The best cranberries are grown right here By SEAN DOYLE For The Pilot
One of the things that makes Bandon beautiful, fabulous, vibrant and unique is the local cranberry business. The industry is part of Bandon’s identity. Cranberry farmers are a valued (and colorful) part of the local culture and economy. Cranberries and cranberry farmers in Port Orford, Sixes, Langlois and Bandon are an integral part of the social fabric that binds people, families and communities on the southern Oregon coast. Unfortunately, cranberry farming in Oregon is currently in decline. Locally there are fewer cranberry farmers, there is less bogland in production and the next generation of Bandon bog men and women are not firmly in place to maintain and expand the vital Oregon coastal cranberry business. The industry needs a boost. Firming cranberry prices will help, but more support is needed for the industry to thrive. Some say Bandon cranberries are the best cranberries in America. We agree! And if we can get cranberry buyers across America (and Asia) to recognize the brand “Bandon Cranberries” as the premier American cranberry (the coolest, funniest, happi-
est, healthiest berry), then demand will increase, and Bandon cranberry farmers can command premium prices. How can we promote “Bandon Cranberries”, so they fetch premium prices? Branding and marketing. Oregon’s largest company (Nike) and Bandon’s largest employer (Bandon Dunes) uses logos to identify and market their products. The Oregon coastal cranberry industry could benefit from a unifying and identifying brand stamp. A logo to distinguish “Bandon Cranberries” from all the other berries. This brandmark could be displayed on every Bandon cranberry farm, shipping container, package, giftbox, bumper-sticker, label, advert and tee shirt. Every product that utilizes local cranberries could proudly display the “Bandon Cranberries” logo to showcase our premier berries and unique community. How can we establish a logo and unifying brand stamp for the Bandon Cranberry business? Sara Osborne of Peters’ Cranberries in association with BandonsBestBerries will sponsor a “Bandon Cranberries” Logo Contest with a cash prize. A committee of local cranberry growers and artists will judge the contest, choose a Bandon Cranberry
Brandmark and award $1,200 in cash prizes. Peters’ Cranberries and BBB will stamp or stencil the new Bandon Cranberries logo on all goods. (Contest details to follow in Coffee Break). How can hard-working Bandon cranberry farmers avoid being divided, manipulated and underpaid? How can independent berry farmers and larger corporate interests work better together for mutual prosperity? We don’t have all the answers on how to revitalize the Oregon coastal cranberry business, but with help from local artists we will come up with a beautiful, eye-catching Bandon Cranberry logo, for all to use to help build a unified brand. State and Federal money can also help Bandon farmers. The Oregon Department of Agriculture Specialty Crop Block Grant Program could potentially pay for a nationwide Bandon cranberry marketing campaign. Oregon politicians could do more. There are elections in November. Are there politicians who will fight for coastal cranberry farmers? Is there a candidate who backs funding for a nearby container loading facility, so “Bandon Cranberries” can be shipped More Berries, Page A2
Radio Rescue: National Host returns to save local station By JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net
It’s full-circle for Delilah. The national syndicated radio host has purchased KDUN Radio, a 50,000-watt AM station in Reedsport. It is the station where Delilah, as a teenager, got her start after accepting a job by the then-station owners Jerome and Steve Kenegy. Today, Delilah is heard by over 12 million listeners weekly on over 160 radio stations across the United States and internationally on the Armed Forces Network in Japan, Korea and Central Europe, on the iHeart Radio app, and through her podcast. “My whole professional life has been amazing and has allowed me to have an amazing opportunities and to go to great places, meet wonderful people
and it all started here,” she said. “And when the opportunity came to buy the station I couldn’t say no.” Community connector As a 40-year radio broadcast veteran, Delilah acknowledges that radio has been challenged over the past few years. “But nationally, over 85% of people still listen to radio at least once a day,” she said. “It is the most used media in America, so we have had some challenges, but we are still growing. In communities like Reedsport, especially, radio is vitally important, so important that people have a voice, so important that they have a way to connect, so important that they have an opportunity to communicate with each other and radio is the More Radio, Page A3

