On Our Cover:

pinions of Neskowin homeowners were heard during an Aug. 2 presentation designed to elicit community opinions on three secondary access options for the village of Neskowin.

Held during the Neskowin Citizens Advisory Committee August meeting at Nestucca Fire’s Neskowin station, the discussion was lead by CAC Chair Guy Sievert. Also on hand to answer questions were Tillamook County Commissioner Mark Labhart and Tillamook County Public Works Director Liane Welch.

Sievert said the redevelopment of a secondary access owes its origins to the Neskowin Coastal Hazards Committee, which recommended a secondary access to the village.

“Our concern is that we have one access at the Salem Street Bridge and there are any number of things that can happen to that bridge,” he said. “The bridge is very susceptible to a storm surge coming up Hawk Creek.”

The initial plan called for building a graveled road that would be closed except in the case of emergency. For that plan, Tillamook County has asked the community of Neskowin to contribute $50,000 towards the estimated $378,200 price tag. The county has also committed $50,000 and Labhart said that he has received assurances from Sen. Arnie Roblan that the state will ante up $150,000. Preliminary design work for the emergency access road repair has been completed by the county. Labhart pledged to find the remainder of the funds should the community support this option.

The two other options discussed on Aug. 2 were the development of a paved one-way (most likely in an exiting direction) vehicular road with pedestrian and bicycle access allowed both ways, and a full two-lane paved road. Estimated cost for the one-way option is $800,000 and for the two-lane road $1.3 million.

The one-way option is in many ways similar to the emergency access only, but it would need to be widened for the additional usage. It would also likely require more work in the roadbed to support the additional traffic.

One of the biggest factors in the escalating costs of each option is the riparian and wetlands surrounding the road. Significant wetland mitigation is expected to be required for any roadway, more so for the two-lane option.

“This road and everything outside of where the road is is wetlands,” said Welch. “Part of the work that needs to be done is environmental work. If we impact wetlands, we have to mitigate.”

TILLAMOOK COUNTY is considering three options for developing Hawk Creek Road ranging from an emergency access only gravel road to a two-lane byway. The cost could be as little as $378,200 or as much as $1.3 million. Officials are awaiting a consensus on the preferred option, but have pledged to at least fund the emergency route together with a $150,000 state allocation and a $50,000 contribution from community members.

She said that the county would build any roadway to withstand a 100year storm event, which means raising the roadbed four feet. Making the new road earthquake and tsunami proof is not on the table.

In any case, the plans to redevelop the roadway owes its thanks to the Sutton family, which transferred its ownership of the road via a quick claim deed last month.

Though the presentation and discussion brought forth mostly constructive comments and concerns, there was no mistaking some homeowner’s passion for their point of view. Some wondered, in the light of the narrow streets that serve the village of Neskowin, why the new road couldn’t also be built in a similar fashion. But Welch essentially said that was then, this is now. She added that those same roads — Neskowin was platted in 1910 when there was not the fire codes present today — would not be approved if built now.

“I would never approve that,” she said. “It is not safe. It doesn’t allow for connectivity. it doesn’t allow for emergency access. (I understand) you love the village feel, but it’s not safe transportation that I would advocate for development in the future.”

There was also some discussion on whether the county could build the emergency access only road with the

idea of later upgrading it to a one-way paved road or even the two-lane option.

Welch said that was possible, but that might mean one of two things: building the emergency access roadbed to higher standards (and higher costs) or starting from scratch when its time for the upgrade.

Sievert said that for the community’s share of the funding, it would likely be a volunteer effort if the community should decide on the emergency access only option. He added that for a paved option, a more official way of dealing with fundraising would likely be required. In that case, a special tax district would be the likely vehicle.

In a straw poll, 14 community members expressed a desire to only do the emergency route, 30 the one-lane road and 22 a two-lane byway. There was also some interest in the idea of building an emergency route now with the idea of upgrading it to a one-lane road in the future, but there was no count taken on the show of hands. With the lack of a consensus, the community will broach the issue again on Labor Day weekend at the Neskowin Community Association’s meeting. In the meantime, Welch said she would get a better picture of the financial implications of building an emergency route now with the ultimate goal of upgrading it to one of the paved options.

