Haslam stepping down as prosecutor

Pacific County Prosecutor Ben Haslam

By GEORGE KUNKE, geoakunke@ gmail.com

Pacific County Prosecutor Ben Haslam has decided to resign from his position.

Haslam, who took over as prosecutor in August of last year after Mark McClain stepped down, gave his resignation to the county commissioners September 17.

Haslam, who was hired as the deputy prosecutor in 2018, is mainly retiring for personal reasons and to spend more time with his family. He plans to continue as prosecutor during the time the commissioners fill the position and said he will make sure there is a smooth transition with his successor with Pacific County Commissioners Lisa Olsen, Frank Wolfe and Michael Runyon.

Haslam told the Herald he would respond to more questions in the near future.

“My focus now is on the trial next week,” He said. “I will circle back to this once that is completed.”

Raymond City Council

New housing development in Raymond in the future

By Karen S. Carter A new housing development is in the beginning stages of development as Owner of Willapa Bay Properties Rex Angelovich receives permission from the City of Raymond Council to purchase the old reservoir property above Elm Street.

Willapa Bay Properties has already purchased 152 lots in the area above Elm Street, but then discovered a hiccup.

“We are currently working on putting together a development project,” Angelovich said during a Raymond City Council Meeting. “There is a cityowned property right in the middle of our development; that was an old reservoir.”

Angelovich offered to trade or purchase the property out-right from the city.

He even offered the city an easement if they even needed to place a pumping station on the property.

Raymond Public Works Director Eric Weiberg informed the city council that he didn’t see a future need for the property and that it would possibly be best to just sell it.

Angelovich informed the council that he was looking at placing 60 homes in the new development. He also let them know that he was also planning on building another 16 houses at the end of Crossing Street. He See raymond Page A2

IRS Phone Scam

Well-respected Dr. Frank A. Hing, Did the IRS just call me? Am I under investigation? MD, retires after 38 years of practice

By Karen S. have email addresses that the IRS. When the IRS Carter Lately, scammers have been swamping cell phones with calls. One claims to be from the IRS and that you are under investigation for tax fraud. It is a recorded message, but if you listen until the end you might get a real person.

First, the IRS does not call anybody out of the blue. These things are not usually a surprise. The IRS sends you a notice in the mail at least once, so you know they want to talk to you. The calls are coming from scammers trying to collect your personal information.

The IRS also does not email you first when trying to get a hold of you. Do not reply to these emails.

When you check the email addresses they are usually fake. IRS employees all

They also do not send text messages or contact people through social media like Facebook or Twitter. The fraudsters are impersonating government agents and agencies to try to get you to reveal details about yourself.

The messages and phone calls will claim they tried to send you a notice in the U.S. mail, but that is not true.

Most phone calls from an IRS agent are usually a confirmation of the appointment they made with you through the mail.

Secondly, the IRS has all your information from your tax records, so you do not give out any of that information.

Also, the fraudsters will request a payment to get you out of trouble with

The agent will have two forms of official credentials: a pocket commission and a personal identity verification credential. The revenue offices will request payment to the U.S. Treasury, not to John Smith Debt Collector or any other place.

Lastly, when a scam recording asks you to push a button to leave a message, talk to an agent, or be removed from their call list: DON’T. Scammers do not have “do not call lists.” It just proves to the scammer that they got a hold of a live person and they will try your number more often. It is best to hang up and block the number.

SOUTH BEND – Dr Frank A. Hing, MD and Assistant Chief of Staff at Willapa Harbor Hospital, is retiring from his family practice at the end of the month. Dr Hing’s hard work and diligence have greatly benefited Willapa Harbor Hospital and the Pacific County community throughout the years. He has touched the lives of many, and his staff would like to personally congratulate him on his retirement.

Frank Hing was born and raised in Guyana, South America. He was the fourth of eight children. His parents couldn’t afford to send him to college, so he applied for scholarships. His first choice was engineering, but he was awarded the Guyana Scholarship for Medicine. The Guyana Scholarship was the most prestigious scholarship, so he decided to change his plans and go into medicine.

