Round Valley Reservoir in Clinton, New Jersey is a beautiful state park with a dark undercurrent - quite literally. Dozens of people have mysteriously disappeared since the 1970's. It has even garnered the nickname, New Jersey's Bermuda Triangle, from the many people who have disappeared without a trace from its waters. Many of these deaths were deemed accidental drownings but rumors of Native American curses and haunted beings at the bottom of the reservoir have long plagued NJ's deepest lake. Indeed, the remnants of an abandoned village, Round Valley, do actually lie below the surface. After a long drought period in the 1950s the state needed to create a water source and chose Round Valley. The residents of the small farming community were evicted by 1960 to make way for the flooding. Kelly spent the day at the reservoir to investigate the mysterious disappearances, and what she found was quite surprising. The land was indeed cursed, but not by any Natives or angry sea creatures. The town was unknowingly used by the government back in the 40s and 50s as a testing ground to experiment with directed energy weapons, standing scalar wave fields, and weather manipulation. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/warrior-of-truth--6035153/support.

November 7, 2022 — The Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution proclaiming a local emergency related to tree mortality last week. The Board also agreed to prioritize one water project per district and hire a consultant to organize what it will take to carry out the projects. Supervisor John Haschak noted that trees are dying off at an alarming rate in all the county's ecosystems, due in large part to increased aridity and bark beetles. The bark beetles, which have long plagued fir trees, are now also making inroads in redwood and hardwood forests, which haven't been stressed by the infestation until recently. He summed up what he hoped to accomplish with the resolution. “Not only do we need to replant trees, but we also need to create healthy forests,” he said. “That's one of the critical issues in combating this tree mortality, is that our forests are stressed, not only from the aridity, the drought, but also from overcrowding and some of those other issues. So we need to look at the holistic approach of how do we manage these forests, and how do we create healthy forests? So if we can get grant funding to do that and focus on those kinds of issues, that's what we're trying to get.” Haschak added that he expects the resolution will bring the county in line with neighboring jurisdictions and the rest of the state, which in 2014 declared a tree mortality emergency. The declaration eight years ago stated that “the scale of this tree die-off is unprecedented in modern history;” and predicted that it will contribute to wildfires that will release thousands of tons of pollutants and be beyond the capacities of the firefighting systems in place. Supervisor Ted Williams had a provocative and still unanswered question about dead standing trees. “Supervisor Haschak, do you think it's a good idea to continue poisoning trees, given that we already have so many dead from natural causes?” he asked. “Are you talking about Measure V?” Haschak asked. Williams clarified that he was, and Haschak replied, “Well, we weren't looking at that issue in this. We were looking at this global tree die-off that's happening, whether they're poisoned or not.” Elizabeth Salamone, the general manager of the Russian River Flood Control and Water Conservation Improvement District, offered a comment on how forest health is connected to water quality. “We need surface water and groundwater sustainability in order to support the forests,” she declared. “And there will be, and is, grant funding that supports nature-based solutions, which need to happen across many sectors, across many agencies, a lot of collaboration in that, so that water-based issues can work hand-in-hand with the reforestation.” Salamone was on hand to offer her services to help collect data from the county's 42 water agencies, after Supervisor Glenn McGourty presented on the five top priority water projects for a consultant to take up with a water agency, once the consultant is hired and the agency is up and running. An exact price tag for the agency remains elusive, but the county is working on a draft memorandum of understanding with the UC Cooperative Extension office, in hopes of taking some of the burden off of county staff. The extension plans to start recruiting for a hydrology and climate change advisor starting early next year. McGourty started with the first district, where he reported that a joint powers authority is working to consolidate the water districts of the Ukiah Valley. This is in keeping with the goals of the state water agencies, which he says have funding available for the purpose. In the second district, he cited groundwater recharge, which would divert some of the Russian River's overflow onto a flood plain, where, theoretically, it would infiltrate the water table. He suggested Riverside Park on the eastern end of Ukiah for a pilot project. He said the priority for the third district was mapping the groundwater basins, and reported that Round Valley has already received funding to start the task. He suggested more reservoirs for the fourth district, including floating solar panels to reduce evaporation and provide some power. For the fifth district, he said the top priority is the long-wished-for modernization or replacement of the wastewater treatment plant, which has a price tag of $4 million and is still in the conceptual design phase. Williams said the projects were not the final list, but that the Board asked for it to make sure that any funds for water projects were spread equally around the county. “Glenn came to us with a request for money,” he recalled; “and I think we said, it looks like it could all go to, say, the Potter Valley Project, and we need to make sure there's improvements all throughout the county. There's water problems everywhere, and the request was that Supervisor McGourty come back with a plan that provided a project in each district.” The Potter Valley Project, while not forgotten, remains uncertain. “You think we have trouble figuring our budget out,” McGourty said, after recapping the current state of affairs. ”This is something that's a much bigger puzzle.” Chantal Simonpietri, a private environmental consultant, had a process question. “I participated in the advisory group that was to form the water agency,” she said. “I don't know where that ended up. We spent a lot of time on calls with a very well-paid outside hired consulting group to facilitate that process. What I appreciated about that, though, was that it was truly a stakeholder-driven process and full stakeholder input. And my concern with this is…where is the stakeholder process that went into informing that these are the five priorities, like one per district?” McGourty acknowledged her points, saying, “Remember, this isn't a total list. These are just things that were kind of prioritized that I picked up from numerous drought ad hoc meetings that Supervisor Haschak and I convened last year and this year, and also involvement with the Ukiah Valley Groundwater Sustainability Agency and the Mendocino Inland Water and Power Commission. So it is stakeholder driven, but just not in an organized way.” The Board voted unanimously to approve the five proposed projects, hire a consultant, and outline the staff time needed for each project. Haschak expressed reservations before the vote. “We spent $307,000 on a consultant who should have done this work that we're talking about now,” he recalled. “That's why I'm hesitant to go the consultant route. But if that's what we need to do, that's what we need to do. We need a water agency. We have needs. And we need to be active in this grant game with the state.”

