Public comment sought in return of Makah whaling The public has until June 11 to comment on a draft environmental impact statement on the Makah Nation’s long-pending request to resume hunting gray whales off the North Olympic Peninsula. The National Marine Fisheries Service of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration released the 1,229-page draft study Friday, March 6. The draft study proposes six different options ranging from not allowing any hunting at all to allowing up to 24 North Pacific gray whales to be harvested in coastal waters within a sixyear period. They are:
FORKS
• Alternative 3 also would prohibit Makah hunters from making an “initial strike” within 5 miles of shore and would set a probable “mortality limit” of 2.7 whales a year. • Alternative 4 would limit the hunt to June 1-Nov. 10 to avoid killing endangered Western Pacific gray whales — a population distinct from resident whales — and limit mortality to one member of the Pacific Coast Feeding Group that ranges from Northern California to northern Vancouver Island. • Alternative 5 would open two 21-day-long hunting seasons —

BEAVER
Dec. 1-21 and May 10-31 — to avoid killing a Western Pacific gray whale or a feeding-group whale, thus limiting the hunt to a local population of whales. It also would set a probable limit of 0.27 whales a year, including any whale struck but not landed. • Alternative 6 would limit strikes to seven a year and set a probable mortality limit of 2.25. The Marine Mammal Protection Act moratorium waiver would expire after 10 years and a permit to hunt would last no more than three years. The draft’s source — the fisheries service of NOAA, a division of the U.S. Department of Commerce — will accept written comments on the draft

for three months. By late April the fisheries service may hold public meetings in Neah Bay, Port Angeles and Seattle on the alternatives. Similar meetings on an earlier draft environmental impact statement included sessions in Silver Spring, Md., near Washington, D.C., to accommodate national animal-advocacy groups. Written comments can be submitted by e-mail to Makah2015DEIS.wcr@noaa. gov. The draft also is available at public libraries in Clallam Bay and Forks. Copies on CD are available by contacting Steve Stone at 503-231-2317 or steve.stone@ NOAA.gov.

• Alternative 2 would let the Makah harvest as many as five Eastern North Pacific gray whales a year and a maximum of 24 over six years in tribal ocean fishing grounds except for a zone around Tatoosh Island and White Rock. No more than seven whales could be “struck” — penetrated by harpoons or bullets — in a year and no more than three struck and lost. The National Marine Fisheries Service, furthermore, could limit the harvest to
three whales a year if the whale population was shrinking.

• A no-action alternative would not authorize a whale hunt but would continue a 2004 moratorium under the Marine Mammal Protection Act in a decision by the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

Dear Editor, Here we go with another fight for funding. Our program on the peninsula is slated to get cut $22,000 over the next two years. Write letters to your congressmen, join the WEECARE Coalition group at weecarecoalition.org for updates, let’s do what we can to get our funding back in where it is needed. We cannot serve all of the infants and toddlers in two counties that may need a little boost to meet their milestones and thus be ready for kindergarten with these cuts in our budget. We know that early intervention works, getting help
early is the key to success for many children and it is cost effective. Please give your support, there is power in numbers. Pick up the phone, call, write, Kevin Van De Wege and Steve Tharinger need our support to help save these programs.

Beaver and Forks firemen responded to a fire at 250 Tyee Ridge Road, at 11:30 a.m. Saturday. The home, which was under repairs, caught on fire due to the burning of rubbish near the back of the unoccupied house. The fire was quickly extinguished. No injuries were reported. Photo by Lonnie Archibald

Laboratory testing could help determine whether Clallam County has its fifth case of measles this year or if the symptoms seen in a child are caused by recent vaccination. Clallam County Department of Health and Human Services is treating this situation as a measles case so that the community is protected if testing ultimately verifies measles illness. HHS staff is working with the child’s family on quarantine in case the tests confirm measles. Meanwhile, health authorities continue to make measles vaccine available at no cost to local residents at a series of vaccination clinics around the community. Clinic dates, times, and locations – as well as the latest on the local measles outbreak – are available at www.clallam. net/HHS/PublicHealth/alerts.html. Measles is highly contagious even
before the rash starts and is easily spread when an infected person breathes, coughs or sneezes. If you are not vaccinated, you can get the measles just by walking into a room where someone with the disease has been in the past couple of hours. Children should be vaccinated with two doses of measles, mumps and rubella vaccine, with the first dose between 12-15 months and the second at 4-6 years. Adults who have not had measles and were born after 1956 should have at least one measles vaccination; some people need two. A no cost clinic will be done at CCHHS Public Health Section, 111 E. Third St., Port Angeles from 1-7 p.m. March 12. Call 360-417-2274 for an appointment. Walk-ins will be seen but there may be a waiting time.

