New journey awaits Class of ‘14 By Scott Rasmussen Journal editor

By Scott Rasmussen Journal editor

On the heels of recent rulings in federal court, San Juan County and its Sheriff ’s Department are joining a rapidly expanding list of cities and counties limiting how far they will go to assist in rounding up those suspected of being in the U.S. illegally. As of May 23, the San Juan County Sheriff ’s Department ended its long-standing policy of honoring what is now viewed as a request by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, that anyone taken into custody, and who is suspected of being in the country illegally, be detained for up to 48 hours, long enough for immigration enforcement agents to presumably pick them up. “It means that once we’re done with them on the local level, they’re free to go,” Sheriff Rob Nou said of the change in policy. The County Council is prepared to solidify that change in sheriff department policy by crafting it into a binding resolution, which is expected to be approved at the June 17 council meeting. At the June 3 council meeting, Nou said that in a recent court decision, involving a case out of Clackamas County, Ore., a federal judge ruled Immigration and Customs See ‘HOLDS’, Page 4

New look in store for waterfront?

See CLASS OF ‘14, Page 5 Wooden frames at the site of the former Spring Street Landing Building, known as “story posts” depict the size and shape of the new building the Port of Friday Harbor plans to construct.

By Scott Rasmussen Journal editor

The wooden frames at the site of the former Spring Street Landing Building, once the home of Downriggers restaurant, are not expected to convey exactly what the structure that the Port of Friday Harbor plans to build there will look like. Not by themselves. Still, Town of Friday Harbor officials thought those frames, known as “story posts,” would offer a decent representation of

They’re more well-traveled than most, it’s safe to say. That’s part of the plan. But the passage over the horizon may have been the shortest trek of all. In quite likely their last trip together, the 14 graduates of Spring Street International School’s Class of 2014, one of the school’s largest ever, took a short stroll down the aisle, sat patiently on the stage of Friday Harbor Presbyterian Church for about 90 minutes on a sunny Saturday afternoon, and then they emerged in the world beyond, diplomas in hand, bound for new and different challenges across the continent and elsewhere around the globe. For Class Valedictorian Starla Cosgrove, it’s the perfect fit of personalities and ties that bind, strengthened and steeled by journeys abroad, and enriched by the shared experience of harnessing a myriad of academic rigors closer to home, that will leave a lasting impression. “Together we make up something amazing,” Cosgrove said in the address to her classmates.

Whale Tale cookies: ‘It’s crunch time’ Portion of proceeds to go to whale-related causes

A new San Juan Island company launched with a splash and ribboncutting ceremony last week at the Whale Museum in Friday Harbor. Whale Tale Cookies makes treats for kids with an educational twist. Each package of whale tail shaped cookies contains a trading card with an intriguing photo by a local photographer of an orca whale engaged in one of many sometimes-mysterious behaviors. The card also features child-friendly words about the importance of the endangered population of whales and ocean stewardship. The company's motto, "It's Crunch Time," is an example of the kind of play on words for which Whale Tale Cookies founder, Mike Martin is well known. A man with a passion, Martin

knows the whales are becoming more and more endangered due to environmental impact by humans, and wants to do something about it. "It's crunch time for the whales," Martin says. His background as coach of children's sports teams is evident in the way Martin pulled together an impassioned team of whale lovers, who together possess the varied skills he needed to start his dream company. "Do something you enjoy and it's not work," Martin said. "Do something you're passionate about and you'll succeed beyond you're wildest dreams. I wanted team-members who were not only passionate about their jobs, but passionate about making a difference in our world." Rebecca Parks is Whale Tales' creative director and designer. Jason Leff and Cynthia Burke bring a combination of professional baking skills, Margie Patrick keeps the team on task, and Martin handles marketing.

Fish kill tied to algal bloom, eagles Feeding frenzy follows die-off at Crescent Beach By Cali Bagby

Islands’ Sounder reporter

Dozens of eagles have been spotted swooping over the waters of Crescent Beach with their talons outstretched and their beaks ready to carry off shiny perch. Local photographer Amy Masters spent three days capturing the eagles on her Nikon. She counted as many as 23 eagles at one point. "As a person, it will be one of the moments I will remember for the rest of my life," she said. "We truly live in paradise." According to Russel Barsh, director for the Lopez-based laboratories Kwiaht, the eagles, seagulls and herons are gathering on the beach to feed on fish killed by a massive algal bloom. Barsh, who sampled and analyzed the bloom on June 8, said it was made up almost entirely of Heterosigma akashiwo, a tiny organism implicated in fish kills in western Washington and the Pacific Coast.

