Merkley: Federal spending bill will benefit Oregon By DAVID RUPKALVIS The World

Millions of dollars will soon be headed to Oregon as Congress closes in on passing an omnibus spending bill to fund the federal government through September. Sen. Jeff Merkley discussed the spending bill during a conference call with media Thursday, saying the bill will help communities throughout the state. "We continue to fund the government," he said. "We now have the spending bill. This takes us from continuing the Trump budgets to transitioning to the first Biden budgets." Merkley said one thing he was excited about was a new element called Community Initiative Projects. The CIPs basically replaced earmarks and are a way for lawmakers to fund projects in their home states and districts. "I've had the privilege of traveling throughout the state, gathering information about what people care about," Merkley said. "Both in terms of the normal spending and a new category, community initiative projects." Merkley said one percent of funding was set aside in many categories for the CIPs, and lawmakers can get them secured for their states. "We were able to secure about 140 projects through the Senate bill which has survived into the omnibus," Merkley said. "There's a whole lot of community projects in this bill." Merkley focused on four key areas when discussing the omnibus bill - drought, forest health and firefighting, economic issues and housing. For drought, Merkley said the budget has tens of millions of dollars set aside to deal with drought nationwide, much of it in western states. "We've been suffering from year after year of drought," the senator said. "This is a very

big deal having secured money to address that issue." When it comes to forest health and fire issues, Oregon is one state that needs a lot of help, Merkley said. "People are very aware of the longer, intense fire season," he said. "I'll never forget driving 600 miles and never getting out the smoke and seeing the remains of the towns that have been burned." One area Merkley said he was excited about was the Collaborative Forest Landscape Restoration Program that brings all agencies together to help forests. Merkley said funding for the program was doubled in this budget. "The bill provides a lot of funding for wildfire suppression, about $3.8 billion," Merkley said. It also increases funding for firefighter pay, setting a minimum pay of $15 an hour. The spending bill also increases funding for the removal of hazardous fuels, with the combined efforts of the spending bill and the recent infrastructure bill topping $1 billion. "That was a huge change for how much support there is for this challenge of forest management," Merkley said. In the economic area, Merkley highlighted funding for a wood innovation grant. The grant will accelerate a program between Oregon State and the University of Oregon to study mass timber, with the goal of building large structures out of wood rather than concrete and steel. Merkley said the move is beneficial to the environment and could be great for Oregon. The senator also highlighted funding for dredging and harbor maintenance throughout the state.

Sen. Jeff Merkley talks to constituents in a town hall in Coos County. Merkley said the omnibus spending bill that is expected to be approved in Congress will bring millions of dollars back to Oregon.

"I really pushed the idea of small ports because we have so many smaller ports that have to be dredged regularly," he said. "This funding was not included in the president's budget, but I fought to restore it to the budget." Merkley said the omnibus bill went to the House, which split it into two parts. The biggest was the government funding, while a smaller portion dedicated to preparing for the next COVID wave was split into a separate bill. The spending element was passed by the House Wednesday, and Merkley said the Senate would vote on it within several days. "We may get this bill passed today or we might not," Merkley said Thursday. "Then next week, we will complete work and then More Merkley, Page A9

Soaring pump prices, no end in sight By JEREMY C. RUARK Country Media

From the coast to the metro areas and into Central and Eastern Oregon, we are paying record high prices for gasoline, according to the Oregon/Idaho American Automobile Association (AAA). A quick price survey finds unleaded regular at $4.89 for the high in Tillamook and Coos Bay, $4.49 in Lincoln City and $4.39 a gallon in Newport as of March 9. Russia’s unprovoked and violent invasion of Ukraine has sent crude oil prices skyrocketing above $120 per barrel (bbl), the highest price since July 2008, according to the Oregon/Idaho AAA. The soaring oil prices have sent gas prices to new record highs, breaking records set in 2008. All 50 states are seeing dramatic increases in gas prices. For the week, the national average for regular jumps 54 cents to $4.17 a gallon. The Oregon average shoots up 55 cents to $4.59. These prices eclipse the old record highs set in 2008 when the national average peaked at $4.11

The average price in Oregon reached $4.59 for a gallon of unleaded regular gasoline on March 8. on July 17, and the Oregon average peaked at $4.29 on July 3. President Biden on Tuesday, March 8, announced a U.S. ban on Russian oil imports. Biden said the move has strong bipartisan support in Congress as Americans rally to support

the Ukrainian people, and that this and other sanctions have wreaked havoc on the Russian economy. But Biden cautioned that there will be costs as well here in the U.S., including even higher gas prices which hurt American families.

