Parking ordinance goes into effect in North Bend By DAVID RUPKALVIS The World

The city of North Bend has taken a stand against the influx of RVs parking on city streets. Effective July 29, a new parking ordinance approved by the city council gives the police the authority to remove RVs that refuse to move in a set amount of time. The city council approved the parking ordinance June 28. The ordinance shortens the amount of time RVs and other vehicles can be parked on streets from 10 days to 72 hours. The ordinance also gives the city the authority to tow vehicles that do not comply with the ordinance. Under the new ordinance, all trailer must be licensed and attached to a licensed, operable motor

vehicle to park on city streets. In addition, no abandoned vehicles are permitted on North Bend streets. Under the ordinance, a vehicle is considered abandoned if it: - Does not have a lawfully affixed, unexpired registration plate, fails to display current registration, or fails to have vehicle insurance; - Appears to be inoperative or disabled; - Appears to be wrecked, partially dismantled or junked; or - Appears to be abandoned. But perhaps the biggest change is limiting the time a vehicle can be parked in one place. The new, 72-hour window, requires vehicles to be moved at least one full city block every three days to be considered legal.

The movement requirement is in addition to the licensing and insurance mandates. If a vehicle is found to be illegal or does not move in the required time, it can be towed by the city. A new state law requires the city to store the vehicles for 30 days before they can be disposed. The city must cover the expense of towing, storing and cleaning the vehicles. While the 72-hour limit is the maximum a city can apply in Oregon, if a vehicle is considered a danger, it can be towed immediately. "All vehicles parked in such a location as to constitute a hazard or obstruction to motor vehicle traffic may be towed immediately," the city reported in a press release. "A vehicle constitutes a

hazard or obstruction in cases including, but not limited to, those where the vehicle extends within the paved portion of the travel lane; or results in a sight obstruction to motor vehicle traffic; or is the cause of an accumulation of trash, garbage, junk, debris or other personal property constituting a nuisance; or when the vehicle presents a clear danger." Within days of the ordinance taking effect, the number or RVs parked on city streets shrunk noticeably as the North Bend Police Department began informing people occupying RVs and other vehicles of the new law. "We are towing," City Administrator David Milliron said. "The police and myself went out to all the homeless and we shared the one-page flyer. We

started last week educating, educating, educating. Most of the homeless knew it was coming. It was a good interaction with most folks." With most of the RVs leaving North Bend streets, other locations nearby have seen an increase. "We heard from Coos Bay, and they have seen and increase there," Milliron said. "We knew when we implemented our ordinance, it was going to impact others. When Coos Bay implemented theirs, they all came to North Bend." The city of Coos Bay implemented a similar parking ordinance last year along with a camping ordinance that lays out when and where the homeless can camp.

Rogue River serves as law enforcement training grounds By BREEANA LAUGHLIN The World

A long line of law enforcement boats jetted up and down Rogue River last week. The jet boat drivers maneuvered their crafts into small channels and through strong currents, performing emergency stops and securing their boats to

rocks along the river shores. The boat drivers, and their instructors, were taking part in a week long training designed to teach law enforcement, fish and wildlife and fire personnel the skills to safely operate their watercraft in emergency river scenarios. The jet boat operations training was hosted by the Oregon State Marine Board on July 25 to 29.

“This is critical training for marine law enforcement and first responders,” said Ed Persichetti, the training coordinator for the Oregon State Marine Board Boating Safety Program. The marine board contracts officers to uphold the law on waterways and the keep the waters safe, said Persichetti. Those who complete the training become the

qualified boat jet operators tasked with carrying out these duties. Curry County’s wild and scenic Rogue River is a prime spot for the yearly safety training for a number of reasons. “We have the support of the sheriff’s office – which is always a bonus. And the support of the Please see RIVER, Page A2

Coos County made major moves within the Public Works Department on Tuesday as county commissioners chose a new department director and moved parks into a standalone department. Commissioners John Sweet and Bob Main voted to hire Paul Slater as the public works director to replace John Rowe. Commissioner Melissa Cribbins was absent from the meeting. Main and Sweet also voted to start Slater at step 5 in the payroll system to give him a raise. He was previously the assistant road-master, a position he held for the last four years. With the decision to promote Slater, the two commissioners also voted to move the parks department out of public works, reinstating it as a standalone department. Sweet explained that in 2019, commissioners moved the parks under public works, with Rowe overseeing both departments. With Rowe retiring, commissioners decided to make the parks department stand alone, and voted to post a position for parks director. "We figure Paul had his hands Please see CHANGES, Page A12

Candidates face-off in gubernatorial debate in Welches By HERB SWETT For The World

The candidates for governor of Oregon debated state issues Friday in a forum before the Oregon Newspaper Publishers Association in Welches". Debating were Democrat Tina Kotek, former speaker of the Oregon House of Representatives; Republican Christine Drazan, former minority leader of the Oregon House; and independent Betsy Johnson, a former state senator. Four Oregon newspaper executives questioned the three. Here are their paraphrased statements. Opening remarks Drazan: I am originally from Klamath Falls. My family was less stable than they would have liked, too dependent on natural resources. They talked about politicians leaving people behind. Kotek: I began public service at the Oregon Food Bank. I have focused on having a positive impact

Betsy Johnson on people’s lives. Families are worried about making ends meet Johnson: I believe we’re losing the Oregon that we love. I call for common-sense change. My allegiance is to Oregonians, not to any party or vested interest. Responses to panelists’ questions Q: The timber industry is declining. What steps would you take?

Christine Drazan

Tina Kotek

Kotek: When all parts of our state are successful, we’re all successful. I’d work with the communities to make sure we could use timber products. Drazan: My dad worked in a veneer plant that went away. We’re grateful that the tech industry stepped in, but it must become more productive. Support the state as a whole.

