SCC's march and SAFE's barbecue will serve as the preamble to tonight's public hearing on hog setbacks.
The planning commission's hearing on the Board of Supervisors' hog setback recommendations begins at 7 p.m. in the Conference Room at Mary Bethune Complex in Halifax.

Prior to the meeting, South Central Agriculturalists For a Safe Environment (SAFE) will hold a barbecue in one section of the Mary Bethune Complex parking lot. The public is invited.
Halifax Courthouse will serve as the 6 p.m. rallying point for Southside Concerned Citizens (SCC) prior to their march to Mary Bethune Complex for the public hearing.
Don Webb of the Alliance For Responsible Swine Industry will be the featured speaker at Southside Concerned Citizens' rally. The public is invited to hear the North Carolinian speak and to join the march.
SCC members are seeking a two mile setback from streams, property lines, churches and roads, citing odor problems produced by hog operations.

In a meeting last week, SAFE chairman Tucker Watkins said supervisors had been bombarded with innuendo, and given "parts of reports" and "misquotes" about the hog issue by opponents.
A large turnout is expected tonight as both SCC and SAFE members converge for the hearing.
Assistant county administrator Jerry Lovelace urged driver caution along the town's roads and at Mary Bethune's entrance and parking lot.
Following tonight's hearing, the planning commission may vote on its recommendations to the Board of Supervisors or postpone its decision until its July 29 meeting to allow commissioners time to evaluate information.
The following options are available as commission members consider a recommendation to the Board of Supervisors:
---The June 10 proposal developed by the Board of Supervisors with or without modification.
---The January proposal developed by the planning commission with or without some or all of the comments of the Agricultural Development Committee of April, or any other modification.
---Retain existing CAFO Ordinance as is or with modification.
---Develop a totally new proposal for Board of Supervisors' consideration.
The planning commission recommendation will officially be presented to supervisors at their August 2 meeting.
The planning commission's decision is an advisory recommendation to supervisors. The Board of Supervisors has final decision on the Ordinance.
The Board of Supervisors also will hold a hearing on the issue.

Those wishing to speak should register on the Sign in Sheet and note if they represent any agency or organization.
Each speaker is limited to a maximum of five minutes. Speakers should state their name, and who they are representing.
The time clock green light will be activated following speaker identification. With the yellow light, the speaker has 30 seconds remaining. The red light end the session.
If a planning commission members asks a question, the clock will be temporarily stopped until the question is answered.
All have one opportunity to speak with no rebuttal or follow-up comments after their original presentation.
Debate or discussion between or among speakers and audience members is not permitted in the meeting room.
Comments of a personal nature, personal attacks or any derogatory statement directed at any individual will not be permitted.
Speakers are requested by the commission to focus on addressing the specifics of the CAFO Ordinance amendments proposal.
State statutes and current local Zoning Ordinance permit confined animal feeding operations, and until either or both are significantly changed, such facilities may legally operate in Agricultural Districts of the county within a regulatory framework.
The purpose of the Ordinance is to provide that regulatory framework, explained Lovelace.
Those with written copies of a presentation, petitions or other documents which are distributed to Commission members must file a copy with staff in order to have it officially entered into the Hearing record.
After the public hearing is officially closed, no further public comment will be allowed.
The planning commission will then begin its deliberations.

After months of investigation, the Virginia State Police have charged two Halifax County residents in connection with three separate bombing cases.
According to reports, a 17-year-old Halifax boy will be charged with two May bomb incidents that caused thousands of dollars damage to a bridge and a telephone box in the Oak Level Community.
State Trooper C.M. Flemming said the first of the two explosions occurred on May 23, when an explosive device placed on Henrys Mill Bridge, resulting in an estimated $325 damage to the structure.
Three days later on May 26, an explosive device was placed and exploded in a telephone box at the intersection of Route 360 and Ashbury Church Road (Route 676), causing an estimated $4,500 in damages.
Flemming said the 17-year-old will be charged with manufacturing or possessing an explosive material, bombing a bridge, and destroying public property.
A second juvenile will also be charged in these cases, according to Flemming, who investigated these and another bombing incident that occurred March 15 in North Halifax, with Special Agent L.D. Bishop.
According to Flemming, on March 15, an explosive device was placed at a residence on Pumping Hill Road but did not explode or cause any damage.
Chad Montgomery, 23, of Volens, was arrested in this case and charged with felony manufacturing or possessing of an explosive and attempted bombing.
Flemming said Montgomery is currently free on bond.

