Board Of Health Views Mosquito Abatement PAGE 15-PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, APRIL 18, 1973 The County Board of Health realizes that it is well known that historically mosquitoes have been the vectors in diseases such as yellow fever, malaria, dengue, and en cephalitis. In parts of the world where these diseases have been endemic or epidemic, public health officials have used pesticides to control the adult mosquitoes in an attempt to arrest the spreading of the disease. Also, the Board of Health is allowed to initiate and carry out any program or activity not inconsistent with law that was deemed necessary or desireable in the promotion and protection of health and in the control of disease. Based on the above in formation, plus the fact that the members of the Board of Health is vitally interested in the health of the entire population of McHenry county, the board makes the following recommendations concerning a Mosquito Abatement program for McHenry county: 1. Any Mosquito Abatement program in McHenry county should be carried on under the direction of the McHenry County Department of Health. 2. Generalized community spraying for adult mosquito control should not be done on a routine basis, but should only be done during an endemic or epidemic situation when rapid reduction of the mosquito population would be necessary to arrest the transmission of disease by the mosquito population. 3. Localized and selective spraying for adult mosquitoes should only be used when the McHenry County Department of Health finds it to be warranted to promote the entire health (mental as well as physical) of the specific area involved. 4. A mosquito survey in cluding both adult and larva levels should be performed in McHenry county to determine the prevalent species of mosquitoes, the location of their breeding sites, their densities, and their flight range. This study should be done under the direction of the McHenry County Department of Health. 5. An educational effort should be made throughout the county to inform individual property owners what measures they can take to help control mosquitoes such as preventing mosquito breeding in stagnant shaded pools, old tires, bird baths, clogged gutters, etc. 6. Where breeding sites are located, they should be eliminated whenever possible. 7. This Health department will continue to review new, effective and safe means to deal with the mosquito problem. The McHenry County Board of Health realizes that this statement of policy is using general terms and not in volving itself with the specifics of putting such a plan into action. The Board believes that this should be left up to the department's administrator, using the capabilities of both the McHenry County Depart ment of Health's Division of Veterinary Public Health, and the Division of Environmental Health in conjunction with guidance from the State Health department. No Changes In Recreational Vehicle Fees There has been no change in registration fees for recreational vehicles, farm trucks, and farm trailers, Secretary of State Michael J. Howlett said this week. "There has been some confusion in pre-printed ap plications for new registrations," Howlett said. Deuster Urges Construction Of Valley Expressway State Rep. Donald E. Deuster (R. Mundelein) has urged the new Illinois Secretary of Transportation, Langhorne Bond, to approve development of the Fox Valley Expressway on the "user fee" method of high way financing as part of the Illinois Toll Highway system. As part of his major mass transit - highway legislative program, Deuster has spon sored H.B. 222 to study the feasibility of building the 68- mile Fox Valley expressway from Lockport in Will county northward along western DuPage county into eastern McHenry county to a junction with Highway 12 near the Wisconsin line. In a letter to Secretary Bond, Deuster stated: "The counties and communities along the Fox corridor are most anxious for the construction of this high way soon before the right-of- way disappears. Should we delay, and that happen, there would be another ferocious plitical battle such as we suf fered over the controversial Crosstown Expressway." Deuster told Bond that he believes the Fox Valley would "A universal form in use this year has replaced separate forms for each of the four second division vehicle categories." Vehicle type is printed in the upper right corner of the ap plication, but with limited space, only the fee schedule for trucks is printed on the reverse side of the form. An insert was printed listing the schedules for recreational vehicles, farm trucks, and farm trailers. This insert was mailed with the pre printed applications for these vehicles. June 30 is the statutory deadline for registration of second division vehicles. Reassignment of "^present numbers for second division vehicles must be in the Secretary's office with the proper fee by April 30. he a "great financial success' and had "the highest potential of any route in Illinois." The cost of the feasibility study is estimated at $200,000 and would be repaid from toll revenue once the Fox Valley was in operation. Deuster noted that "user fee" development of the Fox Valley would free about $188 million in Motor Fuel Tax funds for highway im provement purposes elsewhere in Illinois. Service Side Of Savings Bonds The Treasury maintains complete registry, on microfilm, of all owners of Savings bonds. It enables quick replacement of any bond lost, stolen, or destroyed, and the service is performed at no cost to the bond-owner. The Treasury's Savings bonds division maintains a complete stock of pamphlets and brochures which explain various phases of the bond program; how it leads the way to individual security, while contributing to judicious management of the national debt structure. Typical material, designed for general consumption, shows how Savings bonds can be used to build an educational fund or retirement program; details the difference between Series E and Series H bonds, the two series being offered currently. These publications may be obtained, free, through any state office of the Sayings bonds division, normally located in the largest city. ON DEAN'S LIST Carol A. Curran has been placed on the dean's list of superior students for the current semester in the College of Physical Education, Department of Health and Safety Education, University of Illinois.