NEWS&COMMUNITY Grant comes through for healthy lifestyles

By SCOTT GILBERT for the Sun “Lifestyle medicine” has gotten a boost with a grant that will enable Tillamook Regional Medical Center to launch the Live Well program through its Bayshore Medical clinic in Lincoln City.

“It’s family medicine in a very traditional sense,” said Dr. Greg Steinke, who will lead the programs for smoking cessation, overcoming depression and battling lifestyle-related health conditions such as heart disease, obesity and diabetes.

Steinke, who will continue to see his patients in his Bayshore practice, is excited about the chance to provide more education than can be accomplished in a short visit. “I want to take a lot of extra time with these folks,” he said.

Bayshore Medical, which got its start in Pacific City in 1979 and also has the office in Lincoln City, became part of the Adventist Health network last year. The $8,980 grant of federal funds was disbursed through the Oregon Office of Rural Health at Oregon Health & Science University. The grant was solicited by Tillamook Regional Medical Center, which hopes to help people “make behavioral-based changes that support their improved health status, at less cost and with higher quality,” according to the grant application.

“Scientific research directly relates improved health and wellness with education and support for making healthy lifestyle choices,” said Gina Seufert, a longtime registered nurse who serves as the medical center’s vice president of physician and clinic services.

The Live Well classes — dubbed “Ditch Tobacco,” “Depression: A Way Out” and “Complete Health Improvement Program” (CHIP) — will be held at two locations in Lincoln City and will kick off with a CHIP session on Sept. 15. Anyone interested in attending and registering is urged to call 541-614-0482.

“I’ve always had an interest in lifestyle medicine,” said Steinke, a family practitioner who joined the Bayshore group in 2010 and whose interests are reflected in the subjects of the three classes.

“A big chunk of our health problems is related to the development of major food industries,” with their focus on financial gain and meeting the demands for foods that immediately satisfy the basic cravings for sugar, salt and fat, he said.

At one time, he said, “food was a family affair” stemming from gardens, and much has been lost as times have changed. “Why is there no broccoli restaurant?”

He answered his own question by citing McDonald’s fizzled attempt to launch a healthier line, saying customers “were looking for sugar, salt and fat.”

Steinke said the classes on depression will address a large need. “I chose it because of the significant amount of depression we see in our practice,” he said.

“There’s never been more fun things to do, and yet people seem to be more depressed than ever. That’s not where the solution lies, obviously,” he said.

Typical approaches for treating depression are counseling and medication, Steinke said, but his classes will detail other routes, such as diet, exercise, lifestyle and thought patterns. “There are a number of treatments known,” he said. “Emotional intelligence is very related to adequate sleep, recreation, rest and exercise.”

The smoking-cessation classes will be held in a group setting, but there’s no one-size-fits-all approach, he said. “How to quit smoking varies by person.”

Education levels, socioeconomic factors, lack of access to information, family culture and financial struggles all play roles in poor health choices, Steinke said, but he’s up for the challenge of fighting that trend.

The word “doctor” originally meant “teacher,” he explained as he described the plan for the Live Well program. “I’m excited about starting it.”

ue to the recent number of fatalities, the U.S. Coast Guard is cautioning beachgoers to be aware of possible dangers and encouraging them to stay safe while enjoying the Oregon and Washington coasts.

During the past two months, the Coast Guard has responded to numerous reports of beachgoers swept out into the ocean along the Pacific Northwest coast.

Since July 3, four of these cases have resulted in fatalities. Those losses include a 10-year-old girl in Long Beach, Wash., on July 3; a 53-year-old man in Seaside, Ore, on July 22;, an 18-year-old man in Ocean Shores, Wash., on July 26 and, closer to home, a 19-year-old man in Garibaldi, Ore., on Aug. 4.

“In each instance, the people who got caught in the currents were visiting from out-of-town,” said Cmdr. Bill Gibbons, chief of response, Coast Guard Sector Columbia River. “Visitors are more likely to enter the water unaware of the unpredictable and extreme dangers posed by beach surf along the Pacific Northwest coast.

In one instance, a victim was only in water up to his knees when he was knocked down by a wave and pulled out into the ocean.”

Beachgoers are reminded to always be aware of their surroundings. Water depths can change rapidly

along the coastline and waves and rip currents can be very strong and unpredictable.

“The only way to avoid the risk is to avoid going in the water,” said Gibbons. “At a minimum, people should never enter the water alone, children should never be allowed near the water unattended, and people who are near the edge of the surf line must be prepared for what many refer to as “sneaker waves” — disproportionately large and powerful coastal waves that can appear without warning.”

