Crescent City native trains to be a U.S. Navy sailor

BY RICK BURKE Navy Office of Community Outreach

GREAT LAKES, Ill. - Sailors are some of the most highly-trained people on the planet, according to Navy officials, and this training requires highly-dedicated instructors.

At Naval Education and Training Command (NETC), instructors at advanced technical schools teach sailors to be highly skilled, operational, and combat ready warfighters, while providing the tools and opportunities for continuous learning and development.

Seaman Victoria Love Montecillo, a native of Crescent City, California, is a student at NETC, learning the necessary skills needed to be a boatswain’s mate.

As a boatswain’s mate, Montecillo is responsible for fueling operations, line handling, replenishment of supplies, communications, and the upkeep and preservation of Navy ships.

“I joined the Navy for more opportunities, experiences, and for a chance to have a better life for myself in the future,” said Montecillo.

According to Montecillo, the values required to succeed in the Navy are similar to those found in Crescent City.

Del Norte suspects arrested in Oregon THE TRIPLICATE Two suspects who attempted to elude a Curry County Sheriff’s Department deputy are now facing a slew of criminal charges.

Deputy Kenney Moore attempted to pull over 40-yearold Robert Sutherland at about 8 p.m. on Monday, Aug. 8.

Sutherland had an arrest warrant and had also violated a court-ordered restraining order out of

Del Norte County, California.

Sutherland – who was later found to be driving a stolen vehicle with stolen license plates - tried to elude the deputy, according to a press release from the Curry County Sheriff’s Department.

The vehicle hit a curb at on West Benham Lane near the 101 Bar and Grill in Harbor. Both Sutherland, and his passenger, Please see ARREST, Page A3

Train club brings a County fair brings excitement, piece of history to life

nostalgia to Del Norte County

BY TAYSHA ROBINSON

BY TAYSHA ROBINSON The Triplicate

Walking to the south end of the fairgrounds, past all the rides, the vendors and the fried delectables sits a quaint red caboose and in it, pictures, stories and a model train.

12-year-old Ben narrates technical information with such passion and precision, he captures the attention of all who wander into the tucked back train cart caboose that upon first glance, would have one thinking Del Norte County Fairgrounds has joined the tiny house revolution. He tells stories rich in local logging and transportation history, pointing out fun details in pictures on the wall as well as the model train and railyard in front of him, all built from scratch.

The Triplicate

There’s nothing quite like the excitement of driving the 101 through our small two-lane town and seeing brightly colored chunks of machinery lined up in an otherwise empty parking lot the days leading up to the Del Norte County Fair.

Each day, more and more transformer-esque trucks and trailers fold outwards and upwards into the neon lights that make up one of the most entertaining community events of the year. It’s truly a whimsical time filled with carnival rides alongside our besties, overpriced games played for oversized stuffies, and sweet deep fried Please see FAIR, Page A2

From exposing miniature details and how they differ from others in the world of model trains to fine tuning his inherent talent in electrical wizardry, his train comes to life. He excitedly shared train-related treasures he had found with his metal detector out in the Bertsch Track as well as adventurous outings to find a rumored long-lost engine behind the fairgrounds, of all places. How refreshing it was to hear a youngster growing up in a tech-obsessed era speak of outdoor adventures and handson crafting of tiny electrical machinery.

When asked what his favorite thing about being in the Del Norte Short Lines Club, he responded “The members.

Everybody is just so nice.”

nostalgia.

In a small rural county such as Del Norte, where choices for family entertainment are few and far between, the county fair brings with it not only the winning accouterments we all know and love but a chance for locals to showcase their many talents and passions. With categories that include

floral arrangements, baked goods, canning, sewing, animal showcasing and everything one could think of in between, the county fair is undoubtedly rich in local culture and tradition and what better way to keep that culture active and tradition alive than supporting the next generation of local youth.

Living in a rugged rural agriculturally-active community such as Del Norte lends itself to the true purpose of county fairs. In lieu of massive mechanical

rides with safety features, there’s brave folk on the backs of buckin’ livestock and behind the wheels of demolition derby.

Where some stand in line to buy deep-fried diabetes, there’s community members who enter delectable home-made goodies they’ve perfected in taste and style. For every adult kickin back having a drink in the beer garden, there’s a youngster taking better care of their livestock than some adults.

This is the real spirit of the county fair. Yes, all-inall the Del Norte County Fair is a time-honored tradition where this communities talents, passion and country know-how all come together for one heck of a crowd pleasing few days.

