Can the ocean adapt to rising temperatures? BY DAVID RUPKALVIS The News Guard
R
ising temperatures, possibly from man-caused climate change, are putting ocean life at risk. Maybe. During a presentation Thursday to celebrate the 50th year of Oregon Shores, Steve Palumbi, a biologist and author, said studies have shown some ocean animals have the ability to evolve and adapt to the changes in the water. Palumbi, who also works as a professor at Stanford University, was invited to talk about the Extreme Life of the Sea, which is also the title of a book he and his son wrote. “I’ve spent a lot of time on the Oregon coast,” he said. “It’s a fabulously beautiful place.” Palumbi started off by talking about the extreme life in the ocean. For example, some rockfish can live to be 120 years old. And some fish can “fly.” “Fish and marine life are amazing creatures,” Palumbi said. “Flying fish are only fast out of the water, and they don’t actually fly, they glide.” Palumbi said the fish evolved

As ocean temperatures rise, sea life, especially close to shores, is threatened by rising water temperatures and ocean acidification. Sea stars already have low numbers due to a sickness that spread through the coast in recent years.
hough there was rain prior to the June 14 meeting of the Lincoln County Commissioners, Commissioner Kaety Jacobson reported the situation is not looking good this year for Lincoln County. Jacobson provided a report on a meeting earlier that day of what she called “an ad hoc drought group” she formed shortly after joining the board of commissioners to consider the county’s drought readiness and response. Both the Alsea and Siletz have been at historic lows, though at the time of the meeting they were discharging well above average, Jacobson said. “The recent rain didn’t get us out of the direction we’re headed,” she explained, noting the U.S. Drought Monitor upgraded all of Lincoln County to severe drought. While the widespread rain over the previous weekend provided sufficient moisture to crops, the dry conditions returned in the days following. Jacobson indicated the drought group expects the need for a drought declaration in the next week or two. Fifteen Oregon counties have requested drought declarations, Jacobson reported, with 18 under governor-declared droughts. Nearby Lane and Benton counties are experiencing drought. County Counsel Wayne Belmont noted the benefit of representatives of local water purveyors attending the meeting. He also pointed out a drought declaration in and of itself does not trigger either conservation or curtailment plans. “We want to be consistent in our messaging and information to the public,” Belmont told Jacobson and Commissioner Clare Hall. Board Chair Doug Hunt was absent from the meeting. A number of larger water purveyors, including Seal Rock Water District and Devil’s Lake Water Improvement District, and the cities of Lincoln City, Newport, Yachats and Waldport, formed the Mid-Coast Water Conservation Consortium. The purpose of the consortium is to promote water conservation awareness and actions, and also to increase resiliency during droughts and emergencies though alignment of mitigation and response activities, sharing conservation resources and providing a consistent message to water consumers, Belmont explained. Belmont a recommended that when the board makes a declaration of drought, at the same time it request the consortium and other public and private water purveyors begin their conservation efforts — in terms of education and specific actions such as limitations and curtailment, which he indicated was universally supported by members of the consortium. The board of commissioners expects to make a drought declaration in the next week or two.

Berlin honored with Gold Award
State issues chlorine supply disruption alert JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net
Bryanna Berlin is an Ambassador Girl Scout with Troop 10143 in Lincoln City. She has spent the last year working on her Gold Award Project. The Gold Award is the highest honor earned in Girl Scouts. The Gold Award recognizes leadership, effort and impact girls have on their community. Her idea became a project that produced 230 colorful, bright comfortable pillow cases for kids at Doernbecher Hospital. Bryanna’s project idea came out of her love of a
friend who lost his battle with cancer as a teenager. Doernbecher was a place he spent a lot of time. Anything soft, colorful and cozy brought some much needed joy. Even as Covid hit and she was forced to adjust her plan she was still able to collect donations of material and with the assistance of some amazing sewers produced 230 pillow cases. Her perseverance, determination, organization and ability to adapt even as she worked to graduate from high school has brought

