Poor cell phone service may be coming to an end with new ordinance

by Steve Werhly Journal reporter

Check out the July 4th celebrations on Orcas – page 9

Spotty cell phone coverage in the San Juan Islands, where boaters at Sucia Island get better reception than many Orcas residents, might be coming to an end.

Island cell phone users, county emergency service personnel and even disgruntled whale watchers at Lime Kiln Park are being promised better cellular phone service if the San Juan County Council passes the Broadband/Emergency Services/Wireless Ordinance at a June 26 public hearing.

Cell phone service has been a perennial issue for residents of all islands, but communication needs of public safety personnel and emergency service providers have been a priority concern since an ad hoc citizens group was formed in 2008 to address constraints of local land use rules

on the sites of communications antennas. If approved, the pending wireless ordinance would replace regulations on siting of cellular antenna siting that went into effect in 1997.

Drawing on recommendations of the citizens group and the planning commission, the proposed ordinance liberalizes the permitting process that would allow for more locations for cellular service antennas, especially for antennas classified as “joint use” and those that meet aesthetic and safety design standards.

“We have gone through a long process,” said County Councilman Howie Rosenfeld. “There’s things we might have done differently, but it’s something we need to get done, especially for law enforcement, firefighters and EMTs.” But it’s not a done deal quite yet. The county council recent-

Hazards on the horizon

Oil tankers harming Salish Sea?

Sounder deadlines

by CALI BAGBY Staff reporter

The proposed Cherry Point Coal Terminal near Ferndale, Wash., has been causing an outcry on the islands, but local conservationists are concerned about multiple hazards.

Nationwide environmentalist have applauded President Barack Obama’s refusal so far to authorize TransCanada proposed 1,179-mile Keystone XL pipeline running from Alberta, Canada to Nebraska, but stopping the pipeline wouldn’t necessarily mean stopping the potential risk to the islands’ ecosystem. More tar sands may be exported through the Salish Sea instead of the pipeline, according to Chom Greacen of Islands Energy Coalition, a Lopezbased organization advocating for local and sustainable energy.

“If the fossil fuel industry has its way, the risk of major oil spills will grow significantly as plans are underway to make the Salish Sea a major tanker highway for exporting coal and tar sands oil to Asia,” Greacen said. “Now our Salish Sea and the Strait of Juan de Fuca are

ly received notice from Verizon Cellular asserting that the proposed ordinance discriminates against cellular providers in favor of Orcas Power and Light Cooperative. The recent letter reiterates positions taken during public hearings on the ordinance earlier this year and has been reviewed by County Prosecutor Attorney Randy Gaylord.

Gaylord said he has vetted the ordinance as well as the arguments advanced by Verizon and others in the letter and during the public hearing process. His conclusion, which he provided to the council yesterday, is that the ordinance “addresses the concerns expressed” by the service providers and “is ready to be passed” by the council.

Council Chairwoman Patty Miller acknowledged that “there has been a question raised” about “preferential treatment.” But, she said, “I do not expect it will derail the ordinance which we expect to pass as early as next Tuesday [after the Sounder went to press].”

And none too soon perhaps for islanders weary of yelling, “Can you hear me now?” on their cellphones.

She is referring to Kinder Morgan’s 714-mile “Trans-Mountain” oil pipeline from Alberta to Vancouver, B.C., with its smaller pipeline tapping off from the main trunk to Anacortes. The line provides the only access for Canadian oil to reach the West Coast of the United States.

The system is currently capable of carrying 300,000 barrels a day and Kinder Morgan has announced plans to double that to 750,000 barrels a day.

America’s main and growing source of oil imports is from Canada, even surpassing the Middle East and Mexico, according to the

Department of Energy. More than half of the Canadian oil production in 2010 was from tar sands – a sticky tar-like form of crude oil mixed with sand and clay in Alberta, and one of the largest remaining deposits of oil in the world.

