BY BREEANA LAUGHLIN The Triplicate David Alan Shinkle vividly remembers the day he lost his grandfather. It was 50 years ago – on Aug. 16, 1972 – a day that would change the course of his life. It was the day a tragic storm took the lives of 13 ﬁshermen in PelicanShinkle,Bay.like many young men and women, had the pleasure of spending summers with his grandparents. He remembers beachcombing, shooting guns and just doing the things that young boysWhendo. he was a teenager, he started ﬁshing with his grandfather – Clayton Dooley. Dooley was captain of the “Dixie Lee,” a 35-foot diesel-powered trawler based out of Brookings. Shin-

kle took to commercial fishing quickly – so much so that at only 16 years old, he was planning to make a career of it. “I was going to go to a vocational school and go to a navigation course to get my captains license,” Shinkle said. But it wasn’t to be. When he and his grandfather left the Brookings boat basin early the morning of the storm, the skies were overcast and it was lightly raining. They headed south toward the Saint George Reef Lighthouse and were salmon fishing for several hours when things took a sudden and swift turn for the worst. A tuna boat captain notified boats in the area on the citizens’ hand-radio that strong winds were coming in. “We thought it was better to head on in before that thing hit,” Shinkle said. “We got all the way in and were tacking toward the Photo by Breeana Laughlin/The Triplicate Pelican Bay storm survivor David Alan Shinkle, visited a memorial at the Brookings Harbor with his grandfather’s name on it on Friday, Aug. 12. Clayton Dooley was one of 13 people who died August 16, 1972. Survivor remembers Pelican Bay storm tragedy 50 years later

The Tough Truck contest is an obstacle course and timed event to prove who has the fastest and toughest truck, to survive the course event. The first place prize was $1,000, a trophy and bragging rights. Kelley and his co-pilot navigator (Bailee Drown) are from Crescent City and were sponsored by “Lawn and Order” landscaping, Crescent City ACE hardware and Two Guys. There were 19 entries with only five vehicles surviving to the final heat race. But in the end, Kelley stood alone as the toughest of the Tough Truck competitors.

The city council of Crescent City voted unanimously to support a potential affordable housing project in the city, authorizing Mayor Jason Greenough to sign a letter supporting Battery PointTheApartments.letterwasat the request of Synergy Community Development Corp., which is hoping to build the apartment complex on a lot between E Street and Gary Street.The plan currently calls for 120 affordable-housing and

Rice explained if the company can get the infrastructure grant, it will be in a very good position to get other levels of support to build the “We’vecomplex.beenlooking very much for a parcel in the city that can be developed for housing and seniors,” Rice said. “We’ve been looking at the data and a new project that can benefit families and seniors has not been successful for more than a decade.” Rice said the key to making the development affordable is finding outside funding such as the grant and state credits that are offered to a small number of projects every year. “If we’re successful in getting that financing, it works kind of like a magnet,” Rice said. “The state likes to support ideas that have public support and have funding behind it.” Rice said if the grant application is successful, Synergy would apply for state tax credits next year.After hearing about the plans, the council was strongly in support.“I’mexcited about it,” Councilman Blake Inscore said. “I appreciate the vision you and Synergy have for our community. I appreciate seeing all the work that’s been done. It looks fantastic. I want to thank you for the work you are doing, and the investment you are making in our“Icommunity.”supportthis project wholeheartedly because there’s such a need in our community for all kinds of housing,” Mayor Jason Greenough said. “There’s a huge need for housing in this community, so thank you for stepping up with this project.” After the discussion, the council voted unanimously to support the project.

The teen-aged boy and his grandfather were forced to hold on to each other in the ocean with only their lifejackets as the storm rolled on. “A Coast Guard boat came by and didn’t see us because it was so misty and stormy, another boat came and about ran over us – and I believe that was another boat that flipped in the surf,” Shinkle said. “The survivability from hypothermia in the water is about two to three hours at the most – that is what grandpa lasted. But I had on my rain gear and my rubber boots because it was raining.