His smile then started to fade a bit, recalling how few members they have these days vs just a few years ago. Of course, a club started in the ’70s is bound to have a good set of old-timers but unfortunately for this club, many of them have perished over the last few years. Because of this, Ben explained, they no longer had the ability to maintain the larger train set-up they once had proudly displayed in one of the bigger fairground buildings.

When asked what years these railways that used to lay down through sections of what would now be Kings Valley Road, Lower Lake Drive, Pebble Beach, Bertsch Track and Mill Creek were operational, Ben answers “the 1800’s.”

His fellow club member David then adds “They were operational right up until World War II. You see, the logging companies were already switching over from railways to trucks and when World War II hit, they disassembled all the tracks and engines to be melted down and repurposed to support the war effort.”

While it’s unfortunate the tracks that used to roll through these parts have since been pulled up and repurposed to fuel the war machine, it’s nice to know their history is being preserved by enthusi-

OBITUARIES John A. Fehling 1936-2022

John A. Fehling was born August 13, 1936, to John and Katherine Fehling in French Camp, California, and raised in the Stockton and Lodi area. He was the eldest of four children. Married to the light of his life, Irene (Gardea) Fehling for over 63 years, they started their family of three children in Stockton, California.

John was a California State Park Ranger and derived much pride and satisfaction from his 30year career. He moved his family to some of the most beautiful parks in all of California, from as far south as Ventura and far north as Del Norte County. John was admired and respected for the work he did as he promoted through the ranks of the department, from Ranger to Superintendent.

His son Michael followed in his footsteps.

John provided mentorship to new rangers which made it common to have an extra

guest at the dinner table.

John was an avid hunter and fisherman and passed his passion on to his two sons. Some of his fondest memories were made in the great outdoors with his boys. He was also known as a storyteller who could easily capture the attention of his audience and fully engage them in the tale he was telling. Often, they were tall tales that ended with a punchline that left everyone laughing, even his family who heard the stories multiple times! There was still joy in watching it unfold and the reaction of his audience. He had a profound impact on many people during his lifetime as he played various roles such as coach, mentor, friend, husband, father and Papa. He provided a safe and secure foundation that allowed his family to grow and flourish with the confidence that they could achieve anything they desired.

John is predeceased by

Blair Buzzini-Schweikl 11/7/1950 - 7/30/2022

Blair Schweikl passed away Saturday, July 30, 2022, in Meridian, Idaho at the home of her daughter.

Born Mary Blair Buzzini on November 7, 1950, in Crescent City to Melvin and Ernestine (Nelson) Buzzini.

She attended St Joseph’s Catholic School and Del Norte High School, graduating in 1969.

At the age of 10 she saw 15-year-old Nolan “Pogie” Schweikl working at her dad’s Shell service station, on the corner of 9th Street and Highway 101, she said to her mother that she was going to marry that man someday. Her mother was not too pleased to hear these words from her young daughter, but 9 years later she did just that. Pogie and Blair were married on April 10, 1970, in Crescent City.

To this union were born four children: Eric, Regina, Scott, and Amy. They lived in Crescent City until 1983.

Pogie’s work took them out of the area, finally settling in Cloverdale where they raised their family.

Blair was active in her children’s lives and was well known among the young people in Cloverdale. She began working at Washington School as a cafeteria aide, but soon became the face you saw at all the schools.

She worked in the office, the classroom, the cafeteria, the playground and anywhere else she was needed. She loved working

with kids and has so many fond memories of them.

However, her fondest memories were from the many friends of her children.

One of those friends said it best when he wrote, “The door was always open, you could always find food for your belly, love for your heart, laughs for your soul, wisdom for your growth and a cocker spaniel or two for your lap.”

Blair is preceded in death by her husband Nolan and her parents Melvin and Ernestine Buzzini. She is survived by her children, Eric Schweikl, of Cloverdale; Regina Farris (Bob) of Meridian, Idaho; Scott Schweikl (Mishel), of Cloverdale; and Amy Dale (Tom) of Healdsburg; and her brother Richard Buzzini of McKinleyville. Grandchildren Cheyenne and Monet Palmer, Gradin and Astrea Schweikl, Clayton, Sage and Erica Farris, TJ, and Cole Dale. She also leaves behind many nieces and nephews that she loved like her own.