Dr. Hing attended the University of West Indies Medical School in Mona, Jamaica, where he also completed his residency. He completed his internship at Cornwall Regional Hospital in Jamaica.

He met his wife, Patricia, while they were in college, and they later were married in Jamaica in 1977. After migrating to the

come work at Willapa Harbor Hospital. He agreed and moved with his wife to Pacific County.

From 1983-2002, Dr. Hing had a private practice, Harbor Family Practice, where he saw patients and Patricia was his office manager. He also worked at Willapa Harbor Hospital performing minor surgeries, colonoscopies, endoscopies and assisted on other surgeries. He also worked in the emergency department and as a hospitalist.

He became a member of the Washington State Medical Association and a fellow at the American Association of Family Practice. In 2002, he moved his clinic to Willapa Harbor Hospital and continued performing procedures.

In 2018, he became the Cardiac Rehabilitation Medical Director.

Dr. Frank Hing and Patricia have two children, a son, Adrian, and a daughter, Simone, who both attended South Bend Elementary and South Bend HS. They both live in Seattle after finishing college. Simone, from Seattle University, and Adrian, from Western Washington University.

Dr. Hing enjoys traveling, golf, photography, and he’s a handyman and enjoys woodworking. After 38 years of hard work and service to the local community, he decided to retire from his family medicine clinic practice. But he has agreed to stay on at Willapa Harbor Hospital as the Medical Director of the Cardiac Rehabilitation Program and continue to perform procedures while filling shifts at his discretion on a per diem basis. This is a testament of his dedication toward the hospital and to keeping the community healthy.

His staff will surely miss seeing his smiling face on a regular basis in his clinic, but wholeheartedly wish him all the very best. Dr. Hing plans on traveling and playing golf during his retirement, maybe even doing some volunteering.

Good Bye to Dr. Hing To the Editor: This week will be Dr. Frank Hing's last as a family doctor in our community and my sister and I would like to thank him for caring for our family during the last 30 years. Dr. Hing had just arrived when our parents moved here. He was their doctor for almost the entire time they lived here and became our doctor as well when we moved here a few years ago.

Our mother would have died many times without Dr. Hing. She had a dangerous heart condition that eventually required a pacemaker.

Dr. Hing put in a temporary pacemaker before sending her to a specialist and hospital in Portland, Oregon. We will never forget arriving at the hospital and meeting with her new cardiologist. He asked who had put the pacemaker in, thinking there was a cardiologist in Raymond. We told him her family doctor, Dr. Hing, had

He told us we were very lucky. That most doctors who were not cardiologists, would not have been able to do what Dr. Hing had. She lived for almost 20 more years with this pacemaker.

A few years after moving here, I had a major medical problem that would encompass almost 3 years of hospital and doctor visits.

I would not have survived without Dr. Hing. When specialists failed me, he was there. He has cared for my mother, father, sister and me and we will miss him as he retires from private practice.

Having lived in a city with many doctors, we hope the community here realize how lucky you were to have him as a doctor here for so many years. Thank you Dr. Hing!

Raymond, Lewis County Get Money Commerce awards $11.4 million for vital infrastructure projects in 20 rural communities Community Development Block Grants fund a wide range of high-priority local projects, including public water, sewer, emergency and fire protection systems, streets, housing, food pantries and more.

The Washington State Department of Commerce last Thursday announced 20 rural cities, towns and counties will receive a total of more than $11.4 million in Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) for 2021. Raymond and Lewis County received awards.

The 22 projects funded will: • Improve rural water, sewer, streets, community facilities and fire protection systems, • Support affordable housing and economic development, and • Complete community planning for asset management, recreation and growth.

Grants include funding for critical fire and emergency facility projects in Malden, Republic and Colville, all communities struggling with the impact and growing frequency and severity of wildfires.

In addition to core water, sewer and street infrastructure, other grants will also fund local assistance programs such as a food bank and food pantry expansion in Kittitas County and regional housing rehabilitation in Klickitat and Skamania counties.