An excerpt from the book Disasters of the Northwest states: “It was a freak storm if ever there was one, and some 69 commercial and sport-fish ing boats lay directly in the storm’s path, most without a clue of what was coming. And most had little chance to outrun it even if they tried.”Amonument stands in honor of those who lost their lives in Pelican Bay Storm just outside the Coast Guard headquarters at the Port of Brookings Harbor.

CR currently has 13 athletic teams for men and women and come 202324, CR will be adding two additional programs. “The event was extremely successful, and not just because of the funds raised for our athletics program, but also because our supporters had an opportunity to interact with our student athletes.”

James “Jim” Merlin Goodlin was born in Crescent City, California on February 1, 1944, and passed into heaven July 2, 2022, with his wife Joanne and daughter Teresa by his bedside at Curry General Hospital in Gold Beach, Oregon after a long illness of Parkinson’s, Lymphocytic Leukemia, and dementia. His friends and family will remember his passion for growing delicious tomatoes and other tasty veggies; his love of gardening fishing, especially in his beloved Smith River and most anything outdoors and of course his clamming. Jim was also a prolific reader. He will be terribly missed, always loved, and never forgotten. May he rest in peace. Jim was preceded in death by his parents Merlin and Minnie Goodlin, brother John Goodlin, in-laws Charlie and Ruth Irwin and sister-in-law Eileen Beleele, as well as several beloved pets. He is survived by his wife of 60 years Joanne and daughter Teresa Goodlin, sister-in- law Sherry “Sis” Goodlin as well as several nieces and nephews.

I suspect the regular readers of the Triplicate have noticed over the last few weeks, the name of Daniel J. Schmidt has not appeared in theOverpaper.the last few weeks, we have received several phone calls and emails, ask ing what happened to Dan, so I wanted to clear some things up.First of all, Dan was not fired. When we hired him, he admitted he was going to write some stories and col umns that might fire up some of our readers. And he did exactly that. While neither I, my boss or Country Media agreed with everything Dan wrote, at no time did we ask him to take a step back and at no time did we tell him any topic was off limits.Dan used the opinion page in the Triplicate to share his views on abortion, one of the most hotly-debated topics in the nation. His views were rigid and are not something he is willing to or going to change. Again, his views are not something our compa ny has stated, but we never asked Dan to stop writing about the issue, and we certainly didn’t punish him in any way for doing so.The opinion page of this paper is designed as a place where people can take stands on controversial issues. Whether it’s the editor, one of our columnists or letters from our readers, we welcome differing opinions on local, state and even some national issues. That has not made all of our readers happy, because many believe anyone who disagrees with them should be removed from print. We don’t, so we welcome all sides of controversial issues. Several weeks ago, Dan reached out to me telling me he had to resign due to personal issues in his family. I can’t give you all the details, but I can assure you, they were important to Dan, important enough for him to give up a job he gave his all to while he was here. It is my understanding that Dan still has plans to make Cres cent City his home, although he does have family, personal and business dealings in other parts of the state. From a newspaper perspective, Dan Schmidt is an old-fash ioned news guy. Before a career in law, he ran several newspa pers in California. Much like me, when his name is on a paper, he feels an enormous responsibility to put out a good product that will inspire, motivate and sometimes, anger, the readers. At the Triplicate, Dan did just that. Many of the changes he made have carried forward to the paper you are reading today and will be reading in the future. This is just my opinion, but I believe once Dan gets settled you will see him being active in Crescent City. Exactly what role he chooses to do that in, I don’t know. But I can’t imagine he will sit on the sidelines too long, when he has a dream of helping the city move toward great things. As for the Triplicate, we will move forward. We will continue to do our best to share the news, advertising and, yes, opinions, that are important to Del Norte County. Without Dan, things will be different, but our goal is the same one he had, to share with our readers news that’s important to you. If you know of any stories we should be chasing down, feel free to reach out to me directly at worldeditor@countrymedia. net.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: My Turn.....

