County’s elected officials take their oaths of office

BY ROGER GITLIN For The Triplicate

The Honorable Robert F. Cochran, judge of the Superior Court, Del Norte County, administered the Constitutional Oath of Office to county elected officials at noon Tuesday in his Department Two courtroom.

Prior to rendering the oath, he thanked each for their “service to the community in an often thankless environment.”

Those taking their oath included were Sheriff Garrett Scott, District 3 Supervisor Chris Howard. District 4 Supervisor Joey Borges, Auditor/Controller Clinton Schaad, District 5 Supervisor Dean Wilson (who took his oath four weeks ago), County Clerk Recorder/Registrar of Voters Alissia Northrup, Assessor Jennifer Perry, Treasurer/ Tax Collector Barbara Lopez and District Attorney Katherine Micks.

A new state law changing the elected law enforcement cycle to the presidential election four year cycle, allows Sheriff Scott and District Attorney Micks a six year term to 2028.

Supervisor Dean Wilson will serve the balance of the past away Bob Berkowitz term through 2024.

All elected officially began their terms in office immediately.

Housing Local crabbers crabby about crab season Authority approves subsidized vouchers

BY ROGER GITLIN For The Triplicate

At the last December Crescent City Council meeting, councilors adjourned as the Crescent City Authority and unanimously and conditionally approved the awarding of 70 project based vouchers to the Battery Point Apartment project.

The units are divided into 40 senior and 30 family units. The residential units are all Section 8 approved. The proposal was submitted by the non-profit Synergy. When all funding is secured, Battery Point Apartments will total 160 units with different scaffolding of financial support For tenants.

As part of the award, Synergy will need two additional funding components before construction can commence by February 2024.

Battery Point Apartments plans to build the units on a vacant five acre parcel located off Gary Avenue and G Street.

On other agendized items, Chief Richard Griffin welcomed recent College of the Redwoods Academy graduate Connor Sperling to the Department and congratulated Officer Alex Pearson on his promotion to sergeant.

Sheriff Garrett Scott addressed the Council and updated councilors on the status of the Del Norte Sheriff’s Department.

Sheriff Scott began his new four year term, January 3, when the sheriff assumed Animal Control from county agriculture.

The sheriff reported the filling of several open roster positions.

Currently there are 15 sworn patrol deputies. Other vacant positions of bailiff, corrections and dispatch are being addressed with strong effort and respectable results. Sheriff Scott is also the coroner; he reported 236 death certificates were recorded this year.

The Edward Letter is fully loaded in preparation of the start of the Dungeness crab season. Although crabbers were allowed to start fishing last week, many local crabbers have chosen to wait due to uncertainty in the market.

Uncertainty in market makes many wait to start and operating on a fair and level playing field. Many of the commercial vessels have yet to begin the season, instead waiting for Oregon vessels to depart, en masse mid-January. According to the local crabbers, this delay may also present a different set of problems.

Commercial vessel captains and owners were reluctant to speak

with The Triplicate and share their concerns for fear of economic reprisal from the contracted, exclusive buyer of commercial crab, Pacific Choice. The fisherman cite the $2 per pound offered price as unreasonable. California diesel fuel is priced at $6 per gallon, while Oregon crabbers can fill up diesel fuel at $2.99 per gallon. Another issue

expressed by the fishermen is the concern of unintentionally snagging a migrating whale.

If this happens, the state via the Department of Fish and Wildlife could shut down the season. The mammals began their migration to the warm waters of Mexico, last

Robertson.

Acting Warden Smith began his California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation career at PBSP in 1997, after serving five years in the Army.

After transferring from PBSP,

Smith developed his career at the substance abuse treatment facility at Corcoran until 2021, transferring to Kern Valley State Prison, until he was assigned to Pelican Bay, last month.

Warden Smith reports the PBSP

inmate population at 1,757. CDCR inmate population across the 34 institutions is reported at 92,596.

California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation projects inmate population to reduce to just under 86,000.

whales per hour will pass by Del Norte County’s coastline.

A climate of fear pervades the crabbers’ mode of operations and threatens their livelihood. Last week, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife boarded a Eureka vessel and reported the meat quantity mass of crab increased by 1.25 per-

cent over the previous week.

