Got Stormy Weather? No Problem
The Board of Supervisors will recognize Carl Bouchard of Fairfax for his years of service as the director of the Stormwater Planning Division of the Department of Public Works and Environmental Services. During Bouchard’s tenure, he led initiatives to guide the management of stormwater and additional environmental activities, secure dedicated funding to implement the county’s stormwater management program and increase resources for managing stormwater.

Child Passenger Safety Week
The Board of Supervisors will designate the week of Feb. 12-18, 2006, as Child Passenger Safety Week in Fairfax County. Child safety seats and seat belts are effective in preventing death and injury when correctly installed and used. All children under 13 years of age should ride in the back seat of a vehicle. It is important that a child be restrained properly for their size and age. A child under 4 feet 9 inches tall will need to be restrained in a booster seat to raise the child to the proper height in a car. Those who are 8 years old and older or taller than 4 feet 9 inches should be placed in safety belts in the back seat of a vehicle.

To request this information in an alternate format, call the Office of Public Affairs at 703-324-3187, TTY 711.
