Waterfront development:

City may fill wastewater lagoon

BY CODY MANN cmann@countrymedia.net

The City of St. Helens is looking for ways to change its waterfront for the future. Among the possibilities, filling the wastewater treatment lagoon with sediment and soil dredged from the Portland Harbor Superfund site.

Having already acquired two project locations for the waterfront redevelopment plan – a pair of former Boise mill sites – city officials are also considering development plans for the site that is currently home to the City of St. Helens Wastewater Treatment Plant.

By purchasing the disused Boise Veneer Mill site next to the historic riverfront district and Boise White Paper Mill site connected to the veneer property, the city obtained more than 200 acres of waterfront property. The city plans to transform the area with a riverfront trail and boardwalk, create better connections with Highway 30, and is aiming to draw private investment and economic development.

City Administrator John Walsh said the development plans include evaluating the possibility of filling in the 40-acre wastewater lagoon at the treatment plant with sediment and soil from regional sources that would generate revenue for the city in the form of dumping fees. The move might bring in enough funding to allow for the city build a new wastewater treatment plant, thereby creating a developable space that could become prime waterfront real estate.

Walsh said the wastewater treatment plant is oversized for its current use without the input it once had from the paper mill, what was some 38-million gallons flowing through each day.

Without the mill, the flow is estimated around 2-3 million gallons per day.

With the ongoing efforts to redevelop the waterfront area near the wastewater treatment plant, considering its

consideration for use as filler. The material used to fill the lagoon could be brought from river dredging and cleanup projects such as the Portland Harbor Superfund Site, maintenance and widening projects in the Multnomah Channel, and other similar sources of sediment in the region. Soil would also come from regional cleanup sites such as commercial properties undergoing development. Sediment that is deemed

relocation certainly makes sense at least in terms of aesthetic appeal.

“Filling it in allows so much opportunity for more public improvements, public benefit,” Walsh said. “Connectivity, sports fields or more housing or more business – whatever you want to do there.”

Walsh said nonhazardous sediment and soil that is removed from cleanup sites is among the material under

hazardous must be transported to a designated facility such as the one in Arlington, Ore. “If it’s safe, this material potentially provides enough revenue to solve a lot of community problems,” Walsh said.

He added that the city was open to considering many different sources of filler material that would be “revenue positive.”

The Portland Harbor Superfund

site is a $746 million cleanup project overseen by the Environmental Protection Agency, targeting a section of the Willamette River where industrial use led to built-up contaminants. The proposed cleanup plan looks to combine dredging, capping and enhanced natural recovery during an initial seven-year period. ­­­­

Habitat plan has some neighbors up in arms Local law enforcement reacts to national police attacks

BY DON PATTERSON dpatterson@countrymedia.net

An Army Corps of Engineers and Bonneville Power Administration plan for major fish habitat restoration at the former Columbia Stock Ranch on Deer Island has a group of landowners concerned.

Many of the group own properties adjoining the proposed project or belong to the Deer Island Drainage Improvement District, which must give its approval for the project to proceed.

The project is expected to cost up to $15.1 million.

Objections to the project are numerous and varied. They range from the impact on landowners, costs to the drainage district, and preservation of historic structures. Some even question the effectiveness of the project at achieving its primary goal of enhancing fish habitat.

The clash of opinions was no more apparent than at a July 8 meeting with

landowners, where project managers heard multiple concerns from nearby landowners.

sociation’s Executive Director John Bishop said the attacks underscore the danger of the profession.

“The attacks are another reminder that we have a dangerous job,” he said.

Bishop said he hasn’t seen any major change of policy or new equipment added to law enforcement agencies in Oregon following the police attacks.

But he said there is more awareness among police officers and sheriff’s deputies of the danger they may face on each call for service.

“I am sure their supervisors are telling them to be more aware of what’s going on around them,” he said.

“Vigilance is always critical and not becoming lax and not becoming unaware of our surroundings is very important,” St. Helens Police Chief Terry Moss said.