And since ocean temperatures here remain around 55 degrees during the summer months, wet or dry suits are advisable during prolonged water exposure.

“Tragic experiences such as the ones over the last couple of months highlight the need for beachgoers to be fully aware of the dangers while enjoying their time along the coast,” said Capt. Daniel Travers, commander, Coast Guard Sector Columbia River. “Incidents like the aforementioned can be reduced by planning ahead, being aware of your surroundings and observing beach safety guidelines.”

Design Your Dream Park NVCA hosts open house designed to elicit community desires for upcoming park near Cape Kiwanda

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun

I

f you’ve got ideas on just what an upcoming 2.4-acre park located just east of Cape Kiwanda should look like, the Nestucca Valley Community Association wants to hear from you.

The NVCA is hosting a drop-in style open house on Saturday, Aug. 16, from 10 a.m.-2 p.m., at Kiawanda Community Center, 34600 Cape Kiwanda Drive, during which they will have a community survey available as well as a skate park modeling and park drawing activity. All ages are welcome to attend and share their visions.

“It’s a chance to get input (from the community) on what they want on the grounds,” said Liz Christiansen, an NVCA volunteer and organizer of the open house. “We want to engage the community as much as possible and feed that into the professionals that are going to be helping us with the master plan.”

A preliminary park concept, which currently calls for the development of a skate park, picnic benches, playground, outdoor amphitheater, interpretative center, and trailhead access, will also be available for the community to view and give feedback on. There remains a possibility to add or detract from that list of amenities. One possible addition that has been suggested since the development of the preliminary plan is tennis courts.

To help facilitate ideas, organizers are planning on having catalogs of different playground equipment available.

“We also have some ways for kids to come and design the skate park,” Christiansen said. “We’re going to have all those kinds of tools there.”

Refreshments will also be provided at the free community event. For more information, contact the NVCA, which is leasing the property from Tillamook Light Wave for $10 per year, at nvcainfo@gmail.com or visit their website at www.nestucca.org.

ODFW seeks public comment on fish passage agreement with ODOT Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife is seeking public comment on a proposed fish passage agreement between the Oregon Department of Transportation and ODFW. The proposed three-year pilot would allow ODOT to perform culvert repairs while providing improved passage at each repair location and strategically target high priority fish passage projects located off the ODOT road system.

Members of the public have until Aug. 21 to submit written comments on the proposed agreement for consideration by the Fish Passage Task Force. The agreement and supporting materials can be viewed at www.dfw.state.or.us/ fish/passage/. Written comments can be submitted to Greg Apke, ODFW Fish Passage Program Coordinator, 3406 NE Cherry Ave. NE, Salem, OR 97303. Apke is also accepting e-mail submissions at Greg.D.Apke@.dfw.state.or.us, as well as voiced comments at 503-947-6228.

The proposed three-year agreement is currently being reviewed by the Fish Passage Task Force and will be presented to the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission for approval in October.

According to ODOT culvert inventories on state highways, roughly one-third of the 35,000 culverts on the state highway system are in poor condition and

in need of repair. Under current ODFW fish passage policy, significant culvert repairs trigger fish passage requirements, which typically require replacement of the existing culvert with a larger culvert or bridge.

According to Apke, this three-year agreement will allow ODOT to make specified culvert repairs without requiring full fish passage criteria compliance.

As part of the agreement, ODOT would improve fish passage conditions at each site they repair, and pay $1.8 million into an ODFW-managed account that would fund high-priority fish passage projects.

In addition, ODOT would fund a new transportation liaison position, managed

by ODFW, to coordinate the agreement’s implementation.

Apke indicated that ODFW believes this approach will provide a net benefit to native migratory fish over current practices as the agreement mandates that ODOT provide incremental fish passage improvements at culvert repair sites, and funding for high priority fish passage projects on the ODFW statewide priority list. In exchange, the agreement allows ODOT to perform cost effective short-term culvert repairs. Monitoring during the pilot period will evaluate the impacts on fish and the effectiveness of the culvert repairs.

diverse group that is looking at ways to improve the visitor experience discussed ways to improve the perennial problem of garbage disposal at Cape Kiwanda and agreed to a temporary solution of placing two small dumpsters at the site during the summer weekends.

