The former Kil-Tone Company site has been added to the list
of the countrys most hazardous waste sites by the EPA. The
designation clears the way for funding to clean up remaining
arsenic and lead from pesticide manufacturing nearly 100
years ago.

he U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has


added the former Kil-Tone Company site in
Vineland to its Superfund list of the countrys
most hazardous waste sites. Pesticides were
manufactured at the now defunct Kil-Tone Company facility, and groundwater and soil at the site, including soil in
the yards of nearby homes, is contaminated with arsenic
and lead.
The EPA is committed to protecting residents from
the high levels of arsenic and lead at this site, said Judith
A. Enck, EPA regional administrator. The EPA has contacted community members and residents throughout the
process to address the pollution. Now we can do the additional sampling needed to determine the best way to clean
it up.
Arsenic is known to cause cancer, as well as many other
serious health problems. Lead is a toxic metal that can
cause damage to a childs ability to learn as well as a range
of adverse health effects in adults. Even at low levels, lead
can cause learning disabilities and behavioral problems in
children.
The Kil-Tone Company manufactured pesticides,
which included arsenic and lead, from approximately 1917
to 1926 on the property at 527 East Chestnut Avenue in
Vineland.
In 1926, the Kil-Tone Company sold the property to
Lucas Kil-Tone Co., a New Jersey company, which is
believed to have continued manufacturing pesticides at
the property until at least 1933. The property is currently
occupied by an unrelated and active business.
The New Jersey Department of Environmental
Protection investigated the site in August 2014 and took

soil and groundwater samples. The states


discovery of high concentrations of arsenic
and lead in the soil at the property and
several neighboring residential properties
prompted the referral of the site to the
EPA for additional investigation in
November 2014.
The EPA confirmed that soil at both the
former Kil-Tone property and in the yards
of nearby homes had unacceptable levels
of arsenic and lead. In April 2015, the EPA
collected surface water and sediment samples along the Tarkiln Branch to the confluence with the Maurice River. Sampling
results show elevated levels of arsenic and
lead related to the Former Kil-Tone
Company Site.
In June 2015, the EPA sampled soil at
48 additional residential properties located
near the site. An additional 31 residential
homes located within the flood plain of the
Tarkiln Branch were sampled in November
2015. The results show elevated levels of
arsenic and lead at residential properties
located within the floodplain of the
Tarkiln.
The EPA shared the sampling results
with the affected residents and businesses
and held a public meeting in July 2015.
The EPA advised residents in April 2015
on immediate actions they should take to
reduce potential exposure to the contaminated soil in their backyards.
This month EPA began work to reduce,
in the short term, the potential exposure
from the elevated levels of arsenic and lead
at the residential properties by placing sod,
stone, mulch or another barrier at the
impacted areas. A final cleanup will be
determined and carried out in the future.
The Superfund final designation makes
sites eligible for funds to conduct longterm cleanups. The EPA received a letter
from the New Jersey Department of
Environmental Protection supporting the
inclusion of this site to the Superfund list.
The Superfund program operates on
the principle that polluters should pay for
the cleanups rather than passing the costs
on to taxpayers. The EPA searches for parties legally responsible for contaminating a
site and holds those parties accountable
for cleanup costs.

Electronic video magnification is among


one of the different aids demonstrated to
patients at Eye Associates, thanks to the
recent addition of Dr. Arthur Siegel to
their medical team. Dr. Siegel, who works
out of the Eye Associates Hammonton
office, specializes in Low Vision.
Low Vision is a bilateral impairment to
vision that significantly impairs the functioning of the patient and cannot be adequately corrected with medical, surgical,
therapy, conventional eyewear or contact
lenses. It is often a loss of sharpness or acuity but may present as a loss of field of
vision, light sensitivity, distorted vision or
loss of contrast. Low vision often may occur
as a result of birth defects, injury, the aging
process or as a complication of disease.
Low Vision services do not cure the
cause of the vision problem but rather utilize the remaining vision to its fullest
potential. Low vision care does not replace
the need for other concurrent treatments
such as laser, medication and surgery. Low
vision doctors prescribe filters, microscopic
- telescopic eyewear, magnifiers, adaptive
equipment, closed circuit television systems, independent living aids, training and
counsel patients.
Dr. Siegel has dedicated his practice to

