A Federal Power Commission (FPC) program allows Ohio businesses to go anywhere in the United States and find natural gas which can be put into pipelines for delivery to this state for their use. Heckman said only two Ohio companies have transported any gas under this FPC program.

"Transmission companies do not have a great desire to participate," he said. A spokesman for Columbia Columbia Gas of Ohio spokesman William Chaddock said his company has negotiated with other utilities, like East Ohio Gas, to lease storage facilities, but no deal has ever been made.

According to county public health nurse Patty Caudill, directives from the Ohio Dept. of Health have arrived lifting the ban on the flu shot program. The resumed program of inoculation will only be offered, however, to senior citizens and persons in the high risk health categories. Those categories include persons with chronic health problems such as heart disease, lung disease, renal (kidney) failure, and diabetes mellitus and other chronic metabolic disorders.

Any person age 60 or over will also be eligible to receive the vaccination. The vaccine to be used will protect against both A-Victoria flu and the swine flu. According to state health officials, "there is no proof of a cause and effect relationship" between the vaccine and Guillain-Barre syndrome, a rare disease which causes weakness and paralysis of limited duration and, in some instances, death. The risk of acquiring Guallain-Barre syndrome is one in every 100,000 doses administered. The risk of fatality, the officials add is one in a million.
