The $100,000 Rushaway S. was the lead-in race to the Spiral S. (G3) at Turfway Park on Saturday, and James Covello and James Dolan's SWIFT WARRIOR (First Samurai) easily captured his synthetic debut when posting a geared down two-length victory in the 1 1/16-mile test.
Grabbing command soon after the start, the John Terranova runner proceeded to lead the way through splits of :24 2/5, :48 4/5 and 1:13 1/5 under jockey Javier Castellano. Drawing off to a four-length advantage in the stretch, the chestnut colt geared down in the final yards to stop the clock in 1:45 3/5 over the Polytrack.
"We had a beautiful trip," Castellano said. "John told me, 'Put him on the lead and improve your position,' and that's exactly what he did. He had been training so good at Palm Meadows. I worked him one time and really liked the horse.
"It's unbelievable. He was in the lead, just galloped along. It was beautiful. The thing I liked best is when I asked him he responded and took off again."
Swift Warrior earned his first stakes victory in the Rushaway, having placed second in last year's Foolish Pleasure S. at Calder and third in that venue's Tropical Park Derby on New Year's Day. He's made just one start since that latter race, finishing fourth but placed eighth via disqualification in the Dania Beach S., and was making his first start in this spot for Terranova after being initially conditioned by Steven Dwoskin.
"We originally were pointing for the Spiral but we wanted to take a more conservative route," Terranova said. "He's nice and fresh. We wanted to see how he liked the synthetic surface, so we may go to the April 16 Blue Grass (G1). He's nominated for it. This race will set him up nicely for that."
When asked about the Kentucky Derby (G1), Terranova responded, "You never know. We'll see how he is the next few weeks. He's a smart horse. We know he has some of the tools. We'll need to see if he has them all. We know he's a solid three-year old."
Swift Warrior can now claim $136,810 in earnings to go along with his 12-3-2-5 mark.
Finishing second in the Rushaway was 6-5 favorite Crimson China (Giant's Causeway), who suffered trouble in his stakes debut.
"He stumbled out of the gate, after that I had to make him run a little early. It was enough to cost my position and a chance to win," jockey Alan Garcia explained.
Though he didn't win, the runner-up effort was more than enough to ensure the Graham Motion trainee will have another shot at Swift Warrior.
"After this race there's a good chance we'll run him in the Blue Grass," Motion said. "He can definitely get the distance. He can get a mile and a quarter if he has to.
"He's always had a tendency to be a little step slow. It's something that we've worked on a bit. He's definitely a little immature. The pace didn't help him much today."
It was another 3 1/4 lengths back to The Ole Gen (The Daddy), who was followed under the wire by Swagger Jack (Smart Strike), Ocasta (Cherokee Run), Sorgho (Storm Cat), St. Ivan (Suave), Disfraz (Lemon Drop Kid) and Grandpa Gibby (Pleasant Tap).

You want your company to stand out. To get your brand in front of the people who will purchase your products and services, it takes creativity and forward thinking. Advertising through the same channel over and over will not get you the results it once did.
Create a Brand
Entrepreneur say businesses need to plaster the company name everywhere. From plastic signage to mobile advertising, your logo should appear in as many places as you can put it. Take advantage of online sites that offer free advertising. Use social media posts to talk to online customers where they are the most comfortable. Billboards are still a great place to begin advertising a new or revamped brand.
Know Your Target Audience
It does no good to advertise if you do not know who wants or needs your business. You may know the basics about your client base, but do you know favorite shopping sites, frequented stores, most liked attractions, and routine outings? Experts suggest using polls and surveys to find out who is interested in your services. When you find favorite podcasts and bookstores your client uses, it will help you know where to look for similar customers.
Stay on Top of the Data
Google Analytics and other tracking programs can help you collect information and organize it in readable reports. By looking at the overall statistics each day and giving the numbers an in-depth look every week, you can spot patterns and trends that let you anticipate your customers' needs. Tracking data can keep you more competitive than blindly throwing advertising dollars at the campaign.
Don't Put All Your Eggs in One Basket
Diversify your brand and show up everywhere. Use social media sites and free online advertising pages. Put your contact information in popular directories like Yelp and Google. A word to the wise here, be sure all the information is complete and consistent. Any variation can cost you top page rankings on search engines.
Advertise smartly with the data to back up your decisions to build a long-term campaign that gets your brand the recognition and attention you want. Advertising no longer means hitting up local radio and television stations and putting up a billboard. Businesses have to combine online and offline tactics. Mobile marketing is extremely vital to any company, large or small. By planning and tracking your advertising dollars, you can hone in on the customers who will be loyal and stick with your brand for the long haul.

History of the Brand
40 years of History
In the heart of the Franco-Swiss Jura Mountains, the historical birthplace of watchmaking, Pequignet is an authentic luxury brand perpetuating the great watchmaking tradition in an independent French firm, committed to quality and passionate about its craft.
In 1973 in Morteau, a region where traditional watchmaking was slowly dying out, Emile Pequignet founded the Pequignet brand and signed it with his initials "EP".
Having entered traditional watchmaking at the age of 16, Emile Pequignet was as talented as he was ambitious. From the outset, his strength lay in the boldness of his creativity and in the quality of the materials which he carefully chose.
Honoured with five Cadran d'Or awards for the beauty of its Ladies' collections, the Pequignet brand is now the preferred brand of a generation of modern, elegant women.
A great horse-lover, Emile Pequignet made the Pequignet brand into a true ambassador in the equestrian world in the 1980s and 1990s.
At the start of the millennium, Emile Pequignet took a well-earned retirement. Thirty years of passion and conviction enabled him to position the Pequignet name as the jewel in the crown in luxury watchmaking, an inspirational hallmark of Swiss-made French elegance.
Didier Leibundgut took over the brand in 2004 and set about making Pequignet an Haute Horlogerie manufacture.
In 2006, Pequignet opened its in-house Haute Horlogerie laboratory, equipped with the very latest technology, ably supported by the prodigious talents of its watch engineers.
In 2010 and 2011, the brand installed its Manufacture workshops and gave birth to an ultra-innovative mechanical movement combining reliability, precision and performance: the Calibre Royal.
The Royal fleur-de-lis became the emblem of Pequignet.
In 2012, despite great critical success, Pequignet experienced a difficult year. Two private investors then bought out the company, with the aim of preserving its independence. M Laurent Katz became the company's Chairman.
In 2017, four executives from the existing staff bought the brand Pequignet. Mr. Dani Royer became President of the company whose leitmotif is now to make the Moorea ranges closer to the DNA of the brand.
Two icons
There is no luxury watchmaking brand without its iconic model, a recognisable model which is different from all the rest, possessing a timeless beauty.
There is no iconic model without a visionary spirit to give it life.
Today, Pequignet is in the fortunate position of having 2 icons:
MOOREA Collection
The MOOREA Collection has maintained its incredible success since 1984, embodying worldwide a certain expression of the "French touch", the subtle combination of sophistication and restraint.
The inspiration behind the legendary MOOREA Collection was Emile Pequignet's passion for his race horse, Moorea, the king of the horse shows in the 1980s.
In search of a strong and distinguished identity, Emile Pequignet invented the famous MOOREA link bracelet; this was a steel grain-shaped link hinged with the bracelet, perfectly identifiable in its design.
Today, the products in the MOOREA Collection are made in France. Younger and more accessible ranges will complete the Collection
Collection Manufacture
Created in 2011, the other flagship of the Pequignet company, the Calibre Royal® is a mechanical movement produced in the manufacture and a symbol of the Renaissance of French Haute Horlogerie.
The Calibre Royal® was entirely designed, prototyped, tested and assembled in Pequignet's Haute Horlogerie laboratory in Morteau (France).
Its creation required 279 technical drawings, 318 components, of which 316 were created to plan by the Pequignet laboratory, 150 tools and component manufacturing matrices, and more than 20,000 dimensions…
In addition to its absolutely unprecedented performance, the Calibre Royal® is a grandes complications movement at a revolutionary price.