Month-Long Campaign to
Spay and Neuter FreeRoaming Cats
During the month of April, Animal
Welfare Association (AWA) will offer nocost spay and neuter surgeries, plus free
rabies vaccinations as part of Community
Cats, PetSmart Charities (petsmartcharities.org) spay/neuter campaign
to alter free-roaming cats. If left unaltered, unowned feral and stray cats produce large quantities of unwanted kittens
each spring, flooding local animal shelters
and leading to higher euthanasia rates. By
taking a proactive approach and getting
the cats fixed now, AWA will help lessen
the impact of the coming kitten season.
Spaying and neutering is one of the
most effective ways to reduce the homeless pet population and is safe for kittens
as young as eight to 10 weeks old, according to the American Veterinary Medical
Association. Spaying a female cat before
the first heat cycle can be beneficial,
improving the health of the cat by reducing the risk of certain reproductive cancers and infections.
Female cats can have as many as three
litters a year, and kittens can breed as
young as four months old, says Maya
Richmond, executive director of AWA.
Most people dont want to see the cats
theyre feeding get pregnant over and over
again, so our Community Cats campaign
will serve as a gentle reminder to caretakers of free-roaming cat colonies to catch
and sterilize their cats.
This special free rate is available to all
residents of southern New Jersey.
Residents feeding free-roaming cats who
wish to take advantage of this offer must
mention the Community Cat campaign
when scheduling their appointment.
Appointments are based on availability.
For more information or to schedule an
appointment, interested persons should
visit awanj.org or call 856-424-2288.
PetSmart Charities Community Cats
campaign will provide $648,293 to
spay/neuter clinics across the United
States to fund affordable, high-quality
spay and neuter surgeries for more than
13,820 free-roaming cats during the
month of April.

Paws and Feet 5K run/walk


and Smile Mile Fun Walk
The Animal Welfare Associations
(AWA), Annual Paws and Feet 5K
Run/Walk and Doggie Fun Day is scheduled for Saturday, June 11, at Eastern
Regional High School in Voorhees, NJ.
AWA counts on funds raised from the
event, to provide shelter and medical care
to over 2,600 homeless dogs and cats AWA
adopts out each year. Last year, animal
lovers and members of the community
helped raise over $100,000 for homeless
pets in need.
This years event begins with A Very
Groovy 5K Run/Walk at 9 a.m., followed by
a Smile Mile Fun Walk. Runners and
walkers will go far out to help AWA meet
our fundraising goal this year, says Maria
Clarke, AWAs director of Events, Business
and Community Relations. Most participants form teams and collect pledges from
friends and family while others hold garage
sales and organize dress down days at
work. Signing up is easy and fun. All are
invited to participate this year and help
raise the funds necessary to help more people and pets in 2016. So grab your friends,
family and co-workers and register as an
individual or start a team. Go to
awanj.org/pf2016.

Animal Emergency Responders


to be Trained
The New Jersey Department of
Agriculture Animal Emergency Working
Group (AEWG) will hold its 18th Annual
Symposium at 9:15 a.m. on Monday, April
25 at the Burlington County Emergency
Service Training Center in Westampton to
prepare animal emergency responders for
the challenges they might face in a disaster.
During the daylong seminar, attendees
will get hands-on experience in small animal restraint and handling exotics in a
county animal response team (CART) shelter. They will participate in a panel discussion about managing distraught or emotional animal owners and hear a speaker
on how to handle vaccination status, rabies
suspects and bite wounds in a CART shelter.
The New Jersey Department of

Agriculture, under the auspices of AEWG,


develops and coordinates plans to protect
animals during emergency situations. It
oversees state and county animal response
teams that work in the field during disasters and emergencies. The AEWG operates
under the New Jersey Department of
Agricultures Division of Animal Health
and the New Jersey State Police, Office of
Emergency Management.
Animal control officers, police and firefighters, county emergency planners, animal response volunteers, veterinary-related
personnel and others with an interest in
assisting animals during emergency situations will be in attendance at the symposium.

form, go to bit.ly/1PQxEVN.

Party Like An Animal


Canines and children of all ages from the
community are encouraged to share their
birthday with the homeless pets awaiting
adoption at the CCSPCA. While enjoying an
afternoon filled with games, food and
friends, they'll also learn the importance of
the SPCA in our community. Throughout

the afternoon, those in attendance at the


party will learn about being a responsible
pet owner, being safe around animals, pet
overpopulation, and about how they can
play a large part in changing the future for
homeless animals, bringing awareness to
the plight of abused, neglected, and homeless animals in our community.
Parties can be customized to meet the
needs and ages of the party-goers. You may
bring whatever decorations you like. Meet
and greets with a few of the animals looking
for a new home will bring smiles to faces of
everyone. Games for all ages are available
and can be ready and waiting for your group
when you arrive. When the party's done,
you simply leave the building with the good
memories, gifts and photo souvenirs commemorating your party. Leave the clean up
of the party to the staff at the shelterwhat
could be easier than that?

