Hernandez pleads not guilty to stabbing

By Diana Bosetti The Triplicate

Ramesis Hernandez pleaded not guilty last Friday to stabbing and firing three shots at an acquaintance in the 400 block of E. Hoover Street on Sept. 19.

Last week’s appearance in the Del Norte Superior Courtroom was Hernandez’s second appearance before Judge Robert Cochran. During the first appearance, Hernandez requested a public defender, with the intention that a plea could be entered

once representation was secured.

However, on Oct. 1, two public defenders who had received the case stated they were unable to take it on due to conflicts of interest. Attorney James Fallman, who was in the courtroom, stated he could take the case and after

talking briefly with Hernandez, a not guilty plea was entered.

A readiness hearing was scheduled for Oct. 4, and a preliminary hearing is scheduled for 9 a.m. on Oct. 9. Bail was also denied based on a previous no show by Hernandez.

“I have no trouble denying bail based on a previous failure to appear,” stated Cochran.

According to Chief Richard Griffin of the Crescent City Police Department, Hernandez had Please see STABBING, Page A3

Sex offenders a concern in Del Norte County

By Diana Bosetti The Triplicate

In a place where local police officers make the effort to handcuff rogue shopping carts to patrol cars to return them to grocery stores, it’s hard to imagine that what lies beneath the fog of this quaint shoreline town are some alarming sex offender statistics.

According to City-Data.com, for every 80 persons who live in Cres-

cent City, there is one sex offender.

That’s 88 registered sex offenders or 1.3% of the population.

That’s well above nearby Brookings, which is located in Curry County, Oregon. Brookings has a similar population size but has a ratio of one sex offender for every 3,284 people living in the community. Or in simpler terms, Brookings has two registered sex offenders.

In Humboldt County, Calif. -

where the towns of Fortuna and Eureka are located - the resident to sex offender ratios are 402 to 1, and 173 to 1, respectively.

On its website, City-Data. com states that it derives its information from official public records, but added this caveat: “It is possible that the information displayed here does not reflect the current residence or other information.”

Indeed, even the Megan

website, which is governed by the California Attorney General’s office, may be less than perfect.

California Penal Code 290, also known as Megan’s Law, states that any person convicted of certain sex crimes must register as a sex offender. That is to say that not all sex crimes require sex offender registration, and some require shorter registration

Granny flats are coming to Crescent City, to your neighborhood, and maybe even to your own backyard.

The Crescent City Planning Commission conducted its second of three workshop sessions last Thursday to consider the details of a proposed ordinance to regulate Accessory Dwelling Units, previously known as granny flats. The ordinance will greatly simplify the permitting process for construction of ADUs on existing single-family residential lots. Space permitting, the ordinance will allow multiple ADUs - in addition to the existing principal residence - on a single lot.

An ADU can take the form of an existing or newly built detached structure, an attached structure such as a room addition or converted garage, or as a separate dwelling unit created entirely within the existing footprint of the principal residence. The ADU can consist Please see GRANNY, Page A3

Accessory Dwelling Units: Many Questions, Few Answers

By Daniel J. Schmidt Special to the Triplicate

Crescent City needs more low and medium cost housing.

Just last year, modest single-family homes were on the market for $150,000 to $175,000. Comparable homes today often command prices of $225,000 and more. And these properties are quickly snatched up, often by out-oftown buyers.

Priced out of the home buying market, many local families are forced to compete for the limited supply of available and suitable rental housing.

There are 1,794 housing units within the city, 1,136 units are occupied by renters. Just onethird of Crescent City families reside in their own homes.

Blame the red-hot housing market, and the high cost of land, labor and building materials. Consider also the upfront costs and delays associated with obtaining building permits and utility connections.

Home builders can hardly keep up with the demand for more expensive, higher profit construction projects.

What can be done about it?

Council approves letter opposing vaccine mandates

Public Health Director Dr. Aaron Stutz provided a quick vaccine update prior to the discussion, saying he was encouraged by another one-point increase in vaccination rates in Del Norte County to about

Fire Prevention Week - Learn the sounds of fire safety This year’s Fire Prevention Week campaign, “Learn the Sounds of Fire Safety!” works to educate everyone about the different sounds the smoke and carbon monoxide alarms make.

Knowing what to do when an alarm sounds will keep you and your family safe. When an alarm makes noises – a beeping sound or a chirping sound – you must take action.

Is there a beep or a chirp coming out of your smoke or carbon monoxide alarm? What does it all mean? Knowing the difference can save you, your home and your family. Make sure everyone in the home understands the sounds of the smoke and carbon monoxide alarms and knows how to respond. Learn the sounds of your smoke and carbon monoxide alarms by checking the user guide or search the brand and model online What if someone in my home is deaf or hard of hearing?

There are smoke alarms and alert devices that alert people who are deaf or hard of hearing.

These devices include strobe lights that flash to alert people when the smoke alarm sounds.

Pillow or bed shakers designed to work with your smoke alarm also can be purchased and installed.

Every bedroom needs a working smoke alarm. Half of home fire deaths happen between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m., when most people are asleep. Install carbon monoxide alarms in a central location outside each separate sleeping area and on every level of your home. More than 150 people in the U.S. die every year from accidental non-fire related carbon monoxide poisoning.

Webinar looks at human impact on Oregon coastal landscapes Hilary Dorsey Country Media

An online panel discussion, hosted by Oregon Shores Conservation Coalition Thursday, Sept. 30, discussed human impact on Oregon coastal landscapes.

Moderators discussed how the coast has been transformed by human impact

over the course of history to present day.

William Robbins, a professor of history from Oregon State University, discussed how market-related values reshaped the ecology and landscape of the coastal environment. This began with the Europeans’ presence becoming dominant around 170 years ago.

“On the Oregon Coast especially, there is a plethora of language groups and tribal peoples,” Robbins said. “It’s that indigenous world that was relatively stable that was abruptly disrupted beginning in 1800 but especially in 1830s and 1840s.”

