County updates waste management ordinance for landlords BY SHARI PHIEL The Chronicle

Following up on discussions begun in late February, the Columbia County Board of Commissioners is revising sections of the county’s solid waste ordinance relating to individuals who self haul. At the heart of the issue is the regulation of landlords who collect and dispose of trash from their tenants. County Commissioner Henry Heimuller said the ordinance is actually just one of 10 to 12 solid waste ordinance sections needing revision. The county’s solid waste plan was originally adopted in 1977 and last updated in 2010. The board received both written and oral testimony at its Feb. 20 and March 3 regular meetings, and then left the record open for written testimony until its April 3 meeting. Those submitting testimony (written or oral) included local landlord Will Kessi Jr. and the Oregon Refuse and Recycling Association. Todd Dugdale, director of Land Development Services, was directed to review similar solid waste ordinances from other counties. See WASTE, Page A3 Correction Oops, we goofed. In the April 10 issue of The Chronicle, the story about Houlton Bakery’s reopening incorrectly listed the business owner as Max Huck, which should have been Matt Huck. Our sincere apologies for any inconvenience or confusion this may have caused.

Muchas Gracias restaurant robbed at gunpoint BY SHARI PHIEL The Chronicle

ST. HELENS — For one clerk at the Muchas Gracias restaurant at 155 N. Columbia River Hwy. in St. Helens, April 13 is a day that won’t soon be forgotten. Just before 2 a.m., three men wearing hoods and bandanas walked into the restaurant, pulled out two handguns and aimed them at the clerk. The men demanded money from the cash register and then fled the restaurant with an undisclosed sum of money. The armed robbery only took seconds but was captured in its entirely by the restaurant’s video security system. St. Helens Police said the events captured on surveillance video may

The Muchas Gracias restaurant on Highway 30 was robbed at gunpoint in the early morning hours of April 13.

Flames gut St. Helens home ST. HELENS — An early morning fire left one home destroyed and a neighboring home with heat damage. Columbia River Fire & Rescue received a call just after 6 a.m. on April 12 reporting a residential fire at 455 S. Fourth St., in St. Helens. When crews arrived, they found the older splitlevel home fully engulfed in flames, which reached as high as 30 feet. Crews immediately set to work fighting the fire. While firefighters were able to keep the home’s adjacent garage and neighboring homes from catching fire, those structures did experience heat damage. According to Fire Chief Jay Tappan, the adjacent home in particular incurred significant radiant heat damage to the vinyl siding and exposed wood structure, but remained habitable by the residents. The fire was declared under control after about 45 minutes and no injuries were reported. Tappan said the home was not occupied at the time of the fire; however,

there are normally two or three residents occupying the home, which he categorized as a family rental. The cause of the fire is under investigation with assistance from the State Fire Marshal’s Office. “We really don’t know what the cause of the fire was yet. We’re meeting on [April 16] with the fire investigator to review the findings we’ve got,” said Tappan. “This is one of those fires where you’ve got a

house that’s really burned out and there isn’t any evidence of accelerants or hinky activity.” Tappan said it would likely be through a process of elimination that the cause of the fire is ultimately determined. “When you look at the type of construction and the contents of the home, it’s doable,” he added. The home is owned by Jean and Marvin King, of Rainier, and is currently rent-

ed to their daughter, Debra King, and another renter, Matthew Myers. Debra’s 17-year-old son, Marvin, is also a resident on weekends. Disaster action team volunteers from the American Red Cross assisted two adults, one child and one pet affected by the fire. Red Cross provided food, clothing, medication and information about disaster mental health and disaster health services support. Fire personnel worked for

about three hours to ensure all the hot spots were extinguished. Preliminary damage estimates are estimated to be about $100,000 for the home and contents. “They were adequately insured, so at least that’s good,” said Tappan. CRF&R responded with two fire engines, a rescue unit, an ambulance, and several support vehicles. A total of 14 fire personnel were on scene with no reported injuries.

Highway 30 accident leaves one dead, two others in critical condition Oregon State Police is continuing its investigation into the cause of fatal accident on Highway 30 just west of Clatskanie. The two-vehicle crash happened shortly after 5:30 p.m., on Sunday, April 14, at Bradley Hill, which is about 13 miles to the west of Clatskanie. The accident sent seven individuals, including four juveniles, to several nearby hospitals. One person died that same night after arriving at a Portland-area hospital, at least two others are in critical condition and closed the highway for more than three hours. According to OSP Lt. Duane Stanton, Lucas William Brown, 36, of Longview, Wash., was driving a 1998 Volkswagen Jetta eastbound on Highway 30 near milepost 75. While

negotiating a curve, Brown reportedly traveled across the double solid centerline and collided head-on with a 2003 Mini Cooper driven by Kimberly Anne Sultan, 42, of Astoria. Sultan was traveling in the left westbound lane. After the impact, the Volkswagen came to rest on its top off the highway and the Mini Cooper came to rest along the right shoulder and fog line. Vehicle debris was scattered across the highway. Brown was transported by LifeFlight helicopter to Legacy Emanuel Hospital but was pronounced dead upon arrival. Firefighters extricated the occupants from the Mini Cooper. Sultan was transported by ambulance to St. John Medical Center in Longview. She was

later transferred to Legacy Emanuel Medical Center and is in critical condition. Passengers in the Jetta included Brown’s two children, identified as Noah Waite-Brown, age 8, and Kane G. Brown, age 7. The older child was transported by LifeFlight to Legacy