turned on a wye track that was located at


the present day McDonalds on North
High Street. This track extended to the
Millville Manufacturing plant on
Columbia Avenue just north of Sharp
Street. Another extension of this branch
line ran down the middle of Dock Street
to the Whitall Tatum Glass plant at Buck
Street and Columbia Avenue.
The Millville and Glassboro Railroad
provided half of the rail system that would
eventually take travelers to Philadelphia.
The other half was provided by the West
Jersey Railroad, which had been organized six years earlier when, on May 3,
1853, a board, consisting of 13 directors
was formed. Six days later, its first meeting was held. Because of the demise of the
Camden and Woodbury Railroad, which
had been established in 1837, it was imperative that the new rail line address the
need for a system reaching further south
in the state.
The year before the company was
organized, preliminary surveys had been
conducted to determine the new route,
which consisted of a run from Camden to
Woodbury, Glassboro, and Millville at a
projected cost of $700,000 to $800,000. A
third route through Salem was the most
expensive at just over $1,000,000. The
projected cost for trains, depots, stations,
and other necessities was in the area of
$120,000.
Work on the West Jersey Railroad
began in July 1855 and tracks from
Camden to Woodbury were completed by
August the following year. However, it
wasnt until April 15, 1857, that passenger
trains began running. The next step of laying track from Woodbury to Glassboro
would not be completed before the
Millville and Glassboro system was in
operation.
Passengers traveling on the Millville
and Glassboro Railroad in the early days
of the line could still reach Philadelphia,
but it was an involved process. Because
there were no tracks yet connecting
Woodbury and Glassboro, travelers had to
ride to Woodbury on a stage and then
catch the West Jersey Railroad to Camden
where they could then take a boat across
the Delaware River to Philadelphia. I

decided on this area for
the development of his
new settlement, he had
taken into consideration a number of factors, including soil conditions, climate,
and location. But one of his most important concerns was the availability of a railroad if his new town was to require transportation of manufactured and agricultural goods to places like Philadelphia and
New York. And in this case, timing was
just right.
Industry was always one of the best
incentives for the development of transportation and, thanks to the glassworks
that earned Millville considerable attention, Richard Wood was granted a charter
in 1859 to construct a rail line that would
connect his town with Glassboro.
According to Don Wentzels South
Jersey Magazine series on railroads, the
Millville and Glassboro Railroad was incorporated on March 9, 1859, and organized on
June 13 of that year. Thomas Whitney was
elected president of the company.
In fall 1859, construction of the 22-mile
rail system began. It would be completed
the following year and began operating by
October 1860, less than a year before the
establishment of Vineland. The first
engine used on the line was called The
Eagle, which had been shipped up the
Maurice River by boat and then transported by men and mules up a hill and then up
High Street to the train station, earning
the amazement of the residents.
The rails for the line and the construction material were transported by boat and
the crossties came from Woods sawmill at
Forest Grove, which would be the only
stop along the line associated with the
Vineland area prior to its founding.
According to Wentzel, Millvilles original railroad yards occupied all of the land
along Second Street between Broad and
G streets, extending west to the passenger station at High and Broad. The station
tracks were adjacent to High Street, as far
as Powell Street, turning here slightly to
the east. The freight station was opposite
the passenger station with access from
Broad Street. When originally built by the
[Millville and Glassboro Railroad], the
Millville yard contained an engine house
and a turntableEngines were then

Clean-Up and Planting Days. The cleanup will be this Saturday, April 16 and the
planting will take place the following
Saturday, April 23. Both will take place
from 9 a.m. to noon, rain or shine, and
volunteers will meet at the mini-parks,
Landis Avenue and the Boulevard.
From there, some of those helping will
spread out to other downtown focal
points. Volunteers from the Vineland
Police Athletic Leagues (PAL) Girls In
Action will be helping that day with the
clean-up initiative, while members of
Vineland High Schools Interact Club will
be helping to plant. We can also use your
help, though. Its fun, great exercise, and
youll know that youre part of a true
community effort to make our downtown
look its best.
Contact us, if you want to help. Well
be glad to have you along. Pizza will be
available afterward for those who help.