“This funding is necessary for small local governments, whose resources are stretched thin by the pandemic, to build and maintain public infrastructure that strengthens their communities,” said Commerce Director Lisa Brown.

These 22 projects will leverage an additional $15.9 million in other state, federal, local and private resources to strengthen rural Washington. Commerce received 37 applications for 2021 funds, requesting a total of $19.4 million.

Tournament Champions

The Raymond HS varsity volleyball team won it's own tournament on Saturday defeating Naselle in two sets, 25-23 and 25-11. “We only dropped one set on the day. Overall, everyone played and did a great job staying strong and competed well,” RHS head coach Bob Swogger told the Herald. The other seven competing teams included Willapa Valley, South Bend, Pe Ell, Ocosta, Ilwaco, North Beach and Northwest Christian, which defeated Pe Ell in the consolation bracket. In front from left are Alia Enlow, Jolie Dunn, Izzy Silvernail and Kyndal Koski. In back from left are Caton Swogger, Grace Busenius, Sidney Swogger, Kyra Gardner and Karsyn Freeman.

Lady Gulls gauge Leschi, Forks to stay unbeaten

By GEORGE KUNKE Raymond (6-0) remained undefeated on the season and still has not lost a game in the six matches after crushing Chief Leschi on the road last Tuesday (Sept. 21) and at home versus Forks Thursday night.

The Lady Seagulls flogged Forks 25-19, 25-9, 25-8. “Overall, we had a great night serving – especially in sets two and three,” RHS head coach Bob Swogger told the Herald. “This allowed us to keep them out of the system. We did have great first contact on our side and were able to run our offense. We also did a

good job as a team scrambling when we needed to.

“The offense was spread out fairly evenly with Kyra Gardner leading us with 13 kills,” Swogger pointed out. “Karsyn Freeman made her way back into the lineup with five kills and seven aces. Karsyn had a very long service run in the third set, serving points two through 16. Kyndal Koski also delivered a solid passing performance at libero and had 23 digs.

Our setters Sidney Swogger and Izzy Silvernail also ran the offense well.”

Raymond was victorious in the junior varsity match 25-15, 25-21. “We had great ball control in

all aspects of the game,” Swogger said.

RHS 3, CLHS 0 Raymond went to Puyallup and the trip paid off with a convincing 25-9, 25-9, 25-16 triumph.

“We had a good night serving and attacked the ball well when we had the chance to do so,” Swogger said. “We lost some focus in the third set. Overall, Kyndal Koski had a great night passing for us and stopped pretty much everything. The offense was spread out pretty evenly.”

Alia Enlow was tops for the Lady Seagulls in kills with 7 kills. Sidney Swogger pumped in 7 aces and added 4 kills. Gracie

Busenius scored 6 kills and adding 4 kills each were Gardner, Caton Swogger and Jolie Dunn.

Raymond won the JV match 25-12 & 25-9. “We had a good night serving and getting off attacks,” Coach Swogger said.

First at Own Tourney Raymond won its own tournament Saturday against eight other competing teams.

The Lady Seagulls traveled to North Beach last night, entertain Northwest Christian tomorrow, compete at the R.A. Long Volleyball Tournament Saturday and visit rival South Bend Tuesday.

Ravens bury Hyaks with ground game

By GEORGE KUNKE Raymond-South Bend pummeled North Beach 46-6 Friday night on the road. Raymond HS junior Tyler Reidinger erupted with a colossal night for the Ravens with 170 yards rushing and 3 touchdowns.

Reidinger carried the ball 27 times for an average of 6.3 yards per carry. Deleak Hubbard ran for 90 yards on 9 attempts and a TD. In all, the Ravens rambled for 337 yards on 52 totals for an average of 6.5 yard per pop.

“We were able to take care of business at North Beach (0-3) on Friday night,” RSB Assistant Coach Mike Tully told the Herald. “We were able to execute pretty well on both sides of the ball. We showed some resilience after giving up a big pass play early in the game.