CSA Week 8: Helpful Hints and Tricks
Week 8 is here. Almost half way through the CSA season, but in a personal opinion, the best is yet to come. More variety, more items to choose from each week, and even more desire to enjoy fresh and local produce as we realize what seasons are just around the corner. August brings us the first of locally grown apples, the best sweet corn of the season, and typically more tomatoes than the average human knows what to do with. I have already had my first request for fall pricing guides and I can't wrap my head around that quite yet. Before we know it, our parking lot will transformed into a holding ground for bins of pumpkins, squash, gourds and all things fall. Let's not get ahead of ourselves though, let's enjoy what is left of the great Minnesota summer!
There is lots to do with the share this week, let's break it down:
Sweet Corn: I think a weekly staple in any house throughout the summer should be burgers and sweet corn. Back to bi-color this week, and you won't be disappointed. Please remember, if you do not eat it right away, don't husk it, keep it in a plastic bag in the refrigerator. I never recommend keeping the corn more than 2-3 days, but that's a strong personal preference. The fresher the better. If I have to recommend one thing to eat right away, it would always be the sweet corn.
Romano Beans & Shallots: The best of the best. Yes, they do have a bit of sand and dirt on them, but a good rinse in the sink will get the grit off of the beans. A bit different than your typical green beans, but even more flavor. A special offering in our CSA, so enjoy them while they are here. My favorite way to enjoy these would be sauté all the shallots in a bit of butter until crisp and remove from the pan. Add the Romano beans and sauté or steam until tender. Add the shallots back in for a few minutes and you have an outstanding side dish. I made these last night, and since the 'rents are out of town for a couple days, I ate almost the entire batch. No shame, they are amazing and I didn't make much else for dinner!
Kale: Salads, smoothies, chips, stir fries, the opportunities are endless. If you really aren't a fan of this great vegetable, I recommend slicing it up really finely and adding it to a pasta sauce. It is a great way to get in extra veggies without noticing much added flavor.
Onions: A sautéed onion and kale would make a great side dish this week. Otherwise, these will keep for quite some time. If you don't want the onion aroma taking over your fridge, toss in a bag and store in your crisper drawer, they will last for several weeks.
Slicing Tomatoes: Perfect for sandwiches, burgers, or just plain. Let the tomatoes sit on your counter for a day or two until the are soft to the touch. We don't like to send them too ripe, otherwise we get lots of complaints that they get bruised in transportation. Give the yellow, low acid tomatoes a try as well!
Medley Grape Tomatoes: A fresh tomato salad is in order this week. Simple slice and toss with a bit of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, a dash of salt and pepper, add some fresh basil and mozzarella cheese and you have the perfect summer salad.
Green Peppers: The flavor and the aroma are outstanding. Stuffed peppers, afternoon snacks, the perfect burger topping….opportunities are endless.
Cucumbers: Just a couple to enjoy throughout the week. Scroll to the bottom of the email for a special recipe including cucumbers, eggplant, medley tomatoes and kale…a dish you won't want to miss out on this week!
Potatoes: Simply the best. My favorite thing to do is to boil them all up right away. I may only eat a couple a night, but the fact they are cooked in the fridge and I can grab and go is great. Crispy smashed potatoes are probably my favorite and will likely be had for breakfast in a few hours after the shares get out this morning.
Eggplant: Oh the poor vegetable that receives the absolute most criticism. I challenge you all to give this eggplant a try. An extremely mild flavor that can be enjoy in so many ways. I am enclosing a fairly straightforward, easy recipe to use up the eggplant in one meal. Personally, I found this Japanese eggplant to be much more tender than traditional eggplant and have a great flavor and texture. Step outside your comfort zone and give it a try this week.
Chives: I'm not going to lie, I am not a good herb gardener. Perhaps it is because I never get them actually planted. I like to keep mine in the kitchen where they receive some natural light and use them for a few weeks and then toss. Chives are great to add to eggs, potatoes, meat, really anything. Even if your garden is full, you will definitely get a few uses out of the fresh ones and they will grow for a couple weeks in the small pot.
Strawberries: Honestly, I think these are the best of the season. If they make it past the ride home for you, share with your family. Slice and serve over ice cream, top your yogurt with them, or just eat plain. These are truly and treat and absolutely delicious.
There you have it, week number 8 is in the books. Lots of things you can do with the items this week, and these are just a few ideas. Challenge yourself to try a new recipe this week. While I didn't make my normal Monday night spread, I did come up with a recipe for Eggplant so you all can easily enjoy it. Personally, I thought it was delicious and look forward to making it again later in the week.
Eggplant, Tomatoes, and Crispy Kale Medley
-3 pieces of kale torn up into pieces, rubbed with olive oil
-4 Japanese eggplant, sliced into ¼ inch pieces and quartered, tossed in olive oil
-1 cup plain Greek yogurt
-2 tsp minced garlic -3 tbsp lemon juice
-1 cup sliced medley tomatoes
-1 cucumber peeled and diced into small pieces -salt and pepper
Roast eggplant at 425 degrees, tossing occasionally until a nice dark color and tender to the touch.
When the eggplant is about done, add kale to the oven and roast until crispy. Make sure to keep tossing as it will easily burn.
While the eggplant is roasting, mix the yogurt, garlic, lemon juice and a dash of salt and pepper together. Spread the yogurt mixture into a light layer over a large dinner plate.
Sprinkle the diced cucumbers over the yogurt. Followed by the roasted eggplant, medley tomatoes, and finally tuck the pieces of kale in the mixture. A light, summery side dish or main meal that is easy to make and definitely east to enjoy.

