The driver, Peter Vue (age 24) denied consent to search the vehicle and fled on foot when questioned further. He was not captured at that time. 227 pounds of marijuana were seized from the vehicle. Troopers suspect that Vue was travelling from California to the Saint Paul, Minnesota area. A warrant was issued for Vue’s arrest and he was later taken into custody in Ramsey County.

CCWD Moves Forward with $3.75 million Pretreatment Facility |
|
Posted by: thepinetree on 12/01/2017 07:28 AM
|
San Andreas, CA...On Tuesday November 21, the CCWD Board of Directors awarded a $3.4 million contract to R.E. Smith Construction of Newcastle to build the Jenny Lind Water Plant Pretreatment Project, which will help ensure safe, reliable water service to more than 10,000 people living in the greater Valley Springs area. In 2015, the devastating Butte Fire incinerated more than 52,000 acres of the Calaveras River Watershed, along with more than 900 structures. In the aftermath of the fire, ash and sediment began eroding from the denuded hillsides and are continuing to be washed into tributaries of the Calaveras River. After storms, the river looks like chocolate milk as it carries massive sediment loads into New Hogan Lake. The quality of water flowing into New Hogan Reservoir has been significantly degraded, and these negative impacts will continue to affect the river for decades to come. CCWD’s water treatment plant is just downstream from Hogan and provides safe drinking water for the residents of Jenny Lind, Rancho Calaveras, La Contenta and Gold Creek. The poor water quality has created major challenges and expenses for CCWD’s water treatment plant facility and has, at times, overwhelmed the plant’s existing filtration systems and rendered the plant inoperable at times during major storm events.

Rural Crimes PSA from Calaveras Sheriff's Office on Owner Applied Numbers |
|
Posted by: thepinetree on 11/28/2017 02:46 PM
|
San Andreas, CA...What is an Owner Applied Number and why do I need an OAN? Stolen vehicles are linked to their owners through the Department of Motor Vehicles. Stolen livestock can be traced through brands registered with the Bureau of Livestock identification. What about your farm machinery, supplies and personal property? Suppose you had a chain saw stolen from your shop. Law Enforcement Officers apprehended a suspect with a number of chain saws in his possession. Could you distinguish your chainsaw from those on hand? Could you expect to get yours back? Thanks to a nationally established system your property would be returned if it was marked with an Owner Applied Number.