Chief White's past facilitates Cancel culture claims his love for the community Curry County cats By MICHAEL COMBEST For The Pilot
In the summer of 2018, Jordan White and his wife Natalie visited Gold Beach during a restorative 4,000mile road trip from Montana after the unexpected loss of White’s mother earlier that year. Looking for a fresh start, the Whites chose to visit Curry County for its coastline and contacted local law enforcement for a meet-and-greet. Unbeknownst to the Whites, the sheriff’s office was hiring. The elapsed time from the first handshake with Curry County Sheriff John Ward to a signed offer letter was a total of five days
and included a weekend. In those five days, Ward became acquainted with Jordan White’s resume, background, and person, even interviewing his wife Natalie. What Ward found was a person who was practically engineered for the needs of Gold Beach and Curry County. This new face in town was a builder; an innovator; a level head; and a rare, frontiersman brand of “The Right Stuff” that NASA and novels have us attribute only to astronauts. Any person who would need to fit in well in the oceanside city of Gold Beach and county of
Curry would need to be familiar with things no plainsman could likely ever experience in our nation’s center stripe: ocean-based industry and hazards, happenings in the remotest of rugged places, forest fires, the timber/lumber industry, and know how to deal with very tough people in very tough situations, all while setting a public example of leadership in the capacity of resident and citizen. Many people might think that if a sheriff’s deputy arrests the bad guys, then they are doing their job. That may be true, but there is much more to it than that, particularly More White, Page A8
The north shore of the Gold Beach jetty has been home to a community project – the care, feeding, and housing for stray and feral cats. The love, care and affection the local cat lovers have lavished on the community’s least-wanted felines extended into medical care, neutering, re-housing the best candidates, etc. There have been three decades of community service dealing with litters of kittens that have been dropped off at the whimsical lighthouse and tiny village of houses at the mouth of the bay at Gold Beach. Tragically, all of this has come to an end. The cats are being carefully trapped and relocated. The quaint little village

Oregon Coast Aquarium welcomes Nemo the California sea lion
The Oregon Coast Aquarium (OCAq) is thrilled to welcome a new addition to its sea lion colony: Nemo the 24 year old male California sea lion. Nemo came to OCAq from Animal Training and Research International Center (ATR Intl) at Moss Landing Marine Laboratories, located in Monterey, California. Prior to his arrival to ATR Intl in 1998, Nemo was found stranded at two years of age and received care at SeaWorld San Diego. Nemo was one of the many victims of El Niño conditions, a climate event that disrupts food chains and adversely impacts marine animals. Nemo also sustained
an injury to his jaw that required the removal of bone fragments and multiple teeth. As this would compromise his ability to catch prey, Nemo was deemed non-releasable. During his time at ATR Intl Nemo participated in cooperative research training, education programs, and public outreach. ATR Intl suffered severe financial losses as a result of the COVID-19 health crisis; it was determined that finding new homes for their animals was the best way to ensure their long-term care and welfare. “I'm glad to have found a facility with such a similar outlook of compassionate care to my own

A board of directors was created. A local citizen was elected president. All things were assembled so that the care of the cats was done in a legal framework by people who understand community, business liability as well as animal rescue and care. Some of those involved have had their own animal rescue company or are involved in veterinary services, all while operating as businesspeople committed to the future of Gold Beach. The new group managing the cats and facility shared all of this voluminously on a Facebook group called Gold Beach Cat Jetty, which was launched in November 2021 and hosted by the president of the Gold Beach Cat Jetty & Feral Cat Alliance – Alice Hammermeister. The land the jetty cats lived on is owned by a local industrialist in good standing. The neighbors across Highway 101 from the jetty began to participate in the discussion on how the cats and their condition were going to be managed in the future. The neighbors, possibly for the first time ever, found a platform and a group with whom to discuss the manest. 1974 agement of the cat jetty. The neighbors shared their views regarding the cat houses being an attractor for people and happenings in their neighborhood that they would rather not be faced with if given the option. The neighbors spoke up on the Gold Beach Cat Jetty Facebook

