Tsunami risk? By Constance See Special to the Journal
Is the Pacific Northwest at risk of a megaquake, magnitude 9.0 or greater or a devastating tsunami like Japan experienced in 2011? More than 15,000 died, 2,000 are still unaccounted for and thousands more were injured in that event. Last month author Kathryn Schulz penned a New Yorker article about “The Big One.” Based on recently discovered tree ring research in the Pacific Northwest, and a collection of oral histories, her material focused on the danger of the eerily quiet Cascadia subduction zone, running offshore from Mendocino, Calif., north to Vancouver Island. It last erupted 315 years ago, resulting in a new western U.S. coastline. Schulz went so far as to suggest that when the Cascadia zone does awaken, it will result in huge tsunami waves, and everyone along the Interstate 5 corridor will be “toast.” Paul Bodin and Bill Steele are seismologists at the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network based at the University of Washington Seismology Lab. Utilizing more than 300 seismic monitors, PNSN keeps a careful eye on their territory, the states of Washington and Oregon, while sharing information with scientists around the globe. On July 31, Steele was interviewed on NBC Seattle’s “New Day Northwest” program stating a major earthquake and tsunami are coming to the Pacific Northwest. His forecast window ranged from tomorrow to 50 years from now. Steele said within that time period, Washington state has a 15 percent chance of a magnitude 8 or 9. Southern Oregon’s risk he graded higher at 25 percent. On that same show, Steele suggested everyone prepare with storage food, medicine and water for at least two weeks, and at-risk communities should investigate building vertical evacuation towers. When interviewed by the Islands’ Sounder, Steele’s associate Bodin was less dramatic. He found the New Yorker article to be “overblown” because “most of our populated areas are outside of the rupture zone.” “Cascadia is like a stuck win-
dow,” he said. “You wonder whether it’s painted shut. I keep a close eye on it. Any earthquake out there would really get our attention. We would be doing better if we had more offshore monitoring equipment.” Last December, Congress approved a $5 million increase in spending to upgrade the Shake Alert System, a prototype alert program using a series of 300 seismic monitors plus the software and hardware needed to process their data. When finished, it’s expected to cost about $30 million and require an additional $16 annually to maintain. “When this upgrade is complete, we should have information in seconds, not minutes,” Bodin said. The majority of seismic monitors he watches are on land, but a few are stationed off the coast of Oregon at the Hydrate Ridge, 60 miles away, and at the Axial Seamount Volcano, 300 miles west of Cannon Beach. Last fall, geologists Bill Chadwick and Scott Nooner announced a pending Axial eruption. When it spewed lava in April, their predictions were confirmed. A boatload of scientists will join See RISK, Page 4

Court upholds CAO Arts commission opening Submitted by San Juan County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office
On Monday Aug. 10, three judges at the Court of Appeals upheld the county’s four critical areas ordinance that was started in 2006 and adopted in 2012. The 30 page court decision doesn’t make for light reading, but the subject is among the most important and controversial activities of local government – land use. Prosecuting Attorney Randall Gaylord praised deputy prosecutor Amy Vira and the staff who vigorously defended the ordinances against challenges made by experienced and seasoned land use lawyers. Gaylord said that the huge number of issues and the record developed over six years made this the most difficult land use case the office has handled. Gaylord said, “my hope for the parties and the community is that they are satisfied by the fact that seven decision makers have now ruled that the county used a reasoned, logical and legal approach to these regulations.” “Critical areas” are wetlands, areas that feed aquifers for potable water, fish and wildlife habitat conservation areas, floodplains and geologically hazardous areas. The challenged ordinances imposed limits on development near critical areas and require buffers based upon a comprehensive study of the effect of development near critical areas. This is the third decision upholding the regulations. The first decision was made by three members of the Growth Management Hearings Board. Gaylord said two organizations with opposing views on the adopted ordinances
ISLAND STAGE LEFT
presented their case to the San Juan County Council and then to the growth board and then to the courts. The Friends of the San Juans raised 52 issues for review and Common Sense Alliance raised 27 issues for review. Orcas Island resident John Evans and San Juan Island resident William Wright also raised issues to the growth board. The board only found in favor of the challengers on a few issues. The next level of appeal was to the Superior Court where Judge Donald Eaton issued a “thorough memorandum” upholding the growth board on each issue raised. Then, the case continued to the Court of Appeals in Seattle where Friends and the Alliance renewed their objections. The Court of Appeals directly addressed topics that were important throughout the adoption process. The court said the ordinances were not a “taking” contrary to the United States Constitution, because
the buffers are like setbacks in zoning regulations where the owner retains all authorized uses, and can exclude others from occupying the property. The court noted that the Alliance did not properly characterize the ordinances as a “one size fits all” set of regulations. Instead the “site specific flexibility was built into the ordinances through exemptions, buffer averaging, and the reasonable use exemption.” Moreover, the ordinances included step-by-step instructions to determine when a buffer is necessary and what its width should be. The Alliance interpreted the law to require that every critical area be mapped before the county could adopt regulations but the court disagreed and concluded “mapping is not required.” All of the arguments made by the Friends were also rejected because they failed to show that the growth board erred legally or by failing to rely on sufficient evidence for its decision.
The Town is accepting applications for open position on Friday Harbor Arts Commission. The Friday Harbor Arts Commission has an immediate opening for one position to complete a term ending Dec. 31. The person filling this unpaid, volunteer position is expected to represent the interests of the Town, community and local artists as they advise the Town Council on the cultivation, selection, acquisition and placement of public art.