Columbia County Undersheriff

BY JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net

Oregon law enforcement agencies are reacting with sadness to the recent police attacks in Dallas, Texas and across the nation.

The Oregon State Sheriff’s Association released a statement this week that reads in part: “These tragic events have deeply affected the law enforcement profession. All Oregon law enforcement officers took an oath to safeguard the citizens of the communities they serve. They are true professionals who will remain vigilant in keeping our communities and their fellow officers safe! We want to thank Oregonians for taking time to express their support for our brave police officers here and around the nation.”

Port requesting rezone of Hyde honored for former school building contributions to CZ trail The Port of St. Helens acquired the former Clatskanie Middle School in 2013 and hopes to see the building rezoned to drive economic development. The agency is focused on creating industrial and manufacturing familywage jobs.

Scott Jensen, planner for Port of St. Helens, said light manufacturing use or research and development use would be appropriate for the building’s location. There is a boardroom that could potentially host government or public meetings, and Jensen said the city might consider another space in the building for a backup emergency operations center.

Other possibilities have been discussed as well, but any plans would be contin-

Columbia County Commissioner Tony Hyde was honored recently for his years of service and dedication to the Crown Zellerbach trail. A grand opening ceremony for the converted logging road turned bike trail was held June 18. Instead of cutting a ribbon, Hyde cut a log stretched across a bridge to mark the opening.

A plaque commemorating Hyde’s contributions during the past 20 years was unveiled during the ceremony. The plaque is fixed to a large rock near a bridge that will be known as Tony’s Crossing. “I didn’t know they were going to do that,” Hyde said. “It feels really good.”

The trail was envisioned as a connection to the Banks-Vernonia trail and runs from Vernonia to Scappoose Bay. While officially open, there is still some final-phase work to be done to complete the trail. Hyde said there has been considerable effort put into addressing public concerns regarding the trail prior to its open.

Art project displays dog sculptures in St. Helens The people of St. Helens may be asking who let the dogs out?

Approximately 30 artistic plywood cutout dogs recently appeared in the Plaza in front of the Columbia County Courthouse in St Helens. The St. Helens Economic Development Corporation (SHEDCO), a volunteer organization, is displaying 30 artistic cutout dog sculptures along St. Helens’ historic commercial streets during the summer of 2016.

The dogs are currently on display at the courthouse plaza, they will be displayed

there for about a week before they are distributed throughout St Helens. Local artists and business owners painted dogs of Dog Walk. The Dog Walk project means to transform otherwise ordinary sidewalks into an interesting place for the community to visit and gather. The project encourages people to walk and use public space as well as to realize local talents and connect with local businesses.

The Dog Walk Project is partially supported by a grant from the Columbia County Cultural Coalition. SHEDCO

modeled Dog Walk after the Cow Parade. The Cow Parade is the largest and most successful public art event in the world. The first cow parade exhibit was in Chicago in 1999 and came to Portland in 2002. Visit www.cowparade.com to read more about the project, the 2015-16 Cow Parade is in Paris.

Businesses can sponsor the dogs to be displayed in front of their businesses by calling the SHEDCO main street coordinator, Anya Mocha at 503-366-8232, or Al Petersen at 503-366-3050.

gent on the rezone. Jensen said the water and sewer capacity in the building makes it a good location for certain businesses.

Jensen said rezoning the building was an important step in the process of attracting new businesses, adding that an anchor tenant with a significant commitment was another crucial aspect.

A strong core business (or businesses) would make it easier to open spaces to some smaller operations.

“We’ve talked about how to do a business incubator type of thing here,” Jensen said. “Clatskanie is just not big enough to do a traditional business incubator, but there’s things we might be able to do that would make it a little less risky for somebody to take

their good idea out of their garage and make a go of it.”

The choice to allow the rezone sits with the city council. They will consider the recommendation of the city planning commission and vote as to whether the building will be rezoned. The port is applying for a zone change while simultaneously requesting the light manufacturing use and research and development use.

