    • Deny Flaming Gorge pipeline permit, say river businesses and advocates (2011/12/19)
      The Flaming Gorge pipeline would be far too expensive and would harm the Green River’s world-class recreation and tourism economies, businesses and river advocates said today. American Rivers, American Whitewater, and the Colorado River Outfitters Association called on the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to deny a private developer’s preliminary permit application for the massive water project.
    • Hopes Head Upstream for Water in Colorado River (2011/11/21)
      The Colorado River basin presents the greatest water management challenges of any river basin in the nation, with ever-expanding demands for multiple water uses, water demand exceeding supply, valued but fragile ecosystems, and support for nearly every type of water-relevant interest. The importance of instream flows – the amount of water flowing in a stream or river – is more pressing than ever, but in many parts of the basin, all water is spoken for.
    • White Salmon River to run free tomorrow with breach of Condit Dam (2011/10/25)

    • So much for open government: National Biological Information Infrastructure program to get axe (2011/10/7)
      National Biological Information Infratructure home page MECHANICSVILLE, Va. — My apologies to those who have already seen my Facebook pages and listserv posts about this.  I just learned from David Inouye, moderator of the ECOLOG-L list, that the National Biological Information Infrastructure program will be terminated in January. According to the NBII Web site : In the 2012 President’s Budget Request, the National Biological Information Infrastructure (NBII) is terminated. As a result, all resources, databases, tools, and applications within this web site will be removed on January 15, 2012. For more information, please refer to the NBII Program Termination page . This seems an affront to the principle of open government — certainly a retreat from past progress in that area — an...
    • A GOP war on the environment, II: Ken Cuccinelli vs. climate change (2011/3/30)
      Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli speaks at the annual Jewish Advocacy Day luncheon in Feburary. (Office of the Attorney General) MECHANICSVILLE, Va. — Last year, Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli made himself a hero to climate change sceptics worldwide by calling into question the science of climate change. One of his first shots against climate change occurred in December 2009 before he took office. In his newsletter, Cuccinelli Compass, he claimed that seasonal winter weather—snowstorms—was inconvenient for those who believe in anthropogenic (man-made) global warming (AGW). Shortly after he assumed office, he launched two high-profile legal cases. The first was launched in February 2010 when he filed two petitions: one asking asking the U.S. Environmental Protection...
    • A GOP war on the environment? (2011/3/9)
      One of the 112th Congress’s earliest environmental accomplishments — bringing plastics back to the cafeteria. (Brendan Buck) MECHANICSVILLE, Va. — Environmental protection programs took a disproportionate hit in the recent congressional debate over H.R. 1, a continuing resolution to fund the federal government the rest of the current fiscal year. The core resolution proposed to slash funding for the Environmental Protection Agency by 30 percent—the largest cut, percentage-wise, of any federal government agency. Amendments to H.R. 1 were even more drastic: among other things, they would prohibit the EPA from regulating greenhouse gases and from implementing water-pollution controls in the Chesapeake Bay watershed and in Florida. In a smaller, yet symbolically significant move, the ...
    • The Chesapeake Bay funding vote: Reaction and accountability (2011/2/23)
      Henry Potter was the villain who tried to ruin George Bailey, the hero of “It’s a Wonderful Life.” MECHANICSVILLE, Va. — Check out how the The Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star began an editorial response to the House approval of Rep. Bob Goodlatte’s (R-Va.) amendment to prevent federal funding of the EPA’s Chesapeake  Bay restoration effort: REP. BOB GOODLATTE, R– Roanoke, seems the sort of fellow who would prefer Pottersville to Bedford Falls. In the classic movie “It’s a Wonderful Life,” Pottersville was what Bedford Falls would have become had George Bailey not provided townspeople an opportunity to invest in their town and make it a pleasant place to live. … At the time of the last TCR post on the matter, the roll call data were not available. It is now, so it see...
    • House approves amendment to prohibit federal funding of Chesapeake Bay restoration plan (2011/2/19)
      Rep. Bob Goodlatte MECHANICSVILLE, Va. — The House voted late tonight to approve a budget amendment by Rep. Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) that would prohibit federal funding for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Chesapeake Bay restoration plan. Goodlatte’s amendment to the House continuing resolution (H.R. 1), mandates that “None of the funds made avail­able by this Act may be used to develop, pro­mul­gate, eval­u­ate, imple­ment, pro­vide over­sight to, or back­stop total max­i­mum daily loads or water­shed imple­men­ta­tion plans for the Chesa­peake Bay Watershed.” The Washington Post reports that the amendment passed 230–195, with eight Democrats joining 222 Republicans voting in favor of the resolution and 15 Republicans joining 180 Democrats opposing it. ...