Emanuel Center. Noah Waite-Brown was listed in critical condition at Randall Children’s Hospital at Legacy Emanuel. Kane Brown was transported by Medix Ambulance to Columbia Memorial Hospital in Astoria. He was transferred later to Oregon Health & Science

University in Portland. His injuries were non-lifethreatening. Passengers in the Mini Cooper were transported to Columbia Memorial Hospital with minor injuries. They are identified as right front passenger Ivan Sultan, 44; and rear seat passengers Keanu Sultan, 16, and Emily R. Lloyd, 22 months. All occupants in the Mini Cooper were using safety restraints. Safety restraint use by the occupants in the Volkswagen is pending confirmation. OSP troopers from the Astoria and St. Helens offices responded and are involved with the ongoing investigation. Trooper Jessica Spurlock is the lead investigator. Knappa Fire District, Medix Ambulance, and ODOT assisted.

Weekend fire destroys rural Scappoose home SCAPPOOSE — Firefighters from Scappoose Rural Fire District and Tualatin Valley Fire & Rescue were called to a rural home on NW Dixie Mountain Road around 3:30 p.m. on April 14. Upon arrival, crews found the 1,800 square foot home completely engulfed in flames. The rural location of the home made the fire more difficult to put out as there was no access to water hydrants. Instead, firefighting crews relied on water tenders to douse the flames. The home was a complete loss. Also responding were crews from Washington County Fire District 2, Banks Fire Department and Hillsboro Fire and Rescue. The residents were not home at the time. While no one was injured, several dogs inside the home died. Investigators were still processing the scene on April 15.

Open house for Cornelius Pass Military News Road safety improvements The public is invited to an open house on April 16 from 5:30–7 p.m. to learn about safety improvements that are being considered for Multnomah County’s section of NW Cornelius Pass Road. The open house will be held at the Skyline Grange at 11275 NW Skyline Blvd., between NW McNamee and NW Newberry Roads. The event will include a staff presentation at 6 p.m. with time before and after for the public to discuss the project with staff. The purpose of the meeting is to provide information on the project and gather public input on safety improvements being considered. The Oregon Legislature allocated $9.5 million for Multnomah County to make improvements to its section of the road between U.S. Highway 30 and the county line south of NW Kaiser Road. Several safety improvements are being studied and the county is seeking public input before improvements are selected for final design. Design will take place in 2013 and 2014. Construction is

anticipated in 2014 and 2015. Options being studied include improvements at: • NW Skyline Boulevard intersection (including a roundabout option); • NW Sheltered Nook intersection; • NW Kaiser Road intersection; • Several curves to improve sight distance; • Various locations for illumination and guardrail improvements. Several of these improvements were recommended in a recent road safety evaluation. The evaluation and other project information are available at www.multco.us/ roads/cornelius-pass-roadsafety-improvements. The open house will include maps of the study areas and improvements under study. Multnomah County maintains this section of NW Cornelius Pass Road and 300 miles of roads and bridges. For information, contact corneliuspass@multco.us or project manager Sandra Prock, P.E., at 503-988-5050, Ext. 29627.

ROBBERY: three suspects still missing From PAGE A1

“We know how much they took but we aren’t releasing that at this time,” said St. Helens Police Chief Terry Moss. “We don’t usually disclose that information.” One of the men was wearing a heavy hooded jacket, a white ball cap and a purple bandana over his face. He was armed with a silver, semi-automatic handgun. The second suspect is wearing a dark colored hooded jacket with white vertical stripes and white trim around the hood. He was armed with a black semi-automatic handgun. The third suspect is wearing a long sleeved denim shirt, a black beanie cap and black bandana over his face.

Moss described the robbery, and the suspects’ actions in putting the weapons in the clerk’s face as disturbing. “This had to have been terrifying for the staff,” he said. “The first time I saw [the video] my heart started thumping and I wasn’t even there.” The Muchas Gracias restaurant in St. Helens, which is open 24 hours a day, is part of a franchise chain of fast-food style restaurants operating across Oregon and Washington. This is not the first franchise location to be robbed. In April 2012, a Hillsboro man was arrested after using a gun to steal several hundred dollars from a Muchas Gracias location in that area. And just a few days ago,

a Muchas Gracias location in Longview, Wash., was robbed by a single man wearing a “ghost face” mask and carrying a black semi-automatic type handgun. Police do not have any information linking this robbery to the St. Helens event. So far, this kind of robbery is not in the norm for St. Helens. “The City of St. Helens doesn’t experience this very often at all,” said Moss. “This is very rare.” Police have received dozens of leads and tips, all of which are being followed up on. Anyone with additional information is encouraged to contact the St. Helens Police Department at 503-3971521.