story gabled roof line, designed by Bainbridge Island-BC&J Architecture, harkens back to the town’s early days, when warehouses built on piers lined the edge of the harbor. Port Commissioner Greg Hertel notes that the most recent design of the replacement building and its nod to the past is favored by the town Historic Review Board. While the height of the building has drawn criti-

bloom also occurred the week before on Shoal Bay. “It is unclear how or why Heterosigma kills fish,” Barsh said in a recent press release. “One possibility is that dense clouds of this tiny organism simply pack up inside the gills of fish, like a sand storm, and make breathing difficult.” Kim Secunda, a volunteer for Kwiaht’s Indian Island Marine Health Observatory, saw at least a dozen eagles feasting on dead fish along the tide line. Most of the fish were shiner perch, a schooling fish species that congregates each summer around Indian Island to reproduce. According to Barsh these small fish are especially vulnerable to low oxygen levels. He added that birds are not in danger by eating the fish. The organism causing the fish die-off is not toxic, just a physical problem affecting the gills of fish. What can be harmful to the eagles is the influx of people watching them in action. Shona Aitken, education coordinator for Wolf Hollow, warns to be aware while driving, as eagles are prone to swooping down and could be injured by a windshield. She also recommends not getting too close to the animals. “Use a long lens so you are not affecting

cism, Hertel said the story posts do not show the view corridors between the building structures or reflect the open space that will be available on the deck and public plaza that will extend out toward the harbor, both of which are new. The roof line is about one-half to threequarters of a story taller than the previous building, he said. “There’s a view through the middle that was never there before,” Hertel said. “There’ll be some impact, no doubt about. But I think we’ve gained more than we’ll

their behaviors,” Aitken said. She added that these birds may be beautiful to observe, but they are also fierce predators. The biggest birds are females and the average weight of local bald eagles is about 10 to 12 pounds. People are pretty amazed when they hear that,” she said. She guesses that these predators of the sky will be seen at Crescent Beach until the fish are gone. “They are taking advantage of this bonanza,” she said.

ment discussion at the local level,” Thomas said. The rulings in federal court have unleashed a wave of recent policy changes for local law enforcement agencies, and for cities and counties as well, and in Oregon and Washington state in particular. As many as 30 counties in Oregon and 11 in Washington state, including King, Skagit and Whatcom, no longer honor ICE holds. In response to a Journal inquiry, ICE Public Affairs Officer Andrew Munoz responded by email: “When law enforcement agencies remand criminals to ICE custody rather than releasing them into the community, it helps contribute to public safety and the safety of law enforcement,” Munoz said in the email reply. “To further this shared goal, ICE anticipates that law enforcement agencies will comply with detainers.” However, Munoz also noted that ICE has re-calibrated its use of “detainer holds” in light of the recent court rulings. “… ICE issued new detainer guidance limiting the use of detainers to individuals who meet the agency’s enforcement priorities and restricting the use of detainers against those arrested for minor misdemeanor offenses such as traffic violations and other petty crimes,” he added. “The guidance helps ensure that available resources are focused on apprehending convicted felons, repeat offenders and other ICE priorities.” The request for a detainerhold by local law enforcement is just one of various policing tools that ICE wields in its enforcement of U.S. immigration laws.

of islanders have also been detained and many deported since the U.S. Border Patrol began ramping-up the use of its so-called “citizenship spot-checks” at the Anacortes ferry terminal several years ago. Nou recalls the manner in which the sheriff department interacts or cooperates with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, as well as with the federal “Secure Communities” initiative, was a hot-button issue with islanders during the sheriff ’s campaign four years ago. Back at the sheriff ’s department, Nou said once release conditions are satisfied following an arrest, such as posting bail, an individual in custody would be free to go, unless they are subject of a valid warrant from another law enforcement agency. Still, he doesn’t anticipate that the change in policy will have much impact on the department’s day-to-day operations. In fact, Nou said a recent review of records reveals the department has not used an ICE detainer on anyone taken in custody in recent years. “Operationally, I don’t see the change having any real impact,” he said.