A celebration of life will be held on September 10, 2022, at the Veterans Memorial Building, 205 W 1st St, Cloverdale, CA 95425.

Cheery attire requested. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to your favorite animal rescue organization.

Celebration of Life will be held Sept. 10th, 2 pm to 5 pm, Cloverdale Veterans Building, 205 W 1st St, Cloverdale, CA 95425.

was taken into custody without incident. One of the K-9s later alerted the presence of narcotics and a search of passenger Gonzalez produced 5.6 grams of methamphetamine.

Sutherland and Gonzalez were lodged at the Curry County Jail.

Sutherland is facing charges of contempt of court for violating a court order restraining order, attempting to elude a police officer, unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, theft in the first degree and theft in the third degree. Gonzalez is facing charges of attempting to elude a police officer, unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, theft in the first degree, theft in the third degree and unlawful possession of methamphetamine.

Andre Gonzalez, 40, ran from the vehicle.

Deputy Moore was reportedly quickly able to catch up to Gonzalez and detained him, but Sutherland was able to get away, according the release.

Additional Curry County deputies, an officer from the Brookings Police Department and an Oregon State trooper assisted with the search and a perimeter was set up around the area.

Law enforcement K-9 dogs Nero and Striker joined in the search and helped locate Sutherland, who was hiding in a locked storage area. Sutherland

from the left Information on View Four days at the county fair Monkeypox in Del Norte County

By DR. AARON STUTZ Public health officer

Dear Community members, As many of you already know, last week Humboldt County detected its first confirmed case of Monkeypox after many cases having been detected nationwide. While we like to believe that we are somewhat protected against these infectious diseases given our remote and rural surroundings, as we saw with COVID-19 the reality is that these illnesses will reach our area eventually.

Fortunately, there are some characteristics of this latest viral threat that make it easier to manage than COVID-19: 1. Monkeypox is spread by skin-to-skin contact or through sharing items (clothing, bedding, towels) with an infected individual. It can also be spread through close interactions with infected individuals though this mainly happens when living or caring for someone with symptoms. Monkeypox also has a good prognosis and is rarely fatal.

2. There already exists a vaccine that protects against Monkeypox infection, Jynneos. This was developed and stockpiled prior to this outbreak of Monkeypox and is also used to protect against the related virus, Smallpox. The vaccine is available in limited quantities to counties nationwide to respond to outbreaks and exposure events, as well as for inoculation of people who are at risk of contracting Monkeypox. We have not yet been allocated the vaccine due to our small jurisdiction with no active Monkeypox cases, however we anticipate in the upcoming weeks having some doses available.

3. An antiviral drug, Tpoxx (tecovirimat), was also stockpiled by the federal government in the event of an outbreak of orthopox viruses. This drug has activity against Monkeypox and is available in limited quantities for patients diagnosed with Monkeypox.

4. Accurate testing for Monkeypox is already available.

It’s worth noting that we are again confronted with an infectious disease that has been prevalent enough to garner news attention nationwide, and that the scientific community has already prepared a response in the form of a highly-effective vaccine and antiviral medication. Infectious diseases are a fact of life and even if they may rarely cause mortality in our otherwise healthy community, it is still wise to protect ourselves against preventable disease. Importantly, diseases have no political affiliation and the most effective way to avoid contracting them and passing them to other community members is to get vaccinated if you are at risk and to avoid behavior that will put you or others at risk.

If you believe you may have been exposed to or contracted Monkeypox, please seek a medical evaluation by a physician or local emergency department. Post-exposure prophylaxis with the vaccine can be provided in the case of a confirmed exposure, and therefore seeking medical attention early is of utmost importance.

For more information about Monkeypox, including symptoms and at-risk populations, please see the following links: • Q&A from CDPH: cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/Pages/Monkeypox-Questions-andAnswers.aspx • Information on Monkeypox from the CDC: cdc.gov/poxvirus/monkeypox/response/2022/index.html • Social gatherings and safer sex from the CDC: cdc.gov/poxvirus/monkeypox/specificsettings/social-gatherings.html

Letters to the Editor Only a woman’s choice In his most recent column spouting his pro forced birth beliefs, Mr. Gitlin asked those of us who “spew” our support for a woman’s right to choose, “Other than your own, is human life sacred”? If Mr. Gitlin is referring to all human life, I bluntly answer no.

