ALLEN CHORMAN



ALLEN CHORMAN SPEAKS
AGRICURTURAL AERIAL SPRAY PILOT
LAMENTS URBAN SPRAW 1988



When Chorman takes off the Eagle Crest airport near Lewes, he is able
to view route 1 toward Rehoboth and all the new developments.
He knows by flying over them he is jeopardizing the people below as he
is flying low as Ag sprayer's generally do.

In 1988 he had to give up 5% of his business because of encroachment
of homes and businesses on once open farmland. In spite of his 23 year
record of no accidents he just can't risk it. Farmers in the Cape area
have to do without the service.

Agricultural aerial spraying is an essential service and rescue farmers
from disaster and it helps keep food prices down.

Chorman thinks county officials need to take a stand against development
as a native Sussex Countian and not blacktop nor cement over the lands
to create another Washington, DC or Philadelphia.