Peterson, Hyde join CSA board Rich Peterson and Dave Hyde have been appointed to the Common Sense Alliance board of directors. The two San Juan Island residents join the CSA board following a unanimous decision by the board at its June 3 meeting. A former fire chief in Santa Barbara, Calif., Peterson and family moved to San Juan Island after a 29-year career in firefighting. He was elected to the County Council in 2006 and served six years. Peterson was elected commodore of the San Juan Island Yacht Club in 2008, studies industrial arts and is a professional metal sculptor, with two public art displays. Peterson will join another former county elected official on the CSA board, Orcas Island's John Evans, a former three-term county commissioner. “Rich has experience as an elected San Dave Hyde Juan county councilman and has a strong interest in assessing how local government can protect the quality of life for all our citizens," Evans said. "His views will serve to further strengthen CSA.” Founded in 2009, Common Sense Alliance is a grassroots, non-profit organization whose mission is to keep islanders informed about San Juan County's proposed

Continued from page 1 her classmates over the years in all type of pursuits as well. She also urged them not to overlook the journey of others. “And lastly, don’t forget to give back.” Peppered with smiles and applause, the soon-to-be graduates were greeted by a warm welcome from family, friends and well-wishers as they passed by the church pews and stepped up onto the stage. They were swarmed by an even more enthusiastic embrace on stage after tassels had been turned and caps lofted ceremoniously into the air. In between, in keeping with Spring Street commencement tradition, English instructor and academic dean Heather June bestowed upon the graduates a single word that describes the personality of each, which were then underscored and embodied in a brief piano melody by musical instructor Grisha Krivchenia. A slide-show tracing the journey of each graduate, from childhood to adulthood, followed. Of the 14 graduates, the majority will be immersed in study at a four-year university or college come the fall, and with a financial wind under their sails. The class together amassed nearly $320,000 in collec-

tive scholarships from the schools of their choice. Most are headed to an institution of higher learning in Oregon or Washington, while Tianji Hao and Julia Miller, international students and recipients of the Washington State Honors Award for being among the top 10 percent of state high school graduates, based on GPA and SAT scores, are bound for college in southern California. In her commencement address, Wendy Wood, executive director of Friday Harbor-based Africa Foundation USA, encouraged the graduates to work hard, be persistent, be authentic and, with a nod to the “transformative power of travel,” to take risks, the well-calculated kind. Spring Street’s Head of School Louis Prussack counseled that the class would be well-served to find meaning, purpose and direction in the years to come by cultivating their passion and creativity, and by taking time to travel and to reflect upon those journeys as well. Don’t expect it to come all at once, Prussack advised. “It is in creativity that you’ll find peace along your journey, and find the calm that will enable you to focus,” he said. “You won’t know your passion until you find it.” For the Class of 2014, a new journey begins.

OPINION Letters to the Editor

Worthy program devalued by LTAC

I recently read that the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee overlooked the Youth Conservation Corps of Lopez, Orcas and San Juan when recommending grants for the coming year (“Parks wins lion’s share of lodging fund,” May 21, pg. 2). Each of the recipients of funds totaling $409,000 are worthy organizations. Their missions enhance the islands for visitors and residents alike. Similarly, the Youth Conservation Corps also makes a positive contribution to the visitor experience. In years past, you could observe several crews throughout the islands in the summer months providing trail and recreation site maintenance, noxious weed eradication, litter collection, and beach clean up. These collective efforts— in coordination with BLM, county Parks, the National Park Service, county Land Bank, SJ Preservation Trust, U.S. Fish and Wildlife, and the SJ Noxious Weed Board—assist with the stewardship of our amazing public lands. Visitors and residents enjoy the fruits of their labors all throughout the year. In turn, the youth participants gain invaluable work and educational experience. This exposure will serve them well as they prepare for further work opportunities and future leadership roles in government, busi-

ness and the arts in our communities and beyond. If we continue to support and expand this novel program, visitors to the San Juan Islands who are out enjoying our beautiful public spaces may encounter the youth work crews and marvel not only at the amazing natural surroundings of this archipelago, but also at how our island communities have taken positive steps to engage our youth with the stewardship of their unique environment. Let’s ensure that all worthy and deserving causes are served by the lodging tax revenue. Please join me in suggesting that at least a portion of these funds go to support this endeavor by contacting Bob Jarman, Jamie Stephens or Rick Hughes at council@ co.san-juan.wa.us. Alternatively—or perhaps in addition—consider making a personal, tax deductable contribution directly to the Youth Conservation Corps of Lopez, Orcas, and San Juan.

