.
All three women were wearing safety belts at the time of the crash.
Trooper Mark VanVolkenburg said the crash occurred as Morey was traveling north on Fishing Creek Extension, completed a stop at the stop sign, and then attempted to make a left hand turn onto Rt. 6.
She failed to ensure it was safe to enter route 6, resulting in a collision with Oswalt's Lincoln that was traveling eastbound on Rt. 6. Both vehicles came to rest across both lanes of Route 6.
Morey was cited for a Stop & Yield violation.
Roulette Fire Dept. and Ambulance responded and called for assistance from Coudersport Fire Dept. and Ambulance.

Port Allegany Man Killed In Head On Crash On Rt. 6
A 24 year old man died Friday night when the Go-Kart he was operating struck a pickup truck head on Route 6 east of Port Allegany in Liberty Township.
Keith Robinette, 24, of Port Allegany, PA, died at the scene of the 9:20 PM crash near the Seneca Inn.
Trooper Lance Schimp, who is conducting an ongoing investigation of the crash, said the collision occurred as Benjamin Price, 21, of Roulette, PA, was traveling east on Route 6 driving a 1999 Chevrolet Silverado, while, for unknown reasons, Robinette, operating a Go-Kart, was traveling west in the eastbound lane.
The two units impacted one another head on resulting in disabling damage to both vehicles and resulting in the death of Robinette. Price was wearing a seat belt and was not injured.
Trooper Schimp has asked that anyone who may have any information about the Go Kart or Mr. Robinette that may be pertinent to this collision is asked to contact him at PSP Kane at 814-778-5555.
Port Allegany and Roulette Fire Departments and Ambulances responded to the scene. Route 6 was closed for about 2 hours as a result of the crash.

DEP to Host April 2 Roundtable for Elk, Jefferson, McKean County Public Water Suppliers
DEP to Host April 2 Roundtable for Elk, Jefferson, McKean County Public Water Suppliers
Meadville –The Department of Environmental Protection announced today a Source Water Protection Coalition roundtable with community leaders and advocates in Elk, Jefferson and McKean counties, as part of an effort to further protect local water supply sources.
The Tuesday, April 2, meeting is aimed at public water suppliers, but is open to any municipality, authority or individual in the three counties. It will be at 10 a.m. at the Elk County Office of Emergency Services at 653 Montmorenci Road, Ridgway, PA 15853.
“This is an opportunity for communities to work together to provide a larger voice to ensure that water resources are protected now and preserved for future generations,” DEP Northwest Regional Director Kelly Burch said.
The Source Water Protection (SWP) program is a community-based, voluntary effort to protect drinking water sources used by community water systems. Local SWP programs are effective tools for public health protection, water supply security and managing operational and capital costs through improved and maintained source water quality.
“Many benefits can be realized through a coalition of this nature,” Burch said. “The benefits could include cost sharing; resource sharing; familiarization with similar water systems; shared education and outreach approaches; partnerships; and increased communication between agencies, businesses and organizations affiliated with our public drinking water sources.”
For more information about the meeting or the SWP program, visit www.dep.state.pa.us or contact Jacob Moore, DEP Northwest Regional Office, at 814-332-6176 or jacmoore@pa.gov.

DEP Fines Lancaster County Landfill $108,686 for Waste Violations
DEP Fines Lancaster County Landfill $108,686 for Waste Violations
HARRISBURG -- The Department of Environmental Protection has fined Advanced Disposal Solutions, formerly known as Veolia Environmental Services, $108,686 for Solid Waste Management Act violations at the company’s landfill in Mount Joy Township, Lancaster County.
On Nov. 1, 2012, Veolia placed leachate tanks and a leachate handling system into service at the landfill without properly installing, certifying and testing the system according to regulations.
The company’s actions resulted in a 2,500-gallon release of untreated leachate, some of which entered an unnamed tributary to Little Chiques Creek. The discharge was not discovered until the landfill employees arrived the next morning.
A second release was discovered the morning of Nov. 23, 2012, when a cracked weld in a newly plumbed high-density plastic pipe resulted in the discharge of 4,600 gallons of leachate to the ground surface.
In both instances, Veolia failed to provide proper oversight while testing and placing the leachate management system into service.
The fine will be paid to the commonwealth’s Solid Waste Abatement Fund.
For more information, visit www.dep.state.pa.us or call 717-705-4706.