The Halifax/South Boston Regional Narcotic Enforcement Task Force arrested two Nathalie men on federal drug charges Friday.
According to Task Force reports, Robert Graves, 55, of Kitty's Lane, and Jarrett Graves, 22, of Alchies Lane, were arrested on a Federal multi-count indictment for distribution of cocaine and conspiracy to distribute cocaine.
A press release from the Task Force Office indicated that the two men are the first arrested in the fourth conspiracy in the Cody/Volens area that the Task Force has presented to the U.S. Attorney's Office for prosecution this year.
These arrests came after a 16-month investigation in the Cody and Volens areas of Halifax County, and additional Federal indictments are anticipated for individuals allegedly involved in the organization at all levels from distribution to purchasers and users of illegal drugs.
"We would like to thank the concerned citizens who called with information involving this conspiracy. Your information and patience has greatly assisted the Task Force in making an impact in the community against illegal drug use," said Sgt. Richard S.B. Pulliam, Narcotics Task Force Coordinator.

South Boston Police are continuing to search for the culprits who attempted to rob Crestar Bank in Centerville early Saturday morning by exploding the bank's ATM machine.
Lt. R.D. Loftis said yesterday the culprits did not make off with any money but they did cause an estimated $35,000 to $40,000 in damage to the machine and the bank.
"They didn't get any bucks for the bang," Lt. Loftis said.
A small amount of money was destroyed in the robbery attempt, Loftis noted, but no money was stolen.
Lt. Loftis said police have determined that the culprits had used some form of explosive device in their attempt to get into the bank's ATM machine.
"There was some kind of explosive device used but we're not sure yet what type it was," the police investigator said.
"We collected evidence that has been taken to the (state) lab. They (lab technicians) should be able to tell us what kind of explosive was used."
Lt. Loftis said the culprits did not try to enter any other part of the bank.
South Boston Police are asking for the public's help in its investigation into the incident that occurred at 6:38 a.m. Saturday.
Anyone that may have seen anyone at the bank or heard anything at the Centerville branch of Crestar Bank near the time that the incident occurred is asked to contact police or call the local Crime Stoppers hotline.
Lt. Loftis said that the bank's alarm company contacted police and that Officers Gary Slaughter and Fletcher Daniel were the first to arrive at the scene.
There were some individuals in the vicinity who reported hearing a loud noise, the investigator said, but did not realize what it was at the time.
Virginia State Police were contacted and investigators, a bomb expert and personnel with a crime scene van were brought to the scene.
Spec. Agent Danny Beaman, a state police arson and bomb expert, Spec. Agent Larry Bishop who is also a bomb expert, and Spec. Agent Mike Brian who specializes in crime scene investigations and evidence collection joined Local police investigators.
Police investigators spent over nine hours at the scene Saturday combing the bank and the surrounding premises for evidence and clues.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) - The U.S. tobacco industry, looking to sales overseas to offset its many problems at home, is facing a battle with the World Health Organization over plans to enact a global tobacco control treaty by mid-2003.
The treaty could make doing business around the world more difficult for the cigarette makers, which see a vast anti-smoking advocates worried that American cigarette companies would offset its U.S. losses by putting more emphasis on overseas markets.
Despite protests from some lawmakers, last November's deal between the tobacco industry and the states included no restrictions on the cigarette companies' activities beyond U.S. borders. Critics said the industry had a fertile field for exploitation of nations where smoking rates are much higher than in the United States and where restrictions on tobacco products often are lax or non-existent.
Between 1989 and 1998, U.S. consumption dropped from 540 billion cigarettes annually to 470 billion - a 13 percent decline, according to estimates by the Tobacco Merchants Association, a non-profit, non-political industry group based in Princeton, N.J.
During the same period, worldwide consumption rose, from 4.6 trillion cigarettes to 4.76 trillion - a 3.2 percent increase, according to the association.
''We can reverse the trends of what is developing into a major pandemic,'' WHO Director General Gro Harlem Brundtland told a Berlin conference in May, according to published reports.
The Norwegian diplomat and former prime minister, who made a mark by her work on worldwide environmental problems that led to the first Earth Summit in Brazil in 1992, is now making tobacco use her prime target.
''In this century - a century of astounding public health gains - tobacco control stands out in most countries as an appalling failure,'' she said at the Berlin meeting. ''Too few resources have been committed; too often national governments have chosen soft options.''
The tobacco industry is not happy with the WHO's attack on its products.
Martin Broughton, chairman of British American Tobacco, which owns Louisville-based Brown & Williamson Tobacco Corp., told shareholders in April that the WHO was attempting to impose western anti-smoking prejudices on countries where greater health concerns are malnutrition and AIDS.
''The WHO seems to have been hijacked by zealots in its desire to set itself up as some sort of super-nanny,'' he said.
B.A.T is the third largest cigarette company in the world, behind Philip Morris and the China National Tobacco Corp. The Chinese company accounts for about one-fourth of all cigarettes produced worldwide, while B.A.T and Philip Morris each account for the production of better than 1 in 10 of the world's cigarettes.
Broughton said that the WHO's treaty effort amounted to overkill and that the main concern was smoking by children, which can be dealt with by local laws.
The Smoking Control Advocacy Resource Center, a Washington-based group, said the WHO's move to negotiate a worldwide treaty ''has the potential to have an historical impact on global tobacco control and public health.''
The WHO is getting added ammunition from a traditionally conservative institution, the World Bank, which issued a report in May urging nations to boost taxes on tobacco to discourage its use.

