House passes bill to ban back to back food-garbage hauls
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Truckers would be banned from hauling loads of food and garbage back to back, under legislation the House passed overwhelmingly over Bush administration opposition.
The bill, approved 410-15 on Tuesday, directs the Department of Transportation to issue regulations banning refrigerated trucks, tank trucks and rail cars from alternating loads of food, ship supplies or compatible non-products' such as solid waste or chemicals.
"Backhauling is dangerous, disguising and legal." Rep. William Clinger, R-Pa., one of the measure's prime sponsors, said before the vote. "We have not eliminated this practice by publicity, which makes it terribly important that we pass this bill."
Alan I. Roberts, a hazardous materials specialist with the department, told a Senate panel three weeks ago that existing law "is adequate to regulate the handling and transportation of food."
The administration opposed the ban largely because of a provision that the Transportation Department assume enforcement responsibility.
"The administration has yet to see fit to correct these practices," Rep. Tom Luken, D-Ohio, said during debate on the bill. "Evidently the Department of Transportation thinks it is the problem of the Food and Drug Administration. The FDA thinks its a transportation problem. And the EPA, which has jurisdiction over solid waste, doesn't know what to think.
If a bill were approved, he said, lead responsibility would more properly rest with the agencies with food safety expertise — the Agriculture Department and the Food and Drug Administration.
these agencies to work together to stop these life-threatening practices," Luken said.
The legislation would also require that asbestos, infectious waste and other health-threatening items be shipped only in vehicles designated for that purpose.
"The bottom line is that Congress is going to have to direct
The bill now moves to the Senate, where several similar bills are pending.
The practice is known as backhauling because it often occurs after trucks haul food loads to the East. Rather than return to the Midwest empty, they carry garages to the South. August that he liked hauling garbage because it could not be harmed en route.
Concern about food-garbage hauls arose after the Centre Daily Times of State College, Pa., reported a year ago that refrigerated food-hauling trucks were being loaded with municipal solid waste.
The report led Congress to investigate a related practice last year: alternating hauls of chemicals with shipments of juice or edible oils. An Oregon trucker's shipment log released by a House panel included loads of cooking oil, wine, apple juice, fire retardant, marine lubricant and lime sulphur.
Several trucking groups have said that concern by food companies has pressured trucks into avoiding the practice. The government says it has yet to uncover any contamination due to backhauling.
But Clinger and Rep. Chris Smith, R-N-J., said that checks by their staffs have confirmed that backhailing is continuing.
Not voting were Reps. Doug Barnard, D-Ga., Jim Bates, D-Calif; Michael Biliraks, R-Fla; Harold E, Ford, D-Entn; Jim Leach, Riowa; Denny Smith, R-Ore, and Bob Stump, R-Ariz.
Research awards given to KU undergraduates
By Carol B. Shiney
Kensee staff writer
Elizabeth Smith, Haysville senior, wanted to know what effect television's occupational portrayals had on children's career goals.
So last fall, Smith began her study and applied for an Undergraduate Research Award.
Smith is one of 10 students who received an Undergraduate Research Award for Spring 1990. The College Honors Program conducts a competition for spring and summer awards.
Proposals for summer research awards should be submitted to Nunemaker Center; 1506 Engel Road, by April 9.
"The goal is to encourage students to pursue originally independent research, scholarship or artistic achievement in the field," shem, director of the Hopps Program.
Brehm said that recipients of the spring awards received $250 each
and that recipients of the summer awards received $1,000 each.
The summer awards are intended to help defray the cost of living, Brehm said. Students must spend a full-time on unit research projects.
Brehm said the General Research Fund financed the awards. The awards are available to all undergraduates in the University who are enrolled full-time during the semester of application and who intend to be enrolled full-time during the subsequent semester.
She said projects had been done in areas including engineering, arts and pharmacy. One student wrote a novel.
Brehm said undergraduate research was important because it was a more active, independent form of learning.
"At that point, the student stops being a sponge and becomes a generator of knowledge," she said.
Aspiring CPAs at KU may need more hours after 1996
By Sandra Moran Kansan staff writer
KU accounting majors may need more than an undergraduate degree if they want to take the CPA examination after 1986.
A national requirement to be instituted in April by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants will increase the number of credit hours students must complete before taking the Certified Public Accountant examination. This requirement applies to an accredited an added year of studies beyond an undergraduate degree for aspiring CPAs.
The Kansas Legislature is considering a bill that would meet this requirement sooner, said Bruce Bublitz, director of the KU accounting division. The requirement is in effect in eight states.
KU students now must complete 128 hours to earn an undergraduate degree and to be eligible to take the CPA exam. Bublit said. Under the

new requirement, students will have to take 22 credit hours beyond the undergraduate degree, for a total of 150 hours. before taking the exam.
A bill passed by the Kansas House of Representatives on Feb. 28 would have students begin preparation for the 150-hour requirement in 1992, making the class of 1997 the first to graduate under the five-year program.
Jan Vacek, public relations manager for the Kansas Society of Certified Public Accountants, said the bill passed in the Senate Committee on Governmental Organization on Monday and would go before the Senate floor soon.
Bubitz said that if the bill passed, many more students probably would choose to work toward a master's degree.