Paul Carbaugh, owner of Nestucca Valley Sanitary Service, offered to waive the rental cost of the dumpsters, subject to the approval of County Commissioners. Commissioners must approve any change to NVSS rates.

Meeting on July 31 at Nestucca Rural Fire Protection District’s administrative center in Hebo, the group gathered to address a multitude of issues, but it was the garbage problem that got top billing.

Tillamook County Solid Waste had installed a recycling center in June that also includes two garbage compactors in an effort to cut costs and to keep homeowners and vacationers from using the site as their dumping grounds. According to Solid Waste Manager David McCall, the site is only meant to handle parking lot refuse. And that’s where not all agree.

Because the Tillamook County-owned lot serves the Cape Kiwanda beach, which is managed by the Oregon Parks and Recreation District, it has been the unofficial drop-off point for refuse from beach picnics and the like. State Parks has not to date put up — or paid for — garbage facilities for the beach at Cape Kiwanda.

“The reality is that the beach feeds the (garbage problem in) the parking lot,” said Del Schliechert, Tillamook County Parks director. “If we’re going to recycle, we’ve got to get our partner on the beach (to contribute). The reality is

we’re not all working as a team.”

It has also served as a spot where those doing their own personal beach cleanup can take their bags. And for those uses, the two trash compactors, which have narrow openings to prevent large bags from being deposited, isn’t working.

“What we’ve done is gone from big dumpsters to these tiny little garbage receptacles that you can’t get much in to,” said Paul Hanneman, co-chair of the Pacific City Dorymen’s Association.

“Last morning the whole area (was littered) with garbage. Everything was packed as tight as you could in two little receptacles so everybody just (put their garbage) on the ground.”

But McCall said the limiting of garbage bags is by design as the idea is to prevent those not using the parking lot from placing their household garbage.

For his part, Hanneman said that while he applauds the recycling effort, the openings and receptacles need to be just a little bigger to serve the need.

“I think the request ought to be from the county to State Parks to share in the cost of the current location there and pay the county from state funds to add three or four more of these receptacles — or something a little bigger,” he said. “We’ve gone from the extreme of two big dumpsters to two little things that people can’t get their garbage into.

I think the big dumpsters were an invitation to dump household garbage. We need something halfway in between.

Let’s forget about dumpsters, but there must be a smaller unit that a lady can (put) her bag into that she has dutifully picked (trash into) all along the parking lot only to find she has to take it all out again to get it into the door.”

Commissioner Tim Josi, who led the meeting, said the commissioners would work on getting State Parks to help pay for the garbage service.

Jury awards $3.8 million to surfer Doryman Darrell Martin found not at fault, but state to pay damages as jury determines there weren’t adequate warnings of dangers

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun

A

panel of 13 jurors found doryman Darrell Martin not responsible for a July 6, 2008, accident in which Martin’s boat collided with surfer Cole Ortega, but assessed the State of Oregon $3,817,250.24 in damages for not providing adequate warnings of the dangers between dory boats and other beach users.

Ortega’s left arm was severed in the accident, but it was later reattached. He now has about 20 to 25 percent use of that arm.

The decision, which was reached on Friday, Aug. 1, includes $717,250.24 in economic damages to account for past, current and future medical bills. A total of $3.1 million in non-economic damages was awarded.

Ortega did not get the full $5.3 million he was suing for because of the civil suit formula that jurors follow, which allows them to access responsibility on a percentage basis.

The jury determined that the State of Oregon was 70 percent responsible and Ortega 30 percent.

Central to the state’s defense was their assertion that they did not need to have warnings posted because the dangers were “clear

and obvious.”

In his closing comments, Ortega’s attorney, Daniel Dziuba, said that he wouldn’t dispute that Martin did all he could to avoid the accident that day.

“I’m not gong to argue that Mr. Martin did anything wrong,” he said. “I think he was in the same terrible situation that Mr. Ortega (was in).”

But he didn’t give the same free pass to the state. He asserted that the state had prior knowledge of the dangers and didn’t do anything about it. He cited correspondence as old as March 22, 1968, in which Dorymen’s Association co-chair Paul Hanneman pointed out the dorymen’s concern with various water-oriented users of the beach at Cape Kiwanda. The communication asserted that landing a dory through the surf requires a great deal of skill on the doryman’s part and that, when coming through the surf, the dory must be kept at a straight course and in most cases cannot stop the forward movement of the dory — even if he wished to. He also pointed to an exhibit featuring a 2005 state report on visitor areas with “serious problems.”

