Phillip Coffey - Nuclear Waste NUCLEAR WASTE - By Phillip Coffey No children in the neighbor's yard to impede squirrels from hunting Quickly upon a homemade swing hanging from a silver Maple tree Did a grey squirrel jump - soon back to the leaf litter on the ground floor. No Autumn seasonal supply of nuts stored for him - no luscious treat. Cheerful voices of children across the valley, laughing-echoing their play. Many youngsters in foreign bunkers, huddled for safety from powerful greed and hate Soon innocence of youth tragically, forever lost, gone - there to ever stay. Give us the wisdom, stop the expanding war - before we are nuclear waste. Strong words but I have the faith, believing that it won't happen. I remember the Cuban Missile crisis well. I live across from Green County Primary School. Try to make contrast in our countries children and others. The poem is an account of what I observed and heard when I walked out my front door. - Phil 2022-03-05 13:49:12 | Comments | Printable version
City of Campbellsville issues Burn Ban for Saturday By Chris Taylor, Chief Campbellsville Fire-Rescue The City Of Campbellsville has implemented a Temporary Burn Ban today, Saturday, March 5, 2022, from 9amET until 5pmET due to elevated burning danger. The combination of gusty south to southwest winds, low relative humidities, record to near record temperatures, and small fuels drying out from a stretch of dry weather will lead to elevated burning dangers later today. Given sustained winds of 15 to 20 mph and gusts of 30 to 35 mph, fires could become uncontrolled. Use caution if planning to burn today and perhaps consider another day if possible. 2022-03-05 09:29:02 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Police and Fire Reports

Transportation crews to soon begin treating for noxious weeds By Naitore Djigbenou Frankfort, KY - Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) crews will begin treating for noxious and nuisance weeds throughout the state in April to help control their presence along state highways to improve driver safety and maintenance operations. Property owners who are actively treating noxious weeds on private property may request highway crews to treat select nuisance weeds found on adjacent state-owned right of way. The Cabinet targets 11 noxious weeds: Johnson grass, giant foxtail, Canada thistle, nodding thistle, common teasel, multiflora rose, Amur honeysuckle, poison hemlock, marestail, Japanese knotweed and kudzu. "Weeds are more than a nuisance - they pose safety concerns," said KYTC Secretary Jim Gray. "Actively treating the weeds on state-maintained property enhances driver visibility near roadways, prevents damage to ditches and drains and minimizes the presence of plants that attract deer near highways."
