Fire district considers $15 million bond measure

BY SHARI PHIEL news@thechronicleonline.com

District officials from Columbia River Fire & Rescue are considering placing a $15 million 20-year bond measure on the upcoming May ballot to fund long-term equipment needs.

“We had a citizen’s focus group meeting on Thursday night [Jan. 30]. We just wanted to hear some feedback and some opinions on whether that group thought it was prudent to be looking at something like that in this environment,” said Fire Chief Jay Tappan.

According to the chief, the focus group gave the district the thumbs up on the plan.

But a final decision to move ahead won’t come until the fire district’s board of directors and the public has had an opportunity to weigh in on the issue.

The bond measure will come before the board during a special meeting to be held Feb. 11. The meeting will include an extended public comment period to allow those interested in the bond to voice their opinions.

If passed, the bond mea-

sure would add around 30 cents per $1,000 of assessed value to annual property tax bills for property owners in the fire district boundary.

“We had a two-hour critical discussion and they asked some hard questions,” said Division Chief Ron Youngberg.

“We asked some hard questions, too to get them thinking about it,” added Tappan.

The bond measure is an idea that has been in the works for quite some time.

Since the economic downtown in 2007 and 2008, the district has slowly but steadily making cuts to offset rising expenses. Then in 2009, the district formed a finance committee to look at ways to reduce costs while maintaining staffing. And in 2012, a sustainability committee was founded to consider what needed to be done to sustain service levels.

District officials said the outcome of those committees was essentially the same, that maintaining service to the level the community expects must be given top priority.

Local Democrats call for end to oil train shipments

BY SHARI PHIEL news@thechronicleonline.com

SHARI PHIEL / The Chronicle Columbia Pacific Bio-refinery, which is owned and operated by Global Partners, received approval to increase its monthly rail shipments of crude oil to the Port Westward facility. Local Democrats want the rail traffic halted until safety concerns can be addresses by the county, port and state.

The Columbia County Democrats have signed a resolution calling for the Port of St. Helens, Columbia County and the State of Oregon to “demand the immediate cessation of rail deliveries to Port Westward of volatile Bakken shale crude oil.”

Rainier resident Darrel Whipple presented the resolution to the county commissioners during its regular board meeting on Jan. 29.

“Last night the precinct committee persons from around the county passed the resolution… it’s a resolution that’s more than the title suggests. It could be more properly described as a resolution against the unsafe oil transport through Columbia

Appeal of port rezoning in the works

BY SHARI PHIEL news@thechronicleonline.com

Now that the county commissioners have officially approved the Port of St. Helens rezoning application for Port Westward, opponents to the rezoning are moving forward with an appeal.

Local farmer Mike Seely and Columbia Riverkeeper are working together to file an appeal within the 21-day window provided by the state Land Use Board of Appeals.

Seely, who owns and operates Seely Mint Farm at Port Westward, says he has real concerns about the types of businesses and industries the port is recruiting to the area.

“It’s like they haven’t vetted any of these potential clients,” Seely said.

As an example, Seely said at least some of the proposed developments – such as Northwest Innovation Works’ methanol refinery project – would have to be built on the port’s existing inventory of land. Some of that land, Seely said, is below flood plain levels and would have to be built up and filled in to make usable.

“Depending on where they park it, you’re talking nearly 90 acres that they

have to fill roughly 15 feet deep with sand. Where in the heck are they going to come up with that?” Seely added.

Despite those concerns, Seely said he’s still working to resolve his differences with the port so he can keep his operation moving ahead.

“If the port would do what they promised and get involved with us and Global [Partners], we would have our problems resolved.

But the port is not following through with what they promised,” he added.

The Clatskanie farmer certainly isn’t the only one worried about Port Westward’s future. Environmental watchdog Columbia Riverkeeper is working with Seely and the Crag Law Firm handling the appeal.

“This rezone paves the way for dirty and dangerous oil and coal trains,” said Brett VandenHeuvel, executive director for Columbia Riverkeeper. “Our river, salmon and farmland are too valuable to sacrifice for exporting oil and coal.”

The commissioners gave tentative approval for the rezoning application – although with some changes – this past December but formally signed off at the commissioners’ Jan. 29 regular meeting. The application included 957 acres to be rezoned from agricultural to rural industrial use.

That number was reduced by 119 acres after the commissioners denied approval for two riverfront lots in the application.

While the remaining 837 acres was approved to be changed from agricultural zoning to Resource Industrial – Planned Development (RIPD), the commissioners did include conditions such as requiring a traffic study to be prepared for each proposed development, controls for site run-off and dust mitigation, and a final condition that the storage, loading and unloading of coal was specifically not justified and would not be allowed on the property without a separately approved exception. The full ordinance is available online with this story at TheChronicleOnline.com.

Seely and Riverkeeper’s appeal challenges the removal of zoning restrictions they say protects Oregon’s productive agricultural land. The acreage approved today for industrial use is adjacent to the Seely Mint Farm where high value mint is grown, manufactured and sold nationally in chocolates and teas and natural oil products. Seely Mint Farms recently announced it had signed a contract with Whole Foods grocery stores to put its mint patties and other products in stores

nationwide.

“We’ve created a successful rural industry in Columbia County but the commission is choosing oil trains over local business. We’re fighting for our company and the jobs that we provide. We’d be wiped out if this rezone proceeds,” said Seely.

Opponents to the rezoning point out that even the county’s own planning commission voted against the rezoning application because the change violated local farmland protections.

“The county’s decision will support more dangerous crude oil trains rolling through the Columbia River Gorge, neighborhoods in North Portland, and communities along Highway 30,” said VandenHeuvel.

“It’s a stunning decision that deserves a broader public discussion.”

“I have to protect our invested stakeholders – which is my family and my employees,” said Seely.

Seely has already received offers from other areas to move his operations, one of those offers coming from another Oregon city and two others coming from cities in Washington.

“Sometimes, when I look at all of the headaches I have here I think why don’t I just say forget it,” Seely said.

County,” said Whipple.

The resolution came about after several oil train derailments occurred in 2013, one in Canada that resulted in the loss of 47 lives.