THE REAL FORKS Me-Haul? By Christy Rasmussen Ford If you don’t know me, you should know that I’m roughly as tall as the average third-grader. For this reason, I prefer to drive smaller vehicles. Anything larger than a Barbie Jeep requires me to use a booster seat. Therefore, when it came time to decide who would drive the ginormous U-Haul during our recent move, it just made sense for it to be me. Actually, it didn’t make any sense at all, but for whatever reason, I volunteered to do it. When I walked into the U-Haul place on moving day, I half expected the U-Hauler specialists to tell me that I wasn’t tall enough to ride that ride. At the very least, they should have asked if I had a parent or guardian to supervise. It became clear that they were desperate for business when they handed me the keys without even asking to see my booster seat. Despite having no experience driving a vehicle the length of a football field, things started out amazingly well. Maybe it was just beginner’s luck, but I was doing great. Then I turned the truck on. This was where things went downhill. I asked my husband where the cruise control button was. Apparently, these trucks don’t come with cruise control. This was a major problem for me as I can never be trusted to maintain speed on my own. Thankfully though, the cops had achieved their monthly ticket quota and had no intentions of writing any that day. I only had to drive from Port Angeles to the Hoh and back to Forks so it wasn’t too long of a trip. Unfortunately, I had to drive around Lake Crescent. I’m man enough to admit that I drove like a tourist all the way around. OK, I’m not a man (and men don’t admit their faults freely anyway), but to be honest, my driving went something like this: break, 10 MPH, brake, 10 MPH … you get the idea. I probably should publicly apologize to the 32 cars that were behind me when we finally got to the end. Sorry for not using the turnouts guys. I just wanted to get through that nightmare quickly. Everything after the lake was easy-peasy with the exception of the 4,000 bridges which I happened to drive across with a log truck going the other way EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Like any experienced big rig driver going across a narrow bridge, I just closed my eyes and prayed, “Please don’t wreck, please don’t wreck, please don’t wreck.” This expert driving technique worked well for me as I never wrecked. I successfully completed my U-Haul adventure two days later with a new appreciation for truck drivers. I have no idea how you all go 95 mph around the lake, but well done! Perhaps next time I will do better with my booster seat. For questions, comments or to offer me a truck driving job, please e-mail me at christyrasmussen@yahoo.com. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR POLICY
The Forks Forum belongs to the readers of the newspaper. The opinion section is the place where reader thoughts appear as letters to the editor. Letters longer than 300 words are sent back to the writer for revision. We only edit for spelling and grammar. Any substantial changes are sent to the letter writer for revision. While we strive to publish all letters, those focusing on local issues take precedence over statewide or national issues. No personal attacks or unsubstantiated allegations are accepted. Those letters are returned to the writer with an explanation why the letter is not going to run in its existing form. Deadline for letters to appear is noon the Monday before publication. Letters are published on a space-available basis, with time-sensitive letters on local issues taking first priority. There are times, therefore, when a letter might not appear for a week or two. Letters to the editor can be mailed to the Forks Forum, PO Box 300, Forks, WA 8331; e-mailed to editor@forksforum.com; faxed to 374-5739; or dropped off at our office at 44 S. Forks Ave. All letters must have a name, address and telephone number for verification purposes. Only the writer’s name and hometown are printed in the newspaper.

Happy Anniversary, Forks Elks Lodge On March 15 the Forks Elks Lodge will mark its 40th year in our community. From a front page story from March 13, 1975, Ed Marion told the story of how it all came to be. This is a portion of the column.
Forks Elks by Ed Marion “Well, we are down to two more days before we are a regularly instituted lodge of the Elks. It has been a long, hard fight, but we won. Forks will now have its own Elks Lodge. At first when this all started there were moments of doubt in the minds of everyone, including me. But for a few weeks now we have known that we were going to make it all the way and that everything would be OK. We just needed to build our membership up to the point where our income as a lodge was large enough to take care of all the needs of the lodge. We now have that membership. Our income will take care of all the needs of the lodge and provide for our community projects, with enough left over to start our growth program, our own lodge building. This lodge will belong to the community, not just a select few. We will be taking applications up until the last moment
on Saturday. If you get your application in, know you will still be a charter member of the lodge. As our organization committee is phased out and the lodge takes over, there are a few people that we should recognize for their hard work that has made this lodge. First of all Gordon Otos who served as chairman, Dick Streeter who served as our first treasurer, and Roy Ullas who took over from Dick. To Bruce Hausle who served as our chaplain. To Speed Browning, Art Stacy, Al Anderson, Tom Kraft, Jim Caudill, Gary Cross, Harry Broadbent and others that worked on the investigation committee. To Gary Cross, Gary Fisk and Lawrence Vail for their work as the social committee. Then there are all the other men who have served on other committees, men whose names would take up an entire page to name them all. And last but not least those wonderful wives for being so understanding during all this. Thanks girls, you have done a most outstanding job, and thanks to all the men who have joined the lodge, you have made our dream come true. Forks Lodge #2524 is now here to stay. On Saturday, March 15, 1975, Forks Elks Lodge will be instituted.”
We stand out from the herd. How? We focus on the West End.
If it happens here, you’ll hear about it first from