Where did Dan go? Updating our readersDavid

It’s a column about

Rupkalvis Executive editor, Del Norte Triplicate For the past 16 months, I’ve observed operations at the Crescent City-Del Norte County Harbor. My one word description of the Harbor District is: DISAP POINTMENT.Myoriginal interest in Harbor operations involved the factual lack of any appreciable progress on inner harbor basin dredging in and around the Fashion Black smith pier. From that observation, I discovered many disturbing irregularities of unethical ne gotiations, misappropriation of public funds, inappropriate and rude public interaction from the harbormaster, a highly question able sub-leasing agreement with a solar power venture capitalist investment group, locked public restrooms and a general unkept public appearance of the Harbor. The Harbor is a district, its own governance, a board of five elected commissioners who oversee all aspects of Harbor operations. The five commissioners are: Rick Shepherd, President/Commission er; Harry Adams, Secretary/Com missioner; Wes White (past presi dent), Commissioner; Brian Stone (past president), Commissioner; Gerhard Weber, Commissioner; The harbormaster is Tim Pet rick, appointed by the commis sion. Commissioners White and Stone have the longest tenure and in my opinion, have set an unsavory tone in creating a 5-0 rubberstamp board leading me to find suspect operations which do not benefit the public or harbor tenants.Thegeneral appearance of the harbor until very recently has been an eyesore. Many complaints of closed public restrooms and long-standing public feces outside those closed toilets have come to the community’s attention. One individual who contacted me requesting anonymity, contacted Harbormaster Petrick about the closed public restrooms and was, allegedly, confronted with, in his words, “… rude, condescending, indifferent behavior” by Har bormaster Petrick and was told restrooms were for moorage vessel tenants, ONLY.” Public restrooms are reserved for harbor tenants ONLY? I think not. The laun dry list of questionable behavior continues:Thesad saga of the Towe family was another tragic case of Har bor Commissioners acting in bad faith. The Towe family owned and operated the Harbor RV Anchor age from 1977-2017. Kenneth and Rachel Towe invested substan tial capital initially and over the decades more funds to improve the park and building their business. Ken passed away a few years ago. His widow was considering selling Anchorage and recouping her investment.Ms.Towe actually found several interested buyers; however, com missioners reportedly instructed then-Harbormaster Richard Young to discourage the prospective, interested parties from moving forward with a purchase, accord ing to Ms. Towe. This peculiar behavior by the commission sent an ominous mixed message to Ms. Towe and to any interested parties: “Hands off the Anchorage RV Park.“ The harbor apparently had other (unannounced) plans for the property. Ms. Towe also attempted to renegotiate the Anchorage lease, but to no avail. Then-Harbormas ter Young was unresponsive and uncooperative in negotiation with Ms. Towe. The harbormaster and commissioners dragged their feet, allowing the lease to terminate, then, shockingly, expropriated the property with zero compensation to Ms. Towe. The harbormaster even retained the Towe’s business telephone phone number with out Ms. Towe’s permission. The Harbor Commission simply took possession of the property. The wearing of two hats by the Harbor Commission, one as landlord, the other as business liquidator was and is clearly unethical and possi bly illegal. Failure of this govern ment agency in unceremoniously taking this business was clearly wrong. A tenant could build a robust, viable business only to have that long-standing business usurped by unscrupulous individ uals operating under the cloak of government.TheBoard of Supervisors voted to place on the ballot two years ago, a 20 percent increase on the OccupancyTransient Tax. Voters passed the tax increase and the BOS voted 4-1, your’s truly dissenting, to transfer those additional proceeds to assist the harbor now claiming to be in financial straits and attempting to retire 2011 Tsunami-created debt. During this same chaotic era, the Harbor Commission purchased the adjoining privately held Bayside RV Park for $600,000, upon acquiring the balance of the Bayside lease. The results were the same. Via a long-term ground lease, both Anchorage and Bayside were transferred to Renewable Energy Partners venture capitalist and principal, Alex Lemus, in return for Pacific Power solar grid credits. At present, evictions have begun at both parks on a dozen cases. The harbor is paying attorneys $3,000-$5,000 of public money per eviction with zero cost to the Lemus group. The relationship with longterm tenant Fashion Blacksmith is similarly very suspect. The Harbor District-owned structure is in ramshackle condition. State inspectors have recently com pleted a structure review on the verge of possible condemnation. The report is pending. Years-old, gaping holes on the north-facing building have yet to be addressed or repaired despite many requests by Fashion to have the conditions mitigated. Constant foot dragging by Harbormaster Petrick is not only disheartening but in sync with his long-standing disdain and indifference to Fashion Black smith. A recent email from Petrick to commissioners disclosed long-standing personal animus toward Fashion Blacksmith, far exceeding any modicum of a normal business relationship. One must ask why the harbor has been so derelict in responding to a tenant’s needs. Do commissioners have other plans for the dilapidat ed building presently occupied by Fashion? Since mid-2015, Fashion Blacksmith principals have pleaded with the Harbor to dredge View from the left I feel a little like I am in politi cal limbo. The filing deadlines for two school board seats and two city council positions have been extended until Wednesday August 17, because the incumbents have chosen not to run. As I write this, I don’t know who all is running. By the time you read this, we will know who has filed for these important positions. Maybe next week, I can provide more details on what happened. Since I have nothing new to report about local campaigns, it occurred to me that I could write a column about nothing. You know like in the old Seinfeld episode when George and Jerry were pitching a TV show about nothing. George says, “You got up and went to work today. That’s a show. It’s a show about nothing.” The challenge for me is writing 700 words about nothing. When Dan Schmidt first asked me to write this column, my goal was to write 500 words. Early on I stuck to this target. I was surprised that people who liked my column com plained that my counter-columnist was getting more ink than me. They thought it was so unfair, but I wasn’t concerned. Using more words doesn’t always add more clarity.Itry to keep my column shorter to increase the likelihood that people will read it. My word count began ballooning when I started writing about more complex sub jects. It just takes more words to provide background and discuss a complicated topic. I have enjoyed writing my column because it motivates me to drill down on the details of any subject that I choose to write about. I work hard to support my opinions with correct facts. Consequently, I have learned about a variety of subjects ranging from the Klamath Dam Removal to the Tri-Agency Economic Develop ment Authority. I believe that if I can help people be better informed then they will be more prepared to effectively participate in the civic process that often defines the future of our community. I have also received comments on the title of my column from friends and supporters. They thought it was an insult to me that the newspaper named my col umn “View from the Left.” They observed that my comments and opinions are not leftist. For the most part this is true. But the extremist flank of the conservative party has moved so far to the right that there is a wide spectrum available to the left of this.In any case, I explain to my friends that I chose the title of my column, and I am comfortable with it. Besides it is too late to change now. If I called it some thing else, how would you find my column? We all owe a debt of gratitude to my wife, Jill Dovre who has edited every column I’ve written. After I have finished readable.andmakecommentsitJillonmyorganizingthoughtspaper,willreadandoffertoitclearermoreNotonly does she cor rect typos, punctuation and spell ing, but she very often contributes to my thought process when I am writing about policy issues. Her perspective helps me to be more precise in my statements. I give Jill credit for helping to maintain quality control on my journalistic production line. This is the 21st column that I have had published in the Trip licate, and only two typos have slipped through. Both times I was missing the word “a”, as in “a” typo.Iappreciate it when readers contact me with comments on my column. So far, all the comments have been supportive. I am grate ful that the Triplicate provides me a forum to share my thoughts or lack of Thankthoughts.youall for continuing to read this column about noth ing. Next week I will write about something.