The Oregon Office of Emergency Management (OEM) has issued an alert of a potential chlorine supply disruption in Oregon. OEM emphasized that tap water throughout the state remains clean and safe despite the chlorine supply chain interruption affecting regional drinking water and wastewater treatment utilities along the West Coast. “There are no immediate impacts, and we continue to track for potential changes or needs,” OEM Deputy Director Matt Marheine said. “The public can continue to use water for drinking, cooking and bathing, but may consider limiting outdoor use to extend the state’s current chlorine supply. We appreciate the public’s careful water usage and want to reassure there is no need to start amassing additional volumes of water.” The chlorine shortage is the result of a major electrical failure recently suffered at Westlake Chemical, based in Longview, Washington. Westlake supplies chlorine to water and sewer utilities in Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Northern California. The chlorine shortage does not impact all Oregon water and sewer utilities, as some entities have their own on-site chlorine generators or have enough supplies on hand to last through the next several weeks. Based on the most updated information available, this timeframe is projected to be sufficient for chlorine supplies to resume. Lincoln City officials have posted the following statement on the city’s
website. “The Lincoln City Public Works Department has been proactively working this issue over the last 24 hours and we have coordinated with Lincoln City Parks and Recreation Department. Here is the current status for Lincoln City; • Our water treatment method uses chlorine in the form of chlorine gas in very small amounts to ensure our water is safe to drink. We have approximately 80 days of chlorine supply remaining. • Some wastewater treatment plants also use chlorine gas but ours does not – we use ultra-violet light to disinfect. • Our pools were converted to an ultra-violet and Calcium Hypochlorite tablet system in 2017; we have enough supply of the tablets to get us through the summer. Currently the City has no issues at this point with the chlorine supply disruption and the water is safe to drink. We will monitor the situation closely and take proactive actions if necessary. We aren’t asking people to curtail water use beyond good conservation practices at this time.” OEM said utilities that may be impacted are aware of the situation and are working directly with the Governor’s Office, Oregon Health Authority (OHA), Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), OEM, and utilizing Oregon Water/ Wastewater Agency Response Network (ORWARN) and federal authorities to get the chlorine supply they need. Additionally, Westlake is working to bring the Longview plant back online quickly and evaluating options to help supply chlorine through its other
“There are no immediate impacts, and we continue to track for potential changes or needs,” OEM Deputy Director Matt Marheine said. “The public can continue to use water for drinking, cooking and bathing, but may consider limiting outdoor use to extend the state’s current chlorine supply. We appreciate the public’s careful water usage and want to reassure there is no need to start amassing additional volumes of water.” -Office of Emergency Management (OEM) plants and help alleviate the current supply shortage. “Oregon utilities are collectively working together to inventory needs across the state and preparing to share the remaining chlorine supply through mutual aid until production resumes,” Marheine said. “We are relying on our fellow Oregonians to be responsible and considerate with their water supplies and use.” How Oregonians Can Use Water Wisely to Extend the Current Chlorine Supply • Use water only for drinking, cooking and bathing • Limit outdoor use such as filling pools, washing cars or watering lawns • Be considerate of fellow Oregonians when purchasing additional water supplies The electrical failure at Westlake follows a fire that destroyed BioLab in Lake Charles, Louisiana, in August 2020, rendering that plant inoperable. That facility was responsible for a significant portion of chlorine tablets produced for the U.S. market, causing a nationwide chlorine shortage.

