Since the Affordable CareAct went into effect Jan. 1,there has been an enrollmentjump of 36 percent in the 12-county South Country HealthAlliance (SCHA) insuranceprogram.

The news was presented ina semi-annual report to theSibley County Board ofCommissioners at the May 27meeting by Leota Lind, SouthCountry Health Alliance Ex-ecutive Director.

SCHA is a county-basedmanaged care purchasingprogram that incorporatesboth medical and social serv-ices, enabling the 12 mem-bers to receive services in acomprehensive and cohesivemanner.

The income-based programis for people eligible for Min-nesota Health Care Programsin one of the counties.

Lind reported on the enroll-ment impact SCHA is seeingas a result of the AffordableCare Act that started the firstof the year. Particularly, shenoted how it relates to the eli-gibility requirements formedical assistance and Min-nesota Care (MNCare).

“As a result of the Afford-able Care Act we have seen asignificant increase of 36 per-cent in our enrollment, partic-ularly in the first quarter of2014,” said Lind. “We ended2013 with just under 22,800enrollees. By April 1 our en-rollment had increased by al-most 31,000.”

Sibley County’s enrollmentin that same time period forall programs provided in-creased by more than 500 to1,751 since Jan. 1.

Lind explained that in onechart there was a big jump inenrollment in MNCare inSibley County in December.However, in January thatdropped from 148 to 56. Atthe same time enrollment inMedicaid went up.

“The reason for that is thatpeople who were previouslyserved under MNCare nowqualify for medical assis-tance,” said Lind. “They nowmove from the MNCareproduct into the Medicaidproduct.”

Lind said the reason for thebig jump is the governmentchanged the eligibility re-quirements. The biggest fac-tor is there used to be an assetlevel for medical assistance,but the limit was removed.

“Because everyone eligiblehas to have insurance, peoplewho applied on line, thinkingthey would purchase insur-ance on the exchange, foundout they were eligible for oneof these assistance pro-grams,” said Lind. “Theynever knew they were eligi-ble before.”

Under the Affordable CareAct everyone is required tohave a basic health care pro-gram. It is for people who fallthrough the cracks wherethey are not eligible for med-ical assistance, but are notable to afford to purchasehealth care on the exchange.

The state is planning toconvert MNCare to the basichealth care program in 2015,but they plan on continuing tocall it MNCare.

Challenging YearLind said that it was a real

challenge to plan ahead for2014 because SCHA did not

know what would be thechanges in enrollment.

“We had to use a numberof assumptions because therewere not good numbers outthere,” said Lind. “The bigfactor in planning for 2014 iswe don’t know what the newmembership is going to looklike. Some of them have beenpreviously insured, but thereare a number who had nothad access to health care.”

Positive Financial PictureLind said in 2013 SCHA

did a good job of managingthe medical care expenses asopposed to the revenue. Plus,in 2013 there were lowermedical expenses than antici-pated. SCHA ended the yearwith a net income of $7.2million.

“When you look at 2014,although we are expectingrevenue to go up, we also ex-pect claims cost will go upalong with it,” said Lind. “Ithelps that we had a couple ofyears of stabilization. Weended 2013 with $24 millionin capital and surplus. It posi-tions us to deal with all thechallenges that may be aheadof us.”

The organization hadworked hard the last fewyears to get back into a finan-cially stable position. SCHAhas been able to do somecommunity investment andre-investment into the organi-zation.

“We were able to maintainrates for our providers,” saidLind. “We were able to dosome increased payments to

When the dust cleared afterthe recent state legislativesession there were some billspassed that impact publichealth in Sibley County.

Vicki Stock, Public Healthand Human Services (PH/HS)Director, gave an update onthe session at the May 27meeting of the Sibley Countyboard of commissioners.

“Eliminating E-cigs was abig thing for public health,”said Stock. “Leadership in theHouse was behind it, butthere were not enough votesto pass the full bill. We wereable to get some thingsthrough. E-Cigs are limited incertain places like publicschools and hospitals. Thatmay come back again to getthe ban expanded.”