platform. For reasons that have not been fully explained, these jetty cat neighbors were blocked from the Facebook group; they were canceled, to use the common term for being permanently banned from either social media platforms or other places, abruptly, often without a complete or falsifiable explanation. A well-meaning group moved in to manage an uncontested accommodation for area cats. The neighbors found out indirectly. The neighbors and landowner were canceled from the debate. The landowner was put in a position to have to act. They did act, by sending a letter stating, “[Y]ou have not reached out to those of us who are most directly affected, our opposition voice has been blocked on social media, and you have blocked the ability of anyone who opposes your posts to see what you’re advocating on social media.” The Gold Beach Jetty Cat organization has been allowed until the end of February to remove all the cats and all the structures associated with the jetty cats. Social media was used as a tool to divide a community. As a result, the TripAdvisor’d and Instagram-posted 30-years-famous jetty cats of Gold Beach have been evicted from the jetty because the admin of the Gold Beach Cat Jetty Facebook group blocked and canceled a neighborhood group out of a discussion in which those same neighbors had keen insight and investment. Since that time, Alice Hammermeister has resigned as president of Gold Beach Cat Jetty & Feral Cat Alliance, and the 501(c)(3) has been dissolved. The remaining group members are working to follow the letter of the written request to leave the property and take the cats and buildings away as well. When asked to comment on this county matter, County Commissioner Court Boice said, “I’m thankful as we’re seeing more and more of our citizens realizing we need to protect the special way of life we have here. I believe this is a very positive movement or even a worthy cause. It’s what the people of Curry County are seeing in the tragic cultural breakdowns within the urban-metro areas throughout Oregon and our country.”
The neighbors and landowners are just as big of cat lovers as the people who are more easily understood as being “Pro-Cat” in this dispute. It is apparent that there are no “Anti-Cat” people involved in this situation. The neighbors and landowners have been the most involved in the care of the cats - including the proper treatment of dead cats, to their own adoption of living cats - for all of the 30 years of the existence of the jetty cat houses. The timing for their change in desire to continue relates to there being only about eight cats on the jetty at this time. That number balloons up yearly but has not happened yet. Couple that timing with their being excluded from the debate relating to property for which they are 100% responsible, and it becomes clear that this is the best time for the land to transition away from being an unregulated cat sanctuary, on land that is not a county common area, even if a new and more organized group popped up committed to maintaining the site. The Gold Beach Jetty Cats organization did not approach this matter transparently and did shut off debate on their Facebook page. It makes it very hard to co-manage one’s own property and neighborhood when not allowed a voice. This was the right time for a change. Working very hard to set things back on an even and communicative plane, Gold Beach resident and business owner Annie Redwolf-Murphy is holding out hope that a new location can be found to place a set of very-well-architected and already-built houses for the jetty cats. The Facebook group titled Gold Beach Jetty Cats is not affiliated with this effort in any way. As of this writing, communication with the neighbors and landowners is very good, both parties speak to there being a positive and accommodating attitude on both sides. There is an ongoing effort to trap and remove the remaining eight-or-so cats, which are a combination of neutered pet candidates and feral. Redwolf-Murphy is positive she will make the end of month move-out deadline. She is not so sure about where the cats will make their next home.

way that can happen and is going to happen.” Delilah said major market radio is “pretty much a game between the big players, but in smaller markets, Reedsport, Florence, and Brookings, it is the voice of the town, the voice of the community and I think it is most important now more than ever,” she said. Delilah said her message to KDUN listeners is simple. “The town needs a voice,” she said. “A way to connect with each other.” Describing the pivotal point when she decided to purchase the station, Delilah said one of her Reedsport friends outlined frustration with not being able to find out accurate and timely information to help her elderly parents navigate safely through the COVID pandemic. “With that fresh in my mind with people frustrated with not being able to get good information and then the opportunity presented itself to buy the radio station, I just knew it was the right thing to do,” she said. Delilah said the radio station helps connect small town communities. “They need to have a voice,” she said. “They need to know what’s going on with the city council. They need to know what’s going on with the mayor. They need to know if the road is going to be widened again. They need to know if schools are canceled and their kids are not going to school because of COVID, or because of a flood. They need to know this information. There was no way for that information to be presented before we put the station back on the air.” Even though Delilah broadcasts her national radio show from her home in Washington state, she said she will frequently return to the Reedsport station. “I have a motor home and I have a farm in Sutherlin, so I spend a lot of time there, so I can easily come over,” she said. “I love it here.” Delilah added that local programming on the station will be key. “I didn’t buy the radio station for my syndicated show, I brought the station for its local content,” she said. “I will be happy to bump my show off the air when we are able to broadcast the local high school basketball and football games.” Classroom radio home KDUN is now located at Delilah’s former junior high school in Reedsport. “The junior high has been closed for about 20 years and is now owned by a couple that are artists and they have turned the building into an artist school, so they are leasing my old classroom to us and I have built the radio station in

