Fwd: [RCAC] Stream monitoring workshop this Saturday

by Emrys Treasure

Good skills to have in general, and particularly if involved with any adopt-a-stream work. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Mark Turner <jmarkturner(a)gmail.com> Date: Thu, Aug 23, 2012 at 8:51 AM Subject: [RCAC] Stream monitoring workshop this Saturday To: RCAC List <rcac(a)eastraleigh.org> Cc: Mac Smith <Mac.Smith(a)raleighnc.gov> Hey RCAC folks! I just found out about a free workshop the city is conducting this Saturday to train citizens to help monitor the health of our city's streams. Thought the registration deadline has passed, Mac Smith told me that the class is only half-full at the moment. You might want to share this with your members in case others are interested in this opportunity. Have them contact Mac Smith with the city's Stormwater Utility dept at 919.996.4008 or mac.smith(a)raleighnc.gov Cheers, Mark RCAC Chair --------------------------------------- http://www.raleighnc.gov/services/news/content/CorNews/Articles/EnvStreamMo… Stream Monitoring Workshop Event posted Jul. 25, 2012 - 1:58 pm Calling all volunteers interested in the Stream Monitoring Program! Are you interested in the health of your neighborhood stream? This volunteer program may be just for you! Raleigh residents have been developing a keen interest in the water quality of their local neighborhood streams. Many things (particularly the impact of living in urbanized areas) can have an impact on water quality, affecting a stream's health. The Stream Monitoring Program, funded by the Stormwater Utility, empowers residents to monitor a stream of their choice for 1 year. Volunteers are provided with monitoring equipment to perform benthic macro invertebrate surveys and analyze chemical parameters in the water. After each monitoring date, volunteer groups send in their recorded data to Raleigh Stormwater Utility staff. Data is then posted to the City of Raleigh website so volunteer groups can compare data with other groups across Raleigh. Before joining the Stream Monitoring Program, volunteers must attend an orientation workshop to learn the sampling techniques that must be used by all groups to keep data collection consistent and reliable. Only 15 [MT: now just 7] seats are available for the upcoming orientation workshop on August 25. Pre-registration is required. Contact Mac Smith to register today! Registration closes on Friday, August 17. When Aug 25, 2012 10:00 am - 12:30 pm Location Walnut Creek Wetland Center 950 Peterson Street Raleigh, NC 27610 _______________________________________________ RCAC mailing list RCAC(a)eastraleigh.org http://www.eastraleigh.org/mailman/listinfo/rcac

RE: [East-CAC] Fw: [upha-discussion] Anyone missing a Trek bicycle?

There was actually a case report in the CAC where a Trek bike was taken. Senior Officer J.A.

Over a week ago, what looks to me like a quality Trek bicycle showed up on the lawn of the apartments on the southeast corner of Chamberlain and Mayview. The folks in the apartments say it's not theirs, so instead of watching it continue to get rained on for another week or two, I took it in and will post a Found Bike note to Craigslist later tonight. If anyone had a Trek bicycle go missing recently, tell me the color and a couple of the attachments you had on it and I'll be happy to return it to you.

Suspicious person in neighborhood

by matt ramey

Emrys, can you forward this to the East CAC group?? Today we had an incident, we called 911. Jillian left our house on Milburnie to go do some shopping & noticed a black male on a bike starring at her and waving. She waved & moved on. Later when she got home, she heard the dog barking in the back room (thank god we have a dog) and when she went to see what was going on, the man was standing on our back deck looking in the door way. She slammed the door and locked it and called 911. He then ran away and left on his bike. The officer who responded said to call 911 if we see him again....if ANYONE sees this man, PLEASE call 911 and give a description and let him know he's been seen peeping into people's houses. Description: Black Male, in his 20s, short hair, medium brown skin, 6ft or more tall, thin build, red athletic shirt with a number on the back, jeans, on a mountain bike. Both times seen riding from Milburnie up Donnelly. Again, if you see this man, CALL 911 PLEASE PASS THIS ON

Hi Neighbors, Don't forget that today is your East CAC Community Day! It's taking place at Lion's Park Community Center from 11:00 - 3:00 and will be filled with fun, food, music and socializing! Come on out and enjoy your greater neighborhood! See you there! Ginger -- Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught, will we realize that we cannot eat money. ~ 19th century Cree saying Hasta que el último árbol sea cortado, hasta que el último río sea contaminado, hasta que el último pescado sea atrapado; solo entonces nos daremos cuenta que el dinero no se puede comer. ~ profecia Indios Cree

Matt, any word from Officer K concerning the breakins on Milburnie?

13 years, 4 months

About the break in again

by matt ramey

Hi Logview....it has been over 24 hours since I sent out an email about the break in on Thursday, the 2nd break in on this block in a month. The 3 robbers were seen and we have a idea of where they went and might live. I find it disheartening that there has been no communication since that email within this community. I'm sorry to call people out, but I've also emailed Matt and Officer K individually twice hoping for a response, and all we've gotten is silence. While cookouts and clean ups are awesome and very fun, and fireworks are annoying, there is a very real crime problem in our neighborhood, especially on Milburnie Rd between New Bern and Raleigh Blvd, and to have those problems go unaddressed is both frustrating and disheartening. I thought one of the main parts of Community Watch is to help keep our community safe. I don't see how that can happen if there is no communication, especially from our leaders in the community. I will be calling the SE police district today and tomorrow in hopes of getting some help about this issue and hopefully some better police presence on Milburnie. There are a lot of children and elderly on this street, along with a lot of riff raff that need to be dealt with and I hope everyone will please be diligent in communicating with one another, as well as the leaders of community watch communicating with us. Otherwise, all of our homes will be more at risk to this type of activity. I'm sorry if this sounds bitchy or confrontational, but we really don't know what else to do. Hope everyone is well, stay safe. Matt Ramey