Johnson: I visited the Elgin Veneer Plant and worked to save jobs when the Department of Environmental Quality wanted to shut them down. We must manage forests so they don’t burn down. Q: We hear of homelessness as a crisis. What would you do? Kotek: I have a five-point plan on my website for shelter

for homeless. We have increased shelters quickly. Johnson: I reject the notion that Tina is the only one working on homelessness. I made Wapato Jail a place of healing and hope. We’re getting more tent cities. Drazan: As a freshman representative, I focused on youth homelessness. I passed second-home legislation, and more than 70% finished high school because of it. Q: How did Wapato work? Johnson: We have a track record of success. We have to stop fighting over what is best. Kotek: I was glad my bill to streamline efforts worked. We need more housing.

community – which is always a bonus,” said Persichetti. Plus there is plenty of water to maneuver and work around in the Rogue River. “It is such a dynamic waterway. We have 42 miles to stretch our legs – if you will – and train individuals,” he said. Last week’s training included more than 40 participants (including instructors and trainees) from 18 different agencies. Up to 19 different jet patrol boats were running the river at any given time during the training. This year, the law enforcement training was held in conjunction with the Oregon State Marine Board’s quarterly meeting. For the first time ever, members of the marine board had the opportunity to witness the training firsthand. The board members were invited to take part in an exercise with trainees as they learned to shallow jump into the water off the back of the jet boats on Wednesday, July 27. This sort of belly-flop technique allows the person jumping to keep their head above the surface of the water, and hopefully their bodies above rocks and other potential hazards, should they need to enter the water in an emergency situation. Curry County Sheriff John Ward was present at the July 27 training. Sheriff Ward said he is a big supporter of the program, and always tries to participate in at least one day of the training each year. Local training instructors included Curry County Senior Deputy Walter Scherbarth and Deputy Jared Gray; and Coos County Sergeant Will Coleman. As long-time jet boat operators, these instructors are tasked

with teaching their trainees how to navigate the waters efficiently, effectively and safely. “The goal for trainees is to get the expertise from the instructor and build their own skills and techniques,” said jet boat operations training instructor Nate Thompson, a sergeant with the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office. Thompson said he took the training 15 years ago, went home and perfected his jet boat skills, and came back as an instructor a few years later. “As an instructor, it’s about figuring out what the trainees’ baseline skill set is and then building off of that. Sometimes people come into it already knowing how to read the water well. Other times we need to teach them that along with driving the boats,” Thompson said. “Throughout the course of the training, they learn how to navigate these types of water safely – and there’s a lot that goes into that,” he said. “These boats don’t drive like cars. It’s a lot different. It’s all about throttle control and steering.” Thompson’s trainee, Clackamas firefighter Sandor Pongracz, said he felt like his head was on a swivel during the training. “Every day is a little different. There’s wind. There’s the glare from the sun. There’s wakes from the big tour boats. So your head is on a swivel all the time as you read up the river and down the river – all while there is chatter on the radio,” Pongracz said. “It’s mentally exhausting because you don’t want to have any catastrophes and you are always trying to do your best.” The trainee said his takeaway has been to slow down. “These things have a lot of power and speed behind them but that’s not always what you need to get up and down the

swaths of our state that are not listened to. Public policies have different impacts on different parts of the state.

river correctly,” he said. “Anybody can drive really fast – but if you can do it slowly and accurately to get to a target in the water – that takes skill and that takes practice.” Law enforcement training supervisor Persichetti said instructors purposely put their students into challenging positions. “I have been doing this a long time, and you never pick somebody up that needs to be rescued in any easy spot – there is a reason why they are stuck there. So we are constantly putting students into tight quarters with difﬁcult maneuvers to try to perfect their skills – so that when they do go home and there is a rescue they can facilitate it,” he said. More information about the Oregon State Marine Board can be found on the ofﬁcial website of the state of Oregon at www. oregon.gov.

Senate bill includes $750K for Coquille River The Coquille Indian Tribe expressed gratitude this week to Oregon’s U.S. senators for supporting the tribe’s conservation efforts on its namesake river. The Senate’s appropriation bills for 2023 include $750,000 for Coquille River salmon conservation, according to Sens. Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley. “This is going to help us address watershed management in a holistic manner,” said Tribal Chairman Brenda Meade. After learning last year that the Coquille River’s fall Chi-

nook salmon run was in peril, the tribe launched a cooperative initiative to rescue and restore the prized fish. Initial efforts, aided by a coalition of community partners, grew into a historic agreement for the tribe and the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife to co-manage the Coquille watershed. Salmon restoration remains a priority, but Meade said cooperative efforts for habitat restoration will benefit a wide range of struggling species, including coho salmon and lamprey.

“We’ll continue looking for more resources and working with our community partners,”

she said. “The work has just begun.” The Senate appropriation bills

are not final. They need to be merged with the House’s version of 2023 appropriations.

Gloria was born November 19, 1953 to Geneva “Arlie” and Elton Loree Forbes. Growing up in Coos Bay, Oregon she developed a love of the ocean and of music. In third grade she had the opportunity to hear the Oregon Symphony and from that point on she was set on the path of playing, teaching and sharing her love of music with anyone that she came into contact with. In 1972 Gloria graduated from Marshfield High School and went on to study music education at Southern Oregon University, later obtaining her Master of Education from her beloved University of Oregon. She was a die-hard Oregon Ducks fan often ribbing the other school that shall remain unnamed. Always believing that every child has the capacity to learn and that no one is not musically inclined, she set out on spreading her love of music. Gloria taught band and private lessons throughout Douglas County and the Pacific Northwest for 13+ years, before returning back to school for her Certificate in School Administration. She would continue to enrich the education of students acting as Vice Principal at McGovern Elementary in Winston,

Oregon and Principal at Hawthorne Elementary School in Sweet Home, Oregon until her retirement. When not sharing her love of music and education with her students, Gloria was the proud parent of her only daughter, Laura Lane. She met the love of her life, Rick Mittleman through mutual friends in 1997 and later married on July 15, 2000. They spent the next 21+ years building memories and sharing their home with their beloved pets. In her free time, Gloria enjoyed playing in various bands including the Roseburg German Band, the Bay Area Community Band and the Roseburg Community Band.

DEAR ABBY By Abigail Van Buren EMPLOYEE WANTS TO TURN THE PAGE ON MANDATORY BOOK CLUB those books interferes with your personal time and, since the COVID disruption, you have developed other interests. Then suggest another person be chosen if a quorum is required. DEAR ABBY: The letter signed "Redo in the East" (June 7), from the lady who wanted to rewrite her husband's rushed obit, caught my attention. For 18 years I was part of an American Legion Honor Guard, during which time we did more than 900 funerals. I also read the deceased veterans' obituaries. Because of this experience, I constantly advise people to write their OWN obit. After all, who knows the most about them? This accomplishes two things: First, it greatly reduces the stress on those trying to write one under difficult conditions. Second, it ensures the accuracy of the information in it. I wrote mine 20 years ago. Of course, it needs updating, but upon my demise there will be only a few blanks to fill in and it's ready to go. -- VETERAN IN VIRGINIA DEAR VETERAN: Thank you for the service you have so generously provided all these years, and for the sage advice you

have shared with my readers today. DEAR ABBY: I recently stayed in a historical inn, which had very thin walls. An occupant in the adjoining room sneezed. I heard it and wondered: "Should I say 'bless you'?" The sneeze came in the midst of conversation I had respectfully tried to avoid overhearing, but which was clearly audible. My thought was to ignore the sneeze so as not to intrude on their privacy. An office mate believes I should have responded to the sneeze. Your thoughts would be appreciated. -BEING POLITE IN THE MIDWEST DEAR BEING POLITE: I agree with your office mate. If you had responded to the sneeze, it would have alerted your neighbors that their conversation wasn't necessarily private, which would have done them a favor. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