The United Kingdom also announced it will phase out Russian oil imports by the end of the year. The European Union has also outlined a plan to stop using Russian energy. About 8% of oil used in the More Gas, Page A8

Three candidates file for county commission seat By DAVID RUPKALVIS The Pilot

A former county commissioner, Brookings city councilor and a homeless activist will face off for an open seat on the Curry County Board of Commissioners. With the filing date for county elections passed, the race for position 1 county commissioner will be the only locally contested race on the ballot. With Commissioner Chris Paasch not running for re-election, the three well-known contestants will face off in a race likely to gather a lot of attention. The field will include former Commissioner George Rhodes, Brookings Councilman Brad Alcorn and Beth Barker-Hidalgo, the executive director of the Curry County Homeless Coalition. A fourth candidate, Ed Halcumb, filed for the seat, but he withdrew his candidacy, saying “My wife said I can’t! Ha ha.” The only other county race on the ballot will be for county treasurer, where incumbent David Barnes will be running unopposed. A second candidate, Elizabeth Nekton, also filed but withdrew her candidacy. Barnes is a long-time financial expert who was appointed as treasurer in 2021. His appointment made him the third treasurer in three weeks, and his appointment settled the position. The big race in Curry County will likely be the Position 1 contest for commissioner. All three contestants have strong support in different areas of the county. Rhodes has the element of experience on his side, having served as commissioner from 2009 to 2012. In that position, he has been through the Oregon County College. Hailing from Brookings, Rhodes has also owned his own business for 30 years. Alcorn also comes from Brookings and spent his career in public service as a police officer, retiring after 34 years as an officer and three years as a reserve sheriff’s deputy. Alcorn is a current member of the Brookings City Council and served as a volunteer on the county’s budget committee. Barker-Hidalgo comes from Gold Beach and has had a varied career in healthcare and nonprofit work. The current executive director of the Curry County Homeless Coalition, Barker-Hidalgo has also worked with Oregon Coast Community Action, Curry Community Health and more. She is a commissioner on the Coos Curry Public Housing Authority and served on the Ambulance Service Area Committee. Curry County voters will also have a say on whether to continue the Sixes Rural Fire Protection local option levy. The tax of $1.375 per $1,000 of assessed value will continue an existing tax. Without approval, the fire district will not have the funds to continue operation after 2022, which will likely increase insurance rates for housing and businesses. A second tax levy to fund fire equipment in Gold Beach will also be on the ballot. The primary election will be held May 17. If no candidate in the Position 1 commissioner race receives more than 50 percent of the vote, the top two vote getters will advance to the November general election.

Obituaries Joann Spickler Bates

Richard Wayne Vosburg

January 25,1930-February 20,2022

March 29, 1951 to March 14, 2022

Richard Vosburg, also known as Rick, passed away March 14th, 2022. He was a loving husband, father, brother, son, and friend. Rick was born and raised in French Camp, CA, Rick belonged to the second largest family in town with his 8 brothers and sisters. He was raised on a dead-end road along the banks of the San Joaquin River and had dozens of stories of adventures that ranged from tree forts to making rubber band guns and playing cops and robbers with his siblings. His oldest sister, Nancy, says that Rick was always the happy brother, expressing humor and giggles in every situation. Rick was a great fan of NASCAR. His favorite driver was whoever happened to be winning that day. He loved stargazing with his two telescopes and whomever he could lure out to the side pasture to gaze with. He always said a T-shirt wasn’t worth having unless it had a pocket and his favorite color was plaid. Rick served in the US Marine Corps during the Vietnam era and lived the motto, “Once a Marine, Always a Marine.” Rick was so proud when his son followed him into that branch of the armed forces. Rick loved his wife Cindy from

the moment he saw her. Rick used to tease that he was hit by Cupid’s arrow at first sight. He was 22 and she was 16. Within a year they married, to spend the next 47 years as life partners. Rick cherished his Cindy and supported her in all things from career choices to Christmas lights. While not an avid animal lover himself, Rick took in and helped care for dozens if not hundreds of pets during their years together. Cindy says “Rick doesn’t love animals, but he loves me.” She also says that Rick always kept her laughing and was the greatest man on Earth. Rick was a devoted father to his two children, Brandy and Richard. He gave them a childhood of hubcap hunting, hikes at Knight’s Ferry, tire swings, tree houses, stargazing, and a lifetime of laughter. Rick is preceded in death by his mother, Angela Vosburg (née Lagasse), father, Milford Vosburg, brothers Robert, David, and Christopher Vosburg, sister Gloria Vosburg, and brother-in-law Manuel Perez. Rick is survived by his loving wife, Cindy Vosburg, daughter Brandy Moon (Garrett), son Richard Vosburg (Holly), sister Nancy Smith (Bill), brother Ralph Vosburg, brother James

Benham named December Service Excellence Superstar of the Month Curry Health Network’s Chief Executive Officer Ginny Williams was thrilled to award Administrative Assistant Codi Benham with the organizations Service Excellence Superstar of the Month award for December 2021. Benham joined CHN in December of 2017 when she began working in the materials management department, then transitioned to a supportive position in administration in 2018. She was nominated by a co-worker who emphasized her willingness to step in whenever help is needed. “Administration learned, with less than 24 hours’ notice, that a staff member who was scheduled to pick

up holiday fudge gifts for the entire organization was unable to do so. Codi willingly agreed to drive from Gold Beach to Brookings – without thinking twice!” the nomination read. During the award ceremony, the CEO thanked Benham for going above and beyond in demonstrating CHN’s shared value of teamwork. Others shared similar stories about Codi, including her supervisor that noted in each of Codi’s annual performance reviews, it is always noted that the phrase “that’s not my job” is not in Codi’s vocabulary. “Codi always is the epitome of stellar service excellence, to patients and to her co-workers,” she said. Benham has also absorbed duties

that had previously been handled by other departments or staff when it became problematic for them to continue due to time or staffing limitations. For example, she has taken on opening and distributing all CHN incoming mail and stamping all outgoing mail. She job-shared the accounts payable position when a staff member resigned and continues to assist the finance department as she is able. Benham has recently taken on the monumental task of producing the CHN monthly staff newsletter, and with her keen eye, interest and ongoing education in graphic design, has elevated the newsletter to a level of professionalism not before seen.