The medical marijuana bill

did not pass all the way, re-ported Stock. Basically, about5,000 children in Minnesotawho have severe health situa-tions will be able to benefit.The law goes into effect Julyof 2015.

The people who are notable to benefit from medicalmarijuana are those withchronic pain and those suffer-ing from post traumatic stressdisorder.

Another area that was ap-proved was smoke-free fosterhomes. There was concernhow this would impact thenumber of foster homes.After studies it was deter-mined it probably wouldn’thave an impact becausesmokers in foster homes al-ready choose to smoke out-side their homes.

Stock noted that grants formental health programs were

increased. She added it is sadto say the county is seeingmore children with mentalhealth issues.

“This grant allows the kidsto be seen in school whenthey are having a crisis,” saidStock. “They get the counsel-ing right there. We have seensome very positive results inthe GFW schools.”

Medical assistance eligibil-ity for hospitalized jail in-mates also passed in the leg-islature. Stock said this couldsave the county some dollars.

The state WIC program re-ceived an increase of $200per month, also saving thecounty some costs.

Other BusinessThe lists of Sibley County

employees coming and goinghas been growing in recentmonths, primarily in Public

Health and Human Services.Several resignations were

reported at the May 27 coun-ty board meeting. Plus, Stockintroduced new staff mem-bers.

Keri Butzer is a new familyfacilitator. Lori Jacobus is aneligibility financial worker.Rachael Joerg was hired as adisability social worker. Elis-abeth Aiken is a new eligibili-ty case management worker.

Resignations reported in-cluded Jacob Hanson as cor-rectional officer, Melissa Ko-ford as a PH/HS eligibilityworker, Kris Swenson as aPH/HS chemical dependencyworker and Linda Gerholtz asa license center technician.

Stock said there are twonew resignations coming.

the services the counties areproviding for us. We had notdone rate increases for thoseservices for a number ofyears. We were able to pay offtwo departing counties earlyand will save a significantamount in interest charges thenext two years.”

Plus, the surplus will allowSCHA to invest in its owntechnology, such as upgradingthe call center. The exchangeof data with health care

providers will be done in amore timely matter.

New Plan For Future

Finally, Lind told the boardthat she is talking withPrimeWest, a similar organi-zation, about how they can dothis together. Information isbeing gathered as this is in theearly exploration stage to seeif it is feasible.

“We are looking at bringing

counties together so youwould have a larger pool tospread out the risk in order tobe more cost effective,” addedLind. “If so, it would comeback to the county boards forapproval. In 2015-16 wewould seek to see what a planwould look like and possiblystart it in 1-1-2017. It willtake a significant amount ofwork to pull it all together.”

OpinionsSE Task Force finalizes

facility recommendationfor SE School Board

Our View: Taxpayers are encouraged to be open minded and study the facts

Letter To The Editor

Guest Column

The Sibley East Task Force, which was assembled to evaluate andmake recommendations to the School Board on the district facilities,completed its work during a meeting in Arlington on Tuesday night,June 3.

The recommendation calls for the construction of a new PreK-5 orPreK-6 building in Gaylord and the renovation of the existing build-ing in Arlington into a Grade 6-12 or 7-12 school. The estimated costis around $42 million.

Under the recommendation, the preferred site for the new elemen-tary school would be on approximately 20 acres owned by the City ofGaylord. It is located north of Highway 5 on the east edge of Gaylord.The final selection of the preferred site is contingent upon a landswap between the City of Gaylord and the Sibley East Public Schools.

Under the same recommendation, a new three-station gymnasiumwould be added onto the north end of the building in Arlington. In ad-dition, the 1936 portion of the building would be demolished. A com-mons area, classrooms and kitchen would be constructed on the northend of the building in Arlington.