DEAR ABBY: I have worked for the same company for 20 years. For the last eight years, I was part of an office book club, mostly because I was pressured regularly by the boss to participate. The members were mostly a clique of "mean girls." I never felt a part of it or comfortable, but I pushed through the once-a-month meetings to keep the peace. When COVID sent everyone home to work the past two years, the book club was over, or so I thought, hoped and prayed. As things are loosening up now, though, the pressure is mounting again. I do not want to return to that routine, but the powers that be don't seem to accept any excuse or reason. After 24 months of freedom, forcing me back into it is causing great anxiety. What would you advise me to say or do to be left out of this without antagonizing the boss? -WANNA-BE-DROPOUT DEAR WANNA-BE-DROPOUT: If you really feel your job is in jeopardy if you refuse to participate in the book club, start looking for other employment. Tell your boss you are no longer interested in participating because reading

Guest Opinion

New study shows energy exports big win for U.S. Economy By CHRIS WOODWARD InsideSources.com

Progressive Democrats are demanding a ban on all U.S. oil exports, claiming it will drive down the price of gas at the pump. Nationalist Republicans are attacking the Biden administration for selling oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve on the open market, allowing millions of barrels to be bought by China. But new research shows allowing U.S. oil exports and gas exports lead to more wealth and work for Americans. The study, conducted by consulting and communications firm ICF on behalf of the American Petroleum Institute and American Exploration and Production Council (AXPC), analyzed the six years since the ban on exporting U.S. crude oil was lifted in December 2015. The data showed enabling exports not only reduced global oil prices by an average of $1.93 per barrel but also added $161 billion to gross domestic product and added 50,000 jobs to the economy. “American energy leadership doesn’t just deliver significant benefits to Americans— fueling the U.S. economy and American jobs, delivering reliable energy, and helping put downward pressure on prices, but it also strengthens global security and supports our allies,” said API president and CEO Mike Sommers. “U.S. energy exports provide critical stability to the global market, support our allies across the world who depend on American energy to meet their needs, and strengthen American energy security here at home.” If the United States is not exporting energy, Sommers argued, it leaves the door open for unstable nations or those with less stringent environmental standards to fill the void and reap the benefits. “As this analysis shows, lifting the ban on crude exports in 2015 saved Americans money at the pump, supported thousands of good-paying American jobs, and reduced our country’s dependence on foreign oil,” said AXPC CEO Anne Bradbury. “At a time when Americans are hurting from the price at the pump, it’s clear that increasing the global supply of crude oil is critical to lower energy prices here at home and greater energy security around the globe.” While the news may come as a surprise to some people and politicians, organizations including the Institute for Energy Research say this is precisely what needs to be done. “In a basic economic sense, increasing the market for a product is likely to lead to increased production of that product,” IER director of policy Kenny

Stein said. “So, allowing U.S. oil to be sold to anyone at higher international prices naturally led to increased domestic investment and production.” Additionally, a crucial problem with the crude oil export ban was U.S. refineries on the Gulf Coast were not designed to refine the types of light oil that were booming due to the hydraulic fracturing revolution. If the light oil could not be exported and domestic demand was limited, Stein said there was little incentive to continue investing in increased production. “Lifting the export ban allowed domestic production to truly take off, turning the U.S. into a net oil exporter for the first time in more than 50 years,” Stein said. “Lifting the export ban should always have been considered a slam-dunk policy move, all upside, and no downside, and this study shows that clearly.” Linnea Lueken, a research fellow with the Arthur B. Robinson Center on Climate and Environmental Policy at The Heartland Institute, said Biden administration policies are not hurting, not helping prices. “Recent restrictions on domestic oil and gas production, namely moratoriums on leasing and similar hostility have had the opposite effect,” Lueken said. “The U.S. is capable of being not only energy independent but energy dominant too.” Environmental groups are not fond of natural gas or LNG exports. Organizations, including the Sierra Club, have long argued that “natural gas production creates greenhouse gas emissions every step of the way” before it is ultimately consumed at, say, a power plant. “Exported natural gas must be liquefied, kept cold, transported overseas, then regasified before it can be used,” wrote Sierra Club in a 2021 report. “All of these extra steps translate into (carbon dioxide) emissions up to 21 percent greater than plain old natural gas.” Still, supporters of natural gas say the United States is the best choice to go after these and other fossil fuels. “Natural gas and LNG exports are particularly important to the U.S. economy,” Lueken said. “If production and exploration for oil and gas were allowed to continue the way it was before, and if an expansion of our export capacity was encouraged by removing unnecessary regulatory hurdles, we could also play a role in helping our European allies cushion the blow of potentially losing exports from Russia.” ABOUT THE WRITER Chris Woodward writes about industry and technology for InsideSources.com.

Letters to the Editor Someone was missing

I am writing to thank you for hosting the first gubernatorial debate of this campaign season. Last Friday, I was watching the debate you hosted and noticed something, or rather, someone, was missing. Of the multiple candidates running for governor of Oregon, only three of them were invited to attend. A duly elected Libertarian candidate, R Leon Noble, had been excluded and I would like to know why. Mr. Noble earned the nomination of the Libertarian Party of Oregon during their primary election held last June. Unlike other “minor” parties, Libertarians do not need to spend millions of dollars on a primary campaign in order to ensure ballot access. With our closed primary rules, we are able to develop personal relationships between candidates and constituents, not just throw dollars around trying to buy votes. Was R Leon Noble excluded because he is not a woman? Oh, I have your attention now, don’t I? Or was he excluded because in this day of “Pay to Play” politics, he has yet to raise the millions of dollars already in the coffers of the three female politicians who appeared on the ONPA stage. Furthermore, Ms. Johnson is still in the process of collecting signatures in order to appear on the ballot in November. As mentioned above, Mr. Noble has

no such hurdle to overcome, yet he was excluded from the debate. Could it be in this age of political correctness, white privilege and toxic masculinity, that the ONPA doesn't want to hear from a white man? Are you trying to silence candidates who haven’t “paid their way” into the governor’s race? Or is it Mr. Noble’s ideas that you are afraid of? Are you concerned that the people of Oregon might hear a message that disturbs the status quo? Most Oregonians can agree that neither Ms. Kotek, Ms. Drazen, nor Ms. Johnson represent them. Why can’t those disenfranchised voters hear from a candidate who will? I don't know about you, but the platform of safety and security, liberty and equality and the economy sounds to me like just what Oregon needs to hear right now. If you would like to learn more about the Libertarian candidate for governor, R Leon Noble, please visit his website: SetOregonFree.com Or better yet, give him the opportunity to reach the voters of Oregon that was previously denied him and invite him to the debate that is planned for October of this year. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sharlyn Cox Legacy Media Director for Set Oregon Free Roseburg, OR

