Luke Livingstone Macassey was born in Carickfergus in 1843. He studied engineering in England and Belfast before setting up as a Consulting Engineer in Rosemary Street in 1871.
During the nineteenth century the population of Belfast grew from 22,000 in 1807 to 270,000 in 1890. Such a leap in population created many problems, one of which was the increasing need for a reliable supply of water for domestic and industrial use. During the century there were several outbreaks of cholera and many deaths from typhoid.
In 1840 the Belfast and District Water Commissioners body was set up with the express purpose of ensuring such a supply. In 1874 they appointed Macassey as their consultant hydraulic engineer. He designed and built reservoirs above Carrickfergus and Lisburn which were sufficient for Belfast's needs until the 1890, when it became clear that drastic action was required.
In 1891 the Commissioners instructed Macassey to advise on the position. He investigated five possible sources of water supply and ruled out four of them, including Lough Neagh. He recommended that a virtually inexhaustible supply from the Mournes be implemented in two stages. Firstly, a pipeline supply directly from the Annalong and Kilkeel rivers followed by storage reservoirs to be built later. His proposals were accepted.
The pipeline began to deliver water to the Knockbracken reservoir in the 1905 and after a monumental struggle the Silent Valley reservoir was completed in 1933. Belfast has had a plentiful water supply ever since.
In the mid-1880 Maccassey became a Barrister with a large parliamentary practice in Westminster. At the same time he moved his practice to Chichester Street. He also authored three books, on law and water supply.
Macassey died after a short illness on 9 May 1908 at his home in Cadogan Park, Belfast. His professionalism and foresight has made an incalculable contribution to the development, prosperity and health of Belfast over the past one hundred years.

Soldiers of the Utah Guard’s 624th Engineers Return from Afghanistan
The approximately 140 soldiers of the Utah National Guard’s 624th Engineer Company, 1457th Engineer Battalion, return to Utah from their 12-month deployment to Afghanistan Thursday, April 25, via charter aircraft at the Utah Air National Guard Base in Salt Lake City.
The 624th is based in Springville, with detachments in Price and Vernal. Its mission in Afghanistan was to perform vertical construction (structures and buildings) in the U.S. Central Command area of operations in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.
Twenty-seven babies (25 single births and two sets of twins) were born to wives of 624th Soldiers during the unit’s deployment to Afghanistan. These 25 Soldiers (15 of whom are first-time fathers) will be seeing their infant children for the first time on Thursday.
Soldiers arrived from overseas at Fort Hood, Texas, earlier this month and have been undergoing demobilization processing.

REDCAR – PIER COMPANY ANNUAL MEETING
Accreditation the Redcar and Saltburn-by-the-Sea Gazette 30/03/1889.
REDCAR PIER COMPANY
" The annual meeting of the shareholders in the Redcar Pier Company (limited) took place on Thursday (28/03), at Redcar. Mr. William Lennard of Middlesbrough presided. There was a fair attendance.
The Secretary read the report which stated that the past year had been a fairly good one. Unfortunately a portion of the pier had given way, and acting on the recommendation of Mr. T. D. Ridley (engineer), the Directors had employed Messrs. Head Wrightson, & Co., Stockton, to repair the damage.
The retiring directors Messrs. H. Harrison and Wm. Weatherill were re-elected; and Surgeon Major Locke was also elected a director. Mr. T. Bland was re-elected auditor. A vote of thanks was unanimously passed to Mr. Coleman, who had been chairman of the company for several years, but had now resigned, for his services on behalf of the pier, and the great work had given in the management of it."

Founded by Thomas Ridley, the firm eventually became Ridley Shaw and Co. Ltd, the firm constructed at least six outside-cylinder 0-4-0STs between 1899-1913. Lowe suggested that these were probably not completely new. Fig. 463: Clarence (WN13/1899) illustrated at Kent Works.

Vigilant Guard, a United States Northern Command and National Guard Bureau-sponsored exercise program designed to improve emergency coordination, response and recovery management with federal, regional, local, civilian and military partners.
Regulators of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Los Angeles District's Arizona-Nevada Area Office performed wetland delineation on a portion of Granite Reef Recreation Area, in the Tonto National Forest near Mesa, Arizona, July 11.
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act describes wetlands as, "Areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or ground water at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions. Wetlands generally include swamps, marshes, bogs, and similar areas."
Much of what actually determines a wetland comes down to the soil characteristics; the texture, color and even its smell.
"We use a soil color book in our investigation," said Leanne Van Tuyl, regulatory project manager. "We dig samples at different locations in the study area to assess the soil. The color can establish whether or not it is indicative of a wetland."
Simply stated, wetlands are areas where frequent or the prolonged presence of water impacts what type of soil forms, what plants grow and even what wildlife inhabit the area.
"The Forest Service wants to remove the invasive species that block access to the Lower Salt River," said Van Tuyl. "My role as a Regulator is to help our partners find the balance between protection and enhancement of aquatic resources while allowing for reasonable development."
Removing invasive species would allow native vegetation to return while increasing recreational access along the river.
