With new Hinsdale-Brattleboro bridge on horizon, committee plans old spans' future

With the completion of a new bridge connecting Hinsdale to Brattleboro still several years away, a local subcommittee is already hard at work to determine the future of the existing bridges between the two towns.

Remember this wasn't the original names of the bridges. I think it had no name. I wonder when the new bridge inspection is comming. Remember it was red listed last year. It should have been on the highly politicalized list for many decades.    

Named after Charles Dana and Anna Hunt Marsh, the Route 119 bridges are Pennsylvania truss-style spans built in 1920 and rehabilitated in 1988. A new bridge is set to be built several hundred feet downstream, with construction slated to begin next year and finish in 2023.

A project to replace the bridges has been included in New Hampshire’s 10-year transportation improvement plan since fiscal year 1994, with its start date being delayed several times.

A subcommittee comprising representatives from both communities has been meeting to discuss the existing bridges for a little more than a year, according to J.B. Mack, principal planner for the Southwest Region Planning Commission. Mack said he’s facilitating the committee process to gather feedback and input from community stakeholders.

An environmental assessment document created as part of the state’s overall bridge replacement project identified the existing bridges as a historic “extension of downtown Brattleboro,” according to Mack. That document proposes using the bridges for pedestrian and bicycle use.

I never seen the term "Hinsdale Island" before. It was once termed as Island Park. It seems the floating name of the island is a open question. As with everything in this area very little public information gets to the public including metting times and dates.  

The subcommittee is also looking at the future of Hinsdale Island, which connects the two bridges, Mack said. After speaking with the N.H. Department of Environmental Services, it appears that extensive construction on the island would not be possible because it is in the floodplain zone and is primarily composed of alluvial deposits.

“They’ve talked about maybe putting a gazebo or having a park out there, but in terms of intensive development, it doesn’t look like it’s a good idea,” Mack said.

The group is also looking at the possibility of creating a trail loop connecting the old and new bridges that would allow pedestrians and bicyclists to cross on one bridge and return on the other, he said.

“We’ve talked about working with local groups to do some interpretive signage where basically people can learn more about the history of the river, or people that used to live on the river,” he said. “The native Abenaki has been one idea, and sort of the industrial past of Brattleboro.”

Funding is still being secured for the refurbishment of the existing bridges, according to Mack, but the N.H. Department of Transportation has applied for a federal BUILD Grant for the project.

The subcommittee has met three times so far, according to Mack. At this point, there is no concrete timeline for the group to complete its work, he said, but members plan to continue brainstorming before ultimately bringing their proposal to the community for feedback.

“We’ve got quite a bit of time to do our planning, but at the same time, it’s so close especially to Brattleboro that it’s an important resource, and we’ve got to start planning for it as soon as possible,” he said.

The Existing Bridges Subcommittee plans to meet again in August, Mack said, but a specific date and time have not yet been set. Once scheduled, information about the next meeting, along with general information about the wider bridge replacement project, will be available at www.nh.gov/dot/projects/hinsdalebrattleboro12210.

Nuclear Agency Considers Reducing Inspections

Nuclear Agency Considers Reducing Inspections Of Reactors
Opponents denounce the cost-cutting move as a threat to public safety.
 

Associated Press 

The construction site of Vogtle Units 4 at the Alvin W. Vogtle Electric Generating Plant is see on March 22, 2019 in Waynesboro, Ga. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission will look at cutting back on inspections of the country’s nuclear reactors. 

WASHINGTON (AP) — Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff is recommending that the agency cut back on inspections at the country’s nuclear reactors, a cost-cutting move promoted by the nuclear power industry but denounced by opponents as a threat to public safety.

The recommendations, made public Tuesday, include reducing the time and scope of some annual inspections at the nation’s 90-plus nuclear power plants. Some other inspections would be cut from every two years to every three years.