There is a huge difference in this proposal compared to the newschool which was voted down in May of 2011. The task force is muchmore community driven than three years ago. The group has alsotaken into account the feedback from the last post-referendum survey.For example, a majority of people want a school building in theircommunity. In addition, a majority of people had issues with the landacquisition costs for the proposed PreK-12 school from a few yearsago.

The Task Force did not rush to a final recommendation. The dedi-cated group of citizens held eight meetings and studied anywherefrom 15 to 18 options. In the end, Task Force members believe this isthe recommendation that meets the educational needs of students inthe school district in the most financially feasible way possible. Theyalso believe it is a plan that voters will find acceptable.

Some people will no doubt be quick to criticize the recommenda-tion and its estimated cost. Rumors about misfacts will begin to circu-late. However, that does not solve the issue. Something needs to bedone about the facilities at the Sibley East Public Schools.

The hope is that the taxpayers will be open minded, study the factsand make an informed choice on the referendum during early 2015.

In the meantime, kudos to the members of the Sibley East TaskForce. They have given up many free nights and devoted severalhours in their role and task to arrive at a final recommendation. Thankyou for your efforts!

By Lee H. HamiltonIt’s depressing to read poll after

poll highlighting Americans’ utterdisdain for Congress. But it’s my en-counters with ordinary citizens atpublic meetings or in casual conver-sation that really bring me up short.In angry diatribes or in resignedcomments, people make clear theirdwindling confidence in both politi-cians and the institution itself.

With all Congress’s imperfections— its partisanship, brinksmanship,and exasperating inability to legis-late – it’s not hard to understand thisloss of faith. Yet as people vent theirfrustration, I hear something else aswell. It is a search for hope. Theyask, almost desperately sometimes,about grounds for renewed hope inour system. Here’s why I’m confi-dent that we can do better.

Let’s start with a point that shouldbe obvious, but that people rarelynotice: Our expectations are toohigh. In part, this is our elected offi-cials’ fault: they over-promise andunder-perform. They set the bar high— promising strong leadership, afirm hand on the legislative tiller,and great policy accomplishments— then usually fail to clear it.

Which should come as no sur-prise. Congress is not built for effi-ciency or speediness. On almostevery issue, progress comes in in-crements. The future of the Ameri-can health care system may appearto hang on the debate raging thesedays about the Affordable Care Act,but this is just the latest installmentof a long-running fight that beganeven before the creation of Medicareand Medicaid almost five decades

ago.Congress deals with complex is-

sues over many years and, some-times, dozens of pieces of legisla-tion. Focusing on any one momentin our legislative history is to missthe slow but undeniable advance ofprogress on Capitol Hill.

I also tend to be more patient withcongressional leaders than manypeople who share their frustrationswith me. Our political leaders con-front a terribly difficult political en-vironment: the country is bothdeeply and evenly divided alongpartisan and ideological lines. Get-ting 218 votes in the House and 60votes in the Senate can be a punish-ing task. It takes skill, competence,and a great deal of passion to makeprogress in this kind of environment— especially when those in Con-gress who are dedicated to finding away forward have to face colleagueswho do not appear to want the sys-tem to work.

This brings me to a third point. If50 years of watching Congressclosely have taught me anything, it’sto wait until the end of a congres-sional session to see what membersactually accomplish. Despite all thebickering, roadblocks, delays, andgrandstanding, Congress can oftenpass significant legislation by theend of a session, even if it can’t doeverything we expect of it.

And members of Congress aregood politicians. Most try hard tounderstand what the people want,and try to bring about meaningfulchange, at least within their ideolog-ical framework. It may take a while,but Congress in the end responds to

public sentiment. That is why it willpass the government’s basic fundingbills this year, having learned fromthe public outrage over last year’sgovernment shutdown.

Finally, Congress has proven overits long history that even in the mostdifficult circumstances it can be as-toundingly productive. The veryfirst Congress, meeting at a time ofenormous political uncertainty andfinancial trouble, was able to firmup the new government’s structureand set the course for the nation’sfuture.