“North Beach was able to get the ball back to the one, but we were able to get a stop, then turn around and drive 94 yards for our first touchdown,” Tully said. “That gave us some confidence, and we played well from there on out.”

“Ty Reidinger continues to settle into his role at running back,” Tully said. “He also added 10 tackles on the defensive side of the ball. Deleak Hubbard had his best game of the season carrying the ball.

Also scoring touchdowns for RSB were Iyven Perez on a 40-yard punt return and Ashton Kongbouakhay on an 8-yardrun. Adrian Quintana kicked a 19-yard field goal with the running clock at the 5:30 point in the fourth quarter.

Daniel Medeiros and Hubbard intercepted passes and senior Jaxson Freeman recovered a fumble.

Next up for the Ravens is undefeated at 3-0 Forks Friday at Raymond, which will be celebrating homecoming. “They run a no-huddle spread offense and like to mix up the run and pass,” Tully informed.

“Defensively, it looks as though they adjust their defense to the offense they are facing,' Tully added. “It will be a good test for us to see if we can compete with a team at that level.”

“Jasmine Solso, a freshman from Valley, turned in a monster performance, finishing fifth.” Solso's time was 23:32. Raymond's Genevieve Sarich finished 13th in 25:17. “They are really making progress. These are top flight performances, and for Solso, this is only her third race at the high school distance.”

Raymond-South Bend defeated Winlock 3-1 in girls soccer last Monday (Sept. 20) at South Bend.

The Cardinals led 1-0 before the Ravens scored the next three goals. Kiana Bale tied the match with a corner kick from striker Elli Capps that Kiana hit in stride off her thigh and into the goal. At the end of the first half, striker Kenia Villegas was able to break through the defense with a nice shot that went into the corner of the net to set off the lights and take the lead. Freshman midfielder Dakota Bale finished off the scoring for the Ravens with a long shot.

Lola Bale and Emma Shults split duty at goalie, each of them making saves to keep the victory intack.

The Raymond-South Bend girls' soccer team traveled to Stevenson September 15 for a non-league game on the Columbia River.

The Ravens led 1-0 after a long arching shot from freshman midfielder Dakota Bale went through the gloves of the

Stevenson goalie.

The defense held its ground throughout the game led by sophomore sweepers Alexis Stigall and Paige Williams, sure-footed junior Claudia Bucio and the speedy defense of sophomore Alison Nelson.

In stoppage time, Stevenson knotted the game at 1-1. The coaches and players unanimously agreed to finish the game with penalty kicks.

Dakota Bale again stepped up for her team, as a goalie this time stopping three of the five kicks fired off by the Stevenson team. Both Raven strikers, Elli Capps and Kenia Villegas, were able to place kicks to keep the game even 3-3 after five kicks per team.

Stevenson won 4-3 in sudden death by capitalizing on its last kick after a Raven's miss.

The Ravens (1-2) were scheduled to play at Onalaska Sept. 22 before coming home to face Adna last Monday (Sept. 27) and Napavine today, both at Raymond. The Ravens then visit Forks Oct. 4.

A5 Classifieds Vikings batter Pe Ell; big week of net action looms Willapa Harbor Herald

Wednesday September 29, 2021

By GEORGE KUNKE COVID-19 struck twice against two opponents Willapa Valley was scheduled to play against last week. One match resulted in a forfeit win for the Vikings, now 5-0 overall and 3-0 in the 1B Columbia Valley League.

“We were only able to play one game (last) week against PeEll,” WVHS Head Volleyball Coach Karisa Makaiwi Hodel told the Herald. “We drove all the way down to Firm Foundation in Battle Ground on Tuesday – just to be told there would be no game since half their team was exposed to Covid, and they only had five players. So that was an automatic forfeit and an automatic win for us. The next day we were informed that our game against Three Rivers Christian would be cancelled as well for Thursday, due to the same, Covid exposure for the whole team. We are currently still trying to figure out a day to make that game up.”

