EPA Releases Proposed Changes to the Indian Environmental General Assistance Program

0

WASHINGTON (April 4, 2022) – Today, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released proposed changes to the guidance and allocation of the Indian Environmental General Assistance Program (GAP). GAP is EPA’s largest capacity building program for Tribes. Enacted by Congress in 1992, GAP provides grants and technical assistance to Tribes and intertribal consortia to plan, develop, and establish environmental protection programs and to implement solid and hazardous waste programs and service delivery activities. In FY21, $66.25M was awarded to more than 525 grantees to address their environmental priorities.

“GAP is one of the primary resources EPA uses to support our government-to-government partnership with Tribes. In the past 30 years, Tribes have made tremendous progress in building Tribal environmental program capacities with GAP, producing incredibly impactful and meaningful environmental outcomes,” said EPA Assistant Administrator Jane Nishida.

“GAP has assisted recipients across the nation to identify and address environmental priorities impacting their communities, homelands, and lifeways,” said JoAnn Chase, Director of American Indian Environmental Office.

The Tribal consultation opportunity on proposed changes to the National GAP Allocation and GAP Guidance on the Award and Management of General Assistance Agreements for Tribes and Intertribal Consortia begins today, April 4, 2022, and will continue through August 2, 2022. The draft changes reflect considerable input from Tribal governments, including consultations on how to improve the administration of GAP and potential changes to the allocation methodology, numerous tribal engagements, and tribal participation in guidance revision workgroups. The draft changes advance our government-to-government partnership with Tribes by providing greater flexibility, access, transparency and accountability in EPA’s funding and performance management approaches to GAP.

Throughout the year, the EPA’s American Indian Environmental Office (AIEO) is recognizing the 30th Anniversary of GAP by highlighting the successes of Tribes and the environmental improvements in their communities. Tribes have used GAP for a broad range of capacity building and solid and hazardous waste implementation activities, including assessment of environmental conditions and strategies to combat air, water, and land pollution, conducting public education and outreach to prepare and inform communities to participate in environmental decision-making, developing codes and ordinances, and training of tribal government inspectors to conduct compliance monitoring activities.

Additionally, GAP has helped Tribes receive 97 program delegations to date to administer programs relevant to the Clean Water Act, Safe Drinking Water Act, and the Clean Air Act, and has supported the development of nearly 300 Integrated Waste Management Plans for implementing tribal waste management programs.

Projects stemming from this Tribal grant opportunity will help achieve the goals of President Biden’s Justice40 initiative, which aims to ensure that federal agencies deliver at least 40% of benefits from certain investments to underserved communities.

Trailblazers pick up tough, resilient win over Conference foe Danville Area

0

VINCENNES, Ind. – The Vincennes University Trailblazers closed out their four-game weekend Mid-West Athletic Conference (MWAC) series with Danville Area Sunday afternoon with a grueling 7-6 win, which saw the Trailblazers use 17 players throughout the game.

The Jaguars took game one of the day 7-5 before Vincennes closed out the weekend with the 7-6 game two victory.

The first game of the day saw Vincennes grab an early lead, with sophomore Colin Long (Evansville, Ind.) getting a single in the first inning and would later score on a balk to give the Blazers the early 1-0 lead.

Danville Area responded quickly with four runs in the top of the second to grab the lead.

VU would cut the deficit in the third after freshmen Mahkai Pelzer (Douglasville, Ga.) and Kaden Elliott (New Albany, Ind.) reached on errors and scored on a two-RBI single by Long to cut the DACC lead to 4-3.

Danville Area would increase their lead back with a run in the fourth and a run in the fifth.

Vincennes would get one run back in the sixth after sophomore Connor VanLannen (Clinton, Ind.) led off the inning with a walk and scored on a wild pitch to make it a 6-4 game.

After the Jaguars picked up an insurance run in the 7th, Vincennes looked to complete the comeback in the final frame.

Colin Long led off the seventh with his third single of the game and would be driven in on a two-out RBI single by VanLannen.

The Trailblazers were unable to cut the deficit any further as Danville Area picked up the 7-5 win over Vincennes.

Sophomore Kestler Harbuck (Brooksville, Fla.) got the start on the mound for VU in game one of the day and lasted three and two-thirds innings, allowing five runs on seven hits and striking out three.

Sophomore Braedon Nichols (Sullivan, Ind.) was the first man out of the pen, throwing two and two-thirds innings, allowing two runs on four hits and striking out one.

Freshman Eli Steimel entered to get the final two outs of the seventh inning without damage.

Game two did not begin in the Trailblazers favor as freshman starter Kobe Bartlett (Rockport, Ind.) was forced to leave the game due to injury in the first inning after throwing just 16 pitches.

The Trailblazers looked to regroup after giving up an early run in the first and got a big spark off the bat of Colin Long who launched a solo home run, his second of the year, in the bottom half of the inning to tie the game at 1-1.

Vincennes would take the lead in the second after a leadoff double by Connor VanLannen and an RBI double by freshman Jordan Roth (Delphi, Ind.).

VU would add to this lead in the third with a pair of RBI singles by sophomores Peyton Lane (New Paris, Ohio) and VanLannen to take a 4-1 lead.