New health care crisis hits home

As an interested and hopefully unbiased observer of the state of medical care on this island, I attended the May 2014 meeting of the County Council’s Board of Health. At that gathering, I stated with some passion that we have a crisis in primary care on San Juan Island that is at least as important as the other “usual” issues discussed (argued about? evaded?). This extends to but is not limited to women’s health care in general and mental health services for children and youth. The present cadre of primary care providers is dangerously shorthanded and are themselves approaching the end of their careers. In the absence of strategic planning, within a few years there will be no primary care for our people. The bigger issue is that the stakeholders—care providers of all persuasions, clients, government services, hospital districts, philanthropists, etc., each have their own agenda and do not talk to each other. Grants or other catalysts are not prerequisites to begin real conversations. I

firmly believe that if this had occurred several years ago there would be a single group practice serving San Juan Island, a real system of care, and no hospital. What has happened is the full manifestation of Edmund Burke’s iron law of unintended consequences: a toxic and inevitably fatal mix of private, public, and ecclesiastical institutions that do not address our collective needs and has left most of us out of the process. There must be a stepping back, a significant correction, a change of the focus of control, and a community wide approach addressing our real needs. In this rapidly changing national medical environment coupled with our unique geography, costs, and demographics, the absence of a plan for remediation and a strategic vision for the future has placed us all at real risk. The council and the town need to own this, not sub-

As I See It

Wednesday, June 18, 2014 — 7

Of fresh starts, Marine reserves; why they matter Helping fishery stocks recover is among harbor views the many benefits created by preserves uild it and they will come. Isn’t that how the saying goes? But what happens if a long-awaited project gets sidetracked by an endless tug-of-war, consumed by mind-numbing debate or drowned in a dithering over details? Will they leave? Just not show up? Here’s hoping that won’t happen. There’s a lot at stake in the eventual construction of the Spring Street Landing Building, the Port of Friday Harbor’s replacement for the antiquated structure that was once home to Downriggers and several other waterfront businesses. Mark June 26 on your calendar. that’s when the town council will begin its review of the new building and determine whether its qualifies for a shoreline permit. The meeting, an evening session, will be at Brickworks, oddly enough. It seems not that long ago that plans for Brickworks itself drew a hefty dose of criticism... hmmm. The “story posts” put up by the port are intended to offer some conception of how the views of and around the waterfront, and of the harbor, will be affected by the building and its design. Look around town, or on the Web, and you’ll also find artist drawing of its features and what it will look like. And, whether satisfied, or not, the floor is now open to voice your opinion. You know where.

What are marine reserves, and why do we care about them on San Juan Island? The terminology for various forms of ‘protected’ areas in the ocean is vastly confusing: Marine Stewardship Area, Preserve, Protected Area, Sanctuary, Conservation Area, Voluntary Reserve… all these are set up to protect some resources by limiting the type and amount of human activities allowed in them – but the range of such activities, and the agencies in charge, vary widely. In Washington state, this issue is made even more confusing because jurisdiction over inter-tidal and sub-tidal land and resources are very complex, with private versus public ownership, control of the bottom by the Washington Department of Natural Resources but of animals in the water by Fish and Wildlife, and other facets by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Coast Guard; if you don’t understand it, it’s not just that you haven’t been paying attention. In 1923, The San Juan Archipelago was first designated a marine biological preserve by the Washington state legislature, and the director of the marine station was given responsibility for preservation of its marine resources. In 1969, the legislature reiterated this control of the “marine biological materials” to the director of the UW Friday Harbor Labs, except those gathered for human food, in the “salt waters and the beds and shores of the islands constituting San Juan county”; this regulation was updated in 2003. The University also actually owns the tidelands in a number of areas (such as False Bay, purchased in 1974) and Argyle Lagoon and its saltwater creek (purchased in 1984 after leasing for many years) and manages those as more strict biological reserves. Layered on top of that are a variety of marine protected areas that are managed by WDFW, and where harvesting of

home. But if the broadband is only sourced from wireless towers those like me who spend at least two hours a day on the internet will be exposing ourselves daily to radiation at levels that will cause adverse biological health effects. Right now our students at the Lopez School and our health team at the Lopez Medical Clinic are increasingly under hours and hours of harmful exposure from wireless connections to laptops and tablets. Below is a list of the most recent papers finding adverse biological effects or damage to health from WiFi signals, WiFi-enabled devices or WiFi frequencies (2.4 or 5 GHz). Papers listed are only those where exposures were below 16V/m. Someone using a WiFienabled tablet computer can be exposed to electromagnetic fields up to 16V/m. JULIENNE BATTALIA Lopez Island