At one of the darkest times in ourrecent history, during the height ofthe Watergate scandal — when ten-sions between Congress and theWhite House and between Democ-rats and Republicans were no lesspointed than they are now — Con-gress and President Nixon were stillable to collaborate on the FederalAid Highway Act, the Trans-AlaskaPipeline Authorization, the Endan-gered Species Act, the Legal Servic-es Corporation Act, an overhaul ofthe farm subsidy program, and anincrease in the minimum wage.

Congress often has risen aboveperiods of great contention. It pos-sesses a resilience that is obviousfrom the perspective of decades.Building on that search for hope inour system, and on the long histori-cal record, Americans have goodreason to believe that Congress canand will do better.

Lee Hamilton is Director of theCenter on Congress at Indiana Uni-versity. He was a member of theU.S. House of Representatives for34 years.

Why I still have faith in Congress

To The Editor,Chances are you have noticed

extra law enforcement on our roadsand “Click It or Ticket” messages onTV and radio. The effort and themessages certainly raise awarenessabout seatbelts and their use, butthere is a deeper reason for the cam-paign. Quite simply, there are far toomany preventable fatalities and life-altering injuries occurring on Min-nesota roads.

In the past five years alone, 587people died and 9,739 were injuredas a result of not wearing seat belts– that’s more than 41 percent of allmotor vehicle occupant fatalities.

In my 32 years in law enforce-

ment, I heard the excuses:• “Not buckling up only affects

me.” Unfortunately, an unbelted mo-torist can be tossed around the vehi-cle, striking others. An unbelteddriver can fly out of reach of thesteering wheel and lose control ofthe vehicle. Crashes, deaths and in-juries attributed to unbelted mo-torists cost taxpayers millions ofdollars.

• “I’m a safe driver.” You may be,but what about other drivers whoshare the road with you? A seat beltkeeps you in the vehicle’s designedprotective space and allows for de-ployed air bags to work properly.

• “I don’t need to buckle up in the

back seat.” Not true. Minnesota’sseat belt law requires drivers andpassengers in all seating positions tobe buckled up or in the correct childrestraint.

Behind every statistic is a person.And every single person who hasdied on our roads has left behindloved ones. This is why we are com-mitted to doing all we can to preventneedless deaths on our roadways.

Buckle up – it’s the law and it’syour best defense in case of a crash.

Mona DohmanCommissioner

Minnesota Department of Public Safety

Buckle up, it’s the law and your best defense

The Minnesota Departmentof Transportation (MnDOT)is deploying Rural Intersec-tion Conflict Warning Sys-tems (RICWS) at rural inter-sections across the statewhich use technology onsigns to give motorists real-time warning about oncomingtraffic, also referred to as col-lision avoidance systems.These signs warn motoristswith sensors and flashinglights that are expected to re-duce fatal and injury crashesat higher risk intersections.

Throughout MnDOT Dis-trict 8, motorists will seethese systems being placed atthe following intersections,beginning Thursday, June 5 atHighway 23 and Lyon Coun-ty Road 30 in Marshall andthe following week at High-ways 212 and 22 near Glen-coe.

Rural intersections can behigher risk for a number ofreasons, including: at grade,higher speeds, driver compla-

cency with lower volumes oftraffic, and longer distancesthat emergency medical andtrauma teams travel to trans-port victims.

According to MinnesotaCrash Facts, fatal crashestend to occur on roads inrural areas with higher speedsand with non-interstate de-signs (separation between op-posing lanes and grade sepa-rated intersections, etc.) In2011, 225 crashes, or 67 per-cent, of all fatal crashes oc-curred in rural areas withpopulations of less than 5,000people.

“To help combat rural in-tersection crashes, RICWSsystems will provide mo-torists with better informa-tion , or warning, so motoristscan change driving behaviorbefore a crash occurs”, notesRyan Barney, District 8 Traf-fic Engineer.