Some of the staff’s recommendations would require a vote by the commission, which has a majority of members appointed or reappointed by President Donald Trump, who has urged agencies to reduce regulatory requirements for industries.

The nuclear power industry has prodded regulators to cut inspections, saying the nuclear facilities are operating well and that the inspections are a financial burden for power providers. Nuclear power, like coal-fired power, has been struggling in market completion against cheaper natural gas and rising renewable energy. 

While Tuesday’s report made clear that there was considerable disagreement among the nuclear agency’s staff on the cuts, it contended the inspection reduction “improves efficiency while still helping to ensure reasonable assurance of adequate protection to the public.”

Commission member Jeff Baran criticized the proposed changes Tuesday, saying reducing oversight of the nuclear power industry “would take us in the wrong direction.”

“NRC shouldn’t perform fewer inspections or weaken its safety oversight to save money,” Baran said.

The release comes a day after Democratic lawmakers faulted the NRC’s deliberations, saying they had failed to adequately inform the public of the changes under consideration.

“Cutting corners on such critical safety measures may eventually lead to a disaster that could be detrimental to the future of the domestic nuclear industry,” Rep. Frank Pallone, D-N.J., chair of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, and other House Democrats said in a letter Monday to NRC Chairwoman Kristine Svinicki.

Asked for comment Tuesday, NRC spokespeople pointed to the staff arguments for the changes in the report. Trimming overall inspections “will improve effectiveness because

There is a common definition of a word and the industry's and nrc's definitions of words. "Safety" and "significance" are such slimy words. Those words means anything the agency wants?  

inspectors again will be focused on issues of greater safety significance,” staffers told commission members in the recommendations.

Edwin Lyman, a nuclear-power expert at the nonprofit Union of Concerned Scientists, faulted the reasoning of commission staff that the good performance of much of the nuclear power industry warranted cutting back on agency inspections for problems and potential problems.

“That completely ignores the cause-and-effect relationship between inspections and good performances,” Lyman said.

Brattleboro-Hinsdale Bridge: My Vision of a New Island Park.

Update

I will probably get a email from Brattleboro Reformer I am infringing again on their newspaper copy rights. But are they a newspaper?

***Right, I been thinking what to do with this Park since I parked my ass next to the bridges during my protesting days. I was the first one who conceived of this project.

'Pie in the sky' vision for island, bridges

Posted Tuesday, July 16, 2019 7:51 pm

By Bob Audette, Brattleboro Reformer

BRATTLEBORO — While the new bridge connecting Hinsdale, N.H., to downtown Brattleboro won't be complete until the fall of 2023, discussions are underway as to what to do with the two existing bridges and the island between them.

On Tuesday, the Existing Bridges Committee, which is a subcommittee of the Hinsdale-to-Brattleboro Project Advisory Committee, met at the Brattleboro Municipal Building to begin the process of deciding how the bridges and the island might be used once traffic is diverted to the new bridge.

The replacement bridge will cross the Connecticut River at the traffic signal for George's Field on the New Hampshire side and will land on the Vermont side, on Route 142, just south of the parking lot for 28 Vernon St., which was formerly known as the Marlboro College Graduate Center.

When asked why the old bridges shouldn't just be removed, J.B. Mack, Principal Planner for the Southwest Region Planning Commission, said as part of the environmental review for the replacement bridge, the Anna Hunt Marsh and the Charles Dana bridges were characterized as part of the historical heritage of the region.

"The state historical agencies also thought it made sense to keep the bridges," he said. "Some people disagree with that assessment, but that's a major milestone in getting federal funding for the project."

While there is debate on whether the bridges should stay or go, said Brattleboro Assistant Town Manager Patrick Moreland, the scope of the the Existing Bridges Committee "assumes the bridges will stay and people will have access to the island."

Moreland noted that the overall goals for the main project we were established in 2013. 

They included: Maintaining a transportation corridor between the two towns; fixing the safety, structural and functional deficiencies of the existing corridor; maintaining area social and economic relationships; preserving the integrity of area resources; and conserving fiscal resources.

