District election draws seven

Can ‘PR’ campaign turn the tide? By Scott Rasmussen Journal Editor

Journal staff report

Contested races for public office are few and far between in 2015. One notable exception, however, is the San Juan Island hospital district commission. Three incumbents opted not to seek reelection, including longtime hospital district commissioner Lenore Bayuk, leaving the field wide open and the prospect of overseeing the district, as well as San Juan EMS, drawing seven candidates divided into three separate elections. An all-volunteer board of directors, the hospital commission sets policies for the hospital district and for EMS, and it maintains financial and operational oversight over each of the public entities and the revenue-generating property tax levies of both. The EMS property tax levy is slated to expire at the end of the year unless renewed by voters. Meanwhile, the upcoming election signals little change for the Town of Friday Harbor’s elected officials. Town Council incumbents Steve Hushabeck, Noel Monin and Barbara Starr are running unopposed, as is newly appointed Treasurer Kelli Wilson. Friday Harbor Port Commissioner Greg Hertel is also running unopposed. At the San Juan Island Fire Department commission, former Friday Harbor fire chief Bob Low will compete against See SEVEN, Page 4

Allegations fall flat over tossed tires

By Scott Rasmussen Journal editor

A San Juan Island man accused of dumping 66 automobile tires over an embankment and onto the shoreline of a publicly owned nature preserve is off the hook. In a decision handed down March 11, San Juan County Hearings Examiner Phil Olbrechts ruled the county lacked sufficient evidence to tie 34-year-old Richard Morgan Foley to the pile of tires discarded on the water-

The Southern Resident killers whales share something in common with Cook Inlet’s Beluga whales and the monk seals of Hawaii. And, it’s not necessarily a good thing. In fact, those marine mammals are among eight species that the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration considers most at risk of extinction in the near future. So, in its 52nd year of managing the federal Endangered Species Act, NOAA chose those eight to be the face of a new public education initiative entitled “Species in the Spotlight: Survive to Thrive.” The endangered eight represent imperiled marine creatures in all corners of the county, from East Coast to West Coast, and Alaska to the Hawaiian Islands in the Pacific. “We will be reaching out to the public through various means to raise awareness across the country about these species and identifying way the public can be more engaged, by learning about these species and their threats and by identifying specific action the public can take to help each of these species,” said NOAA’s Donna Wieting, director

Bakery beefs up Brickworks ties Changes are in store for Bakery San Juan with the start of the summer season. Memorial Day will mark the bakery team’s return to Brickworks Plaza and Saturday’s San Juan Island Farmers Market, and the bakery will also be among the various vendors setting up shop at the new, Wednesday Farmers Market at Brickworks, which is slated to open May 27. The bakery opted to forgo resuming its dock-side operation beside the Friday Harbor ferry landing of a year ago. Later in the summer, however, Bakery San Juan, now in its seventh year of operation under owners Mark Sheppard and Lizette Mora, will also be offering its freshly made, artisan slices of whole pies at the weekly Friday Harbor Art Market, which begins June 19 and is open every Friday thereafter until Labor Day, 3-7 p.m. The Art Market features live music, an

Tide: Continued from page 1 of the federal agency’s office of protected resources. “Efforts are underway now in each region to develop the action plans for each species which will specifically identify actions that the public, private and government sectors can take in this national conservation challenge.” Joining the three mentioned above are: Atlantic Salmon (Gulf of Maine), Central California Coast Coho, Pacific Leatherback Sea Turtle, Sacramento River Winter-run Chinook and White Abalone. A small percentage of ESAlisted species have been “de-listed” because they’ve recovered, but less than 1 percent of federally protected species have been de-listed due to extinction. Many more quite possibly would have had in not been for the ESA, according to NOAA. The Southern residents killer whales were listed endangered under the ESA in 2005. At that time, the population, made up of three closely related pods, J, K and L, consisted of 88 animals. Today, after a two-plus year drought of newborns followed more recently by three births, the population now numbers 80. NOAA is considering extending the designated critical habitat of the killer whales to encompass the outer coastline, from the mouth of the Strait of Juan de Fuca to just north of the Bay Area, in California. Such a designation would demand more thorough review of development, projects or activities proposed in those areas and their potential effects on the orcas. The critical habitat today encompasses the entirety of Puget Sound, the Salish Sea and the Strait for Juan de Fuca. Marine biologists, orca advocates and NOAA have long maintain that the three greatest threats to the Southern residents’ survival are lack of prey, pollution and disturbance from vessel traffic. Unlike many killer whales in the wild, such as transients, which feed on marine mammals, the Southern residents feed almost exclusively on Chinook salmon, which make up about 80 percent of their diet. Lynne Barre of the Seattle branch of NOAA’s protected resources division said the abundance of the killer whale’s preferred food source, or lack of it, is complicated by the fact that they prey on another species, salmon, that is also listed under the ESA because of dwindling number “One of the challenges is that the orcas primary food Reach