took data from the Japan quake combined with G.P.S. information to backengineer the event. Diego was awarded the Annual Frieman prize honoring excellence in research for his paper. “Diego replayed (the Japan quake) as a real-time scenario and was able to use that information to measure the uplift of the seafloor, then to determine how far inland it would hit,” Bock said. “He was quite accurate.

will have an extensive G.P.S. system. You need to figure out location and magnitude as fast as you can, because the clock is ticking.” Accessing and correctly processing data fast is key for accurately forecasting a tsnuami’s reach and destruction potential. The Tokohushu Japan quake was initially estimated to be a 7.2, but ended up as a 9.0, about 30 times more intense. The arriving waves were far higher than many vertical evacuation towers could handle.

As for how the tsunami will affect the islands, the county’s Department of Emergency Management’s online map tool allows islanders to view the tsunami risk following a Cascadia quake. You can see the maps at sjcgis.org/tsunami-inundation/. According to Cowan, director of the DEM, this is the first time that the department has had a data-driven picture of how the tsunami will affect San Juan County. This data has been collected over the span of 10 years. Prior to that, predictions of the tsunami effects were based on speculation or interpretation from work done on either a larger scale or for locations other than the San Juans. Since the tsunami hit Japan in March 2011, Cowan said there has been a lot of confusion in the com-

munity about tsunami risks. “The very idea of them can understandably bring up strong emotions, likely due to the extremely vivid images we’ve seen from Japan and the Indian Ocean,” he said. Some of the most common misunderstandings Cowan hears from the public is that what happened in Japan would be replicated here, and that if you know it’s coming you should get in a boat and ride it out. Apparently jumping in your boat has worked in outer coast areas where deep open water is close at hand, but will not work here because of the complexity of island waters, which create an unpredictable environment and current speeds approaching 15 knots or more. Another myth is that a tsunami would only impact the west side of San Juan or Lopez. According to recent data, Crescent Beach and Lopez would be most impacted by a tsunami with flow depths up to 18 feet. Cowan wants people to understand that the tsunami is not so much a wave
but more like an extremely fast-moving tidal cycle. “We want this to be a tool that educates islanders about the risk and teaches them that in the event of a big quake, people near the water should calmly collect their family and things and head for high ground, say 35 feet or more above the water,” Cowan said. “In the islands, high ground is never too far away.” The vast majority of the islands will not be inundated by tsunami water. According to Cowan, islanders should be aware that the first surge is often not the biggest. Tsunami impacts can continue for 12 hours or more after the first effects.