text: October 20, 2016 Cancer and Floating October 20, 2016/ David Berv We all have a friend or family member who has been touched by cancer. The diagnosis and subsequent management of cancer is a life changer. Your life perspectives change overnight and forever. Priorities shift. The treatment of cancer is a big deal. Despite the technological advances in the detection and removal of tumors, medical management leaves a trail of emotional and physical damage. Finding ways to empower oneself during times of fatigue, body aches, and various immune system compromises presents a serious challenge. Floating is a good example of an alternative medical therapy that can assist an individual in the various stages of cancer and remission. Floatation therapy, otherwise known as floating or R. E. S. T. (restricted environmental stimulus therapy), is showing incredible promise and popularity in the cancer arena. Floatation is an instant mind and muscle relaxer. It is like meditating without having ever practiced meditation, like receiving the effects of a full body massage without being touched and like getting the most restful sleep without really sleeping - all in one hour. Parts of the brain are activated that help the body with restoration, rejuvenation and inspiration. Not sleeping well? Float. Anxious? Float. Pain? Float.Imagine a sleek 9 foot by 5 foot fiberglass moulded "pod" with a hinged lid, containing 10" of skin temperature water (94 degrees) and 1000 pounds of Epsom salt, or magnesium salts. You are in a private room with a shower. You shower, insert earplugs, climb into this pod, lie on your back and float effortlessly for an hour like a cork. The water is more dense than the Dead Sea and you are completely supported. You can customize the experience by closing the lid or leaving it open, leaving the light on or turning it off from within the pod so you are in complete darkness. Also, you can choose to be in silence or listen to soothing, ambient music. Regardless of the way you choose to experience your float, it will minimize sensory stimuli ( including gravity ) which offers a chance for the mind to unplug and the body to heal. You soak up the healthy magnesium salts. You emerge feeling distinctively different. And it lasts. The more you float, the better you feel. With regard to cancer and floating, it is always recommended to include your medical doctor or oncology specialist about your choice to try floating, before you float. Your doctor may suggest that floating should be avoided immediately after times like infusions, radiation and any surgery that involves a healing incision. Floating should be a consideration for anyone in the process of managing the various stages of cancer and remission, as it presents a unique and effective way to address the body and mind. www.myfloatzone.com www.facebook.com/thefloatzone

Serves 4
Pour the milk into a non-stick pan and drop in the garlic and rosemary. Put it on the heat and bring it to a brisk simmer. Keep an eye out though, as, given the chance, the milk will boil over like invaders pouring over a castle wall. Make sure you regulate the heat accordingly. You want to reduce the milk by approximately two-thirds, down to 120ml. Ignore the unsightly milk-skin, old-spider-web look, as this will all become a beautiful creamy sauce; just push any skin down into the milk with a wooden spoon. The reducing process will take about 25-30 minutes.
Release the anchovies from their tin or jar and drop them into the food processor or blender bowl. If the anchovies are tadpole-sized, throw in a few more. Personally, I like the whole ones cured in chunky salt (wash and de-bone them first). Wash and peel the carrots and artichokes and destring the celery. Retaining the peeler, shave all the vegetables lengthways in ribbons into a large bowl of cold water clinking with ice-cubes. This will make them supercrisp. Squeeze in half the lemon juice, to stop the artichoke discolouring.
Deconstruct the Trevise lettuces. Having thrown away any damaged outer leaves, the Trevise, with its tight leaves, shouldn't need washing. Tear each leaf into about four pieces and throw them into a large mixing bowl. Do this one by one until the leaves become too small to carry on. Chuck the last ones in whole. Repeat with the other lettuce.
In a salad spinner, or by other means, dry the shaved vegetables very well. Add them to the lettuce. Finely crumble over a little chilli (some flakes would do), add a pinch of salt and squeeze over the other lemon half. Pour over 2 tablespoons good olive oil. Mix everything gently and thoroughly before dividing it evenly between the plates.
Remove the milk pan from the heat and take the rosemary stem out.
Pour the reduced milk, the rosemary leaves and softened garlic into the food processor or blender, all over the waiting anchovy fillets. Do not scrape the bottom of the milk pan, as any burnt 'catchings' will not blend properly and the sauce, that should be really smooth, will become bitty. Turn the power on high and in a thin, thin stream start pouring in the olive oil. After a while you will begin to see the sauce thicken. It is easier to tell how thick your mixture has become by stopping the blades and seeing it settle. When it has reached the consistency of a yoghurt drink or loose mayonnaise, it is done. Remove the blades and flick 2 good tablespoons about each plate of salad. Eat your 'autumn slash winter salad' immediately.
LEFTOVERS: As the dressing chills it will thicken. It is delicious on hot bread and with strong dark meats such as roast beef and venison fillet, as well as next to a good crispy hunk of fish such as grey mullet.

The Wine Advocate
The Wine Advocate - Michel Delon, a great man, is the consummate proprietor, meticulously administering this vast estate spread out along the St.-Julien/Pauillac border, separated from Latour's finest vineyard by a mere ten feet. The 1993-95 vintages from Delon are brilliant wines. Leoville-Las-Cases remains one of the irrefutable reference points for high class Bordeaux. One of the more massive Medocs of the vintage, this opaque purple-colored wine exhibits fabulous richness and volume in the mouth. Layers of pure black-cherry and cassis fruit are intermixed with stony, mineral-like scents, as well as high quality toasty oak. Medium to full-bodied, with a sweet, rich entry, this wine possesses plenty of tannin, yet fabulous extract and length. Leoville-Las-Cases is one of the half-dozen great wines of the Medoc in 1994. Anticipated maturity: 2002-2025. This lion never falls asleep on the job!
Robert M. Parker, Jr. - 28/02/1997

The Producer
Château Léoville Las Cases is one of the largest and oldest classified growths in the Médoc. It is the largest of the 3 Léoville properties and now without doubt the leading estate in St-Julien.
Léoville Las Cases's 97 hectares of vineyards are superbly sited on gravelly-clay soils with the largest plot being surrounded by a stone wall and stretching between the village of St-Julien and Château Latour. The wine is a Cabernet Sauvignon dominated blend (65%), and is matured in oak barriques (70-80% new) for 18 months.
Léoville Las Cases produces arguably the most exotically perfumed wine in the Médoc and this can be partially attributed to the must being fermented at lower than average temperatures, which leads to its youthful aromatic richness being retained. On the palate it is powerful and concentrated and marvellously well-balanced.
Léoville Las Cases is a 2ème Cru Classé in name but produces 1er Cru Classé quality wines.
Other wines by this producer:
The Grape
Cabernet Sauvignon lends itself particularly well in blends with Merlot. This is actually the archetypal Bordeaux blend, though in different proportions in the sub-regions and sometimes topped up with Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and Petit Verdot.
In the Médoc and Graves the percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend can range from 95% (Mouton-Rothschild) to as low as 40%. It is particularly suited to the dry, warm, free- draining, gravel-rich soils and is responsible for the redolent cassis characteristics as well as the depth of colour, tannic structure and pronounced acidity of Médoc wines. However 100% Cabernet Sauvignon wines can be slightly hollow-tasting in the middle palate and Merlot with its generous, fleshy fruit flavours acts as a perfect foil by filling in this cavity.
In St-Emilion and Pomerol, the blends are Merlot dominated as Cabernet Sauvignon can struggle to ripen there - when it is included, it adds structure and body to the wine. Sassicaia is the most famous Bordeaux blend in Italy and has spawned many imitations, whereby the blend is now firmly established in the New World and particularly in California and Australia.
The Region
St Julien is the smallest of the "Big Four" Médoc communes. Although, without any First Growths, St Julien is recognised to be the most consistent of the main communes, with several châteaux turning out impressive wines year after year.
St Julien itself is much more of a village than Pauillac and almost all of the notable properties lie to its south. Its most northerly château is Ch. Léoville Las Cases (whose vineyards actually adjoin those of Latour in Pauillac) but, further south, suitable vineyard land gives way to arable farming and livestock until the Margaux appellation is reached.
The soil is gravelly and finer than that of Pauillac, and without the iron content which gives Pauillac its stature. The homogeneous soils in the vineyards (which extend over a relatively small area of just over 700 hectares) give the commune a unified character.
The wines can be assessed as much by texture as flavour, and there is a sleek, wholesome character to the best. Elegance, harmony and perfect balance and weight, with hints of cassis and cedar, are what epitomise classic St Julien wines. At their very best they combine Margaux's elegance and refinement with Pauillac's power and substance.
Ch. Léoville Las Cases produces arguably the most sought-after St Julien, and in any reassessment of the 1855 Classification it would almost certainly warrant being elevated to First Growth status.

