Eagles Pull Off Another Comeback, Drop Valdosta State In Five

0

AUGUSTINE, Fla.—Junior outside hitter Shelbi Morris(Brazil, Indiana) and freshman outside hitter Mikaila Humphrey(Floyd Knobs, Indiana) combined for 35 kills as University of Southern Indiana Volleyball rallied from another two-set deficit, this time posting a 16-25, 19-25, 25-23, 25-15, 15-10 come-from-behind victory over Valdosta State University in its third match of the Flagler Invitational Saturday morning.

After struggling to muster any type of offensive attack in the first two sets, the Screaming Eagles found themselves facing a 19-13 deficit in the third frame. Two straight kills by junior middle hitter Te’Ayla Whitfield (Fort Wayne, Indiana) sparked USI’s comeback.

Whitfield and freshman right side hitter Amanda Jung (Belleville, Illinois) combined for three kills moments later as USI trimmed the Trailblazers’ advantage to 22-21. USI tied the set at 22-22 on a kill from Humphrey; then took advantage of back-to-back Valdosta State attacking errors to build a 24-23 advantage.

Sophomore defensive specialist Haley Limper (Springfield, Illinois) had a kill from the back row to give the Eagles the two-point win and keep their hopes alive.

After seeing Whitfield and Jung combine for seven kills and a .350 attacking percentage in the third set, Morris and Humphrey took over in the fourth frame as the Eagles offense exploded to the tune of a .435 attacking percentage. Morris racked up seven of her match-high 19 kills in the fourth frame, while Humphrey hammered down five kills in six swings as USI cruised to a 10-point win to even the match at two sets.

USI used a pair of 3-0 bursts early in the deciding frame to establish a 7-3 lead it would not relinquish. Humphrey, who had 12 of her 16 kills in the final three sets, had four kills and a .375 attacking percentage in the fifth frame as USI earned its second straight five-set victory.

In addition to Morris and Humphrey, the Eagles got five kills and seven blocks from Whitfield, while junior libero Shannon Farrell (Munster, Indiana) finished with 16 digs and four aces. Senior setter Quin Shoultz (Columbus, Indiana) had a match-high 43 assists and 17 digs, while Morris and Limper finished with 13 and 11 digs, respectively.

USI concludes the Flagler Invitational today at 3:30 p.m. when it takes on Brevard College. The Eagles defeated the Tornados in three sets in their first match Friday.

EPA Moves Swiftly to Carry Out New Chemical Reform Legislation

0

Agency tackles new legislative mandates set forth in first major update to environmental statute in 20 years

WASHINGTON— U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is taking action to ensure that the Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act, signed this June 22, 2016, delivers on the promise of better protecting the environment and public health. This bipartisan bill to reform the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) outlines a number of responsibilities for EPA that must be completed within a tight timeframe.

The milestones accomplished by the agency include:

•A plan released on June 29, 2016, that outlines activities for the first year of implementing the new law;

•The first determinations completed on seven premanufacture notices under TSCA in July, 2016. The new law requires the agency to make affirmative determinations on new chemical substances before they can enter the marketplace. Additional determinations will be released as they are completed;

•A series of public meetings held from August 9-12, 2016, to obtain comments and feedback from stakeholders on the processes that will be used to establish fees and prioritize and evaluate chemicals under the new law;

•A list of five mercury compounds released on August 26, 2016, that will be prohibited from export as of January 1, 2020. This action will prevent the ability to convert these compounds to elemental mercury after export from the United States.

Additionally, the agency is establishing the Science Advisory Committee on Chemicals (SACC) to provide independent advice and expert consultation on scientific and technical aspects on risk evaluations, methodologies, and pollution prevention measures or approaches. The call for nominations to serve on this committee was issued on August 26, 2016.

The new amendments to TSCA will help bring significant improvements to public health as EPA continues to take the steps necessary for its successful implementation.