Because dory landings were singled out in that report, Dziuba said the state was fully aware of the danger.

Despite that, he said, there were not sufficient warning signs posted the day of the accident.

The state countered saying that everybody knows that the situation at Cape Kiwanda is dangerous and full of different uses. Attorney Jill Schneider said that more warning signs had been present prior to the accident and that because Ortega had visited before, he was aware of the danger both because he knew of dory boats and because signs were posted at other times including in 2005 and 2006 when the Ortega family also visited Cape Kiwanda.

Dziuba, though, said that wasn’t sufficient. He also said placement was important and that the lack of signage on Alder Street where many surfers access the beach was a serious deficiency.

“Cole Ortega was out there not expecting to see any dory boats, and he didn’t see any until he was hit,” he said. “You’ve got to have signs where people that are going to enter the beach go.”

Hanneman told the Sun he was satisfied with the decision.

“I’m pleased and I assume the Association is also that Darrell is free of a six-year burden on him without having to have been subject to paying part of the original request of $5.3 million,” he said.

NEWS&COMMUNITY Planning Commission to consider changes to Neskowin building code on Aug. 14 The Tillamook County Planning Commission will consider a set of rules and regulations on Thursday, Aug. 14 that are designed to lessen the potential for catastrophic damage to coastal properties. The hearing will be at the Tillamook County Courthouse.

Titled “Neskowin Coastal Erosion Adaption Plan 2013,” the plan is a result of a coastal hazards committee group chaired by Tillamook County Commissioner Mark Labhart that has been meeting for more than three years in an effort to address ways that Neskowin can respond to coastal hazards.

Speaking to the community about the proposal at the Neskowin Citizens Advisory Committee on Aug. 2, Labhart said the rules reflect the county’s desire to prevent what happened to The Capes property a few years ago where houses started to fall into the ocean.

“About five years ago, the community said: ‘We want you to do something about coastal hazard problems in our community. You are our government. We need some help (with) some of the coastal erosion issues we’re having in our village,’” he said.

The county’s response was to form the hazards committee, which ultimately resulted in the new regulations. Amongst the restrictions in the seven-part plan are new setback requirements in some zones and a requirement to make sure a new home is moveable — both horizontally and vertically, in others. For complete plan details, visit at www.co.tillamook. or.us/gov/ComDev/.

“We have listened to the community,” Labhart said to the CAC about the proposed rule changes. Though the Planning Commission closed oral comments at the close of its July 10 meeting when it originally considered the matter — and written comments on Aug. 7, concerned citizens will have another chance to make their voice heard should the Planning Commission recommend the Tillamook County Board of Commissioners adopt the plan as commissioners, too, will provide a forum for public comment during their deliberations.

Art’s on the Agenda Nestucca Valley Artisans to host art fair Aug. 23-24 at Kiawanda Community Center

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun

I

f you’re searching for a little beauty to add to your home, the Nestucca Valley Artisans may just have what you’re looking for in your effort to spruce up that bare wall or empty space.

For the 22nd year, the group, which consists of artists that reside from Rose Lodge to Sand Lake to Hebo, is hosting their annual art fair at Kiawanda Community Center.

This year’s event, set for Saturday and Sunday, Aug. 23-24, from 10 a.m.-5 p.m., will feature 15 artists and craftspeople, including some that have a yearly presence, and others that appear more irregularly and still others that are returning after a long absence. Count Nestucca Jr.-Sr. High School art instructor Mark Cavatorta in the latter category.

Cavatorta, a well-known artist who works in clay, is widely regarded for his ceramic plates and vases. He told the Sun he was looking forward to his return after a several year absence.

“I’m immersing myself in my studio (in preparation for the show), which feels really good,” he said. “It will be nice to get into the groove and hanging out with the other artists.”

Cavatorta said there was much he missed about the show and appreciates the chance to reconnect with fellow artists as well as sharing his art with those attending.

“It’s a neat experience,” he said. “I enjoy talking to people. They are really buying the story of a piece. Having the artist explain why they created what they created, that’s very important to do.”