I can’t pay the Kenegys back for what they did for me, but I can pay it forward. I am blessed to be able to reconnect with my history, my past and to provide an opportunity for the people to connect through the airwaves.” KDUN also is carried on the iHeart network, allowing anyone anywhere to listen through a streaming broadcast platform. “You can listen 24/7 and feel like you are back home again,” she said. KDUN engineer Bob Larson said the radio station had been off the air for approximately a year before Delilah purchased it. “If it had continued to be off the air any longer, it would likely have been gone forever,” Larson said. “There was no studio, other than the transmitter site, that was it. So, the community is very happy that we are back.” KDUN began rebroadcasting on Labor Day weekend in 2021, following the purchase. “And we have been going full-tilt from that time on,” he said. Larson said the station carries Fox News on the top of the hour and is planning local news in the future. KDUN also offers community service announcements and Larson conducts a daily

Keep the cat houses
As a former resident of Curry County and maybe again someday, I am concerned about moving the jetty cat houses. My husband and I took the entire coast highway when looking for a place to move. The jetty cats were a major draw to us. It was a look inside the town and how animal friendly it is. We took company to see the houses and a quick glimpse of a cat. Who owns the jetty???

Group working to bring fireworks back to Brookings
After a two-year hiatus, the community of Brookings and Harbor can expect to see, hear and feel the love this 4th of July. At least, if one local citizen has his way. Recently, Henry Johnson, a Harbor resident, announced he had formed a small group of citizens focused on returning the Brookings-Harbor Fireworks Show to Sporthaven Beach. His group has selected “Love Your 4th" as their theme and has kicked off a tiered fundraising campaign through emails, Facebook, a website donation link, radio interviews, business sponsorships and even coin jars at some local businesses. “I am really excited about bringing back the fireworks to our town” stated Johnson. “In fact, I have already had several great local businesses step up to the table for our community.” These businesses, called “Foundation Sponsors” include Bret and Marie Curtis with REMAX Coast & Country; South Coast Lumber Co. and Pacific Wood Laminates; Lucky 7 Hotel & Casino and The Beachfront Inn. Devin Jacot, director of marketing for Lucky 7, when asked about the sponsorship said, “Lucky 7 Casino & Hotel is honored to help support an important community event for both our friends and neighbors and the local tourism economy.” Nick Bonkoski, general manager for the Beachfront Inn echoed those same sentiments, saying that he and the hotel were proud to be a sponsor so that they can help “bring our community together to celebrate our freedoms.” There’s still a great need for additional sponsors adds Johnson. “We want to make sure the fireworks
can continue to be funded for 2022 and beyond. We have two sponsorship levels set up. The $500 Liberty Bell, and the $250 Friend of the 4th sponsorship both offer different tiers of benefits for businesses or individuals. Anyone interested in purchasing a sponsorship can go directly to LoveCurryCounty.com and download the Sponsorship Packet. Of course, anyone can donate any amount they wish.” On Saturday, February 19, from 11 a.m.-3 p.m., the Friends of the 4th will be at the grocery entrance of Fred Meyers accepting donations for those wishing to stop by and lend their support. Johnson’s group has partnered with the City of Brookings, too. “The city has been great. They see the benefit of having this event in our community and have agreed to help support the fireworks show with accounting and by hosting our online fundraising collection link. Everyone can rest easy knowing their money is safe and only going to the fireworks. Plus, it’s a tax deduction.” Janell Howard, city manager for the city of Brookings, affirmed that the city has agreed to act as an administrator for the Friends of the 4th group’s finances. The city has also agreed to help sponsor the fireworks show by using some of the city’s Transient Lodging Funds. This money is gathered through the local transient occupancy tax and earmarked for use on projects or infrastructure that helps to boost tourism in the area. Travel Curry Coast, the tourism and promotions arm of Curry County has also lent their financial support. “This is yet another great example of support for our community driven by the passion of our citizens.” said Leslie Wilkinson, chair of the Tourism and Promotions Committee. You can find out more by visiting LoveCurryCounty. com. Meanwhile, donations can be made on the website or their collection jars. Johnson asks that if you are interested in being a title sponsor, or if you have any questions, that you reach out to him at LoveYour4th@ gmail.com. Henry Johnson Brookings