The reoccurring malaria epidemics, around 1830, were devastating to Native Americans along the lower Columbia River, in the Willamette Valley and in the villages on Oregon’s coastal estuaries, Robbins said.

Around 90 percent of the

indigenous population was killed from 1830 to 1833.

The Euro-Americans brought values of trade.

In the 1840s through the 1880s, systematic changes were brought to the valley and coastal regions. Euro-Americans realized the market value of fish and timber. This led to the development of the lumber business. Saw mills were established to capitalize on timber.

“Nothing was more disruptive to weaken systems in the coast range than logging,” Robbins

said. “This was especially true with the advances in technology.”

Robbins said the steam donkey, a steam-powered engine, quickened the pace of logging and increased production. He said this increased production escalated disturbances in coastal areas, including landslides and erosion. Estuaries filled over time for commercial development.

Scott Burns, professor of geology at Portland State University, discussed forestry practices and their impact on the slopes of the mountains and the sediment in the streams.

The coast is continuously moving from the Cascadia Subduction Zone, causing erosion, Burns

said. Landslide sediments go into the streams. Sediment from rivers will move back and forth between headlands.

Burns said there is extensive erosion because of logging. Now, forest practices say loggers cannot log areas that are highly prone to landslides.

Along the coastline, there is a better understanding of sediment movement.

As climate is warming with increased storms, there will be more landslides and sediment movement, Burns added. Congress passed the National Landslide Hazard Map and are commissioning all landslides to be mapped. With time, we will know what the problematic areas are.

of entirely new construction, or the upgrade and conversion of an existing structure to meet building code requirements.

The ADU can be placed on the residential lot so long as it meets the minimum property line setback requirements and does not exceed the maximum lot coverage area for the size and dimensions of the parcel. Incentives will be offered to decrease the time, complexity and cost of obtaining a building permit.

Why the Need for Accessory Dwelling Units?

Consideration of an ADU ordinance is in response to recent state legislation that requires all cities and counties within the state to increase the availability of very low,

low and moderate priced housing. A regional housing needs assessment has determined that Crescent City has an immediate need for 189 additional housing units to be completed by 2022. Currently, nearly two-thirds of Crescent City residences are occupied by renters.

Construction of low and moderate priced housing has come to a virtual standstill as developers have been struggling to keep up with demand for more profitable higher priced housing. The ADU law is intended to allow individual property owners the opportunity to create additional residential units without land acquisition costs. The property owners can rent their ADU to tenants, or perhaps downsize into the new ADUs themselves and make the

Dwelling From Page A1

governments solve the housing crisis at their own pace, the state of California has enacted new laws that supersede local building ordinances. These laws now allow individual property owners to build “granny flat-style” accessory dwelling units in their own backyards, units that can be occupied by anyone, not just Granny, to produce rental income.

Cities are now required to streamline and lower the cost of

existing primary residences available to renters.

The ADU law gives cities considerable latitude with respect to the ADUs built within the community. Among the considerations are size, lot coverage, parking and whether or not to require owner occupation of the ADU property. Waiver of utility connection fees are also under consideration.

ADU Size Consideration Minimum ADU sizes can range from 150 square feet for a “junior ADU” that might result from a garage conversion or room addition, to 800 square feet for a studio apartment, 850 square feet for a one-bedroom apartment, or 1,000 square feet for a two-bedroom apartment. Larger ADU sizes - 1,200 square feet or more - are also anticipated. One option

the building permit process, and to provide financial incentives in the form of water and sewer connection fee waivers or other concessions that may lower overall costs by $10,000 or more.

The new ADU law will make illegal garage conversions legal and allow single-family homes to be divided into two.

ADUs can range in size from 150 square feet to 1,200 square feet or more, depending upon lot size, setback limitations and the size of the existing primary residence. Two ADUs can be added

permits an ADU to be as large as 50 percent as the primary residence.

Lot Area Coverage The choices presented to the planning commission for lot coverage included the following: retaining the existing 50 percent to 65 percent building coverage limit of a lot, depending upon zoning; increasing the lot coverage area 10 percent to accommodate the ADU; or not count the additional building size toward the preexisting lot area coverage limitations.

Lot coverage is further influenced by a minimum lot size of 6,000 suqare feet.

The ADU law specifies that minimum side-yard setbacks shall be reduced from 5 feet to 4 feet. Rear yard setbacks might also be reduced to 4 feet.

Parking Requirements Several parking sce-

to a single lot, resulting in three dwellings on a lot that had been designed for just one.

The motive to generate rental income may inspire many individual property owners to take the ADU bait. But there is a hook. What may be good for opportunistic property owners may not be good for the rest of the neighborhood: What impact will the increased housing density have on our neighborhoods?

As backyards and garages disappear, where will children play,

narios were discussed by the planning commission.

Generally, a single-family home must have two off-street parking spaces.

State law does not allow the city to require additional parking for an ADU. Instead, the focus is upon replacing existing parking that is lost due to the construction of an ADU, such as when a garage or parking area is converted to an ADU. One option requires that each parking space that is lost must be replaced elsewhere on the property. Another option reduces that requirement to one replacement for every two parking spaces lost.

The third option does not require replacement of any lost parking.

Waiver of Permit Application and Utility Connection Fees.

State ADU law permits

and cars be parked?

What provisions will be made for increased traffic, noise, and other social impacts?

Will Crescent City be pushed further into a “city of renters?”

Will absentee corporate landlords replace individual owner-occupants?

Are San Francisco style housing goals a good fit for Crescent City?

What about the rights of those residents who like their neighborhood the way it is?

Changes are being forced upon Crescent City and through-

the city to waive the cost of ADU permit applications and connection fees to public utilities, such as water and utilities. These waivers, if granted, will save many thousands of dollars to homeowners who wish to build one or more ADUs on their property.