Monument plan marks milestone

Two weeks ago the BLM hosted gatherings to enlist aid from our communities in composing the San Juan Islands National Monument interim management policy. Three meetings were well-attended and wholly participant—it was a great succcess. With the Resource Management Plan completion possibly four years away, it’s important for everyone to know the solid ground we stand on to ensure that the best can happen, and to understand how to bring that about. We learned a great deal. Every one of the gatherings brought useful and unique contributions to the draft and there were lots of thought-provoking conversations that are applicable to day to day actions. I want to

most species (except, often, salmon and herring) is prohibited. In each case, reserves are set up as management tools to help (in the words of WDFW) “protect and conserve fragile or unique habitats, species and culturally historic sites, enhance fisheries abundance and biodiversity.” Some types of areas are meant to provide recreational and educational opportunities, while others limit recreational use where there are particularly sensitive resources or habitats. The UW biological reserves have the overarching goals of maintaining and restoring native biodiversity and ecosystem function, and facilitating education and research that is consistent with these goals. Is this important? To provide a bit of broader context, worldwide, there are international calls for 20 percent of the world’s oceans to be protected in some form. This month the U.S. State Department is hosting an “Our Ocean” conference; one of the goals there is to "dramatically accelerate protections for U.S. waters" in marine reserves, because of the documented role these can play in helping fishery stocks recover. There are tons of scientific studies demonstrating that See MATTER, Page 8

Changes in health coverage; beware

Changes in healthcare have been tough on all of us. Recently there have been some issues which have a major impact on many of

the residents of the county. I thought it worth going over a few of these so people are not caught unaware. Patients signing up through the healthcare exchange are being told to get a physical. This has been touted nationally and statewide as part of your preventive benefits. When people have signed up on the exchanges they have often been told it is a “free benefit” and they should use it right away to be sure their insurance is active before getting any of the other services that might cost them out of pocket. Unfortunately, comprehensive preventive exams-what we might call our annual physical--is a noncovered service for anybody aged 40-plus if your medical insurance is Medicaid (also known as DSHS or Apple Health), or the Medicaid health maintenance organizations Molina Healthcare, Community Health Plan of Washington, Amerigroup, or Coordinated Care Health.

in no-harvest areas, fish are not only more abundant but they also grow larger and produce many more offspring; this results in an ‘overflow’ into adjacent regions, ultimately increasing harvestable stocks. Marine reserves, such as those that contain eelgrass beds or salt marshes, also provide nursery areas for crab and other commercial species. More subtly, marine reserves protect natural processes, by providing areas where organisms and their environment can interact in the ways in which they evolved. For example, in False Bay, natural processes of sedimentation, disturbance by waves, and input of dead plant and animal matter from land and sea provide a rich sanddwelling community that feeds resident and migrating shorebirds as well as resident and migrating fishes. People who dig for clams disrupt those communities, and dogs that run loose often chase away the shorebirds that rely on places like False Bay for “tanking up” during migrations. Finally, reserves provide a baseline against which to measure the effects of activities outside them. Because

the impacts of harvesting and other activities are often unknown, that hedge against unanticipated effects can be of practical importance. For example, the no-fishing reserves in San Juan Channel have allowed study of how this restriction affects diversity and sizes of both fish and their prey, when compared against adjacent open-to-fishing areas. Likewise, the closedto-clamming areas in Garrison Bay not only create healthy clam populations (and spread larvae to other areas), but also make it possible to do research on the relative roles of digging holes versus actual harvest. A large number of experiments contributing to our understanding of local marine resources have been done within San Juan County’s various marine reserves. Many of these sites are also used by the UW FHL K-12 Outreach program for teaching local school children about science and marine life. Ultimately, marine reserves and the understanding they promote benefits fishermen, shorebirds and bird-watchers, orcas, and people who simply love being surrounded by pockets of relatively pristine marine habitats. In summary, marine reserves help preserve and protect our fragile marine environment.