Turning trash into treasure to teach a lesson BY DAVID RUPKALVIS The News Guard
A Bandon art gallery with a mission far greater than just art reopened its door this week after being closed for 15 months due to COVID-19. Washed Ashore opened its gallery at 325 2nd Street SE in downtown Bandon after using the time off to make some improvements to the gallery. “We’re super stoked, super excited for it,” gallery Manager Cameron McGrew said last week. “We’re getting a few new additions. We’re getting the walls painted, and the carpets have already been cleaned. It’s exciting to have a fresh start. Washed Ashore opened in 2010 when Angela Haseltine Pozzi came up with an idea to make art out of trash that washes up on beaches in the area. Pozzi, who also serves as artistic director, joined with artist Steve Wright to create masterpieces that are made almost fully out of trash. Washed Ashore collects trash that has been removed from breaches through volunteer cleanup efforts as well as trash collected by park rangers. The items are then cleaned and used to make massive sculptures. “We will definitely pick up whatever they find and turn it into some awesome sea creatures,” McGrew said. And by doing so, Washed Ashore hopes to spread a bigger message about keeping trash out of the ocean. “We’re an educationbased nonprofit,” McGrew said. “Our goal is to educate the public. We’ve actually done viewings in Canada. We’ve been all over the United States. Right now, we’re in Norfolk, Virgina, Green Bay, Wisconsin and Turtle Bay in Redding, California.” Washed Ashore also has pieces in the Smithsonian, Florida Aquarium and different aquariums and zoos across Oregon. But the home base is and has always been in Bandon. It is there where Pozzi and Wright come up with their ideas and it is there where volunteers help put together the sculptures piece by piece. The end result is larger than life sculptures, all showcasing sea creatures
and all made from trash. “We’re cleaning the beaches, we’re educating the public and trying to engage the community,” McGrew said. While most of the sculptures or made of plastic, some include Styrofoam, nets from fishing boats and more. The biggest problem, though, remains plastic. The issue is plastic never fully degrades, so it can remain in the ocean for years and years. And during that time, it can cause havoc on animals that live and rely on the sea. Washed Ashore is trying to spread the message that most plastic use is not necessary. At the gallery, they offer water in biodegradable milk cartons. “Plastic is necessary to an extent,” McGrew said. “But the single-use plastic is what we’re trying to avoid, things like single-use soda bottles, plastic wrapping around food that you’ll just take off and throw away.” To make the point, McGrew likes showing a sculpture in the museum. Made largely of plastic water bottles, the majority of the bottles came from the Olympic games in Beijing, China. They washed ashore near Bandon several years later. “Everything you buy is a vote,” McGrew said. “So, if you choose to buy boxed water, for example, you’re voting with your wallet every time you make a purchase. If we were to all just stop buying plastic soda bottles, they would get the message.” Instead, McGrew said, buy aluminum, glass and paper products that can be easily recycled. When visitors come to Washed Ashore, McGrew or other docents will start conversations with visitors to showcase the importance of voting with their wallets. As a nonprofit, the gallery relies on donations, volunteers and grants. It is also now making decent money loaning its finished products to museums and other places around the country. Inside the gallery is still the best place to get a look at the work. There are over 85 sculptures in the gallery, with the largest probably a parrot fish that is 9-1/2 feet tall, 14 feet long and six feet wide.

Henry the Fish is one of dozens of pieces of art created by Washed Ashore, an educational nonprofit in Bandon. Washed Ashore uses trash that washes up on local beaches to make artwork. Below, a tufted puffin that can be seen at Coquille Point also is made fully of trash collected in the ocean.