Already very large, the tar sands crude production is expected to grow 150 percent by 2025, according to the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers. The association has also said that the Canadian oil industry is in an “oversupply” situation and looking for an “outlet.”

New effort to clean harbors Library marks 20 years San Juan County and the Department of Natural Resources are working together to identify and deal with problem vessels before they sink and pollute the water. The county’s Derelict Vessel Removal Program has been proactive, according to coordinator Joanruth Baumann, but she said the statutes that define the program make it difficult to address vessels that have a highrisk potential, but may not be clearly ready to sink.

The recent incident in Penn Cove on Whidbey Island, where a vessel owner ignored state laws and repeated calls for the vessel’s compliance or removal, which led the vessel to remain in the water until it burned and sank, has propelled the county and DNR to improve the program.

Many of the coves in the San Juans have vessels that have been stored out on buoys for years, some in rough shape and clearly abandoned, said Baumann. This winter, one owner let three stored derelicts sink in Friday Harbor in less than two months, costing the public more than $21,000 and dropping debris, fuel and chemicals into the

harbor, she added.

Under Washington State marine laws, the county and DNR will work with volunteers and the Sheriff ’s Department to document vessels with expired registrations, those anchored or buoyed out on non-permitted buoys for more than the 30 days allowed, and those that seem to have been abandoned.

This project will help document boats with problems, and then the county may encourage compliance and work with owners to make needed changes. The sheriff will enforce the laws as he deems necessary.

DNR will step in by working with vessel owners and with funding. The county has received both a grant to pay for program startup from the San Juan County Action Agenda Oversight Group and some operating funds from the Port of Friday Harbor.

Additional funding will be required but will potentially be matched by DNR. For more info, call Joanruth Baumann, DVRP coordinator at 206-999-0547 or baumann@ rockisland.com.

Personal fireworks are illegal Personal fireworks are a thing of the past.

In November 2010, San Juan County voters approved an ordinance that prohibits the sale, transfer, and discharge of fireworks without a permit. The ordinance became effective on November 23, 2011.

It is unlawful for any person to possess, sell, offer to sell, use, transfer, discharge or explode any fireworks within the unincorporated areas of San Juan County, except for duly authorized public or private displays. All public/private fireworks displays must be planned, organized and discharged by a state of Washington licensed pyrotechnician. A violation carries a maximum fine of $250.

“Fireworks can injure people and start unwanted fires,” said Orcas Fire Chief Kevin O’Brien. “Last year in the state of Washington, there were 264 fires and 212 people injured due to fireworks; 89 of the fires were homes resulting in a total loss of over five million dollars. Because of the ordinance approved by the voters of San Juan County and the associated dangers of fireworks, we ask people to enjoy the public displays and refrain from using personal fireworks.”

A permit must be obtained from the county and approved by the fire marshal or designee prior to any public/private display of fireworks.

The proposal by Peabody Coal and SSA Marine to build a terminal port at Cherry Point near Bellingham to ship approximately 100 million tons of coal per year to China is really a bad idea.

The port would increase train traffic in our state and would increase shipping in the San Juan Island and the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Marine life is already impacted by the present of amount of traffic. The Cherry Point area is also a protected marine area for spawning herring.

Mining and burning coal is an industry we must give up. Besides the production of greenhouse gases, coal creates many health hazards to life. Mercury is one of the by-products of coal. To learn more about the health hazards see the website www.psr.org of Physicians for Social Responsibility.

The port proposition is undergoing the permitting process and you have time to voice your opinion.

Write to all your elected officials (state and federal) and to the Amy Corps of Engineers. Addresses can be found in the green pages of the phone book or online.

programs represent the best chance to develop the future management talent that corporations in the United States need to be competitive on a global basis.”

As part of a collaborative effort to enhance arts education, the San Juan Island School District and the Islands Museum of Art and Sculpture Park (IMA) are conducting a survey and inviting the SJI community to participate. The collected information will be used for planning and acquiring funding for future programs and arts instruction in the district. Anyone who has an interest in arts education is encouraged to participate.

