Hagg Announces Retirement, Consultant Status

Longtime Times-Union newsman Norm Hagg is beginning a modified career change this week. A veteran of nearly 40 years with the newspaper, Hagg is relinquishing his posts of general manager and editor-in-chief for the more relaxed lifestyle of semi-retirement. Although day-to-day responsibilities and hours will be reduced, he plans to remain with the newspaper in a consulting capacity, handling some business responsibilities.Gary Gerard, while retaining the position of managing editor, will assume many of Hagg's prior duties. "Age and health issues bring about the realization that it's time to slow down and enjoy life," Hagg said."But staying with the newspaper part-time will still afford me the opportunity to do many of the things I have enjoyed so much over the years.I've always enjoyed people and I hope to maintain many of those contacts even with my reduced schedule.

Atwood Tire Pile Cleanup Begins

ATWOOD - By summer 2001, the 4.5 million waste tires at the G&M tire pile near Atwood are expected to be cleaned up. Wednesday, the cleanup of the tire pile began at the seven-acre site.The pile, which weighs approximately 57,700 tons, includes truck, automobile, farm implement and airplane tires. The contractor, TRI-Rinse Inc., from St.Louis, Mo., plans to shred the waste tires at the site and haul the material to area landfills.There, landfill operators will use it as alternative daily cover in their operations and as a substitute material for stone used for drainage in the bottom of new landfills. TRI-Rinse expects to shred about five truckloads of tires each day, Monday through Saturday. There are concerns about why the Indiana Department of Environmental Management chose TRI-Rinse instead of the Indiana companies that planned to recycle the waste tires.