The planning commission reached an informal consensus on many of the considerations described above. Although no formal votes were taken by the commission during the workshop meeting, Director of Community Development Jon Olson was given guidance on what preferences to include on a proposed ordinance that will be brought back to the planning commission for further consideration at its next meeting on October 14, at 5:30 p.m.

out California. The planning commission has been conducting a series of workshops to address the state ADU mandates. The commission’s findings will be presented in the form of a proposed ordinance for adoption by the city council.

The final workshop session will be held October 14 at 5:30 p.m.

Public participation is encouraged.

periods than others.

It’s also the responsibility of sex offenders to register on the site every year within five days of their birthday, or whenever they move. But not every sex offender meets these requirements, resulting in an ominous red marker above their name.

The data, then, could be further skewed. For example, the Megan site pulls up six individuals within the immediate downtown area of Crescent City, each of whom is in “violation’ of the above-stated stipulations. So, it’s hard to know for sure if they still live in the area.

Regardless, whether perusing the City-Data or Megan platforms, one theme was consistent: Crescent City has more sex offenders in its jurisdiction than any other in the region.

“I would agree, our number is high,” said Crescent City Chief of Police Richard Griffin.

Griffin added that prior to joining the Crescent City Police Department in 2019, and while he was a detective for the Del Norte Sheriff’s Department, he had noticed this was an issue. At least anecdotally.

“I’ve always thought to myself that it was high, but I have not had a chance to look into the why,” Griffin said.

Some registered sex offenders, as part of their conditioned parole, are required to agree to life-long GPS (Global Positioning System) monitoring, as well as live a certain distance away from schools or parks.

been arguing about an alleged theft with the victim, became angry and stabbed the other individual in the shoulder, then ran outside.

The victim followed Hernandez outside, and that is when Hernandez allegedly fired three gunshots in his direction, hitting some brush in front of him.

Witnesses to the event corroborated the victim’s account of what occurred, according to Griffin.

Bob’s

The latter requirement is less common than it used to be due to constitutional limitations, and according to Griffin, none of the Crescent City residents listed on the Megan site are required to do so, though he did say one of the individuals is not allowed to possess a cell phone or peruse the internet.

City Manager Eric Wier, who has been working hard to clean up the town’s image not just because it’s his job, but as he pointed out - because he, too, is raising a family here - was curious about the reasons behind the numbers.

“It is a good question and data is one thing, but we have to get to the reasons behind the data and see what we can do to address what the cause is,” Wier said.

“It’s hard when you’re dealing with such a small population where a few of these numbers can really add up to a large percentage ratio,” Wier added.

“Because just like with any sort of statistics your sample size does matter.

Though the data is still very much concerning and something we should look into more.”

While the duo was equally stumped, Griffin pondered whether being a coastal community that people pass through may have something to do with it.

“We do have what appears to be a larger transient population,” Griffin said. “I’m not saying they are all sex offenders. Just that what comes through the area, some people stay because they like it.”

Griffin’s assumptions may be rooted in trends noticed elsewhere in the country, though the draw appears to be more about affordable real estate than a location’s aesthetics.

In a 2019 article in the Colorado Sun, Mary Evans, an associate professor of criminology and criminal justice at the University of Northern Colorado, not-

ed that unequal distribution of sex offenders is especially prevalent in low-income neighborhoods.

Crescent City trails behind its counterparts in that area too and has a poverty rate of nearly 27%. That’s almost 18% higher than Brookings and about 7% higher than Eureka.

However, just as sex offender numbers are approximations, persons who have committed sex crimes - particularly against children - that doesn’t automatically imply they are a danger to the community.

According to the California Attorney General’s Office website, over 90% of child victims know their offender, with almost half of the offenders being a family member. Of sexual assaults against people age 12 and over, approximately 80% of the victims know the offender, the site further states.

“But, we have to deal with it no matter what,” Griffin said.

Shortly after the alleged assault, Hernandez was found hiding in a residence in the 600 block of Macken Avenue, and with assistance from the Del Norte County Sheriff’s Office and the Yurok Tribal Police, a perimeter was set up and Hernandez was captured while he tried to flee again.

Two knives were found on Hernandez during a search after the arrest.

Later that day, CCPD officers served a search warrant where the incident took place. Live hand-

gun cartridges and spent casings consistent with the type of firearm allegedly used by Hernandez were located. However, the alleged firearm has not been

recovered.

Charges include assault with a firearm and assault with a deadly weapon (non-firearm) on a person.

The Triplicate researched and compared sex offender statistics in Del Norte and Humboldt Counties following the Sept. 22 arrest of Raymond Bocock.

Bocock lives just outside Crescent City but within Del Norte County, near Del Norte High School.

Bocock is facing multiple charges that include forcible rape and penetration with a foreign object of two females, including one victim who is currently 12 years old, and another who is now an adult but was under the age of 14 when the crimes allegedly occurred.

Bocock is being held on a $1 million bond and Public Defender Karen Olson was appointed by Judge Robert Cochran to represent him. On Oct. 1, Cochran approved two restraining orders for the al-

leged victims, and on Oct. 4, Bocock pled not guilty to all charges. The matter is slated for a readiness hearing on October 18, and a preliminary hearing on October 19.

The Triplicate sat down with Chief Griffin and City Manager Wier last week to discuss public safety and economic development, including adding officers and potentially a detective to the department, as well as business recruitment, redevelopment of the city’s downtown retail corridor, and housing needs. Stories about those conversations will occur in future issues of The Triplicate, including the addition of two new pickup trucks which will be used, albeit in small part, to deal with the shopping cart matter mentioned at the top of the story.

How the Covid IP-waiver could sabotage crucial cancer research

By Andrew Spiegel President Biden craves a cure for cancer. In a speech to Congress this spring, he vowed to “end cancer as we know it.”