Guest Column

Will salmon finally win this year? By ROCKY BARKER For the last 35 years I’ve been covering what we call the “salmon wars” in the Pacific Northwest, writing so many stories about salmon heading toward extinction that I’ve lost count. The decline occurred year by year while we spent $18 billion on what’s politely called “mitigation.” That meant building fish passages around dams without fish ladders or snatching fish from warming rivers and trucking them around dams before they died. Nothing has ever worked. The truth is that some dams must be removed if salmon are to have a prayer of leaving the ocean and swimming up rivers to spawn. Now, finally, there is a sign of hope for the fish even as Snake River salmon in the states of Idaho, Oregon and Washington remain close to extinction. There’s hope because the Biden administration has been in settlement talks with legal plaintiffs the state of Oregon, the Nez Perce tribe, and sporting, fishing and environmental groups. They have sued the federal government five times over its failed attempts to save salmon under the Endangered Species Act, and each time the government has lost. Meanwhile, spring chinook, sockeye and steelhead trended toward extinction in the Snake River watershed, which includes their best remaining habitat in the lower 48 states. In 1997, my newspaper, the Idaho Statesman, wrote a series of editorials calling for breaching the four lower Snake dams in Washington to restore salmon abundance. The editorials urged paying for the impacts on dam removal on power supply, grain transportation and irrigation as a more effective and cheaper fix than continuing failed policies. The federal government chose to spend $18 billion on those failed policies. But now, the Biden administration and others recognize that restoring our rivers is an issue of tribal justice as well as the only real solution. For far too long, say biologists Rick Williams of Idaho and Jim Lichatowich of Oregon, we have treated salmon as an industrial commodity. Our reliance on hatcheries while we continue to fragment and destroy habitat has been at the root of the fish’s struggles. But if we remove the chief obstacles that block the fish from their cool, high elevation-habitat, the biologists say, these wild, adaptable fish will recover themselves. “Because of our long reliance on substitute nature, we’ve almost lost faith in salmon to reproduce itself in quality habitat,” Williams says. It has taken decades, but much of the public has come to understand the folly of our industrial fixes for salmon. In the May Republican primary, U.S. Rep. Mike Simpson won reelection by a landslide after introducing a plan to breach the four dams to save salmon and make impacted communities whole. His losing opponent opposed breach-

Rocky Barker ing the dams. More significant, Washington Democratic Sen. Patty Murray, who has long resisted any salmon recovery plan that included removing the four dams, joined with Washington Democratic Gov. Jay Inslee in endorsing a study of how to replace the services provided by the dams. The study showed that breaching the four dams was the most promising approach to salmon recovery, though it would require spending from $10.3 billion to $27.2 billion to replace the electricity from the dams’ hydropower, plus grain shipping and irrigation. Murray is the most powerful Northwestern senator in Congress. But she will need the rest of the Democratic delegation to join her if she is going to turn the tide. Most of all, Washington Democratic Sen. Maria Cantwell and Oregon Democratic Rep. Peter DeFazio will need to join Murray, Simpson, Oregon Democratic Rep. Earl Blumenauer, and outgoing Oregon Gov. Kate Brown, if legislation is going to pass this year. The resilience of the wild Snake salmon and the quality of the high-elevation spawning habitat has led biologists to predict the fish will reverse the 40-year extinction trend if the four dams are removed. This might just be the year that rivers and salmon are set free, ending the salmon wars. Here’s hoping. Rocky Barker is a contributor to Writers on the Range, writersontherange.org, a nonprofit dedicated to spurring lively conversation about the West. He is a retired reporter who lives in Idaho and is the author of Saving All the Parts: Reconciling Economics and the Endangered Species Act.

Ballot Title: CAPTION: Prohibits the establishment of psilocybin-related businesses for two years QUESTION: Shall electors prohibit the establishment of psilocybin-related business for two-years within the City of Reedsport? STATEMENT: The Oregon Health Authority has not completed the rulemaking process for implementing the state’s psilocybin regulatory program, and the City Council is uncertain how the manufacture, delivery and administration of psilocybin at licensed facilities will operate within the city. ORS 475A.718 provides that a city council may adopt an ordinance to be referred to the electors of the city prohibiting the establishment of state licensed psilocybin product manufacturers and/or psilocybin service centers in the city. The City Council believes that prohibiting psilocybin product manufacturers and psilocybin service centers within the city’s jurisdictional boundaries to enable the adoption of the state’s psilocybin licensing and regulatory program and to allow the city to adopt reasonable time, place, and manner regulations on the operation of psilocybin facilities is in the best interest of the health, safety and welfare of the citizens.

Angove leads Prefontaine Track Club at Junior Olympics By JOHN GUNTHER For The World

Recent Bandon High School graduate Hunter Angove had the top finish for the Prefontaine Track Club at the Junior Olympics national meet last weekend in Sacramento, Calif. A total of five members of the club, from Coos Bay, North Bend, Coquille and Bandon, made the trip for the competition. Angove finished fourth in the pole vault for the 17-18 age group, clearing 4.45 meters (14 feet, 7 ¼ inches). He cleared his opening height on his first attempt and then missed all three tries at 15-1. The winner, Landon Helms, cleared 16-4 ¾. The meet capped a big season for Angove, who won the high school state title to help Bandon to the Class 2A team championship, then won his division in a national meet at Hayward Field in Eugene. He also was state and regional champion for Junior Olympics and improved his previous best by 9 inches when he cleared 15-9 at the state meet. He nearly got over 16 feet at the regional meet. Angove starts this fall at the University of Oregon, where he will attend school on an Evans Scholarship, for caddies. There is a chance he also will compete for the Ducks in track and field. The only Prefontaine Track Club member to compete in two events at nationals was Addison Horning, who will be a seventh-grader at North Bend this fall. Horning placed 15th in the 1,500 meters with her time of 5 minutes and 27.41 seconds. That placed her 13th in the fast heat for the 11-12 age group. The winner, Ava Padilla, was timed in 4:48.52 in the same heat. Horning also was 21st in the

