Poicy Change
Is Proposed
RALEIGH - The N. C.
Department of Tran
sportation (NCDOT) has
proposed a policy con
cerning the removal of
vegetation along the state
highway right of way.
Notices advertising the
location of facilities where
the entire policy could be
read and reviewed by in
terested persons have been
placed in major daily
newspapers across the
state.
“The policy itself is a two
pronged statement that
recognized both the
aesthetic and commercial
use of North Carolina’s
highways,” Secretary W. R.
“Bill” Roberson, Jr. said.
“We are encouraging
interested members of the
public to share their com
ments with us on this
proposal. After public
comments are examined,
the proposal will be sub
mitted to our Board of
Transportation for ap
proval,” the secretary said.
Copies of the policy are
available for viewing at
each of the 14 highway
division offices across the
state and in the Chief
Engineer’s office in
Raleigh. In Ahoskie the
number is 332-4021.
Written comments on the
policy should be sent to the
Chief Engineer’s Office,
NCDOT, P. 0. Box 25201,
Raleigh, N. C. 27611, no later
than November 27.
Foundation
Donates Van
It was a hardship. But they
had no choice. Fifteen
kidney patients from
Cleveland County had to
arrange transportation to
the Nalle Clinic in Lowell,
North Carolina, two or three
times a week. There they
underwent dialysis, a
process in which a machine
performs the job that
normal kidneys do,
cleansing the blood of im
purities. The four to six hour
process is‘vital to people
with kidney failure, without
it they would die.
Now that hardship is over.
Steve Metcalf, public in
formation chairman of the
National Kidney Foundation
of North Carolina, an
nounced that the Porter
Foundation of Cleveland
County has donated a nine
passenger 1981 Dodge van to
the Cleveland County
Chapter of the National
Kidney Foundation of North
Carolina to transport
patients to the dialysis
center.
“When the appeal for help
went out, it touched me and
I responded to it,” said Paul
Porter, President of the
Porter Foundation. The
Porter family has been
especially sensitive to the
needs of kidney patients
i ever since Porter’s youngest
sister, Mary Porter Halsart
died of kidney failure in
1954, at the age of 24
“I am happy that the
Porter Foundation is in a
position to do this,” he said.
“I hope it will mean alot to
the people who need it, and I
hope it will generate interest
in their needs.”
Margaret Ledford,
president of the local
chapter, notes that the
Porter donation satisfied the
patients’ greatest and most
immediate need, par
ticularly since Title XX
money that was used to help
pay transportation cost has
not been available as of
October' Ist due because of
federal cut backs. Fourteen
patients will be served by
the van.
Richard Moore, chairman
of the Patient Services
Committee for the statewide
organization, stated that
“the contribution by the
Porter Foundation fills an
urgent need by our
patients.” Moore added that
he is hopeful that more
private organizations will
help fill the void created by
cut backs in federal money.