aking connections is so
very important in establishing meaningful partnerships to help and maintain
our downtown. This week, we made connections in two very big ways:
Our second broker and agents tour,
which took place Wednesday of last
week, was an opportunity to make connections with Realtors and help them, in
turn, to make connections with owners of
available properties. We had about a
dozen Realtors coming from a multicounty area to look at about two dozen
available properties along Landis Avenue.
Word of this tour attracted a lot of attention and among our guests for the tour
was the economic development director
of Woodbury, who has heard the buzz
about the great things happening here.
Unlike last Junes tour, the weather
was much more cooperative but, like last
years tour, the properties created a lot of
interest and we won praise for how well
organized the tour was. For that, I want
to thank my assistant Robin Barbetti and
Main Street Vineland Business
Development Director Robert Scarpa,
who did a fantastic job in putting the
whole thing together. I want to give a big
shout-out to Foundation Title, LLC, and
Frank Conroy of Farmers Insurance who
sponsored the event. Were moving forward with filling our downtown properties with sustainable businesses for people to patronize.
The next night, area business representatives had the opportunity to connect
with each other and with us on Main
Street at our most recent Downtown
Merchants Meet-and-Greet. Century
Savings Bank hosted this time and really
rolled out the red carpet with fantastic
hors doeuvres and hospitality.
The bank lobby was full, with animated conversation coming from all quarters.
It was a great opportunity to network, for
business representatives to spread the
word about their businesses and for us to
spread the word about all that were
doing. Thanks go to all who helped to put
this together.
Over the next two Saturdays, well
have an opportunity to maintain our connection with some of our area youth
groups as they help us with our Spring

THE GRAPEVINES SPRING 2016 HOME IMPROVEMENT GUIDE


Home Improvement,
the Earth-Friendly Way
{ BY MICKEY BRANDT }
LED bulbs with 30,000-hour life;
smokeless outdoor fire pits; permeable
paving stones; toilets with both big flush
and little flush settings; woodstoves,
clothesline equipment. The reporters
exploration of Vineland looking for earthfriendly improvements for the home and
yard found a rangefrom the truly wonderful, through the fairly obvious, to the
slightly whacky.
Many of the environmentally sound
new products cost more initially than
their conventional counterparts, but
mostly paid back the investment in surprisingly short time frames. Many products now have government-mandated
environmental standards and a few go
beyond the requirements. This is
applauded by some people, not appreciated as much by others.

LED TECHNOLOGY
The bulbs were impressive. They use
light emitting diodes (hence, LED) instead
of Thomas Edisons glowing incandescent
filaments. Hanging side-by-side at Ace
Plumbing, Heating, and Electrical
Supplies, Inc. were a standard chandelier
and one retrofitted for LED. If you owned
the standard youd change the bulbs after

M a t t re s s

they were lit for a couple thousand hours.


If that sounds reasonable, consider if you
owned the LED one, youd make the
climb, likely on a dusty ladder, only after
30,000 hours.
Everything is LED, its the newest for
lighting, said Christie Mesiano, a showroom salesperson. Initially its more

While many people are tending to their yards in preparation for the
spring, others are turning their attention to cleaning the roadways of
Cumberland County. The Cumberland County Improvement Authority
(CCIA) Office of Recycling, Clean Communities and Enforcement has
received a record number of calls in the past weeks from participants interested in the countys Adopt-a-Road program.
For those who are interested or who have been part of the program in
the past, there are several changes that have taken place over the past year.
The Adopt-a-Road program is now totally implemented online through the
CCIA website, www.ccia-net.com. All county roads are up for adoption. As a
result of the extensive changes, the CCIA determined that the best way to
get the program back on track was to totally revamp the process and give
everyone a chance to adopt a road. These modifications include removing
signs from the roadways for anyone that has not contacted the CCIA during
the past year.
Without documentation or contact with the groups or individuals who
have adopted a road in the past, we had no way of knowing if the interest
was still there in keeping the road clean, noted Anthony Riviera, director of
Recycling and Enforcement.
The online process is simple and only takes a few minutes to complete.
Select the road to adopt and the system automatically calculates a onemile stretch. One-mile, both sides of the road, is the minimum that can be
adopted. Fill in the registration information, with particular attention to the
safety and requirement screens. When registration is completed, the participant can request pre-cleanup supplies online as well as trash pickup once
the cleanup is done.
Participants are required to do at least four cleanups a year, Riviera
said. Having it online provides the means to monitor activity to ensure that
the terms of the agreement are met. Regular reminders will be sent via email to participants. If there is no activity for a year, the road will go back
up for adoption and the signs will be removed.
The Adopt-a-Road program is available to individuals and non-profit
groups at no charge. New for this online program is business sponsorship
for an annual fee. This includes a larger sponsorship sign for the business
on the adopted road designating their partnership and commitment to the
county as well as to those who live and work here. The four cleanups per
year requirement is part of the business sponsorship and activity will be
monitored as for individuals and groups.
For more information or to register for the Adopt-a-Road program, contact Riviera at 856-825-3700, ext. 2010 or by e-mail at
triviera@ccia-net.com.
In addition to its environmental related initiatives, the CCIA is responsible for the development, financing and project management of projects and
programs most vital to sustaining the economic and environmental future of
the County and the state of New Jersey. The Authority works in tandem
with the Cumberland County Board of Chosen Freeholders to foster greater
economic growth, business development and quality of life for all
Cumberland County residents.