Cavatorta also counts the breadth of nature-inspired art as amongst the show’s highlights.

“The artists try to reflect the area we live in,” he said. “The water — that has a big impact on my work being so close to the Nestucca River and ocean. That’s what artists do — they reflect the area that they are in.”

Also returning to the show after an absence is Julie Fiedler, a painter and sculptor who specializes in custompainted tiles. And there will be new faces, too, such as Thomas Goodwin, owner of Thomas Goodwin Gallery in Cloverdale. Goodwin is known for his large scale colorful abstract paintings

THE NESTUCCA VALLEY ARTISANS will host their 22nd annual art show and sale, Aug. 23-24 at Kiawanda Community Center.

that frequently suggest moving figures.

Though Goodwin is showing his art at the show for the first time, he is familiar with the show has he has attended in recent years.

“It’s great to see different artist’s work and have dialogue with people who come to see the show,” he says. “(The show is) important because people really appreciate knowing the resources that are available in the community — both the artists and the people that appreciate the art. That interaction is really important. It’s precious.”

Other artists participating in the two-day art fair include Mike Loney, a painter of realistic renderings of various subject matters with a focus on wildlife; Michael Soeby, a ceramic potter; Alita Pearl, who has been working with silver and leather for more than 25 years; Ty and Tamara Mautner, creators of Gyotaku art that explores the Japanese technique of fish printing; Bill Cary, a painter

THE 1960S-STYLE SURF SOUNDS of Don & The Quixotes will be the backdrop of a summer night of fun and revelry at the Oarhouse Bar & Grill on Saturday, Aug. 15. The Portland party band will play a selection of twangy cover songs from the 1950s to the present as well as reverbed-out originals, during a no-cover charge performance at the Oarhouse, which is located at 34455 Brooten Road in Pacific City. Combining the vintage vibe of Dick Dale and The Ventures with the irreverent whimsy of The Blues Brothers and Tony Clifton, Don & The Quixotes recall the sock hops and beach parties of the heyday of surf music, 1961-64. New originals sound like classic favorites; familiar covers are turned inside out and fully reverberated. For more information, call 503-965-6001.

Aiding the Athletes Siletz Tribal Contribution Fund awards $7,025 to two Nestucca High programs

The school received $5,000 that will be used to help pay for a new $16,000 football and track scoreboard and clock and the football program $2,025 that will be used to buy football helmets.

Nestucca Jr.-Sr. High School principal Randy Wharton told the Sun that the school had an urgent need for a new scoreboard as the old one was on its last legs. He said last fall the wireless system wouldn’t communicate from the Crow’s Nest where scorekeepers keep an eye on the action to the scoreboard.

“We ended up having to move (the scorekeeper) to within 50 feet of the clock and keep our fingers crossed,” he said.

The 16- by 12-foot score clock, which was installed in July, also brings the ability to show track times and results. The old Courtesy photo clock only provided data for football games.

He also had praise for the scoreboard manufacturer, Dektronics.

“It’s a good company,” he said. “I have dealt with them with a portable scoreboard for softball. Parts are always available and help is only a phone call away.”

Wharton said that the $2,045 donated by the tribe to purchase new football helmets also filled a huge need. The donation will cover the purchase of 10 new helmets. He added that periodic purchase of helmets is necessary because of a rule that no helmets be older than 10 years old. The school is also required to have every helmet inspected each year and replaced if defective.

“It’s a good rule,” said Wharton. “You’ve got to protect the kids there as much as you can. It’s a violent game and there are a lot of collisions.”

This Doryman is Quite a Hit Doryman Christian Lichtenthaler is pursuing his big league dreams

hristian Lichtenthaler treasures tranquil moments fishing on his dory, Mojo Risin, off Cape Kiwanda with his dad Mark and his friend and first mate, Rick Pugnam; it is the stuff of memories.

Those quiet moments have come fewer and farther between since Lichtenthaler was drafted by the San Francisco Giants onto their Minor League Baseball affiliate teams. They have been replaced with the stuff of his dreams.

The 22-year-old short stop is currently living in Scottsdale, Ariz., where he plays for the Arizona League Giants.

Lichtenthaler grew up in Albany where he has been playing baseball since he was a small child.

After graduating from West Albany High School, he attended Lower Columbia College, a community college in Longview, Wash., before moving on to Concordia University in Portland. There he studied for a degree in biology with a focus on physical therapy.