For example, those heinous murderers Mr. Gitlin so desperately tries to say we on the pro choice side have compassion for, a ridiculous claim, no their lives are not sacred and they should be eliminated. While I do believe life begins at conception, I do not believe that life in the developing stage should be given the same rights as the woman carrying the fetus. Especially if the pregnancy is unwanted and/or unplanned.

Two cases that Mr. Gitlin calls “frivolous,” espousing a misogynistic view favored by the forced birth crowd. My very personal abortion story differs greatly from Mr. Gitlin’s.

A situation in the mid 1970s that solidified my pro choice stand and the lady who I escorted to the clinic amid shouts of “baby killers” and threats of our being condemned to their imaginary Hell.

Behind all those facts and figures Mr. Gitlin accurately provided are many varied and difficult situations for the women involved. Most I believe, not “frivolous.” Decisions that the women made for their own mental and physical health.

There is certainly room for debate on when the developing child should be saved at all costs other than the mother’s life.

But forcing a woman to birth a fetus and/or zygote that she doesn’t want, should be her choice only.

Rick McNamer Smith River

Get it right This character you allow to spout every week, is allowed the freedom of speech he claims. Roger Gitlin is not allowed to lie about how the Supreme Court voted on the abortion issue.

Chief Justice Roberts did not vote to completely overturn Roe vs. Wade. This means one justice decided to upset what has been the norm in this country for over fifty years.

Donald Johnson Crescent City

Last weekend, I spent four days at the county fair in the Democratic Party booth. Although I was very tired at the end, it was well worth the effort. I truly enjoyed talking to all the people that passed through.

I missed being at the fair last year. Due to the high number of COVID cases, we pulled the plug at the last minute and did not staff our booth. We did not want to be a part of a local super-spreader event. Though there is no way to prove that the fair was the cause, there was a dramatic increase in COVID cases and a few deaths in the weeks following the fair last year.

I am not sure that the risk was less this year, but I think my tolerance for risk is higher. As an added precaution, I decided to get my second COVID booster. This gave me more confidence that I would have added protection if I was exposed. Only time will tell whether this worked.

In our booth we had a banner that said “Protect the Right to Reproductive Freedom. Vote Yes on Prop 1” Proposition 1 is a ballot measure which will enshrine reproductive rights and freedoms into the California Constitution. This topic sparked a good deal of discussion.

Most people had not yet heard of Prop 1, but once we explained what it would do, there were no lack of opinions.

I had a couple of interactions that were especially noteworthy.

At one point I was talking to a well-known Republican activist who was decidedly pro-choice.

Based on her personal experience, she had a strong belief that each person must have the liberty to make their own reproductive

health care decisions While we were talking, a member of the Republican Central Committee stopped by and expressed her opposition to abortion and politely stated the reasons for her opinion. It was very interesting for me to listen and observe this discussion between these two Republican women.

This conversation exemplified the reality that this issue does not split along partisan lines. It is far more complicated than simple political considerations. What was most notable is that this discourse was very civil and respectful. This was the case with most of my encounters.

My position is that each person should be able to make their own choice regarding reproductive health decisions in consultation with their doctor and if desired with spiritual guidance. Freedom to choose and bodily autonomy are the primary issues. Imposing one’s religious belief on another is contrary to the spirit of our Constitution.

I have a friend who is Catholic and personally opposes abortion, but he made an excellent point regarding the right to choose. He said that he was taught that God gave people free will. Therefore, he believes that it is not appropriate for government to deny people’s free will.

The most challenging conversation I had was with a young woman who had very passionate feelings against abortion. I assumed that she was Catholic because she was wearing a t-shirt with the Virgin Mary on it. I knew that I would not change her mind and she would not change mine.

I unsuccessfully tried to diffuse this conflict by acknowledging that

we would not agree even if we continued talking.

However, she conKevin tinued her Hendrick verbal assault and told me that I was going to hell.

I usually can maintain a calm demeanor, but that’s when I lost my patience. I responded, “You don’t know me, and you are not qualified to judge me. Only God can judge me!” Only later did I remember the Bible verse to back me up, “Judge not, lest you be judged.”

There is absolutely no way around it, abortion is a very emotional issue. But every person must be guaranteed the privacy, rights and freedom to make health care decisions that are appropriate for them without government interference.

Existing California law declares that every individual possesses a fundamental right to privacy with respect to personal reproductive decisions and prohibits the state from denying or interfering with a person’s right to choose. Proposition 1 will amend the Constitution to strengthen these rights.