3,000 in 12:14.25, placing sixth in the slower heat. Padilla won that event, too, in 10:25.28. Horning had never run the 3,000 before the state Junior Olympics meet, but had a stellar debut season in the 1,500. She was grateful to her coach, Brandon Mead, who talked her into competing in track and then kept her training rigorous, but fun, said her parents, Brad and Heather, Horning. “We are also grateful to Jonathan Vinyard, who encouraged and supported her at regionals and nationals,” Heather Horning said. “They are doing great things for kids in our area.” Vinyard’s twin sons, Logan and Cooper Vinyard, competed in the long jump at the national meet in the 8-and-under age group. Logan Vinyard placed 23rd with a leap of 2.94 meters (9 feet, 7 ¾ inches). Cooper Vinyard was 27th with a jump of 2.86 meters (9-4 ¾). The winner of the event, Ian Millage, soared 11-11. The other Prefontaine Track Club member at the national meet was Reagan Krantz of Coquille, who placed 23rd in the 17-18 girls pole vault by clearing 2.65 meters (8-8 ¼). Krantz cleared her opening height on her first attempt, but wasn’t able to get over the bar at 9-2 ¼. Winner Tessa Mudd cleared 14 feet. Krantz also was coming off a stellar high school season, when she helped Coquille win its first-ever team state title in a girls sport. Jonathan Vinyard had praise for the athletes for the efforts at the national meet and over the summer. “I’m super proud of all the athletes that dedicated their time and effort to the summer track program,” he said. “There are many things these athletes could have chosen to do over their summer, so I’m thankful they decided to

compete. It was a long season and they all participated in track and field during the spring for their schools or local club.” He noted that for most of them, the regional meet in Washington and the national meet were the first time they had traveled outside the state and competed against athletes from around the nation. He hopes it is a valuable experience and that the ones who still are eligible will compete again next summer when the national meet is in Oregon. “As a coach, I could tell just by the looks on their faces and their body language that it was a little overwhelming,” he said. “None of the kids looked comfortable, relaxed or focused. Again, I think that’s attributed to the newness of first-time competitors at a major national track meet.” None of the club’s athletes set personal bests at the meet, but that doesn’t mean they didn’t do well, Vinyard said. “Obviously every Prefontaine Track Club athlete wanted to go and perform at their very best, and I wholeheartedly believe they did,” he said. “Now each has this experience under their belt and can draw upon that experience at the next one at historic Hayward Field. I told the kids it’s just another tool they can add to their tool belt.” Vinyard also hopes the summer experience helps the program. “My hope is that our club continues to grow,” he said. “There is a place for any athlete who wants to compete. “I want to thank the Prefontaine Track Club and all the volunteer coaches for their efforts in providing uniforms and quality mentoring and leadership for our young student athletes here in Coos County. It wouldn’t be possible without them.”

Bandon Dunes volunteers, staff pay off at U.S. Amateur By JOHN GUNTHER For The World

The volunteers and staff rose to the occasion during the 74th U.S. Junior Amateur at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort, helping create another memorable United States Golf Association championship at the resort. Bandon Dunes has now hosted eight different USGA events in the past 16 years — the first facility to host eight different USGA championships — and received similar praise following Wenyi Ding’s victory in the 36-hole final on the Bandon Dunes course on Saturday. Caleb Surratt, who was runner-up to Ding, described Bandon Dunes as “pretty amazing.” “It’s golf like no other,” he said. “You can’t find golf like this anywhere except out of the country. It’s a pretty awesome

experience.” Bandon Dunes has had a long partnership with the USGA, fostered by Bandon Dunes owner Mike Keiser, a great backer of amateur golf. “At USGA, we are so proud of our relationship with Bandon,” said Fred Perpall, the president-elect for USGA. “It’s a real home for amateur golf.” Perpall was also at Bandon Dunes for the U.S. Amateur in 2020, and said he again came away impressed with the facility and its staff. “This is the result of people who really love golf,” he said, adding it takes that love to create the experience of the resort. “I think it’s one of the most special places in the world of golf. “It just feels like home. The staff, and the way it’s run, there’s just a warmth to the place. That kind of warmth is not something you can fake.”

Bandon Dunes has five 18-hole courses, and Keiser and his children also have created the Sand Valley resort in Wisconsin and helped build the two Cabot Cape Breton courses in Nova Scotia, Canada. “What (Mike) and his family continue to do to elevate this game deserves to go down in history,” Perpall said, before referring specifically back to Bandon Dunes. “This place will stand the test of time,” he said, adding, “The best part is this place is accessible to anyone.” The resort’s officials were pleased with the tournament, and especially the volunteers and staff. “The volunteer effort was fantastic,” said Jeff Simonds, the resort’s assistant general manager and senior director of operations, who oversaw the event for Bandon Dunes. “We had 185 volunteers, the most we’ve had at any championship.”

The annual Circle the Bay road race is just over a week away. The scenic 30-kilometer (18.6-mile) race starts and ends in North Bend’s Ferry Road Park on Saturday, Aug. 13. Walkers will start the race at 6:30 p.m., while the runners — individuals and those who are part of three-person relay teams — begin at 8 a.m. The route takes runners from North Bend through Coos Bay along the waterfront, then through Eastside and out the Coos River Highway and back to North Bend along East Bay Drive. The finishing stretch includes crossing the historic McCullough Bridge. For runners who have not yet already registered, the fee is $55 for members of the South Coast Running Club and $70 for non-members. Relay teams pay $150. People can sign up on-line through the running club’s website, www.southcoastrunningclub.org. All participants are invited to join in a post-race picnic in the park. Runners and walkers also should be aware the entire course is open to traffic so safety should be a top priority during the race. For more information, visit www.southcoastrunningclub.org.

AS I SEE IT: Coastal Roads BY MARY SCHAMEHORN I continue to be fascinated with stories about our area more than a hundred years ago, and to realize just how much good roads meant to our pioneer forefathers. This week I will utilize all three of my photos to emphasize "What a Coast Road Would Mean For This Section," which was the headline of a Dec. 16, 1915, article in the Western World. For years, Coos County had been advocating for a year-around highway from the mouth of the Columbia river to the California line, and it appeared that a solution might be worked out so that the federal government could share in the $7 million project. The plan was for the highway to be considered a coast defense highway to follow the shore line of the Paciﬁc ocean from Puget sound to Mexico. "To Coos and Curry counties the construction of a coast Highway means inﬁnitely more than a means of defending our 300 miles of coast line from invasion by an enemy; it means a vast improvement in social and economic life of the rural districts and development of their resources. Primarily, lumbering is the leading industry of these two counties and will be for years to come, but as the timber line gradually recedes from the towns and cities that are now the center for the extensive logging and milling operations and new centers spring into existence, the present towns must look to the land for permanent support.