Vikings 3, Pe Ell 0 The Vikings knocked off Pe Ell 2512, 25-13, 25-20 last Monday (Sept. 20) at Tenoski Gym in Menlo. “Our serving line was good but not our best with 90 percent and a team total of 12 aces,” Coach Makaiwi Hodel said. “Our receiving line was off that night and not up to par. It was part of the reason we were not able

to set up more attacks. Lanissa Amacher and Merissa Frasier were able to at least even-out our mistakes, so we were able to get our offense going at times.

“Setting up the offense with 98 percent accuracy was Trentadi Graves with 12 assists and Lanissa Amacher with 10 assists,” Coach Makaiwi Hodel noted. “Our Attacking line was on point all around.

Lanissa Amacher and Lauryn McGough nailed down six apiece and Trentadi Graves with five, and Grace Huber and Gaby Quezada with four apiece. This is a great improvement and I hope to see these same results for the rest of the season but increase in numbers. They have been working hard on trying different things and running plays. It's exciting to see it happen when it does.

“Digging up the Trojan defense was Lanissa Amacher with 19, Grace Huber with 18 and Merisssa Frasier with 13. Our blocking still needs some work but we will get there. Blocking the defense was Grace Huber and Gaby Quezada.”

The Vikings won the junior varsity match 25-21, 25-23.

Raymond Tournament Willapa Valley took fourth place of nione teams at the Raymond High School Volleyball Tournament all-day Saturday.

Coach Makaiwi Hodel told the Herald,

“We ended up fourth after the pool play and barely made it into the championship bracket. Towards the end of the day we lost some important matches in pool play that landed us last in the championship bracket.

“We played Raymond first off in pool play and lost. Towards the middle of the day, we played Ilwaco and lost by two points. We let them get a lead and couldn't dig ourselves back out but they never gave up. Then we lost to South Bend towards the end of the day due to time running out.

Since they won that match because they had the most points, it came down to headto-head so they got the third seed.

“So we had to play Raymond in our first game of the championship bracket.

We went to three games with them. It was a great game to see – especially since for the first time in years, they were not on our schedule. They won the first set, we won the second and then the third, they won 15-13. We had the lead but made too many crucial mistakes towards the end.

Once again, these girls never gave up in this battle and kept up the fight 'til the very end.”

Upcoming Matches Willapa Valley's schedule for this week includes: Monday, home vs Columbia Adventist Academy, Tuesday, at Naselle,

Thursday, (JV only) vs Washington School for the Deaf (6 pm), and Saturday at the RA Long Invitational Volleyball Tournament in Longview. Valley hosts always tough Mossyrock Tuesday.

“This week, fingers crossed that we will be able to play CAA at home on Monday and at Naselle on Tuesday,” Coach Makaiwi Hodel said. “Both of the varsity games will be important for league standings. We already played CAA and won so we have a little bit more on them of what to expect.

“Naselle is always a team to watch out for. They have always had an excellent program for years and many state appearances. This is a team to beat and having been able to play them multiple times last year, we are ready for the challenge.

“On Saturday we will be competing at the RA Long Invitational in Longview for the first time. It's a 12-team tournament with some great teams ranging from all school sizes. This will be a great way for my girls to get and see some great competition. The lady Vikes and I are really excited for this tournament and can't wait to see how we do. Every game and every tournament is a learning experience and with these experiences comes growth from our team.”

South Bend topples Navs, lose at Ocosta

In set four, we dug ourselves a hole we couldn’t get out of,” SBHS Head Volleyball Coach Kelsey Staats told the Herald.

Obituaries In Loving Memory of Peter Kotula

Peter Kotula passed away in his sleep Tuesday, September 14th, 2021. He spent his final moments at Virginia Mason Hospital in Seattle, after a day surrounded by friends and family. He is survived by his son Matthew Kotula, who temporarily stepped away from his job in Ohio to be with his father and watch over the estate.

Pete lived a life devoted to his passions. He worked tirelessly to explore the world around him, always Peter Kotula striving to leave it a better place than when he arrived.

He took an active role in society, making friends and building relationships with countless members of the community around him. He was a woodsman, hunter, skier, scout master, mechanic, man of faith, musician, fisherman and father. He leaves behind a legacy of tireless work ethic, sharp moral character and stubborn resilience that anyone who knew him will never forget.