ACLU letter to State fined over school ruling hospital board by Dennis Box
Special to the Journal
By Anna V. Smith Journal reporter
In a letter to the hospital board of commissioners, American Civil Liberties Union of Washington State stated its stance to San Juan County Public Hospital District No. 1, writing that the district is not in compliance with Washington State’s Reproductive Privacy Act in its contract to PeaceHealth. The letter requested “the district change its policies and practices to fulfill its obligations under the RPA.” “The district cannot contract away its obligation to comply with the RPA,” the letter, sent July 8, read. “We believe that the district’s failure to provide abortion care violates state law. As a public hospital district serving the residents of San Juan Island, the district has a vital responsibility to provide reproductive health care services as required by state law.” Peace Island Medical Center does not provide abortions, stating “elective abortion is not performed in any PeaceHealth-owned,
operated or leased facility.” PeaceHealth is a Catholic health care ministry that is not owned by the Catholic Church. ACLU has issued similar letters to other hospitals on Whidbey Island and in Mason County. They filed a lawsuit against Skagit Regional Health Feb. 19, stating it is in violation of state law for failing to provide abortion services at a publicly funded medical center. The district is in the process of responding to the letter. County residents will vote for hospital commissioner positions this fall, a nonpartisan, non-paid position.
The Washington state Supreme Court let the hammer fall today in the McCleary education case ordering the state to pay $100,000 a day and calling for Gov. Jay Inslee to call the Legislature into special session to resolve the issue. The order stated the “remedial penalty” of $100,000 per day began Aug. 13 and will go until the Legislature adopts a complete plan for complying with article IX, section 1 by the 2018 school year. The Article IX preamble in the Washington Constitution states, “It is the paramount duty of the state to make ample provision for the education of all children residing within its
borders, without distinction or preference on account of race, color, caste or sex.” The court ruling stated the fine is to be placed into a “segregated account for the benefit of basic education.” The Supreme Court found the state in contempt on Sept. 11, 2014, but held
back sanctions until the completion of the 2015 Legislative Session. “After the close of that session and following multiple special sessions, the state still has offered no plan for achieving full constitutional compliance by the deadline the legislature itself
adopted,” the Aug. 13 court order stated. The court ruled because the state has not complied with the 2012 McCleary ruling to fulfill its Constitutional obligation to fund education, “this court must take immediate action to enforce its orders.”

Distress at OPALCO bills
I just wanted to let you know how distressed I am by the constant increase in the facility charge and I would like to know precisely why this is happening. My husband and I are both mostly retired – I sell on eBay part time – and we are sincerely distressed as we watch our bills go up month after month, while we strug-

gle to use, and succeed in using, less electricity. Please check my account and you will see exactly what I am talking about! My understanding is that this facility charge will continue to increase for a number of years and I estimate it will top out for us, with our usage, at around $300 a month. Which is more than I pay for my mortgage. Something is wrong here. And this “revenue recovery add-on”? Do you not have accountants? Are you not able to accurately project your expenses? That charge simply adds insult to injury! The current facilities charge of $38.90 is extortionate. I did some online research and found that most co-op’s facility charge is set and does not increase over time. Most charges that I saw were in the $15 to $30/month range. Why is our already so high and still increasing? Surely the population in the islands is not decreasing! How am I supposed to afford this neverending increase on a fixed income, when your charges are not fixed? JOLIE WHEELING Friday Harbor
Stroke of luck
Having a stroke in March 2014 which left me blind in my left eye, I had my doubts about entering any items in this years fair. My “creative” hands crocheted a large container and a purse using macrame fiber for which I received a blue ribbon and a red ribbon! To get first and second place ribbons at age 89 I think that is really great!! I didn’t stop smiling all the rest of the day! SHIRLEY J. MINER Friday Harbor

lic lands for a 55 square mile island. San Juan Island National Historical Park showcases the historic landscape of the Pig War at English and American Camps. Lime Kiln Point State Park is one of the best places in the world to view orcas from land. San Juan County Park provides camping, picnicking, and kayak launching on the island’s West Side. Cattle Point Natural Resources Conservation Area and San Juan Islands National Monument preserve the coastal scenery and light house at Cattle Point. And these are just some of the county, state, and federal lands preserved for outdoor recreation on San Juan Island. Island residents and visitors have an unparalleled wealth of natural beauty to use and enjoy. Each of these areas is unique and valuable and contributes to the quality of life in the islands. Two other important partners in land preservation in the San Juan Islands are the San Juan County Land Bank and the private, non-profit San Juan Preservation Trust. The Land Bank holds more than 3,000 acres of land in preserves across the county. On San Juan Island preserves from Third Lagoon to Cady Mountain provide rustic trails, shoreline access, or wildlife viewing areas. The most recent addition to the system of public lands on San Juan Island is the Mt. Grant Preserve. The San Juan Preservation Trust is working with the San Juan County Land Bank on a fundraising campaign to permanently protect this spectacular property. Located between Mt. Dallas and Cady Mountain, the preserve protects and provides access to 141 acres of native forest and meadow. If you haven’t been up to see this property, take a drive up on a Sunday when the road is open and take in the sweeping vistas in all directions.