Further, no action has been instituted to recover the debt, or any part thereof, now remaining secured by the trust deed, or, if such action has been instituted, such action has been dismissed except as permitted by ORS 86.752(7). Both the beneficiary and the trustee have elected to sell the said real property to satisfy the obligations secured by said trust deed and notice has been recorded pursuant to Section 86.752(3) of Oregon Revised Statutes. There is a default by grantor or other person owing an obligation, performance of which is secured by the trust deed, or by the successor in interest, with respect to provisions therein which authorize sale in the event of such provision. The default for which foreclosure is made is grantor’s failure to pay when due the following sum: TOTAL REQUIRED TO REINSTATE: $21,243.33 TOTAL REQUIRED TO PAYOFF: $101,868.75 Because of interest, late charges, and other charges that may vary from dayto-day, the amount due on the day you pay may be greater. It will be necessary for you to contact the Trustee before the time you tender reinstatement or the payoff amount so that you may be advised of the exact amount you will be required to pay. By reason of the default, the beneficiary has declared all sums owing on the obligation secured by the trust deed immediately due and payable, those sums being the following, to- wit: The installments of principal and interest which became due on 12/1/2019, and all subsequent installments of principal and interest through the date of this Notice, plus amounts that are due for late charges, delinquent property taxes, insurance premiums, advances made on senior liens, taxes and/or insurance, trustee’s fees, and any attorney fees and court costs arising from or associated with the beneficiaries efforts to protect and preserve its security, all of which must be paid as a condition of reinstatement, including all sums that shall accrue through reinstatement or pay-off. Nothing in this notice shall be construed as a waiver of any fees owing to the Beneficiary under the Deed of Trust pursuant to the terms of the loan documents. Whereof, notice hereby is given that QUALITY LOAN SERVICE CORPORATION OF WASHINGTON, the undersigned trustee will on 9/8/2021 at the hour of 9:00 AM , Standard of Time, as established by section 187.110, Oregon Revised Statues, At the Front Entrance of the Lincoln County Courthouse, located at 225 West Olive Street, Newport, OR 97365 County of LINCOLN, State of Oregon, sell at public auction to the highest bidder for cash the interest in the said described real property which the grantor had or had power to convey at the time of the execution by him of the said trust deed, together with any interest which the grantor or his successors in interest acquired after the execution of said trust deed, to satisfy the foregoing obligations thereby secured and the costs and expenses of sale, including a reasonable charge by the trustee. Notice is further given that any person named in Section 86.778 of Oregon Revised Statutes has the right to have the foreclosure proceeding dismissed and the trust deed reinstated by payment to the beneficiary of the entire amount then due (other than such portion of said principal as would not then be due had no default occurred), together with the costs, trustee’s and attorney’s fees and curing any other default complained of in the Notice of Default by tendering the performance required under the obligation or trust deed, at any time prior to five days before the date last set for sale.

reaucratic technical errors. “For months, lawmakers have known that this day would come, that the eviction moratorium would come to an end,” said Senator Dick Anderson (R-Lincoln City), a member of the Senate Housing and Development Committee. “This is the second time this year our state housing agency has made a commitment to vulnerable Orego-
nians in need of help and has failed. Kicking the can down the road by extending the moratorium won’t fix the problem. There needs to be a change in the system, and it needs to happen fast. “In my conversations with advocates and service providers, the biggest problem is the software that is being used to administer applications and funds. It’s not flexible enough to get
help to those who need it on time. Without any change from the government, there isn’t any guarantee that the proposed 60-day eviction moratorium extension will be enough. We may just be back in the same position, scrambling to keep people housed.” Housing providers have repeatedly been promised they would be made whole by lawmakers. Yet the latest
move to extend the moratorium another 60 days has them worried that money will be delayed again. “Nobody wants to see people lose their homes,” Sen. Anderson continued. “Government failures might cause that to happen. Tenants and housing providers need a fix fast if we want people to stay in their homes.” -Senator Dick Anderson

Public works launches summer improvements
JEREMY C. RUARK / THE NEWS GUARD
One of the improvement areas targeted by Lincoln City Public Works crews is along 14th Street just off Highway 101. JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net
Director and City Engineer Stephanie Reid. In the following conversation, Reid points out how the city is addressing public concerns about street conditions, traffic safety and infrastructure issues. The News Guard: Over

the last several months, what have been the most frequent public concerns/ complaints about the city’s streets and roads? Stephanie Reid: Of course Highway 101 congestion continues to be on people’s complaint list especially as summer begins. By far the most complaints we receive about our city streets is speeding. We have invested in speed feed-back signs and installed them on several high volume streets and
those do help most of the time. However, we can’t install them on every street where we receive speeding complaints. City staff is also receiving many complaints about pedestrians walking in the streets and not yielding to vehicles. I’m not sure what to do about that other than letting folks know when there is no sidewalk available the streets are shared by all users; please be aware of your surroundings and be patient this summer.