Guest Column
Our border with Mexico teems with contradictions By Laura Pritchett This time last year, I was doing a legal “water drop” on public land close to our border with Mexico, visiting as an unofficial and self-funded reporter to learn more about this local effort. What I found is that volunteers here are the unsung, unseen heroes doing the real work of humanitarian aid — and who, by the very nature of what they do, often prefer to remain silent. We hiked in a remote region of southern Arizona on Bureau of Land Management land, all of us weighted down with backpacks filled with water, and equally weighted with the sorrow of the reality here. More people die in this region than in any other place along the border. The UN agency International Organization for Migration reported that 650 deaths occurred border-wide in 2021, making it the deadliest year they’ve ever recorded. Nothing indicates that 2022 is going to be any better. We placed gallon jugs of water under a plastic tub held down with rocks, and when I stood up, feeling lighter, I still felt weighted by the contradictions of this place. Sure, I know: Living in contradiction and the ability to hold opposing thoughts and emotions simultaneously is a hallmark of maturity, but still, sometimes the contradictions are so extreme that the brain shorts out. Cases in point: Nearby, there’s the hyper-ugly Barry M Goldwater Range, used for bombing practice, and the hyper-beauty of the nearby Organ Pipe National Monument. There’s the beauty and silence of the desert, despite the roar of military fighter jets above. There’s the nearby artsy, colorful town of Ajo, flanked by an enormous open pit copper mine, tailings pile looming alongside. There are the beautiful skeletons of saguaros in the desert, and the very-not-beautiful skeletons of humans. An area of such diverse life. An area of such death. And perhaps the most surreal contradiction of all: The assault on basic human kindness. How did we get to a place where offering shelter or a ride is a crime? A federal crime, with a prison sentence no less? A friend told a story in which she came across a young man on foot on a borderlands back road, and could not drive him to a medical facility, despite his request for her to do so, because she knew she could be arrested for transporting an illegal immigrant. She was already on the Border Patrol’s radar. She could give him water and food and a blanket—legal—but could not give him the ride he asked for— illegal. “You can’t imagine what that’s like,” she said. “To look into another human’s eyes and say, ‘No, I can’t help you.’” There were tears in her eyes—she had, perhaps, left this man to die, but if she had
Laura Pritchett allowed him in her car, she could have ended up in prison and jeopardized her other work helping migrants, which might result in other lost lives. My head hurt. My heart hurt. This place felt overwhelming. So are the related questions: Was I providing humanitarian aid? Or littering? Should I spend my time doing this small physical act? Or working to elect better politicians? Should I focus on this place so far from my home, or stay local? Why is this crisis on the border so ignored? Why do North Americans seem willing to support refugees from other countries—which I applaud—yet seem so resistant to helping those closest to us, who are also fleeing serious violence, political persecution, drought and hurricanes? Then there are the related issues: aquifers drained near the border wall, wildlife migrations interrupted, the Tohono O’odham peoples split apart, with relatives on the U.S. side not easily able to visit relatives in Mexico as they have since time immemorial. Such a clearly bad situation on so many levels. As I walked back to an old Subaru, my pack much lighter now, my shoulders still felt the weight. I wondered if anyone was watching me—waiting for me to be gone. Waiting for a simple, clear, uncomplicated moment to continue a journey. Laura Pritchett is a contributor to Writers on the Range, writersontherange.org, a nonprofit dedicated to airing Western issues. Her novel Red Lightning is based on human rights issues at the border. She directs a master’s program in nature writing at Western Colorado University. www. laurapritchett.com

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the
outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 916-939-0772 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this internet website http://www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-20-881564-JB. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 916-939- 0772, or visit this internet website http:// www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA20- 881564-JB to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein.

After that 1989 house fire that claimed his family home, a man the family had known as “Fred the hay guy” presented the White family with an envelope full of cash and said, “You need this more than I do.” “That’s Community,” said Chief White. By “saying your dreams,” a person makes his friends, neighbors and acquaintances aware of how to help a person develop while helping remove barriers, clearing the way for a person to achieve things that would be too complex for any person to achieve on their own. This advice shows up everywhere in the police department office in Gold Beach. While waiting for White to free-up for this interview, “momma bear” and office manager Gail Whitmore, realizing the interview was about White as a person, started rapid-fire talking about his character, his love of community and office-life, giving examples through bursts of laughter, finishing by almost shouting that White is “SO PRO-PUBLIC!” The meeting with White was a scheduled 30 minutes that lasted three times that, without a single break in the flow of life revelations and laughing. White has lived his “pro-public” life by saying his dreams to people who helped him develop into a mortal version of a super-hero while inspiring other people who want to make a positive difference in other people’s lives. Chief White is retooling what many think is just about arresting the bad guys into also facilitating profound positive change for the community.