Your locally focused newspaper.
At 3:30 Saturday, March 15, 1975, the first installation of officers took place. A reception at the Vagabond followed and then later that evening a dinner and dance took place at the Hangar at the Quillayute Airport. The Elks later built a lodge at 941 Merchant Road. A few years ago the Forks Elks Lodge was facing what many lodges around the country were facing, low membership and fear of closing. But, members rallied and the Elks lodge is back stronger than ever. Each month the Elks have multiple activities at the lodge in addition to supporting youth activities and scholarships the Elks continue to make a difference in our community. Thanks Elks and Happy Anniversary! Christi Baron, editor

CITY SEEKING HELP WITH SURVEY The City of Forks is asking for your help in its efforts to comply with a state requirement to update the City’s Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan helps establish policies, goals and objectives for the next 7-10 year period.

The survey is available online at www.surveymonkey.com/r/ ForksCompPlan, via the link on the city’s website, or you can fill out a paper copy of the survey which is available at Forks City Hall. All surveys need to be completed by March 31. Beckwith has agreed to draw from those surveys that are completed and signed, one person’s name to receive from him a $250 gift certificate.

Local photographer’s work showcased at P.C. site Local freelance photographer Jeff Ferguson’s work is on display at Peninsula College in Forks through March 30. The exhibit consists of 16 spectacular color photographs on large format canvas, taken at various Inland Northwest Pow Wows over the past three years. Ferguson’s idea was to display imagery that highlights the colorful and intricately detailed, handmade regalia worn by Native American dancers at Native celebrations throughout the Inland Northwest. Much of the regalia consists of various materials including beadwork, porcupine quillwork, buck-
skin, eagle feathers, ribbons, seashells and bells. Some of the regalia utilizes authentic traditional techniques that require various external and internal parts of animals like beavers, deer, elk, hawks and many others indigenous to the area. Although some of the regalia is just for show, much of it is functional for traditional everyday life, celebrations and ceremonies. This exhibit is made possible by the Potlatch Fund, a community foundation and leadership development organization dedicated to inspiring the Native tradition of giving and
expanding philanthropy within Tribal Nations and Native communities of the Northwest. Ferguson, owner of J. Fergu-
son Photography, was born in Pullman, raised in Spokane and resides in Beaver. He has lived, worked and traveled extensively throughout the United States. He is a Spokane Tribal member who holds an associate degree in photography from Spokane Falls Community College and bachelor’s degree in communications from Whitworth University. He finds much of his inspiration from both the urban and rural areas of the Inland Northwest and his Native heritage, but also from great photographers such as Edward Curtis, Lewis Hine, Richard Avedon, Mary Ellen
Mark, Ansel Adams and Joel Grimes, as well as great visual artists such as Warhol, Monet, Picasso, and Kandinsky. Although most of his work is commercial, editorial, portraiture and sports photography, his passions lie in documentary video, nature and landscape photography and cultural preservation. The community is invited to attend a reception with Ferguson Monday, from 6:30-8 p.m. March 16. For more information, contact Deborah Scannell, site coordinator at Peninsula College at Forks, at dscannell@pencol. edu or 360-417-6435.