An Oregon community college basketball coach has been arrested and lodged in the Douglas County Jail on charges relating to using a child in display of sexually explicit conduct. In early January of 2022, the Douglas County Sheriff's Office opened a criminal investigation into the potential criminal activities of 35-year-old Nathan "Nate" Ezell Bowie of Portland. Bowie is the head coach for the Mt. Hood Community College men's basketball team. Additionally, Bowie travels in and out of the state of Oregon hosting basketball camps and clinics. In November 2021, Bowie participated in a basketball clinic at Glide High School. During the clinic at Glide, Bowie encouraged the female athletes to follow him on his social media account. He later used his connection with at least one minor female from that camp to strike up a social media relationship. Bowie began soliciting

intimate images and videos from the juvenile and at one point planned to meet with her for the purpose of having a sexual encounter while in Douglas County representing Mt. Hood Community College. Detectives executed search warrants which revealed evidence of criminal acts involving the minor female. On Thursday, March 10, detectives contacted Bowie and took him into custody on two counts of using a child in display of sexually graphic content and one count of online sexual corruption of a minor in the first degree. Detectives believe Bowie may have employed similar techniques with other minors in his travels within and out of Oregon. Parents are encouraged to speak with their children about online safety practices. If anyone believes they or their child may have had similar contact with Bowie, they are encouraged to contact their local law enforcement agency.

CURRY COASTAL PILOT

Guest Column

A tale of two rural Western counties By Dave Marston Why would rural Delta County, Colorado, say no to a solar farm that would enrich the county by $13 million over 15 years, at roughly the same time neighboring Montrose County said yes to a solar farm that might power nothing but the energy-draining cryptocurrency industry? In early March, Delta County commissioners voted 2-1 to deny a 472-acre solar array built by Guzman Energy, a move that would help shift the local rural electric cooperative, Delta-Montrose Electric Association, (DMEA) to clean energy. Many locals found the no vote not only mystifying but also infuriating. Unlike Guzman Energy, which financed DMEA’s exit from its former power supplier, Tri State Generation and Transmission, the business called Co Mine 1 Landco LLC in Montrose is secretive, though crypto mining, aka validating cryptocurrency transactions, is the likely use, according to the Colorado Sun. The Sun points out that the company’s vagueness failed to trouble the Montrose County Planning Commission, which recently approved CO Mine 1 Landco LLC’s land-use change. As for Guzman’s failure in Delta County, “The problem is some (people) got political, just because it was solar,” says Delta County Commissioner Don Suppes, the sole yes vote. “We’re sending the wrong message that we don’t want people investing in Delta County,” he says. Delta County is culturally split. Up valley, in the North Fork of the Gunnison Valley, residents support solar power and there is a thriving solar installation school, Solar Energy International, in the town of Paonia. Down valley is a more conservative, row-cropping, and family-values community. The County votes 70 percent Republican. But the consensus, at least until now, was that the electrical co-op was a local champion, serving both Delta and Montrose with electrical power and fast Internet. Producing electrical power from home is the holy grail of the energy transition, so Guzman’s plans seemed tailored to Delta County, a right to farm community. Sheep could graze among the solar panels, says Suppes, and “it was still grazing — just as critical as row crops.” How did these two counties, neighbors with similar geography, come to hold such starkly different worldviews? You could say that Montrose County started with a deprived childhood. When white families forced out the Indigenous tribes and moved into Western Colorado in the late 1800s, Delta County prospered. Some came equipped, backed by Eastern money, with nothing more than pick, shovel, or if lucky -- mule scrapers. They dug miles of ditches below the West Elk Mountain range that brought water down for imported fruit trees. Coal in those same mountains

was found early and mined. Meanwhile, Montrose was left in their dust. No pick or shovel could divert water that simply did not exist in the barren Uncompahgre Valley. Montrose land speculators’ lobbying efforts paid off in 1909, when the Bureau of Reclamation finished the Gunnison Tunnel, sending 500,000 acrefeet of Gunnison River water annually to Montrose County, turning the valley into an agricultural force. Right now, the two counties are neck and neck based on household income, though Montrose County is better at creating jobs. Its major town, Montrose, bustles with outdoor equipment businesses and an airport favored by the resort town of Telluride. Delta County, in its North Fork, boasts vineyards and organic agriculture, a sizable number of internet workers, and a growing summer tourist trade. But Delta County still chases Montrose when it comes to economic growth. “Delta has a long history of turning stuff away that ends up in Montrose,” says Suppes, pointing out that in 1973, Russell Stover Candies wanted to build its factory (closed in 2020), in Delta but was turned down, so chose Montrose. In the early 1980s, Louisiana-Pacific (LP) looked in the Delta-Montrose area for an oriented strand board plant (OSB) location. Manufacturing OSB — a substitute for plywood — involves brewing toxic resins with wood chips. LP chose Montrose County, which agreed with the caveat, legend has it, that the giant glue factory situate far from downtown Montrose. The Delta-Montrose County line, where the plant landed, is just seven miles from the town of Delta compared to 14 miles from Montrose. Like it or not, Delta got the criminally polluting factory, now closed. The former LP plant now hosts the crypto mine. In Delta County, Guzman is certain to keep looking for a home for its solar farm, and Commissioner Suppes is convinced that now, Delta will say yes. Perhaps this time Delta County can get both the solar plant and the tax revenue.