For the neighbors, the rezone means a possible increase in traffic, though Jensen said a traffic study indicated the impact would be less than what occurred when the middle school was open. “We don’t want to do anything that would radically change the neighborhood,” he said.

of Local teen competes in national craftsmanship competition

Meet the new Dairy Princess Ambassador for Columbia County

Kiara is the daughter of John and Susie Single of Warren. John works at the Portland dairy processing plant for Kroger Foods.

Susie, a homemaker, also homeschools Kiara’s two sisters and her brother. Kiara is a junior at Concordia University in Portland majoring in elementary education.

During the month of May, Kiara traveled to Germany to learn about their educational system.

Kiara’s coronation in April was held at Sauvie Island Grange where the Hills Came Alive with the “Sound of Moosic.” An array of appetizers, desserts, ice cream sundaes and of course milk, was served by the Columbia County Dairy Women, (CCDW) who sponsor the DPA program and scholarships to graduating seniors.

Heidi Wismer, a former county and state Dairy Princess Ambassador, emceed the event. Guest judge David Wismer, a dairy farmer of Wismer Dairy in Gaston, Oregon, interviewed Kiara just before the event. She then presented a milk commercial and delivered a speech on “Milk: The Ultimate Replenishment Drink” to dairy dignitaries, visitors and visiting royalty. She was also asked an impromptu question about her favorite breed of Dairy Cow, to which she replied a Holstein. Her little sister even got into the act, answering an impromptu question of

her own on Dairy breeds.

Before the crowning moment, Lucy Kyle-Milward, outgoing Dairy Princess Ambassador, highlighted an eventful year and was presented scholarship awards graciously donated by area businesses and organizations. Lucy is currently a sophomore at Oregon State University majoring in business. Lucy then crowned Kiara as Columbia County Dairy Princess Ambassador 2016-2017.

Kiara’s yearlong reign takes her throughout Oregon and Columbia County to educate the public about the health benefits of dairy products, dairy farming and the dairy industry. Catch Kiara at the Columbia County Fair & Rodeo July 20-24, 2016 where she will present awards at the Dairy show; be at the Dairy Women’s Booth and around the Fair all week long watching her siblings show in 4H. She has a busy itinerary of farmers markets, state fair, parades, school visits and community events such as the Vernonia Friendship Jamboree the first weekend in August.

To request she attend a local event or dairy promotion, please contact Diane Larson at (503) 312-6130.

In January 2017, Kiara will represent Columbia County at the Oregon Dairy Princess Ambassador state contest held in Salem, Oregon.

Sass said 6,000 students and 4,000 advisers attended the event. Competitors in carpentry were given what Sass estimated was around $1,200 in quality tools, theirs to keep and use during the competition.

Competitors had 40 minutes to study the plans for their projects, during which time they were not allowed to use their phones or other devices. They are then given eight hours to complete their builds. Sass said he was given a Dutch hip roof (or Dutch gable) to build. The structure called for 5-foot, 10-inch walls and various rafters to be built. Builds are judged for quality and design, and students are watched for

organization skills, how they prioritize, and adherence to safety guidelines.

Sass said if he had the chance to do it again, he would focus more on double-checking all of his work as he progresses and pay closer attention to the plans for each step of the build. He plans to make another run at the competition in the coming year.

Finding the experience valuable, Sass said students who are interested in building should consult with Mauck about enrolling his courses, but sign up early he said – the classes fill up fast. “Everybody wants to be in woodshop classes,” Sass said.

School supplies donation drive launched

BY JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net

The United Way Columbia County Stuff The Bus campaign began July 11 and runs thought Aug. 11.

The project has been ongoing for the past 15 years and is designed to help collect school supplies for area children throughout Columbia County.

United Way of Columbia County Executive Director Kathye Beck said each year there continues to be an increasing need for the donated school supplies.

“We have so many families that are on minimum wage jobs or are at low income and have several children,” Beck said. “The cost of the supplies goes up each year and the student requirements also go up, so all of the expenses of going to school add up. If you are working a minimum wage job, and you have three or four children, it can be very expensive.”