And as vice president, he helped start the Cancer Moonshot initiative.

Yet by giving his backing to a global waiver of intellectual property rights for COVID-19 vaccines, President Biden may have endangered millions of Americans living with cancer.

The Biden administration has said that it would join a World Trade Organization move to suspend IP safeguards for the vaccines. Its intentions are no doubt sincere, founded in the belief that a waiver will help rid the world of Covid. Yet the setting aside of IP protections has consequences that the administration seems to have overlooked.

If adopted, the waiver won’t galvanize the supply of vaccines bound for the developing world - certainly not in the immediate term. What it will do is threaten scientific innovation that could lead to cures for cancer and other diseases.

I’ll explain why. Technically, the waiver supported by the United States would only apply to IP on COVID vaccines. So what has this got to do with cancer?

There are two consequences. First, intellectual property underpins scientists’ incentives to make discoveries. Without proprietary “armor” to protect research, rivals could blithely - and lawfully - use scientists’ know-how, data, or manufacturing processes.

Second, waiving IP on underlying vaccine technology has ramifications for drug innovation. Since the same technologies are used for potential treatments for other diseases, vaccine-makers would have to give up IP on those projects too.

Consider the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna vaccines. They use “mRNA” to promote an immune response to Covid-19, a technology that took decades to develop. With the successful rollout of mRNA

Covid-19 vaccines, researchers in the United States and Germany now hope they can use mRNA to fight other viruses. Moderna has active trials for mRNA vaccines for Zika, HIV and the flu.

Cancer doctors and patients pray that mRNA is the key to a cure. Moderna, in fact, has two mRNA vaccine candidates for cancer. Researchers hope that mRNA could instruct the body to combat cancerous tumors like it fights a virus.

With the IP waiver, Moderna’s mRNA technology could end up with rivals, leaving the company with greatly diminished incentives - and greatly diminished investment dollars - to continue with mRNA clinical trials, including ones for cancer.

Advanced drug innovation could come to a halt. What investor would fund biotech startups if copycats can swoop in?

This scenario is made especially distressing by the fact that the upsides of the IP waiver are negligible. Manufacturers need specialized facilities and hundreds of ingredients to make vaccines. Vaccine-makers have struck licensing deals to scale up production. Every facility on earth that can safely produce effective vaccines is already doing so. Getting rid of IP won’t make the scale-up go any faster. It could, however, unleash millions of shoddy copycats and event counterfeit vaccine doses.

President Biden has shown how he can help vaccinate the world without holding mRNA research hostage. For instance, he has already agreed to donate 580 million of the United States’ surplus vaccine doses to COVAX - a WHO, CEPI, and Gavi co-led initiative to distribute COVID-19 vaccines to developing countries.

With President Biden, the cancer community has an ally in the White House.

And yet, with the IP waiver, he’s undermining the only industry that may find a cure for cancer.

DEAR ABBY By Abigail Van Buren STEPMOM IRKED BY HUSBAND'S NICKNAMES FOR GROWN KIDS

DEAR ABBY: My husband and I have been happily married for 10 years.

This is a second marriage for both of us.

We don't have children together, but my husband has grown daughters in their 50s from a previous marriage. Generally, we have good relationships with each other.

My problem is, my husband still calls -- and refers to -- his daughters by their childhood nicknames, "Peanut" and "Poopsie." They reciprocate by calling him by silly names instead of "Dad" or "Father." Seeing these adult women reverting to childhood drives me up a wall. They talk and act like little girls and use baby talk with each other, too.

I have shared with my husband more than once that this "innocent" nickname game keeps his daughters stuck in old childhood patterns, while keeping other family members out of the conversation.

How would you suggest I handle this? -FEELING LIKE AN OUTSIDER DEAR "OUTSIDER": Because you have shared with your husband "more than once" that you feel sidelined when his daughters do this, and nothing has changed, try this: Arrange to visit with friends or schedule an activity you enjoy while your husband's "girls" visit their daddy. If you do, it may be less frustrating than trying to change them.

DEAR ABBY: My husband and I have been happily married (with some ups and downs) for 30 years. We are in our 50s and have two grown children. We enjoy an active love life except for one thing. He refuses to kiss me passionately before or during lovemaking. When I met him 35 years ago, he was the best kisser!

Kissing helps me to get in the mood, but he says we're "too old" for that.

I have talked to him about it, to no avail. My first thought was that my breath was bad, but he assured me it wasn't. Is this normal? Am I asking too much? When we're watching a movie together, I will say to him when the actors kiss, "They're doing it, why can't we?" and he rolls his eyes. Should I let this go, as it seems like such a small issue? -- KISSED OFF IN MONTANA DEAR KISSED OFF: Considerate couples who love each other want to give each other pleasure. That your husband would withhold something you have told him you need to enhance your intimacy is selfish. I do not think you should "let this go," because if you would write to me about it, it ISN'T a small issue. If he can't explain his change in behavior to you, he should explain it WITH you -- in the office of a marriage and family therapist.

DEAR ABBY: I have been married for 45 years, but the love of my life is now in a memory care facility because of Alzheimer's. We have always sent out greeting cards during the holidays. I'm now wondering how I should sign them this year -- with both our names as usual or just my own?

-- WONDERING IN SAN DIEGO DEAR WONDERING: I vote for sending the cards out with both of your names. There will come a time when you send them from just yourself, but until his passing, his name should be included. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

Please don’t pet the wildlife

By Kelsey Wellington “I can’t believe that person is getting that close.”

Just off the road stands a bull elk — a 700-pound animal with three-foot tall antlers — and a woman is standing not even four feet away from it. All it would take is for the elk to make one sudden swing of its head and the woman would be hospitalized.

“Here we go again,” I say, rolling my eyes. Then I hop out of the van, instructing my clients to wait here while I try to handle the situation.