“There are other issues involved, including the unsafe nature of the crude oil that is coming from North Dakota and has been implicated in the explosive disasters in Canada, Alabama and North Dakota. On top of that, we also have the inadequate condition of our rail infrastructure,” Whipple added.

Currently, crude oil is shipped through Columbia County as it heads to Columbia Pacific Bio-refinery at Port Westward. Although the facility was originally built to function as an ethanol refinery, that changed over the ­­­­ See OIL TRAINS, Page A8

Marijuana dispensary possible in wake of new state law

BY SHARI PHIEL news@thechronicleonline.com

SCAPPOOSE — Warren resident Samuel Vickery thinks it may be time for a medical marijuana dispensary in the county. Vickery was at the Feb. 3 Scappoose City Council meeting with the intent to ask the council what kind of obstacles he might run into if he pursued opening a dispensary in that city.

“I have plans to open a medical marijuana dispensary out this way. Through the process of elimination, I have a couple of places in mind. I know landlords here are concerned with how you guys feel about it,” said Vickery.

In less than a month, the state’s medical marijuana dispensary law will go into effect and Oregon Health Authority will begin accepting applications from individuals who wish to register and operate a medical marijuana dispensary in Oregon. Vickery wants to be ready for that March 3 deadline. ­­­­ See MARIJUANA, Page A8

Parks and trails master plan survey goes live The St. Helens community has a new opportunity to shape the future of the St. Helens parks and trails system.

The City of St. Helens has launched a Parks and Trails Master Plan Survey to gather public perception about the existing condition of the parks and trails system in St. Helens. The online survey is available at http://tinyurl. com/parkandtrail. Survey questions are designed to gather a variety of information about St. Helens parks and trails, including how frequently specific parks are used, what amenities and sports facilities the public feels are important, how much money the community feels that the City should budget to improve parks and trails, and the importance of features like parking lots, security lighting, pedestrian access and informative signage.

The survey will remain open for three weeks or until the target level of respondents has been met. It takes approximately 15 minutes to fill out the survey. The results will be used to help guide future recreational development by identifying the recreational needs of the community. In order to capture the community

vision for the parks and trails system, the City hopes to receive feedback from a wide range of parks users.

If you have ever thought of the different ways that a specific park could be improved or if you wish St. Helens had a more comprehensive trail network, this is the time to let the City know your ideas.

The Parks and Trails Master Plan Survey is just one-way the city is working to gather public input. The city will conduct a followup public workshop in late March or early April that all St. Helens residents are invited to participate in and attend. The exact date has not been chosen, but you can follow the city’s Facebook page (www.facebook.com/ cityofsthelens) or email Jenny Dimsho at jdimsho@ ci.st-helens.or.us to request updates on the public workshop.

During the workshop, the public will be invited to see the final results of the survey in conjunction with input received from city commissions. The public will have the opportunity to provide input on park and trail improvement proposals as well as make their own recommendations for recreational improvements. With help

Warming center opens its doors in St. Helens The Columbia County Warming Center will be open from Sunday, Feb. 2 through Saturday, Feb. 15 at Plymouth Presbyterian Church, 2615 Sykes Road (one block behind Burgerville).

Anyone who is homeless or living in cold, leaky, dangerous places is invited to spend the night in a safe,

clean, warm, and welcoming warming center.

The center is open from 6:30 p.m.–8 a.m. Welcome time is 6:30–7:30 p.m.

Those staying the night in the warming center will have to leave by 8 a.m. the next morning.

For more information or for questions, call 971-2250227 or 503-366-3800.

Relay for Life kickoff carnival set for Feb. 8 The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of Columbia County is getting under way; join them for the kickoff carnival on Feb. 8 at Moose Lodge No. 591 in St. Helens from 5–7 p.m.

As participants gather this year to register teams and launch fundraising efforts, they’ll be helping the American Cancer Society redouble its efforts to finish the fight against cancer – not just for members of Columbia County, but around the world.

As the world’s largest grassroots fundraising program, the Relay For Life movement mobilizes friends, families, businesses, hospitals, schools, service organizations and faith– based groups in communities throughout the country, to celebrate those who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and provide everyone an opportunity to fight back against the disease.

The kickoff is an excellent time to get involved in the Relay For Life of Columbia County as a volunteer, team

captain, participant, or sponsor, and make a difference to finish the fight against cancer. The Feb. 8 kickoff event at St. Helens Moose Lodge, 57317 Old Portland Road, will feature speakers from the community who have benefitted from the funds raised at Relay events, will honor cancer survivors, and have a fun family carnival atmosphere.

The kickoff carnival will feature carnival games, prizes, treats, balloon animals, and Darth Vader (be sure to bring your camera).

Attractions will include, but are not limited to: Plinko, face painting, temporary tattoos, fishing game, dime toss, balloon animals, bean bag toss, ping pong toss and duck hunt (for the young ones).

There will be shaved ice and cotton candy. There will also be sweatshirts for sale and the Moose Lodge will have snacks, food, and drinks for purchase.

For more information about the program, visit the American Cancer Society or Relayforlife.org/ columbiacountyor.

from the community, the city will start to prioritize the proposals based on importance and project feasibility.

Parks and trails are an important resource for improving the livability of a city. The St. Helens City Council, Parks Commission and Bicycle and Pedestrian Commission have all identified the need to update the city’s outdated parks plan and to incorporate trails in the update.

In the spring of 2012, the city applied for and received a grant from the Ford Family Foundation to hire a Resource Assistance for Rural Environments (RARE) AmeriCorps member. RARE member Jenny Dimsho was selected. Dimsho started work at St. Helens City Hall in September 2013 for an 11-month assignment that includes updating the city’s existing parks plan and incorporating trails into the plan in order to create a final product: a City of St. Helens Parks and Trails Master Plan.

Letters Help for job seekers I would like to let everyone know there is a wonderful community service in Columbia County now in its third year of successfully guiding people through the work search process.

