Oregon Coast News - October 5, 2009
Daily news and sports coverage for the Oregon coast plus a variety of guides and directories useful to Oregon residents and visitors.
Salmon plan
A federal judge in Portland has extended the response time for comments regarding the proposed Obama Administration Salmon Plan for the Pacific Northwest. U.S. District Judge James Redden granted a request from the State of Oregon to push the deadline back to Monday, Oct. 5th. A policy director for Oregon Governor Ted Kulongoski said the original two-and-a-half weeks was just not enough time for biologists to analyze the plan that centers on the Columbia and Snake rivers, hydro-electric dams and endangered species of salmon.
Marine Reserves
The public is invited to comment on draft rules to establish, study, monitor and evaluate pilot marine reserves at Otter Rock north of Newport and Redfish Rocks near Port Orford. Three meetings scheduled in October are part of agency rulemaking to establish the two reserves, as directed by the 2009 Oregon Legislature (House Bill 3013). The meetings are sponsored jointly by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, the Department of State Lands and the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department. The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife manages the fish and wildlife resources of the state. The department’s proposed rules regulate fishing and hunting activities in the marine reserves and marine protected areas, while continuing to allow for certain uses such as scientific research, retrieval of fishing gear that has drifted into the area, and transiting, drifting, or anchoring in the marine reserve or marine protected area. The Department of State Lands manages the land underlying Oregon’s territorial sea (which extends three miles seaward from Oregon's coastline) and authorizes uses such as telecommunications cables and pipelines placed on the seafloor. Under the proposed rules, the department would issue authorizations in marine reserves and marine protected areas only for activities focusing on monitoring, evaluating, enforcing, protecting or otherwise furthering the study of these areas. The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department is responsible for managing public recreation and natural resources from low tide landward, normally up to the vegetation line. The ocean shore recreation area is affected by one of the two proposed marine reserves pilot projects: Otter Rock. With few exceptions for things like research, removing or damaging natural materials — rocks, plants, animals or any other natural object — would not be allowed in the rocky, northern section of Otter Rock between extreme low and mean high tide. The area would remain open to the public and pets. The meetings will be: 1 – 3 p.m. Oct. 20, - State Lands Building, 775 Summer Street N.E., Salem; 7 – 9 p.m. Oct. 21, - Port Orford Public Library, 1421 Oregon Street, Port Orford; 7 – 9 p.m. Oct. 22- The Inn at Otter Crest, 301 Otter Crest Drive, Otter Rock. Those unable to attend one of the meetings may submit written comments to: odfw.marinereserves@state.or.us for comments to ODFW,
marinereserverules@dsl.state.or.us for comments to DSL, park.info@state.or.us for comments to OPRD. The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife will accept comments until Dec. 11, on which date the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission will adopt the ODFW rules. The Department of State Lands will accept comments until Nov. 17; their Board will adopt the DSL rules at the Dec. 8 State Land Board meeting. The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department will accept comments until Nov. 17; their commission will adopt the OPRD rules at the Jan. 28, 2010 Oregon Parks and Recreation Commission meeting.
Anglers invited to comment on proposed changes to 2010 sport halibut season
Sport anglers who target Pacific halibut have an opportunity to comment on proposed changes to the 2010 halibut season by phone or email. “The Pacific Fishery Management Council adopted one proposed change for anglers to provide input,” said Gway Rogers-Kirchner who is the assistant program manager responsible for commercial and sport marine fisheries for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. Under consideration is adjusting the Central Oregon summer fishery from the current three day openers to two days. Anglers are encouraged to comment on whether they prefer three days or two days per opener. Also, if the openers were structured for two days, would they prefer Friday and Saturday or Saturday and Sunday as open days. The progress in this year’s Pacific halibut management can be viewed at: http://www.dfw.state.or.us/MRP/finfish/halibut/management/index.asp. “We will take the comments from the anglers to the Pacific Fishery Management Council at their meeting in November where they will adopt recommendations for changes to the Catch-Sharing Plan,” Kirchner said. To provide comments, please contact Kirchner at (541)-867-4741 or Gway.R.Kirchner@state.or.us.