Letters to the Editor War strategies 1. Talk tough and if that isn’t working, talk even tougher until Putin is quaking in his pants. 2. Hold firm that we’ll admit Ukraine into NATO even if we have no intentions of doing so as a way of showing Putin, we’re strong and we don’t change our minds and even if it means that thousands will die and NATO has no intention of admitting Ukraine, we’re immovable in our position and we can be as stubborn as Putin is. 3. Have our elected representatives publicly threaten Putin with assassination as a way of scaring him into submission. 4. Continue with the strategy of waiting for Putin’s next move as a way of showing that we’ll get mad and react if Putin does something appalling. 5. Call out Putin on the world stage as a bully with nothing to lose as a sure way of getting him to see the error of his ways and abandon his ideas of occupying Ukraine. 6. Refuse to open domestic oil pipelines or extend oil leases as a way of showing Putin that we plan on taking over the world with electric cars. That will scare him. The minute he sees electric charging stations, he’s sure to pull out of Ukraine immediately. 7. Climb into bed with Iran so that Putin understands we are not above sleeping with our enemies. 8. While threatening Putin, be sure that we scare the pants off of China too by warning China that if they mess with us, they’ll get the same treatment.

That’ll show our enemies! 9. Task Kamala Harris with the job of examining the root causes of aggression. 10. If all else fails, close all McDonald’s in Russia. Once deprived of Big Macs, Russians will demand that Putin immediately resign. Avery Freauxbischer Brookings I will pay more It is time I support an oil/gas embargo against Russia, and be willing to endure higher gas prices and pursuant inflationary pressures that they might create. It's a sacrifice I'm willing to make to help end the conflict in Ukraine, and to blunt any further aggression by Russia. I also believe this moment provides a unique opportunity to encourage the world to reduce its dependence on fossil fuels from hostile, authoritarian states, and to strengthen U.S. ties with our allies. I support a short-term increase in the production of domestic oil to stop-gap Europe's shortfalls if necessary. More broadly, I support increasing investments and incentives for renewable, clean energy here and abroad. It is time to finally prioritize green energy. This is not only a climate issue, but also a national security and foreign relations issue. Vicki Bradley Brookings

Guest Column A dangerous game of chicken on the Colorado River By Kyle Roerink

Seven Western states and their leaders - all depending on water from the Colorado River remain divided. Split into basins by an imaginary border at Lees Ferry, Arizona, each state can share blame for the rapid depletion of reservoirs that once held over four years’ flow of the Colorado River. But now, Lake Powell and Lake Mead edge closer to empty. With water savings gone, the Lower Basin has been trying to cope, though the Upper Basin carries on business as usual. Meanwhile, 40 millions Ameri-

cans depend on flows from this over-diverted river. So far, leaders in the Upper Basin states of Colorado, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming appear to be hoping that their counterparts will agree to use less water. This is hardly a useful strategy and seems a lot like a dangerous game of chicken. It is the Lower Basin states of Arizona, Nevada and California that have taken the brunt of low flows. Thanks to a series of agreements between 2007 and 2021, by the end of this year the three states will curtail their river use by more than 1 million acre-feet

--325 billion gallons. But it’s likely these cuts won’t change much. More Colorado River Page A10

Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency and consists of representatives from American Red Cross; Catholic Charities, USA; National Council of the Churches of Christ in the USA; The Jewish Federations of North America, The Salvation Army; and, United Way Worldwide. The Board is charged to distribute funds appropriated by Congress to help expand the capacity of food and shelter programs in high-need areas around the country. A Local Board made up of representatives from local agencies representing emergency services will determine how the funds awarded to Del Norte County are to be distributed among the emergency food and shelter programs run by local service agencies. The Local Board is responsible for selecting agencies to receive these funds and any additional funds made available under these phases of the program. Under the terms of the grant from the National Board, local agencies chosen to receive funds must: 1) be 501(c)3 private non-profits or units of government, 2) be eligible to receive Federal funds, 3) have an accounting system, 4) practice nondiscrimination, 5) have demonstrated the capability to deliver emergency food and/or shelter programs, and 6) if they are a private nonprofit organization, have a voluntary board. Qualifying agencies are urged to apply. Del Norte County EFSP has distributed Emergency Food and Shelter funds previously to Rural Human Services, DORCAS (Seventh Day Adventist Church), Our Daily Bread Ministries, and Pacific Pantry. Qualifying organizations interested in applying for EFSP funds can email Lauren Brawley (lbrawley@dncsc1) for an application or visit the Del Norte Senior Center website at www.delnorteseniorcenter.org.