Among those who have been helped with their explorations are: folks laid off from jobs; those returning to work after long absences; displaced homemakers; others who are working part-time but want full-time; and some who want to change careers. We have also helped retirees who find themselves wanting/needing to go back to work or who are looking for volunteer opportunities.

Participants have been finding jobs after attending sessions on topics such as: telephone interviews; staying motivated; finding those “hidden” jobs; dealing with rejection; networking for introverts; dealing with age issues; finding career direction; and other subjects as requested.

The Job Search Group is open to the general public and is offered free of charge. We have established positive working relationships with local resources and combine efforts by making mutual referrals.

If this sounds like a resource that could help you or someone you know please consider this an invitation to come and check us out. Sometimes a group can give a person more strength than he/she has as an individual.

We meet on Tuesdays from 10-11 a.m. in Room 201 at Warren Community Fellowship, 56523 Columbia River Hwy., in Warren.

Cynthia Dailey-Hewkin, St. Helens What it’s all about As Relay for Life of Columbia County kicks off their fundraising this year at the Moose Lodge in St. Helens, I have found myself getting some lessons on what all of this is really about.

In years past, my family has participated, and as a stereotypical husband I have helped with set up and tear down, but mostly looked at this as a mini vacation from the wife and kids in August during the big relay event.

Sure I have had many people in my family affected by cancer. Some have survived, some have not, and some survived multiple times. This year I decided to dive in and try to help and by getting involved I am getting a bigger picture of not only what goes on, but how others feel and relate to

Speedbump

the event throughout the year.

I used to think that Relay for Life was just about breast cancer and supporting a cure for that, but I learned that it supports all kinds of cancer. I really didn’t know that. I actually thought that when men were announced as survivors it meant that they had survived breast cancer. Relay for Life is all about cancer. No matter what kind of cancer it is. My wife wanted to include my uncle as part of Luminaria, which honors survivors and those that have passed. It is a beautiful event, but I had to remind myself that he didn’t have to pass of breast cancer to be part of it.

Also, I used to think that it was just about fund raising for research, but over the years I have gotten an education. I learned that in Columbia County, the Relay for Life organization helps with supporting those in the community currently battling this disease. Whether it is a visit, a phone, or a ride to an appointment Relay for Life of Columbia County spends time all year long doing what they can to not only fight cancer, but to make sure that people know they don’t have to fight it alone. A lot still goes to research. Over $4 million in grants were shared in Oregon with places like Oregon Health Sciences University, Oregon State University, and University of Oregon getting some of those grants for major research programs.

Now you may think like I did that all this relay stuff is just about fundraising and getting dollars into the hands of people who will do research, but this year I am learning that for those that are participating, especially at the big relay event, it is much more than that. For those that have survived I am told that it is a time to be thankful they have made it and appreciate the ones that supported them, spend time with others who have a deep understanding of what they went through it, and to hold up the people who are going through it now and show them that even in the darkest times that there are others to turn to.

For the caregivers it is a time to celebrate and memorialize the family and/ or friends that have had to fight, to let others know that they are there to help, and to spend some time with others who have had to walk alongside those in need. For many others it is a time to remember and support their loved ones both here and gone, and

to celebrate with friends and family that they have made it past a very difficult time in their lives.

So as this year’s celebration begins, I hope you will join Relay for Life of Columbia County for a carnival at the Moose Lodge in St. Helens on Saturday, Feb. 8 from 5–7 p.m. It is much more than just fundraising for research. It is really about love and life.

Erik Linden, St. Helens Warm and Fuzzy I must respond to the Jan. 29 Viewpoint by David Sprau concerning the P&W railroad bridge over Milton Creek.

Mr. Sprau seems to convey a warm and fuzzy feeling about the structural integrity of this 115-year-old bridge. A bridge that is missing very important parts of structural steel at the center bent of said bridge. Mr. Sprau clams that these parts were only there as a precaution for some heavy loads in route to the Trojan nuclear power plant.

I don’t dispute these claims, but if these pieces of iron were install for the purpose of strengthening the bridge then ask yourself why in the world would they remove them?

Mr. Sprau may know much about the railroad.

However as a 40-year member of the International Association of Bridge, Structural, Ornamental and Reinforcing Ironworkers, I think I know a little more about bridges than he does. In fact that railroad bridge was more than likely built by some of the charter members of Ironworkers Local No. 29 in Portland.

The bridge was built in 1899 and Local No. 29 was chartered in 1901.

The bent used to sit dead center of the bridge on the critical center splice where the main sections of the bridge meet.

If you look at the huge concrete footing that the bent used to rest on, you will see that this application does not look like a temporary installation.

Mr. Sprau loses creditability when he equates single trucks moving along highway 30 to a 1.4-mile-long train carrying the highly explosive crude oil. Ask the people in the cities of Casselton, N.D., Plaster Rock, New Brunswick, LacMe`gantic, Quebec and yes even at Port Westward where a 300 ton generator fell off a transporter on to a loaded crude oil tanker.

Thank god that an explosion did not ensue. There have also been derailments of crude trains in Pennsylvania and Ala-

bama.

In closing I must say, to the trained eye one can see that a 115-yearold bridge that lacks the minimum standard maintenance as reported in the 2009 ODOT Rail Division- Rail Bridge Assessments. This bridge is rusting apart, is in dire need of paint, and is missing parts. It should not give anyone a warm and fuzzy feeling.