hosts the Blueberry Harvest School, a summer educational program for migrant children in Washington County for the wild blueberry harvest. Last year the program featured projects, guest presenters, and field trips that blended math, reading, and science together to promote learning in active and fun ways. 113 students had the opportunity to explore themes such as Identity, Conservation, and Maine's forests and coasts.
Students were met each day by 30 talented faculty and staff from across Maine, the United States, and Canadian Maritimes. 63% of the staff spoke Mi'kmaq or Spanish, the two most predominant home languages for BHS students apart from English. Youth over 14 years of age who were raking blueberries were provided with tutoring, English classes, a University visit, and workshops on healthy relationships and job skills. Many parents reported that their children returned home focused and ready to learn.
Southern Maine Workers' Center
helped win a year-long campaign to raise the minimum wage in Portland to $10.68, becoming the first city in New England to do so. SMWC played a leading role in passing the new ordinance, while also defeating amendments that would have excluded young workers, reduced the wage to $8.50, and eliminated indexing. SMWC built and strengthened its coalition partnerships with organizations like Portland Racial Justice Congress and the Maine Women's Lobby: both powerful organizations that share SMWC's vision for worker justice.
Maine Centers for Women, Work, and Community, has a new name and logo. Their new name better reflects their all-inclusive mission to help people all over Maine venture in new directions with their careers, businesses, and personal finances.

Maine Farmland Trust, the state's leading force in protecting farmland.
Lois Whitcomb and her late husband Colby bought Springdale Farm in Waldo in 1951. Over 60 years later, Lois decided to honor the family's farming legacy by protecting 488 acres with an easement. Today, Lois's granddaughter Carrie manages the farm, and produces milk, rose veal, pork, beef, lamb, and highbush blueberries. Up until her death in January of this year, Lois continued to be involved in the farm, raising the calves and nurturing award-winning replacement heifers, and inspiring the next generation of farmers.
WERU and MPBN
Connecting Maine Communities through the airwaves.
MaineShare welcomes its first broadcast media groups! MPBN and WERU joined as new Member Groups last year
. Radio can be a powerful way to connect communities in a rural state like Maine. Here are two stories of connections.
For the past three years MPBN Radio has posted stories from across Maine of people sharing pieces of music that have inspired them and influenced their lives. This series is very moving and has inspired listeners to share their own stories online through a specially designed webpage on MPBN.NET. A interesting aspect of the initiative is MPBN's call for musical instrument donations of instruments that still can be played. In partnership with
The Gifts of Music
, MPBN collects donations in our Portland, Bangor, and Lewiston locations and works to get the instruments to needy student performers across the state. In 2015, over 250 instruments were collected ranging from tubas to violins to harps to flutes.
During a WERU public affairs call-in program dealing with homelessness a listener called in to say that a friend had recently become homeless due to a house fire. Hearing that, another listener called in to say that she had a second house that was not currently being occupied that she would offer as temporary shelter for the woman whose house had burnt down. This instance demonstrates one way that WERU functions as a megaphone for fostering community.
We hope you feel inspired to make a gift! Please visit our

I watch Canadian and British Columbia politics with dismay. The news is dominated by scandals related to abuse of expense accounts, the only policy discussions are about balancing budgets at the expense of government services for ordinary people, and government at both levels seem determined to act in the interest of fossil fuel companies, regardless of the consequences. And there are consequences.
Human-created emissions of carbon dioxide, methane, CFCs, and other greenhouse gases are increasing the global temperature. This increase in temperature is leading to more extreme weather events around the world. Extreme weather threatens world supplies of both food and fresh water and ocean acidification threatens all fish and seafood stocks. There are a number of potential positive feedbacks in the weather system, such as the melting of arctic sea ice, methane release from tundra, and the die-off of phytoplankton due to acidification that may cause climate change to rapidly accelerate. It is imperative that humans rapidly reduce their emissions of greenhouse gases and, if possible, withdraw some of these gases from the atmosphere.
What is the role of the BC government in climate change? At present, BC is contributing to the problem, both through direct carbon emissions in BC and through the export of coal, oil, and gas to other countries. What policies should the BC government and opposition parties be advocating? Will any of our leaders have the courage and commitment to pursue these policies?
This is not simply an environmental issue. It is an issue of human rights and social justice. A child born this year will be only 37 in 2050. Consider the climate models of what the world is likely to be like in that year; it is not a pretty picture. By failing to address the climate issue, we are sentencing the children of the world (including our own children, grandchildren, nieces, and nephews) to increasing and unprecedented levels of suffering, danger, and distress. Is it fair and just for us to sacrifice the welfare of the next and later generations for our short-term economic benefit? For centuries parents have struggled so that their children's lives can be as good or better than their own. Current government policy is going to leave our children much less well-off than we are.
While this discussion has been about British Columbia, each of us can examine the policies of our own government. Are they addressing the reality of global warming or are they hoping to continue with business-as-usual?