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.

Third, you must submit a bid, by remitting the funds and affidavit described in Section 2924m(c) of the Civil Code, so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale.

Gas From A1

U.S. last year came from Russia, while about 25% of Europe’s oil is imported from Russia. The U.S. is the largest oil producer in the world. Other top producers are Saudi Arabia and Russia. Last week, the International Energy Agency (IEA) announced a coordinated release of crude oil from its 31-member countries’ strategic reserves, including the U.S., Germany, Canada, South Korea, and Mexico, to help counter the impact of rising crude prices. On Friday, IEA said member states committed to

releasing a total of 61.7 million bbl from their strategic reserves to reassure markets roiled by the fallout from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. This amount—half of which is expected to come from the U.S.—is the largest coordinated release since IEA was founded in 1974. U.S. gasoline demand rose slightly, and total domestic gasoline stocks decreased last week, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA). The increase in gas demand and a reduction in total supply contribute to rising pump prices. But the major driver is rising oil prices. Consumers can expect gas prices to keep climbing as long as crude prices rise.

Quick stats All 50 states and the District of Columbia have significant increases for the week. Virginia (+66 cents) has the largest weekly increase. Hawaii (+15 cents) has the smallest. Oregon (+55 cents) has the 27th-largest increase in the nation. California ($5.44) is the most expensive state in the nation and is the first state to ever have an average above $5 a gallon. There are 28 states and the District of Columbia with an average at or above $4 a gallon. The cheapest gas in the nation is in Oklahoma ($3.72) and Missouri ($3.73). This week no states have averages below $3 a gallon, same as a week ago.

For the 61st week in a row, no state has an average below $2 a gallon. All 50 states and the District of Columbia have higher prices now than a month ago. The national average is 72 cents more and the Oregon average is 65 cents more than a month ago. This is the 33rd– largest monthly increase in the nation. Delaware (+83 cents) has the largest month-over-month increase. Hawaii (+30 cents) has the smallest. All 50 states and the District of Columbia have higher prices now than a year ago, and all have a current average that’s a dollar or higher than a year ago. The national average is $1.40 more and the Oregon average is $1.57

more than a year ago. This is the third-largest yearly increase in the nation. California (+$1.69) has the biggest yearly increase. Nebraska (+$1.04 cents) has the smallest year-over-year increase. California is the most expensive state for the 59th week in a row with Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, and Alaska rounding out the top six. Arizona is 12th. Oregon is fourth for the second week in a row. Like the rest of the country, all seven states have weekly increases: Nevada (+64 cents) has the largest in the region while Hawaii (+15 cents) has the smallest week-over-week increase in the region and the nation.

Career conference for girls to be held April 8, 9 Do you want guidance on how to set and achieve your career goals? Would you like access to professional role models and mentors? Get the resources you need to plan your future through the Soroptimist Dream It, Be It: Career Support for Girls program, which aims to help girls grow to be strong, successful and happy adults. Soroptimist International of Brookings will host a two-day conference for high school sophomores and juniors, where they will learn about career opportunities,

setting and achieving goals and overcoming obstacles to success. The Dream It, Be It event will take place on Friday and Saturday, April 8 and 9, at the Event Center, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The conference will explore the following topics. • Discovering your dreams • Exploring careers • Creating achievable goals • Rising above obstacles • Balancing your stress Because we don’t expect that all girls

will know what they want to do for the rest of their lives and we also know that plans change, the skills developed through the conference can be applied to any goals you identify throughout your education and career. Participants will also have the opportunity to speak with working women and perhaps arrange a mentorship with a woman whose career interests them. In addition to learning important life skills, you will receive a certificate for participating. Soroptimist International of Brookings is part of Soroptimist International of the

Americas, a cause-related philanthropic federation of clubs improving the lives of women and girls through social and economic empowerment. The Brookings Soroptimists join 1,300 Soroptimist clubs in 20 countries and territories that empower women and girls through volunteer projects, such as cash grants for education, hands-on efforts to end domestic violence, career mentoring for girls, women’s health initiatives and many other community-based projects like the Community Baby Shower.

Stand-up comedy coming to Curry County Fairgrounds Ready to kick off spring? The Curry County Fair Board and staff are bringing stand-up comedy back to the Event Center on April 15 and 16. There will be multiple times to catch the show with one show on Friday night at 7 p.m. and two shows on Saturday evening at 6 and 8 p.m. Shows are adult only and not for the feint of heart. Tickets are $15 as a presale price and $20 at the door. Tickets are available at https://comedyrelief. eventbrite.com or by visiting the fairgrounds Office. Sponsorship opportunities and partnerships are available for this and future events. Contact the office for those details.

we can address the COVID preparation bill. It is beyond unacceptable to have us face a new mutation where we are short tests again and short personal protective gear. If COVID goes away, that's OK. If your house doesn't burn down, it doesn't mean we didn't need a fire department ready to protect your home." Out of the $1 trillion budget, Merkley said he is most excited about the CIP portion, which brings federal funding to communities to address local issues. "These really came from community leaders, city leaders, county leaders who said here's the challenges we face, here's what we need," Merkley said. "There's going to be a lot to celebrate for communities that said this is what's really important, we need help with these projects. This is not Congress saying here's what you must do. This is our communities saying here's what we need."