Notice is hereby given by the person whose name appears hereon of their intention to circulate the petition within the Crescent Fire Protection District located in Del Norte County for the purpose of submitting an initiative measure to the vote of the people. A Statement of Reasons of the proposed action as contemplated in the petition is as follows: Voters of the Crescent Fire Protection District Ordinance No. 21-001 and adopted on July 12, 2021, approved the increase by less than one vote or $17.80. YES votes 50.01% and NO votes 49.99%. *Currently we have high unemployment, high taxes, high gas prices, and inflated food costs making it harder economically to exist. *While having fire protection is important, this tax was not thought out well. This tax has no ending. But it does have a cost of living increase built in. It also has language to pay three (3) fire captains and one (1) fire chief all with six (6) figure incomes within five years. *Many people did not receive their ballots including, unbelievably, Crescent City Harbor. The Harbor has a lawsuit against the Fire District. *This was not passed by popular vote but rather won by ¼ of a vote equating to $17.80 after giving multi- family property owners weighted ballots! Instead of paying $74/year per property, multi-property owners get a reduced rate per property equaling $1,000 flat fee. In one instance, that means a discount of over $8,000. *The Fire Protection District boasts of going out on more calls, but the majority of those calls are not even fire related! *We have learned that they are out of compliance as they do not have a Citizens Oversight Committee established yet.