ome will celebrate with a picnic basket and walk in the woods. Others with body paint and a bonfire, so we hear. Still, others will gather by the shoreline to sing a song or two, fingers crossed, hoping the orca whales will make a timely appearance and pass by the waterfront of Lime Kiln State Park, perhaps drawn instinctively to the sound of the human voice in harmony. And then there's a few that might take refuge in the shadows and howl at the moon, once it arrives on the scene. The celebration of the summer solstice takes many forms on San Juan Island. And for the hard-core athletic enthusiast, this year's solstice marks a turning point, as the annual San Juan Island Marathon, with a brand new course lying in wait (for the half-marathon and 10K events as well), and the Three Lakes Triathlon all come together on the weekend that's also home to the longest day of the year. Fortunately, one need not venture far to enjoy these grueling and, for some, competitive athletic events, at least not as a spectator. Distance is definitely a different matter, for the participants. That's because for the first time ever Lakedale Resort will play host to both events, with the Triathlon on Saturday, followed by Sunday's marathon, half-marathon and 10K run. The Three Lakes Triathlon features three events and a pair of race options, indi-

vidual and relay format. Those competing in the "Olympic" option, either relay or individual, will test their mettle with a .93 mile swim, 25 mile bicycle ride and a 10K run. Distances for the "Sprint" option are roughly half those of the Olympic events. The competition gets under way at 9 a.m. A post-race award ceremony and barbecue begins at 5 p.m. Participants of the San Juan Island Marathon and its companion events will test their mettle against a brand new course this year (and yes, the new course also features a few hills). Whether any runner will be able to best the 2013 winning time of 3:00:55, set by Robert Nelson of Seattle, or the eyepopping record for the event, 2:38:00, set by Ellensburg's Manuh Santos in 2008, remains to be seen. To conjure up a mental image of the new 26.2-mile course, envision a giant, sideways figure eight, with start and finish lines at Lakedale. The line of the first loop traces Egg Lake to Beaverton Valley roads, bends along Mitchell Bay and Westside roads, completes a loop as it moves along Wold Road to Beaverton Valley, back to Westside Road and then bends around Roche Harbor Road and back to Lakedale. The 13.1-mile half-marathon follows the route of the marathon until reaching a "Turn Around Point" on Mitchell Bay Road, where runners will double back to West Valley Road and then hit the home stretch on Roche Harbor Road. Now in its 12th year, the San Juan Island Marathon is sponsored by Kings Market and Island Athletic Events.

stuff Firewood, Fuel & Stoves

NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the seller’s and buyer’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a cord by visualizing a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.

Education ambassador honored Kiwanis Club “Everyday Hero” puts new twist on retirement

Longtime educator Connie Goff has a passion for language, reading and the written word. But could it be that she doesn't quite get the meaning of the word "retirement?" Even after 50 years in the teaching profession, Goff is still going strong, spending up to 40 hours a week helping children learn how to read at Friday Harbor Elementary School. The only difference now is that for Goff, it's no longer a job. She volunteers. Why? "Because it's just so important to get off to a good start in school," she said. "And reading is just so important." It's equally important for San Juan Island Kiwanis Club to recognize the contributions of extraordinary volunteers. That's why Kiwanis selected Goff for its "Everyday Hero" award, and presented her with the honor June 12 at a school assembly. In addition to a medallion and framed plaque, the award comes with dinner for two at Vinny's Ristorante. Following a decades-long career teaching

IT’S ELECTRIFYING! SEVEN STEPS TO ELECTRICAL SAFETY OPALCO Linemen are first responders for public safety. You can count on your Co-op to take care of downed lines and other power emergencies. If you see downed lines or other power emergencies, be a hero: call 911. OPALCO is serious about safety. Did you know? Some of our power lines are energized at 69,000 volts. That is nearly 300 times more than the voltage in the wires of your home. Electricity is a part of our everyday lives and must be treated with respect. Everyone should know the 7 Steps to Electrical Safety. Learn them and pass them on. Remember, they don’t call it power for nothing!

1. 30 feet to safety

Stay back at least 30 feet from any fallen power line or exposed underground cable. NEVER try and touch or move downed power lines. Call 911 and OPALCO will respond.

in the Edmonds area, Goff and her husband, Richard, relocated several years ago to San Juan Island, where they purchased property three decades earlier. She taught for five years at Friday Harbor Elementary, as an employee, before retiring from the profession, but certainly not from the classroom. The gift of learning remains a wonder to behold, she said. "Each child is like a little puzzle," Goff said. "You try to figure out their needs and try to help them grow. To see them grow is just amazing."

5. Shuffle or hop - don’t step If your vehicle makes contact with an energized line, remain inside until help arrives. If you must get out due to fire, jump out with your feet together. Then shuffle away, keeping both feet close together. Never contact the ground and your vehicle at the same time.