I work as a privately contracted guide to lead visitors on wildlife and geology tours of Grand Teton and Yellowstone national parks. Leaning on my wildlife biology degree and six years of living in the Rocky Mountain West, I educate clients about the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. At 22 million acres, it’s the largest nearly intact temperate ecosystem on earth. Almost all plants and animals that existed prior to human presence in North America still exist here today. So people flock here from all over the world to see wildlife as it is truly meant to be — wild.

“Excuse me!” I shout from the roadside, trying to get the woman’s attention.

“Please back up!”

She doesn’t even flinch.

I try again. “Excuse me, woman in the white top and white hat! Please give this animal at least 75 feet of space!”

She still ignores me.

Although I do not have the authority that comes with being a park ranger, I do have George N. Wallace’s advice in his paper, Authority of the Resource. He says the average person can claim the power to confront someone whose behavior harms the environment or the public’s ability to pursue recreational activities in that environment. If, for example, you see someone approaching wildlife too closely, you can speak up.

Far too many times this summer, I’ve had to speak up. In May, Grand Teton National Park recorded

Kelsey Wellington over 360,000 visitors, a 30% increase from May 2019. In July, Yellowstone had over a million visitors, a record. There’s a rule of thumb: more people mean more opportunities for them to get into trouble with wildlife.

Because some of these visitors were traveling to wild places for the first time, things sometimes went south quickly. Yet most rule-breakers were lucky enough to walk away unscathed; few even recognized the danger they were in.

But it’s heartbreaking to watch elk or bears become agitated by human ignorance. It is even more heartbreaking to know that these instances will only increase as more people visit these national parks. Wildlife may change their behavior, heading farther into the backcountry and therefore farther from view.

I love my job. I love driving around these two magnificent national parks and watching animals live their lives every day.

Hearing the mating call of a bull elk echo through the valley at sunrise is nothing short of magical. Watching grizzly bears dig for food in preparation for hibernation never gets old.

Because these are experiences I want everyone to share, here are some tips for visitors: Know the wildlife-viewing regulations of the area you visit. National parks require you to stay 25 yards away from most wildlife and 100 yards away from predators.

Check relevant websites before you travel.

Follow the instructions of authority figures. Often, this will be a park or forest ranger stationed in wildlife hotspots.

Don’t block the road.

Please do not stop in the middle of the road! And turn your car off so everyone can enjoy the silence.

Book a wildlife-viewing tour. While no wildlife guide will ever guarantee an animal sighting, experts know their stuff and will keep you — and the animals — safe.

Carry binoculars. This is an incredible tool for viewing wildlife from a distance. I never leave home without my pair.

Become an authority for the resource. Speak up if you see someone breaking the rules, and don’t be discouraged if you get a nasty response. You have the right to protect everyone’s access to nature.

When I return to the van after the woman finally returned to her car, my clients immediately begin expressing their disbelief.

“I’ve heard stories and seen videos of people acting like that,” one woman says, “but to see it first-hand is something else entirely.”

“You’d think people would know better,” says another.

You’d think.

101-PUBLIC NOTICES

Contibuted photo

Gov. Gavin Newsom recently signed AB 1311, a bill that will address the shortage of recycling facilities, especially in rural areas.

Governor signs AB 1311: Provides new flexibility for recycling centers Gov. Gavin Newsom recently signed AB 1311 by Assemblymember Jim Wood (D-Santa Rosa), a bill that will address the shortage of recycling facilities, especially in rural areas.

For decades, California’s recycling program, in place since 1987, was one of the most successful in the country. Unfortunately drops in commodity prices and the system filling with mostly plastic that has no value, has led to the closing of more than 1,000 recycling centers in California since 2013, many in rural communities.

“Currently there are no certified redemption centers in Humboldt, Trinity, Sierra or Alpine county,” said Wood.

“Given the rural nature of these regions, it has become impossible and impractical for consumers to recover their California Refund Value (CRV) deposits. Something had to be done.”

The California Beverage Container Recycling and Litter Reduction Act contains specific guidelines and CalRecycle has not made any changes to accommodate challenges faced by rural communities.

Working closely with the Humboldt Waste Management Authority (HWMA), Wood drafted AB 1311 to address some of the most significant problems for rural redemption centers, including the lack of flexibility.

“I listened to the HWMA’s challenges and comments from the community, and looked for ways to change the system,” said Wood. I felt like David fighting Goliath, even when I was only asking for modest changes, like modifying the hours of operation, but eventually we made some progress.”

AB 1311 authorizes CalRecycle to allow certified recycling centers to operate on an alternative schedule, less than the currently required 30 hours per week, if it best serves the needs of the community and the goals of the program. It requires CalRecycle to develop a process that would allow recycling centers to apply for authorization to operate by appointment. It exempts dealers delivering empty beverage containers to a recycling center or processor from the daily load limits and authorizes the use of reverse vending machines and bag drop recycling centers, setting a 3-day standard for customers to receive payment of CRV without requiring full-time staffing.

“This is one piece of a very large puzzle, but for rural California, I believe the changes we were able to accomplish in AB 1311 will address their unique challenges and allow people to redeem their CRV deposits,” said Wood.

CONVICTIONS Jerald Thomas Jacobs, 61, of Crescent City, was convicted of driving on a suspended license and was sentenced to one year of probation and a fine of $1,454.

Chad Everett Lovewell, 47, of Smith River, was convicted of DUI and was sentenced to three years of probation, two days in jail and a fine of $1,864.

Cody Miles, 21, of Crescent City, was con-

victed of DUI with blood alcohol above .15 and was sentenced to four days in jail and a fine of $1,864.

In a second case, he was convicted of inflicting corporal injury on spouse/ cohabitant and battery and was sentenced to three years of probation, 12 days in jail and a fine of $1,260.

James Allen Miller, 31, of Crescent City, was convicted of battery on

spouse/cohabitant and was sentenced to 57 days in jail and a fine of $460.