Jamie L. Maygra, Deer Island Lessons of service In the January 2014 State of the Union address there was an honorable soldier attending as a guest of the present administration – he was recognized by the Commander in Chief of all U.S. Armed Forces and a standing ovation in suited for this soldier’s devotion and service to this nation. The next day while listening to political commentary and watching the clip I had a thought (with further investigation); the three leaders on the podium have a total of eight weeks of military service – that being in the defense of this nation while in uniform. I was born in August 1949. The following are and were Presidents of the United States of America, their political party, years in office and service information: Harry S Truman (D) 1945–53; U.S. Army — World War II Dwight D Eisenhower (R) 1953–61; U.S. Army

— World War II John F Kennedy (D) 1961–63; U.S. Navy — World War II Lyndon B Johnson (D) 1963–69; U.S. Navy — World War II Richard Nixon (R) 1969–74; U.S. Navy — World War II Gerald Ford (R) 1974–77; U.S. Navy — World War II Jimmy Carter (D) 1977–81; U.S. Navy 1943–53 Ronald Regan (R) 1981–89; U.S. Army 1937–45 George H. W. Bush (R) 1989–93; U.S. Navy World War II William Clinton (D) 1993–01; George W. Bush (R) 2001–09; Texas Air Guard 1968–74 Barack Obama (D) 2009-17; I am not naïve enough to not remember that this country was vastly dif-

ferent politically, socially and economically over the last 64 years. Expectations and standards were different over that span of time, yet these individuals (Presidents) came from different political, social and economic aspects of the American life. But I think that they learned from their military service that the purpose was to work together as a unit, “to protect and defend the people of the United States of America.”

They carried that with them into their civilian lives as politicians. They learned that in time of crisis to put aside personal ambitious, personal bickering and “that there is no I in team” to address the issues of the time and work together as a unit for solutions to the benefit of all peoples of America.

James Rensch James (Jim) Rensch of St. Helens, passed away on Jan. 19, 2014, after a courageous battle with cancer. He was 64. Jim was born on Aug. 6, 1949, in St. Helens, Oregon to Joseph and Evelyn (Nelson) Rensch.

He is survived by his wife of 40 years, Pam; daughter Jennifer Perez, and son-in-law, Norberto Perez; and grandsons Samuel and Maxwell. He is also survived

Secure Storage

by his mother, Evelyn Bell; brother Jerry Rensch and sister-in law Kathy Rensch; and James Rensch motherin-law, Vera Fix; along with many nieces and nephews.

The most important thing to Jim was spending time with his family. His favorite pastimes included camping at the Wickiup Reservoir, skiing, and working in his yard with his wife, daughter, and grandsons alongside him.

He adored his new grandson Max (4 months) and shared a very special bond with his “Little Buddy” Sam (4 years).

Jim was a lifelong resident of St. Helens, graduating from St. Helens High School in 1967. He was an all-around athlete, but his

favorite sport was baseball. He was awarded a full scholarship to play baseball at the University of Illinois and was also invited to play professionally for the Cleveland Indians. In 1993 he was inducted into the St. Helens High School Hall of Fame.

Keeping with Jim’s love of sports, he began each morning simultaneously reading the sports section of the newspaper and watching sports news on television while drinking his cup of coffee. He was a huge fan of the Oregon Ducks and enjoyed coaching his daughter’s fastpitch softball team.

Jim was a carpenter by trade and homebuilder. He started Jim Rensch Construction Company in the late 1970s. He built many custom homes in Columbia County, including his and his wife’s family home in 1979, as well as his daughter’s home in 2003.

Jim’s easy going nature and trademark silent laugh will be sorely missed.

A Celebration of Life is planned for Sunday, Feb. 9, 2014, at 2 p.m. at the St. Helens Elks Lodge.

In lieu of flowers, remembrances are suggested to the American Cancer Society or the Columbia County Humane Society.

Arrangements are by the Columbia Funeral Home.

The Columbia County Rotary Children’s Fountain Project in Scappoose is beginning to make headway.

Apprentices from the construction laborers program at Northwest College of Construction lend a helping hand and pick up some course knowledge as they help with the site layout and prep work for the Scappoose fountain project.

Earlier in the week, the

school’s concrete finishing class was on site doing some estimating and project layout.

On Feb. 3, apprentices from the heavy equipment operator program were back at the Scappoose location to officially break ground on the project, which is expected to take two to three years to complete.

Instructor Montie Boyer said the time to complete

the project is based partly on when students are available to work. Boyer said students were only available for the concrete work during the fall, which does impact the timeline.

Gary Liao, a past Rotary president, said there will be an official groundbreaking ceremony soon, but the date for that has not been confirmed.

For at least one student, the fountain project really

hits home.

“I was on site yesterday with the instructor, students (four total), engineer and project manager and found out that one of the students in the class, who is currently employed as a concrete finisher with one of our school’s affiliating contractors, actually grew up and currently lives in St. Helens,” said Tim Mosterdyke, who helped with the project.

Arts and Cultural Commission to host Sweetheart Ball ST. HELENS — Spoil your significant other with an elegant evening out, including dinner, dancing and entertainment – all without leaving the county. The St. Helens Arts and Cultural Commission is hosting its Second annual Sweetheart Ball on Feb. 15.

Funds raised from the event will support public art programs and free art education workshops for children.

The Sweetheart Ball offers a romantic night out in St. Helens for Valentine’s Day. There will be a fabulous, foothappy jazz band and ballroom dancers, a gallery of artisan

chocolates, flowers and unique gifts for couples.

The Sweetheart Ball is being hosted at Buccini Hall in St. Helens from 5:30–10:30 p.m. Tickets are $85 per person and $680 for a table of eight and are St. Helens City Hall, St. Helens Public Library, and the South Columbia County Chamber of Commerce.

In addition to community projects such as free arts and crafts workshops, the annual 4th of July trashcan painting competition, and pumpkin painting for kids, the arts and cultural commission hopes the

Sweetheart Ball will raise the remainder of the funds needed for the St. Helens Gateway Sculpture Project. This art project will be installed at the Milton Creek Bridge on Columbia River Highway. The sculptures, two 22-foot tall obelisk shaped lanterns, will demarcate the highway exit to Columbia Boulevard.

The first Sweetheart Ball was held in February 2013 and raised approximately $8,500 for public art.

BOND: district considers 20-year bond for capital improvements From PAGE A1

apparatus, equipment and maintain our stations was clearly slipping,” said Tappan. “Basically we realized that our tax revenues from our fixed rate was covering personnel costs and we would need to look for other revenue to fund capital items.”

Those capital items include replacing around 20 different aging fire engines, water trucks, ambulances and rescue vehicles along with the equipment – such as self-contained breathing apparatuses – worn by fire personnel. The district is also looking into future expansions at both the Rainier and Columbia County fairgrounds stations.