The club voted to buy a Shelter Box for $500. A Shelter Box includes a tent, cooking gear, basic tools, blankets, children's books and a water purification kit. These boxes are delivered to disaster areas within 24 hours. Rotary International tries to maintain an inventory of 50,000 boxes. Recently they were made available in N.Y. And N.J after Hurricane Sandy. The club also voted to set aside $250. to help the new interact club at the Galeton High School get started. The club also set aside funds to send two Interact Members to the Rotary District Conference in April. The conference will be held in Gettysburg. This is the 150th anniversary of the historic Battle of Gettysburg.
The results are in for the recent Four Way Test speech competition set up and developed by Rotarian Sarah Graber. Sarah is also a GHS English teacher. The first place winner is Zack Brown, second place went to Dan Hatch and third place to Josey Beck. Zach will be moving on to the regional competition in Clearfield on April 6 All of the GHS participants gave excellent talks. A really fine group of students.
Phyliss Conable was in charge of the program. She presented Lacey Kennedy and Debra McGlaun key staff members of Highland Chocolate Company located in Wellsboro. They gave an excellent overview of this exciting and growing business. Highland is a non profit chocolate manufacturing facility employing special needs individuals in a pre vocational dual business program. Presently 20 adults are employed by the company along with five staff members. The company is a part of the Partners in Progress program out of Mansfield. Many local businesses sell their excellent and tasty products and they now ship nationwide selling both wholesale and retail. It was a very interesting and tasty program.
The Galeton Rotary Club will turn 83 on March 25th and 56 years ago this month Galeton Rotary presented to a sellout crowd the famous Rotary minstrel show (2 performances) which was a fund raiser for the new Galeton School tennis courts. These courts have served the school well and produced many area championship teams.

Penny War Raises Big Buck$
Penny War Raises Big Buck$
The Enabling Gardens at Sweden Valley Manor debuted last spring to rave reviews by residents, visitors and staff. In order to expand them this year, Sweden Valley Manor engaged in war – a “Penny War” that is. Staff were divided into teams by department and shift and for one month competed to see who could finish with the most positive points (pennies count as positive points and silver coins and bills count as negative points). In the end $784.46 was raised. The dietary team claimed the first place prize of a luncheon.

Grell, Sabatina Launch Bipartisan Impeachment Investigation of Justice Orie Melvin
Grell, Sabatina Launch Bipartisan Impeachment Investigation of Justice Orie Melvin
HARRISBURG – Rep. Glen Grell (R-Cumberland) and Rep. John Sabatina (D-Philadelphia) announced today the introduction of a resolution authorizing a bipartisan impeachment investigation of Supreme Court Justice Joan Orie Melvin.
“We take no pleasure in considering the impeachment of a Supreme Court justice,” said Grell. “This entire situation is unfortunate for everyone involved: Justice Orie Melvin, her family and the citizens of the Commonwealth. But our constitutional duty to uphold the integrity of our courts and to preserve the public’s confidence in our system of justice remains.”
Sabatina, a former assistant district attorney in Philadelphia, added, “It is important that due process be allowed to work regarding the justice’s right to appeal her conviction; however, the House of Representatives has a duty of oversight regarding the conduct of the Supreme Court.”
On Feb. 21, Orie Melvin was found guilty of several criminal counts, including thefts of services, conspiracy and the misappropriation of state property. She remains suspended without pay by the Court of Judicial Discipline. If the court finds that Orie Melvin has violated the rules of professional conduct or the Constitution, or has brought disrepute to the judicial system, she could be removed from the bench and banned from serving ever again.
“Our resolution does not circumvent the judicial process already under way because we believe Justice Orie Melvin is entitled to full due process,” said Grell. “Instead, it puts a framework into place in case those proceedings break down or are delayed. It would permit the legislature to impeach Justice Orie Melvin if the evidence and circumstances warrant it.”
“It is the responsibility of the legislature to impeach a justice who has been convicted of a crime,” said Sabatina. “Pennsylvania has been without a full Supreme Court for long enough, and the process must move forward so that trust can be re-established in our system.”
Grell and Sabatina noted that the process authorized by their resolution is the same one put into place during the investigation of Supreme Court Justice Rolf Larsen in 1993.

