<br />001 a 3 '! <br /> <br />The training part of the program covers two <br />semesters plus a summer training session in the field. <br />Courses are taught by University faculty with local <br />community and State representatives. The training <br />program is supported by a five. year $4 78,000 grant <br />from the National Institute of Mental Health (HEW). <br />The first community being served by this project is <br />Gillette, Wyoming. (See page 53.) <br /> <br />Contact: Dr, Julie (Marty) Uhlmann, Project <br />Director, Arts and Sciences #310, <br />University of Wyoming, Laramie, Wyoming <br />82071. (303) 766-6318 <br /> <br />Recruitment of Doctors: Sweetwater County. <br />Wyoming <br />One important way industry can help during a <br />boom is to provide help in areas that are not traditionally <br />the role of local government. The Southwest Wyom ing <br />Industrial Association is helping both Rock Springs <br />and Green River recruit doctors. The Green River <br />Chamber of Commerce has a $75,000 loan, guaran- <br />teed by SWIA, which is being used to set up an <br />internist in private practice and two general practi- <br />tioners provided by the National Health Service Corps <br />(see page 451. <br />A grant of $43,000 has been given to the Rock <br />Springs Health Maintenance Organization for the <br />expenses of recruiting. One additional doctor has <br />arrived, and a specialist is being sought. A $101,000 <br />loan guarantee is providing a modular clinic and <br />front-end money for the HMO. <br /> <br />Contact: Ernie Mecca, Executive Director, South- <br />west Wyoming Industrial Association, <br />638 Elias Avenue, Rock Springs, <br />Wyoming 82901. (307) 382.4190 <br /> <br />Parks at Project Sites; State of Maryland <br />In its program of acquiring sites for energy projects <br />(see page 10), the State of Maryland will often acquire <br />more land than is needed for just the facility itself. <br />For example, at Bainbridge, Maryland, the Power <br />Plant Siting Program is negotiating with the Federal <br />Government to obtain an unused military site. The <br />State will use part of the site for power plant purposes, <br />and share the remainder with the county for park/ <br />recreation and institutional uses. An industrial park <br />is possible, and a portion may be used for a new <br />sewage treatment plant. <br /> <br />Contact: Director, Power Plant Siting Program, <br />Department of Natural Resources, <br />State Office Building, Annapolis, Maryland <br />21401. (3011 267.1261 <br /> <br />Purchase State Police Services: Calvert County, <br />Maryland <br />Contracting with other governmental agencies for <br />temporary services is an established practice in some <br />States. This strategy of "renting" needed personnel <br />and facilities rather than purchasing them can be used <br />in any number of situations - e.g. police, schools, <br />building inspection. <br />Most of the workers at the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear <br />Power Plant continued to live In nearby metropolitan <br />areas and drive to the plant site. Traffic was a big <br />problem for Calvert County. The road to the site was <br />only two.lane and heavily congested at shift change. <br />In addition, all the extra people in the County added <br />to the pol ice service needs. <br />Knowing the traffic impacts would be temporary, <br />the County did not want to add people to its payroll <br />permanently. So it contracted to pay the State of <br />Maryland to assign three additional State troopers to <br />Calvert County. The county pays all the cost of these <br />extra officers, and the contract can be ended when the <br />construction phase is complete. <br /> <br />Contact: Jack Upton, Administrative Officer, <br />Calvert County Court House, Prince <br />Frederick. Maryland 20678. (301) <br />535.1600 <br /> <br />Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) <br />An HMO is set up as either a private or non-profit <br />corporation to offer pre-paid health care. A set monthly <br />fee provides every medical service needed. The HMO <br />emphasizes preventive medicine and does not require <br />hospitalization before it pays for physicians' services. <br />Sweetwater Health Services, Inc. has been set up by <br />local physicians to serve the critical medical needs of <br />the Rock Springs/Green River Area of Wyoming. It <br />has been aided by the Southwest Wyoming Industrial <br />Association. Energy companies could also aid the <br />creation of an HMO by endorsing it and offering it <br />as an alternative form of health insurance to workers <br />and their families. labor unions, as a source of medical <br />programs to their members, should be involved in plan- <br />ning and implementing health maintenance organization. <br />Federal assistance is available to help set up an <br />HMO. The program of the Health Services Adminis- <br />tration of HEW is described on page 41. <br /> <br />Fire Protect,on: Mobile Home Standards <br />The greatest pressures put on fire services will come <br />in three areas: <br /> <br />The same loss of personnel problem that police <br />services face; <br />scattering of housing, making response time longer; <br />- potential fire safety hazards tram mobile homes. <br /> <br />27 <br />