Quake
A 4.5-magnitude earthquake was recorded 132-mles west of Eureka, CA in the Pacific Ocean on Friday, at 1:17 a.m., according to a report from the U.S. Geological Survey. It did not produce a tsunami wave.
Savage Rapid Dam
By October 9th, the Rogue River will move freely for the first time in nearly a century on a stretch of river near Grants Pass, Oregon, when work crews pull down a temporary coffer dam in place around the north side of Savage Rapids Dam. Fish and boats will then be able to move unimpeded through the site. The event will mark another historic achievement in the ongoing restoration of the Rogue River, the location of the most substantial dam removal efforts yet undertaken in the western U.S. Workmen are slated to finish the last portions of the Savage Rapids Dam removal by December. The $40 million Savage Rapids project represents one of the largest dam removals ever in the United States and is expected to increase Rogue River salmon runs above the dam site by over 22%, valued at $5 million annually, bringing enduring positive impacts to the valuable sport and commercial salmon fisheries of Oregon. WaterWatch and over 170 Rogue Valley residents and guests will celebrate the historic event on October 10th, with an inaugural float-through of the site by boat (provided there is safe passage), tour of the dam, and gala dinner. For more information on how to join in the festivities, please visit www.waterwatch.org. The October 10th celebration comes during a sustained wave of
restoration achievements on the Rogue River. Calendar year 2008 saw the removal of the Gold Hill Diversion Dam on the Rogue’s mainstem, and the notching of Elk Creek Dam, an important spawning tributary of the Rogue. In June 2009, Jackson County received a $5 million stimulus grant from the Obama administration to remove Gold Ray Dam, the
removal of which will achieve 157 miles of free flowing Rogue River. WaterWatch has played a key role in making a free-flowing and protected Rogue a reality.
BLM Releases Herbicide Plan for Public Review
Noxious weeds, invasive plants, and other weeds infest millions of acres in
Oregon. It is estimated that approximately 1.2 million of the 15.7 million acres of BLM lands in Oregon are currently infested with noxious weeds and are spreading at an estimated rate of 12 percent per year. To address this issue, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) today released a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for public review and comment. The BLM will be seeking public comments on the draft EIS for 60-days beginning on October 2, 2009 and closing on December 1, 2009. The draft proposal would allow the BLM to use herbicide to treat any vegetation as needed to control pests and diseases in State-identified quarantine areas, such as treating tanoak to slow the spread of Sudden Oak Death in southwestern Oregon. A copy of the news release announcing the availability of the Draft EIS is attached below. Please let myself or Jeanne Standley, the Coos Bay District noxious weed coordinator (541-751-4283) know if you have any questions.
State Parks fees
Oregon state park camping and day-use fees will increase for the first time in 13 years in 2010. The increased fee became official when the Oregon State Parks and Recreation Commission adopted changes in park user fees in a special meeting Sept. 29. Day-use fees will increase January 1, 2010 from $3 to $5 per carload for a daily permit. On May 1, 2010, RV campsite rates will rise by $4 per night, and tent site rates will climb $3 per night. Campers who visit between now and April 30, 2010 will pay the current, lower rate. The current rate also will be honored for reservation customers who booked sites for May 1 and later before Oct. 1, 2009. However, customers making reservations now for stays starting May 1 and later will be charged the new rate. There are two types of state park campgrounds: value and destination. Value campgrounds are usually smaller, less well-known sites that charge less. The new nightly rate for full hookup (sewer, electricity and water) and electric hookup (electricity and water, only) campsites will be $20 for Value Parks and $24 for Destination Parks starting May 1. Tent sites will rent for $17 or $19. RV and tent campsites rates are discounted by $4 per night from October 1 to April 30 every year to promote fall, winter and spring camping. The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) initially proposed increasing tent camping by $4, but reduced the change to $3 following a lengthy public comment period. The Oregon Legislative Assembly approved the concept of increasing state park user fees during its 2009 session. Overnight cabin and yurt rental fees will also increase by $4 and $9, respectively, making the new rates $39 for a basic cabin and $36 for a basic yurt. All of the new rates, including local lodging taxes, are summarized online at http://www.oregonstateparks.org/rates.php?season=1.