But his dream has always been to play major league baseball. Playing in the minors is the first step.

“I worked really hard to have a good season my senior year. I was really stepping it up in a big way,” Lichtenthaler said last year at Concordia.

To get to the majors he will have to prove he has all the right stuff.

“You just have to produce, to put up the numbers and prove yourself,” he said. The atmosphere is competitive and very emotional, but Lichtenthaler is “even keeled.”

“I am really shy and laid back, easy going,” he said, which has helped keep the stress down. “I take it day by day.”

Getting back on the water whenever he has a moment helps him stay focused too. He is a third

The family owns a place in Pacific City where they spend weekends and vacations.

“I enjoy the times trawling for salmon and crabbing with my dad and Rick. He is my first mate and has been a long time family friend.

“Going out tuna fishing is probably my favorite. I love it all,” Lichtenthaler said.

In fact he loves dory fishing so much, that when asked what he wanted for his high school graduation, he told his parents he wanted his own dory.

He christened it Mojo Risin, the name was taken from the song “LA Woman” by The Doors.

“It seemed appropriate,” Lichtenthaler said. “My dad and I would always listen to music at our home and one day he put on some Doors and I got hooked on it.”

acific City’s dory fleet continues to reap the treasures of the deep.

Amongst the recent hauls were a couple of Chinooks reeled in on July 27, both of which tipped the scales at 25 pounds or larger.

Amongst the recent catches was a 34-pound trophy caught on the Doc Grummel, an 18-foot mahogany dory build

by Bob Grummel, who also reeled in the impressive Chinook.

Grummel told the Sun that he’s “been catching plenty of Coho and Chinook here and there.

“The fish was a monster and a real fun catch,” said Grummel, who reports that the salmon was caught in 145 feet of water a little north of the rock.

Equally impressive was a 25-pound Chinook caught by 12-year-old Dustin Graham aboard Rob Kleiver’s dory Klevenger.

Kleiver told the Sun that he gave Graham the rod after a line, which was rigged as a downrigger, came loose.

“It gave him all he was worth,” Kleiver told the Sun. “The fish did not fight all that hard, but it was all Dustin could handle.

His eyes were big when it hit the deck.”

And that was a sight that left Kleiver fulfilled.

“I don’t care if I land another fish,” he said. “If I can watch a 12-year-old child catch a 25-pound Chinook, that’s all I need.”

RECENT CHINOOK CATCHES at the Home of the Dory Fleet have included a 25-pound Chinook caught by 12-year-old Dustin Graham (above) and a 34-pound trophy reeled in by Bob Grummel (below).

Fish and Wildlife Commission sends ODFW budget to Governor The Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission approved a $357 million budget proposal on Aug. 1 for the Department of Fish and Wildlife for the 2015-17 biennium that includes a combination of program cuts, adjustments to licenses and fees, and proposals to shift some programs from license fees to state general funds.

With Commission approval, the proposed budget will be submitted to the Governor for his consideration. Final determination of the ODFW budget would come from the 2015 Oregon State Legislature.

Changes to license fees, if approved, would take effect in 2016.

The Commission first considered the 2015-2017 agency budget in June.

In other Commission business, the 2014 coastal Chinook and coho salmon seasons were set and will be very similar to the 2013 seasons.

For coho, bag limits and open fishing periods will be identical to the 2013 season, except for a reduced quota on the Umpqua River and minor date changes. In 2014, most coho fisheries will be con-

ducted based on conservative bag limits and seasons; only three fisheries (Beaver Creek, Umpqua River and Floras River) will have harvest quotas.

On both the Big Nestucca and Little Nestucca Rivers, as well as Three Rivers, Chinoook angling is closed until Jan. 1, 2015. In the Nestucca Bay tidewater (excluding the Little Nestucca), ODFW is proposing a Sunday and Monday only season from Sept. 15-Nov. 30. One coho can be taken daily and only one during the season.

The Commission also adopted the 2015 Sport Fishing Regulations that will take effect in January.

Other regulation changes for 2015 include permanent extension of the spring Chinook season in Three Rivers to July 15.

The Commission also consolidated wildlife management area and public river access rules into one OAR Division 008 (from four different places in rule and regulation) and added some ODFW managed lands not called out in current regulations into the rules. Proposed changes to parking permit regulations were postponed.