Another round of ferry fares hikes will be on the table when the state transportation commission meets this week in a twoday session, in Olympia. The Washington State Transportation Commission will consider

whether to back a 2.5 percent increase in fares in 2015 and in 2016 in the first day of its two-day session, May 19-20. The two-year staggered price hike is built into the proposed two-year transportation budgets of both houses of the state legislature. The commission will also consider encouraging more ferry bicycle traffic.

ELECTION FROM PAGE ONE

4 — Wednesday, May 20, 2015

Tires: Continued from page 1 Enforcement Officer Christopher Laws said of outcome of the case. “If you read the decision you get the sense the hearing examiner felt that all indications are Mr. Foley was responsible. But lacking a fingerprint on any of the tires or a witness we had to go with what we had.” Meanwhile, Land Bank Director Lincoln Bormann said the waterfront preserve, a coveted picnic spot and favored by kayakers, weathered the incident without a great deal of damage. “The main thing was having them there and having to remove all those tires,” he said. “We did worry about them getting into the marine environment or getting wedged into the mud of the tidal area.” Photographs of tires and their make and model, and laws of probability, were at the center of the county’s case. Photographs were taken of tires as part of an earlier investigation into a un-permitted salvage and wrecking that Foley reportedly operated at one time at his Roche Harbor Road home, a property, which according to county records, is owned by his mother, a Montana resident. At that time, he already had been ordered to dispose of an assortment of

tires amassed on the property. In the case involving the dumping of tires at Deadman Bay, the county argued the make and model of the tires photographed as part of an earlier investigation at Roche Harbor Road were consistent with those of seven recovered at Dead Man Bay. It then argued that, based on an analysis prepared by a Bellingham-based statistics professor, the chance that the same seven models of tires would appear in both places by coincidence is 51,000 to one. Olbrechts acknowledged that while the probability aspect of the county case proved compelling, it did not show by itself that the mass of tires at Deadman Bay were dumped by Foley. Olbrechts noted the county’s case may have suffered because the professor who produced the probability report did not attend the hearing, in late February, and that its bearing on the evidence had either been misapplied by county staff or would have benefited by further explanation. In a separate notice of violation, although related, Foley was also ordered a year ago to cease and desist the salvage operation at Roche Harbor Road, and to remove a multitude of assorted broken down vehicles, scrap metal, appliances and cast-off mechanical parts scattered around the property. That case remains unresolved.

Eldon Dale Neal: 1933—2015

Eldon Dale Neal, 82, passed away quietly at his home on Orcas Island, Wash., on Friday, May 8, 2015 with family present. He was born Feb. 25, 1933 in Abilene, Kan., the son of Daniel L. Neal and Nellie Louise Neaderhiser. At an early age Eldon and his family moved to Alhambra, Calif., and then to Bend, Ore., where he attended and graduated from Bend High School at the age of 18. While still in high school, at age 17, Eldon was accepted to join the Army Reserve and went to Fort Lewis, Tacoma, Wash., for training. After graduating from high school he signed up for the regular Army and served in Korea as an architect with secret service credentials in design of airfields in Korea for daily reconnaissance information for service commanders. Ranking as a staff sergeant, Eldon stood up in the Signal Corps and was the designer of his Signal Corps unit’s shoulder patch insignia that is still used to this day. He also spent time in several places in Japan, including Hiroshima and Tokyo. Serving from 1950 to 1955, Eldon was “forever proud” to be a Korean War veteran. After serving in Korea, he was stationed at Camp Claybanks on the shores of Lake Michigan. While in the service, Eldon had saved enough money for a 1954 Chevy Bel Air. He had his father order it and when he arrived back he drove to Kalamazoo, Mich., to pick up his new car. On weekend leave he was a hired-hand on the Gowell Family Farm in Rothbury, Mich., assisting with bailing and

packing hay into the barns. There Eldon met and married Valda Pearl Gowell, and they moved out to Bend, Ore., to be with his family. They had two sons, Murray and Michael. In 1966, Eldon moved to Orcas Island, Wash., to work with his father and brother in the construction business. He owned Edelweiss Eldon Neal Construction, a construction and building repair business on Orcas Island until his retirement. Eldon had a passion his whole life for serving the Catholic Church, from his childhood days as an altar boy in Mission San Gabriel Arcángel, Los Angeles, Calif., to assisting up to the time of his death with church duties in the St. Francis Parish, where he was a very active member. Eldon was instrumental in building the new St. Francis Church in Eastsound, Wash. His hobbies included gardening, wood working and building miniature scale models of boats and waterfront houses. He especially enjoyed his annual cruise on Holland America Lines with his mother and his morning coffee with friends at the Island Market in Eastsound. Eldon was preceded in death by his father Daniel L. Neal and mother Nellie L. Neaderhiser. Survivors include his