Archibald photo showcase and book signing
Hula Hoop it up in Clallam Bay!
Lonnie Archibald’s latest book.
ONRC will host Lonnie Archibald with a showcase of photos and a book signing for his latest work: “Here on the Home Front: World War II in Clallam County.” This event will be from 2-5 p.m., Saturday, March 14, in the Social Hall at UW’s Olympic Natural Resources Center in Forks. He and his camera are a familiar sight around the Olympic Peninsula as he chronicles community events and breaking news for the Forks Forum and Peninsula Daily News. Not only have his photos been included in Seattle, Tacoma, Olympia and Alaskan newspapers, they have been shown by the Associated Press, CNN and Fox News. Many of his photographs have won awards for outstanding images, including the “News Photo of the Year” by the Washington Newspaper Publishers Association in 2011. Saturday’s event is an informal opportunity to view some of Archibald’s photography, have him sign copies of his newest
book and share some conversation with him over his favorite photos. A long-time Westender, Archibald joined the Forks community in 1957. Over the years he has combined his passion for photography and journalism with published works in outdoor magazines, newspapers and books. Working in collaboration with Ron Shearer and the Forks Lions Club, Archibald undertook a series of interviews with West End pioneers, creating a collection of more than 50 video recordings. These videos, “In Search of a Memory,” comprise one of the most extensive collections of area pioneer biographies and are now available to view at the Forks Timber Museum and the Forks Library. His first book “There was a Day: Stories of the Pioneers” was published in 1999. His skill has truly made the legacy of day-to-day life in the peninsula’s past available to future generations. He currently belongs to the West End Historical Society and enjoys recording local stories, free-lance photography, sharing time with family and fishing on the area rivers. The Olympic Natural Resources Center is at 1455 S. Forks Ave., Forks. ONRC is part of the University of Washington’s School of Environmental and Forest Sciences. “Evening Talks” at ONRC are funded by the Rosmond Forestry Education Fund. Refreshments will be served and potluck of your favorite desert is encouraged. For more information, contact Frank S. Hanson, 360-3744556, Education and Outreach, ONRC.
The Clallam Bay Library presents the zany, energetic and interactive duo The Harmonica Pocket as they “Hula Hoop It Up!” at 3 p.m. Wednesday, March 18. This fun, interactive event will be held in the gymnasium of Clallam Bay High School, 16933 Highway 112, in Clallam Bay. This program is recommended for ages 6-12. The Harmonica Pocket’s “Hula Hoop It Up!” program improves coordination, flexibility and concentration while building kinesthetic awareness. It’s an irresistibly fun, hands-on process that will have participants cutting, joining and decorating hoops of PVC tubing, and learning the basics of hooping — including beginner tricks and dances. The Harmonica Pocket’s visit is part of an ongoing partnership between NOLS and Cape Flattery School District’s Creating Opportunities for After School Thinking (COAST) program. Funded by a Department of Education 21st Century Learning grant, COAST’s mission is to create opportunities for after-school thinking. For more information about the program, contact the Clallam Bay School at 360-963-2324.

THANK YOU. You did this and you can do it again. We can do it again. We’ve got our momentum up and we’re going to keep going. We plan to break ground for Shay and Krystal Gooding in April, and in the meantime, we are going to be refurbishing the Habitat shed – which is a euphemism for the leaky shack on Maloney where we store the tools and supplies. Because so many of you were so generous with your good food during the Weaver build, we’re going to give you a breather for a month or so. It will be the Core Team’s honor to supply the eats for this particular “build.” Rest up. Before the wild daffodils have faded, we’ll be sharing the excitement of another Habitat build and we will need your help. We’ll keep you posted.
Oh, the joy!
Remember that line from your Pacific Northwest history class? It’s what William Clark said when he saw the estuary of the Columbia River and knew their journey was at an end – the hard work was over. Now look at Chris Weaver’s face. Oh, the joy! All that hard work has paid off, all the time he put in working with his dad on their house, has come to fruition and they’re moving in. The speeches are over, the crowd has dispersed,