10th-inning walk-off caps-off Aces rally to secure series sweep

0
EVANSVILLE – Continuing to produce timely hits, the University of Evansville baseball team rallied from three-runs down to force extras, walking-off Michigan State, 5-4, in 10 innings on Sunday afternoon at German American Bank Field at Charles H. Braun Stadium in Evansville.
“We showed a lot of fight as a team today. Our pitching staff did a special job keeping us close and not letting it get too far away,” said Aces head baseball coach Wes Carroll. “Hardman was special picking up his first win as an Ace.  We had a tough time against their starter but never gave up.  A lot of great at bats late in the game to get it tied especially Mark Shallenberger’s two-run double.  Really proud of the fight and where we are at as we get close to Valley play.”

On the mound, starter Caleb Reinhardt recorded an impressive performance, going 5.1 innings, allowing two runs, while striking-out four, keeping the deficit manageable for Evansville. In relief, Tyler Denu and Drew Dominik each allowed a run, but kept the Spartans within reach. For the final three innings of work, Evansville called on Nate Hardman and the Bloomington, Ill. native was lights out. Hardman turned-in three-straight three up, three down innings, striking-out three while not allowing a hit or walking a batter.

At the plate, after going 0-for-2 to start the day, Shallenberger recorded two important hits, ending the day with a pair of doubles and three RBI to lead the offense. The 6-7-8 batters in the lineup, Danny Borgstrom, Brendan Hord, and Eric Roberts, all recorded a hit on the day.

A quick run in the top of the second inning gave the Spartans a 1-0 lead, but the Aces responded in the bottom half of the inning to tie the game at one as Borgstrom drove a double to right center, scoring Evan Berkey. Michigan State retook the lead in the next half inning at 2-1 and its an advantage that the Spartans held onto a while.

The Spartans boosted their lead to 4-1 in the seventh, getting a double from Trent Farquhar and an RBI base hit from Mitch Jebb. It took until the eighth, but Evansville had an answer for Michigan State. After the Aces loaded the bases, Ty Rumsey drew a walk to score one and Shallenberger stepped right up to tie the game with an RBI double up the middle, scoring Roberts and Rumsey.

The dominant performance on the mound for Hardman helped Evansville force extra innings, where Hardman sat down the Spartan side in order to give the Aces a chance in the bottom of the 10th. Evansville took advantage of its opportunity following a leadoff hit by pitch for Borgstrom. Roberts than ripped a single to center, followed by another walk from Rumsey, loading the bases. Shallenberger then came to the plate, taking the first pitch for a ball before fouling one off and having another called a strike. With a 1-2 count with oen out. Shallenberger stood in and took a 94 mph pitch from the Michigan State reliever, earning first base and pushing home Borgstrom to capture the walk-off win for the Aces.

The win secures Evansville’s first series sweep of a Big Ten opponent in program history.

Evansville continues its homestand on Tuesday, welcoming Indiana to German American Bank Field at 6 PM on Tuesday evening.

Goodin, Newman flirt with no-hitters as Eagles sweep Cardinals

0
EVANSVILLE, Ind.—Junior pitcher Allie Goodin (Evansville, Indiana) and freshman pitcher Josie Newman (Indianapolis, Indiana) each took a no-hitter into the sixth inning of their respective starts Sunday as University of Southern Indiana Softball swept a Great Lakes Valley Conference doubleheader from visiting William Jewell College Sunday afternoon at the USI Softball Field. The Screaming Eagles won the opener, 7-1, before taking the nightcap, 5-0.

Goodin (6-0) dominated the Cardinals’ hitters, allowing just two base runners through the first five innings of game one before a two-out walk and a run-scoring double broke up the no hitter and the shutout in the top f the sixth inning. Goodin, who allowed just one hit, finished the game with eight strikeouts.

At the plate, the Eagles got a two-run single from Goodin in the bottom of the first inning to take a quick 2-0 lead. The Eagles tacked on two more runs in the third inning on an RBI-single by senior designated player Katie Back (Indianapolis, Indiana) and a run-scoring double by junior shortstop Jordan Rager (Fishers, Indiana).

USI (26-8, 12-0 GLVC), which has won 14 straight games, scored three more times in the fourth to take a commanding seven-run lead. Sophomore outfielder Mackenzie Bedrick (Brownsburg, Indiana) had an RBI-triple and scored on a wild pitch to aid the Eagles in the fourth frame. Bedrick went a combined 3-of-6 at the plate with an RBI to lead the Eagles at the dish, while Goodin drove in a team-high three runs, including one in the bottom of the first inning of game two that capped off a two-run opening frame.

Sophomore first baseman Lexi Fair (Greenwood, Indiana) started the scoring in the second game with an RBI on a sacrifice bunt, while Goodin’s single two batters later put USI in front, 2-0.

The Eagles tacked onto that lead in the second inning as Newman’s first career collegiate hit left the playing area for a solo home run. USI tacked on two more tallies in the fifth when Goodin’s two-out hit was mishandled by the William Jewell second baseman, allowing a pair of Eagles to cross the plate.

Like Goodin, Newman (8-3) took a no-hitter into the sixth inning, but a walk, followed by a lead-off single spoiled her bid. Newman finished the day by allowing just two hits in her second complete-game shutout of the season. She finished with nine strikeouts en route to her fifth consecutive win.

William Jewell fell to 10-22 overall and 4-12 in GLVC play with the losses.

USI returns to action Saturday at noon when it travels to Springfield, Missouri, for a GLVC doubleheader against Drury University. The Panthers (26-9, 12-2 GLVC) are coming off a doubleheader sweep over host Lindenwood University Sunday and are currently second in the GLVC standings behind USI.
