OLD NATIONAL EVENTS PLAZA HOSTS SUPERIOR COURTS & INTRODUCES NEW SAFETY MEASURES

0

The Old National Events Plaza partially reopened on Tuesday, May 26, 2020 to host three Vanderburgh County Superior Courtrooms.  In a transition plan outlined by the County Circuit and Superior Courts, proceedings for Juvenile, Small Claims and pro se misdemeanor matters will be held at Old National Events Plaza through July 3, 2020, and possibly longer.

Only attorneys, parties, witnesses, and those with official business in the County Clerk’s office will have access to Old National Events Plaza, and strict safety measures will be in place.  Those entering the venue will be required to wear facemasks and be screened for possible COVID-19 exposure.   The process includes a brief four question health survey and temperature check via infra-red touchless thermometer at points of entry to the Old National Events Plaza.

In addition, Old National Events Plaza has installed social distancing markers throughout the facility and designed room layouts to accommodate a minimum of 6’ between parties inside the courtrooms and waiting areas.  Other venue safety measures introduced under Stages 2 and 3 of Governor Holcomb’s “Back on Track Indiana” plan include:

  • Increased availability of hand sanitizer throughout the facility.
  • An isolation area where guests that become ill while at the facility can be isolated and receive preliminary medical treatment.
  • Increased frequency of cleaning and disinfecting in all public and service areas.
  • Highly prevalent signage and communication of safety protocols throughout the facility.
  • Consideration for longer ingress windows and controlled egress plans.
  • Post-event reviews with venue staff and clients to assess health and safety operations.

A comprehensive Operations Recovery and Reopening Plan has been developed and will guide Old National Events Plaza through the five stages of reopening. The plan will be closely monitored and adjusted in the coming weeks and months to appropriately respond to local conditions and updated guidelines.  The presentation of a complete communications plan, designed to introduce the public to new safety protocol, is included and planned under Stage 4.  More detailed information regarding Old National Events Plaza’s Operations Recovery and Reopening Plan is available upon request.

Vanderburgh County, Local Communities Eligible For More Than $9.7M In Pandemic Relief

0

Vanderburgh County and local communities are eligible for more than $9.7 million to cover COVID-19-related expenses through the federal stimulus package, according to local legislators.

Indiana allocated $300 million in federal funding from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economics Security Act to counties and communities for reimbursement of expenditures related to the pandemic. State Rep. Matt Hostettler (R-Fort Branch) said the funding, allocated based on population, cannot be used to replace lost tax revenue.

“Some communities are suffering more economic consequences than others fighting this virus,” Hostettler said. “Local officials have done a great job keeping Hoosiers safe, and this funding can help recoup money spent that wasn’t expected.”

Vanderburgh County is eligible for $5,871,481 in reimbursement funding, with Darmstadt eligible for $46,329 and Evansville eligible for $3,827,165.

State Rep. Wendy McNamara (R-Evansville) said local towns seeking reimbursement for eligible COVID-19 expenses should coordinate with their county government.

“Receiving these funds will help ease the unexpected expenses our community incurred while responding to the unforeseen impact of the virus,” McNamara said. “This isn’t something officials could have predicted to budget for, so this money could really help us at the local level.”

According to State Rep. Holli Sullivan (R-Evansville), the Indiana Finance Authority is in charge of implementing guidelines on how each county, city, and town can use the funding, as well as compiling reimbursement requests through accepted documentation including invoices.

“Local governments are resourceful and looking for any funds available to fight COVID-19,” Sullivan said. “This money can help communities recover certain costs as they worked to protect Hoosiers and fight this virus.”

 

UE’s Commitment To Diversity, Equity, And Inclusion

U E

The following Univerity-wide message was sent today to all employees, students and faculty from President Christopher M. Pietruskiewicz:

Our UE community and our nation mourns the recent tragic deaths of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and Breonna Taylor. I am deeply saddened by the increase in acts of violence and hate rather than understanding and compassion. Many African Americans in our community are experiencing a sense of deep personal loss as a result of these events, and we want you to know that we stand with you during this difficult time. At the University of Evansville, we must prepare our students for an increasingly complex world, and that is not an easy task. It is imperative that we learn from experiences, history, cultures, values, beliefs, and views different from our own and that we strive to become more empathic and more compassionate every day. At UE, we respect and value differences of all kinds, and we depend on the contributions of a diverse community as we face the challenges around us. We recognize that inclusion leads to personal growth and collective clarity. Our commitment to foster a diverse range of cultures and perspectives reflects the characteristics required to thrive in an increasingly diverse global society. Accordingly, we deplore any actions that silence or threaten members of our campus and the local community. We strongly condemn prejudice and discrimination expressed in racial violence wherever it occurs.

Now, perhaps more than ever before, we must endeavor to fulfill our University’s mission:

“To empower each student to think critically, act bravely, serve responsibly, and live meaningfully in a changing world.”