Born August 7th 1952 in Portland Oregon to Martcil and Sue Kotula. Pete was the middle child of 5 siblings. He had 3 sisters, Jane, Jil and Dixie, and one brother, Marty. He started his education at St. Francis of Assisi catholic school, before moving to Gregory Heights public school, finishing high school at Highline public school and finally graduating with a trade degree from Green River Community College.

During this time, his father supported the family as an electrical engineer working for Bonneville Power and then The Boeing Company. It was admiration for his father that fueled Pete’s interest in mechanics and eventually led him to start his own business. Pete’s Auto Repair and Body Shop opened in the late 70s, and served Pacific County for more than 3 decades. Offering oil changes, engine repair, painting and everything in between, Pete operated his shop almost entirely by himself.

In 1990, Pete became a father. The birth of his son reinvigorated a passion for boy scouts that started in his youth. Years of accumulated skill made him an invaluable asset to Troop 36, earning him a reputation as one of the most prepared scout masters in all of Washington. Under his guidance, the troop saw 2 boys earn the rank of eagle scout, including his own.

As Pete grew older his mobility went into sharp decline.

His days of fixing trucks and riding motorcycles were behind him, but nothing could keep him from the great outdoors.

Even in the last year of his life you could still run into Pete pulling firewood out of Mill Creek or hunting elk in the Willapa hills. Now that he has passed, he will rest peacefully in the Holy Family cemetery alongside his mother, father and older brother.

The service was held at Holy Family Catholic Church in Frances, Washington.

Arrangements are in care of Stoller’s Mortuary in Raymond, Washington. You may visit www.StollersMortuary. com to leave condolences for the family.

In Loving Memory of Jessie J. (Osborn) Stinson

Jessie J. (Osborn) Stinson was born June 18, 1924 in Ashford, WA to Josiah and Elizabeth (Bentley) Osborn. She went to Heaven on September 21, 2021 at the Willapa Harbor Care Center.

Jessie is survived by 2 daughters Kathy (Bob) Campbell of Menlo, and Becky (Doug) Blevins of Raymond, also 6 grandchildren Don (Dawn) Morton, Johnna Wesley, Gina (Wade) Kotek, all of Jessie J. (Osborn) Stinson Olympia, and Krista (Bryan) Wilkeson, Jenny (Roy) Collins of Raymond, and Jamie (Mandi) Blevins of Stanwood, 13 great grandchildren, and 5 great great grandchildren. Her husband Earl “Bud” and 9 brothers and sisters preceded her in death.

She grew up on a Theodore Roosevelt land grant Homestead and cherished her Osborn heritage. She graduated from Eatonville high school in 1943 and drove Army trucks during World War II. After her children were in high school, she completed nurses training and worked at Community Hospital in Aberdeen, Willapa Harbor Care Center in Raymond, and for the duration of her career, Willapa Harbor Hospital at South Bend.

As a member of the South Bend First Baptist Church, she gave tirelessly to help others, always willing to prepare food and transport those in need. Above all else, she loved the Lord and her family. Due to COVID restrictions, a private graveside service for family members only will be held at a later date.

Arrangements are in care of Stoller’s Mortuary in Raymond, Washington. You may visit www.StollersMortuary.com to leave condolences for the family.

“We implemented a new lineup tonight, and it proved to be the right decision,” Staats said. “Everyone got playing time, so the win was a true team effort. We served 91 percent and played solid overall.”

Jewell played solidly with 11 digs, 5 kills and 13 for 13 at the service line. Reece Williams scored 7 kills, was 10 for serving and dug up 9 balls. Morley added 8 digs and made 4 kills.

In the JV match, the Navigators won the first game 25-23, and South Bend won the second game, 25-19.

South Bend hosted Chief Leschi last night, takes to the road Friday at North Beach and hosts rival Raymond Tuesday.