THE NATURE, OBJECT, AND DESCRIPTION OF THE WEATHER MODIFICATION OannesOPERATION: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 PROJECTFREE.

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.

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 METHODS,sites. 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 rated and strengthened heat resistant materials: Tungsten, Molybdenom, Astroquartz, Graphite, Frit Ceramic, Niobium, and Titanium, outfitted with a laser rack within the 3.chamber.InModel 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.

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 production can be done nearly constantly, under most weather THEconditions.AREA(S) AFFECTED BY THE OPERATION OF THE 1.AQUAELICIUMCurryCounty 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 THEwater.TIME AND PLACE OF THE CURRY COUNTY PUBLIC DateHEARINGandTime: August 22,2022 at 4:00 PM Place: Curry Soil and Water Conservation District Office 29286 Ellensburg Ave., Gold Beach, OR Virtual/E-mail:97444This public hearing will also be available virtually for listening and public comment.

By Steve LundeBerg Guest Article Oregon State University scientists are proposing management changes on western federal lands that they say would result in more wolves and beavers and would re-establish ecological processes. In a paper published today in inportionsotherWilliamWest,”“RewildingBioScience,theAmericanco-leadauthorRippleand19authorssuggestusingoffederallands11statestoestablisha network based on potential habitat for the gray wolf – an apex predator able to trigger powerful, wide spread ecological effects. In those states the authors identified areas, each at least 5,000 square kilometers, of contigu ous, federally managed lands containing prime wolf habitat. The states in the proposed West ern Rewilding Network, which would cover nearly 500,000 square kilometers, are Oregon, Washing ton, California, Nevada, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico and Utah. “It’s an ambitious idea, but the American West is going through an unprecedented period of converging crises includ ing extended drought and water scarcity, extreme heat waves, massive fires and loss of biodiversity,” said Ripple, distinguished professor of ecology in the OSU College of Forestry. Gray wolves were hunt ed to near extinction in the West but were reintroduced to parts of the northern Rocky Mountains and the Southwest starting in the 1990s through measures made possible by the En dangered Species Act. “Still, the gray wolf’s current range in those 11 states is only about 14% of its historical range,” said co-lead author Christo pher Wolf, a postdoctoral scholar in the College of Forestry. “They probably once numbered in the tens of thousands, but today there might only be 3,500 wolves across the entire West.”Beaver populations, once robust across the West, declined roughly 90% after settler colonial ism and are now nonex istent in many streams, meaning ecosystem services are going unpro vided, the authors say. By felling trees and shrubs and constructing dams, beavers enrich fish habitat, increase water and sediment retention, main tain water flows during drought, improve water quality, increase carbon sequestration and gener ally improve habitat for riparian plant and animal species.“Beaver restoration is a cost-effective way to repair degraded riparian areas,” said co-author Robert Beschta, professor emeri tus in the OSU College of Forestry. “Riparian areas occupy less than 2% of the land in the West but pro vide habitat for up to 70% of wildlife Similarly,species.”wolfresto ration offers significant ecological benefits by help ing to naturally control na tive ungulates such as elk, according to the authors. They say wolves facilitate regrowth of vegetation spe cies such as aspen, which supports diverse plant and animal communities and is declining in the West. The paper includes a catalogue of 92 threatened and endangered plant and animal species that have at least 10% of their ranges within the proposed West ern Rewilding Network; for each species, threats from human activity were analyzed.Theauthors determined the most common threat was livestock grazing, which they say can cause stream and wetland degra dation, affect fire regimes and make it harder for woody species, especially willow, to regenerate. Nationally, about 2% of meat production results from federal grazing per mits, the paper notes. “We suggest the removal of grazing on federal allot ments from approximately 285,000 square kilome ters within the rewilding network, representing 29% of the total 985,000 square kilometers of federal lands in the 11 western states that are annually grazed,” Beschta said. “That means we need an economically and socially just federal compensation program for those who give up their grazing permits. Rewild ing will be most effective when participation con cerns for all stakeholders are considered, including Indigenous people and their governments.”