Beck said without the donated school supplies,

many students would be at a disadvantage and won’t have what they need to be ready to learn.

“Teachers will take money out of their pockets to purchase school supplies,” she said. “Parents will be forced to make decisions about putting food on the table, providing shelter for their family and gas for their car to get to work. So the school supplies would fall by the wayside.”

Beck said it’s a matter of simple economics.

“If you have just so much money each month, you have to cut some place,” she said. “You can’t pay less for gas to get to and from work, or less for rent, or less for medical insurance. You aren’t going to pay less for your utilities. All those things that are fixed that you can’t change.”

Over the years, United Way sought grants to help fund the school supply donation drive.

“Several years ago we got grants and I was able

to leverage over $20,000 in school supplies,” Beck said, adding that restrictions for the grants has severely limited what cash is now available.

“Many of the places we got grants from now no longer consider school supplies as an education component,” Beck said. “In order to qualify for the grant money you need to offer a program that is focused on education and United Way does not run any programs.

We fund organizations that do programs.”

Over the last several years, United Way has depended on community donations of school supplies and cash to purchase the supplies. Beck estimated the value of the donations over the past 10 years to be at least $100,000.

Beck said Columbia County has been very supportive of the Stuff The Bus campaign.

“One advantage that we have is that we work with businesses throughout the community and we have volunteers, even ones

without children, that go to the sales at Office Depo, Office Max, and Wal Mart and pick up the maximum amount of school supplies at the discounted price.”

Beck said United Way also connects to a business overstock system allowing the agency to give extra help to local social service groups.

“Big companies donate the overstock,” she said.

“You can buy construction tools, toys, clothing and crafting items. It’s everything. We look for school JEREMY C. RUARK/The Chronicle supplies. We share a link Drop sites are set up across Columbia County to collect donated school supto the program for various plies for area children.

Wet weather accelerates tomato diseases, especially Late Blight. That disease knocked out most Columbia County tomatoes in the first two weeks of September about five years ago, just as the fruit was really starting to mature. Our unsettled weather pattern is still leaving us vulnerable to the same scenario.

Watch the weather forecasts carefully and if there is a predicted period of rain or mist, spray a copper fungicide on the foliage and fruit before the rains start.

Spray your potato vines as well. Make additional sprays as needed. The rain caused disease will take out some tomato varieties but the spraying clearly assists others to come through that wet patch. The rule with this disease and a copper treatment is that it has to be used before the disease gets rolling. Many copper products are considered to be acceptable in organic growing programs.

High 73°

We are continuing to have mostly cool nights.

Lots of tomato varieties don’t set fruit in cool temperatures. Flowers will form and then drop off.

Many heirloom varieties or hy-brids like Big Beef need

night temperatures above 60 degrees to reliably set

fruit. The Or-egon-bred varieties (Oregon Spring, Willamette, SiSantiam, letz, etc.) will set in cooler temperatures as will the Czech variety Stupice. We needed more of them in our tomato portfolio this year. The cooler weather

can also create strangely shaped fruit due to in-complete pollination.

So far, I have had few complaints to date about blossom end rot, probably due to the slow growth of the tomatoes. This nutritional disorder causes a brown patch on the bottom of the tomato. It starts with a shortage of calcium and is aggravated by rapid leaf/ fruit growth and inconsistent watering (and/or mole tunnels around the roots).

Heavy fruit ripening is just starting so the problem should be more common soon. Peppers are also prone to the disorder.

Finally, here is an answer to a question many had several years ago about “puffy” toma-toes. These were tomatoes with little weight and substance for their size. There are several factors that come into play. One cause can be cool temperatures that lead to poor seed count inside the fruit. That leads to little “gel” in the seed cavity and less moisture throughout the flesh. But cool temperatures weren’t a problem two years ago year. High temperatures were. And it turns out that temperatures above 75 degrees at night can do the same thing as cool temperatures and lower the internal seed count.