Listed are some of the more frequently asked questions. The cellular industry is ever changing and can be enormously complex. If we have not answered a question that you may have, please contact us for more information.
What about claims that wireless phones cause headaches, fatigue and other problems?
I see a plan that works for me, but I already have a cell phone. Can I purchase only the rate plan?
How does prepaid service differ from traditional billed service?
What is an early cancellation fee?
Can I surf the Internet from my phone?
What is the difference between Analog and Digital?
Will my phone work in other parts of the world?
My battery doesn't hold a charge anymore. Why not?
CDMA2000 1X claims data transfer at 86 kbps although this is at the high end. Actual results will be slower. 1X acts as your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and immediately connects you to the information you need. With the 1X network when data is not actively being transferred, your connection will become a virtual connection, freeing resources so you can receive voice calls or text messages on your cellphone. When information is sent to you, or when you are ready to begin transferring data again, the connection will automatically carry on, as if there was no service interruption. No need to dial up again. No waiting.
1X is packet-based, which means you are billed based on the volume of data sent and received.
The General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) is a new non-voice value added service that allows information to be sent and received across a mobile telephone network. It supplements today's Circuit Switched Data and Short Message Service. GPRS is NOT related to GPS (the Global Positioning System), a similar acronym that is often used in mobile contexts.
Theoretical maximum speeds of up to 171.2 kilobits per second (kbps) are achievable with GPRS using all eight time slots at the same time. This is about three times as fast as the data transmissions speeds possible over today's fixed telecommunications networks and ten times as fast as current Circuit Switched Data services on GSM networks. By allowing information to be transmitted more quickly, immediately and efficiently across the mobile network, GPRS may well be a relatively less costly mobile data service compared to SMS and Circuit Switched Data.
One study has been completed in Sweden and Norway to determine whether users of digital phones experience greater subjective health symptoms (headaches, dizziness, fatigue, etc.) than those using analog phones. The fundamental question raised by this study was unsupported by the data. In fact, there is nothing in the study that suggests wireless users have a greater incidence of headaches than the general population.
Bluetooth in its most basic form is cable replacement. Where cables now connect many devices, a wireless Bluetooth connection will provide low-cost wireless communications and networking between PCs mobile phones and other devices. This will enable untethered, wireless connectivity, to the Internet and other devices, anytime, anywhere. Bluetooth is based on a global radio-frequency (RF) standard, which operates on the 2.4 GHz ISM band, providing license-free operation in the United States, most of Europe and Japan.
Bluetooth technology is an important element in the wireless Internet scheme because it improves seamless Internet connectivity and information delivery.
Bluetooth wireless technology will virtually eliminate the need for business travellers to purchase or carry numerous proprietary cables by enabling one-to-one and one-to-many connections among PCs, mobile phones and other devices, such as printers and display monitors.
Bluetooth wireless technology is designed to support a data rate that provides more than enough bandwidth for the designated usage models.
Bluetooth wireless technology has raw data rate of up to 1Mbps.
A device with Bluetooth wireless technology will have the capability of exchanging information within a 10-meter (~30 feet) radius, though different devices will support variant ranges based on intended usage requirements.
No wireless service is perfectly secure, but the wireless industry has made significant investments to thwart eavesdroppers and phone-number thieves. Digital cellular and PCS (Personal Communications Services) transmissions require sophisticated equipment in order to listen in on calls. CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) technology is the most secure. CDMA transmission has been used by the military for secure phone calls. Analog phone signals, on the other hand, can be monitored by anyone with a radio scanner.
Depending on the market, each carrier may offer 20 or more plan choices to prospective customers. Plans vary in the number of minutes bundled, and the geography of the local calling area. Generally speaking, the smaller the coverage area, the more minutes you'll receive for a given monthly fee. We suggest you think about how many minutes you'll use each month in your home city, in your region of the country and then in the rest of the country. If you'll use your phone regularly for more than one hour a month in parts of the country outside your local or regional calling area, you'll likely benefit from a flat-rate plan that will not charge you roaming in those regional or national locations. If you mostly use the phone around town, we suggest a plan that includes roughly as many minutes as you think you'll use.
Some carriers require you to sign a contract, some don't. Often you'll get a less expensive rate if you do sign a contract. A contract assures the service provider that you'll be a longer-term customer and thus a less expensive rate may be available.
You may be able to purchase a rate plan only, but only if the handset you have uses a technology compatible with the carrier you select. Even when this is the case, some phones are "locked" by the manufacturer so that they only work on the network of the carrier who purchased the phone for resale to its customers. With advances in quality and size of the phones, and their relatively low price, you'll probably be better off getting a new phone with your service plan.
In some instances, you may be able to purchase the phone without a service plan, but you'll be charged the full price for the phone. You should call for details regarding your particular phone-only selection.
This service allows you to buy minutes in advance of use. It is a good solution for those who want to budget their phone usage, or for customers who may have credit issues or do not feel comfortable providing information for a carrier credit check.
A System Access Fee (SAF) is monthly fee charged to help cover the costs associated with the ongoing operation, maintenance and upgrading of the wireless network. The fee is not required by nor collected for the federal government or any of its agencies.
An Early Cancellation Fee (ECF) applies if, for any reason, your service is terminated prior to the end of the service agreement. It applies to each line in the plan that is terminated.
With a Hands-Free Kit, you can use your cell phone in your car without holding the handset. An external speaker and microphone provide you with, in effect, a speakerphone in your vehicle. Hands-Free Kits are available as mounted units, generally used with mobile units, and as portable head-set styles that can be used with hand-held units. Mounted kits are connected to the vehicle's power supply; portable kits generally use a cigarette lighter adaptor. Recent legislation has banned the use of cellular phones while driving due to 'Driver Distraction'. In some areas where this law is in place, a hands-free kit is acceptable.
Wireless Internet access has been the buzz word throughout the Wireless Industry for years, unfortunately there are a few pitfalls along the way. The first problem is the size of the screen on most phones. In order to view any substantial amount of information it would be necessary to scroll constantly. The next issue is the bandwidth available from the network providers themselves. There is talk of 156kbs coming but at the moment it is not reality. WAP was promoted as the answer for wireless data but it has been plagued with problems and is not likely to survive. Survival of the Wireless Internet will be determined by the user wanting the applications that are useful, not just what is available. Screen size, bandwidth and speed will all make the content easier to access but only if it is worthwhile.
T9 Text Input (T9 for text on 9 keys) is software that enables you to easily enter text into small devices. For wireless phones T9 enables you to take advantage of wireless communication services such as SMS (short messaging service), e-mail, Internet access, contacts, calendar, notes and more.
T9 software requires just one key press per letter, and quickly recognizes the most commonly used word of a numeric sequence.
Analog cellular is the oldest technology used for cellular calls. It uses a band of frequencies around 800MHz. Analog transmits calls over continuously variable radio waves, similar to FM radio. Analog service is available in 90 to 95% of North America. Call quality is fair to good. Occasionally callers will experience "fast busy" signals if the network is too busy to handle the volume of calls, some static, or even dropped calls. Analog provides limited data services.
Digital cellular network standards are CDMA (code division multiple access), TDMA (time division multiple access), and GSM (global system for mobile communications), which use a band of frequencies around 800 & 1900 MHz. Voices are converted to digital 1's and 0's for transmission, then converted back to voices at the receiving end. Digital coverage is increasing across Canada and will eventually equal analog coverage. Call quality is improved over analog with less static. The network is able to increase the capacity with digital, therefore, fewer "fast busy" signals.
Digital PCS standards are CDMA, TDMA and GSM and use a band of frequencies around 1900 MHz. PCS phones that also have analog capabilities are dual-mode; PCS phones that transmit on both 800MHz and 1900 MHz are called dual-band. PCS phones that are dual-band, dual-mode, are also called tri-mode. A Digital tri-mode single band GSM phone would offer 900, 1800 & 1900 MHz. This would allow the phone to work in Europe.
Some of the advantages of digital include enhanced privacy, extended battery life, improved call clarity and enhanced features such as Caller ID, short text messaging and message waiting indicators, wireless Internet access and more.
Roaming is the term used when you travel outside of your home area. Each carrier has different roaming options. Please look at the price plan comparison pages to see which options the carriers in your region offer.
In most cases if you have a GSM phone it will work in Europe and Asia. The system in Europe is 900 / 1800 MHz, and this would be part of a tri-mode single band phone (the GSM system in North America is 1900 MHz). It is also possible to rent a phone to use in the country that you will be travelling to from www.roadpost.com.
The most common types of batteries for cellular phones are listed below, with their various advantages and disadvantages. Regardless of the technology, most handheld and portable units will accept a "standard" or "extended" battery, which will add to the length of time the battery will power the unit.