The News Guard: What have been the challenges in meeting the public demands for street and road improvements? Reid: Funding the list of street and road improvements is a universal challenge. We do receive some transient room tax for street operations and some for capital projects but our current level of funding is not enough to build and maintain a street/pedestrian/bicycle system much beyond what we currently have. We depend on grants for Highway 101 improvements and larger local street improvements. The News Guard: What are your department’s specific summer and fall priority projects for street, watersewer, other infrastructure work and why those projects? Reid: The priorities for the City’s infrastructure projects are identified through adopted master plans and the budget process. Our projects this year are: • NE 14th Street Side-
walk Improvements • SW 29th Street Sidewalk Improvements • NE 26th Drive Overlay • High School Drive and Highway 101 Intersection Improvements • Generator Replacement at the Water Treatment Plant • De-watering Equipment Installation at the Wastewater Treatment Plant • Spyglass Wastewater Pump Station Replacement (SE Fleet Avenue near Taft High School) The News Guard: What are the costs of the priority projects and how are they being funded? Reid: The cost for these seven projects totals approximately $3.3 million. Funding sources are mostly from transient room tax, sewer and water system development fees and the state’s motor vehicle tax. Many of these projects were on hold due to the uncertainty last year.

to fly as a means of survival because that is their only way to escape faster hunters. “What are really the fastest fish?” Palumbi asked. “We eventually come down to the billfish. Swordfish and marlins are the fastest fish in the ocean. They can get up to 40 miles per hour. These marlins and billfish are not only swimming at 40 miles per hour, they’re eating and 40 miles per hour.” As the water temperature has risen, going up 1.5 degrees over the last 100 years, one thing that has intrigued marine biologists are animals that can survive in the hottest water. In the ocean, that’s near the hydrothermal vents off the west coast. Palumbi said red tube worms thrive in the hot water, and one specific worm, the Pompei worm, is stunning to scientists. The worm lives at the end of the underwater smoker chimneys, with half
its body inside and half outside. One end of the worm is at 176 degrees with the other end at 35 degrees. “The worm lives at iced water to hot tea in the length of its body, which is about an inch,” Palumbi said. “If we are all concerned about the oceans for the next 50 years, we need to think about the extremes.” Palumbi said as the water changes, life in it has four options. It can move, acclimate, adapt or die. Scientists are conducting studies with the idea of seeing if something can be done to avoid the fourth option. “The ocean is a lot warmer than it has been, and that’s affecting organisms in a pretty strong way,” Palumbi said. “But if the worm living at 176 degrees can adapt to it, what are the chances other species can adapt?” He said some fish species
have already started moving in response to changing temperatures. He said as water temperatures rise, many fish that live in cold water are moving north to maintain the water temperature they prefer. Canary rockfish, which are currently spread throughout the west coast, are expected to move all the way to the Aleutian Islands by 2080. “Evolution is pretty common and pretty visible in ocean situations,” Palumbi said. As an example, he pointed to pink salmon in Alaska. For years, nets captured the biggest salmon while allowing smaller fish to escape. In response, the salmon began to mature at a smaller size, allowing more and more to survive. Outside of the water, bighorn sheep also evolved as hunters were only shooting
the animals with the largest horns. The result is mature males started growing smaller horns, which led to longer lives and more time to breed. Palumbi said he and others have spent a lot of time studying coral bleaching, which many believe is a direct result of rising temperatures. He said some areas of coral appear to be completely dead due to bleaching. “When you look closer, you may see one piece of coral that’s bleached and one right next to it that’s not,” he said. Palumbi said the difference could be a sign that coral is evolving rapidly to survive the changing ocean. Studies on the coral in Palau show some are heat tolerant. “Heat-resistant colonies are pretty widespread,” Palumbi said. “They’re pretty common.” The question for scientists
is was the heat resistance due to adaptation or was it genetic? If it was genetic, via evolution, it could be a sign that coral could survive. Studies showed coral from heat-tolerant parents were also heat-tolerant, showing it is likely genetic. “Coral can continue to evolve if climate change is not too severe,” Palumbi said. “This model shows coral can continue to evolve and keep up.” Along with rising temperatures, acidification of the ocean is a growing concern. As CO2 levels rise, the ocean absorbs most of it, which turns into carbonic acid. To see how the ocean is adapting, Palumbi and others studies sea urchins under different conditions. “You basically could see evolution happening in these experiments,” Palumbi said. “The sea urchins have the
ability to adapt to future CO2 events.” With sea creatures showing the ability to evolve quickly, what role does science play in protecting the ocean? “Can we help?” Palumbi asked. “Can we move heatresistant corals or kelp or sea urchins to other areas? Show we do that?” That’s the question scientists have not reached a consensus about. While that discussion continues, Palumbi said the challenge is one that must be faced on multiple fronts. “Financial, economic and political arms of society must grapple with climate change to solve it over the next 50 years so that the oceans begin to recover in the next 100 years,” he said. “My job is to find the conditions, find the mechanisms so we can keep everything alive over the next decades.”
Tip of the Week: Move Over Law
STAFF REPORT
In the last 10 years, more than 700 law enforcement officers have been killed in traffic incidents, according to the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT). In many of those cases, the officers were pulled over on the side of the road when inattentive drivers crashed into them at high speeds. Oregon has a strict law designed to protect the people the public depends on for protection. The Move Over Law (ORS 811.147) states that if you are approaching any type of emergency vehicle, tow truck or roadside assistance vehicle which is stopped on the roadside with emergency lights activated, you must: • Move over into another available lane. • If you can’t safely change lanes, slow down to a speed that is at least 5
mph below the posted or designated speed of the roadway. • In all cases, the driver must try to provide as much room as possible for the emergency vehicle, tow truck or roadside assistance vehicle. The Move Over Law is in place to help protect law enforcement officers, emergency workers, tow operators and those who routinely provide assistance to motorists along the highways. “This group of dedicated professionals face a deadly threat on a daily basis: speeding and inattentive drivers. But the law also ex-