Think About It
Jesus Loves You
Jesus loves you is a great thought but how often do we see it tangibly played out? We can know it in our heads, but practically speaking, do we really believe it?
I try to live each day with the awareness that Jesus does love me and that he has promised to give me wisdom and guidance through his Holy Spirit. Such was the case the other day when my wife and I were traveling. We had stopped for gas and after getting back on the Interstate with my truck pulling a 30’ fifth wheel camper, I noticed that the battery gauge seemed to indicate that it was discharging. Now I can tell you that my first thought was that I didn’t want to breakdown on the Interstate pulling a fifth wheel, but where do I go? What exit should I take considering that most of the gas stations are not repair shops? After all, breaking down with the truck is one thing, breaking down with the truck and fifth wheel is a completely different matter. So as we drove, we prayed, Jesus show us which exit to take. As we exited the Interstate, we looked for a repair shop but couldn’t see anything. Suddenly I noticed a sign on a side hill, “Jesus Loves You”, and at the bottom of that hill was an auto parts store. Halleluiah, since I probably could fix the problem myself, this was just what I needed.
It turned out that this was the only auto parts store for miles and they had everything I needed. The problem? Turned out to be the battery cable going to the starter had grounded out against the frame. The only thing I needed, which I didn’t have, was a jack and jack stand so that I could get under the truck. Two hours later we were back on the road and on to our destination.
Here’s the point. I believe that God will direct our steps if we ask and believe. That means a walk of faith. Is it easy? No, not always as I have found that God works according to his timetable and not ours. That means it will always be at the right time but we must be patient and wait for it. For most of us, we don’t want to wait, so we try to do things our way. Although our way may get results, it is never as good as his and may only mean we’ll have to go around the mountain again. Think about it.

Thompson Agriculture Subcommittee Examines National Forest System Management and Its Impact on Rural Economies
“Our National Forest system is currently threatened by land mismanagement, invasive species outbreaks, endless litigation preventing productive land use, including expanded timber harvests and natural resource development, and a host of other problems that result in fewer jobs, more fire-prone forests, and communities struggling to make ends meet,” stated Rep. Thompson. “Today, the subcommittee brought together forestry stakeholders to identify obstacles to a stronger National Forest management system and ways to expand rural job creation through healthier and more productive forests.”
National Forest timber harvests have been in decline in recent years. The all-time high was 12.7 billion board feet in 1987, but dipped to its lowest level at 1.7 in 2002. This drop not only has a negative effect on forest management, but also results in tens of millions of dollars in lost sales at the detriment of local communities and the U.S. Treasury.
USFS Chief Tom Tidwell fielded questions from subcommittee members on efforts by the USFS to increase multiple-use practices, including timber harvests, and also discussed a recent report from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) highlighting the agency’s goal to increase annual timber harvests. (Click here to view Chief Tidwell’s written testimony)
“The economic impact of the lower harvest has led to a decline in the local hardwood lumber industry,” stated Ken Kane. “Since 1995 the hardwood industry in the Allegheny National Forest region has declined over fifty percent. In order to maintain a healthy relationship between rural communities and National Forests, the National Forests should be managed using sustainable methods. This will assure the long term health of the National Forest, rural communities, the forest products industry and the adjacent private lands.”
“This process is about where we are today and where we need to be in order to have healthy forests and growing forest communities,” Rep. Thompson added. “I want to thank our witnesses for their testimony, including Mr. Ken Kane from Pennsylvania and Forest Chief Tom Tidwell. I look forward to working with the U.S. Forest Service and all local stakeholders as this subcommittee prescribes future policy reforms to improve forest management and expand multiple-use land practices.”