Opening: 23.7.2014; 6 - 9PM
Exhibition: 24.7.2014 - 21.8.2014
An exhibition with and by Luiz Albisser, Beck Books, Michèle Graf, Selina Grüter, Martin Jaeggi, Brigit Naef, Nick Oberthaler, Mathias Renner, Forever Traxx, Ian Wooldridge
Against the Sun is an exhibition in an environment. The title can be read both literally and metaphorically: The show will indeed take place within a shuttered apartment at the height of summer, while it explores the night and realms that escape the glaring sun of reason.
Reminiscent of both an opium den and a nightclub, the show invites the viewer into an artificial night, a room for reflection, sheltered from the sun's panoptic eye. A projection of Maya Deren's Divine Horsemen. The Living Gods of Haiti serves as a starting point for various avenues of thoughts that are explored in film playlists and displays of books.
"The ritualistic form treats the human being not as the source of the dramatic action, but as a somewhat depersonalized element in a dramatic whole. The intent of such depersonalization is not the deconstruction of the individual; on the contrary, it enlarges him beyond the personal dimension and frees him from the specializations and confines of personality. He becomes part of a dynamic whole which, like all such creative relationships, in turn, endow its parts with a measure of its larger meaning," Maya Deren wrote in An Anagram on Art, Form, and Film. This voluntary loss of self, so contrary to rationalism and work ethics, is explored in the kaleidoscopic selection of films, books and artworks under various aspects: Ritual, trance, the night, popular music, night clubbing, occulture, and art.
Opening: 23.7.2014; 6 - 9PM

Bills QB, Vince Young Suing Former Agent and Financial Advisor Over Millions
Wednesday, June 13th, 2012
First Terrell Owens and now Vince Young.
Newly acquired Buffalo Bills QB Vince Young has filed suit against his former agent and a former financial adviser alleging fraud, breach of contract and misappropriation of his funds.
According to The Houston Chronicle the lawsuit was filed on Monday and its been reported that this has been going on since Young was drafted by the Titians in 2006 and signed a $54 million contract.
The suit names attorney Major Adams II of Houston, financial adviser Ronnie T. Peoples and Raleigh, N.C.-based Peoples Financial Service Inc (PFS). It's said that over $5.5 million was taken from him by Peoples and his company while controlling his finances, with help from Young's agent. Peoples and PFS specifically agreed to provide Young with financial planning, credit management, investment counseling, estate planning and bill paying, among other services. In exchange for these services, Young agreed to pay Peoples and PFS and flat yearly fee of $65,000, plus reimbursement for all expenses they racked up working for him.
Young says his investigation found a "net transfer discrepancy" of $7.8 million, meaning PFS took in $7.8 million more than it transferred to his accounts. Young claims Peoples impersonated him via email to get a $700,000 loan, and forged his signature on a "Deposit Account Control Agreement."
According to the complaint: "Adams secured loans or lines of credit in an amount between $200,000 and $500,000 by impersonating Young via phone and/or e-mail and/or by forging Young's signature. These loans were obtained in order to pay off or service Adams' personal debts. … When these transactions began to come to light, Young immediately terminated his relationship with Adams.
In a conversation with the Associated Press on Tuesday, Adams denies the claim by saying, "I have never had access to Vince Young's financial money, any money he has. I've never had any access to his financial accounts. I've never been authorized on any accounts to write checks or anything like that. All I did for Vince Young was negotiate his contracts."
I honestly don't understand how this happens, because I notice if 2 cents is missing from my account. This situation is so sad and happens to so many athletes. Many people feel it's the responsibility of the various player associations, then others say it's the responsibility of the players. I just don't understand how one can say that their personal well-being is the responsibility of someone else. The only time that scenario holds true is when you're a child.

Wandering Nørrebro - Copenhagen
Over coffee at the revered Coffee Collective in Copenhagen's über-hip Nørrebro neighbourhood, a former lawyer turned green energy broker explains to me and my American-Icelandic travel buddy that only a few years prior to this 2014 visit, Nørrebro was known for shootings and drug pushers. Some of the seedy underbelly is still visible in the neighbourhood around the crux street Jægersborggade in which we are sitting in the perfect afternoon sun.
While all of Copenhagen is an absolute delight, this small several block enclave is the perfect mix of shabby chic, Danish design, hipster coffee, and great eats and drinks. In fact, I found myself here several times over my stay in Copenhagen, and would a recommend a trip to this neighbourhood to anyone.
Lunch at Grød is a must do. Their morning porridge fare is amazing, but the seasonally inspired risottos are to die for. Eat at this little hole in the wall porridge restaurant for the great food, friendly service, and simple atmosphere. Who knew porridge could be gourmet.
There is much to see on this small street. Antique vendors, chocolates and treats, ceramic pottery in Danish minimalist style, the best coffee in Copenhagen, and some of the best dining in the city. Check out all the shops at your leisure, and then take a walk straight out the bottom of Jægersborggade and into Assistens Kirkegård (Assistens Cemetery) where Hans Christian Andersen is buried amongst other notable Danes. This is probably one of the most beautiful cemeteries I have ever been in, and one should find themselves fortunate to call this a final resting ground...or just a place to sit and read a book for an hour.
A little further south and you can reach the shopping street Elmegade, another great place to spend some time admiring Danish design and fashion sensibility.
Afternoon Coffee
Coffee Collective is the defacto coffee of choice amongst caffeine addicts in the city. Enjoy an espresso drink, or experiment outside the box with unique roasts prepared via Aeropress. If you want to curl up and read a book, the Retro Cafe is next door.
Walk to Superkilen, an ecelectic outdoor playground for adults and kids alike, built from random artifacts from around the world, and all sorts of industry. Industrial signage, a boxing ring, and strange swings adorn the park that meanders through the neighbourhood and is comprised of three distinct colour areas: Red, Green, and Black.
Happy Hour
Enjoy a glass of wine with the knowledgable and friendly folk at Terroiristen back on Jægersborggade. They specialize mostly in organic and unfined / unfiltered wines. A typically green approach suitable to your Copenhagen visit.
Finish off the evening with a wide assortment of local and world craft beers at Mikkeller and Friends, but keep your wits about you enought to ride your city bike home to bed.