Interestingly, Youngberg said those participating in

the focus group were far more concerned with the per $1,000 of assessed value rate than they were with the total amount provided by the bond.

Rather than borrowing the full $15 million at one time, the district would instead borrow amounts over three phases.

“We’re basically going to borrow $5 million in three sections,” said Youngberg.

“What we’re talking about has nothing to do with us and everything to do with service to our community.”

The public meeting to discuss the bond measure will be held on Feb. 11 beginning at 6 p.m. at the district office, 105 S. 12th St., in St. Helens.

For more information or assistance, call 503-3974800.

OIL TRAINS: safety concerns paramount From PAGE A1

years as the facility changed ownership several times.

Now, the facility is being used for storage and shipping of crude oil to Asian markets.

But concerns began rising to the top after the Port of St. Helens approved increasing the monthly number of oil trains from 14 to 34.

“We are not just subject to decisions of the railroad or Global Partners at Port Westward… and we’re not at the mercy of federal regulations,” said Whipple.

“The port has some authority because it owns the rail spur at Port Westward. It can renegotiate with Global and insist that no unsafe cars bearing unsafe cargo on less than adequate infrastructure enter port property.”

Crude oil shipments, especially those being shipped in DOT-111 model tank cars, have come under not just public scrutiny but also that of the federal government.

In late January, the National Transportation Safety Board made recommendations to both the Federal Rail Administration and the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration calling for additional safety measures to be put in place citing concerns for public safety. Those recommendations included new procedures for train handling, a review of all operating procedures, a system-wide assessment of security risks, and addressed the need for spill response plans.

“The large-scale shipment of crude oil by rail simply didn’t exist 10 years

ago and our safety regulations need to catch up with this new reality,” said NTSB Chairman Deborah A.P. Hersman. “While this energy boom is good for business, the people and the environment along rail corridors must be protected from harm.”

The NTSB also expressed concerns that because oil spill cleanup plans are not mandated, that communities – not the companies or the railroad – will bear the burden of any environmental impacts from a spill as well as responding to a derailment.

Both recommendations can be found with this story online at TheChronicleOnline.com.

The commissioners did not indicate if they intended to sign the resolution.

MARIJUANA: dispensary issue comes before council From PAGE A1

“I don’t want to be starting down a road that’s going to have a roadblock put up.

So I wanted to address those issues with you,” Vickery said.

Unfortunately, wording in the city’s municipal code has Vickery looking elsewhere in the county. The municipal code that lists general license requirements states that anyone with a business license must “conform to all federal, state, and local laws and regulations, the provisions of this chapter, and any rules adopted hereunder.”

That provision was pointed out by Mayor Scott Burge, who noted that not every city has those provisions.

To date, medical marijuana dispensaries are still illegal under federal statute, an argument that continues to be played out in court.

“Well, I guess that’s that,” said Vickery.

The idea of a marijuana dispensary certainly isn’t new to the county. It’s been tried before with some degree of success and failure alike.

In June 2011, Big River Cannabis Club shuttered its doors after being open only a few months. The closure came not from issues with city or state laws, but rather from federal statutes.

The U.S. Attorney for the district of Oregon began sending letters out to marijuana dispensaries, including Big River. Co-owner Cora Dreyer received a letter in her post office box advising that it had come to the U.S. Attorney’s attention that she was in violation of federal laws and could be prosecuted.

In April 2012, business owner Nick Clark was moving forward with opening a marijuana collective in Rainier. Clark already had a similar business in operation – Nature’s Choice Alternative Medicine – in Astoria.

Clark told Rainier council members the business would be beneficial to the community because it would provide patients with safe and legal access to medical marijuana and get it off the streets.

Clark and the city seemed to be unable to reach an

agreement and the business was shelved, although his Astoria shop is still up and running.

The latest attempt to open a dispensary was in St. Helens last September. The St. Helens City Council granted a conditional use permit to David Mighell to operate a dispensary at 1271 Columbia Blvd., the former home of Midway Electric.

It wasn’t long before Mighell’s business neighbor – Columbia River Fire & Rescue – filed an appeal, along with the St. Helen Police Department and the St. Helens School District. The appeal cited concerns with the close proximity of the dispensary with the police department and two local schools.

Although operational for a time, the dispensary eventually closed after Mighell was found to be in possession of too many plants over a specified size than was allowed by state law, along with other violations.

Vickery is now considering taking his proposal to the City of St. Helens.

This year Bethany

LIBERTY

welcomes featured quilter Maxine Albin. Maxine has quilted for 25 years and has won a few blue ribbons at the county fair. She declares her sewing room is a “happy place.” She enjoys “tweaking” quilt patterns to make them her own unique style.

Maxine says, “This is one reason quilts can take years to complete. There is no better feeling than when a quilt comes together.”

Piecing and machine appliqué are some of her favorite parts of quilting, but she loves working with the color and texture of various fabrics.

Tribe makes it three in a row Indians 4-0 in league duals

by kyle boggs sports@thechronicleonline.com

There’s no question about it – this Scappoose Indians basketball team (10-8, 3-1) knows how to win close games.

The Indians have won three straight games. All three of those games have been decided by five points or fewer.

Senior Mitch Davis’ late-game heroics gave Scappoose a road win against Seaside (9-8, 2-2) on Jan. 28. On Jan. 31, the Indians opened the second half on a 12-0 run to spark a 60-55 come-from-behind win over the Yamhill-Carlton Tigers (8-9, 1-3).

At Seaside, Davis scored an and-one with 3.2 seconds left to put Scappoose ahead of Seaside 49-46.

The ’Gulls half-court prayer at the buzzer went unanswered, giving the Indians a victory.

“It was a battle and every league game is going to be like that. Every team is tough in league, so getting back-to-back road wins is a huge testament to our kids’ work ethic, execution and composure under pressure,” said Scappoose coach Rahim Tufts.

The Indians held a modest lead throughout the game until the fourth quarter, when the Seagulls briefly took the lead. With under a minute to play, Tribe junior Chase Johnson hit a baseline jumper to put the Indians up by two points. Seaside answered with a drive along the baseline for a basket with 13 seconds left.