    • Budget amendment may torpedo Chesapeake Bay restoration plan (2011/2/18)
      Satellite image of the Chesapeake Bay watershed (USGS) MECHANICSVILLE, Va. — Weeks after the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced a plan to restore the Chesapeake Bay by putting it on a strict “pollution diet,” a Virginia congressman has introduced a budget amendment that would prevent the use of federal funds to carry the plan out. Republican Rep. Bob Goodlatte, who represents Virginia’s 6th District, introduced an amendment to the House funding bill that states that, “None of the funds made available by this Act may be used to develop, promulgate, evaluate, implement, provide oversight to, or backstop total maximum daily loads or watershed implementation plans for the Chesapeake Bay Watershed.” The move to cut Bay restoration funding comes amid a GOP-driven effort ...
    • Editorial reflection: Why this Blog? (2011/2/13)
      I’m pressing a milkweed I collected near El Cerrito, N.M., in the fall of 1983. (Copy­right © 1983 Richard L. Nostrand) MECHANICSVILLE, Va. — Every now and then a news publication (in the traditional and 21st century senses) should rethink its mission. Why does it exist? What audience does it serve? Does it serve that audience well? The time for such reflection (personal inventory for those of you familiar with 12-step programs) has come to The Chickahominy Report . The topic — the environment — arises from a long personal evolution. I began as a youth with a strong interest in the nature and the natural sciences. Raised a Roman Catholic, I chose St. Francis of Assisi as my confirmation saint for a reason. While I no longer practice that religion, I stand by my veneration of the...
    • Review: Shooting in the Wild (2010/11/24)
      Chris Palmer Shooting in the Wild: An Insider’s Account of Making Movies in the Animal Kingdom San Francisco: Sierra Club Books, 2010 ISBN: 978–1-57805–148-91. 223+xxiii pp. $24.95 (US) MECHANICSVILLE, Va. — On September 22, an article in The Washington Post touched off a vigorous discussion on ECOLOG-L, a popular scientific listserv sponsored by the Ecological Society of America, about “naturefaking” in environmental films and documentaries. The story, which appeared under the somewhat misleading headline, “Wildlife filmmaker Chris Palmer shows that animals are often set up to succeed [1] ,” discussed some of the issues raised in Palmer’s new book, Shooting in the Wild: An Insider’s Account of Making Movies in the Animal Kingdom . Shooting in the Wild: An Insider’s ...
    • Flooding leads to closure of shellfish harvesting in two Va. rivers (2010/1/29)
      Portion of the James River affected by emergency closure of shellfish harvest. MECHANICSVILLE, Va. — The Virginia Department of Health has closed portions of two Virginia rivers to shellfish harvesting because of potential pollution in floodwaters triggered by heavy rains in western Virginia. The affected rivers are the James and Rappahannock. All of the lower James River, from the vicinity of Hog Point in Hog Island State Wildlife Management Area to the vicinity of the Monitor-Merrimac Memorial Bridge-Tunnel is closed. The closed portion of the Rappahannock extends from the vicinity of Accopatough Beach in Richmond County down to a line between Monaskon in Lancaster County and Stove Point in Middlesex County. The emergency closures apply only to bivalve mollusks — such as oysters, mu...
    • Explosives spill shuts down North Carolina port (2010/1/12)
      Placards like this are used to mark containers containing potentially explosive materials. MECHANICSVILLE, Va. — The port of Morehead City, N.C., has been closed this morning because of a leak of the explosive PETN. Morehead City Mayor Jerry Jones told CNN about noon today that the leak has been contained. Chief Petty Officer Mike Hvozda (USCG) said the PETN was released from nine heavy cardboard-sided containers — each with a capacity of about two cubic feet — that were punctured by a forklift while unloading a ship at the port early this morning. As a result of the leak, officials ordered a voluntary evacuation of downtown Morehead City. They recommended that citizens who chose not to leave stay inside and away from windows. In addition, the U.S. Coast Guard established a two-naut...
    • Apologies for the hiatus (2010/1/10)
      Gratuitous beach photo: A woman views the sunset at First Encounter Beach, Cape Cod, Massachusetts. (Copyright © 2010 David M. Lawrence) MECHANICSVILLE, Va. — Anyone who has looked at this blog has noticed that nothing has been posted here in a long time. Some of you have e-mailed me and asked “Why?” I face the same problem that many freelance journalists do: These days, it “pays” to blog, yet it really doesn’t $PAY$ to blog. In other words, blogs are a way to become more visible and to do the kind of reportage we really want to do; but our blogs don’t — at least in the short run — generate the income we need to pay the bills, which includes paying for the blog. In my case, I had some drop-dead deadlines to meet toward the end of last summer, then I was offered the oppo...

