Plans to continue the Com­ prehensive Alcohol Safety Program have been approved by the Division of Traffic Safety of the Illinois Department of Transportation. The project will be coor­ dinated by the McHenry County Sheriffs Department and will include the Richmond and Hebron police departments. The purpose of the project is to reduce alcohol-related accidents along the state line by 16 percent through an intensive public information and education campaign and increased en­ forcement of the DUI law. Sgt. George Corson of the sheriffs department said police officers will be "hired back" during off-duty hours to patrol areas of the county which have experienced a large number of alcohol-related accidents. Corson, as safety education officer for the sheriffs depart­ ment, said that in addition to monthly releases to the media, he will make appearances before civic and educational groups. About 62 percent of the $198,902 cost of the project will be reimbursed to the county through federal funds made available to the state for high­ way safety programs. The increased law en­ forcement crackdown against drunken driving, funded by the federal grant, resulted in 48 alcohol-related traffic arrests last Friday night and early Saturday morning by police manning a border checkpoint on U.S. 12 near the Wisconsin state line at Richmond. More than 400 cars were stopped at the border in four hours. The statewide crackdown last weekend resulted in a total of 764 arrests, including those in McHenry County: 142 for drunken driving, 416 for carrying open liquor in a vehicle, 41 for driving on suspended or revoked driver's licenses and 38 for other criminal charges.

Accurate acreage reports assure program compliance Now that the signup period is over for all 1984 acreage reduction programs and far­ mers have finished planting crops, the next program requirement is crop cer­ tification.

The reports are necessary to determine program compliance and to document crop acreages for future programs." Before farmers can receive price support loans, deficiency payments and other program benefits, they are required to report crops and acreages planted, the uses to be made of these crops, and cropland acres to be devoted to the acreage conservation reserve. When farmers report to the county ASCS office, they can review aerial photographs of their farm and pinpoint the fields in which the crops are grown. That in­ formation is then recorded and serves as documentation for program compliance and crop acreage bases. In addition to history purposes, the reports are also necessary to prove crop yields. Maraccini said crop cer­ tification is most important to farmers who are participating in the 1984 programs because without an acreage report, farmers are not really par ticipating. "They must give us an acreage reort in order for us to determine the level at which they are eligible for program payments and other benefits." All crop acreages must be reported. These include corn, wheat, barley, grain sorghum, soybeans, hay and pasture and vegetables. In McHenry County, the final certification dates for small grains was June 1, and for all other crops is July 15. r-z Maraccini said acreage reports need to be as accurate as possible. "We do have a spot check program to check on the accuracy of these reports, so the more accurate the report, the less trouble the farmer has to qualify for program benefits." The ASCS official said that producers not participating in the 1984 programs should report their crop acreages to insure the opportunity to fully participate in future farm programs.