OPINION Letters to the Editor

Six questions for seven candidates

Now, I’m not the brightest bulb in the box, but even I see this upcoming hospital district election becoming contentious. I’m gonna make two predictions: First, petty partisan politics is about to raise its ugly head. Second, a plethora of letters will sprout in this paper basically saying, “I support this candidate and you should too.” I’m going to suggest we focus on the issues and ask each candidate to answer the following questions: • Are you okay with Catholic Bishops making health care decisions for islanders? • Will my end-of-life care and/or reproductive health wishes be honored at Peace Health in accordance with established law? • What’s your view on

providing maturity services here on the island? • Who should have oversight over services subsidized with public funds? • Do you support full disclosure of tax money disbursed to Peace Health? • What’s your plan to provide quality reasonably priced medical care for all islanders? MIKE BUETTELL San Juan Island

United Way helps students succeed

Friday Harbor Elementary School and the After School Study Club would like to extend a sincere “Thank you” to the United Way of San Juan County. With their support, 20 children in 1st-5th grades have been meeting three days a week with two staff members and one high school student. The students enjoy a snack, stretch their legs on the playground, and then gather to complete homework.

Frustration prevails, but no ‘walkout’ planned by SJI public school teachers We’re sure most of you are aware of the pattern of oneday strikes happening in school districts all throughout Washington. This “rolling walkout” is part of an organized protest by teachers’ unions in response to our state legislature’s failure to: (a) fully fund education, (b) to obey our supreme court’s decisions and directives regarding education funding, and (c) to do its job and pass a budget. We’re also sure that many of you are wondering if this type of action will take place on San Juan Island. As officers of the San Juan Teachers’ Association, (SJEA, our local teachers’ union) we can assure you there are no planned walkouts on San Juan Island. However, our decision as a union to not participate in the rolling-walkout does not mean we aren’t just as frustrated as our colleagues in other districts are with our state legislature.

Washington state ranks at the bottom in funding, class size, teacher pay We are frustrated that Washington continues to rank close to the bottom in our country in the most revealing measures used to rank schools: we rank 40th in per-pupil funding, 47th in class size, and 42nd in teacher compensation. Our state supreme court ruled in 2012 that our legislature was violating its “paramount duty” to fully fund K-12 education. Last September, our supreme court ruled that our state legislature was “in contempt of court” for failing to take adequate measures towards fully funding our schools, and most recently our legislature has all but ignored initiative 1351 (the class size initiative) that was passed by Graphic Designers Scott Herning sherning@sanjuanjournal.com Kathryn Sherman ksherman@sanjuanjournal.com

Washington state voters last November. SJEA teachers are not striking for the simple reason that a local strike would only hurt the very people who have supported us the most… you, the local community members. Your support last summer and fall was invaluable during our period of contract negotiations. Without your recent support in passing the Island Rec levy, we would now be faced with having zero funding for our school sports programs. Organizations such as the Public Schools Foundation, IMA, Valmark, and so many other generous supporters too numerous to list in this short letter, provide critical funding each and every year. And it is your ongoing support of our own local school tax levies that provides a whopping 20 percent of our school district budget. Quite frankly, we could not safely nor effectively open

t’s not everyday that one has a chance to help better the life of another. If that sounds like your kind of opportunity, well, here it is. The Animal Protection Society of Friday Harbor is embarking on a new volunteer program and is seeking people 18 years or older to become part of the team. The program allows volunteers to select from a variety of tasks they’re best-suited for; dog walking and socialization, cat companion, kennel and cat room clean-up, laundry, office assistant, ground maintenance, to name a few. The program also includes “pet ambassador” positions, in which volunteers select an animal to mentor on a weekly basis until that pet is adopted. “Many of the pets here at the shelter, especially some of the older cats, have been here for a long time and having a special someone in their lives will make a huge difference for them,” APS Outreach Coordinator Jan Murphy says. Anyone interested in becoming a volunteer at the animal shelter is invited to attend a volunteer orientation this Wednesday, May 20, beginning at 5:30 p.m. Shelter employees will be on hand to answer questions and refreshments will be served. For more information, give APS a call at 378-2158.