True Color Part 19
On the Subject of Water By Chiggers Stokes Special to Forks Forum
I grew up in Langley, Va. I played in Turkey Run that skirted my childhood home. My parents discouraged it because suspect drain fields existed upstream. We were the furthest downstream before the creek ran into federal land that became National Park and the Central Intelligence Agency. As a child, I could follow that wild creek on trail for more than a mile to the Potomac River. On hot, buggy summer days, I would ignore my parents admonitions about water quality and swim. In the early 1960s a commuter highway would tear up the palisades above this beautiful and undeveloped section of our national river. The highway was built for the National Park Service.
The George Washington Memorial Parkway would choose Turkey Run for its headquarters and, in July of 1970, they would choose me as a park guide. At Great Falls, I gave programs to school children about our national river and the many sources of point pollution along its course from Fairfax Stone to the Chesapeake Bay. The Clean Water Act was passed in 1972. We that waded streams waited to see if improvement to water quality could emerge from government tampering. By the time I arrived in Olympic National Park in 1977, conditions in our national river water had significantly improved. But few to no places on earth can boast the water quality of the Olympic Peninsula. Our water here, in its many resplendent manifestations, is SO precious! I was taught as a child to revere water and
wilderness. It was the clean, abundant water and wild, that made me put down roots here. I loved my job and I loved the park. But I didn’t always feel what we in uniform were telling the public, about drinking water in the backcountry, was accurate. The message the park adopted around 1980 required treating drinking water any place in wilderness. Many visitors expressed incredulity, back then, because they were accustomed to drinking surface water all over the peninsula. From the other side of the information desk, we explained The New Order: The days of drinking untreated water in the backcountry were over. It ended with backcountry visitors being uncareful about their toilet and, now, wild water was tainted with the ubiquitous epidemic of Giardia. To those twittering with energy to get on with their hikes, we stressed Giardiasis is a serious illness and can be acquired by brushing one’s teeth with untreated water. Once I responded to a Search and Rescue and found the subject walking out on her own carrying just a pot. Over the course of being lost a couple of days, she had abandoned all her other gear. I asked her what was she thinking? She said that she
understood that all water had to be treated and she knew she would require water to walk out 10 miles on her own. She could boil water in the pot if she hadn’t abandoned the matches along with her sleeping bag. I didn’t like the way our water safety pitch had played out. I went to the Natural Science Studies office at park headquarters, which heavily monitors the park’s water quality. I asked for information about Giardia. (This was more than 30 years ago, so believe me at your own risk … but I’m not making it up.) I learned that Washington State had launched its own inquiry into Giardia. In the early 1970s public health officials had gone to towns where there had been public outbreaks of Giardia from municipal water catastrophes. They collected diapers from sanitary landfills and collected skinned carcasses from trappers statewide. Their conclusion was that only 30 percent of the human population in Washington State, significantly exposed to Giardia, present(ed) with the symptoms. There is the global picture of Americans getting sick in Mexico and Russia. Giardia runs rampant there, while the local population shows no sign. In spite of what I told the
public while in uniform, I have never treated the water myself anywhere in Olympic’s wilderness. Nor did most of the park’s trail crew. My daughter drank the beaver and otter chucked water of Hemp Hill Creek straight up for 18 years. My family (or exfamily) were asymptomatic. Giardia may be a longtime resident of the human intestinal flora and we are getting less successful as hosts or MORE successful if we are not careful about backcountry sanitation. It’s easy to look at the federal government as ponderous and bumbling. When we get sick or injured on federal land, it’s easier to blame the government than taking personal responsibility. But our national river is a lot cleaner than it was when I was a kid. The waters in and coming out of Olympic National Park are still among the cleanest on the globe. There are a few things the government gets right … even here in live-freeor-die Forks. Read this entire special to Forks Forum at www.chiggersstokes.com/Chiggers__ Writing.html.

For Your Health Forks Community Hospital March is Nutrition Month By Christi Baron We have all heard the saying “You are what you eat” … think about that … well maybe not. For most of us we don’t always eat what is good for us but if a person is healthy, we can get by making a few mistakes here and there. Our bodies will recover most of the time. But what if one day a health condition changed everything you thought you knew about what food to put in your body? Conditions such as diabetes, a heart attack or a problem with weight gain can change what foods we should be eating. How does a person deal with these changes in diet? Thankfully, Forks Community Hospital has the answer in Amanda Cash, RDN (Registered Dietitian Nutritionist). Cash visits FCH twice a month and she has the knowledge to help with outpatient counseling and nutritional therapy. She can set up a meal plan and with food models can

demonstrate appropriate portion sizes. In addition to assisting outpatients, Cash also manages nutritional assessments for patients in Long Term Care and acute care patients in the hospital. Cash said, “For the patients in long term care it is about quality of life.” Adding, “For acute care patients, they need good nutrition and to get healthy, so it’s about giving them what they are going to eat so they can get well again.” Cash also assist patients that need meals catered to physical conditions like swallowing problems and other issues like requiring a low sodium diet. “Moderation and balance is always a good rule,” Cash said. Cash has her own business and contracts with FCH. She also works with clients at LaPush, Neah Bay and with the Head Start program.

Seniors over 60 years old can sign up and get three meals a week at the café. “They can make a donation for their meal but they don’t have to,” Wentworth said. “We serve about 190 meals a week for the Senior Meal Program.” We all could probably stand to eat a little healthier and Cash says a good tip for all of us when it comes to what we consume is “Eat wise and exercise.”