Please note that this section of the manual may contain out-of-date information. It has been retained to provide general information and a revised version will be available soon.
This document is a guide to designing, constructing, operating and maintaining bunds or spill containment systems to minimise the risk of pollution from liquid spills and leaks.
Relevant standards and acts
Where applicable, the construction of bunds must comply with the requirements of:
- Australian Standard AS 1940B1993: The Storage and Handling of Flammable and Combustible Liquids
- Australian Standard AS 4452B1997: The Storage and Handling of Toxic Substances
- the Dangerous Goods Act 1975.
Standards Australia has published standards for a number of classes of dangerous goods, and these also give details of spill control requirements (see Further Reading)
What is a bund?
AS 4452B1997 defines a bund as:
an impervious embankment of earth, or a wall of brick, stone, concrete or other suitable material, which may form part or all of the perimeter of a compound that provides a barrier to retain liquid.
Since the bund is the main part of a spill containment system, the whole system (or bunded area) is colloquially referred to within industry as the "bund".
The bund is designed to contain spillages and leaks from liquids used, stored or processed above-ground, and to facilitate clean-up operations.
A bund consists of:
- an impervious bund wall or embankment surrounding the facility or tanks
- an impervious floor within the bunded area
- any joints in the floor or the wall, or between the floor and the wall
- any associated facilities designed to remove liquids safely from the bunded area without polluting the environment.
As well as being used to prevent pollution of the receiving environment, bunds are also often used for fire protection, product recovery and process isolation.
Minimising the risk of spills to the environment
Using bunding is only one way to minimise the risk of liquids entering the environment. All employees working with bunds should know how to:
- do regular inspections of valves, pumps, pipes and hoses
- use preventive maintenance
- use standard operating procedures in the event of an on-site or off-site emergency
- isolate a tank or bund
- use fire-fighting equipment
- stop substances entering the environment once they have escaped.
This guide does not address other issues that you must consider when storing liquids, including fire safety, storing compatible materials and restricting access.
Do I need to use bunding?
This guide applies to facilities that use or store liquids above-ground. Whether bunding is needed, and what type should be used, will be determined by:
- the level of risk at the site
- the type of facility
- the type of drainage.
Level of risk at the site
The level of sophistication that might be required of a bund depends on the level of risk posed to the environment from each facility. This would be based on a number of site-specific factors, including:
- the type of liquid being used or stored and its potential impacts on the environment
- the amount of liquid being used or stored
- the ability of the facility or storage system to prevent spillages or leakages, and hence the risk of a spill or leak occurring
- the duration of any temporary storage
- the sensitivity of the environment.
Type of facility
Facilities that should comply with the bunding requirements in this guide include:
- chemical storage facilities
- pesticide storage facilities
- petroleum storage facilities
- electrical transformers containing oil and/or PCBs
- facilities used to transfer stored liquids (such as transport facilities)
- drum storage areas, either temporary or permanent
- processing areas
- any other facilities that store substances other than water or uncontaminated stormwater. For example, milk (because of its high biological oxygen demand and solubility) can cause more environmental damage than oil (which floats on water and is removed relatively easily), so bunding might be required.
- any other locations where spills are common, including transfer points, workshops, factories, service stations, buildings or pieces of machinery, wash bays, and other areas in which a material is transferred from its container. In these situations, common forms of bunding are short brick or concrete walls, grading the ground towards a sump, or using "speed humps". Any method that contains the material and stops it entering the stormwater or environment might be acceptable.
The requirement for bunding has to be determined on a site-by-site basis, taking into account the factors listed in this section.
Type of drainage
Bunding is also recommended if the area drains to the sewer or a wastewater treatment plant. Spillages in these areas can either pass through the waste treatment process to the environment or severely damage the waste treatment process, resulting in damage to the environment.
If the storage or associated equipment were to fail and the liquid were to flow into a stormwater drain or creek, the situation would be considered differently to one in which the liquid would not reach the receiving waters. In both cases, there should be emergency management plans that assume a loss of liquid both on-site and off-site.
Designing and constructing bunds
In this section are some general rules to follow for the design and construction of bunds for tank and drum storages. The two diagrams illustrate many of the points that you should incorporate in your design.
Before any work starts on the construction of bunds, consider whether the local authority should be consulted regarding necessary approvals.
Example of bunding for bulk liquid storage tanks (adapted from EPA Victoria)
Net capacity of the bund AS 1940-1993 5.9.2, AS 3780-1994 5.7.2, AS 4452-1997
Tank storages
The net capacity of a bunded compound in a tank storage facility must be at least 100% of the net capacity of the largest tank. Make an additional allowance for rainwater according to the amount of rainfall in your area (that is, sufficient capacity to cope with a one-in-twenty-year 24-hour storm). Make sure you take into consideration the capacity displaced by other tanks within the same bunded area and any foundations. Treat interconnected tanks as a single tank of equivalent total volume for the purposes of the bund design criteria.
Example of bunding for liquid drums and containers (adapted from EPA Victoria)
If an automatic fire sprinkler system is installed in or over any bunded tank or drum storage compound, the capacity should be increased by a volume equal to the output from the sprinkler system for a period of at least 20 minutes.
Package storages
If the material to be bunded is contained in drums (or other small containers), the bunded area must contain at least 25% of the total volume of the stored products.
In addition, provide for the containment of firewater on-site by designing and constructing adequate drainage controls, and by formulating emergency response plans. (See Best Practice Guidelines for Contaminated Water Retention and Treatment Systems, Department of Urban Affairs and Planning 1994.)
Materials used for bunding AS 1940-1993 5.9.3, AS 3780-1994 5.7.3
The bund floor and wall must be constructed of materials impervious to the contents of any tank or container within the bund. The bunded area must be capable of preventing the migration of any spillage or leakage to the surrounding environment. The bund must be built out of materials that can resist attack by any toxic substances that might be put inside it. A wall of brick, stone concrete or other suitable material could form part or all of the perimeter of a compound.
Earthen bunds
Earthen bunds are not recommended, except where there is no other viable alternative. Earth by itself, without a lining, does not satisfy the impermeability criteria. Any vegetation contained in the bund or on the banks will need to be maintained. The groundwater depth and subsidence of construction materials must be taken into consideration. A submission outlining remediation works and the disposal method for contaminated soil will be required at the development approval stage.
If vehicles will need access to the bunded area, use ramps, a change in grade, or speed humps to maintain an effective bund height.
Earthen bunds must be at least three times wider than they are high. There should be a flat section at the top at least 0.6 m wide. Earthen bunds should be higher than those built from brick or concrete, because there will be soil settling and erosion before the vegetation becomes established.
Strength of bunding floors and walls AS 1940-1993 5.9.3
The bund floors and walls must be strong enough to withhold any spillage from the storage facilities. The structural design should be approved by a structural engineer.
Bund heights and tank distance from the wall AS 1940-1993 5.9.3, AS 2865-1986
Wall-type bunds at tank storages should be from 0.5 m to 1.5 m high, depending on the required containment capacity and the distance to the tank - the closer the wall to the tank, the higher the wall has to be. The distance between the tank and bund walls must be at least 1 m. If bund walls are higher than 1 m above the compound floor, provide steps or ladders for quick escape. For bund walls close to the tank or higher than 1.5 m, apply the rules for confined spaces.