remember being told by an older, wiser gentleman that he could be dropped naked out of an airplane in the middle of nowhere and be able to survive and eventually thrive. He said: “The first night I’d find or make shelter. The next day I would get food and make something to wear. Eventually I would find my way to civilization and get a job. There would be something I could do that would have value to someone, even if it’s sweeping the floor. From there I would climb the ladder of success and eventually arrive where I am now.” He owned his own company, an employment agency. I have found myself saying something similar from an energy standpoint. I could be dropped into any home in America and within a few months cut the energy bills in half. Given a little more time, I could take them all the way to zero. How could anyone, even “Mr. Sun” make such a statement? Believe it or not, it is true. It is a fact that most Americans waste more energy than we use. I wouldn’t waste any. That’s 50 percent savings right off the bat. I would chase down air leaks around doors, windows, electrical boxes, sill plates, caulk or spray foam around plumbing and electrical penetrations under the floor, in the attic, in walls. Chasing down air leaks is time consuming but costs very little. So, I could do that even if I had little or no money. Next I would insulate effectively, mostly in the attic through which most heat John Patterson losses occur. That would cost a little money, hundreds not thousands. I would make sure every light in the house was LED and I would install tubular skylights wherever I could. With appliances, my first addition would be a solar water

heater even if it were crude and home made. I would use a solar cooker when possible, a pressure cooker (uses 1/4th the energy of boiling in a pot), I would have a super energy efficient refrigerator and if I couldn’t afford one I’d put the one I had outdoors or through the wall so it lives in a cooler environment and uses half the energy), and I would permanently unplug the clothes dryer. All clothes would be hung outdoors in the summer, and hung indoors on racks in the winter. A typical home in the Northwest United States uses 30 kWh/day. With the aforementioned measures and with an investment of as little as $2,000, I could bring the usage down 80 percent, to 6 kWh/day. I have done this myself and helped other homeowners achieve the same result many times. I’ve seen usage brought down to as low as 3 kWh/day before the first photovoltaic module is purchased. From 3-6 kWh/day, the home stretch is simple: a photovoltaic system that generates an average of 3-6 kWh/day can easily be bought for $5,000-$9,000. Federal, state, and local incentives pay half, so it’s not so expensive if you’ve done all the conservation possible and installed solar hot water. The PV system is the proverbial “cherry on top”. It’s the last piece, the final trump card. There are always extenuating circumstances. For instance, what if I were “dropped” into a home that was encompassed See KILOWATTS, Page 8

Obituaries

Buyral Earl Madan: 1925-2015 Buyral Earl Madan was born in Bozeman, Mont., on June 28, 1925 to Carl and Naoma (Tudor) Madan and passed away on May 10, 2015 in Eastsound, Orcas Island, Wash. Buyral was 14 when his family moved to Orcas Island. He graduated from Orcas High School in 1943 and joined the United States Merchant Marines. While in the Merchant Marines, he was diagnosed with a severe hearing loss which eventually led to complete deafness. He never learned sign language but amazed everyone with his ability to read lips. Upon his return to Orcas Island in 1945, he married the love of his life, Ellen Marie Bruns. They would have celebrated their 70th anniversary July 14, 2015. Buyral worked as a logger and then as an electrician as a young man, working at Sunnyshore Electric for close family friend Carl Weber. He donated many hours installing the first runway lights at the Eastsound airport, lighting at the original medical clinic in Eastsound, the Community Church and the Sea View Theatre.

In the mid-1950s he joined Orcas Power & Light Company, beginning with installing the numbers on poles for 10¢ per number, and eventually becoming superintendent of the Orcas district upon his father-in-law’s (Eber Bruns) retirement. Buyral retired from OPALCO in 1990. After a back injury was improved by walking, he not only walked, he took up jogging and completed a 26-mile marathon at age 60. He participated in numerous Masters Track & Field events and earned many medals along the way. He was perhaps most proud of earning a medal in the 300 meter hurdles and the triple jump at the National Meet in Chicago in 1991. Over the years, he ran less and walked more, and waved to everyone during his early morning walks on his 3-mile loop. One of his greatest joys was watching his grandchildren and great-grandchildren enjoying his well-tended yard and orchard. Many islanders will remember his tremendous Christmas lighting display, which he began in 1950 at their home on Prune Alley