Mt. Grant opportunities
It has been nice weather for the last few weeks and last Sunday the gate in the road to the summit of Mt. Grant was open to vehicles. The air was clear, so the views were great in all directions. Anyone with a camera or a kite would have had a great time. All week the same clear views have been exceptional, but the gate is closed weekdays so a bit of a hike is required to get to the top of the mountain. Not a long hike but it does have some rather steep parts so be sure to take some water with you and allow an hour for a leisurely, mostly shaded, walk. After visiting the mountain when it was subdivided for residential properties, called Lawson Ridge, I was surprised to learn that the original name of the mountain, on old maps, was “Mt. Grant” perhaps dating from the Civil War times, See LETTERS, Page 7

Guest column
Can we prepare FlexFerry great for tourists, not locals for disaster? by Christopher Hodgkin Special to the Journal
The earthquake that will devastate Seattle and will destroy the coast of the Pacific Northwest could strike now or in 50 years ... or maybe 600 years. The New Yorker reported that “when the giant fault-line along the Pacific Northwest ruptures, it could be our worst natural disaster ever.” And it could happen in our backyard. What can one do with this information? In February we reported that the vast majority of the islands will not be inundated by tsunami water, but that our greatest obstacle will be surviving without power for a week. The loss of Seattle and surrounding areas is truly terrifying and it leads to the question: what is to become of us? In the meantime, you can be prepared in any ways we can. Our recommendation is to purchase water purification tablets, which will enable you to drink safely from any water source. Other easy purchases are water to store, a spare flashlight with extra batteries, a role of nylon rope, duct tape, hydrated, instant or canned foods, a small cook stove and sleeping bags. These are items that can also be helpful in long-term power outages. You can visit www.sanjuandem.net and click on “prepare” to find more detailed information on surviving a tsunami. Brendan Cowan, director of the San Juan County’s Department of Emergency Management, offers his help to any person, family, business or organization “who needs some help getting going.” You can contact Cowan by email at dem@sanjuandem.net or by phone at 370-7612.

The FlexFerry reservation proposal (Journal, Aug. 5, page 1) was obviously designed by a non-resident, because it would be wonderful for tourists but a disaster for locals. FlexFerry doesn’t make riders wait for the three times that reservation slots open to request reservations, but lets people at any time put reservation requests in a first come/first served computer queue, which will grab available reservations as they open up for those who got into the queue earliest. The result is that those who can’t plan their travel far ahead may be unable to get on the ferries they need. Let’s see how this would work in practice. The summer schedule started on June 14. The first 30 percent of spaces opened up for reservations about April 14. Under the current system, those (probably mostly tourists or non-residents) who in April know their sum-
mer travel plans can reserve spaces right away, but the rest of the spaces are made available closer to the time when residents are more likely to know their travel needs, giving both tourists and residents the same fair opportunity to get the spaces they want. But if we look at, say, reservations for the Friday before Labor Day, under FlexFerry, tourists who in late April or May had missed the original opening spaces could get into the FlexFerry queue, and at 7 a.m. on Aug. 21 the computer would swoop in with its electronic speed and grab those spaces for those in its queue, leaving residents who hadn’t been able to plan their travel months in advance out in the cold, or forcing them to buy reservations, probably at a hefty mark-up, from those who got into the queue early on. By the time residents get on the computer at a few minutes after 7 a.m., the reservations for both the twoweek and the two-day openings may all have been grabbed by FlexFerry. This is a wonderful system for non-
residents (like the designer of the system) who can make summer plans long in advance. But it would be an absolute disaster for locals who can seldom make their September travel plans in April or May. This system is virtually identical to the “ticket bot” systems which the State has now made illegal for grabbing tickets to popular concert and sporting events. There is almost no difference between the right to reserve a seat at a specific concert or sporting event and the right to reserve a space to board a specific ferry. There may be ways the reservation system can be improved, but for island residents, FlexFerry is most definitely NOT the way. The ferry system should do what it can to prevent FlexFerry from totally destroying the entire concept of the graduated opening of spaces that gives a fair opportunity to locals to board the ferries which are so essential to our lives. Hodgkin is a resident of San Juan Island.
Update on Community Treasures Submitted by Frank Penwell Community Treasures’ president
On Aug. 4, a gathering of about 80 Community Treasures Recycling Supporters met for dinner and entertainment featuring Terry Lush on accordion, heard a presentation about the “CT Evolution”, and listened to Jimmy Moe sing several Bing Crosby tunes. A link will be posted at www.ctrecycling.org. The presentation reviewed the Christian tenets that were the underpinnings of starting CT, and it showed the role that the Lions Club played in starting CT through its ROAR program, aluminum can recycling from 2004-2008. A review of the broad clientele, activities CT is involved in, services provided to the community, and benefits of CT to the public was presented. A plan to be proactive in establishing CT as a permanent community thrift shop and recycling center was announced. The CT board would like CT to evolve into an indepen-