With tobacco's future on shaky ground, Halifax County agricultural leaders are searching for the best ways to manage and market the county's natural resources.
Thursday evening the Halifax County Agriculture Committee met to discuss the arrival of a new extension agent specializing in forestry, and the job description for an agricultural development agent.
Dan Goerlich, the new district forestry extension agent will arrive in early August, according to Halifax County Extension Agent Larry McPeters, and while he will be based in the Halifax office, he will serve 21 counties.
A graduate of Virginia Polytechnic Institue with a Masters in Forestry, Goerlich will concentrate on working with local timber industries, wood cutters, saw millers and land owners with timber tracts concerning management practices, new timber species, and other related matters.
"We are very pleased. This is a very unique position, and will be funded through the state. The School of Forestry at Va. Tech and the Va. Cooperative Extension are partners in his salary, so this will not require any local money," McPeters said.
According to McPeters, the need for this sort of service was recognized about six years ago when the pressure on the local and regional timber resources increased with the number of OSB manufacturing plants in the area.
"Timber consumes about 60 percent of our county, and this man can help us manage this land, as we recognized the need to maintain our timber resources," McPeters said. "Now there will be someone in an educational position to help people who want to manage their timber. He will be doing close work with Va. Tech and the Virginia Division of Forestry, and will have those resources to provide people with the newest developments in seedlings, pesticides, etc."
Goerlich is scheduled to arrive the first week of August and will probably begin work August 13.
At the same time, the search is nearly on for a county agricultural development agent.
Thursday, Agricultural Committee members sat down to fine tune the job description for the person who they hope will guide Halifax County's farmers into a bright and profitable future.
After voting in favor of this position last month, the Halifax County Board of Supervisors appropriated $70,000 that will be used to finance the office space and equipment, support personnel, provide an expense/travel budget, and pay the salary.
Committee Chairman Tom West said this money will come out of the general fund, and will perhaps be reimbursed by tobacco money designated for community redevelopment.
According to the job description committee members agreed to put before the Board of Supervisors for approval this month, this position will require the ability to "search out proposed markets and industry locations that would promote the agriculture industry, enhance by increasing the economic viability of farming, and expand the agricultural base in Halifax County."
But while the Ag Committee and Board of Supervisors voted in favor of creating this position, there were some people who were skeptical after the past failed attempt to establish a farmers co-op with broccoli and cantaloupe.
But other committee members argued that one of the main reasons the attempted co-op fell flat and did not maintain its support was that tobacco took a major upward swing at that time, distracting otherwise supportive parties.
Now that tobacco is back on a downward spiral, farmers will be forced to consider alternative crops, farming practices and markets if they hope to survive and preserve their farms.
"We need to start somewhere, and the individual hired to this position will be a key to success," McPeters said.
Essential functions and tasks that will include promoting Halifax County agricultural products and analyzing markets to find the best or create new market options, assisting the Ag Committee Policy and Procedure Sub-committee in developing a comprehensive plan, write and seek grant money, coordinate any tobacco money, and encourage and assist in the promotion, expansion and diversification of agriculture in Halifax County.
"We must keep farms in the farmers' hands, and to do that we must make it economically feasible for the farmer to continue," said West. "This person will not be hired to teach production, but to find markets and outlets for this county."
McPeters concurred, saying, "This new guy will concentrate on marketing, because with the loss of the livestock market and three tobacco warehouses, that is our weak link. This will be similar to what the Industrial Development Authority (IDA) does, but focusing on agriculture."