Colorado River Continued From Page A4

Federal data released last month predict that Lake Mead, the largest reservoir in the nation and the Lower Basin’s water saving’s account, will continue to lose water for years to come. Lake Powell, the Upper Basin’s saving’s account, is also vulnerable. But that raises the obvious question: What are Colorado, Wyoming, Utah and New Mexico doing to limit their water use and conserve? The answer is not much. In the Upper Basin’s four states there are no self-imposed curtailments of Colorado River allocations — no blockbuster,

big-city conservation initiatives, and there are no real signs that all leaders are convinced that climate change is not only happening but also a major threat to the region. More discouraging is that in 2016, the interstate collective of Upper Basin officials, known as the Upper Colorado River Commission, officially decided to take more water out of the river. That decision stands today. Some of the largest projects on the Upper Basin’s wish list include the Lake Powell Pipeline, Green River Block Exchange, Wolf Creek Reservoir, and the Fontenelle Dam expansion. These proposed projects would drain billions of gallons from the system, reports the

nonprofit Save the Colorado. Does anyone think that water exists? The Bureau of Reclamation, which manages the Colorado River’s infrastructure, released a report in mid-February that predicts Lake Mead will drop another 30 feet by the end of 2023 –– leaving the reservoir 160 feet lower than in the year 2000. It also predicts more cuts for Nevada and Arizona’s share of the river, as well as for California In the Upper Basin, where the Colorado River begins, no cuts are proposed. And according to a new report from the Utah River’s Council, a non-profit fiscal and water watchdog, most of the Upper Basin States continue to use more than their share of the river, even though drought and aridity

have reduced river flows, While the three Lower Basin states use more water than the drought-stricken Colorado can deliver annually, leaders in Arizona, Nevada and California share a spirit of sacrifice when it comes to limiting water use. From my experience running a nonprofit river-protection group, I know that collaboration toward these efforts represents a resolve to act. The Lower Basin states, for example, are working to fund a water-recycling facility near Los Angeles. The plant would reduce California’s reliance on the Colorado River and give Nevada and Arizona some of that river water in return for their joint funding. Collaborations like this need to start happening in the Upper Basin, but where are the examples?

Water managers in both basins tell folks they are doing their best to deal with the river’s decline, but only the Lower Basin’s actions can be quantified. It’s time for the Upper Basin to blink in this game of chicken and ensure equitable and prudent uses of the river. The lines dividing the states are invisible, but bathtub rings on Lake Powell and Lake Mead are all too visible. Kyle Roerink a contributor to Writers on the Range, writersontherange.org, a nonprofit dedicated to spurring lively conversation about the West. He is the executive director of the Great Basin Water Network, a nonprofit that defends water supplies from undue political and corporate influence in the nation’s two driest states, Nevada and Utah.

Unclaimed Capital Credits Coos-Curry Electric Cooperative wants to return unclaimed money. Who are we looking for? Coos-Curry Electric Cooperative Inc. is looking for members who have unclaimed capital credit checks issued in 2016 and 2017. The CCEC Board of Directors approved the retirement and issuance of those capital credit checks to members who had electric service with CCEC in 1987, 1988 and 1989. The names of members who have unclaimed capital credits will appear in a special insert within the Curry Coastal Pilot newspaper. The insert will be published at least one time in January, February, March, and April 2022. The list also will be posted to our website at www.ccec.coop/capital-credits.

What are capital credits? Capital credits reflect each member’s ownership in the cooperative. Other businesses and utilities return profits to investors and shareholders. Not us. CCEC is a member-owned not-for-profit cooperative, and we return margins or profits as capital credits to members like you. Members invest in CCEC when they buy power. Each year, after all expenses have been paid, any remaining margins are allocated to members as capital credits in proportion to their electric use.

Contact Us Go to www.ccec.coop/capital-credits to see if your name appears on the list, or if you know the address or phone number of a person or business on the list. If you are not the member listed, you must be legally authorized to claim one of these checks, including checks for members that are deceased. A form is available to fill out on the website. Please provide your name, the listed member’s name and telephone number. A member of our team will contact you as soon as possible. For additional questions, contact us at 541-332-3931 or by email at ms@cooscurryelectric.com.