dent, permanent charitable community thrift shop and recycling center. To do this CT must be independent, and debt-free. Currently, operations are dependent upon the generosity of the property owners, as CT does not own the land or equipment it uses. A review of the County Land Use Map and quotes from County Public Records requests and San Juan County Planning Commission regarding Essential Public Facilities, which include recycling centers, noted how the county has been unable to adhere to State WACs and RCWs on EPFs that require the county to plan for and maintain a list of EPF sites. I proposed a win win solution encompassing the environmental, social and economical circles that would result in the equitable, bearable and viable options that lead toward the objective of sustainability. The win win solution was that the current property and equipment owners would donate
approximately $290,000 of the estimated value to the cause, if the community would donate, raise, and help gather money for the rest. In May 2015, the CT board of directors voted to have the property and buildings appraised. On June 4, Don A. Gustafson, of Gustafson & Associates in Bellingham, Wash. did a commercial appraisal of the property and buildings. The financial numbers given were: $760,000 for land and buildings. Equipment needs and values were estimated at $181,000, minus the $290,000 donation from the property owners, equals needed funds of $653,000 plus closing costs. It was noted that 501C3 public charities do not have to pay property taxes, so there would be no increase in overhead costs. There is also a rental house on the property, so a purchase would, in fact, lead to additional revenue. I referred to the quotes, “Many hands make light
work,” and “All hands on deck” and invited those in the room to be the initiators of the “CT Evolution” to help spread the word to raise $653,000-plus closing costs that would make CT a permanent, charitable recycling center. Also, a Commemorative Ideas Contest to honor and remember the CT Evolution donors was announced. Ideas are to be turned in before Dec. 15. There is a $200 cash prize for the winner. To learn more, or to make a donation to the CT Property Acquisition Fund, visit www.ctrecycling.org or visit CT and talk to me. CT is forming an advisory board to help guide the board of directors and CT activities. If you have an interest in CT’s activities or ideas that are in alignment with CT’s mission statements, or if you have interest in being on a small committee helping promote boots on the ground conservation, call 370-5562, or 378-6473.

Paperboys play in Friday Harbor The Paperboys of Vancouver, B.C. do not deliver typical folk music. Their sounds are more like putting rock, folk, pop, world and roots music into a blender to create a smoothly fused one-of-a-kind concoction. Friday Harbor gets the chance to meet these Canadian friends when the band plays at San Juan Community Theatre on Saturday, Aug. 22 at 7:30 p.m. Lead singer Tom Landa (born in Mexico to a Canadian mother of Irish ancestry) formed the band in 1992. Armed with a dozen self-penned
tunes and a lot of drive and ambition, he found a group of musicians who shared common musical interests; they recorded their first CD and set out to tour across Canada in a used van they bought for five hundred bucks. What has happened since is seven albums, countless tours of North America and Europe, TV and movie appearances, movie scores, industry accolades, rave reviews by press and media, and several music awards, including Canada’s version of the Grammy, the Juno Award. The Seattle Weekly described the
band’s music as “like Guinness with a tequila chaser while listening to an Americana jukebox. Or a place where Irish, Mexican and roots music collide.� The Business Partner for the evening is Heritage Bank. Tickets are $25 for adults; $12 for student reserved, with $5 student RUSH at the door. The SJCT box office is open Tuesdays through Fridays from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. or buy online at www. sjctheatre.org