That is what I think happened during our extended heat wave in the 2009 summer (I feel better just thinking about it!) There is some evidence that high nitrogen, low potassium soil levels can make the problem worse. In addition, some breeding lines that were developed for stuffed tomatoes are more likely to show the problem.

near 100 degrees in south County) pushed fruit and other crops like lettuce to mature early. The recent cool weather slowed everything down. Corn is behind and so are tomatoes and peppers. Cab-bage and second lettuce and greens crops are doing well.

You might not to want to look too closely at some of the berries you are picking. The spotted wing drosophila (SWD) had a very good winter and as a result, females are laying abundant eggs in small fruit such as strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, and the black-berry types.

The eggs develop into tiny maggots. It is most disturbing when you start making jam and the surface of your mixture is wiggling. But just skim them off. For more information, go to the spotted wing drosophila website managed by OSU http://spottedwing.org/ .

The eggs generally are laid in the ripest fruit so spraying is complicated. There are some products with spinosad (organic forms are available) in them that have short spraying to picking intervals. Removing fallen fruit (often the birds will help) reduces the SWD population for next year.

Marijuana grow near Rainier schools approved by planning commission

BY CODY MANN cmann@countrymedia.net

The Columbia County Planning Commission has approved a proposed indoor marijuana growing operation near Rainier School District property.

At a public hearing held July 11, the commission heard comments from numerous individuals who opposed the grow site, and returned a somewhat divided vote to allow the business to move forward.

Commissioners Paula Lichatowich and Rod Lloyd vote in opposition to the marijuana grow site. Commissioners Linda Hooper, Claudia Frace, Bill DeJager and Alta Lynch voted to allow the business.

RAD Nursery Products LLC plans to use a 24,000 sq. ft. building to house an indoor marijuana farm. The building is located across the street from Hudson Parcher Park and close to Rainier’s school sports fields.

During the public comment portion of the hearing, Rainier School District Superintendent Michael Carter spoke out against the grow site. Carter was joined by a number of

church representatives and concerned citizens. Among the concerns voiced were worries about odors, security, traffic, and community (and student) impact as well as the general appearance of placing a pot farm near a school and park.

“Just because you have the right to build it doesn’t make it really right,” Carter said. He is concerned that being so close to the school, the business will send the wrong message. Carter also worries about potential problems at the grow site affecting students at the school.

Carter said he plans a two-pronged approach to appealing the decision, taking the argument to the county commissioners and to the county’s Land Development Services office.

Carter will take the news back to the Rainier’s school board meeting this month to ask for guidance on the issue.

“It was a tough hearing,” Carter said. “I was a little disappointed.”

The possibility of a recall vote for Measure 91 was raised several times by the public and was addressed by the planning commission briefly. Accord-

ing to the commission staff, if Measure 91 were taken off the books, businesses that had met the guidelines for licensing would be grandfathered in.

Raj Punjabi spoke for the business during the hearing. Punjabi is the president of RAD Nursery Products LLC and has 10 years of experience in the medical marijuana industry. He said new business would benefit the community with tax revenue and job creation, and that he has gone above and beyond in terms of regulations for the grow site.

Security at the business was questioned repeatedly during the hearing, and Punjabi said cameras would be installed throughout the grow operation to be monitored by state regulators.

At a meeting of the Rainier School Board, Punjabi and associate Dr. David Busch said security guards and fences would be installed to protect the business.

Punjabi said he felt the hearing went well overall.

“We clarified some questions for the board to make their decision in our favor,”

Punjabi said. “I believe the truth was heard and believe there was a lot of valid points that we answered.”

Sensing how things would play out, Punjabi said he came to speak alone at the hearing rather than bringing additional supporters.

Although he prepared for the hearing, he said there was some pressure at the event.

“They are my peers – they are part of my community – I don’t want to be known as the villain in the community,

I want to be known as a good guy,” Punjabi said.

Punjabi said he hopes to have the first plants growing in the next 30 days, as soon as he has the permits in hand.