Last week, California Governor Newsom released his Water Supply Strategy, which is intended to guide and improve the state’s ability to adapt to a hotter, drier future. Leading cold-water conservation groups California Trout (CalTrout) and Trout Unlimited (TU) applauded the governor’s action but said the strategy must also articulate how it will address the worsening state of freshwater ecosystems, native ﬁsh populations, and recreational and commercial ﬁsheries. The strategy lays out a number of proposed actions to increase water supply, including developing new supplies, expanding storage capacity, reducing demand and improving forecasting, data, and management, including water rights modernization. Missing are actions to restore and protect streams and water vital for salmon, steelhead and trout. “While we applaud and agree with the governor’s focus on solving California’s aging water storage infrastructure problems, he left out a critical piece of nuance,” said Redgie Collins, CalTrout’s legal and policy director.

Del Norte County Animal Services Department has resolved theInmatter.mid-July, the identified dog owner, a resident of the 6400 block of Lake Earl Drive, was served with pre-seizure paperwork, which afforded him the opportunity to request a hearing by July 18. He failed to request the hearing.Assuch, the Animal Services Department moved forward with the next procedural steps. On August 10, a warrant was requested by Animal Services and issued by the Del Norte County Superior Court to seize the two remaining dogs given the dog owner failed to comply with the terms agreed upon in the previous settlement. Later that day, Animal Services and members of the Del Norte Sheriff’s Department appeared at the property to seize the dogs. The dogs are now in the custody of Animal Services.According to Director Justin Riggs, field Animal Services have recently become more stable due to the addition of an Animal Control supervisor and the professionalization of the animal control officer series, largely in part to the funding provided by measure R. The new animal services supervisor was instrumental in bringing the case to a conclusion and will be critical in the success of animal services goingCommissionerforward. Riggs greatly appreciates the patience of the public as this complicated process was executed. All the dogs have been removed from the property and the matter has been settled. Any questions regarding the situation may be directed to Commissioner Riggs at 707-464-7235 or jriggs@dnco.org.

the accumulated sand and mud at the Fashion pier, apparently to deaf ears. In 2020, tenant Fashion pleaded with then-Harbor president Stone for expedient dredging so Fashion could continue to serve the needs of larger vessel repair. Again, Stone and the board with what I can only describe as depraved indifference, was unresponsive to tenant Fashion, which has resulted in injuring this tenant’s on-going commerce and its ability to conduct effective business. The public word is out that ingress and egress for larger vessels in the inner harbor is inaccessible. Fashion has employed between 11-15 well-paid, skilled employees. Now a skeleton crew hangs on to the meager workload of small craft repairs. It gives me no solace to call out two ashavebehavior:blemycommissionersindividualwho,inopinion,areresponsi-forthisunacceptableWhiteandStoneabusedtheirpositionscommissioners.Both have been influential on the commission implementing policy compromising harbor tenants.

Harbormaster Petrick received a $9,900 bonus enhancement, in June. Outrageous! I rhetorically ask what success did Harbormaster Petrick realize in the months of tepid effort on the inner basin dredging issue? Candidly, no progress has been achieved. I hold all five commissioners responsible for squandering public funds on the lack of measurable results by employee Petrick.