August 16: The Drought Task Force Committee met Monday morning to hammer out more details about how to form a water agency, now being called a water resource team. But questions about where the entity is going, and what it will ultimately do, remain. The formalization of the task force, which is now a Board of Supervisors standing committee currently meeting under the rubric of the Public Health, Safety, and Resource committee, is part of a state mandate to respond to the drought. While potable water and ag water are top of mind at the moment, the scope of the drought is immense. And the extent of local expertise is unknown, with regional experts scattered among 42 water agencies. There are no licensed hydrogeologists in Mendocino County, and hydrologists are thin on the ground. The county did not use all the funds from last year's $2 million grant from the State Department of Water Resources to haul water from Ukiah to Fort Bragg. That program was administered by the Department of Transportation, which is where the water agency is currently housed. DoT Director Howard Dashiell gave committee members Supervisors John Haschak and Glenn McGourty an update on the remaining money. “If you just look at the contract commitment we've got, like, eight or nine hundred thousand dollars for sure that's available, but if we don't start hauling water and we don't meet some of those contract commitments, it could be a million. Those are the estimates…I looked at the grant eligible activities, and didn't see a lot of flexibility there. Some of the other things like, I know the community would really like to do groundwater monitoring in many of our basins, and trying to get a handle on what the capacity of some of our aquifers are, I didn't see those kinds of activities, which have been popular in the past, as eligible under that particular grant.” In the meantime, the state is opening up applications for $300 million in urban grant awards, and Round Valley won a grant of close to half a million dollars to monitor groundwater in Covelo. For now, the Board of Supervisors has agreed to work with the UC Davis Cooperative Extension to hire a consultant to come up with proposals for countywide water projects. The process of hiring the consultant could take four or five months. The county hired GEI Consultants last year to work on establishing a standalone water agency. Depending on how much more work they do on their current $306,000 contract, there is between $40,000 and $80,000 left over. Dashiell told the committee what he's looking for, in response to his request for proposals from a consultant. “A lot of times I'll put out a proposal for a bridge — I'm sorry to keep using road and bridge examples, because that's really what I know,” he began. “But I know I want to get from this side of the river to the other side. And often I'll get a proposal that just blows my socks off on how to do that. So to some extent I'm looking for whoever proposes on this, how to take this bucket of things we said we want, and gives us a nice proposal on how to do that. And obviously, that'll be translated into a contract the Board and the public will get to look at.” Devon Boer, the Executive Director of the Mendocino County Farm Bureau, wants more clarity on who will be responsible for what. “In terms of the consultant, I'm still not 100% clear on what role UC potentially could play,” she said. “Who is going to be in the role of the standard everyday water agency requirements related to the quagga zebra mussels, some of the issues with water rights up here on the east side of Ukiah, the USGS gauge and other things, are sort of the everyday responsibilities of the water agency…if there's going to be money expense, we want to see it be productive and complementary to what's happening, and at this point in time, I'm just not sure, personally, where this is going.” During the budget workshops, the Board authorized $250,000 from the PG&E settlement funds for the water agency. Earlier this month, they agreed to spend up to $190,000 a year on assembling the team. If the money is not spent, it will go back into the PG&E fund. Jim Shields, the manager of the Laytonville County Water District, urged the committee to compile the expertise he says the county already has, and argued for a five-member technical advisory committee that would prioritize capital projects. “Water production is overseen and managed by local government public utility professionals who are the true experts in water related matters,” he said. “They're the most valuable resource the county has available to rely and depend on at this time for their expertise and professional insights into water related matters. What we need to do is send out a letter to all the water agencies in the county, requesting they get this information to us…I believe this is something we need to get started as soon as possible.” Deborah Edelman, the water program manager at the Mendocino County Resource Conservation District, said the water resource team will be just one part of the drought response. “Once the water agency is up and running, it's going to be addressing things beyond just getting water into taps,” she told the Board. “Including stormwater management, including invasive species, like the quagga zebra mussels, and, as Supervisor McGourty mentioned, eventually, almost certainly, flooding. So the scope of work is more than just the current emergency of drought and getting water to people and farms. So I just wanted to mention that. And one thing that was not reflected in the GEI implementation plan is that much of the boots on the ground work that's being done by the water agency in those areas, such as the quagga zebra mussel monitoring, is currently being done by the Resource Conservation District, in our contract with the water agency.” Most of the people who called in to the meeting were part of a countywide steering committee assembled by GEI Consultants to provide information about regional water issues and make suggestions as to what's most needed. Many of them argued against hiring a consultant again, but the Board of Supervisors already voted 3-2, with Supervisors Dan Gjerde and Haschak dissenting, in favor of McGourty's proposal to hire someone who would help put together a team. “At the end of this consultant's term, the county will be left with, not a stand-alone water agency, but a team,” Dashiell summarized.

