Into the Spotlight: Bringing Transparency, Consistency, and Efficiency to the Division of Appeals and Hearings

Currently, the Division of Appeals and Hearings of the South Carolina Department of Health and Human Services has no specific presence on the agency's website to provide information or to allow for the electronic submission of appeals. This project's focus was developing an online presence for the Division on SCDHHS' website. The page will make the Division's procedures publicly available to beneficiaries, providers, and agency program staff who attend hearings. Additionally, parties will have a secure online portal through which they can file appeals and upload supporting documentation, reducing the need to send appeals via first class mail. The online appeal portal will further the agency' s goal of reducing paper.

Improved cement block fish smoking kiln

The kiln described below is based on a portable sheet steel kiln designed by Beny in 1964. Improvement of quality of the final product, increased operating efficiency and reduction in firewood consumption were the reasons prompting the design. The design discussed was evolved by the author after a number of experimental prototypes were built, in order to reduce first cost and heat losses, both high with the all-steel kiln. Traditionally, a simple pit and table is used, around the shures of Lake Kyoga, for smoking fish.

Freshwater medusae in Lake Kyoga

Freshwater medusae have been observed in Lake Kyoga by several members of the Fisheries Department on a few isolated occasions over the past two years. Sightings have been made at Lwampanga at the western end of the lake, at Bukungu near the inlet of the River Nile into Lake Kyoga, and at Lalle, on the eastern extremity of the main lake. Most sightings have been made near the margin of the lake under very calm conditions. At Lalle and Lwampanga large numbers of medusae have been seen swimming near the surface; on these occasions, the medusae were pulsating regularly and maintained a position within a few inches of the surface. Apart from noting that sightings have occurred under calm conditions near the lake margin, no other observations to indicate when medusae are likely to be seen have been made. Most of the medusae are of similar size, the largest being 12 mm in diameter.