Parents, especially – we’d like to hear from you! A link to the online survey can be found on the district website at www.sjisd.wednet.edu under “Announcements” on the left navigation bar. It will take about 15 minutes to complete. There are some challenging questions and you may not have knowledge about all the areas covered. That’s okay!

Just mark those questions with “don’t know.” We will learn where better communication is needed.

Murphy throws hat in the ring for mayor After weeks of serious deliberation, Murphy (a portuguese water dog), is throwing in his paws as a write-in for Eastsound Mayoral campaign. He says that he is “very disappointed in the current list of candidates” and feels that “the most important quadriped that should be in the campaign, a DOG, has been left out!”

The goat constituency on Orcas is of limited size, whereas the dog population is enormous and deserves representation in the Eastsound City Hall (yet to be built, but will be on Murphy’s agenda if elected). He is a dog of significant moral character and integrity and will be campaigning to correct what he perceives to be injustices.

He has noted that of the hundreds and hundreds of dogs on Orcas, not a one has health insurance, therefore he will be campaigning for a single-payer universal healthcare insurance for all of his canine friends.

He has yet to decide on his feline friends not because he doesn’t have any, but because he is looking at the pros and cons and the possible legal implications if he supports them.

Think how much happier our dogs will be knowing that they will be covered for rabies, distemper, heartworm, or the dreaded granulomalous meningocephalmyelitis (he’s a smart dog!). There will not be exclusions for pre-existing diseases nor a maximum cap that might lead to termination of a plan

Translated from Portuguese dog-talk by Dale Heisinger

School athletic policy needs amendment The 2011 school year has ended and I wish to share some facts surrounding the incident of November 2011 when seven athletes were dismissed.

One person decided the fate of these students by enforcing an antiquated and failed policy — one that was not followed by the administration! Penalties were handed out to athletes only and no other co-curricular students also subject to the policy.

Barbara Kline, principal and superintendent, was investigator, judge, jury and executioner in what was a “grand inquisition.”

From WIAA policy: A “School Eligibility Board” is to research accusations and make recommendations to the principal. In this case the principal made recommendations to herself?! Principal Kline now refuses to remove herself from that board. She should be reported to, not be part

of that reporting board.

Orcas school policy states as soon as a student is “suspected” of violating a contract there will be a meeting with parents and child(ren).

That meeting didn’t happen until after Mrs. Kline interviewed the students individually and behind closed doors … without a parent present. In a public meeting, when an adult admitted to Mrs. Kline that he broke the law by providing a place for a party, she did not report it to the Sheriff ’s Department.

When asked why, Mrs. Kline replied, “The Sheriff ’s Department does not care to know, they never have in the past.” According to deputies both past and present I have spoken with, that statement is false.

Only students paid for violating policy. What happened to adults who not only violated policy but the law? Absolutely nothing!

Just what are we teaching?

Parents, coaches, and representatives from interest groups have met since January to review the policy. The decision to axe students from their teams has done more harm than good – for some, sports is the only positive thing in their lives. The decision to remove a kid from a team has the opposite effect of the desired outcome.

Revisiting and revising this policy is one step in the right direction. Bringing adults to answer for their infractions would be another. Rectifying the wrong of absolute authority: priceless. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

SHERIFF’S LOG

San Juan County Sheriff’s Department reported responding to these calls:

June 7: Efforts to revive an unconscious Lopez Island man came to an abrupt halt after authorities discovered a “do-not-resuscitate” directive inside the man’s Junco Road home. A deputy had reportedly been trying to revive the 78-year-old without success for about 40 minutes before the DNR order was discovered among his household belongings.

June 11: Use of a cellphone while on the road prompted the arrest of an Orcas Island man for driving with a suspended license following a mid-morning traffic stop on Crescent Beach Road.