Seventh-Day aDventiSt church Head Elder Allan Cram 541-297-6575

Bandon, North Bend and Marshﬁeld will always be the shipping centers for this part of the state because of their facilities for cheap transportation by water, provided they get into closer communication with the rural districts and the source of supply of the agricultural products which will eventually be more valuable than the timber." Because the area is so isolated, "A man might as well take his family to a small island in mid-Paciﬁc as onto a large portion of these ranches and homesteads. He could hardly be more effectively cut off from his fellow man and markets for his produce. "Such life is a mere existence and its victims can hope for nothing else until these isolated districts are connected with the shipping points and markets by roads -- good roads that may be traveled the year around (by vehicles like photo one, which I found in the same issue of the paper)." "The region of southern Coos and northern Curry counties presents a fair example of what the farmers and dairymen must face, even where they are situated along the roads leading to Bandon (the second photo shows what it was like driving north into the valley along the Umpqua River). "Nine months in the year the roads are passable only to teams (like photo number three) hauling light loads and the haul of from 16 to 20 miles consumes an entire day. Five dollars is the average cost of transporting each ton of freight to Bandon, making the freight rate to San Francisco and Portland $8

BANDON CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP (A Calvary Chapel Fellowship)

and $8.50 respectively. "With a hard surfaced road along this route it is estimated that auto trucks would cut the hauling cost to about one-tenth the present figure. "Some of the families residing back in the hills are of necessity almost self supporting. Flour, salt and other foodstuffs and clothing which they cannot raise or make, must be transported for miles over narrow trails on pack animals. Children must be educated at home and many families are beyond reach of medical aid in times of sickness. "A convincing instance of the isolation of some of these families is the case of a boy of 18 years old and his sister, aged 20, who were born and raised on a homestead several miles from the coast. "In 1912 they saw their first automobile while on a visit to Port Orford and during the summer just past they saw an electric light and attended a moving picture show for the first time in their lives, at Bandon. Neither have ever seen a railroad train or a street car." "The Coast Highway will be the main artery from which branch roads can be easily built to tap the rich inland sections. Such a road would not only develop the agricultural resources, but also the great amounts of valuable timber and the rich deposits of gold iron ore and coal of the inland country. The tie and matchwood timber alone in the inaccessible parts of the country is worth millions of dollars."

This week I will utilize all three of my photos to emphasize "What a Coast Road Would Mean For This Section," which was the headline of a Dec. 16, 1915, article in the Western World. The article adds that because of a lack of roads, fewer tourists visit our beaches than those of any other sea coast state in the country. "Only at three or four points is Oregon coast accessible to the motorist from the inland section of the state and to open to vacationists and tourists the paradise of our beaches would justify the expenditure of the sum necessary to construct the Coast Highway," said the article. --------------------------------Realizing how important the transient occupancy tax (TOT) is to the ﬁnancial health of the City of Bandon, the council recently approved going to the voters at a special election Aug. 23 to raise the TOT from 6 cents to 9.5, which would bring Bandon in line with neighboring tourist communities including Coos Bay, North Bend and the Coquille Indian Tribe, all at 9.5 percent. The TOT is 10 percent in both Seaside and Tillamook. An increase to 9.5 percent would yield an additional $400,000 to $500,000 per year for Bandon. By law 70 percent of those additional funds must be devoted to tourism promotion and tourism related facilities. Only 30 percent of the new money can go to general government purposes. The biggest expense in the general fund is the Bandon Police Department. It is important to point out that because of Bandon's very low property tax (.46 cents a thousand), the city receives only about $200,000 in property tax revenue, but more than

Grahek said, "our South Coast farmers have been under siege by a local native bird called the bandtailed pigeon. Farmers have been challenged to keep the birds from devouring berries just as they are ripening for harvest or u-pick customers. Shooting off a shotgun will scare the ﬂocks the away, but it is only a temporary measure. These farmers only get one crop a year from their plants so it is quite a hardship to lose berries to the birds. This is not a problem every year, why this year?" Grahek pointed out that this time of year, the pigeons would be feasting on red elderberries, but because of a warm period that encouraged shrubs to bloom followed by a long cold period that kept the pollinators from showing up, the result was fewer blooms pollinated, thus less fruit. --------------------------------Although details are not available, the Bandon police report, posted in the World for July 19-25, ranged from two disturbance calls, a hit and run in the 60 block of 10th St SE, an overdose on Two Mile Lane, an assault at a Second Street address, four theft calls, a criminal trespass, a burglary in the 300 block of 11th Street SE, and a DUII.

$100K grant targets predatory bass A formidable new weapon is coming to defend the Coquille River’s salmon. An electrofishing boat, paid for with a $100,000 grant from the Spirit Mountain Community fund, will help the Coquille Indian Tribe target invasive bass that prey on juvenile salmon.

“This is another great example of community partners coming together,” said Coquille Tribal Chairman Brenda Meade. The Spirit Mountain fund is the grant-making arm of the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde. The $100,000 is

a tangible example of Oregon tribes working together for the welfare of tribal members and the broader society. After learning last year that fall Chinook salmon had become perilously scarce on the Coquille River, the Coquille Tribe announced an ambitious

plan to rescue and restore the cherished fish. Zapping and netting predatory bass is one of several tactics the tribe has employed. So far, the tribe has used an electrofishing boat on loan from the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. Once the new boat

is outfitted and launched, the tribe and ODFW can double-team the unwelcome invaders. The tribe and ODFW recently signed a co-management agreement, creating a partnership to protect salmon and other natural resources in the Coquille River watershed.