June 24, 2021--Michelle Hutchins, County Superintendent of Schools, interviews Round Valley High School Senior Gerald Britton. Britton shares the experience of his internship with KEET TV in Eureka and the Public Broadcasting Service which gave Britton the opportunity to make his movie titled, “From Ridge to River and From Fish to Fire.” That's Inside Education, listen live Thursdays at 3pm on KZYX and Z.

June 8, 2021 — As the region heads into a massive drought and the start of fire season, there are some signs of optimism about humanity's ability to reverse some of the damage it's done. Gerald “Bam” Britton, a senior at Round Valley High School in Covelo, recently made a film with a title that sounds like a line from a poem about nature. From River to Ridge and From Fish to Fire is a series of interviews with scientists and Tribal elders about the relationship between fire and water, different trees on the landscape, and the now-scant runs of salmon and steelhead in the Eel. Britton won an internship from the Public Broadcasting Service through KEET TV in Eureka earlier this year, and worked with the Eel River Recovery Project to meet up with interviewees in the field. Last week, he was featured on the PBS Student Media Showcase for his work about cultural response to climate change. Britton is headed off to Northwest Indian College in Washington to major in Native Environmental Science. He got a head start on that, in his interview with Vernon “Woods” Wilson, a former Cahto Tribal chair and champion of controlled burns. Wilson explained how fir trees in the lower Tenmile Creek, which are no longer controlled by prescribed burns, suck up huge amounts of water and then choke out the oaks, which are a keystone species.

Today we take a huge deviation for the type of topic we typically cover here on Timesuck. The Space Lizards on Patreon vote on two topics a month through the app, and for today, they voted in my grandfather who passed away back on December 23rd. Probably the most influential person in my life. Today, I cover how the Hall family ended up in Idaho which leads to a history of Idaho settlement. My great-great-grandfather was one of the area's first homesteaders. I also share a lot of stories from my childhood, about central Idaho, and of course Papa Ward. I take you on a timeline of this man's wonderful, inspiring life. He meant a Hell of a lot to me and always will, and I think you'll like the tale of his impressive life.

Welcome to our first JERS-day episode! Known locally as the "Bermuda Triangle of New Jersey", Round Valley Reservoir has always been a popular spot for families, swimmers, hikers, campers, fisherman and boaters. But with 26 cases of deaths and missing persons, it is possible that something dark exists under the surface of this manmade lake. Is it cursed? Is there paranormal presence? ALIENS? Thanks to a post from our favorite publication Weird NJ for freaking us out about our childhood fun spot and inspiring this episode!

Matt chats with Cheryl about her organization’s work protecting and preserving land in Park City, Summit County and beyond. They talk primarily about the current drive to preserve Bonanza Flats, a 1,350 acre parcel in the Wasatch which will be developed if local governments and nonprofits can’t raise $38 million by June 15. After a huge commitment from Park City—of $25 million— and significant gifts from others (if not Salt Lake County), the broad coalition fighting to preserve the land is now about $3 million short. Cheryl also discussed how quickly the Park City area has grown and changed and her organization’s many successes in preserving key land around the area, including the popular Round Valley area. For more information, or to donate to Bonanza Flats, visit the land conservancy’s Website.