The 46-year-old, reportedly unaware that talking on a cellphone while driving is an infraction, was also ticketed for driving without proof of insurance, failure to transfer title of his car and for the cellphone offense. The man’s license reportedly expired 12 years ago.

June 12: Failure to buckle up led to the arrest of an

Orcas Island man for driving with a suspended license following a late afternoon traffic stop near the intersection of Main Street and North Beach Road. The 42-year-old has reportedly been driving without a license for 22 years. He was also ticketed for the seat-belt infraction.

What they’re saying ... online U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen, D-WA, called Obama’s decision to grant temporary legal status to as many as 800,000 young illegal immigrants “the humane and right thing to do.”

The decision will stop deporting some young illegal immigrants who were brought to the United States as children and who have completed high school or served in the military.

“I thought the president summed it up well when, in responding to the shouts of a right-wing reporter, he said, ‘We are a better nation than one that expels innocent young kids.’”

– Craig Canine, Orcas Island “800,000 is a large number. If we don’t allow them to stay, we just made 800,000 enemies. Their status is not their fault.”

Democrat activists oppose coal plant

State Committeewoman Sarah Cosby of San Juan Island and State Committeeman Jamie Stephens of Lopez Island led a delegation of six San Juan County Democratic activists at the convention, according to Becky Hellman, vice chairwoman of the 40th Legislative District Democrats.

Cosby served on the platform committee at the convention, working with Alison Longley of San Juan Island, to cement language drafted by Longley into the platform to “oppose the permitting of the [Whatcom County coal] terminals unless it is proven that there will be no net negative impact to the environment, human health and economy of our state.”

Supporters of the bulk-cargo coal and potash terminals had suggested changing the language, but were voted down nearly unanimously. Also at the convention was San Olson of Lopez and Diane Martindale of San Juan Island. None of the local Democrats succeeded in being elected delegates to the Democratic National Convention in September.

hazards FROM 1 nal operator Carrix – which recently filed an application to build North America’s largest coal export at Cherry Point, is causing concern on the islands that more exports could lead to more environmental hazards.

Greacen said oil tankers from Vancouver would skirt Waldron, Stuart and San Juan Islands on the west, while coal shipping vessels would come down the Rosario Strait east of Orcas and Lopez, before heading out to the Pacific Ocean.

Locals fear a spill like the oil platform explosion that fouled the Gulf of Mexico in 2010.

“When the Gulf spill happened, we had days before any of the oil came to any shore,” said San Juan County Councilwoman Lovel Pratt, in a recent commentary in the Huffington Post. “Here, we would have hours. And we’re dealing with the unique challenges of our ecology and geography that includes so much coastline and sensitive ecosystems.”

Friends of the San Juans,

an environmental advocacy group, is concerned about not just potential impacts to the ecosystem, but the threat to the local economy.

“Our islands are an international destination and a national treasure,” said the Friends in a press release.

“The 750,000 visitors that contribute $51 million to our local economy annually come up here to see wildlife, not tanker ships full of coal.”

Jason Clemens, director of research.

They are co-editors of “Making Oil and Water Mix: Oil Tanker Traffic on Canada’s West Coast.”

Spokesmen from SS Marine and Kinder Morgan have made public claims that they have a safety plan and a good record when it comes to keeping oil in their tankers.

While the majority of letters in the Sounder have been against the increase of coal and oil exports through the San Juans, local resident Jake Jacobus is concerned that people are not advocating for a healthier economy.

“We have groups here that would prohibit coal trains, ships in our waters, construction of a shipping terminal and some that would even de-industrialize our country,” he wrote in a letter (May 2, Sounder edition). “All the activities they seek to stop would produce jobs and revenues for our communities.”

For Greacen, there is still cause to worry. The fact that the Salish Sea straddles the U.S.-Canada border makes matters more complicated.