Every voter will have a chance to weigh in on this issue in November. There will be disagreements, but I hope that discussions will remain civil and respectful.

Everyone has a right to their opinion and will have a right to express their opinion by voting this proposition up or down.

Eye on Del Norte

National military recruitment woes continue but not in Del Norte Military recruitment in the all-volunteer armed forces continues to fall dangerously behind minimum national requirements.

Experts claim the problem is critical to national defense.

The Selective Service draft terminated 50 years ago in favor of the all-volunteer model utilized today. The recruitment efforts for enlisting are at an all-time low.

All five branches, Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force and Coast Guard all recruit from a volunteer pool of qualified candidates. A sixth branch of the military, The Space Force, can now be added to what appears to be this dwindling resource of qualified candidates.

To their credit, minimum requirements are being reached for the Marines, Air Force and Space Force.

The reasons for the chronic deficiency of attracting qualified recruits are varied and sundry. The military attributes the latest obstacle to the long-term effects associated with the COVID virus. Other reasons include the infinitesimally low 3.6 percent unemployment rate, the inability of recruiters to meet with applicants on campus, the increase in less than satisfactory reading and math scores, and a significant and growing percentage of applicants disqualified with felony convictions. The national level of qualified military applicants in the 17-34 year age group has dropped to 23 percent. The Army

recently waived the high school diploma requirement.

I’m happy to report Del Norte County has bucked this negative trend and is providing more than its fair share of military recruits.

The Army ‘s projection filling minimum entry level standards will reach about 455,000; that number is daunting considering the dangerous world in which we live. Much of the problem is cultural. When the Military went all-volunteer in 1973, the perception of serving was polar opposite a half-century later. Most recruits had a grandfather, father or uncle who served. That’s not the case today. The Army offers a $50,000 bonus for recruits who enlist for at least six years. The initial response to this financial incentive has been tepid.

The question begs to be asked: Why has Del Norte County been able to buck this disturbing trend?

The military offers some 150 career options with incredible life skills training.

Recruits can earn college degrees in both bachelor and master’s degree programs. The military will actually send qualified recruits to law school all expenses paid by the government, if you’re prepared to commit a least six years to military service. For a young recruit coming out of Del Norte High or other similar rural communities, the sky’s the limit.

The positive public perception

of military service is profound.

Those who are in uniRoger form or wear Gitlin a military branch cap or similar garb for past service are continually praised by appreciative members of the community with the comment,” Thank you for your service. “ Indeed, the competition for qualified candidates is keen; it’s most definitely a “recruit’s market.” Does the military seek to revisit compulsory service from 1973? As best I can tell, the answer to that question is no; however, the argument can be maintained that bringing back Selective Service for 18 year olds incentivizes American patriotism and commitment to public service.

I agree with that contention.

Depending on the ability for the military to climb out of this chasm and bolster our national defense, I’m of the opinion amending the all-volunteer model should be considered. In the meantime, those considering a military career would be well advised to seriously ponder this option. Be all you be.

THE NATURE, OBJECT, AND DESCRIPTION OF THE WEATHER MODIFICATION OPERATION: , Oannes Research and Development Corporation (ORDC) has invented, patented, tested, and insured the world’s first effective cloud making machine, which is called the Aquaelicium. It consists of a reaction chamber, lasers, piping, infrastructure, and a quantum physics formula. The Aquaelicium can add precipitation to a locality, desalinate salt water, purify contaminated water, and provide direct to pipe drinking water. It uses a new desalination technology to separate the salts out of sea water without any toxic brine waste. Its cloud making capabilities can prevent drought, famine, desertification, water scarcity, and climate change. The clouds it produces can bring rain on arid land and greatly increase yields and the amount of land which can be farmed and thereby increase a state’s and nation’s ability to feed and water its citizens. Direct to pipe water can be provided by adding a condensation chamber, which converts the vapor back to liquid water. The Aquaelicium and its infrastructure are far cheaper to build than a desalination plant, and it can produce up to 20 times the water volume of a desalination facility. The system can be run up to 20 hours per day or can customize the amount of clouds and water provided. ORDC will charge fees for fabrication, maintenance, and batch processing, but will donate the water and clouds produced for

Public Notices FREE. PROJECT PROPOSAL OF OANNES RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION: 1. Initially install an Aquaelicium in 2 locations in Oregon: One along the southern Oregon coast (for example in Brookings or Gold Beach) and the other in Klamath County (for example along the shore of Upper Klamath Lake.