Port intern from Waldport HS gets the job done CHERI BRUBAKER Guest Contributor
TOLEDO — Waldport High School sophomore Jake Turkaly was one of three high school student interns at the Port of Toledo this Spring. On his last day, Turkaly assisted boat builder Dave Stocker to replace the main engine, generator and refrigeration unit of the F/V Pacific Pacer. “He’s a pretty talented guy,” Stocker said of Turkaly, who that day fabricated gussets to reinforce a refrigeration unit and helped Stocker dismantle
the engine and remove it. Stocker complimented Turkaly’s attitude and enthusiasm. Port Manager Lorna Davis said she wanted to hire Turkaly, but had to wait until the 16-year-old turns 18. Eight Lincoln County School District students participated in the welding program — a partnership between the school district, Oregon Coast Community College and the port. School district students and those from the college attend classes in the instructional welding lab at
the port. Enrollment capacity was limited by COVID this year, Davis said. Twelve students attended classes at the campus in Toledo. With more than 120 students on the community college’s wait list, it’s one of the most popular programs, Davis noted. While training potential future workers to meet the needs of the port and industry at larg e, Davis indicated the other part of the port’s commitment to the community is to provide local high school students with internship
opportunities. Turkaly and the other interns worked in the yard a few days a week, she explained, learning marine trade and what it’s like to work in a shipyard — gaining valuable skills and actual work experience. In addition to welding, Turkaly earned to drive a fork lift, operate a scissor lift, how to weld and fabricate metal parts, and helped to install a tail shaft in a commercial fishing boat. Working with boat owners, captains and crews, as well as port staff, he gained valuable, realworld work experience.
Port intern Jake Turkaly. “I learned a lot. I worked with some great people. It
was a great experience,” said Turkaly.