Ships that are coming out of Canada and not stopping in a U.S. port gives Washington state no jurisdiction.

Greacen said Kinder Morgan has yet to file an application with the Canadian National Energy Board to expand its pipeline.

“There is still a window of opportunity to make our voices heard,” she added.

Threat or not?

Stephanie Buffum, director of Friends, said there are major issues when it comes to ships carrying tar sand and coal, including safety of recreational boaters, threat of an oil spill, and the negative effects for marine life of ballast water and noise.

But others say that concerns over potential tanker oil spills are overstated.

The number of maritime oil spills over the last 30 years declined from a high of 18 in the 1980s to six during the 1990s, to none in the 2000s, according to Brian Lee Crowley, managing director of the MacdonaldLaurier Institute, and

Land bank acquires 20 acres on President’s Channel Purchase funded by contributions from SJPT, state salmon recovery The San Juan County Land Bank, dubbed a “truly extraordinary” agency by county interim administrator Bob Jean, received a green-light from the county council June 12 on another property acquisition.

The Jolley Property on the west side of Orcas, 20 waterfront acres on President's Channel near Turtlehead and Turtleback Mountain preserves, was officially and unanimously accepted by the county council. The county will receive a statutory warranty deed.

In a written report to the council, Land Bank Director Lincoln Borman said that “while this is an important acquisition from an ecological and open space standpoint,

Medicaid and the healthcare reform – a hot topic for newspaper headlines across the country. Now it’s up to the Supreme Court to make a decision on that reform, which could affect the lives of millions of Americans.

On Orcas Island, Rick and Marlace Hughes, owners of Ray’s Pharmacy, have debated for five years over a tough decision also on the topic of Medicaid: whether or not to accept it. Eventually they decided it was a moral obligation not a financial problem, and on June 18, the pharmacy became an official provider for the state and federal program, which covers 60 million poor and disabled people across the country.

“It’s the right thing to do,” Rick said. “People shouldn’t have to go off-island to get Medicaid.”

Center, who urged the Hughes to take on Medicaid because of the needs of islanders.

Since Ray’s is the only pharmacy in town, accepting Medicaid could make a difference to residents who need it.

When OICF conducted the islands’ community needs assessment, Canty said she learned about patients’ access, or lack of, to medications after Tamara Joyner, a San Juan County Health Department nurse, spoke of the challenges of getting medications for local families in need. She often had to arrange to get medications from San Juan or Anacortes, causing a delay that could lead to more health issues.

“I am delighted that the pharmacy is now accepting Medicaid,” Canty said. “It is one more step to helping our neighbors gain the services they need.”

cent of all children, 70 percent of nursing home residents and 40 percent of all deliveries, according to Kaiser Health News. And if a pharmacy or supplier is not enrolled, Medicaid will not pay anything for drugs or supplies.

When the Hughes purchased Ray’s Pharmacy in 2006, the previous owners did not accept Medicaid.

Rick and Marlace came to realize that it did not make financial sense to accept the program.

“And we weren’t sure if the need outweighed the financial loss, as the Friday Harbor pharmacy accepted Medicaid,” Rick said.

Ray’s Pharmacy also had a program set up to offer emergency prescriptions for those that could not afford it. But the Hughes said they wanted to figure out how to accept Medicaid and better understand its financial ramifications.

The decision to accept the program was, in part, prompted by Hilary Canty, director of Orcas Island Community Foundation, and Dr. Tony Giefer, medical director of Orcas Medical

no land bank funds were allocated due to the land bank’s diminished revenues and existing debt.”

Borman said the land bank will be working on access for hikers and that the waterfront property offers the potential kayak and canoe access “which is hard to find on that side of Orcas.”

The $650,000 transaction is funded by $250,000 from the Washington Salmon Recovery Funding Board and $400,000 from the San Juan Preservation Trust.

In exchange, the salmon funding board receives a “deed of right” ensuring the property is managed to benefit salmon and the Preservation Trust receives a “forever wild” conservation easement, which precludes development on the property.