get to him. Jordan White’s efforts got a helicopter to the scene and made the rescue. Because no good deed goes unpunished, someone decided it was their duty to go after the rescue crew for practicing medicine in Idaho without a license. The details were eventually worked out. White’s “public/private philanthropic helicopter rescue program” has been in operation since 2012 across both Montana and Idaho – the first of its kind anywhere. A citizen, businessperson and public servant does one of two things: either “makes things better or makes things worse,” said White. On a life dedicated to public service he said, “We don’t get to just quit.” In his off-time, White is developing five acres near downtown Gold Beach in an effort to solve the housing problem of there being too little inventory to suit the needs of the local population. There are four houses already built with another four houses slated to start construction just as soon as the seasons allow. “Say your dreams,” says Chief White. This is advice he gives to the children of Gold Beach when given the opportunity to speak to them during public school events. He has lived this credo his entire life. His interests in public service came directly from his interactions with motivated and inspired public service volunteers and professionals, like his substitute teacher and the crewman on the life-flight. When he was the one on the gurney, he met people who showed him a path forward in life that has formed his worldview.

Oregon State research uncovers key insight for restoration of globally important kelp forests and sea otters,” Randell said. “More and more kelp forests are transitioning into what are known as ‘urchin barrens,’ an alternative arrangement of the ecosystem with dramatically fewer species, including species of recreational, commercial and conservation interest.” Kelp are a foundation species that occupy nearly 50% of the world’s marine ecoregions. They especially thrive in cold water, where they form large aquatic forests that provide essential habitat, food and refuge for many species. Their sensitivity to certain growing conditions means climate change and a warming ocean are particularly problematic for them. Kelp are often harvested for use in products ranging from toothpaste and shampoos to puddings and cakes, and they also help support nutrient cycling, shoreline protection and commercial fisheries such as rockfish. Economists place kelp’s value in the range of billions of dollars annually. Looking for a connection between seafloor structure and kelp forest health, Randell and collaborators at Oregon State and the U.S. Geological Survey Western Ecological Research Center looked at decades of data from subtidal monitoring around San Nicolas Island. The island is the farthest offshore of
By STEVE LUNDEBERG Guest Article
Restoration efforts for kelp forests may be most effective in areas where the bedrock seafloor is highly contoured, research by Oregon State University suggests. The findings, published today in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, are important because kelp, large algae with massive ecological and economic importance around the world, are under siege from environmental change and overgrazing by urchins. The study, led by recent graduate Zachary Randell when he was an Oregon State doctoral student, shows that kelp forests in areas with ocean floor ruggedness – scientifically termed substrate complexity or surface rugosity – tend toward stability. There were urchins in kelp forests growing in areas of high substrate complexity, but those urchins did not cause widespread destruction of kelp forests. One hypothesis is that substrate complexity retains “drift algae” – detached pieces of kelp and other algae – which urchins prefer to eat over live kelp, Randell said. “Kelp forests are declining worldwide due to different combinations of environmental change and lower numbers of the predators that control urchins, like sea stars, cod
the Channel Islands off the Southern California coast, and the data came from nearly 40 years of biannual surveys by scientific SCUBA divers. The research group that also included OSU’s Mark Novak and the USGS’s Michael Kenner, Joseph Tomoleoni and Julie Yee is the first to demonstrate a link between substrate complexity and kelp forest dynamics, Randell said. The scientists found that relatively flat seafloor locations showed abrupt transitions between kelp forests and urchin barrens, and from urchin barrens to kelp forests. “But sites with a lot of physical structure along the seafloor showed resilience – the forested state was able to persist, even when similarly disturbed compared to the flat locations,” Randell said. “The seafloor connection needs further study given recent kelp declines and a push for restoration efforts like outplanting or urchin removal. Understanding the factors behind tipping points and switches between states, which many types of ecosystems are subject to, is key to effective management.” The research suggests restoration efforts could target areas with abundant substrate complexity to create “hotspots of resilience,” Randell said. Where complexity doesn’t exist naturally, it could be manufactured – for

