Shoshone Railroad Closed for Repairs

Winter was not kind to the railroad crossing in Shoshone and traffic has been getting slower and slower through town. This past week, a low-boy trailer took out one of the crossing plates causing a temporary closure at the Greenwood crossing. This week (May 16-18) Union Pacific Railroad Company will make repairs to address the aging infrastructure, including removing old steel tracks and replacing with new steel tracks, concrete slabs, and asphalt. Regular traffic will be detoured to other crossings in Shoshone while trucks will be detoured onto to other highways. The crossing reopen when work is complete by approximately 6 p.m. on Thursday.

ITD, Idaho State Police, and local law enforcement caution motorists to slow down and pay attention when driving in work zones, where increased speeding fines and other penalties apply. Motorists are encouraged to plan ahead and dial 5-1-1 or visit 511.idaho.gov for information on the state highway or interstate system.

F&G Commission Approves Wolf Management Plan

The Idaho Fish and Game Commission unanimously approved a new wolf management plan during its May 11 meeting in Jerome. The wolf plan drew roughly 2,500 comments during a 32day public comment period, and it will shape Idaho’s wolf management over the next six years by outlining goals and strategies to manage Idaho’s wolf population to fluctuate around 500 animals.

The plan calls for managing wolves in balance with other big game, particularly elk, and minimizing conflicts with livestock. It incorporates knowledge gained from nearly three decades of wolf monitoring, management and understanding how wolves interact with other game animals and livestock, and react to different levels and types of harvest.

Commissioner Don Ebert of Weippe, who recently took over as Commission chair, reflected on the decision by saying the Commission understands many people in Idaho don’t support killing wolves, which was reflected in public comments.

“I want those people to know I hear what they say, and I take it to heart,” he said. “I think all of us on the Commission give them due consideration, and I am the last person who wants to go out and kill all the wolves.” But he also noted wolves have recovered well beyond minimums outlined in the Endangered Species Act recovery plan, and current hunting, trapping and management actions have barely kept their populations in check.

The goal is to gradually reduce the wolf population while carefully...

Cup of Tee by Tee Hurd

© While frequenting a particular gas station, I had met a young couple who were both working at the gas station (convenience stop). They were living with his grandmother since getting a house was nearly out of the question. Even rentals weren't to be found.

A lot of tension seemed to be coming from all ends. Meal times weren't at a specific time due to everyone's schedules. I asked the young lady if she could cook. She told me she couldn't. I told her she needed to add some water to their relationship and schedules.

She looked at me and said, "Add WATER?? What are you talking about?" I said, "Big business adds water to make profits bigger, which makes them happier." I added, "For instance, have you ever noticed on a can of ham that it says water added?"

I continued my explanation, "You need to learn to cook, in fact, both of you do. Water is a life support in so many ways. Reduce some stress by adding some water. Cook some home cooked meals that you can sit and eat together. The shift work makes undo stress. If we can not eat together, leftovers or homemade cooking in a lunch box goes a long ways. The cooking starts with the heart."

"One of the easiest ways to do the learnto-cook thing is to make some soups. One of the main ingredients is... water. Once soup is served, drink water instead of soda."

"Hot springs can be physical relaxation. Sitting by running water such as a river or creek can bring spiritual and internal relaxation."

After talking to the gal months ago, I went to the store and bought a "Bear Creek" dry soup mix and gave her the soup mix. I told her the brand was good tasting and was a start in the process of cooking from scratch. I also told her that adding a little water was a good way to start many procedures that will become habits.

A few days ago I stopped in at the gas station when the young couple were working (I had been working out of their area and had not been in for a while). When I walked in the gal said, "Tee, where have you been? We haven't seen you in a long time." My answer was, "Working above Emmett, Idaho."

She was excited and asked, "Can you guess what's been happening since we saw you last?" I said, "Did you win the lottery?" "No, but close," she said. Her partner had gotten a job at another place and, "We are getting our own house and we close in ten days. And guess what else? We are having that soup you gave us earlier as our very first meal and I'm going to prepare it."

I was happy for the both of them. I didn't know adding water could make that much of a difference. Wait until they add water to their lawn and garden.

This is my "Cup of Tee" with a little more water.

GoFundMe for Mark & Sunny Tate

Friends of Mark & Sunny Tate have started a gofundme page to help them save their home. Put simply, this loving elderly couple living in a very rural community needs help. They have been generous and good, hard working, always hoping, and always giving thanks to God through all of their trials. Please show this sweet couple that their struggle is seen, whether through sharing or giving what you're able.

Sunny has fought breast cancer, thyroid cancer, and in her last bout of cancer, had one kidney removed. The doctors have just found cancer on her remaining kidney as well as in her pancreas. She falls often and has broken many bones in recent years. Her husband Mark, also living with a disability after being crushed between a pickup and steamroller in 2021, stopped working to care for her. As they continue to fight cancer, hospital and other bills have piled up, and they are facing the repossession of their home of 30 years this coming July 2023.

