Ladies and Gentlemen,
Here is the consolidation of the various program
documents for the Vector Control Program into a single volume. I would
like to take the opportunity to clear up any misconception from last
week’s meeting. It’s stated on a new posting on the Adena Brook web
site reporting on the aforementioned meeting that the Columbus Public
Health Standard Operational Procedures for the Vector Control have not
been updated since 1999. The Columbus Public Health Vector Control
Program’s written mosquito contol plan was reviewed in 1999 by the
Central Ohio Sierra Club and found to be consistent with Integrated
Pest Management principles. That document has evolved since then into
several separate operational documents – compiled here into one
manual. The SOP documents are reviewed at the end of each mosquito
season and the program is updated annually.
Regards,
Keith L. Krinn, RS, MA, DAAS, CPHA

Susan,
At 4:04 this afternoon I received a call from the City’s real estate office to inform us that a film crew is planning to be working in Overbrook Ravine starting Saturday morning – tomorrow. I have no information beyond this. CRPD was not contacted until just now. I was told they have a contract with the City through the Mayor’s Office and they’ve been going to different locations for their film. So. If you notice some strange activity, this might explain it…Since tomorrow is your last Clean Up for the year, you’ll probably see the crew out there.
I am hoping all goes well.

Question: If you live on Canyon Drives, North, South and Northeast Lenappe Drive, let me know by sending an email to susanbarrett@columbus.rr.com if you would be interested in having a rain garden installed along the street in front of your home. The more rain gardens we install in the neighborhood, the more we reduce the effects of erosion due to stormwater runoff