2. Knowing that Oregon’s beaches are publicly owned, the intake pipe of the Aquaelicium can be buried under the sand or placed in a deep hole close to the shoreline, so that it is not an eyesore.

3. The coastal installation will desalinate ocean water and provide 2 products: clouds and direct to pipe drinkable fresh water.

4. The cloud production function will operate only when the prevailing wind direction is blowing from west to east, so that the clouds will move easterly and inland over southern Oregon.

5. As the coastal lowlands and coast range east of the southern Oregon coast become more moist from the increase in precipitation, the air will cool and become more humid and produce more clouds on its own, and the clouds will travel further and further east.

6. The direct to pipe portion of the project could provide the following possible subprojects: (a) tanker trucks could be filled with water from the Aquaelicium and be driven to Klamath County or elsewhere to be unloaded where needed; (b) a new water bottling company could be established to sell and distribute water to retail and commercial outlets in SW Oregon; (c) studies could be conducted evaluating the feasibility of the Aquaelicium becoming the source for municipal water purification, because the Aquaelicium purifies water without the use of dangerous chemicals; (d) part of the water from the Aquaelicium could be used to refill depleted aquifers.

7. The aquifer refill sub- project could include but not be limited to the following: (a) mapping the aquifers in the southern Oregon counties; (b) filling the aquifer closest to the coast first; (c) then filling the next aquifer to the east, and continuing eastward until the aquifers in Klamath County are reached.

8. Alternatively, a pipeline that spans between the Aqualicium on the Oregon coast all the way to Klamath County could be laid, so that the desalinated water could be pumped from the Oregon coast to Klamath County and further eastward on a regular basis.

9. The Klamath County portion of the project could include but not be limited to the following: (a) conducting water processing experiments in Upper Klamath Lake to evaluate whether the Aquaelicium can destroy the toxic algae and cyanide bacteria in the lake to make it safe for both the fish and for human water sports; (b) studies could be conducted evaluating the feasibility of the Aquaelicium becoming the source for municipal water purification in the cities of Klamath County, because the Aquaelicium purifies water without the use of dangerous chemicals.

10. All operations of the Aquaelicium in Curry County shall be subject to the rules in ORS Chapter 558: Weather Modification.

OTHER BENEFITS OF THE ABOVE PROJECT: 1. The increased precipitation will reduce the occurrence of forest fires.

2. It will increase yields on existing farms and open new areas that can be farmed.

3. It will provide an inexhaustible new source of fresh water (the Pacific Ocean), which can be trucked or piped to wherever it is needed in Oregon.

4. It will provide an inexhaustible source of fresh water to refill aquifers, so that farmers can increase irrigation and provide plenty of drinking water for their livestock.

5. It will provide a vital resource for farmers to prosper, and it will decrease the number of bankruptcies and forced farm sales among Oregon’s farmers.

6. The Aquaelicium produces Plasma Activated Water, which has proven purifying and healing properties.

7.

The installations of Aquaeliciums will increase local job opportunities, because ORDC will hire local contractors and subcontractors to build the infrastructure at the installation sites.

METHODS, EQUIPMENT, AND MATERIALS TO BE USED: 1. Approximately 20 Acres of land, on which to install the infrastructure. The site could be along the ocean shoreline or within a bay or a short distance upriver from a river’s flow into the ocean and within the tidewater zone.

2. One Aquaelicium vapor production chamber, made from sandwiched layers of highly

DEL NORTE TRIPLICATE

Classifieds 15957 US Hwy 101, Brookings OR 97415

999

Public Notices rated and strengthened heat resistant materials: Tungsten, Molybdenom, Astroquartz, Graphite, Frit Ceramic, Niobium, and Titanium, outfitted with a laser rack within the chamber.

3. In Model A 4 blue-violet spectrum lasers, 488nm 1000mW Blue Fiber Coupled Laser CW/Modulation. Viewing these lasers with the naked eye results in immediate blindness; and touching the vapor escaping from the reaction chamber results in severe burns. Therefore, the site is security fenced and has on-site guards, the reaction chamber is housed inside an exterior shell building to prevent unauthorized access, and the Aquaulicium is run remotely.

4. A metal condensation chamber to convert the vapor back to liquid water.

5. Several high-volume water pumps, with a combined capacity of 50 million gallons per hour maximum.

6.