Several fishermen expressed skepticism of the DFW monitored report. In its defense, Pac-Choice justification for the initial low price per pound is its concern in purchasing “hollow “ crab with diminished meat content.

OBITUARIES

Joan Warner

Donald I Stewart

December 17, 2022

December 29, 2022

Our beloved mother, grandmother, aunt, cousin, sister and friend passed away on December 17, 2022, after a prolonged illness.

Joan was born in 1937 in Crescent City, California.

She was an active tribal member of the Elk Valley Rancheria Tribe located in Crescent City. She attended school in Eureka, California and graduated from Eureka High School in 1956.She resided in Germany and the San Francisco Bay area in her early years.

Many will remember her as a staff member at the College of the Redwoods Childcare Center where she read stories during nap time.

She was also a secretary at NCIDC in Eureka and the enrollment clerk at Elk Valley Rancheria.

Joan had many longtime special friends: Jerrie Kennedy Bartley, Ramona Fritz Billeci, Judy Crull Church, Corrina Blakely, and Raja Store.

She loved attending her high school reunions and the Eureka music festival.

Joan had a passion for going to thrift stores and rummage sales that led to her many collections. Friends and acquaintances have been amazed and entertained by all of her prized collections.

Joan loved her flowers and succulents and spent many hours tending to her garden.

She was a gifted artist. We all enjoyed her wonderful, whimsical paintings.

She was so talented and could make anything look beautiful.

Joan was preceded

in death by her grandparents Samuel and Amanda Lopez, mother Pansy Lopez Keeling Blazina, stepfather Charles Blazina, father Floyd Albert Keeling, sister Donna Keeling Crook, daughter Heidi Warner Valadao and son-inlaw Virgil Valadao.

Aunts and uncles Arthur Lopez, Ada Richards (Lopez), Dorothy Williams (Lopez), Edna Lopez, Herbert Lopez, Samuel Lopez Jr., Harold Lopez, Amanda Housley (Lopez), and Arnold Lopez. Niece Bonnie Seipp Japport, great niece Jennika Suaso and great nephew Samuel Portillo. Cousins Robert Lopez, Loeta Stinchcomb, Marion Lopez, Frank Richards, and Howan Lopez.

She leaves behind her son Richard Warner (Diane), her daughter Katherine Figueiredo, her sister Shirley Keeling Tomlinson, her grandsons Mathew Valadao (Kelsey) and Kristiano Figueiredo. Nieces and nephews Jennifer Cain, Jennie Seipp, July Seipp, Frank Portillo (Barbara) and Albert Portillo (Gina). Great nephews Thomas Portillo, Kenneth Portillo and Michael Thompson (Kim). Cousins Connie Baker, Dale Ann Sherman (Marlon), Lorena Lopez Snyder, Machele Lopez, Arlene Hulsey, Harold Lopez (Carolyn) and numerous other relatives.

She was loved and will be missed by all; the world has

a lot less sparkle with her passing.

There will be a celebration of life on Friday, January 6, 2023, at 2:00 pm at the Sam Lopez Community Center at Elk Valley Rancheria 2332 Howland Hill Rd. Crescent City, California.

Donald I. Stewart (known as Don to his friends) was born in Swedesboro, New Jersey to Dr. Irving J. Stewart and Marguerite Black Stewart.

He passed away at home in Smith River on December 29, 2022, at the age of 92.

He is survived by his wife, Nan Marie Stewart of Smith River, his sister, Anne Hubbell of San Diego, his son Chris Stewart of Mammoth, grandchildren Krystle Stewart, Patrick Stewart, Spencer Stewart, his niece Diane Stewart of Klamath, and other loving family members. Don was predeceased by his son, Kim Stewart, and daughter, Laurie Stewart.

He was a resident of Del Norte County for 33 years in both Klamath and Smith River. Earlier in his professional life, he worked at Douglas Aircraft on the Nike missile design program and then served in the US Army during the Korean War as an instructor on the operation and repair of the same

missiles, which the Army was placing along the east and west coasts for national defense. He had many stories from that time of military life and the people he met, and the unexpected connections he found with them.