in the location where the Long House now stands and continued when they moved to their home on Terrill Beach Road. Buyral was an Contributed photo extremely devoted Buyral Earl Madan husband, father, son, brother, uncle and friend, and will be greatly missed by all who knew him. He was kind, strong but gentle, reliable and committed to his family and many friends. He will be greatly missed. Buyral was preceded in death by his parents and four siblings, Melvin (Debby); Helen Mahoney (Paul); Rolley (Phyllis); and Shirley Eagen (Gene). He is survived by his wife of nearly 70 years, their children Richard (Judi); Sandra Clark; and Barry (Bev), all of Orcas Island, 10 grandchildren, 21 great-grandchildren, two greatgreat grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews. A memorial service is planned for May 31 in their backyard from 1-4 p.m. — Family of Buyral Madan

in trees? Well, I wouldn’t chop down the trees. I would put solar panels elsewhere, or buy into a project on a school or other private or public building that has plenty of sunshine. What if I had no money? Ah, that’s the fun one. In that case I’d do like my mentor, who said he could be dropped out of an airplane naked and eventually have everything he needed.

Mountain ‘meet-and-greet’ Music, treats, tours and more at Mt. Grant campaign kick-off

Live music, refreshments, guided tours and more are in the works as the San Juan Preservation Trust and San Juan County present the kick-off of the “Campaign to Save Mount Grant,” Saturday, May 30, on the grounds of the 141-acre Contributed photo / Jane Fox would-be nature preserve, A hiker takes in the sweeping views of San Juan Island and beyond noon to 4 p.m. from the crest of the would-be Mount Grant nature preserve. The Land Bank and Preservation Trust hope to raise $4.2 million to finalize pending purchase of what would be San Juan Island’s newest nature preserve. Plans for the preserve include hiking trails weaving through densely wooded forests en route to the summit, where 360-degree views span the horizon eastward to Mount Baker, north to the Canadian Gulf Islands and across the archipelago of islands as well. To date, roughly $2 million has been raised. Also known as Lawson’s Ridge, the 141-acre property, intended at one time as a residential subdivision, features a paved road that leads to the summit (the road will be closed during the campaign kick-off) which allows people of all ages and physical ability to venture to the top of the mountain. San Juan Island’s own Marimba Kubatana will perform at the event, which will also feature hot dogs, lemonade and other treats, and members of the campaign steering committee, the Trust and the Land Bank will be on hand to answer questions about the property and campaign. The entrance to the preserve is on Beaverton Valley Road, near Cady Mountain Road; however, parking is limited and carpooling is encouraged. Event-goers can also take a free shuttle van to and from the event, which departs from in front of the county courthouse, at the corner of Court and First streets, every 30 minutes from noon until 3 p.m. For more about the kick-off event or Mount Grant, visit www.sjpt.org or call the Preservation Trust, 360 378-2461.

er photographs appear in permanent collections at the National Gallery of Art and at the National Academy of Sciences. Her images have spawned book projects that in turn have led to exhibitions across the globe and an assortment of film productions, including the 1998 Emmy award-winning National Geographic film “America’s Endangered Species: Don’t Say Goodbye,” on which she served as associate producer. She’s the recipient of a 2009 Guggenheim Fellowship award and her works have graced covers of National Geographic, Smithsonian, Life Magazine and more. And, she’s got the best darn close-up one could ever hope to see of the giant squid that makes its home in the Salish Sea. Beginning Saturday, May 23, San Juan Islands Art Museum will showcase the work of wildlife photographer extraordinaire Susan Middleton in an exhibit entitled, “Spineless: Portraits of Marine Invertebrates, the Backbone of Life.” The exhibit, which runs through Aug. 21, features many of the mesmerizing, provocative, almost other-worldly images contained in Middleton’s latest book by the same name. Here’s what Dana Jennings has to say about “Spineless” in a book review for the New York Times: “…the book writhes, oozes and creeps with the salty invertebrates Ms. Middleton got acquainted with. Her intense, often color-saturated photographs pulse with spellbinding strangeness: squids, jellies and nudibranchs; whelks, bloodworms and drupes; conches, urchins and chitons.” Eeegads! Although she makes her home in the Bay Area, Middleton is no stranger to San Juan Island. In fact, it’s one of three locations where the celebrated shutterbug spent seven years in the field and below the surface of the seas in order to capture and bring to life the images contained within the 256 pages of “Spineless” (the French Frigate Shoals of Hawaii and Line Island of the Central Pacific are the other two). As a special treat, Middleton will be at IMA for a “meet-and-greet” and to talk about the exhibit June 19, at 6 p.m.