Two 50-million-gallon reservoirs, one for the salt water raw material, with one aperture access into the Aquaelicium vapor production chamber, and the other reservoir for collecting the fresh water produced by the Aquaelicium.

7. Piping from the ocean to the saltwater reservoir, from the saltwater reservoir to the Aquaelicium, and from the Aquaelicium to the fresh water reservoir.

8. One exterior shell building around the Aquaelicium, anchored to a concrete foundation, to protect and steady the vapor production assembly from the extreme conditions within.

9. Wifi/Bluetooth control with satellite communications and observation systems for direct command and control over all sites, in real time, without giving any direct control to individual sites.

10. Security systems and cyber security systems, with secondary redundant system for emergency control, all composed of CCTV/thermal imaging for low visibility operation, point of entry facial recognition, encryption, secure coded, along with alert systems and alarms.

11. Security fencing around the entire infrastructure, along with a gate and guard house.

12. A road to and within the infrastructure site.

13. Electricity, sewer, and water to and within the site to power the Aquaelicium and provide utilities for the guards.

14. The flowchart of the methods of operation will be as follows: (a) salt water will be pumped from the ocean into the salt water reservoir; (b) the salt water reservoir is slightly higher than the reaction chamber, and the salt water will flow from the salt water reservoir to the reaction chamber when the aperture is opened; (c) the lasers in the reaction chamber vaporize the salt water and separate the salts from the water vapor; (d) the vapors are released from the open top of the reaction chamber as clouds, or the vapors are collected in the condensation chamber and converted back to liquid fresh water; (e) the condensation chamber empties the condensed water into the fresh water reservoir; and (f) the fresh water in the fresh water reservoir flows into the municipal water system, and/or is pumped into tanker trucks to be transported to Klamath County or wherever needed.

LOCATIONS AND TIMES OF OPERATION: 1. The specific location has not been selected and approved yet. However, any coastal city or town in Curry County will be suitable, especially a town located in a bay or at a river delta. Under the guidance of a hydrologist and engineer the intake pipe from the ocean to the saltwater reservoir will be installed underground and underwater, so that it will not be a visible eyesore.

2. The times of operation will be customizable to the needs of the municipality and any other government entities which will be involved with or served by the operation of the Aquaelicium. A one hour run or batch produces approximately 48,000,000 gallons of water.

3. The maximum operational time is 20 hours per day, based on the following repeating cycle: 4 one-hour batches, then 1 hour to conduct maintenance inspections on all components and make any needed repairs.

4. One other variable factor which affects the timing of operations is weather conditions. Cloud production will only be done when the prevailing wind direction is from the west, so that the clouds produced will be blown inland.

Cloud production will not be done during storms or during natural precipitation events, in order to protect the public from storm damage. Satellite monitoring of the weather will provide the data to make prudent operation timing decisions. Direct to pipe water

999

Public Notices production can be done nearly constantly, under most weather conditions.

THE AREA(S) AFFECTED BY THE OPERATION OF THE AQUAELICIUM 1. Curry County will experience an increase in precipitation, both along the coast and in the foothills and Coast Range.

2. Josephine County and then Jackson County will gradually experience more precipitation as well.

3. If the west to east aquifer filling project is taken on, then Curry, Josephine, Jackson, and Klamath Counties will see an increase in available ground water.

Notice of Pacific Power’s Request to Increase Your Rates for the Energy Cost Adjustment Clause and Greenhouse Gas Allowance Costs and Revenues for 2023 Application (A.22-08-001) WHY AM I RECEIVING THIS NOTICE? On August 1, 2022, Pacific Power filed an application with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) requesting an overall increase to electric rates. This application addressed the Energy Cost Adjustment Clause (ECAC), greenhouse gas (GHG) allowance costs, and the California Climate Credit.

If this application is approved, this would result in a rate increase of $14.5 million or 13.6%, effective January 1, 2023. This will impact your monthly bill.

WHY IS PACIFIC POWER REQUESTING THIS RATE INCREASE? • Annually, Pacific Power compares actual and forecast costs of providing electricity to customers (ECAC rate) and the costs of purchasing GHG allowances to comply with the California Cap and Trade program, established as part of the state’s Global Warming Solutions Act (GHG rate).

• The ECAC rate allows Pacific Power to recover costs related to producing electricity such as fuel expenses, power purchased from third parties, and energy transmission expenses. This application requests an ECAC rate increase of $3.8 million due to power costs being more than the amount of revenue collected in current rates to cover those costs.