Don pursued an advanced education in physics and electrical engineering with degrees from Cornell, Stanford, and Case Institute of Technology, ultimately obtaining a Ph.D. He spent most of his post-Army career in Los Angeles working in aerospace design, systems analysis, Navy ship and satellite design. He spent many of his retirement years renovating old houses, tutoring teenagers in math and science, installing, and repairing electronic equipment for numerous friends and family, and being especially helpful and caring to his wife, Nan. Don loved the redwood forest, ocean, and wildlife he found here in Del Norte County. He was a faithful

daily provider to the hummingbirds who flocked to the feeders he maintained.

He brightened many conversations and social events with his humor and boundless supply of clever jokes and stories. Don will be greatly missed by his wife, niece, and many friends in Del Norte, as well as extended family.

A Celebration of Life Service will be held in the springtime.

Arrangements are under the direction of Wier’s Mortuary Chapel. Please sign the family’s online guest book at wiersmortuary.com

Guest Column

The “energy Eye on Del Norte gap” nobody New Year’s Resolutions: Are we serious yet? wants to tussle with

By DAVE MARSTON Many Western states have declared they will achieve all-renewable electrical goals in just two decades. Call me naïve, but haven’t energy experts predicted that wind, sun and other alternative energy sources aren’t up to the job?

Alice Jackson, former CEO of Xcel energy’s Colorado operation, was blunt at a renewable energy conference in February 2020: “We can reliably run our grid with up to 70% renewables. Add batteries to the mix and that number goes up to just 72%.”

Grid experts now say that Jackson’s number is 80%, but still, how will that utility and others produce that missing power?

Bill Gates and a raft of other entrepreneurs see the answer in small, modular nuclear reactors, pointing to the small nuclear engines that have safely run America’s nuclear submarines for decades.

Here’s what we know about these efficient reactors: They’re built in factories, and once in operation they’re cheap to keep going.

Each module is typically 50 megawatts, self-contained, and installed underground after being transported to its site. The modular design means that when more power is needed, another reactor can be slotted in.

Breakthrough features include safety valves that automatically send coolant to the reactor if heat spikes.

This feature alone could have eliminated disasters like Fukushima or Chernobyl, where water pumps failed and cores started melting down.

If small nuclear modules don’t fill the renewables gap, where else to find the “firm power” that Jackson says is needed? The Sierra Club calls on pumped hydro and geothermal as sources of reliable electricity you can just flip on when renewables slow down. But the best geothermal spots have been taken, and pumped hydro has geographic limits, and environmental resistance.

Another proposal is linking grids across the country for more efficiency. The idea is that excess wind blowing in Texas could be tapped after the sun goes down on California’s solar farms. This holds incremental promise but progress has been routinely blocked by conservative lawmakers.

There’s also the cost argument — that renewables are cheaper. In a fossil-fuel-dominated grid that’s true.

However, MIT points out that as renewables dominate the grid, on-demand forms of power rise in value.

The extreme danger to the grid is the dreaded “dunkelflaute,” a German word for cloudy, windless weather that slashes solar and wind power generation for weeks.

So the problem remains: To avoid rolling blackouts, we need reliable power at the right times, which are usually from 5-8 p.m. That’s when people come home and fire up their gadgets and appliances.

The increasing demand for electricity only adds to the problem: A 2020 Washington Post article predicted that electrification of the economy by 2050 would result in a usage bump of 38%, mostly from vehicles.

Consider Ford’s all-electric F150 Lightning, cousin to the bestselling gasoline F150.

The $39,000 entry-level truck was designed to replace gasoline generators at job sites, meaning vehicle recharge happens when workers go home, just as renewables flag.

This calls into question what many experts hope car batteries can provide — doing double duty by furnishing peak power for homes at night.

Longer-lasting storage batteries have long been touted as a savior, though Tara Righetti, co-director of the Nuclear Energy Research Center at the University of Wyoming, has reservations.

“There are high hopes that better batteries will be developed. But in terms of what is technically accessible right now? I think nuclear provides an appealing option.”

Meanwhile, small nuclear reactors are underway, with Bill Gates’ TerraPower building a sodium-cooled fast reactor in the coal town of Kemmerer, Wyoming.

One 345-megawatt reactor, which generates enough electricity for 400,000 homes, will be paired with a molten-salt, heat storage facility.

Think of it as a constantly recharging battery in the form of stored heat. In the evening as renewable power flags, it would pump out 500 megawatts of power for up to 5 hours.