The proposed dynamicwarning signs with flashingbeacons will advise drivers

on major roads with a mes-sage “Entering Traffic WhenFlashing.” Motorists onminor roads will see flashingbeacons and the message“Traffic Approaching WhenFlashing.” The RICWS sys-tems will be installed at 20rural intersections statewidewith another 30 planned overthe next two summers, for atotal of 50 systems with thisinitial deployment.

MnDOT is a partner withthe Minnesota Department ofPublic Safety and the Min-nesota Department of Healthin the Toward Zero Death ini-tiative (TZD), which inte-grates the use of education,engineering, enforcement,and emergency medical andtrauma services in communi-ties to reduce traffic fatalitiesand injuries on Minnesotaroads. It is the hope that thesesystems will continue us onour path towards that goal ofTowards Zero Deaths.

Last Day to Submit Comments: July 7, 2014

Description of Permitted Facility:

Five Star Dairy - Site is located at the SW ¼ of Section 24, Dryden Township, Sibley County, Min-nesota

Five Star Dairy LLC (Permittee) has applied for a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)/State Disposal System (SDS) Permit to expand and operate an existing feedlot located in the SW ¼ of Section 24, Dryden Township, Sibley County, Minnesota (Facility). The Facility currently has coverage under a NPDES/SDS permit that authorizes the Permittee to house, in total confi nement barns, 1,350 head (1,890 animal units (AU)) of mature dairy cows over 1,000 pounds, and 50 head (50 AU) of mature dairy cows under 1,000 pounds. Manure and process wastewater produced at the facility is stored within earthen lined liquid manure storage areas (LMSA) prior to land application to surrounding cropland. The Facility is currently permitted to house a total of 1,940 AU.

The Permittee is proposing to construct a feed storage area to store more than 1,000 tons of sweet corn silage as feedstock for the animals at the Facility. In conjunction, the Permittee is proposing to construct an additional earthen lined LMSA for storage of leachate and precipitation generated runoff from the existing and proposed feed storage areas. Finally, the Permittee is proposing to construct a permanent manure stockpile site with runoff directed to the proposed LMSA. No increase in animal number or animal units is proposed. The fi nal capacity of the Facility will remain unchanged at 1,940 AU.

The MPCA has tentatively decided to issue the NPDES/SDS Permit, described above, for a term of approximately fi ve years. A draft permit is available for review at the address listed below.

This report is being published in its entirety in the official City newspaper, the Arlington Enterprise, and is not being mailed directly toindividual customers. A complete copy may be obtained at the City Office, 204 Shamrock Drive, Arlington, MN 55307, weekdaysbetween the hours of 8 am and 5 pm or on the City’s website: www.arlingtonmn.com.

2013 DRINKING WATER REPORTThe City of Arlington is issuing the results of monitoring done on its drinking water for the period from January 1 to December 31,2013. The purpose of this report is to advance consumers’ understanding of drinking water and heighten awareness of the need toprotect precious water resources.

SOURCE OF WATER

The City of Arlington provides drinking water to its residents from a groundwater source: two wells ranging from 690 to 732 feetdeep, that draw water from the Eau Claire-Mt. Simon aquifer.

The Minnesota Department of Health has determined that the source(s) used to supply your drinking water is not particularly sus-ceptible to contamination. If you wish to obtain the entire source water assessment regarding your drinking water, please call 651-201-4700 or 1-800-818-9318 (and press 5) during normal business hours. Also, you can view i t on l ine atwww.health.state.mn.us/divs/eh/water/swp/swa.

Call Mike Barthel of PeopleService, Inc. at 507-964-2211, if you have questions about the City of Arlington drinking water or wouldlike information about opportunities for public participation in decisions that may affect the quality of the water.