Notably, "The Brattleboro/Hinsdale transportation corridor has numerous natural and cultural resources that contribute to the social, economic, environmental, and aesthetic qualities of the area," states "Purpose and Needs" statement for the project.

"To the extent possible," said Moreland, "we should consider minimizing the impact on the local taxpayers. There's going to be considerable money spent here, but it's important to consider ways in which to have it not hit the tax base in Brattleboro or Hinsdale."

The cost for the entire project is $50 million, with $26 million coming from New Hampshire, $4 million from Vermont and $20 million from either a federal grant or low-interest loans.

Robert Landry, the administrator for the Bridge Design Division of the N.H. Department of Transportation, said rehabilitating the existing bridges for pedestrian use is estimated to cost $8 million, which is included in the $50 million price tag.

How much it will cost to maintain the bridges and how long they will last after the new bridge is open is being studied and those numbers should be available soon, said Landry.

Who will be responsible for the upkeep of the bridges and any improvements to the island, which might include signage, lighting and some sort of low-impact event space, has yet to be determined. Currently, the state of New Hampshire owns the bridges and the island, and Hinsdale has shown little interest in assuming ownership, and the accompanying fiscal responsibility. The town of Brattleboro has also indicated it doesn't want to own the bridges or the island.

"There is an ongoing discussion, not at this committee's level, working toward resolving who ultimately will be the owners," said Moreland, adding how much it will cost to maintain the bridges and the island will help to inform that decision.

Nonetheless, said Moreland, it's important to define a vision for the space when the bridges are closed in 2023.

"What do we aspire to?" asked Mack. "The possibilities are wide open."

The committee spent some time discussing the recreational opportunities afforded by the bridges and the island, including access to hiking and biking trails on both sides of the Connecticut River and access to the river itself, such as for swimmers and kayakers and canoeists.

Moreland noted that whatever happens with the existing bridges, the community needs to know that the bridges and the island will be "clean and safe."

Currently, the island is being used as a camping spot for the homeless and for drug use. The Hinsdale Police Department has conducted sweeps on the island to clear the campers out, but they usually return.

"Actually making it a more active destination as opposed to people moving through the site like now, would be better for keeping it clean and safe," noted Kathy Urffer, a river steward with the Connecticut River Conservancy. "A little conscious development might go a long way, such as interpretive signs, maybe a deck or a vista where people could sit and paint or look at the river."

The committee agreed the area could be used for cultural events such as small concerts or museum exhibits, but expressed concerns about crowds that might be attracted to the island and the lack of bathrooms.

Porta poddies? NH is spending the most money on the project and the Brattleboro Refomer is soley allowing the Brattleboro losers to publically discuss these issues.   

"The number of people who can be on that island is limited," said Moreland.

"Pie in the sky," said Marion Major, a planner with the Windham Regional Commission, "we'd love to have events staged here with an extremely low-maintenance event space."

"It's important to keep it pretty broad," agreed Mack. "The next step is to get the public involved."

The committee discussed ways to get people involved and how best to solicit ideas from the public. They agreed that public meetings were a good starting point, but also suggested setting up information booths at local farmers markets and events.

The planning commissions also hope to set up an online commenting tool for people who can't make the meetings or don't necessarily like to speak in public.

Mack said if people want to submit ideas for the existing bridges or the island right now, or have any ideas on how to reach the committee can reach out to the public, they should email him at jbmack@swrpc.org.

Fermi: Overwhelmed By Problems And The Complexity of the Plant

Update July 15

The below list comes from the back of the inspection report. So Fermi identified severe corrosion in the 2018 outage and they put in a "WO" (work order)to fix the it. I highlighted in red the titles.

Check out all the cards on the CDRM system? The control rod drive system scrams, shutdowns and starts up the plant. The extent of the CDRM troubles is startling!!!!