Direct inquiries to Administrative Services at (360) 378-3870. TTD relay at 1-800-833-6388. NOTIFICATION OF INTENT TO OBTAIN CUSTODY. Per RCW 79.100, SAN JUAN COUNTY intends to take custody of the derelict and/or abandoned vessel with no name with registration # WN 7298 JF on August 31, 2015. The vessel is a black hulled concrete, 36ft Cotten located approx. 300 yards north of Shipyard Cove on San Juan Island, San Juan County. After taking custody, San Juan County may use or dispose of it without further notice. To retain custody of the vessel, before the Custody Date, the owner must: 1) Get authorization to moor or anchor the vessel in its cur-
rent location, or 2) Move it to an anchorage area, moorage facility, or storage location that authorizes the vessel, or 3) Remove the vessel from the water. To redeem the vessel once SAN JUAN COUNTY has taken custody, the owner must file a written request (one original and one copy) for a hearing with the Pollution Control Hearings Board, in person at 1111 Israel Rd, Tumwater WA, or by mail to PO Box 40903, Olympia WA 98504-0903, and serve one copy on SAN JUAN COUNTY at 135 RHONE ST. PO BOX 947, FRIDAY HARBOR, WA. 98250. The appeal must include the following information: a
copy of the decision you are appealing; your name and address (mailing and legal, if different) and, if applicable, the name and address of your representative; a daytime phone number; a brief statement why you are appealing; a statement of what you want the Board to do; the signature of you or your representative. [This signature certifies that the content of the appeal is true.] The written request can be submitted immediately but cannot be filed any later than Date 04/05/2015 (Appeal Date). The right to a hearing is deemed waived if a request is submitted late, and the owner is liable for any costs
owed to San Juan COUNTY. These costs may include all administrative costs incurred by San Juan COUNTY, removal and disposal costs, and costs associated with environmental damages directly or indirectly caused by the vessel. In the event of litigation, the prevailing party is entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. SAN JAUN COUNTY reserves the right to pursue any other remedies available under law.

Salmon are important for Southern Resident Survival I
n the previous article of the Whale Pages, we presented the fact that the whales we call killer or orca represent many distinct populations around the world. These distinct populations specialize or “like to eat” particular prey, which is one of the characteristics that makes them different from one another. All of the populations of so-called killer whales are predatory animals currently assigned to one species (Ocinus orca, Linnaeus, 1758), and they must eat to survive. The preferred prey species for each population varies according to what is locally abundant and available. As we mentioned previously, we have three types here in the San Juan Islands. The most common are the Southern Residents that eat almost exclusively salmon, particularly Chinook. Less common, but more abundant, are the transient ecotypes
that may indeed be properly called “killers” (at least by the seals, sea lions, porpoises and whales they consume). Physically, transients are characterized by more triangular and pointed dorsal fins than those of residents, and their saddle patch is generally solid white or grey. They also have a more robust jaw structure with relatively big teeth. Their lifestyle is rather nomadic, and their family bonds less stable. The third type, and most rarely seen, are the “offshores”. As their name suggests, they travel far from shore and feed primarily on schooling fish; however, evidence suggests they may also eat marine mammals and sharks. Other than a handful of sightings within the inland waters of Washington state and British Columbia, they have mostly been encountered off the west coast of Vancouver Island in groups of 20–75, with occasional sightings of larger groups of up to 200. he resident type, fish-eating, killer whales occur throughout the Pacific Northwest. The Alaskan resident population is the largest with an estimated 500+ individuals. The Northern Resident group that frequents the inland waters of Vancouver Island and Johnstone Strait has approximately 250 individuals. The southern resident clan (J, K and L pods) is the smallest group and their population is currently in decline. As of August 2015, there are only 81 individuals. Perhaps the largest factor contributing to their decline has to do with what they like to eat. Within Puget Sound alone, only 22 of at least 37 historic Chinook populations remain. Of those remaining populations, Chinook salmon are at only 10% of their historic numbers, with some populations as low as 1%. One endangered population whose survival depends on another endangered species is a bad combination. All other factors aside, if the whales don’t have enough to eat they won’t be able to cope with the other stressors they are faced with, such as toxins and other anthropogenic Map by National Marine Fisheries Service Following the listing of the Southern Resident killer whales as effects. According to NOAA’s 2008 Southern endangered in 2005, the National Marine Fisheries Service desResident killer whale recovery plan states, ignated much of the inland waters of Washington State, now “Perhaps the single greatest change in food termed the Salish Sea, as critical habitat.

availability for resident killer whales since the late 1800s has been the decline of salmon from the Columbia River basin.” he good news is that right now we are in a unique position to do something about it. According to many scientists, removal of the four Lower Snake River dams in the Columbia River Basin is the single most effective way to recover the salmon that Southern Resident killer whales need to survive. President Obama is currently considering an executive order to breach the dams. You can help convince him that this is the right thing to do for our local whales buy making a call to the white house. Please call 202-456-1111 and leave a message for the President that you support the removal of the four lower Snake River Dams to save the Southern Residents from extinction.