RESULTS OF MONITORING

No contaminants were detected at levels that violated federal drinking water standards. However, some contaminants were detect-ed in trace amounts that were below legal limits. The table that follows shows the contaminants that were detected in trace amountslast year. (Some contaminants are sampled less frequently than once a year; as a result, not all contaminants were sampled for in2013. If any of these contaminants were detected the last time they were sampled for, they are included in the table along with thedate that the detection occurred.)

Key to abbreviations:

MCLG – Maximum Contaminant Level Goal: The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expect-ed risk to health. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety.

MCL – Maximum Contaminant Level: The highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close tothe MCLGs as feasible using the best available treatment technology.

MRDL – Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level.

MRDLG – Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level Goal.

AL – Action Level: The concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirement which a watersystem must follow.

90th Percentile Level – This is the value obtained after disregarding 10 percent of the samples taken that had the highest levels.(For example, in a situation in which 10 samples were taken, the 90th percentile level is determined by disregarding the highest re-sult, which represents 10 percent of the samples.) Note: In situations in which only 5 samples are taken, the average of the twowith the highest levels is taken to determine the 90th percentile level.

pCi/l – PicoCuries per liter (a measure of radioactivity).

ppm – Parts per million, which can also be expressed as milligrams per liter (mg/l).

ppb – Parts per billion, which can also be expressed as micrograms per liter ( g/l).

N/A – Not Applicable (does not apply).

*This is the value used to determine compliance with federal standards. It sometimes is the highest value detected and sometimesis an average of all the detected values. If it is an average, it may contain sampling results from the previous year.

****Highest and Lowest Monthly Average.*****Highest Quarterly Average.

If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead indrinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing. City of Arlington is re-sponsible for providing high quality drinking water, but cannot control the variety of materials used in plumbing components. Whenyour water has been sitting for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposure by flushing your tap for 30 seconds to2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to have your watertested. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from theSafe Drinking Water Hotline or at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.

Monitoring may have been done for additional contaminants that do not have MCLs established for them and are not required to bemonitored under the Safe Drinking Water Act. Results may be available by calling 651-201-4700 or 1-800-818-9318 during normalbusiness hours.

Compliance with National Primary Drinking Water Regulations

The sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells.As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals and, in some cases, ra-dioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity.

Contaminants that may be present in source water include:Microbial contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural

livestock operations, and wildlife.Inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals, which can be naturally occurring or result from urban stormwater runoff, indus-

trial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or farming.Pesticides and herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban stormwater runoff, and residential

uses.Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are by products of industrial processes

and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater runoff, and septic systems. Radioactive contaminants, which can be naturally occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining activities.

In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) prescribes regulations which limitthe amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. Food and Drug Administration regulations establish lim-its for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the same protection for public health.

Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. Thepresence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and po-tential health effects can be obtained by calling the Environmental Protection Agency’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1 800 426 4791.

Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-compromised personssuch as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS orother immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek adviceabout drinking water from their health care providers. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryp-tosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1 800 426 4791.

Water is a precious resource, please help conserve and prevent pollution by following these simple tips:**Check your water meter routinely to see if it is moving while there are no faucets open (no one is using water). If it is moving you

have a leak that needs to be fixed. All leaks should be fixed as soon as possible.**Water your lawn in the early morning or later evening to limit the amount of evaporation that occurs during the heat of the day.**When updating fixtures or appliances, please consider low flow types or Energy Star qualified models.**Additional conservation tips available through the Environmental Protection Agency’s website:

http://www.epa.gov/WaterSense/pubs/fixleak.html.**Pickup pet waste from your yard and while out walking.**Minimize use of fertilizers and pesticides.**Clean up chemical spills and fix fluids leaking from vehicles.**Don’t flush leftover medication down the toilet or drain.(Medications, in their original containers, are accepted {no questions asked} at the Sibley County Sheriff’s Office in Gaylord.)

Please discharge all sump pumps to the outside of your residence. Discharging to the sanitary sewer (down a floor drain)is illegal and it overwhelms the treatment plant.
