Health Advisory For Morman Reservoir
On Friday, August 12th, a health advisory was issued for Mormon Reservoir by the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) and the South Central Public Health District (SCPHD). The DEQ reports that a local veterinarian recently treated a dog that later died. Based on the symptoms, the veterinarian suspects that the dog might have died due to exposure to toxins produced by a harmful algal bloom. While the cause of death is still under investigation, the animal recently had contact with algal blooms at Mormon Reservoir. Based on a visual inspection of Mormon Reservoir, DEQ was able to confirm the presence of a cyanobacteria bloom, also known as blue-green algae. The public is advised to take the following precautions: The 4H/FFA Livestock Sale will be held · Avoid exposure to water experiencing a harmful on Saturday, August 20th, at 10 a.m. Cowboy Church Sunday morning at 9:00 algal bloom.

Scott Olsen Norman
Scott Olsen Norman, 61, a resident of Richfield, passed away Friday, August 5, 2016 at his home in Richfield. Scott Olsen Norman was born May 8, 1955 in Brigham City Utah to Karl Olsen Norman and Nelda Lorraine Allen. He grew up in the small town of Corinne Utah and was the oldest of 8 children. His youth was spent working on the family farm with lots of fun times spent swimming, riding horses and later motorcycles. The family eventually relocated to Richfield, Idaho where he worked on the family farm which included a dairy and custom farming. Here he would meet his future wife Kitty R. Hubsmith (divorced) and would go on to have 11 children and begin a career with Glanbia in Gooding which spanned 3 decades. Scott made sure his family never went without the necessities of life. Working days, nights and overtime, his children never had to worry about food on the table or a roof over their heads. He was hardworking and was well liked by his co-workers who affectionately referred to him as “Scotty”. He enjoyed hunting, being outdoors and camping. He was known as a quiet, hardworking man who didn’t talk much of feelings, but felt things deep. He will always be loved and dearly missed by those who knew him. He is survived by both parents, all his brothers and sisters, 11 children, 15 grandchildren and many other friends and family members who will miss and love him dearly. The family would like to thank the Lincoln County Sheriff’s office for their service and compassion as well as those friends and neighbors throughout the Dietrich, Richfield and Shoshone communities for your love, service and prayers for the family.

Dalice Diane Buchanan
On April 20, 1941 a beautiful blonde haired bouncing girl was brought into this world as Dalice Diane Schraft in Gooding, Idaho by her beaming parents, Geneva and Oscar Schraft. She earned her wings on August 9, 2016 in Twin Falls, Idaho. She grew up going by the name Diane and later was given the nickname Dee Dee by her loving husband, Don. Diane had the opportunity to grow up between the majestic hills of Pine, ID and Boise. She was taught in the one room school house by her Mom, Geneva who was the school teacher there. She loved horses. She loved drawing. She loved Pine. She loved her family and friends and her husband of 35 years, Don Buchanan. She always had a warm smile, never a bad word and a wonderful, quirky sense of humor. Diane graduated from high school in Boise, ID and later went on to graduate from Lady Catherine School of Cosmetology along with her crazy cousin, Mary (Malcolmson) Swenson.

They loved each other with such a sincere strength that not many are blessed with. He was her protector and partner in life. They started their craft business, D&D Crafts and spent many summers traveling and attending craft bazaars. Diane was also a member of the Rebekah Lodge No 98 in Gooding and then Wendell Lodge #96 since1994. She held several offices including Noble Grand. She loved her time with the Rebekahs and her many friends there. She was preceded in death by her parents, Oscar and Geneva Schraft, her brother Duane Schraft and stepdaughter, Paula (Muriel) Buchanan. She is survived by her husband, Don Buchanan and her four children, spouses and grandchildren: Daughter, Carla (Will) Kaschmitter of Grangeville and their children Jennifer, Wilson and Holly, Daughter Sandrea Morgan of Meridian and her children, Hailie, Savannah and Bridger, Son, Hunter Edwards of Grangeville and his children Kaela, Schyler and Ryker, Daughter Melinda (Joel) Daniels of

Canal & Ditch Easements and Right-of-Ways
This picture clearly illustrates the good and bad involved with irrigation maintenance easements. The easement on the left side The right side of the canal cannot be maintained because there is a grain crop planted too close plus there is a buried irrigation mainline running down the middle of the easement with many risers (the arrow points to one) that would be damaged or destroyed if mowing were attempted. The bank is now dotted with trees which can’t be removed due to lack of access and the bank is infested with weeds including Canadian thistle.
provides access and is properly maintained.
KEY POINTS ABOUT EASEMENTS • Easement areas are not public property and are not open to public use. Unauthorized use of these strips of land amounts to trespassing. Swimming in canals or laterals is very dangerous and not allowed. It also constitutes trespassing. • Construction or other activities are not allowed in easement areas if they will interfere with the irrigation entity’s access, operation, maintenance and repair activities. • Be aware that the irrigation entity sometimes uses chemical weed killer as part of its regular bank maintenance. In these cases, every possible effort is made to make sure the spray is applied only in the easement. Weed burning may also pose a risk to structures, fences, landscaping or shrubbery that have encroached into the easement area. • More information about rights-of-way and easements for irrigation districts, canal companies, etc., can be found in Idaho Code Title 42, Chapters 11 and 12. The three photos on the right illustrate the typical kinds of encroachments that block access to legal canal maintenance easement areas.

