The Call of The Pewee Volume 49, No. 1 www.peweevalleyky.org Jan, 2017 Through FY2016, the Curry’s Fork Watershed Co- ordinator worked on the early stages of implementing the Curry’s Fork Watershed Plan which is a strategy to assess and manage information for the watershed, and includes analyses, actions, participants, and resources for its successful application. The Curry’s Fork plan re- quires on-the-ground BMPs to reduce pollution coming from urban stormwater, falling on-site wastewater sys- tems, agriculture, and the loss of riparian zones around water bodies. This combination of issues can create a diverse group of stakeholders, often with different goals, and the Watershed Coordinator helps find com- monalities and issues upon which everyone can work. To successfully carry out the strategies of the plan, the Watershed Coordinator developed a targeted cam- paign to engage stakeholders within the community and build support for the project. These activities included presenting watershed education and outreach programs at community events such as “Oldham County Day”, the “Putting Nature to Work in Your Landscape” work- shop, and organizing community meetings such as the “Curry’s Fork Fest”, where citizens learned about the issues in their watershed and how the Watershed Plan is attempting to address them. The Watershed Coordina- tor also worked to reach out to the community through multiple media outlets, including radio and television ads, mailers, and social media, building awareness and recruiting volunteers. The coordinator recently formed a technical advisory committee involving local govern- ment, state agencies (DOW, and the Kentucky Depart- ment of Fish and Wildlife Resources), University of Kentucky Cooperative Extension Service, the Natural A Case Study: The Curry’s Fork (Oldham County) Watershed Coordinator Resource Conservation Service, local health depart- ments, agricultural producers, and other experts to help inform the planning process. A targeted restoration project on South Curry’s Fork seeks to address issues of streambank stability and flood control. Areas along the stream are experi- encing high levels of erosion, flooding, and riparian habitat degradation, resulting in poor water quality and property loss and damage. The Watershed Coordinator is assisting the property owners in making streambank modifications to decrease erosion rates and halt the loss of land to the creek, and has been engaging with lo- cal homeowners associations bordering the stream to encourage “No Mow” and “Pollinator Habitat” areas along the waterway to build a robust riparian zone that will help prevent erosion and filter stormwater runoff. In addition, the Watershed Coordinator has initiated the groundwork for an Onsite Wastewater Incentive Grant Program. This cost-sharing program will aid residents with septic repair and replacement in an effort to reduce bacteria inputs to the watershed. In preparation for this effort, the Watershed Coordinator has advertised the program, researched appropriate target areas, and es- tablished partnerships with the health department to de- velop workshops that will teach the public about proper septic care and maintenance. This case study was included in the Kentucky Division of Water’s 2016 Annual Report. Across the state, DOW supports positions for 12 Watershed Coordinators who work with watershed plans in tar- geted areas to bring about quantitative, positive water quality im- provements through implementation of voluntary BMPs. Watershed Coordinators work to unify the efforts of other agencies

COLONEL WILLIAM OLDAHMOldham County Judge-Executive David
Voegele has helped design a commemorative coin to recognize contributions to the construction fund for a statue of county namesake Colonel William Oldham.
Voegele said the 2.25-inch coins will provide a token of appreciation for anyone who has contrib-uted to the statue.
Oldham County Fiscal Court agreed to com-nmision artist Matt Weir to build the statue. It is expected to cost between $128,500 and $134,000. Currently, Voegele has raised $93,000 and sales of the coins may help raise the rest of the funding needed. A minimum donation of $35 is necessary to receive a coin. Colonel Oldham was an officer in the Revo-lutionary War and served as sheriff of Jefferson County, VA., which includes modern day Oldham County. He was among 120 members of the Colo-nial army who marched from Virginia to Boston covering a distance of 600 miles within 23 days. He also served under Geroge Washington at Valley Forge.

The Center for Holistic Healing in Pewee Valley is excited to announce they will now be of-fering Functional Movement and Massage Ther-apy. Marda Mills recently joined their team after relocating with her family from Chicago. In Chi-cago, she owned a very well respected Functional Movement and Massage Therapy business. Her added healing modality is a great complement to the services provided at CHH!
Marda has an innate understanding of the body through her years as an athlete, which she combined with a degree from the Wellness and Massage Training Institute to become a body-worker. After several years of practicing massage therapy, she realized many chronic injuries were rooted in dysfunctional movement. This realiza-tion led to additional certifications including: NeuroKinetic Therapy ™, Barefoot Training and Rehab, Rocktape, FMS, Restorative Breathing and Structural Integration. Marda is a board certi-fied, licensed massage therapist. She charges $75/hr for both movement and massage therapy and will tailor your session to best suit your needs.
Contact her either by phone or text at 630-779-1094 or email her at [email protected] to book an appointment.
