Videos: Appointment to Tourism Authority, Roads and Towers @ LCC 2018-09-24

“You have an appointee information sheet in your packet,”
said County Manager Joe Pritchard, and that’s all we learned about
Michael Smith, who did not appear to speak, either,
at yesterday morning’s Work Session.
County Chairman Bill Slaughter did encourage the Commissioners
to send in information sheets on any other nominees they might come up with

for the Tourism Authority
before tonight’s 5:30 PM voting Regular Session.
He did not encourage the public to apply.
But if you want to, here is
the application form.


Also apparently

the Internet really is made of pipes.
It’s durious how the county

but can’t use
its plethora of towers to help with citizen Internet access.

And the county

The whole meeting before that took just under 8 minutes.

Appointment to Tourism Authority, Roads and Towers @ LCC 2018-09-24

Valdosta-Lowndes County Conference Center And Tourism Authority,

Langdale Co. and Atlanta Gas Light: first public CNG station

Talked about for a while, now it’s happened: a compressed natural gas (CNG)
fueling station; first one in Georgia, apparently.
I’m used to natural gas pipelines (the AGL pipeline pictured runs through
my property).
Unfortunately, natural gas increasingly comes from fracking.
How about an electric car charging station? -jsq

PR from AGL yesterday,

Atlanta Gas Light teams up with The Langdale Company to open first public CNG station under the AGL CNG Program,


Warning High Pressure Natural Gas
ATLANTA—July 23, 2013—The first compressed natural gas
(CNG) fueling station developed under the Atlanta Gas Light (AGL)
CNG Program is now open in Valdosta, GA. Approved by the Georgia
Public Service Commission (PSC) in 2012, the program is designed to
expand public access to the CNG fueling infrastructure throughout
the state and enhance Georgia’s role in the emerging CNG market in
the southeastern U.S.



Built and maintained by Langdale Fuel, an affiliate of The Langdale
Company, the new station is the first of five CNG stations awarded
contracts to go into service under the AGL CNG Program. The station
will offer public access to CNG fuel for transportation vehicles,
adding two fueling islands to the company’s existing service station
located at 1628 James P. Rogers Drive.

“Our goal in creating the AGL CNG Program was Continue reading →