In a second case, he was convicted of contempt of court and was sentenced to five years of probation and a fine of $315.

John Phillip Sanchez, 59, of Crescent City, was convicted of battery on spouse/cohabitant and was sentenced to 90 days in jail and a fine of $920.

Vaccine From Page A1

Ray Altman cast the lone no vote.

Specifically, the letter stated that “mandates will fuel a hesitancy to receive the vaccine because it creates a feeling that it is forced and, in turn, creating (stet) more resistance instead of encouraging people to do research and make that decision for themselves.”

Several residents of Crescent City and Del Norte County also spoke - all of whom supported the council’s action and some who challenged the efficacy of the vaccine.

“There are patients who have had COVID and now have antibodies,” said Stacy Schnacker. “I don’t know why we are being forced to have a vaccine when we have antibodies in our system.”

Stutz confirmed that research suggests antibodies have a positive impact on a person’s ability to fight COVID but added that “the only thing better is having had COVID and the vaccine,” he said. “That is the strongest level of

protection there is.”

In a request for comment from The Triplicate, chair of the Humboldt-Del Norte PreMedical Education Task Force Dr. Caroline Connor took it a step further.

“This action is shortsighted,” Connor said, referring to the assertion from Mayor Greenough that mandates will fuel a hesitancy to get the vaccine. “We have seen healthcare workers, United Airlines, the military, and other groups increase their vaccination rates because of mandates. The hope is we can get a significant portion vaccinated so we can enter herd immunity.”

United Airlines recently touted its COVID-19 mandate, stating that more than 99% of its U.S.-based employees have received the shot or applied for an exemption.

A majority of the council, however, seemed to take no comfort with increasing vaccination rates in a similar manner.

“I’m just happy we are all on the same page,” said Councilman Beau Smith.

“We’re the city of Crescent City, not the city of Gavin Newsom.”

ThecitycouncilofCrescentCityvotedatitsOct.4meetingtosendalettertoGovernorGavinNewsom,aswellastwootherstateofficials,to express opposition to vaccine mandates.

Councilman Blake Inscore initially expressed concerns about the tone of the letter, saying he doesn’t know of anyone who has

had to retire early because they won’t agree to the vaccine (which was mentioned in the letter), and added that he would like to

give some props to Governor Newsom for reversing his stance of mandatory vaccinations of correctional facility employees.

While it’s true Newsom reversed his position of mandates for correctional officers and staff, critics have suggested the governor did so after caving to pressure from the prison guards union.

Also, On Sept. 27, U.S. District Judge Jon Tigar overrode Newsom’s posture change, stating that the vaccine mandates will stand for all 34 of California’s prisons, minus religious or medical exemptions.

Councilman Smith didn’t oppose making edits to the letter but said: “I think we’ve been compli-

ant long enough.”

Smith made a motion for Greenough and Inscore to make edits that would include supporting Newsom for reversing his position on mandated vaccinations in correctional facilities but still proceed with sending the general message of the letter to Newsom, Assemblyman Jim Wood, and Senator Mike McGuire.

Councilman Isaiah Wright seconded the motion.

After the vote, Stutz also informed the council that based on recent declining COVID numbers he will likely recommend that testing of city employees be suspended and that the city council should be able to meet in person at its next meeting on Monday, October 18.

Governor stands with the Great Redwood Trail

DEL NORTE TRIPLICATE

Last week, Senator Mike McGuire thanked Governor Newsom for his courageous signing of SB 69, the Great Redwood Trail Act. “With Big Coal trying to do an end run on the North Coast, the state of California is standing strong for the Great Redwood Trail.

We won’t be intimidated, we’re certainly not going to back down. We will win this fight against Big Coal and the signing of SB 69 today is a massive step forward,” McGuire said. “I’m grateful to the governor for signing this historic legislation that will once and for all, close down the defunct and bankrupt North Coast Railroad Authority and transition the organization into a world class trails agency.

“This bill puts the organization, the funding, and the expert staff in place to fight these midwestern coal barons and to continue the amazing progress on the Great Redwood Trail. We’ll kick off the Trail’s fully funded Master Plan in early 2022 and we couldn’t be more excited.”

Due to the passage and signing of SB 69, NCRA will transition to the Great Redwood Trail Agency on March 1, 2022 and the State Coastal Conservancy will take over oversight and management of the organization no later than July 1, 2022.

The Great Redwood Trail Agency’s mission is to masterplan, design, construct, operate and maintain the Great Redwood Trail.

Huffman, Thompson Call on Secretary Buttigieg to Deny Federal Funding for North Coast Coal Train

Metro Creative Connections

Representatives from the area have writen to Department of Transportation uring them to reconsider the route for the coal train though the district.

Last week, Representatives Jared Huffman (CA02), chair of the Natural Resources Water, Oceans, and Wildlife Subcommittee, and Mike Thompson (CA05) sent a letter to Department of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg urging him to deny federal funding for a railway project intended to transport coal through their districts.

“We cannot imagine that your Department of Transportation, with your strong commitment to climate protection and a bold transition to clean energy, would provide financial support for a coal export project that directly undermines the Biden administration’s climate and clean energy agenda. Nevertheless, we want to make it very clear: we strongly oppose federal funding for this project and urge you to personally ensure that it receives no federal support, including any loans from the department’s Railroad Rehabilitation and Improvement Financing program,” the members wrote in the letter.

Earlier this month, news broke that a Wyoming corporation along with the Utah Inland Port Authority worked behind the scenes exploring a secretive proposal to rehabilitate an unused California railroad that would be used to ship Western-mined coal overseas through the Humboldt Bay port.

California Farm Bureau praises bill signing to help local meat producers California Farm Bureau President Jamie Johansson recently praised Gov. Gavin Newsom for signing Assembly Bill 888 to help small meat producers gain access to markets and provide safe and reliable food to California residents.