That set the stage for Davis’ heroics.

Tufts called timeout and drew up an isolation play for Davis. The senior guard beat his man at the top of the key and rose up for a floater just inside the free-throw line. The shot went in, he was fouled and he sunk the free throw.

Davis finished with a game-high 19 points and Johnson scored 15.

Tufts was pleased with the way his team handled a tough road environment down the stretch in a close ball game.

“Our guys played physical, our guys competed and our guys had great composure when the game was tight. Cool, calm and collect-

points, but stormed out of the locker room to score the first 12 points of the third quarter. Johnson had 10 of his 23 points in the third period.

BANKS — The Scappoose Indians made sure they’d enter their final Cowapa League dual meet of the season undefeated by going 2-0 in a double dual meet at Banks High School on Jan. 31.

The Indians easily beat the Yamhill-Carlton Tigers 62-9.

The Tribe’s match against the Banks Braves was much closer. In fact, both Banks and Scappoose tallied seven victories. However, five of the Indians’ seven wins came by fall compared to five victories by decision for the Braves. That led to a 41-27 Scappoose victory.

Senior Isaiah Goodrich improved to 30-1 on the season with two firstround pins. Wrestling at 182 pounds against Banks, Goodrich won in just 35 seconds. He wrestled at 195 pounds against Yamhill-Carlton, a match he won in 1:03.

Freshman Colton Bush won twice by fall as well. The 113 pounder pinned both of his opponents in the second round.

Senior 152 pounder Wade Nelson won both of his matches by technical fall. He beat his Banks opponent 16-1 and ran the score to 16-0 against Y-C. Senior Hunter Hoyt was 2-0 on the evening to move to 23-1 for the season. He pinned Banks’ 145-pound wrestler in the second round. Hoyt earned a 13-0 major decision against Y-C. Like Goodrich and Hoyt, sophomore Braxton Sue has still lost only one bout this season. Scappoose’s 106 pounder won by forfeit against Banks and pinned his Tiger foe in 1:05. He is now 29-1 this season.

Against Y-C, it was Johnson tak-

Senior Night win moves St. Helens girls to 6-0 by kyle boggs sports@thechronicleonline.com

ST. HELENS — Between them, they’ve earned eight All-Northwest Oregon Conference honors. This year, they’ve now helped their team rack up six straight wins without a single loss.

So it was really no surprise that this group of St. Helens High School senior swimmers had helped give their team a 41-21 lead after four events before splashing out of the waterslide at Eisenschmidt Pool on Senior Night.

The Lion girls improved to 6-0 on Jan. 30 with a decisive 108-62 win over the Liberty Falcons. That sets up a battle of two unbeaten squads in the dual meet finale, Feb. 4 at Sandy. The Pioneers are favored to win the NWOC and should be

Meanwhile, the Falcons are the favorites to win the NWOC title on the boys side of things. They beat the Lions, 106-64.

The SHHS girls won seven events against Liberty.

Of those seven wins, two of them were 1-2-3 finishes. Seniors Tori Edwards, Johanna Parkhurst and Lexi Normine swept the top three spots in the 500-yard freestyle, with Edwards setting a new personal record in a time of 6:13.

Parkhurst, a newcomer to the event, finished in 6:19 and Normine swam it in 7:09.

Edwards and Parkhurst both added second-place finishes in their other individual events. Edwards made up a big deficit in the final 25 yards of the 200-yard freestyle, but finished .78 seconds away from the win.

Parkhurst was a part of the other Lion sweep. She finished second to junior Brook Hopkins in the 200 individual medley, with senior Ashley Stewart taking third.

“Tori and JoJo were the two stars of the meet,” said St. Helens coach Bill Rash.

However, when Edwards, Parkhurst and Stewart were addressing the St. Helens Sports Booster Club the following morning, they credited Hopkins and junior Jackie Prevish with being the standSee SHHS, Page A14

The St. Helens Lions (312, 1-5) snapped an 11-game losing streak with a 77-57 victory over the Putnam Kingsmen (1-14, 0-6) on Jan. 28.

St. Helens used a 30-point second quarter to break open the game against Putnam.

St. Helens held just a three-point lead at the end of the first quarter, but that gap ballooned to 20 points at halftime.

Four Lions scored in double figures in the win.

Senior Tanner Long and junior Justin Helgerson scored 17 apiece, senior Corey West had 15 and senior Cody Teyema had 12.

West was the Lions’ goto scorer early on, but foul trouble forced him to sit a good portion of the first half.

He was nearly perfect on the night otherwise, making all four of his field goal attempts and draining 7-of-8 freethrow attempts. He also had six rebounds.

Helgerson helped fill the team’s void in the post when West went to the bench, as he pulled down 11 rebounds to go along with his 17 points.

The Lions were able to get plenty of open looks right at the rim in transition thanks to their good defensive effort. That was evident by their field goal percentage: St. Helens shot 77 percent on two-point attempts, missing only seven of its 30 shots inside the 3-point line.

Long finished the game with 17 points, six rebounds and five assists.

The Lions waited until the third quarter for their scoring burst against the No. 9 Sandy Pioneers (14-2, 5-1) on Jan. 31. That’s when Teyema caught fire from 3-point

range. The senior guard made 4-of-6 3-point tries in the quarter.

His hot shooting helped the Lions trim a 16-point halftime deficit to six points at one moment in the third quarter. The Lions got within 43-37 and had an opportunity to trim that deficit even further. The Lions scored a basket and were fouled. The Pioneers were then whistled for a technical foul, giving St. Helens three free throws and the ball. The Lions couldn’t capitalize on the opportunity and could not get any closer the rest of the way.

Sandy’s length helped the Pioneers control the majority of the rebounds in the game.

Lions drop dual to Falcons, finish 6th in Milwaukie by kyle boggs sports@thechronicleonline.com

The Jan. 30 dual meet between the Liberty Falcons and St. Helens Lions went back and forth down to the very last match, but the Falcons strung together three straight falls late in the match to take a 39-29 victory.