These reactors also tackle the little-known problem of cold-starting the electrical grid after an outage. In 2003, suffering a blackout, the Eastern grid could not have restarted with renewables alone.

However we choose to close the energy gap, there’s no time to lose. Wild temperature swings have grid operators increasingly nervous. California has come close to rolling blackouts, and temperatures in the West now break record after record.

As our climate becomes more erratic, reliable electricity is becoming a matter of life and death.

Dave Marston is the publisher of Writers on the Range, writersontherange.org, an independent nonprofit dedicated to spurring lively conversation about the West. He lives in Colorado.

Happy New Year wishes for 2023. It’s hard to believe, tempus fugit and poof, it’s a new year.

It’s about this time each of us declares our New Year’s resolutions: losing ten pounds, cutting down on sugar intake, being more tolerant of those we don’t agree with, doing more exercise, ignoring our emails for just one day, volunteer in the community, the list of changes to embrace our faults is endless.

By Presidents Day, most of us will have broken our resolution promises and reverted to our old lovable and flawed selves. Life goes on.

I do have a resolution and appreciate your allowing me to share it with you.

Please join me in starting a walking club. Former Triplicate editor Richard Wiens shared his passion for hiking.

Wiens’ noteworthy Triplicate features on area hikes was an absolute pleasure to read. Wiens was a veritable encyclopedia of cool walks and hikes in Del Norte and Curry counties. Wiens has returned from

Hawaii and I hope he’ll share his knowledge of area hikes.

Let’s organize a walking group. All are welcome…Seniors, teens and in-between are welcome.

My interest in low stress impact walking is long-standing. As a former 5k, 10k and occasional half-marathoner, I’ve come to the realization after seven and a half decades on this Earth, I need to seek other avenues to vent my energy.

After learning about the newly-dedicated Hiouchi Trail, Angela and I drove out to the .8 mile dog-friendly Trail to experience the walk.

Delightful was the underscored adjective describing the walk from the Hiouchi Café to the Jed Smith State and National Park, and walk-back.

Recognition and appreciation for the Hiouchi Trail goes to State and National Parks, the Tolowa dee-ni nation and the Smith River Alliance.

My Resolution for 2023 is to organize a walking event from the Hiouchi Café

to Jed Smith Park, along the Hiouchi Trail.

With the help of Roger an engaged public, Gitlin other walks can be organized in subsequent weeks.

Our first walk will be along the Hiouchi Trail, Saturday, January 21 at 10AM, weather permitting. Meet on the south side of the Hiouchi Café for the 1.6 mile (RT) walk.

Those who wish to join us for coffee or breakfast, please do after our light hike.

Hiouchi Trail is dog-friendly. Bring your pooch and leash.

Help me make good on my New Year’s resolution. Let’s circulate the blood and pump our hearts a bit and consume all the natural beauty which surrounds us.

Should I Stay or Should I Go?

“If I go there will be trouble and if I stay it will be double.” These are the lyrics of a song by The Clash about deciding whether to leave a relationship.

I met a friend recently who asked me if I enjoyed writing my weekly column.

Without hesitating I answered no I don’t enjoy it, but I feel like it is a community service to help inform people.

It takes a lot of effort for me to write a column and I have written 41 so far.

Researching a topic, analyzing, writing, and editing all take time. And the production deadline must be met every Tuesday.

This is a lot to expect from a retired guy. It’s like work but I don’t get paid.

That’s right I am a volunteer. Guess who volunteered me, Roger Gitlin. I am not sure why.

From the newspaper’s standpoint they are providing a balanced perspective by giving Gitlin and me the invitation to write a column. They truly have taken a hands-off approach to allowing me and my counter columnist unbridled free speech.

We don’t have a set topic assignment each week. We are both just freewheeling it. This explains the divergence of topics that are presented weekly for your consideration.

I have talked to a few people who have told me that they appreciate what I have written. Occasionally I get an email

with kind words of support. But I am not sure how many people actually read my column. I do not need to talk to myself. I can do that at home.

I have gotten no negative feedback except from the one person who did not like the title of my column, “View from the Left”. They argued that my ideas and opinions are not “leftist” but are mainstream. I guess that is debatable and that is the point.

I have a lot of respect for the people who toil every week to produce our local paper. This is a never-ending endeavor. I have been caught up in this repeating news cycle and as I head into the new year, I ask myself whether my contribution to this publication is useful or needed.