Long look at Hawaiian corals suggests reasons for optimism amid warming seas, ocean acidification By STEVE LUNDEBERG Guest Article

The longest experimental study on corals to date, a 22-month project that replicated current and future ocean conditions, suggests Hawaiian corals can remain resilient as climate change makes seawater warmer and more acidic. Led by Oregon State University postdoctoral researcher Rowan McLachlan, the study is important because understanding the factors behind coral health is crucial to efforts to save the Earth’s embattled reefs, the planet’s largest and most significant structures of biological origin. Findings were published today in Scientific Reports. “The majority of research that has been done investigating the capacity for coral reefs to survive and persist under ocean warming and acidification has been gained from short-term experiments, one-month duration on average, based in indoor laboratories in empty glass tanks,” McLachlan said. “While informative, these studies are limited in their ability to predict how coral will respond in the wild where the environment is much more complex.” Between 2014 and 2017 alone, more than 75% of the planet’s coral reefs experienced bleaching-level heat stress, and 30% suffered mortality-level stress. Bleaching refers to the breakdown of the symbiotic relationship between corals and the algae they rely on for energy. Coral reefs are found in less than 1% of the ocean but are home to nearly one-quarter of all known marine species. Reefs also help regulate the sea’s carbon dioxide levels and are a vital hunting ground that scientists use in the search for new medicines. McLachlan, a doctoral student in the Andréa Grottoli lab at Ohio State University during the study, and collaborators collected samples of the three most common species of Hawaiian corals: Montipora capitata, a branching and plating stony coral; Porites compressa, a branching species also known as finger coral; and Porites lobata, which forms boulder-shaped lobes.

The scientists placed the samples in four different outdoor tanks: a control tank with current ocean conditions; one with more-acidic water (minus 0.2 pH units); one with warmer water (plus 2 degrees Celsius); and one with warmer water that was also more acidic. “We strived to design the experimental tanks to mimic the natural reef environment as closely as possible,” McLachlan said. “Our tanks were outside under natural light and included pumps that simulated natural water flow. They were filled with seawater pumped in directly from a neighboring reef and included sand, rocks, fish, algae, crustaceans and other organisms in addition to corals.” All of that made the study “arguably more realistic and accurate in predicting the outcome of corals in the future under global climate change,” she said. Results suggest that warming oceans will harm coral species: 61% of the coral samples exposed to the warming conditions survived, 31% less than those exposed to current ocean temperatures. The Porites species showed more resilience than M. capitata in the combined warming/acidification treatment. There the survival rates were 71% for P. compressa, 56% for P. lobata and 46% for M. capitata. The ability of the Porites species to withstand rising temperatures and acidification, and their role in reef building, offer hope that some reef ecosystems can persist despite changing ocean conditions, McLachlan said. “Our study found that in the absence of local stressors such as nutrient pollution, overfishing, bottom trawling, physical damage from tourism, etc., at least half of Hawaiian reef corals will be able to survive and persist in up to 22 months exposure to ocean warming and acidification,” McLachlan said. “The results provide hope that if we can mitigate climate change and keep within the targets of the Paris Climate Agreement, coral reefs will persist in some form, albeit with reduced abundance and genotypic diversity.” She added, however, that it remains

unknown how corals will fare if changes in temperature and acidity are more severe than those used in the research. “Our results do offer some hope but the approximately 50% mortality we saw in some species in this study is not a small thing,” McLachlan said. Other co-authors were Grottoli, James

Price, Agustí Muñoz‑Garcia and Noah Weisleder of Ohio State, Stephen Levas of the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, and Christopher Jury and Robert Toonen of the University of Hawaii at Mānoa. The National Science Foundation and the HW Hoover Foundation supported this research.

Deadly fake pills trigger public health warning STAFF REPORT The deaths of two teenagers in Portland from a suspected overdose of fentanyl has prompted the Oregon Poison Control Center at Oregon Health & Sciences University to issue a public health warning about counterfeit, contaminated opioids in Oregon. DANGER These pills may be laced with fentanyl which can be deadly, according to the center. Fentanyl is up to 50 times more potent than heroin. It is odorless, tasteless and colorless. According to the warning, pills meant to mimic oxycodone tablets may contain illicitly manufactured fentanyl or other harmful contaminants. These counterfeit pills may be difficult to distinguish from legitimate prescription drugs and are especially dangerous because of their unknown contents. Fentanyl, a synthetic opioid that is 50 to 100 times stronger than morphine, is used by doctors to treat severe pain. Fentanyl is pressed into pills that are stamped with “M30,” “E7” or other markers to mimic real oxycodone tablets. Unlike prescription pills, the amount of fentanyl may vary from pill to pill — and the amount in a single pill can be deadly for some people. In addition to fentanyl, these pills

may contain a variety of other medicines, including fentanyl analogs, sedatives and anesthetics that may cause overdose. The presence of fentanyl in fake pills is impossible to detect unless it is tested, according to the center alert. PREVENT OPIOID OVERDOSES Only consume pills and other drugs that have been obtained from a pharmacy and have been prescribed to you. These prescriptions should be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor. It is not safe to consume someone else’s prescription drugs, or anything purchased online or on the streets. Pills from these non-prescribed sources may be counterfeit and contain dangerous ingredients like fentanyl. The center also recommends active communication — talk with your teens about the risks of substance use. Discuss the risks associated with consuming drugs purchased off the internet, from social media sites or from anyone who is not their health care provider. Look for changes in their behavior, including irregular eating or sleeping patterns, loss of interest in usual activities, or signs of depression or anxiety.