Blossoming trees and flowers breaking through the chilly spring soil
remind us that summer and air conditioning weather is right around the
corner. There are a few things that should be done to tune up your home
HVAC (Heating, Ventilating, Air Conditioning) system to make it both
healthier and more efficient.
Change Air Filters: Air filters protect you from pollens, dust, and other
airborne particles. Pleated style filters
are best because they filter out smaller particles; however, they should be
changed on a regular basis due to
their efficient filtering capability.
Clean Humidifiers: Since additional
humidification is not required during
air conditioning season, humidifiers
should be turned off, taken apart and
cleaned for the summer season.
Add a Dehumidifier: Dehumidifiers
act to remove moisture from the interior air. Excess moisture in a home
may breed mold and other toxins causing allergy issues. Drier air also circulates better with an HVAC system. You can choose from portable or whole
house models.
Clean Your A/C System: Outside A/C condensing units need airflow to
 


operate efficiently. Any leaves, grass or debris that accumulated around or
 proper

inside the condensing unit should be removed to ensure
airflow. You
may also want to clean the coil with a cleaning agent specifically made for

air conditioning coils.
These are just a few steps that homeowners can do to improve the operation of their HVAC system. However, homeowners may wish to also consult
their local HVAC contractor for a complete system tune-up.

"Plant a Window Box for Pollinators"


This year, at the annual White House Easter Egg Roll, the United States Department of Agriculture
(USDA) urged Americans of all ages to "Plant a Window Box for Pollinators" by using a new, free online
tool available at the redesigned People's Garden Initiative website: https://peoplesgarden.usda.gov
The new tool allows people to determine which plants will provide pollinator forage based on their zip
code. Site visitors can then print out the list of plants to take to their local garden store and grow them in
a window box. There is also a virtual window box game. Even a space as small as a window box can help
pollinators by ensuring they don't have to fly too far to find food. The interactive People's Garden website
also includes the popular live USDA "bee cam" which broadcasts honeybee activity on the roof of USDA's
headquarters building in Washington, D.C.
The new People's Garden website is just in time as Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack designated April
as National Garden Month.
"Gardens provide a positive setting for pollinators such as bats, bees, birds, butterflies, beetles, and
other animals that contribute substantially to the U.S. economy and play a vital role in keeping fruits, nuts,
and vegetables in our diets," Vilsack said in the proclamation.
In addition to the window box tool, the website features an interactive map of the more than 2,100 People's Gardens planted since
Vilsack launched the effort in 2009. The new website shares People's
Garden success stories and numerous resources, from videos to
checklists, on how-to create a garden that benefits the community and
incorporates sustainable practices.
"The website's 'Plant a Window Box for Pollinators' tool is a fun way
for gardeners to select native plants for their gardens and, at the same
time, help bees, butterflies and other pollinators flourish," said
Agricultural Marketing Service Administrator Elanor Starmer.
The People's Garden Initiative works with agencies and offices
across USDA and with federal, state and local partners to start and
sustain gardens with the mission of growing healthy food, people and
communities. USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service, Transportation
and Marketing Program oversees the Initiative for the Department.

essentially free alternative to power-sucking electric dryers went out with Dwight
Eisenhower but I was wrong: The practice

HEATING THE HOUSE FOR FREE


We talked briefly to Marvin Jennings, a
LaTorre Hardware employee who has
heated his one-story home on Oak Road in
Vineland exclusively with a woodstove for
40 years. Why? Im heating my house for
free, he replied, as if to say, duh, why are
you asking me that?
It heats the whole house, he continued, I put in fans and duct work to move
the heat around. And I get my firewood
for free.
Where? Several places, he said and

warm weather. Opening a pool is
now easier than ever. Here are a
few simple tips:
Clean up plant debris from the
pool deck, patio, nearby planting
bedsvirtually anything that has
the potential for producing debris
in your pool.
Check your pool supplies.
During the fall and winter

Powerwashing is an unregulated
industry and that is why I stress to
people not to hire people who post
signs on telephone poles, says
Turchi. He recommends powerwashing
your home on an annual basis,
because keeping the mold and mildew
off your home ensures that you, your
family and pets will not be exposed to
potentially deadly mold allergens.