As much as I enjoy occasionally poking fun at Gitlin, I could easily give up this weekly chore and settle into a fulltime commitment to retirement. Then I remember that this is a privilege that has been given to me.

I was talking to my daughter over Christmas break and explained to her that I try to write columns that will advise and inspire action. I want to have a positive impact.

Over the last forty-one weeks, I have written columns highlighting the progress being made by government agencies like the Harbor District, Crescent City, and the Tri-Agency Economic Development

Authority.

I have advocated for the development of more affordable housing and assistance to the unhoused.

Kevin I have spoken up Hendrick on environmental issues like nuclear power, wind power and redwood forest preservation.

There are many ongoing issues that I think need to remain in the limelight, but…

I would like to hear back from more of you. Do you think that I should continue to write this column? What topic areas would you be interested in reading about?

Should I stay focused on state and local issues or wade into the mire of national and international politics?

As always, my email address is listed on the bottom of the page.

Like Elon Musk, I will conduct an informal, unscientific, non-binding poll of my readers. Now it is time for you to write.

“Come on and let me know. Should I stay or should I go?”

Opinion: Broadband Costs are Affordable

By JOHNNY KAMPIS InsideSources.com

As part of its requirements for access to taxpayer funds from the Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment program, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration wants states to submit a plan showing their efforts to promote middle-class affordability. An industry trade group said in a recent report that broadband is already generally affordable for that economic class.

Rick Cimerman, vice president of external and state affairs at NCTA — The Internet and Television Association, noted in a recent webinar that price is not preventing widespread adoption of broadband by the middle class. Based on 2020 statistics from the Bureau of Labor, NCTA defined the middle class as those earning between $45,300 and $76,200.

Going further, Cimerman used the Federal Communications Commission’s Lifeline modernization effort in 2016 to set the threshold for affordability at 2 percent of monthly household income.

By that standard, broadband is quite affordable for the middle class, according to Cimerman. The analysis found that the middle class spends an average of $69 monthly for broadband. That number represents just 1.1 percent of annual income for those at the top of Cimerman’s range and 1.8 percent for those at the bottom.

Consumers can thank dropping broadband prices for this affordability when the cost of just about everything else keeps rising.

A report by US Telecom released earli-

er this year found that the cost of the most popular broadband services in the study dropped by nearly 14.7 percent from 2021 to 2022. In addition, the costs for plans with the fastest speeds also dropped 11.6 percent from 2021 to 2022. These cost decreases came as the overall costs of goods and services increased by 8 percent in the past year.

Cimerman said during the webinar that the drop over the past several years is even more precipitous — 39 percent for the highest-speed plans between 2015 and 2021 and 26 percent for the most popular plans.

In preparation for the Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment funding requirements, some states are seeking help from their citizens. For example, the Broadband Access Study Commission in New jersey created an online survey for residents to answer questions about broadband speed, usage and cost.

New Jersey Board of Public Utilities President Joe Fiordaliso said that the survey “will identify barriers to broadband service such as physical access, deployment and affordability, and I ask residents from all areas of the state to take the survey to inform our work.”

Witnesses at a hearing of the Senate Subcommittee on Communications, Media and Broadband on December 13 to discuss best practices for the billions in taxpayer money being distributed to grow broadband infrastructure said governments cutting red tape will help keep high-speed internet affordable and speed up its growth.

For example, US Telecom CEO Jona-

than Spalter suggested the subcommittee should pass legislation to create 60-day “shot clocks” for federal agencies to approve or deny project applications.

“Federal agencies (sit) on permits for years with no action,” he said. “Much can be done by policymakers at all levels of government to eliminate barriers that deny or delay affordable, reliable high-speed connectivity for all.”

The recent reports about consumer broadband costs are encouraging. It is hoped that federal, state and local governments will work to reduce regulatory barriers so that broadband can continue to grow rapidly and at an affordable rate.

If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. Notice to Potential Bidders If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a Trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a Trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You

should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same Lender may hold more than one mortgage or Deed of Trust on the property. Notice to Property Owner The sale date shown on this Notice of Sale may be postponed one or more times by the Mortgagee, Beneficiary, Trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about Trustee Sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call Nationwide Posting & Publication at 916.939.0772 for information regarding the Trustee’s Sale or visit the Internet Website www.nationwideposting. com for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, CA07000901-22-1.

Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

Notice to Tenant NOTICE TO TENANT FOR FORECLOSURES AFTER JANUARY 1, 2021 You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction.

If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 916.939.0772, or visit this internet website www.nationwideposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case CA07000901-22-1 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee.

Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

CDFW Awards $11 Million for Fisheries Habitat Restoration gon, Washington, Idaho and Alaska.

“As California continually feels the effects of climate change, rising sea levels, prolonged drought, more extreme temperatures and extreme precipitation events, restoring degraded river ecosystems is more important than ever before,” CDFW Director Charlton H. Bonham said. “These FRGP funded projects will help restore the refugia salmonids need.”

In response to the 2022 Fisheries Habitat Restoration Grant Solicitation, CDFW received 50 proposals requesting more than $38 million in funding. As a competitive grant program, proposals underwent a rigorous technical review process which included CDFW and NOAA

The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) today announced the selection of 25 projects that will receive funding for the restoration, enhancement and protection of anadromous salmonid habitat in California watersheds.

The grants, which total $11 million, were awarded through CDFW’s Fisheries Restoration Grant Program (FRGP).

FRGP was first established in 1981 and since 2000 has included funding from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Pacific Coastal Salmon Recovery Fund, established by Congress to reverse the declines of Pacific salmon and steelhead throughout California, Ore-

scientists.

The 25 approved projects will further the objectives of state and federal fisheries recovery plans, including removing barriers to fish migration, restoring riparian habitat, recovering wildfire impacts detrimental to rivers, and creating a more resilient and sustainably managed water resources system (e.g., water supply, water quality and habitat) that can better withstand drought conditions.

These projects further the goals of California’s Water Action Plan and CDFW’s State Wildlife Action Plan, as well as addressing limiting factors specified in state and federal recovery plans.

The list of approved projects is available on the FRGP website.

DEL NORTE TRIPLICATE

Dear Friends, In 1980 a newly graduated veterinarian, Dennis and his wife Becky, left UC Davis and ventured to beautiful northern California to begin their life together and raise a family. They were fortunate to settle in Crescent City and on January 2, 1982, purchased and reopened the oldest veterinary office in Del Norte County, then Northcrest Veterinary Clinic. With an award-winning remodel in 1996, state of the art medical technology and a new name it is now the 40th anniversary year of All Creatures Animal Hospital & Bird Clinic.

We have been blessed to live, work and raise our wonderful children in Del Norte County and to call it home and you our friends for the past 42 years. Thank you for the gift of your friendship and the confidence and trust you have shown us. We are honored that you have entrusted us with the responsibility of serving your pet’s health care needs and look forward to serving you and yours in the years to come.

May you, your family and your pets be blessed with good health and may your home be filled with happiness and joy this holiday season and throughout the year.

Sincerely, Sincerely

Warmest wishes from everyone at All Creatures Animal Hospital & Bird Clinic.

Dr. Dennis R. Wood, Becky and Family, and the Health Care Team of All Creatures Animal Hospital & Bird Clinic

Making a Difference donated design concepts for the center. The firm also designed All Creatures Animal Hospital & Bird Clinic, which won first runner-up in Veterinary Economics’ 1996 Hospital Design Competition.

Just a year out of veterinary school, Dr. Dennis Wood rescued a Crescent City, Calif. practice from foreclosure. But it would be the first of many rescues throughout his career.

During his early years as a small animal and exotic practitioner, Dr. Wood made house calls to two harbor seals and three sea lions at Undersea World in Crescent City. Soon All Creatures Animal Hospital & Bird Clinic gained a reputation for its exotic and wildlife expertise.

“We take them all in — from a sea gull with a broken wing to an injured mountain lion cub,” says the 1980 graduate of the University of California at Davis. “Many animals are injured as a result of human intervention. Part of our veterinary oat is to care for these animals.”

But caring for Crescent City marine mammals provided unique challenges. The federally protected mammals required treatment at facilities with special permits.

Transporting the injured wildlife to another county;s favility caused further trauma. Dr. Wood dreamed of building a marine mammal treatment and rehabilitation center for the seaside community.