“The governor’s signing of this important legislation builds community resilience by supporting local meat production,” Johansson said. “While consumer meat preferences continue to change, this bill provides greater flexibility for California’s livestock ranchers who provide fresh, locally-grown and raised products to those Californians preferring a different animal meat product.”

AB 888, by Assembly Member Marc Levine, D-San Rafael, will provide an exemption from animal slaughter inspections for mobile operations that provide services for owners of sheep, goats or swine. The measure was sponsored by the Farm Bureau.

A recent report by the Food Systems Lab at the University of California, Davis, found that small and midsize meat producers face a lack of access to slaughtering services. The study said that factor, combined with market concentration favoring major meat companies, makes it hard for small producers to stay in business.

The availability of mobile slaughter operations will also help

address systemic weaknesses in the food supply chain for California and the nation, which have been exposed during the COVID-19 pandemic, Johansson said.

“This bill is not a vehicle for replacing any of California’s brick-and-mortar slaughter operations,” Johansson said. “AB 888 will help address meat processing bottlenecks by providing more options to safely slaughter goats, sheep and swine locally.

By allowing for diversification in ranch revenue streams, this bill ensures that small ranchers can stay on the land, bringing down fuel loads while feeding families.

We thank Assembly Member Levine for his leadership in helping ranchers and shepherding this

OSU study: Thinning moderates forest fire behavior even without prescribed burns – for a while

By Steve Lundeberg Mechanical thinning alone can calm the intensity of future wildfires for many years, and prescribed burns lengthen thinning’s effectiveness, according to Oregon State University research involving a seasonally dry ponderosa pine forest in northeastern Oregon.

Findings of the study, led by OSU research associate James Johnston and published in Forest Ecology and Management, are important because reducing accumulated fuels on federal forestland has been a congressional priority for nearly two decades; research such as this helps determine which techniques work.

Johnston’s team looked at years of data for multiple forest parcels – mechanically thinned stands and unthinned control stands – and used computer modeling to predict the behavior of future fires.

The collaboration included his Oregon State College of Forestry colleagues Julia Olszewski, Becky Miller and Micah Schmidt, plus Lisa Ellsworth of the OSU College of Agricultural Sciences and Michael Vernon of Blue Mountains Forest Partners.

“Most of the studies that have been published so far suggest mechanical thinning that isn’t followed by prescribed fire is not as good for moderating fire severity than thinning combined with prescribed fire,” Johnston said. “Some studies have even suggested that thinning without prescribed fire can increase wildfire severity by adding to the buildup of fine fuels on the forest floor.”

Mechanical thinning refers to the use of commercial equipment such as a feller-buncher, which cuts and stacks whole trees, or a cut-to-length harvester and forwarder that results in logs of specific lengths being sent to the mill. In the study areas, all trees up to 53 centimeters in diameter at breast height were removed, and hand crews

“Our work shows that mechanical thinning can moderate fire behavior even in the absence of prescribed fire,” Johnston said. “That’s good news since prescribed fire on national forests has remained flat over the last 20 years because of shortfalls in U.S. Forest Service capacity, a risk-averse agency culture and regulatory constraints on smoke.”

Fuels built up for a year or two after thinning and then declined, and litter and duff declined dramatically as a result of thinning, he said. Forest litter refers to any non-living organic matter that’s fallen to the ground and yet to undergo much decay; duff is the layer of decayed and decaying organic matter between the litter and the soil.

“Although the models show that thinning alone

moderates fire behavior for a number of years, prescribed fire is still a key tool for meeting fuel reduction and fire management objectives in the ponderosa pine forests of the southern Blue Mountains and elsewhere,” Johnston said. “Prescribed fire will extend the longevity of what the mechanical thinning accomplished when the conifers regenerate significantly and those surface fuels start to rise above desired thresholds.”

Across western North America, seasonally dry forests were historically characterized by frequent, low-intensity surface fires that led to the persistence of older trees living in open stands, he said. But starting about 130 years ago, the logging of old, fire-resistant trees, unregulated grazing and a national culture of fire suppression combined to bring

much greater tree density, fuel continuity and surface fuel loading.

“Those changes along with a warming climate have led to increasingly large, fast-moving, stand-replacing fires that have significant negative impacts on old-growth habitat, water quality and human infrastructure,” Johnson said.

“Consequently a range of non-governmental organizations, tribal, state and local governments and private landowners are trying to adapt by reducing fuels.”

Johnston notes that Congress has taken several steps to increase the pace and scale of fuel reduction treatments on Forest Service lands across the West, including the 2009 authorization of the Collaborative Forest Landscape Restoration Program, which funds thinning on

high-priority national forest landscapes.

The southern Blue Mountains, the subject of this research, are one of those high-priority areas, and between 2012 and 2020 more than $17 million has been spent to thin 87,000 hectares in the 220,000-hectare area.

“Less than one-fifth of the area treated with mechanical thinning in the southern Blues has also been treated with prescribed fire,” Johnston said. “Prescribed fire has been significantly slowed by budget constraints, local opposition to fire use, and restrictions imposed by COVID-19 response measures. But our modeling shows thinning can do a lot on its own in terms of rate of fire spread, flame length and crown fire potential. Investments by Congress in fuel reduction thinning in eastern Oregon are working.”

The Forest Service and Blue Mountains Forest Partners funded this research.

In another paper, recently published in the journal Forests, Johnston and OSU colleague Chris Dunn collaborated with John Hogland of the U.S. Forest Service to show that the vast majority of the Malheur National Forest can be restored to ecologically desirable conditions through the commercial harvesting of woody biomass and some timber harvesting.

“The profit margins in most areas, approximately 80% of the landscape, are quite small, and removing material without incurring a financial loss usually requires the removal of sawlogs,” Johnston said. “It’s a reasonable tradeoff, a good tradeoff. Saw timber is part of what needs to come out of the woods to manage fuels and reduce fire risk.”