AN ACE IN EFFICIENCY EQUATION

one of each, its an almost unimaginable
conservation of water.

Most aluminum siding can be safely

We always do a test to see if you can

If any homeowner has questions


about pressure washing or roof cleaning, Turchi encourages them to call

Turk's also cleans roofing shingles,


and again, he cautions homeowners to
reconsider if thinking this is a do-ityourself job. The black streaks you
see on many roofs is an airborne
mold spore, which attaches itself to
the roof of your home. If left untreated, it will prematurely end the life of
your roof. We do NOT pressure wash
your roof. We will treat this issue with
a specially formulated detergent that
will eradicate this problem.

Vinyl siding can be safely washed if


done properly. Turchi cautions homeowners who might consider doing it
themselves. They might think cranking
up a rented pressure washer to 3,000
psi on is the way to go. Turchi says
this can be disastrous. Damage can
result if water gets behind the siding
and creates more of an unseen problem behind the siding.

2016 Plastic Pesticide


Container Recycling
Program Schedule
New Jersey Secretary of Agriculture
Douglas H. Fisher has urged farmers
and other pesticide applicators to participate in the 2016 plastic pesticide
container recycling program. There are
five sites around the state that accept
the triple-washed containers from now
through November. There is no cost for
the program.
New Jersey has had a plastic pesticide container recycling program for
the last 20 years, with the Department
of Agriculture leading the initiative
since 2002. The program is open to all
New Jersey Department of
Environmental Protection-(DEP)licensed pesticide applicators. The DEP
issues participants one-core credit
toward their NJDEP pesticide license.

{ H-10 } the grapevine | APRIL 13, 2016

Participation in the plastic pesticide


container recycling program keeps
these plastics out of landfills and saves
farmers and other applicators money,
said Secretary Fisher.
In 2015, more than 39,000 pounds
were collected through this program.
Sites this year include Cumberland
County Solid Waste Complex, Helena

To install a rain barrel, downspouts from a


home's storm gutter system are shortened
and adapted so that the water runs into a
barrel. The collected water can be used in
the garden, reducing the water bill.

lawns and trees. Rain is naturally soft


water that is devoid of minerals, chlorine,
fluoride and other contaminants. For this
reason, gardens respond well to it.
Rain barrels help the environment
because they reduce water run-off, plus
their will save most homeowners about
1,300 gallons of water during the peak
summer months. One of the best reasons
to start collecting rainwater with rain
barrels is that if you teach and encourage
others to do the same, you will help to
spread the culture of using rainwater this
way.
(There will be a free rain barrel workshop at WheatonArts Eco Fair on May 7.
See page H-20 for details.)
Environmentally sound use of
shade trees
Trees properly selected and placed can
add more in livability and value to the
home than any other single landscape feature. They grow continually, are everchanging and youll never tire of looking
at them.
Trees are most frequently planted for
shade. The most important shade tree on
home grounds is usually located near the
southwest corner of the house. If placed
properly, it will shade the house during
the latter part of the afternoon in summer.
Trees provide better shade than artificial
structures. Air passing through the
branches is cooled by transpiration from
the leaves.
If the house faces south, or southeast,
maximum shade on the front will come
from a tree that is placed to the southwest,
or left front. If the house faces southwest,
a tree for maximum shade would have to
be placed centrally and south of the
house. Make a diagram of your house and
sketch trees with their shade patterns to
determine the best locations. Do not plant

solar panel has a photovoltaic cell inside,


which converts sunlight to an electrical
current and is completely renewable.
A solar panel's effectiveness depends
on the size and quality of the solar cell
and the transparency of the protective
cover.
The solar cells are wired directly to a
re-chargeable battery that stores the electricity generated by the cell. Using NiMH
batteries has a significant environmental
benefit since they can be safely disposed
of.
Light-emitting diodes (LED) are like
miniature lightbulbs that are installed inline on an electrical circuit. Since theres
no need for a filament, these bulbs last a
very long time and do not generate waste
heat.
Circuitry is the most crucial component of a solar light, and the one that most

often separates the good solar lights from


the bad since it determines how efficiently
the stored electricity is converted into
light. This quality and integration of the
components determine how many hours
the light will shine: Run times can be as
short as an hour or as long as a few days.
Placement of a solar light is all-important. For maximum solar gain, the solar
cell should face due south and be positioned on an angle so it is perpendicular
to the sun. The surface of the solar cell
should not be shaded by foliage or structures at any time during the day or placed
near any other bright light source, such as
a street lamp. I