After struggles to obtain a permit and non-profit status, Dr. Wood founded the Northcoast Marine Mammal Center in 1985. With help from volunteers and community leaders, he got a $150,000 grant to build the 1,700 square-foot facility.

Gates Hafen Cochrane Architects

But the dream of a non-profit marine mammal center was nearly washed away when construction bids were double the anticipated price.

Thanks to a creative partnership, the facility opened in 1992—at half the cost of professional bids. The California Conservation Corps and a local comminity college provided labor, an instructorm abd construction supervisors.

“Inner city kids got college credit to help build the facility,” he says.

“Most came in with no skills and went out with electrical, concrete, and other construction skills. The instructor said this was one of their most valuable student projects.”

In addition to running his own practice, Dr. Wood volunteers veterinary services and supplies to care for 30 to 50 injured, sick, or orphaned marine mammals each year. Tangles with boats, fishing nets, debris, and people often cause the animals’ injuries. But the most common danger is well-intentioned people.

During the pup season, harbor seals give birth on the beach then leave to fish for up to six hours.

“People assume the baby has been abandoned,” Dr. Wood says. “When the mother looks form the ocean to make sure the baby is okay, she sees people surrounding her pup. Then she abandons it.”

Family values flourish in a welcoming atmosphere Dr. Dennis Wood and his wife, Becky Wood, wanted a hospital that reflected their commitment to family, community, and the veterinary profession. With this successful design, they’ve also brought home a first runner-up prize.

It’s hard to tell now, but the All Creatures Animal Hospital & Bird Clinic of Crescent City, Calif., once was a flat-roofed, cramped maze of a facility (inset).

Solo practitioner Dr. Dennis Wood and his wife, Becky Wood, wanted their hospital to be a warm home away from home for their clients and patients. To fully utilize the site, Dr. Wood extended the building to the street and pitched the flat roof. The change not only gives the hospital a welcoming look, it offers a dominant presence on a busy thoroughfare. Wooden columns are reminiscent of a colonial porch; old-fashioned iron light posts enhance the small-town image and keep the hospital brightly lit for late-night visitors.

By Colleen E. Ryckert Senior Associate Editor As visitors enter the All Creatures Animal Hospital & Bird clinic in Crescent City, Calif., they’re greeted with the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and buttery popcorn. But this newly renovated hospital does much more than evoke feelings of down-home warmth and hospitality. The dramatic facelift of one of the oldest clinics in the area also gives new hope to a community striving to recover from a failing timber-and-fishing-based economy.

Dr. Dennis Wood and his wife, Becky Wood, who works as the hospital director, say they plan to use their renovated facility to enhance the community’s perception of veterinary medicine. But best of all, Dr. Wood says, the hospital’s efficient design means they now are practicing the high-quality medicine their clients expect and their patients deserve.

The judges in Veterinary Economics’

1996 Hospital Design Competition were so impressed with the All Creatures Animal Hospital & Bird Clinic that they named it First Runner-Up in the Additions/ Alterations category. They praised the facility’s “warm reception area” and “good variety of exam-room sizes.”

Complimenting the homey hospital, one judge remarked, “This family really has a handle on life and a great balance among profession, family, and community service.”

In the trenches It was late 1981 when Dr. Wood, just a year out of the university of California at Davis, rescued a struggling practice from foreclosure. “The previous owner was in the middle of renovating when the hospital went under,” Dr. Wood recalls. He and his wife soon found themselves pouring concrete, setting tiles, and putting up drywall. “We had two weeks to get it ready for clients.

Becky and I called on family, friends— everyone who could wield a hammer.”

Hundreds of newspaper articles have educated the public and chronicled the center’s and Dr. Wood’s work. Besides balancing six children and a busy practice, he and his wife and hospital director, Becky, volunteer thousands of hours to wildlife rehabilitation, a veterinary Explorers group, county disaster relief, comminuty theater, and much more.

“You can balance veterinary medicine, a familty, and community service,” he says. “We don’t have the hours to do this. We make them.”

Hard-working vet keeps up with demanding job And he still finds time to ride his Harley

By Inez Castor For the Triplicate Twenty years ago, local veterinarians treated dogs, cats, and farm animals. Very little was known about the medical needs of birds and marine mammals.

That’s abut the time that Dennis Wood brought his young wife Becky, and his new doctor of veterinary medicine license to Del Norte County.