Tokeland’s event safety trailer

By Karen S. Carter During Tokeland’s Woodfest event this year, a small plank house replica was tucked away among the vendors. This was the debut of the Tokeland North Cove Chamber’s Event Safety Trailer. The trailer was a success and will be used for other upcoming events in the Tokeland/North Cove area.

In 2019, the chamber and Tokeland/North Cove businesses held over 20 events to draw in locals and visitors alike. When the pandemic hit, they had to scale down their event calendar for 2021. The push was to find a way to encourage event safety procedures during the events. The idea of the portable event safety

trailer was born.

The idea was for the trailer to be centrally located during the event and hold safety equipment and PPE. It would also act as an information booth and be manned by volunteers.

Some of the items that were stored and on-hand in the trailer were: • Hand washing stations • Masks & gloves • Thermometers • Floor markings • Hand sanitizers and wipes • Location containment fencing to control crowd sizes as necessary • Signage informing attendance requirements and reminders to staying safe • Event and association

information History of the event trailer Collaborating with Ocosta Jr/Sr High Art Department along with the Cornish College of Art, the chamber found the funding for the project. Don Watkins, an Ocosta art teacher, who worked with his students brought the trailer from concept to reality.

The Ocosta students and staff designed the project after studying the issues of holding events during the pandemic and researching the history of the Tokeland area. The design called for the trailer to resemble the historical plank houses of the Shoalwater Bay Tribe.

During a summer construction class to earn a semester credit, four students built two trailers under Watkins’ supervision. The students were Dylan Todd, Gage Grigsby, Lidia Morales, and Cyrus Cardreon.

Look for the chamber’s trailer during events in the Tokeland area. They are hoping to use the trailer more often at smaller events from now on.

Why Are Salmon in Trouble?

As Washington’s population grew, the number of salmon dwindled. By the end of the twentieth century, the numbers of wild salmon and steelhead had dropped so much that the federal government declared species in nearly three-fourths of the state as threatened or endangered. The Legislature created the Salmon Recovery Funding Board in 1999 to determine how best to distribute state and federal funding to recovery projects.

“This funding provides the foundation for efforts to protect and restore the habitat our salmon and steelhead depend upon,” said Jeff Breckel, chair of the Salmon Recovery Funding Board. “It supports the work of many dedicated individuals and organizations and leverages additional government and private funding. These grants are one of our best tools for reversing the decline of salmon populations.

Without this funding, we simply wouldn’t be able to save salmon, which are such a critical part of our Northwest culture, economy and quality of life.”

Why is Recovery Important?

Salmon are a keystone species upon which many other animals rely. One report documented 138 species of wildlife, from whales to flies, that depend on salmon for their food. Salmon fishing also is important to Washington’s economy.

Commercial and recreational fishing in Washington is estimated to support 16,000 jobs and $540 million in personal income.

Recreationally, an estimated $1.5 billion is spent annually on fishing and harvesting shellfish in Washington, supporting many rural families and businesses. In addition,

Washington State is obligated to uphold treaty-reserved fishing rights for Indian tribes and has a duty to ensure salmon are present and available for harvest.

Investing in salmon recovery also helps local businesses. Every $1 million spent on forest and watershed restoration generates between 15.7 and 23.8 jobs. About 80 percent of that funding stays in the county where the project is located.

Overall, salmon recovery funding since 1999 has resulted in more than $1 billion in economic activity.

How Projects are Chosen “Washington has a unique approach to salmon recovery,” said Megan Duffy, director of the Washington State Recreation and Conservation Office, which provides support to the salmon board. “The local community decides which projects are important to them and to salmon. That process helps ensure we are funding projects local communities will embrace and help support. Salmon recovery would be less effective if communities weren’t involved.”

Projects are selected by lead entities, which are watershed-based groups that include tribes, local governments, nonprofit organizations and citizens. The projects are based on federally approved, regional salmon recovery plans. Lead entities vet projects through citizen and science committees. The projects are then reviewed by regional organizations and submitted to the Salmon Recovery Funding Board for funding. Regional salmon recovery organizations and the board review each project for cost-effectiveness and to ensure they will benefit salmon.