How to Buy an EnergyEfficient Appliance


In todays economic environment,
there is very little price differentiation
between retailers selling major appliances and televisions. The manufacturers have leveled the playing field
between independent retailers and
chain stores carrying major appliances. Therefore, when shopping for a
new refrigerator, washer, dishwasher,
etc. it is best to look for a store that
has the best selection, offers the most
services at no charge, and most
importantly, specializes in the sale of
appliances.
Many chain stores consider
appliances as just another product
category and do not devote the floor
space and provide the proper sales
education that can be found at a
retailer who deals specifically in
major household appliances. After all,
do you want the guy in fertilizer to
make recommendations on which
appliance best suits your needs? That
being said, lets move on.
When making a purchase, consider
the energy savings when you are buying a new refrigerator, dishwasher,
washer or dryer. There is a big difference in the level of energy use among
models in these categories. A frontload washer is typically more efficient
than a top-load and a new washer will

spin clothes better than an older unit


which will reduce drying time and
conserve energy. Manufacturers provide energy costs for each model
which makes comparisons easy. A
well-trained salesperson, can point
you in the right direction. He or she is
the appliance specialist and as a specialist, doesnt dabble in drywall or
gardening equipment.
Top freezer refrigerators are the
most efficient in this category and
there is very little difference in energy
use between a 15 cu.ft. model verses
a 21 cu.ft. refrigerator. It is best to
purchase the largest model that will
fit your space in order to eliminate
the need for additional refrigeration.
When purchasing a new dishwasher,
many models offer an energy saving
cycle with a no-heat dry option.
These two features will yield substantial energy savings. Finally, when
deciding on a new cooking appliance,
ranges that offer convection cooking
will reduce energy cost since they can
cook up to 30 percent faster and food
does not dry-out as it sometimes can
in a conventional oven.
Visit Appliances Plus Video for an
education on affordable and efficient
appliances. The store carries more
brands than any other appliance
retailer in the area and the sales staff
is professionally trained by factory
representatives on an ongoing basis.

Check gutters for leaks and debris.


Loose gutters cause improper drainage, so
water can collect in basements and crawl
spaces. Downspouts should point away from
the foundation of the house and must be
clear of all debris.

Remove piles of wood or debris stacked


near the home. Firewood should be kept far

ing on trees, increased animal activity and a
general feeling of renewal. However, one of
the more unpleasant signs that spring has
sprung is the emergence of termites.

As termites cause $5 billion in property


damage every year, the National Pest
Management Association offers these termite-prevention tips for homeowners:

Termites are known as "silent destroyers"


because of their ability to chew through
wood, flooring and even wallpaper undetected. Swarmers, looking to start a new colony,
are typically the first sign of termite season
as these winged pests show up inside homes
in early spring. It is important that homeowners do not mistake swarmers for flying
ants, as the two species look alike to an
untrained eye. Discarded wings near windowsills and doors signal that swarmers
have already found their way in.

Avoid water accumulation near the


home's foundation.
Keep mulch at least 15 inches from the
foundation.
Repair leaking faucets, water pipes and
AC units.
Replace weather stripping, and repair
loose mortar around basement foundation
and windows.
Store firewood at least 20 feet away
from the house and 5 inches off the ground.

In fact, 75 percent of Americans make


spring cleaning a part of their seasonal routine, according to a 2008 survey conducted
by the Spring Cleaning Survey by the Soap
and Detergent Association.
To ensure this is the year the car finally
fits into the garage, and guests, not storage,
occupy the spare bedroom, the Whirlpool
Institute of Fabric Science (instituteoffabricscience.com) and Gladiator
GarageWorks, a complete garage-organization system, offer their favorite tips to
spruce up the home this year:

Start Up
Your Pond!

Pinpoint areas of the home that


need immediate attention, and assign
family members to specific jobs. Involving
everyone gets the job done more quickly.
Tackle high-visibility areas first, like
entryways, living areas and the garage, then
assess storage needs. For example, a coordinated storage system with cabinets, hooks
and baskets helps organize home-improvement supplies, sports equipment and seasonal items.
Take inventory. If an item hasn't been
used in more than a year, consider throwing
it out or donating it.