Kelp forests have been declining for a number of years, but research by Oregon State University could help return to the forests to healthy status. example, via artificial reefs – he added. “Those artificial reefs could also be the focus of outplanting recovery efforts of sea urchin predators, such as the captive rearing and release of sea stars,” he said. “The reefs could be constructed as optimal environments for urchin predators and also for urchins and the drift algae that urchins eat.” Another interesting component of the findings, Randell noted, is that

urchin density in a healthy kelp forest was often similar to that of an urchin barren; thus the animal that often gets a bad rap as a destroyer of kelp forests may actually be just one piece in a much larger puzzle, he said. “The common practice of culling urchins will decrease grazing rates only in the short term and won’t by itself bring about kelp forest stability,” Randell said. “Urchin removal is likely to be most effective

OSU research suggests Forest Service lands not the main source of wildfires affecting communities By STEVE LUNDEBERG Guest Article
Research led by Oregon State University shows that fires are more likely to burn their way into national forests than out of them. The findings contradict the common narrative of a destructive wildfire igniting on remote public land before spreading to threaten communities, said Chris Dunn of the OSU College of Forestry. The study, which looked at more than 22,000 fires, found that those crossing jurisdictional boundaries are primarily caused by people on private property. It also showed that ignitions on Forest Service lands accounted for fewer than 25% of the most destructive wildfires – ones that resulted in the loss of more than 50 structures. “In the old framing, public agencies bear the primary responsibility for managing and mitigating cross-boundary fire risk and protecting our communities, with their efforts focused on prevention, fuel reduction and suppression,” Dunn said. “This has been the dominant management approach of years past, which is failing us.” The findings, published today in Nature Scientific Reports, follow by a few weeks the Forest Service’s release of a new 10-year fire strategy, Confronting the Wildfire Crisis. The strategy aims for a change in paradigm within the agency, Dunn said. “We are long overdue for policies and actions that support a paradigm shift,” he said. Scientists including Dunn and OSU’s Will Downing investigated 27 years of fires that crossed
jurisdictional boundaries. The collaboration also included scientists from Colorado State University and the Forest Service’s Rocky Mountain Research Station. Cross-boundary fires consumed just over 17 million acres during the study period of 1992 to 2019, and about half of the burned area was Forest Service land. The study area covered almost 141 million acres across 11 states and included 74 national forests. Of all ignitions that crossed jurisdictional boundaries, a little more than 60% originated on private property, and 28% ignited on national forests. Most of the fires started due to human activity. “The Forest Service’s new strategy for the wildfire crisis leads with a focus on thinning public lands to prevent wildfire intrusion into communities, which is not fully supported by our work, or the work of many other scientists, as the best way to mitigate community risk,” Dunn said. “A substantial portion of the wildfire problem is a community destruction problem,” added Michael Caggiano of Colorado State. “The Forest Service can contribute to an advisory or facilitation role to address the home ignition zone, including fire resistant design and zoning, and fuels management on private lands, but states, local government and homeowners are better positioned than the USFS to manage those components of wildfire risk.” A paradigm shift that could mitigate wildfire risk would begin with the recognition that the significant wildfires occurring in western states is a fire
management challenge with a fire management solution, not a forest management problem with a forest management solution, Dunn said. “The only way we are going to address the wildfire problem on large public lands at the scale of the challenge is through the effective and efficient management of wildfires over the long run,” he said. Dunn said that means allowing some fires or portions of fires to burn to provide risk reduction and ecological benefits, identifying and preparing locations where suppression is likely to be effective, and developing strategies to rapidly distribute resources to where they are most needed and can do the

most good. “Our research has significant potential to inform and guide development of effective cross-boundary risk mitigation strategies, including identifying where and how work on the ground can be most effective,” he said. “The main source of our communities’ exposure to wildfire risk is clearly not our national forests.” The study showed that in many cases, national forests were a net receiver of cross-boundary wildfire rather than a source, and that those fires tend to happen in areas with higher densities of roads and people. Dunn credits the Forest Service for accepting the modern realities of wildfire and for embracing Get strong, fast Wi-Fi to work and play throughout your home.^

those homes at greatest risk to mitigate at the home ignition zone and also addresses landscape resilience and improved wildfire response. Dunn calls it “the type of comprehensive policy we need to address the multitude of impacts wildfires have on communities, ecosystems, industry, etc. It recognizes that the Forest Service is neither the sole source of the problem nor the sole solution to the problem, but rather one of many pieces to a paradigm shift society needs to make.” Matthew Thompson and Karen Short of the Rocky Mountain Research Station also took part in the cross-boundary fire study, which was partially funded by the Forest Service.