These eighteen simple words carry extraordinary meaning during this difficult time. In a world that has seen far too much inequality, injustice, and racism, now is the time to bravely enact changes necessary to bring about a future where equity and inclusion are the norm and where hatred and violence are not tolerated.

Students at the University of Evansville shape powerful and enduring change. UE is the first in Indiana to be designated as an Ashoka U Changemaker Campus, and its changemaking culture empowers students to improve the world around them as UE Changemakers. With over 80 majors in the arts and sciences and pre-professional programs, UE’s diverse student body represents 44 states and 52 countries. U.S. News & World Report recognizes UE as the #6 Best College in the Midwest among private schools. For more information, please visit www.evansville.edu

EPA Issues Final Rule that Helps Ensure U.S. Energy Security and Limits Misuse of the Clean Water Act

0
U.S. stakeholders via conference call, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Andrew Wheeler announced a final rule that will help accelerate and promote the construction of important energy infrastructure across the United States, while ensuring the nation’s waterways are protected. The agency’s final rule increases the transparency and efficiency of the Clean Water Act Section 401 (Section 401) certification process in order to promote the timely review of infrastructure projects while continuing to ensure that Americans have clean water for drinking and recreation.

“EPA is returning the Clean Water Act certification process under Section 401 to its original purpose, which is to review potential impacts that discharges from federally permitted projects may have on water resources, not to indefinitely delay or block critically important infrastructure,” said EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler. “Today, we are following through on President Trump’s Executive Order to curb abuses of the Clean Water Act that have held our nation’s energy infrastructure projects hostage, and to put in place clear guidelines that finally give these projects a path forward.”

EPA finalized this rule pursuant to the direction of Executive Order 13868, “Promoting Energy Infrastructure and Economic Growth.” In this Executive Order, President Trump directed EPA to review Section 401 and EPA’s related regulations and guidance to determine whether the agency’s policies should be updated or clarified. In this final rule, EPA conducted the first comprehensive analysis of the text, structure and legislative history of Section 401. The final rule:

  • Specifies statutory and regulatory timelines for review and action on a Section 401 certification—requiring final action to be taken within one year of receiving a certification request.
  • Clarifies the scope of Section 401, including clarifying that 401 certification is triggered based on the potential for a project to result in a discharge from a point source into a water of the United States. When states look at issues other than the impact on water quality, they go beyond the scope of the Clean Water Act.
  • Explains EPA’s roles under Section 401.
  • Reaffirms the agency’s statutory responsibility to provide technical assistance to any party involved in a Section 401 water quality certification process.
  • Promotes early engagement and coordination among project proponents, certifying authorities and federal licensing and permitting agencies.

To read the final rule and to learn about the Clean Water Act Section 401 water quality certification process, please visit https://www.epa.gov/cwa-401.

Gov. Beshear Provides Update On COVID-19

FRANKFORT, Ky. (June 1, 2020) – Gov. Andy Beshear on Monday updated Kentuckians on the state’s efforts to fight the novel coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19).

Case information
As of 4 p.m. June 1, Gov. Beshear said there were at least 10,046 COVID-19 cases in Kentucky. The Governor provided updated information about coronavirus newly confirmed Sunday and Monday in Kentucky.

“Kentucky has had 131 new positive cases with zero new deaths on Sunday and 214 new cases with eight new deaths on Monday,” reported Dr. Steven Stack, Commissioner for Public Health. “We continue our efforts to expand testing, ramp up contact tracing and urge the public to practice social distancing and wear cloth face coverings to reduce the spread of COVID-19.”

The total number of reported deaths attributed to coronavirus stands at 439 Kentuckians.

The deaths reported Monday include an 84-year-old woman from Campbell County; an 82-year-old woman from Gallatin County; a 98-year-old woman from Grayson County; three men, ages 33, 53 and 75, from Jefferson County; a 90-year-old woman from Kenton County; and an 88-year-old man from Logan County.

The Governor reminded Kentuckians to light their homes, places of business and places of worship green for compassion.

At least 3,232 Kentuckians have recovered from the virus. For additional information, including up-to-date lists of positive cases and deaths, as well as breakdowns of coronavirus infections by county, race and ethnicity: for Sunday’s information, click here; for Monday’s information, click here.

Monday morning
Monday, the Governor addressed an event that occurred when the Louisville Metro Police Department (LMPD) and the Kentucky National Guard were dispatched to 26th and Broadway around 12 a.m. Monday. While working to disperse a crowd, LMPD and the Kentucky National Guard were fired upon. LMPD and the Kentucky National Guard returned fire resulting in a death.

“Given the seriousness of the situation, I have authorized the Kentucky State Police to independently investigate the event,” the Governor stated.

Gov. Beshear also joined Breonna Taylor’s mother, Tamika Palmer, along with attorney Lonita Baker to speak about the search for justice in Taylor’s death and the need for calm on the streets of Louisville. To view the news conference, click here.