Main Street Vineland volunteers will be embarking on a major clean-up and


planting project in downtown Vineland on two successive SaturdaysApril 16
and 23and they need your help.
Spring Clean-Up Day will take place, rain or shine, on April 16 from 9 a.m. to
12 p.m. Volunteers will focus on the mini-parks at Landis Avenue and the
Boulevard and various downtown locations--including planters, landscaping
around parking lots, and pedestrian alleyways. Volunteers from the Vineland
Police Athletic League's (PAL) Girls In Action will be helping that day with the
clean-up initiative
Spring Planting Day will take place, rain or shine, on April 23, from 9 a.m. to
12 p.m., when volunteers will plant flowers at the mini-parks at Landis Avenue
and the Boulevard, as well as other downtown focal points from the week
before. Volunteers from Vineland High Schools Interact Club will be helping to
plant.
Main Street Vineland is seeking additional volunteers for both of these projects to have sufficient coverage for some of the larger areas to be cleaned and
planted. Single volunteers, as well as clubs and organizations, are being sought
for this effort, as well as to "adopt" areas to maintain throughout the year.
Volunteers are also being sought who are interested in helping on a continuing
basis in keeping downtown Vineland looking good.
We have quite a few areas downtown that need to be maintained systematically. The more people we get, make these areas real focal points and instill a
real sense of pride in our downtown and our city, said Main Street Vineland
Executive Director Russell Swanson.
Various organizations come out on the third weekend of each month to help
with our Adopt-a-Block project, which we are coordinating with the City, to help
maintain what we accomplish and keep the clean-up effort going, Swanson
said. Our Design Team chairperson Maryam Nassiri and downtown maintenance man Wayne Joslin do tremendous job working with them and contributing to the effort on their own. We encourage even more people to join us in getting exercise while, at the same time, contributing to the beautification of our
downtown.
Volunteers will meet at the mini-parks at 9 a.m. both days and, though some
tools and equipment will be available, those volunteering should bring hand
tools and comfortable gardeners gloves, if they have them. Volunteers not
needed at the mini-parks will then go to other areas to clean-up and plant. Ivy
Acres of Vineland will again be donating the flowers this year. Free pizza will be
provided afterwards on both days to anyone who volunteers.
To volunteer, or for more information, call the Main Street Vineland office at
856-794-8653 or e-mail Swanson at rswanson@vinelandcity.org.

filter.
Dont forget to organize overlooked
parts of the home, like the laundry room,
where designating areas for sorting, treating, folding and ironing makes the seasonal
switch to warm weather outfits easier and
faster.
Regularly wash the washing
machine to remove odor-causing residue,
improve efficiency and ultimately save
money.
The last tip is especially important, as
removing odor-causing residue from the

washing machine extends its lifetime and


increases its cleaning abilities. While all
washers, no matter the make or model, have
the potential for odor-causing residue to
build up, high-efficiency models seal more
tightly and use less water than traditional
top-loading machines. Odor can occur when
residue from detergents, lint and soil accumulate in areas of the washer where water
cannot easily rinse.
Cleaning the washer every 30 days with
a washer-cleaning kit, along with the suggested tips in the appliances Users Guide,
will go a long way toward helping your
washer run at peak performance. I

Pond Startup for Spring


Pond season has started and its
time to get your pond up and running. My best advice would be to
clean your pond in the fall, but if you
didnt do it then, you can surely do it
now or call us and we can do it for
you. This would include moving the
fish into a holding tank and draining
the pond and doing a good thorough
cleaning, then properly moving the
fish back into the pond.
Spring is the time that you should
replace your filter pads with new
ones and replace the bulb in your
ultraviolet light. Once you have your
pond up and running, you can add
the proper water treatments. My recommendation is to add the following
products when starting your pond in
the spring.

Bacteriathis will seed the biological filter and give it a jumpstart.


This is important because you need
that bacteria to keep the water balanced as the fish start eating and
producing waste.

Foodyes, there are different


kinds of food depending on the time
of year. In spring when water temps
are cooler and the fish are eating for
the first time of the season, you
want to use a wheat germ-based
food. This food is softer, which
allows the fish to more easily digest.
Also, this food is high in carbs,
which will help the fish build its fat
back up after hibernating all winter.
You will want to use this type of food
for the first month (April) of feeding
your fish. As temps warm you can
switch to the higher protein food for
the summer.