"I'd like to tell you a story before I place this in God's hands. Last year a member of Mark and Sunny's community passed away, and the family was going to be left unable to bury their loved one. The cemetery board in Fairfield, Idaho, didn't have the roads mapped out and completed, and as such, the funeral service could not be held. Mark, having access to a steamroller, pulled together with others of the town and got that road finished in 4 days so the funeral could be held. Please help if you're able. The world needs more people like this."

Delegation Presses BLM to Withdraw Public Lands Rule

U.S. Senators Jim Risch (R-Idaho), Mike Crapo (R-Idaho), John Hoeven (R-N.D.), and Steve Daines (R-Mont.) wrote the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) urging it to withdraw its proposed Public Lands Rule. The senators stressed the negative impact the proposal would have on western states, including Idaho, North Dakota, and Montana, as the rule would undermine the multiple use requirements established by Congress and lock away taxpayer-owned lands from activities that are essential to local economies, including grazing, energy development and tourism.

This follows Senators Risch and Crapo with U.S. Congressmen Mike Simpson and Russ Fulcher (All R-Idaho) urging BLM Director Tracy Stone-Manning to hold in-person public meetings in Idaho regarding the proposed rule.

"The proposal creates a framework for "conservation leases" without authorization from Congress. The proposal specifically notes that 'BLM shall not authorize any other uses of the leased land' that it determines are 'inconsistent' with this new framework, thereby interrupting the successful balance of other responsible uses from hunting and grazing, to energy development and recreation," the senators wrote.

"This new leasing regime opens the door for a new, noncompetitive process designed to lock away parcels of land, with no limits to size, for a period of 10 or more years. It's clear that antigrazing and anti-development organizations would abuse this tool to attempt to halt ranching and block access to our nation's abundant energy reserves located on public lands.

"BLM's proposed Public Lands Rule is an effort to empower special interests that have long opposed BLM's statutory mandate by prioritizing non-development over the principles of multiple use and sustained yield. Taking large parcels of land out of BLM's well-established multiple use mandate would cause significant harm to many western states and negatively impact the livelihoods of ranchers, energy producers, and many others that depend on access to federal lands. As such, the proposal should be withdrawn immediately."

In addition to Risch, Crapo, Hoeven, and Daines, the letter is signed by Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee Ranking Member John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) and Senators Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.), James Lankford (R-Okla.), Mike Lee (R-Utah), Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.), Dan Sullivan (R-Alaska), Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.), Deb Fischer (R-Neb.), Mike Rounds (R-S.D.), Mitt Romney (R-Utah), Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), and Roger Marshall (R-Kan.).

Rural & Underserved Educator Incentive Program

The second cohort of the State Board’s Rural and Underserved Educator Incentive program is now underway. Idaho educators working in rural or underserved school districts or charter schools can apply for state assistance to pay student loan debt or costs for additional education costs such as tuition for a master’s degree.

The link to the application window is posted on the State Board website: https://boardofed.idaho. gov/k-12-education/educator-effectiveness/rural-and-underserved-educator-incentive-program Successful applicants can receive up to $12,000 over four years for eligible loans and reimbursement of current education expenses. The breakdown is as follows:

1st year - $1,500

2nd year - $2,500

3rd year - $3,500

4th year - $4,500

Total: $12,000

Current eligible expenses include costs to obtain additional degrees, career technical certifications, course lab fees, books and course equipment.

The Rural and Underserved Educator Incentive program was created by the Legislative in 2022 to encourage new educators to accept jobs in rural and underserved schools and stay and work there. Teacher retention is an issue in many parts of Idaho, particularly in rural areas. Last year, over 760 educators applied for the program.

...F&G Approves Wolf Management Plan continued

monitoring the progress and adjusting as needed while re-establishing balance with prey species and reducing wolf conflict with livestock.

“We’re not going to eradicate wolves. It is not our intention, and I do not believe we would have that ability even if it was our intention,” Ebert said. “We preserve, protect and perpetuate species as a whole, and all species in tandem, so the question in my mind becomes about balance, and I believe things are out of balance with the wolf population.”

Ebert noted the Commission will continue to be involved in wolf management and change course if needed.

“I think we need to have the ability to control wolf populations, and I honestly look forward to the day when I can sit here and say ‘I think we need to back off on our wolf harvest,’ but I don’t think we are there yet.”

Fish and Game’s wolf population estimates are based on annual camera surveys and other methodology that showed about 1,337 wolves statewide during the summer of 2022, which is about 13% fewer than the 2021. Population estimates are based on camera surveys that measure the population near its annual peak.

At the end of 2022, Idaho had met or exceeded the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services minimum recovery goals for wolves for 25 consecutive years. The Federal delisting rule published when wolves were removed from federal protection in the northern Rocky Mountains in 2009 stated that wolf population would be managed by the state in Idaho to average around 500 wolves. The delisting rule also stated that maintaining the wolf population at a higher level would reduce wild prey abundance and result in higher rates of livestock depredation.

Currently, Idaho has abundant and healthy elk populations statewide, however herds are unevenly distributed, and eight of Fish and Game’s 28 elk management zones are below objectives. In five of those zones, Fish and Game biologists have determined that predation and other factors are limiting herd growth.