Land Board Boosts Public Schools Payout
The State Board of Land Commissioners approved a 28-percent year-over-year increase in the Fiscal Year (FY) 2018 payout from the public school endowment fund. Idaho’s public school system will receive $47,049,600 in FY18. The total FY18 distribution to all beneficiaries, amounting to $73,483,200, sets a new record. The other endowment trusts provide long-term support to higher education, state hospitals for the mentally ill, state veterans homes, the Capitol building, the Idaho School for the Deaf and Blind, Idaho’s juvenile corrections system, and Idaho’s prison system. The money comes from economic activity on state endowment trust lands - mostly from the sale of timber - and earnings on investments. The Land Board voted to hold the distribution for all other endowment trusts at FY17 levels, most of which saw large increases in FY17. “The recommendations represent an appropriate balance between the interests of current and future beneficiaries,” EFIB Manager of Investments Larry Johnson said. The Land Board provides direction to the Idaho Department of Lands in its management of more than 2.4 million acres of endowment trust lands in Idaho and the EFIB in its management of $1.8 billion in trust funds generated from the use of the lands. The Land Board is comprised of the Governor, Attorney General, Secretary of State, State Controller, and Superintendent of Public Instruction.

Letter to the Editor Idaho Rodeo Hall of Fame Moves from Gooding: We have had several inquiries asking us why the Idaho Rodeo Hall of Fame Inductions are not being held this year in the Commercial Building of the Gooding County Fairgrounds, and it has come to our attention that there is a mistaken belief that we chose to move. We did not choose to do so; we were notified last year after approximately 250 people attending the IRHF event the last 2 years by Fair Manager Don Gill that the Commercial Building would no longer be available to us which prompted the immediate need to find another location for our inductions and to house our stored inventory, tables, chairs, etc and display our memorabilia. It was not our desire to leave. We spent several thousand dollars of our personal money inside the Commercial Building thinking we had a “home” for the IRHF as long as we wanted to be there and certainly didn’t expect to be told the Commercial Building wouldn’t be available to us after we just spent our time and expense cleaning out the storage area and on the “expansion” at our expense just prior to last year’s inductions. Hearing of our need for another location we were told the Jerome Historical Society was not only interested, but excited about providing us with space at their I-Farm location off the Interstate near the Twin Falls exit to display the IRHF memorabilia year around in a secured area. Because of the conflict with the City Council regarding the continuation of the IRHF steer program, the conflict and problems involved with security and the display of the memorabilia during the entire time of the Fair, and Mr. Gill’s desire to have a Western Art Show in the Commercial Building, our only alternative was to look for another location so we moved where we were wanted and there was excitement in having us. The IRHF is now recognized statewide and we hope you will continue to enjoy their Annual Fundraiser and Cowboy Reunion in Twin Falls July23rd, Inductions at the Canyon Crest Event Center July 24th and take time to visit the display at the I-Farm. They will be holding a tour the week of September 11. Lonnie and Charmy LeaVell Send your News & Articles to News@Highway46.org or call 764-3322 Camas, Gooding, Lincoln counties

Camas Quips Gathered by Tee Hurd
Two mothers were comparing stories about their children. The first one complained that her son never wanted to get out of the bed in the morning. The second told her, “I don’t have that problem. When it’s time for my son to get up, I just throw the cat in his bed.” “How does that help?” asked the first mom. “He sleeps with the dog.” ------The pediatrician says to Mrs. Smith, “You told me your son had problems eating, but when I examined him I found he had a broken nose.” Mrs. Smith said, “Doctor, you must have misunderstood what I ment when I said he just becks at his food.” ------Every seat was occupied, when a group of women got in. The conductor noticed a man who he thought was asleep. “Wake up!” shouted the conductor. “I wasn’t asleep,” said the passenger. “Not asleep! Then what did you have your eyes closed for?” “It was because of the crowded condition of the car,” explained the passenger. “I hate to see the women standing.”

are not exposed to the water. · Do not consume water with a blue-green algae bloom. Neither boiling nor disinfecting removes blue-green algae toxins from water. · If fish are known to have been exposed to a blue-green algae bloom, only consume the fillet portion (remove the fat, organs, and skin). Wash hands after handling. The risk associated with consuming fish caught in waters with a blue-green algae bloom is unknown. Toxins produced by blue-green algae can accumulate in the organs of fish. According to Josh Jensen, Public Health Program Manager, with South Central Public Health District, “Children and pets are particularly susceptible. Exposure to the toxins produced by cyanobacterial HABs may result in life-threatening liver damage, neurological problems such as muscle spasms, decreased movement, labored breathing, convulsions, and possible death.” DEQ will continue to monitor water quality at Morman Reservoir until the bloom dissipates and will advise the public when the concern no longer exists.