2022 reappraisal process begins in Coos County The Coos County Assessor’s Office recently announced the start of the 2022 reappraisal of Coos County residential properties. Reappraisals are done to ensure the accuracy of the inventory in the assessor’s records and to check that assessment values are

indicative of the market. During August and September, the appraisal staff will continue reappraisals in the Coos Bay/North Bend area, working north toward Lakeside. Annually, a different portion of the county will be visited, with the entire county slated for

re-appraisal over the next several years. Each year in March or April, the area to be reappraised will be announced in local papers and broadcast media. At a property, a visual inspection will be made from the street. If not visible from the street or

if changes are noted, the appraisers will knock on your door to introduce themselves. If you would prefer to be present at the time of the visit, please call or email to make arrangements to meet, and give a daytime contact phone number. If no one is home

at the time of the visit, appraisers will complete an exterior inspection of the property and leave a card with contact phone numbers should you have any questions. It is the assessor’s responsibility to maintain an accurate inventory of

all properties located in the county. If you have any questions or concerns, contact the assessor's office at (541) 396-7900, or Gordon at (541) 396-7905, or by email at: gwest@ co.coos.or.us or sjansen@ co.coos.or.us.

Avian flu confirmed Coos County teen runs away from in Coos County Oregon Youth Authority custody backyard flock On July 28, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal Plant Health Inspection Service confirmed a case of highly pathogenic avian influenza in a non-commercial flock in Coos County. This is the first confirmed case of HPAI in Coos County. Other Oregon counties with confirmed HPAI cases include Deschutes, Lane, Linn and Polk counties. The Coos County flock of approximately 25 birds, is a mix of chickens and ducks. The flock owners did not sell eggs or other poultry products therefore federal guidelines do no not require a quarantine. USDA in partnership with ODA, humanely euthanized the flock on the property to prevent the spread of the disease. The birds will not enter the food system. There is no immediate public concern due to the avian influenza virus detection. Avian influenza does not affect poultry meat or egg

products, which remain safe to eat. Both wild and domestic poultry should be adequately prepared and cooked. ODA advises commercial poultry and backyard flock owners to be vigilant with biosecurity measures and surveillance. Preventing any contact between wild birds and domestic flocks is the best way to protect domestic birds from HPAI. Death or illness among domestic birds should be reported to ODA. Please report by calling 503-986-4711 (Alt phone 1-800-347-7028). To report the death of wild birds, contact the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife by calling 1-866-968-2600 or email Wildlife.Health@odfw. oregon.gov.

Taylor Pennington, a 19-year-old committed to Oregon Youth Authority custody, ran away from Camp Florence Youth Transitional Facility in Florence at about 4:30 p.m. on July 29, 2022. OYA staff immediately conducted a search for Pennington but were unable to bring him back into custody. A warrant has been issued, and law enforcement was notified. Pennington had been committed to OYA custody in October 2020 out of Coos County. Anyone who sees

Pennington should call 911. “We want to make sure that Taylor is safe,” said Jenny Smith, an OYA spokesperson. “If you know anything about his whereabouts, please report it.” Camp Florence is one of four step-down transitional facilities at OYA designed to prepare youth for their return to the community. Transitional facilities have lower security than youth correctional facilities and are reserved for youth who have made significant progress in their treatment and reformation plans.

full with roads, solid waste and some other things we had going on and had little time for parks," Sweet said. "In some future time, perhaps we will go back and consider putting parks back into public works." The two commissioners also voted unanimously to adopt a new UTV/ATV policy for the county. The policy will only be enforced for county employees and is a move to reduce the risk the county faces when employees us UTVs or ATVs for county business. “We've had some very serious incidents with UTVs and ATVs, so I think this is good to have a policy," Sweet said. The policy mandates certain safety steps required before county employees can use the vehicles for work. The steps include items like inspecting the vehicle before getting on it and using a helmet when riding. Sweet raised some concerns about the policy in regards to the county fair, where employees regularly use ATVs to move around the ground. He said the fair employees make many, short trips during the fair and said the policy of inspecting the vehicle before every ride could be difficult for them. Instead, Sweet suggested making the inspections once a day. He also questioned the need for helmets in the shorter, slower rides. The county is currently facing a lawsuit after an incident where someone was injured riding a UTV without a helmet. Main said his biggest concern was with the sheriff’s department. “I was getting a hold of the sheriff's office because I didn't know if they were consulted,” Main said. “They go through extensive training for their UTVs and ATVs." Capt. Gabriel Fabrizio told commissioners the sheriff’s department has its own policies. Under the new policy, if the sheriff’s policy is stricter than the county policy, no changes would be needed, "Is there a certain classification of helmet? There's all kinds of helmets and hundreds and hundreds of riders," Main said. After the discussion, commissioners voted to implement the policy.

Bandon resident, Gary Baty, crosses the Rogue River during last year’s Bike the Rogue.

12th annual Rotary Bike the Rogue set September 10 The 12th Annual Rotary “Bike the Rogue” bicycling event will take place Saturday, September 10, in Gold Beach, offering spectacular scenery, low-traffic roads, great food, and SAG support. Riders have their choice of three different routes through this wild and remote southwestern corner of Oregon: 23 miles/1,100 vertical feet ($45); 38 miles/2,000 vertical feet ($55); and 62 miles/3,700 vertical feet ($65). All three rides follow the banks of the Rogue River, and cross at least two bridges. The 38- and 62 mile-rides finish along the Pacific Ocean, with panoramic views of beaches, sea stacks and rugged coastline.

A continental breakfast for all registered riders will be provided to kick off the event, and wellstocked rest stations will be positioned every seven to 15 miles along the route. At the end of the ride, there will be a cold Arch Rock beer waiting for thirsty bikers, and a free custom-ordered, wood-fired pizza from the Wandering Pizzaioli food truck. The Rotary Club of Gold Beach hosts Bike the Rogue in collaboration with sponsors Century 21 Agate Realtor Mary Stansell, Umpqua Bank and the city of Gold Beach. First Chapter Coffee House of Gold Beach will serve coffee during registration, and High Hill Cycles of Gold Beach will provide SAG support

and technical assistance. Registration for “Bike the Rogue” will start at 7 a.m. on Sept. 10 in Buffington Park for those who have not pre-registered. The entrance to the park is four blocks east of Highway 101 on Gauntlet Street in Gold Beach. Registration and waiver forms are available at the “Bike the Rogue” website: www.http:// goldbeachrotary.com/bike-therogue/, or Google “Bike the Rogue, Gold Beach.” This is a “safety first” event, and bicycle helmets are required. For additional information about “Bike the Rogue,” visit the “Bike the Rogue” website or email biketherogue@gmail.com.