collaborative governance and cross-boundary partnerships. He added that managing fire in multijurisdictional landscapes has become a centerpiece of wildfire strategic planning and that evidence suggests fire transmission across boundaries will continue to increase. “As the Forest Service’s strategy moves forward, we think there could be opportunities to learn from what their state partners are doing, such as the more comprehensive policies passed in Oregon in 2021,” he said. “Oregon’s omnibus wildfire bill is a science-driven approach that recognizes the shared responsibility we all have in adapting to the fire environment.” The legislation requires

Low-carbon cement approved for California highway projects By STEVE LUNDEBERG Guest Article
Caltrans has approved the use of low-carbon cement following testing by the Oregon State University College of Engineering. Caltrans is the agency responsible for more than 50,000 miles of highways and freeways in California, The use of portland limestone cement, or PLC, will help reduce the carbon footprint of California’s transportation system by as much as 10% annually compared to ordinary portland cement, according to the trnaportation agency. PLC has a higher percentage of limestone, which results in the carbon savings. Portland cement, developed in England in the early 1800s, is the most common type of binder used in concrete. According to Caltrans, in 2017 alone, the agency used 325,000 tons of cement to upgrade the California highway system. Shifting to low-carbon cement can potentially reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 28,000 tons a year – the amount produced by 6,000 cars. The PLC approval was based on Caltrans-funded research by Oregon State University's (OSU) Jason Weiss, professor of civil and construction engineering and the Miles Lowell and Margaret Watt Edwards Distinguished Chair in Engineering.

The research concluded that PLC will work just as well as portland cement for Caltrans projects, while being more climate friendly and costing a bit less. Globally, the production of portland cement is estimated to be responsible for as much as 8% of the carbon released into the Earth’s atmosphere. “Cement accounts for such a high level of emissions because of how extensively it’s used around the world,” Weiss said. “We use 10 times more concrete than any other building material, and it is becoming more and more urgent in the face of Courtesy photo from OSU climate change that we reduce Researchers said the use of portland the carbon footprint of infralimestone cement, or PLC, will help restructure materials.” duce the carbon footprint of California’s Weiss explains that cement is usually produced by mining, transportation system by as much as 10% annually. grinding and heating clay and limestone in industrial kilns to “Our goal is always to produce temperatures as high as 2,820 better, more sustainable and londegrees Fahrenheit.

Andrew Moses, 79, of Shady Cove, Oregon, passed away on January 31, 2022 of natural causes. Andrew was born on June 18, 1942 to John and Nancy Moses in Pasadena California. He met Lois Michelle Lyon, his future wife while working at County Hospital in Sacramento, California. They wed November 29, 1964 in Sacramento, California. In October of 1976 he moved his family to Santa Cruz where he and his wife raised their three daughters. He worked for the Santa Cruz County Office of Education. He worked there for 25 years until retirement. He and his wife then moved to Gold Beach, Oregon.

Deputies recover stolen property, make arrests On February 9, Curry County Sheriff’s deputies assisted by Curry County Code Enforcement officers and the Brookings Police Department, served a search warrant on property located at 17790 Old County Road in Brookings, owned by 58-year-old Todd McClosky. The search warrant was in connection with an ongoing investigation of theft of approximately $10,000 worth of metal roof material that had been stolen from property in the Cedar Valley area of Gold Beach. The material that had been taken had been seen recently at the old Ophir School where 52--year-old Steve Barrett and 43-yearold Latisha Crosser have been living for several years. Deputies had information that Barrett and Crosser moved to McCloskey property and took the metal roof material with them. Barrett also had two warrants for his arrest, and he had been actively hiding from law enforcement. During the service of the search warrant on McClosky’s property authorized by a Circuit Court judge, several people living on the property were detained including the property owner. Barrett was located
on the property and arrested on the two warrants. After a several hour search of McClosky’s property, deputies located the stolen metal roofing material in a small trailer hidden down and old cat road. In that same hidden area, deputies also located a 2005 Ford F-350 truck that had been covered with brush to conceal it. The truck had been reported stolen a year earlier from the JD Auto Sales in Portland. A tow truck responded and was able to recover the stolen vehicle. Barrett was transported to the Curry County Jail on the two warrants for his arrest and charged with theft in the first degree for