If you make the walls lower than 0.5 m you will need a large bunded surface area, which will collect more rainwater and be more exposed if there is a fire. Low walls are also more difficult for vehicle drivers to see, and so more likely to be damaged. If the walls are higher than 1.5 m it can be difficult to get out of the bund in a hurry, and high walls can make it hard to see what's in the bund. If the bund walls are to be higher than 1.0 m, install entry and exit ramps for general and emergency access as well as for reinforcement.
Storage of liquid classed as a "dangerous good"
If the liquid to be stored is classed as a dangerous good, make an allowance for the trajectory of a liquid leak, assuming a full tank with an elevated point of leakage. You might need to install a splatter shield, or have a generous distance between the tank and the bund wall - half the height of the tank would be appropriate. This is not necessary for drums if they are stored in such a way that a fence or wall stops them falling outside the bunded area.
Drainage AS 1940-1993 5.9.6, AS 3780-1994 5.7.4
A collection sump must be provided in the bund floor to make it easy to remove liquids. The floor must be graded in such a way that liquids collect in the sump. There must be no access to the stormwater system within the bund.
If bund drain valves are installed they must be leakproof and able to continue functioning in a fire. The controls must be outside the bunded area. They must be able to be opened manually, and the valve must be able to be locked in the closed position. The "open" and "closed" positions on the valve must be indicated and obvious.
Piping and pumping facilities AS 1940-1993 5.9.3, 5.9.6, AS 3780-1994 5.7.3
Piping and pumping facilities must be arranged in such a way that no leaks can escape the confines of the bund, and when the bund is full of liquid the pumps will still operate. If a pump has to be used to pump out flammable liquids or water containing flammable liquids, the pump must be flameproof.
All pipework should go over the bund walls; if pipework goes through the bund walls, the bund wall - pipework interface must remain gap-proof and crack-proof even in a fire. A sealant will be needed around all metal pipes that go through walls.
If there are hose couplings in the bund, place them in positions where leaks or spillages from the couplings are contained within the bund. If couplings are remote from the bund, you must provide a suitable means of collecting and retaining the leaks and spillages.
Disposal of waste
If there are processes operating within the bunded area, include a slop tank to facilitate the storage of wastes and spillages.
It is an offence under section 120 of the Protection of the Environment Operations Act 1997 to pollute waters. It is an offence under Part 5.6 of the POEO Act to unlawfully transport waste or to permit land to be used unlawfully as a waste facility.
Roof design
If possible, provide a roof to stop rainwater getting in. Make sure that the roof will not cause a build-up of dangerous or poisonous gases, or restrict the application of water in an emergency. Incorporate a 12° from vertical overhang to help stop rain entering the bund from the side.
Roofing a dangerous goods storage
Not all dangerous goods storages have to be roofed. There are circumstances where a roof over a burning tank of flammable liquid could not only hinder firefighting operations, but also spread the flame laterally to other structures. Risk assessment and planning processes should be done on a case-by-case basis; they should explore the options of roofing or of safely disposing of rainwater that might collect in an open bund. Roofing the facility could be an advantage for non-flammable Class 6.1 and Class 8 dangerous goods.
Tank construction
Bunded tanks and accessories, including their bases and support structures, must be designed and constructed in such a way that they are resistant to fire and corrosion and do not react with spilled product.
Temporary storage
It is sometimes acceptable to store drums temporarily on spill containment pallets. Each pallet should be capable of capturing the contents of at least one of the drums if there is a leak. If these pallets are to be used, the drums must be stored in a level area (to ensure full spill storage capacity), and they must be covered so that the pallets do not fill with rainwater.
For other temporary storages that hold less than 1000 L of liquid, it might be possible to avoid providing bunding if you follow good operational procedures. These procedures are:
- making sure it is possible to recover spilled material
- storing containers or drums under cover and on an impervious area, away from stormwater drains and pits
- keeping an absorbent on hand at all times.
Storage for more than 24 hours is not considered temporary.
Temporary bunding
Temporary bunding arrangements should ensure that there is only localised contamination in the event of a spill. As a condition of approval there must be a management plan for the remediation of the site and disposal of the waste. An example of temporary bunding is that needed for storage of fuel during forestry or mining operations.
Bunding involving the use of a graded floor or "speed bumps", so that the flow of any liquid leak is controlled and directed to a sump, might be acceptable. This technique is often used in locations where vehicle access is required.
Operating and maintaining bunds
Maintenance items requiring checking
The person responsible for operation and maintenance should check that:
- the drain valve remains in the fully closed position at all times when not in use and can be opened only by himself/herself
- the "open" or "closed" positions on the drain valve are clearly visible and locked when not in use
- the bund is under close supervision
- any authorised officer can gain access to inspect the drain valve
- the drain valve is routinely maintained to ensure it operates as designed
- the bund wall is routinely maintained to ensure it is always impervious to liquids
- pipework, valves and other equipment in the bund are routinely maintained
- spillages of solid or liquid material within the bunded areas are cleaned up immediately
- after rainfall, all bunds are emptied as soon as possible to maintain full capacity. Never allow rainwater to build up to a level where leaking dangerous goods can float over the top of the bund.
Testing and disposing of bund water
When the bund needs to be emptied, wherever practicable it should be pumped out, not emptied through a drain valve.
Contaminated water
If you cannot determine whether the bund water is contaminated just by looking at it, the water must be tested before it is removed from the bund.
If a visual inspection indicates that the bund water is polluted, the concentration of the pollutants must be determined. The contaminated waters must be disposed of in a way that does not pollute the environment, such as to a liquid waste treatment facility.
Contaminated water and wastes contained within the bund must be disposed of in a way that does not pollute waters, in accordance with the POEO Act 1997. Liquid waste must be disposed of at a liquid waste disposal facility or company, or treated to an acceptable level for discharge to the sewer with the permission of the responsible authority.
Uncontaminated water
Uncontaminated water contained within the bund can be used beneficially on-site for site enhancement, or directed to a grassed area to be absorbed into the ground, if this is practicable and possible.
Disposing of contaminated soil
If the soil has become contaminated, a decision will have to be made about how to deal with it. If the soil is to remain in situ, the degree of contamination, the proposed land use and the potential impact on groundwater will need to be assessed.
If a decision is made to remediate the soil, the hierarchy of solutions is:
- recover the contaminants
- treat on-site by whatever available means
- treat off-site
- dispose of on-site or off-site.
If the soil is put in a containment facility on-site, approvals are required from the local council or the Environment Protection Authority. Record information about the location of the containment with the Local Council. If the soil is disposed of off-site, it must go to an appropriate licensed waste facility.

For the first time in over 30 years, John le Carré returns to the Cold War in this thrilling masterpiece
Peter Guillam, staunch colleague and disciple of George Smiley of the British Secret Service, otherwise known as the Circus, has retired to his family farmstead on the south coast of Brittany when a letter from his old Service summons him to London.
The reason? His Cold War past has come back to claim him. Intelligence operations that were once the toast of secret London are to be scrutinised by a generation with no memory of the Cold War.
Somebody must be made to pay for innocent blood once spilt in the name of the greater good.
Interweaving past with present so that each may tell its own story, John le Carré has given us a novel of superb and enduring quality.
John le Carré
John le Carré is the nom de plume of David John Moore Cornwell, who was born in 1931 in Poole, Dorset, and was educated at Sherborne School, at the University of Berne (where he studied German literature for a year) and at Lincoln College, Oxford, where he graduated with a first-class honours degree in modern languages.
He taught at Eton from 1956 to 1958 and was a member of the British Foreign Service from 1959 to 1964, serving first as Second Secretary in the British Embassy in Bonn and subsequently as Political Consul in Hamburg. He started writing novels in 1961, and since then has published twenty-one titles.