Chapman Norfolk Southern (757) 629-2713 RICHMOND, VA. – The cleanup of almost 2 million railroad ties from a site in Radford brings to an end a multi-year effort to clear the former industrial location and eliminate a potential environmental concern. Norfolk Southern Railway Co. completed removal of the ties earlier this month, delivering on a long-standing offer to the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality to transport the ties for free if a suitable disposal site could be found. Norfolk Southern’s work, which took about five months, means that 7 acres of industrial property with rail service and utilities are now available for revitalization. “Norfolk Southern des...

    • SOPA and PIPA sound good, but read the fine print! (2012/1/18)
      Who wouldn't want to be against piracy? But the legislation before Congress today, goes too far. The "Stop Online Piracy Act" and the "Protect IP Act" could fundamentally change the Internet, as we know it—limiting the openness and creativity of the Internet that our communities have fought for. Among other things, these bills could censor websites, limit innovation, and kill jobs—outcomes that our communities cannot afford. NAPT's colleagues at the Center for Media Justice offer more information, but not today--as many websites are going dark--in protest against SOPA and PIPA.

    • The Power of Sundance (2012/1/10)
      This month is the 10-year anniversary of my first experience with the Sundance Film Festival . As a senior in High school in 2002, I had the honor of being selected to participate in the Gen-Y Studio, a former program that gave young filmmakers the opportunity to share ideas, explore filmmaking and learn about new technologies at the Sundance Film Festival. With other high school students from the United States and around the world, I had the opportunity to meet with representatives from national and international media organizations and Festival filmmakers to discuss the art of filmmaking and the role of media in society. Through my participation as a young filmmaker, I realized more clearly the power of film as a medium for self-expression and positive social change not only within Nati...

    • `Tis the season to share and remember (2011/12/17)
      A very Merry Christmas and happy holiday season to you all! One of the best things I’ve enjoyed as a journalist is the opportunity to learn how many folks – including native people – ring in the Yuletide cheer. I remember a Yankton Sioux recollecting his childhood in South Dakota, where an Indian Santa brought toys, food, and clothes, to the tribal community center in the 1950s. Kris Kringle told all the kids that he’d just arrived via flying saucer (sci-fi was big back then). I remember an Oneida recollecting how much she enjoyed sitting next to her grandparents’ wood-burning stove during those infamously arctic Wisconsin winters….sipping hot chocolate sweetened with maple sugar, and hearing tribal creation legends passed down through oral tradition. I also remember a Mandan-...

    • imagineNative (2011/12/6)
      I recently attended the imagineNATIVE Film + Media Arts Festival, where my film, “Up Heartbreak Hill,” had its Canadian premiere. The festival was amazing – it ran from Oct. 19 – 23 in Toronto and was a whirlwind of films, panels and networking opportunities. The festival kicked off with a screening of “On the Ice” and “The Country of Wolves,” which were both phenomenal. At the opening night party, I had the chance to chat with a number of Khoi-San filmmakers and artists, who were there as a part of the delegation representing South Africa’s indigenous community. It was fascinating to learn about their struggle for rights and recognition, and the role that the arts have played in that journey. The next day, “Up Heartbreak Hill” screened to an audience that included c...

      With broad expanses of open marshes, cypress trees along much of its shoreline, and a diversity of fish species choose from, the Chickahominy River provides the angler with tidal river fishing at its finest. This river has supported a nationally recognized largemouth bass fishery for many decades. Although in recent years bass fishing was off somewhat, the largemouth population in the tidal Chickahominy has improved and anglers are again reporting excellent bass fishing in the tidal Chick. "Dipping herring" during the spring spawning run has been a tradition for many years at Walkers Dam, and the river herring run continues to draw many anglers to Walkers Dam each spring from early March through May. During the peak of the run, armed with bare gold hooks or small spoons, anglers ...