People who use illicit drugs, or whose loved ones use illicit drugs, should take precautions against overdoses, including carrying multiple doses of naloxone, the opioid reversal drug. Naloxone is available at pharmacies in Oregon without a prescription. Signs that someone is experiencing an opioid overdose include: - Small, constricted “pinpoint” pupils

- Pale, bluish skin - Vomiting or foaming at the mouth - Slow, shallow breathing or, they may appear sleepy or lose consciousness. Call 9-1-1 right away if someone is unconscious, not breathing or if naloxone has been given. Medical experts at the Oregon Poison Center can help if you or a loved one is experiencing unwanted symptoms after taking pills or using illicit substances.

If you or a loved one is experiencing a poison emergency, call the Oregon Poison Center at 1-800222-1222. A trained health care provider is available 24 hours a day, seven days

a week. The call is free and confidential. Poison prevention education and other poison safety resources are available at https://www.ohsu.edu/oregon-poison-center.

State issues protection advisory for snowy plover

Courtesy from OPRD

Nehalem Bay snowy plover.

STAFF REPORT

Beachgoers are urged to help recovery efforts of the threatened western snowy plover by staying on the wet sand at snowy plover beaches during nesting season, March 15 – Sept. 15. Beachgoers will see ropes that identify sensitive plover nesting areas, as well as signs that identify restrictions to protect the small shorebirds during this period. Plover beaches remain open to foot and equestrian traffic on wet, packed sand throughout the nesting season. All other recreation on plover beaches is off limits on both wet and dry sand, including walking your dog (even on a leash), driving a vehicle, riding a bicycle, camping, burning wood or other materials, and flying kites or drones. “We appreciate everyone's help, it's making a difference,” Siuslaw National Forest Wildlife Biologist Cindy Burns said. “Research shows us that humans play an important role in the long-term success of the western snowy plover; if we can minimize our impact, this species has a greater chance of thriving.” These small birds nest on open sand along Oregon’s beaches. Nests, and especially chicks, are well-camouflaged. During the nesting season, human disturbances can flush adult plovers away from their nests as they attempt to defend their young. Left alone too long, or too often, eggs or chicks can die from exposure, predators, or people. Recreation restrictions occur in designated plover management areas: small stretches of beach along the entire coastline where plovers are nesting or could potentially nest. These areas collectively comprise about 40 miles of Oregon's 362 miles of shoreline.

“Visitors will have access to hundreds of miles of beaches that have no seasonal restrictions,” Oregon Parks and Recreation Department Ocean Shore Specialist Laurel Hillmann said. “By planning your trip, you can enjoy the coast and help keep these special birds safe.” Detailed maps can be found on the Oregon State Parks website (oregon.gov/ plovers) and on the Siuslaw National Forest website (go.usa.gov/xEh2h). Visitors to the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area can review maps at go.usa.gov/xdwYQ to identify unrestricted recreation areas and information on riding motor vehicles on the sand. New plover activity The increase in plover numbers in recent years has resulted in nesting occurring in new or historical nesting sites, including at Sand Lake Recreation Area. Like last year, visitors to Sand Lake may see roped off areas near the lake’s inlet to protect active nests and may encounter plovers on the beach. Beachgoers are encouraged to protect these birds by limiting recreation activities to wet sand areas near the water's edge, staying out of roped off nesting areas, packing all trash out, and keeping dogs on leash. Plover protections The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service listed western snowy plovers as a threatened species in 1993, when officials counted only 55 breeding adults. The numbers of breeding adults have steadily increased since then, from 107 in 2003 to 604 in 2021. Several land managers oversee beach activity for plover protection, primarily the U.S. Forest Service (USFS), the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD).

Habitat loss from invasive plants — as well as human disturbances, including litter and discarded food scraps that attract predators — have contributed to the birds’ decline. The Oregon Dunes Restoration Collaborative, saveoregondunes.org, is working with land managers to develop and implement a restoration strategy as well as to raise public awareness about the need to restore the dunes ecosystem for snowy plover, rare plants and animals, and the unique recreation opportunities offered here.

Leon is an older guy who needs some one-on-one. He isn’t into other cats or animals, so he should be your only pet unless you have a pet rock. He will talk your ear off if you have time to listen. Leon isn’t so happy here at the Cat House especially needs a plain diet. He hates getting a bath.

Selecting an Easier-to-Train Dog Breed Training is one of the most effective ways to keep companion animals safe and secure. When prospective pet owners begin looking for a new dog, one of the first thoughts that may come to mind is trainability and whether certain breeds are more trainable than others.

Border collies: Collies are bright and energetic dogs that like to herd with their agility and intelligence. • Australian shepherd: Another herding dog, Aussies have a natural focus on their owners and are bred to work with those owners in challenging environments.

• Doberman pinchers: Dobermans are smart and attentive to their owners. They have traditionally been employed as guard • dogs and require careful training and socialization to be tolerant of strangers. • German shepherds: These workhorses serve many different roles

because of their affinity for learning tasks. Like Dobermans, look for a well-socialized German shepherd to avoid anxiety and wariness with people. • Poodles: Poodles are popular because they don’t shed much, but also because they are an intelligent, obedient and versatile breed. • Golden retrievers: Golden retrievers are not the No. 1 family dog for nothing. Goldens are very intelligent and amiable. They often will do anything to please their owners. Labrador retrievers also take to training well and are very affectionate.