Oregon State fossil research leads to first description of grass in Baltic amber Amber research by the Oregon State University College of Science has produced the first definite identification of grass in fossilized tree resin from the Baltic region, home to the world’s most wellknown amber deposits.

The specimen studied by George Poinar Jr., named Eograminis balticus, also represents the first fossil member of Arundinoideae, a subfamily of the widespread Poaceae family that includes cereal grasses, bamboos and many species found in lawns and natural grasslands.

Findings, now in preprint, will be published in the International Journal of Plant Sciences.

Blown or shoved against a resin-producing tree, the fossil grass lost one of its spikelets some 40 or 50 million years ago, along with an accompanying insect that had been feeding on it.

A spikelet is one unit of inflorescence, or flower arrangement, and consists of two glumes and one or more florets. A glume is a leaflike structure below the flower cluster, and a floret is one of the small flowers in the cluster.

The fossil spikelet is the first definite evidence that grasses were among the various plants in the Baltic amber forest.

“The discovery not only adds a new plant group to the extensive flora that have been described from Baltic amber but provides new insights into the forest habitat the amber came from, a controversial topic in this field of study,” said Poinar, an international ex-

pert in using plant and animal life forms preserved in amber to learn more about the biology and ecology of the distant past.

Poinar says some scientists have proposed that fossiliferous amber from the Baltic region was formed in tropical and subtropical woods, and others say it came from a humid, marshy, warm-temperate forest.

“Our new grass suggests that for at least a time the habitat was warm-temperate, like you see today in mixed deciduous and conifer forests,” said Poinar, who collaborated on the study with Roberg Soreng of the Smithsonian Institution. “Present on the spikelet is an immature grasshopper-like insect and a leaf-spot fungal spore that provide information on the microhabitat of the fossil grass. The spikelet has structural and developmental features that existed in early Cenozoic grasses and establishes an important calibration point for future studies on the origin and splitting of genera in its subtribe.”

Because of the excellent preservation of the spikelet, observations could be made under direct light with both stereoscopic and compound microscopes, Poinar said.

“The spikelet has some features of members of the extant wetland genus Molinia in the tribe Molinieae, subtribe Moliniinae,” Poinar said. “Molinia species are concentrated around the Baltic Sea, but some of those species’ characteristics are different from what we see in this fossil.”

Informally known as moor grass, Molinia is a wetland genus. In addition to the Baltic region, Molinia is found in sand in habitats ranging from coastal to subalpine, and in

fens and sphagnum bogs in forests. A fen is a peat-accumulating wetland that is fed by surface or ground water rich in minerals.

The Eograminis balticus spikelet specimen origi-

nated from the Samland Peninsula in the Kalinin District of the Russian Federation, Poinar said.

The name of the genus derives from the Latin words for age (aeon) and grass (graminis).

DEL NORTE TRIPLICATE

Warriors win a hard-fought battle in Big 4 opener

By Ray Hamill

For The Triplicate

Junior running back RJ Loftin ran in for three third-quarter touchdowns Saturday afternoon, as the Del Norte Warriors won a wild and entertaining Big 4 football opener at St. Bernard’s.

The two teams combined for six touchdowns in the third quarter alone, four of which came on the first play of drives, with the Warriors then holding on for a 32-27 victory after a scoreless fourth quarter.

“That was a tough game for sure,” said Del Norte head coach Nick White, whose team has now won three straight to go to 3-1 overall and 1-0 in the Big 4. “It was definitely a hardfought battle.”

The Warriors barely saw the ball early in the game with just six offensive snaps in the opening quarter, and they trailed 7-0 after the home team set the early tempo with an impressive opening drive.

Del Norte, however, was just getting warmed up and responded with a pair of unanswered second-quarter TDs, both from Giancarlo Desolenni.

The first came on a 26yard pass from quarterback Cooper Maxwell, capping a 95-yard, 14-play drive.

After a big defensive stand on the ensuing Crusaders drive, the Del Norte offense went to work again, quickly marching 34 yards to the end zone, with Desolenni scoring on a seven-yard TD run.

The Warriors led 14-7 at the break, but both teams were just getting started.

A wild third quarter featured six touchdowns, three from each team, including some big scoring runs.

Loftin found the end zone on runs of two, 10 and nine yards, while Wyatt Simoni scored twice for St. Bernard’s, on runs of 69 and 68 yards, and his teammate Demarte Prudhomme scored on a 62-yard run.

Loftin stepped up his game in the third quarter, taking on a bigger role after starting senior running back Caleb Dodson suffered a leg injury late in the first half and did not return.

“RJ really stepped into that role,” White said.

As usual, Del Norte’s run game paved the way to

The Del Norte Warriors opened Big 4 football play with a 32-27 victory over St. Bernard’s. The Warriors improved to 3-1 overall with the win. Below, the defense came up big in the fourth quarter to clinch the victory.

victory, with several backs contributing behind another strong performance by a bruising line.

“They’re so big and strong and they’re just relentless,” St. Bernard’s head coach Matt Tomlin said of the Warriors.

The Del Norte coach, meanwhile, was pleased with the way his players responded to the early challenges.

“They played hard the whole game and always believed,” he said. “There was a lot of adversity but

we made the plays to win the game and that’s what matters.”

Desolenni also recovered a third-quarter fumble to set up Loftin’s second TD run of the period.

Afterwards, Tomlin praised Nick White and his

brother Chris, who is also a coach with the Warriors.

“The White brothers are doing such a good job,” the St. Bernard’s coach said.

“They’ve really got them rolling up there in Del Norte.”

Del Norte also won the

JV game, 42-0.

Next up, the Warriors will host Fortuna (4-1 overall, 1-0 in league) in another Big 4 showdown on Friday night.

The JV plays at 5 p.m., followed by the varsity teams at 7:30 p.m.