Have you seen them yet this summer? A cloud of birds spiraling down into someone’s chimney tends to catch people’s attention. So what birds fly down and up Pacific Northwest chimneys? Vaux’s swifts. Up close, Vaux’s swifts are dark gray birds with rump and underparts that are lighter gray, and with a black smudge in front of each eye. Perhaps not all that impressive in appearance, swifts’ aerial agility more than makes up for their looks. The tiny hunters dart through the air at high speeds, suddenly turning and twisting to catch their flying insect prey. A little over 4” long and with a wingspan just under a foot, Vaux’s swifts are a little smaller than chimney swifts, and are the smallest swift in North America. (While our swifts will roost and nest in chimneys, “chimney swifts” are a different species, found in eastern North America.) Although the name looks French, the bird is named after Englishman William S. Vaux, who pronounced his name “Vawk,” giving the bird’s name pronunciation as “Vawk’s swift.” Swifts are usually noticed as they leave or enter communal roosting or nesting sites in chimneys, chimneys being an urban substitute for the natural hollow trees and snags the birds generally nest in. While swifts can’t wrap their toes around something to perch, the tiny birds can cling to the wall by hanging by their toenails. What kind of nest does one build inside a chimney? A few small twigs held together and glued to the wall with saliva -spit. (Spit-infused Asian swiftlet nests are the key ingredient in classical “birds nest soup,” though most American restaurants today don’t serve soup featuring that expensive feature.) Swift nests are barely large enough to contain the three to seven young ones. Yes, sometimes the babies fall into the fireplace. (If that should happen, gently pick up the little one and ease it back up into the chimney where it can grab hold of the wall again. Fortunately, they’re nesting when we’re not apt to build fires.) Youngsters fledge very quickly, however, and are able to leave the nest within three weeks of hatching. Swifts in a chimney are usually audible, too, making chattery or chirpy calls to each other

Marty Giles rather than full-blown songs. As you might expect, families are especially noisy as each meal arrives. We have other airborne hunters, too, notably swallows and bats, but you can usually tell them apart from the ground by watching their flight patterns. Swifts seem to vibrate in flight, stiff wings beating constantly and almost too fast to see; swallows repeatedly flutter and glide. Swift wings seem stiffer, narrower, and more swept-back than swallow wings (they remind me of nearly-straightened out boomerangs); swifts have tails so short they barely extend past the body while swallows usually have more noticeable tails -- and swift tail feathers end in stiff quill-points. Swallows perch on wires and such, swifts cling to vertical wood and walls. Bat flight is also different from swift flight: bat flight tends to be more erratic in rhythm and direction. And bats usually fly about on the darker side of dusk and dawn than swifts and swallows fly. Why might you notice Vaux’s swifts in Coos County in August? Soon now, the newly fledged youngsters will probably increase the number of Vaux’s swifts flying about, and the birds, old and young, will start to gather for their southward migration. By the time you’re ready to build a cozy fire, they may already be wintering in Central America.

The Chamber Minute: Make business contacts Top 10 reasons to join the Chamber: Number 5, Make Business Contacts. As a business person, one of the most important things you do is to get the word out about what you produce, its excellent value, your great staff and where you can be found. At the Chamber of Commerce our purpose is to get people together to promote the development of a healthy economic and social climate. This past couple years, with the dominance of the pandemic, we all have had to find ways to make those connections virtually, and now we

are returning to actual gatherings. Over 20 years ago, a group of Chamber businesses and the college got together to propose an event that would inform us about the developments on the national, state and regional economic fronts and celebrate local efforts and successes throughout the past year. Through that effort the Economic Outlook Forum was launched. This past December, the Forum was both virtual and in person with a wonderful participation. The annual Chamber of Commerce Awards

banquet is traditionally held the last Saturday in January. Besides acknowledging the Officers, Board members, and Committee Chairs for the past year, and introducing the members who will serve in those roles for the upcoming year, we have a variety of awards and recognitions which truly make this a community celebration. It’s a unique opportunity to make connections with a wonderful gathering highlighting our mutual successes. In our everchanging world, we are looking

to stage many of our networking opportunities, like our Business after Hours programs, making you the focus of an evening, with two hours to acquaint everyone with what makes your operation special! Also, our Wednesday Business Connection luncheon will return in September to give you many opportunities to promote yourself. Whether it’s the open mic you can use to introduce new staff or products, door prizes provided for drawings at the end of the session or giving a business spotlight. How about becoming

active in one of our committees like Tourism, Education or Business Development? Not only are you visible in the community, but you are making it a better place to live. So, come on down and join the team today. Remember our business is helping your business, and like us on Facebook. (Timm Slater is executive director of the Bay Area Chamber of Commerce. For more information on your Chamber, email timmslater@ oregonsbayarea.org.)

Elakha Alliance praises new sea otter report On Wednesday, July 27, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service released a report (https://www. fws.gov/project/sea-otter-feasibility-assessment) to Congress on the feasibility of reintroducing sea otters to their former range on the Pacific coast. The report was required by Public Law 116-260 at the request of Senator Jeff Merkley (D-OR) and enacted by Congress in late December 2020. Jane Bacchieri, executive director of the Elakha Alliance, an Oregon nonprofit organization advocating for the restoration of sea otters on the Oregon coast, commented, “I commend the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for this outstanding report. It sets the stage for thoughtful, careful restoration of sea otters along the Pacific Coast. I am pleased that its findings, aimed at northern California and Oregon, match those in the Elakha Alliance Feasibility Study completed last December.”

Both studies conclude that reintroducing sea otters would result in major conservation benefits to the species and would have a wide range of ecological benefits in the marine and estuarine environments. Both caution that additional social and economic studies are needed. Neither study recommends specific restoration sites or numbers, but both provide guidance for future work to do so. Bacchieri added that “we agree that a lot more work is needed at the local level to address risks and uncertainties, especially around impacts to communities and existing ocean users. This is why we have started to engage with communities on the southern Oregon coast. We hope our work at the local level will be a model for how other reintroductions will be planned.” The report references a more detailed scientific feasibility study (https://www.elakhaal-

liance.org/feasibility-study/) conducted for the Elakha Alliance that is posted on the Elakha Alliance website. Bacchieri expressed appreciation that the report acknowledges the guidelines of the IUCN SSC (International Union for Conservation of Nature Species Survival Commission). “The IUCN provides a much-needed set of standards by which to plan for and carry out reintroduction of sea otters. Our work is meeting those standards.” Bacchieri concluded that “this comprehensive report provides clear direction for future actions to be taken in concert by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, state wildlife agencies, private conservation organizations, community partners and ocean users to chart a path to successful reintroduction of this important keystone species.” The Elakha Alliance is an Oregon nonprofit organization incorporated in 2018 with a mission

Its board includes members with tribal, nonprofit, scientific, government and conservation backgrounds. The Alliance commissioned a scientific feasibility study, com-