The work is scheduled to be completed this fall.

“Many of the residents are long-term tenants,” said Jeanne Beck, OPAL’s project manager. “With a possible few exceptions for short periods of time, they will all be able to remain in their homes during the renovation project. We appreciate the patience it takes to live

through a renovation and will do our best to minimize the disruption.”

After a lengthy, competitive review process, local contractor Terra Firma, NW LLC, was awarded the contract for the work. Terra Firma’s managing partners are Justin Paulsen and Brandon Bolt. The project architect is Sharon Robinson of the Zervas Group of Bellingham, Wash.

Island Living Blast off to the

fourth

by COLLEEN SMITH ARMSTRONG

Editor/Publisher

t’s what many consider an official start to the sun-drenched days of summer: July 4th.

Celebrating our country’s independence with parades, barbecues and fireworks is a long-held tradition. Orcas Island is offering a bounty of activities.

5K Fun Run/Walk

The Funhouse-Commons will host its first annual July Fourth 5K Fun Run/Walk. There will be ribbons for age class winners. The race is Saturday July 7 at 8 a.m. and starts at the Village Green. Registration is from 7 to 7:30 a.m. The cost is $35 per person.

Old Fashioned Festival

For the second year, there will be an Old Fashioned Festival from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the Village Green. It is sponsored by the Orcas Chamber and the Orcas Island Historical Museum.

There will be food vendors, a dunk tank, tug of war, music, games for kids and hay rides.

Loggers from Deming, Wash. will demonstrate their craft. Eagle Forum will be leading a sing-along at 11 a.m. with patriotic speeches and fiddling.

Community Parade

“Celebrate Orcas Farms” is the theme for the Chamber of Commerce’s annual community parade scheduled on Saturday, July 7 in Eastsound. It runs down North Beach Road and Main Street starting at 11 a.m.

“Our island is made up of beautiful landscapes, including farms of all types that help sustain us,” said Chamber Executive Director Lance Evans. “Farming on Orcas Island has been a part of life for many years. Orcas farmers have created a bountiful harvest on the island, and it’s hard to think of a more perfect moment for all of us to ‘celebrate our farms’ than our community parade.”

Emily Reid will serve as Grand Marshal. She has been an islander for more than 50 years.

Reid grew up in eastern Washington, where the family worked as wheat farmers and cattle ranchers. Her passion is gardening and all

things floral, as evidenced by her many awards throughout the years.

The Chamber of Commerce – with the sponsorship of Island Market – is offering a $100 cash prize and two $50 Island Market gift certificates for the top three entries that most uniquely captures the theme of the parade.

Parade entry forms are available at the chamber office, www.orcasislandchamber. com, and at The Office Cupboard. The $20 group entry fee goes towards the fireworks display in Eastsound on July 4. The entry deadline for the parade is Saturday, June 30.

Fireworks donation containers are also located at various island merchants.

Lions’ Club Barbecue

The Orcas Island Lions’ Club is hosting its 37th Annual Salmon BBQ on Saturday, July 7 from to 1 to 7 p.m. This year there is a new location: the Eastsound Fire hall. Advance tickets are $15 for adults, $10 for kids. Tickets at the door are $18 for adults and $12 for kids.

Barbecue chicken dinners are also available.

The Lions’ Club is celebrating a milestone this year: its 40th birthday. Among the club’s projects: funding for eyesight and hearing care, bringing health screening unit to Orcas, hosting an Easter egg hunt, sponsoring blood drives, supporting Camp Horizon for handicaped kids and providing scholarships to local high school graduates. There are currently 50 Orcas members. For more information, attend a weekly meeting on Wednesday, noon, at the American Legion.

Rock and soul dance The Odd Fellows are having a Rock and Soul fundraiser dance to help raise money for its Community Giving Fund. The fund helps provide scholarships to community-minded high school seniors, and they also help send kids to conferences on sustainability.