A Nathalie woman died Wednesday during a freak traffic accident in South Boston.
Elizabeth O. Younger, 82, of Cody Road, Nathalie, was found lying on the sidewalk just outside of Cary's Electronics, after her car rolled down the hill on Third Street and crashed through the business's front window.
Investigating South Boston Police Officer W.E. Fallen said Younger had parked her car on Third Street around 7:45 p.m., but realized it was not secured and had attempted to get inside the 1992 Ford two-door to stop it.
A witness said she saw Younger as she attempted to stop the car's progress down the hill leading to Wilborn Avenue, and that the vehicle was weaving back and forth across the roadway.
Fallen's report indicated that Younger never regained control of the vehicle, which rolled down the hill, across Wilborn Avenue, crashed through the large window of Cary's Electronics and come to rest completely inside the building.
Younger was apparently thrown from the vehicle when it jumped the curbing, reports stated.
Fallen estimated the building sustained $10,000 in damages.
In other accident reports:
One minor injury and an estimated $7,000 in damages resulted from an early Saturday afternoon crash in South Boston.
The 12:30 p.m. mishap at the intersection of Wilkerson Street and South Avenue involved a pickup truck driven by 34-year-old Kenneth W. Smith of 1421 Moore Street and a car driven by 46-year-old Sarah Z. Greenbacker of 1002 N. main Street.
A passenger in the truck driven by Smith, 56-year-old Alvin Levi Tucker, complained of pain following the mishap.
According to a report filed by Officer R.D. Edmonds, Smith was headed north on South Avenue and Greenbacker was headed east on Wilkerson Street when the accident occurred.
The officer's report stated Greenbacker failed to stop at a stop sign and collided with the vehicle driven by Smith.
Damage to the 1985 model foreign made pickup truck driven by Smith was estimated at $3,000.
An estimated $4,000 damage was done to the 1997 model foreign made car driven by Greenbacker.
Officer Edmonds charged Greenbacker with failure to yield the right of way.

A Virgilina man was killed in a horse back riding accident Sunday afternoon near his home.
Harry Womack, 52, apparently died of a broken neck after falling from his horse while riding with his wife, Connie, and their son-in-law Sunday shortly after 1 p.m., said David Pulliam, Chief of the Midway Volunteer Fire Department.
Pulliam said the call came in around 1:30 p.m. to respond to a riding accident that had occurred off of Hudson Road.
"There were three people riding along a farm road, and Womack's horse apparently stumbled and he fell off," Pulliam said. "They were pretty far from any phone, about two miles off the road, and one of the other riders rode on to the closest house to make the call."
Pulliam said rescue personnel road were able to reach the scene of the accident in about 10 minutes by riding four wheel drives. Womack was pronounced dead at the scene.