HOW DOES THE REST OF THIS PROCESS WORK? This application will be assigned to a CPUC Administrative Law Judge who will consider proposals and evidence presented during the formal hearing process.

The Administrative Law Judge will issue a proposed decision that may adopt Pacific Power’s application, modify it, or deny it. Any CPUC Commissioner may sponsor an alternate decision with a different outcome. The proposed decision, and any alternate decisions, will be discussed and voted upon by the CPUC Commissioners at a public CPUC Voting Meeting.

Parties to the proceeding may review Pacific Power’s application, including the Public Advocates Office. The Public Advocates Office is an independent consumer advocate within the CPUC that represents customers to obtain the lowest possible rate for service consistent with reliable and safe service levels. For more information about the Public Advocates Office, please call 1-415-703-1584, email PublicAdvocatesOffice@cpuc.ca.gov, or visit PublicAdvocates.cpuc.ca.gov.

WHERE CAN I GET MORE INFORMATION? Contact Pacific Power Phone: 1-888-221-7070

• The GHG rate allows Pacific Power the opportunity to recover costs related to purchasing allowances to comply with the state’s Cap and Trade program. This application requests a GHG rate increase of $10.7 million due to actual allowance costs being higher than previously forecasted.

Mail:

• This application also requests approval for Pacific Power customers to receive the California Climate Credit on their bills, resulting from the sale of greenhouse gas allowances. If approved, residential and small business customers will receive a credit of $268.56 twice, in April and October 2023.

A copy of the Application and any related documents may also be reviewed at https://www.pacificpower.net/about/rates-regulation/california-regulatoryfilings.html.

This application will be reviewed by the CPUC to determine if the costs are reasonable and eligible for recovery from customers before any rate increase is potentially approved.

HOW COULD THIS AFFECT MY MONTHLY ELECTRIC RATES? If Pacific Power’s rate request is approved by the CPUC, the average residential monthly bill using 850 kWh per month would increase by approximately $17.29 or 13.5% per month in 2023. A summary of the estimated rate impact is provided below. This table does not include the Climate Credit which will be provided to customers.

Squishee’) and brought to the community by the Insider of S. Oregon Entertainment Newspaper, the event was designed to bring something back to the area

for the support Ellis received in getting the Insider of S.O started (now in its 13th year) from the local businesses, residents and tourists. The Pirate Fest not only brings revenue to Brookings Harbor, but also to Crescent City and Gold Beach, filling hotels and bringing customers to local businesses and establishments in all of these cities and surrounding areas as well.

Last year, Crissy Cooper (Capt.

Esmeralda) came onboard to help out and this trio along with the many behind the scenes people have managed to make this the highlight event of the year complete with an ocean view.

The Pirates of the Pacific Festival brings in over 20,000 locals and tourists to the Port each year, and is pirate fun for the entire family.

Lucy

Hauser

Lucy came in as a stray and has made tremendous progress since her arrival. She went from cowering in her kennel to being excited for her daily walks. She’s still a little nervous around strangers, but after bit, she loves the attention. She enjoys her walks, toys, and treats. She needs someone who would be patient with her skepticism in new environments.

Hauser isn’t so friendly after being live trapped in the Hauser area. We will give this kitty time to adjust before we mess with it.

We are not sure if it’s a boy or girl, but it is out of the elements and inside where it is warm and safe. Hauser’s shots are up to date, they are fixed, and does seem good with other cats.

Kohls Cat House The cat house is open for adoptions on site from 8am to 10am and 3pm to 4pm. Call if you need a different time slot. They can also be seen on Kohl’s Kitty Kare Facebook page and kohlscats.info/about-us/ Patience will be required as they settle in and get used to new surroundings before cozying up to their new human companion. Only time will tell if they will fit into their new situation when they are adopted. It really is no different for human kids.

Patience goes such a long way to benefit all involved.

Toasty

Have You Lost a Pet? Have You Found a Pet?

Toasty is a Pit Bull mix, with a large heart. He can be shy at first but once he’s comfortable, he goes into full puppy play mode!

He will need someone who can work on his manners and commands but he is eager to please and learns quickly.

Toasty likes to play with other dogs and may do well in a home with other friends to grow with.

Want to Adopt a Pet?

Let us know about it!

Call (707) 464-7235 for more info. Find more dogs for adoption at Dogs of Del Norte County Facebook page.