The dance is on Wednesday, July 4 at 8:30 p.m. Admission is $10. There will be music from the 60s and 70s, and video performances from Woodstock, Cream, Concert for George and more.

Fireworks displays

Deer Harbor’s fireworks extravaganza is on July 3 at 10:15 p.m. with live music at 4 p.m.

The Eastsound show is between 10:15 and 10:30 p.m. A barge is coming from Lake Union and a trailer has been built for the occasion. Near Waterfront Park, the FunhouseCommons will be selling beer and hot dogs and Kaleidoscope will also have hot dogs.

Orcas resident Karl Petree is again leading the two Orcas displays.

“Eastsound’s budget has gone up, so we’re shooting up to eight-inch shells, which hasn’t been done in the last few years,” Petree said.

The chamber, which sponsors the Eastsound show, has a budget of around $8500, the same as last year. It has around $5,000 left to raise.

Enjoy this year’s lineup of events to make your July 4th memorable.

Grace McCune is getting ready to record her new album.

A girl and a piano get together to create a sonic revolution with a cast of Orcas Island musicians and a place to record it all.

Grace McCune, piano/ vocals, is recording her third solo album titled “From the Direct Box of the Soul.”

On the album, she will be joined by a cast of Orcas Islanders: Martin Lund on the clarinet and accordion, Bruce Harvie on the electric guitar, mandolin and lap steel guitar, Carolyn Cruso on the hammer dulcimer and flute, Armando Nunes on the bass, Andrew Moore on the drums, Anita Orne on the saw, Matthew Wallrath on the tuba and Al Bentley on tenor sax. From Seattle, Joel Gamble will play the violin.

The album will be engineered and co-produced

by islander Jake Perrine.

It will be recorded in Jim Breadouw’s studio. The album should be out by September.

“I am doing a kickstarter event for this CD project in which an artist can raise funds towards a project before it happens in order to get it off the ground,” McCune said.

It works as a pledge drive.

McCune has 30 days to raise $3,000. The person who donates gets to choose an award depending on how much they donate. It can be anywhere from a signed copy of the upcoming album to getting a house concert. If she does not raise the full amount, no one is charged for their donation.

Deer Harbor prepares for disaster Kindlingsfest: world class artists

Members of the disaster planning committee store emergency supplies at the Deer Harbor Inn. Left to right: David Schermerhorn, Pam Carpenter and Sheila Gaquin.

by Sheila Gaquin Special to the Sounder

Last year, shortly after the Japanese tsunami, the Deer Harbor Plan Review Committee proposed forming an ad hoc group to develop emergency response plans for Deer Harbor. An earthquake, tsunami, or wildfire could isolate the community from the rest of the island for hours or even days.

Members of the Deer Harbor Disaster Planning Committee include Pam Carpenter, Sheila Gaquin, David Schermerhorn and Bob Connor. They have been working

with the San Juan County Department of Emergency Management, the American Red Cross, the Fire Department, the Sheriff ’s Office, and Public Works to take steps to help Deer Harbor be more self-sufficient in the event of a declared disaster.

In the last year, due to the generosity of the Carpenter family, The Deer Harbor Inn has been certified as an emergency shelter by the American Red Cross. The Committee has compiled a database of volunteers and community resources, and started a blog (DHReady.blogspot.com) with information and links for residents.

Through a generous donation from an anonymous donor, the committee has been able to purchase 12 hand-held two-way radios and deployed them throughout the community for use during an emergency.

Each user has been assigned a specific neighborhood to check and see if anyone needs immediate help. The committee has also purchased a cache of emergency supplies such as cots, blankets, and personal hygiene kits and stored them at the Deer Harbor Inn. We hope none of the supplies will ever be needed, but if they are, Deer Harbor is prepared. Committee members can be contacted at DeerHarborPrepared@yahoo. com.