Two of those three falls came within the final five seconds of the match. The Lions’ last home meet of the season ended on a positive note for the home team though, as junior Mario Olmedo scored two points in the final seconds for a 6-5 win in the heavyweight bout.

St. Helens freshman Myles Terry improved to 27-0 on the season.

He earned a 14-8 decision in the 152-pound match.

His coach, J.R. Jackson, said he had one of the toughest opponents.

“Cody [Jackson], Myles and Haidon [Allen] had their three toughest kids and we won all three,” Jackson said.

Allen, a freshman, beat his opponent with a 20-5 technical fall in the 113-pound match. Jackson, a junior, pinned his opponent in the second round at 126 pounds.

KYLE BOGGS / The Chronicle St. Helens freshman Haidon Allen takes down his Liberty opponent last week.

Immediately following Jackson’s pin, sophomore Michael Bowen bull-rushed his 132-pound opponent and pinned him in a quick 18-second match.

Senior Zilen Nichols added an-

other pin at 170 pounds.

After that came the three pins, but Jackson was impressed with how his wrestlers competed in those matches. In the 182-, 195- and 220-pound weight classes, the Lions have two

girls basketball

freshmen and a sophomore.

Freshmen Zach Shawgo and Colton Albertson both held on until the bitter end.

Jackson said Shawgo was giving up several pounds to his 195-pound opponent, so he altered his strategy for the match. It paid off and he was trailing by only one point entering the final round.

“Shawgo impressed a lot of people,” Jackson said.

In the end, the Lions needed a few more points in a few other matches throughout the meet.

“If a few things go a different way, we’re 5-0 instead of 4-1,” Jackson said. Still, he said he was happy with the effort. “Our upper weights fought hard. All the kids wrestled really well. The kids are getting better each week.”

On Feb. 1, the Lions went to Milwaukie High School for what turned out to be an 11-team tournament.

Heading into the event, Jackson said he was under the impression there would be only six teams there. The five additional teams were all of top quality, and the Lions ended in sixth place. Glencoe won the tournament.

Allen had the best outing for the Lions, finishing second in the

113-pound bracket. He was forced to injury default in the championship bout after being slammed to the mat in the semifinals and suffering bruised ribs.

His teammate, freshman Elias Field, finished sixth in the same weight class.

Coincidentally, Bowen suffered a neck injury in the match immediately following Allen’s on the same mat. He finished sixth at 132 pounds after also injury defaulting.

Cody Jackson took third in the 126-pound bracket.

Olmedo and Albertson both finished fourth in their weight classes.

Nichols added a sixth-place finish at 170.

The Lions were without Terry and fellow freshman Tyler Cooper, who were nursing nagging injuries.

“Our kids wrestled well. It was a tough tournament. I think if we’re healthy, we finish third,” J.R. Jackson said.

St. Helens goes to Sherwood on Feb. 6 for a dual meet against the Bowmen. It is set to begin at 7 p.m.

New offense shows promise SHS record almost broken The St. Helens Lions (014, 0-6) dropped a home game to the league-leading Rex Putnam Kingsmen (8-7, 6-0) on Jan. 25 by a score of 51-25.

On Jan. 31, the Lions played on the road against the Sandy Pioneers (9-6, 4-2). Sandy won the game, 47-40, but St. Helens coach Billy McKinney said he saw encouraging signs from his team, which employed a new offense during the week.

The Lions reduced their turnovers to 14, when they had been averaging in the 20s. Guards Nicole Harcourt and Rianne Tupper combined to score 26 points and were a threat to score regardless of what defense Sandy was in.

Both Harcourt and Tupper made three 3-pointers. Harcourt, a senior, finished with 15 points and Tupper, a junior scored 11.

In the second half, the Pi-

oneers employed a box-andone defense to slow down Tupper. But all that did was free up Harcourt.

“Nicole picked it right up.

[Sandy’s coach] had to call timeout, he didn’t know what to do,” McKinney said.

McKinney said the newlyinstalled offense is designed to limit turnovers.

“We’re beating ourselves with turnovers. This should limit the turnovers, keep the games closer,” he said. “If we execute our offense right, we should be able to pick up two wins this week.”

St. Helens hosted Liberty (5-11, 3-3) on Feb. 4 and is home again on Feb. 7 against Parkrose (0-13, 0-6).

ASTORIA — Sam Herscovitz won two individual events and anchored the Scappoose Indians to a win in the 400-yard freestyle relay during a double dual meet against the Astoria Fishermen and Banks Braves on Jan. 30.

The Tribe boys barely could field a relay team, as they only had four boys at the meet.

“Fortunately Cody Zelmer was able to battle his illness and allow our boys to swim two relays. Without him we would have been down to three boys and he swam two personal bests along the way,” said Tribe coach David Richmond.

Herscovitz handled the bulk of the scoring for the Indian boys, who lost their

dual to the Astoria Fishermen 82-36. Banks did not have a boys team. The senior won the 100-yard butterfly and the backstroke.

His times were 1:01.99 and 1:03.28, respectively.

“Sam Herscovitz came within a half-second of the school record in the 100 butterfly. He’s getting better and better each time he swims it,” Richmond said. “He’s been working his tail off and takes feedback here and there that helps him get better and better. He’s got a great shot at it and I think he’ll get it.”

Ryan Rafferty holds the school record in the butterfly. He swam it in 1:01.49 in 2011.

Junior Stefany Alvarez won the 50-yard freestyle to lead the girls team. Scappoose beat Banks 108-20 but dropped an 86-62 meet against Astoria.

Sophomore Kayla Miller

was the runner-up in the 100yard freestyle.

Richmond said sophomore Macy Gray also swam well.

“Macy Gray had a big meet, going for four personal bests in her four events. She took 35 seconds off her 500 time and another three seconds off in her backstroke,” he said.

Next for Scappoose is the Cowapa League Championships at Eisenschmidt Pool in St. Helens on Feb. 7 starting at 4:15 p.m.

Richmond said he thinks his team will be swimming even faster come Friday.

“We’re going to be focusing in on tapering well and fine-tuning starts and turns.