Final decisions will be made regarding the proposed zoning map for the Town of South Boston following a public hearing before the regular council meeting tonight at 7 p.m.
Last week member of the South Boston Planning Commission heard from several local residents who requested their zoning status be altered before the map was finalized.
Members voted unanimously to present all but one of these requests for council's approval tonight. None of the commission members would provide a second on Town Manager Ted Daniel's motion to recommend that the corner lot at North Main and Hamilton Boulevard be zoned for business like the adjoining lots rather than R-1 Residential, as it is now.
Dean Jones, the owner of this lot and the adjoining property that extends down to Virginia Power, is expected to petition council to change the zoning status on the corner lot from residential to business in order to proceed with a commercial project he has in mind for this property.
A number of area residents spoke in opposition to Jones' proposal, saying that the corner at Hamilton Boulevard and North Main Street was already too busy, and that a commercial project, such as a convenience store (although Jones has not released any specific details regarding the nature of the commercial project), would only cause problems and detract from the surrounding properties.
Before the regular meeting at 6:30 p.m., Chris Lumsden, Chairman of the Halifax Educational Foundation Board, will update Council on the CEC Expansion Project plans.
Other Council business will include:
· Two local citizens who contributed greatly to the community will be honored with resolutions.
Council is expected to pass a resolution honoring long-time Gazette-Virginian Managing and Sports Editor Hugh Moore, who recently retired, and a memorial resolution honoring South Boston Police Officer Ronald F. Clark.
· A public hearing regarding a request from Felton Bros. Transit Mix for a Special Use Permit to allow construction of a new ready mix concrete plant at 613 Railroad Avenue, adjacent to their current location.
This is a permitted use in an M-1 Industrial District by special use permit.
Felton Bros. propose to install a new, up-to-date concrete plant on the empty lot beside their existing plant to eventually replace the old facility.
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on this July 7 and recommended Council approve the special use permit.
· A public hearing will be held to consider approval of a land exchange between the Town of South Boston (Lot at 708 Edmunds Street) and the lot owned by Bobby and Judy Smith at 612 Prescott Street, where the house is built on top of the sewer manhole.
· Council is expected to approve a revised lease agreement with Adelphia Cable Communications for the lot fronting Hamilton Boulevard, which is currently being used to house the cable television tower.
The Current Issues Committee reviewed this lease and recommended it be adopted after several changes are incorporated.
· Council will consider a request from Frank Dance to cut the timber on the unopened but platted right-of-way known as "Treemont Street," north of Route 129 behind Centerville Dodge.
· Council will consider a request from the South Boston Historical Museum for the Town Finance Office to act as its fiscal agent for payroll purposes for the museum.

The results of the Standards of Learning Tests administered to local students this spring will be unveiled by school system officials at tonight's meeting of the Halifax County School Board.
Tonight's Halifax County School Board meeting will be held at 7 p.m.in the School Administration Conference Room on the first floor of the Mary M. Bethune Office Complex in Halifax.
The results of the Standards of Learning Tests are important in that they will show just how well Halifax County's students are beginning to measure up to new, tougher academic standards in English, Math, History, and Science.
While the results of the tests administered this past spring had no impact in terms of promotion requirements this year, that will change with the 1999-2000 school year that will start in September.
Last month the county school board adopted a multi-criteria promotion-retention policy for the 1999-2000 school year that includes the results of Standards of Learning Tests.
And, according to new state requirements, by the year 2004 students must pass Standards of Learning Tests in order to receive a high school diploma.
And, by the 2006-2007 school year, all schools in the state must achieve a 70 percent passing rate in each of the four core academic areas if they are to receive state accreditation.
In other words, at least 70 percent of the students at each school must pass the SOL tests in order for the school to receive state accreditation.
Schools that don't make the mark will remain "prvisionally accredited" as long as they are making improvement.
Only 39 schools across the state, 2.2 percent of the state's 1,813 public schools, acheived that mark when the first round of SOL Tests were given in the spring of 1998.
The unveiling of this year's SOL Test results will be the major highlight for what appears to be an otherwise light agenda for the school board.
Attendance, personnel, and financial reports are the only other items listed on tonight's agenda.

Halifax council officials will meet with county supervisors Tuesday with intentions of approving proposed boundary adjustments.
The proposed boundary meets the South Boston line in the Centerville area and includes Salishan and the Golf Course Road in an easterly direction.
Halifax Town Council members also plan to discuss town parking during the regularly July meeting, scheduled to begin at 7:30 p.m.
The parking lot behind Town Hall will also be discussed, as will proposed sidewalk improvements.
Also on the evening's agenda, comments will be heard concerning a walking tour of the historic Town of Halifax.