The couple bought a veterinary practice from a retiring doctor and began to raise a family.

“I was seeing mostly farm animals and a few pets,” Dennis remembers. “People who wanted

to know about birds went to pet stores.”

“My first introduction to marine mammals was a harbor seal on a gurney racing through the halls of the Veterinary Medicine Teaching Hospital at Davis,” he said. “Everybody wanted to touch it, and none of us knew anything about them.”

“There was almost nothing written on marine mammal health then.”

Shortly after Dennis began his local practice, people started showing up in his office with harbor seal puppies they’d moves from the beach, because they thought the pups had been abandoned.

They brought in sick seals, seals with bullet wounds, and owls

that chased insects into headlights.

Dennis began learning all he could about marine mammals and birds, and teaching what he learned to anyone who would volunteer to help. The rest is history, culminating in the creation of the Northcoast Marine Mammal Center.

The center opened in 1994 on a site for which Crescent City charges an annual fee of $1.

Dennis is quick to share the credit for the success of the center with the volunteers who do nearly all the daily works and a loose network of individuals, local agencies and state institutions.

“From the beginning, Sutter Coast Hospital has done our lab work free. They’ve donated outdated drugs, X-ray machines

and all sorts of equipment,” he said.

“Fisherman that have to catch a net full of herring to check for eggs donate the fish to us. The whole community has helped.

The prison sometimes donates things like 10,000 syringes, so we’ve become distributors for the wildlife network,” he said. “We send things to Wildlife Images in Grants Pass, and the Marine Mammal Center in Marin.”

More than half of the marine mammals seen have humanrelated problems.

Some have nets caught around their necks, bullet wounds, and dog bites. Some are perfectly healthy seal pups.

“This time of year, we’re real busy because of the harbor seal

pupping,” Dennis explained.

“People are still picking them up.

We had one last week that was being watched, and we knew it was okay. Then a woman called us; she had picked it up, snuggled it in a towel so it wouldn’t catch cold, and took it home.”

The frustration he felt at the needless suffering cause by this ill-advised action is plain in his voice and his face. It will cost approximately $500 to feed and care for the pup until it can be released, assuming it doesn’t die of shock and human contact.

“The overall sentiment toward wildlife is good these days, because peer pressure does have an effect,” he mused, returning to the positive.

Axel Englund gave his community just that, and this was the belief that Englund Marine was founded with on July 22, 1944. His 50’ by 50’ store in Astoria, OR later expanded up and down the west coast, becoming a preferred and trusted name among commercial fishermen. The first expansion came with the addition of our store in Ilwaco, WA in 1966; followed by Westport in 1975. A few years later we opened a store in Charleston, OR, and then bought Crescent Marine in Crescent City, CA. With the slowing economy in 1983, Englund Marine had a great opportunity to move into another branch of the marine business. U.S. Distributing, a wholesale marine distributor in Portland, OR was purchased. This distribution center, which supplies all of our retail stores, really helped and continues to ensure that stock will be in our stores when our customers need it. In 1988 Englund Marine added our store in Newport, OR. One year later we brought our “great service” attitude to Phoenix, AZ where we had an opportunity to purchase another distributor warehouse; Marine Wholesale.

Our last store opened in Eureka, CA in 1995, serving the folks in Northern California better than ever. In 2001 we acquired Fisher Brothers, a 100-year-old supply house and landmark in Astoria, OR, expanding our industrial product line and putting salesmen on the road. Faced with the need for an updated facility, we moved our Astoria store into our current 40,000 square foot building located at the Port of Astoria in January 2006. Finally, in 2007 U.S. Distributing opened a warehouse in Missoula, MT to meet the need for quality products with fast delivery in the Rocky Mountain West.

In April of 2022, we moved the U.S. Distributing warehouse to a larger building in a nice new location. In December of 2022, we moved our Eureka store into a brand new building!

Over the last 78 years, Englund Marine has grown its service rapidly and is still growing. We have a full-service raft shop to keep crews safe, and two stores have full rigging shops. We continue to run our business on the same belief of, “Quality merchandise and great service.” This is all possible because of the dedication of our people. We pride ourselves on being knowledgeable about our business. You will get advice from experts in your field. We’re here to help you and to solve your marine problems, since 1944.