This is the best time of the season. It’s always exciting when you reach February.

We’re looking to really close strong here the last couple of weeks,” he said.

SHHS: Zartman, Sakurani finish 1-2 in the boys’ breaststroke From PAGE A13 out performers of the meet.

Both Hopkins and Prevish won a pair of events each. In addition to her IM win, Hopkins also won the backstroke with a time of 1:12.

Prevish’s victories came

in the 100-yard freestyle and the breaststroke, with times of 1:00 and 1:18, respectively.

The Lions also won the medley relay and the 400yard freestyle relay.

Rash said juniors Jonathan Prevish and Dillon Swatski

took the starring roles for the boys. Prevish was second in the 100-yard freestyle and the 100-yard butterfly – two events that run back-to-back.

He swam the butterfly in 1:01, then turned around and turned in a 59-second 100yard freestyle.

Swatski was the runner-up in the individual medley and took third in the backstroke.

Senior Jacob Zartman came up with the only win on the day for the boys. He won the 100-yard breaststroke with a time of 1:18. Finishing second was St. Helens senior

Atsushi Sakurani in a time of 1:20.

Now the Lions will go on the road for their first meet outside of St. Helens all season. It just so happens to be their final dual meet of the season. Finishing a perfect 7-0 will be a challenge for

the girls, as Sandy is a very talented team.

“They have a group of girls that swim for the Mt. Hood Club team, which is one of the strongest in the state,” Rash said.

The meet began after The Chronicle’s deadline.

Sauvie Island Waterfowl Harvest Summaries

few weeks should really only be a mile or two of running if you haven’t run before. As you get better and better, you can increase those distances.

As with any training plan, it is vital that you get your rest days in also.

A good rule to follow when deciding how much you should run based on the length of your training plan, is to simply take the percentage of time left. For example, if your training plan is four months long, and you are going to be running a 15K, at the halfway point of your training plan (two months) you should be at about half of the distance you are ultimately going to run. At the threequarter mark, you should be at three quarters of your total distance, and so on. Obviously this will fluctuate based on the individual runner, but it’s a good guide to follow.

Another very good point to consider is making sure that before you get to race day, you put in a few runs that are equal to the distance you will be running on the actual day. Yes, this means that if your goal is to run a 15K, you will run it as part of your training plan. It may only be a few times, but it will be important for your body to understand the stress on race day and that is only possible if you push it.

The bottom line on any training plan is that you actu-

Yes, most people no matter what shape they are in, can physically go out and get through a race. Even a marathon. But your recovery, your safety, and well-being, are often jeopardized without a training plan.

Get a friend, make a plan, and stick to it. And good luck at your next race!

Simon says: Run with a plan runners nowadays. How hardcore you are going to go will determine what you need.

For most of us however, the most important thing is shoes. I cannot stress enough how important this is. Not only do you need a pair that is going to be comfortable, you also need one isn’t going to break down too easily because that will lead to injuries or more stress placed upon your knees, hips and other areas of your body.

Think back to the days when you used to sleep on a mattress that wasn’t that great. You didn’t have a very good night’s sleep. The same goes with shoes.

Another thing you can get, if you have a smart phone, is one of the mobile running apps. There are some fantastic ones out there, and I personally use miCoach from adidas, and Runkeeper.

Nearly every app will have GPS and some sort of training program.

Now you’re ready to run, and the task now is to get a good planning routine. Again, whether you are starting out at a small distance, or are going for a long run, your general mentality towards the race should be as follows.

Start with small distances and gradually build up over the course of your training plan. If you are running a 15K, and have three or four months to prepare, the first

fitness tips

Today we’re going to talk about planning for a run. I don’t mean just a jog around the neighborhood, but rather an actual event, many of which are offered in Portland SImon Date starting in the next few months.

A favorite of mine has always been the Shamrock Run. Typically held around St. Patrick’s Day, this event has something for everyone.

For the kids there is a 1K walk. If you’re a beginner runner there is a 5K run. As you progress in your running ability there are 10K and 15K offerings. For those feeling a little more adventurous there are marathons offered in the fall, and some great longer distance runs in the summertime.

For the purpose of this article I’m going to assume that the goal you choose is one that will be challenging for you as an individual. Regardless of where you start, you’re planning mentality should be the same.

The first thing you’re going to need is the correct gear. You only need to go into one of the large retailers to find out the enormous amount of gear available to

TRIBE: ‘D’ sparks victory

girls basketball

Scappoose throttles Y-C

From PAGE A13 “Coach got us fired up talking to us. We weren’t being tough enough,” Johnson said. “We really wanted to get on a three-game streak.”

Johnson had help from a pair of Tribe guards on the offensive end. Davis scored 15 points and junior Jacob Wendelschafer had 11. Davis also pulled down six rebounds.

Offense, however, wasn’t the biggest piece of the equation in Tufts’ eyes. He attributed the turnaround more to his team’s defensive presence in the final two quarters.

“In the first half we felt like our defensive focus and energy was lacking. We were stuck watching the ball in both man and zone, and we weren’t active and we weren’t talking,” Tufts said. “At halftime we challenged them to step it up on the defensive end of the floor, to talk more, to play more physical and to have more energy. Kids responded big time. Players on the floor and players on the bench were all talking and pumped up.

“It helped we were hitting shots too. Kids executed flawlessly in that third quarter. We got great shots and shared the ball,” he said.

It helps when you have two reliable scorers like Johnson and Davis. In the Tribe’s four league games, neither player has scored fewer than 15 points in any of them.

“We’re very confident.

Him and me stay after practice and we take a lot of shots,” Johnson said.

The Scappoose Indians (8-9, 2-2) split their two games last week, falling on the road to the No. 3 Seaside Seagulls (15-2, 4-0) 60-22 on Jan. 28, then quickly recovering to hand the Yamhill-Carlton Tigers (0-18, 0-4) a 60-7 pasting.

This week the Indians are on the road for both of their games. They played at Astoria (6-12, 2-2) on Feb. 4 and go to Tillamook (3-14, 1-3) for a 5:30 p.m. game on Feb. 7.