DEQ Penalizes Trident Seafoods $1,800 For Water Quality Permit Violations at Newport Plant
The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality has penalized Trident Seafoods Corporation, which owns and operates a seafood processing plant at 623 SW Bay Boulevard in Newport, $1,800 for violating its wastewater discharge permit. The company, which processes surimi for use in imitation seafood, exceeded its wastewater discharge daily limits for total suspended solids on June 19, 2009, drawing the $1,800 penalty. Discharge from an outfall on the site had a total suspended solid value of 2,332 pounds per day, exceeding the 1,400 pounds-per-day pollution load limit. DEQ also cited Trident Seafoods for violating its monthly permitted limit for biochemical oxygen demand and noted in addition that the company failed to timely submit required reports describing these instances of permit noncompliance, but did not assess a penalty for these violations.
DEQ honors
The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality Clean Diesel Recognition Program will honor the Tillamook, NeahKahNie, Nestucca, Astoria and Knappa School Districts on the North Coast for protecting students’ health by voluntarily reducing soot emissions from diesel school buses.

After three straight losses to open the 2009 prep football season, North Bend (2-3) has now one two in a row. The Bulldogs finally came home to Vic Adams Field and played under the lights with their new video scoreboard and improved PA system. Not that the new fan improvements had anything to do with the level of play, but North Bend handed previously unbeaten Sweet Home (4-1) its first loss with a 41-24 win. Junior fullback Jake Lucero rumbled over the Huskies for 122-yards, while the quick Cameron Seiger added 60-yards. Sweet Home didn’t help itself coughing up the ball six-times. Coach Rick Taylor, “The kids did a great job of giving the home crowd a good effort. Our desire is to get better each week, and I know the players understand the importance of this week's game. Dalton Iveans had a great game with two interceptions on D, a fumble recovery, a TD and over 100 yards rushing. Jake Lucero had 4 touchdowns and 123 yards rushing as well. Our line took another step forward and they are having some great growth spurts over the past two weeks. I am very proud of all the guys and I know they are going to continue to do their best week in and week out. By the way, our JV team is undefeated and has only given up 14 points and our freshmen have only lost one game. We presently have 82 players out for football. Even with a few early losses, I think everyone is having a great time and I believe this is one of the keys to a great season.” North Bend heads into 4A Far West League action Thursday at favored Douglas. You can listen to the game live on “The Wave,” FM 105.5 and streamed on the radio station’s website.

Big Jefferson was just too much for visiting Marshfield last Friday night in Portland and the Democrats (1-4), needing a win, found one in a 31-25 battle with the Pirates (3-2). Marshfield and Jefferson swapped leads, but it was until a little more than two-minutes remained in the game that the Demos came up with the winning score.

Marshfield Coach Doug Landrum on both runs this past week, “The Cottage Grove meet is a hard training/fun day for us each year. The Pirates ran well and did as their coach instructed them to. No standout performances but there was not supposed to be. We went into Woahink a little tired and with a lot of colds on the team. The goal for Woahink was to run fast. 14 of our 18 athletes set a new season best so we were successful in that regard. Andrew Davidson ran 17:04 to lead our boys. Tyler Nixon went under 18 for the first time and is running very well. Eddie Rodriguez made a large improvement as did Connor Devereux. Sergio Marroquin broke 19 for the first time. Tori Scott had her second improvement in 3 days and is rounding into form. Natasha Hill has improved every meet this year. We seem to be on track. We have the next 14 days to sharpen up and recover before the last push to district.”