WASTE: staff recommends several changes “We were asked to do a survey of other counties’ solid waste ordinances, with respect to this issue of persons and activities regulated, which is another way of saying we wanted to look at those provisions in other county ordinances dealing with so-called self hauling,” said Dugdale. Dugdale added the issue originally came up or year or more ago after an area landlord began collecting solid waste from tenants. “Eight out of the nine counties we looked at expressly prohibited that activity,” said Dugdale. But Kessi said that was not enough reason to pass a similar prohibition in Columbia County. ‘I’m sure those counties have franchises that are very interested in making sure no one else can haul the garbage but themselves,” said Kessi. “I’ve been a landlord for 20 years. I take great pride in my units and this is one very good way that I can control how my units look and how the garbage is getting taken care of.” Kessi he did not understand why this issue has suddenly come to the forefront of county business. It doesn’t appear to be a particular issue in the county. Heimuller said there has only been one landlord that collected trash from tenants that presented an issue when that waste wasn’t disposed of properly or in a timely manner. “Waste Management wants it to be disallowed,” said Heimuller. “That’s where it comes from. Of course, if I were Waste Management or Hudson’s, I would be concerned if there were a number of them.” In a staff report dated March 27, staff proposed several changes to the existing ordinance based on the department’s review of similar ordinances from the nine other counties. One of the sections suggested for revision included section 1.05, and provides for a new definition of “generator” as a person who

Paving project begins on Highway 30 School board candidates COLUMBIA CITY — A contractor working for the Oregon Department of Transportation began a paving project the week of April 15 on a 5.5-mile stretch of U.S. 30 between Columbia City and Jones Road (mileposts 31.7 to 37.2). ODOT said the pavement on U.S. 30 in this section is deteriorating and in need of rehabilitation. Grinding and paving the highway will repair and preserve the roadway and provide a smoother riding surface. As part of the project, the current striping will be replaced with durable thermoplastic striping. The contractor expects to finish the project by the end of May.

Reps Whisnant and Witt introduce bill to provide more Oregon jobs Legislation introduced by Rep. Gene Whisnant (R-Sunriver) and Rep. Brad Witt (DClatskanie) received a hearing in the House Business and Labor Committee. HB 3315 will help prevent abuses of the H2B visa program and will provide more jobs for Oregonians. “I have worked with the Oregon Employment Department on this issue since the major

abuses occurred in Oregon in 2009 using the Federal stimulus funds to employ foreign workers and not Oregonians,” said Whisnant. Previous reports estimate at least $7 million in federal stimulus monies intended to provide jobs to unemployed Oregon works instead went to paying wages for more than 250 foreign workers.

Witt testified, “At a time of record unemployment, when federal stimulus dollars were intended to hire locally unemployed Oregonians, when job openings in other fields were attracting tens if not hundreds of local job applicants, not a single Oregonian was hired for any of the 254 jobs. Not one. The H2B abuses took away high paying jobs from many

Public health offering earthquake toolkits We have all been warned that an earthquake is imminent in the Pacific Northwest, with the potential for causing short to long-term power outages and shortages in food, water and health care. Anne Parrott, emergency preparedness coordinator for the Public Health Foundation of Columbia County, is helping to make planning for an earthquake or other natural disaster easier for local families. Parrott, along with colleagues from Clackamas and Washington county public health departments have developed a preparedness toolkit, “Preparing Together: A Discussion Guide and Toolkit,” with “everything a

family needs to know about preparing for the aftermath of a natural disaster,” said Parrott. The kit is now available for checkout in the St. Helens Public Library. Parrott said the kit includes handouts and brochures that can be copied or downloaded from the CD ROM, which focus on easy ways to build an emergency kit over 24 weeks. It also has evacuation and shelter-inplace information, complete lists of materials that should be kept on hand for use during a disaster and contact information for the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the Red Cross. “We wanted to make this toolkit for a family who

wants to learn how to be prepared for a disaster,” said Parrott. She said it is also useful if someone wants to do a community presentation to a church group or neighborhood group, said Parrott, and so it includes a CD ROM which has two Powerpoint presentations. She said the technical language is toned down and the advice is practical, for average families with average means. The toolkit was presented in January to about 40 community members and emergency service providers at Springlake Community in Scappoose. Parrott will make the kit available through libraries in the county this spring.

Oregonians who would have accepted these jobs.” Oregon’s federal elected officials are working on this issue and the federal government must find a total solution with Oregon and other states to completely prevent all H2B visa abuses. HB 3315 places in law the Oregon Employment Department’s recommended actions to address this issue.

The Morrow Pacific project will bring new jobs along the river and new opportunities to Columbia County. It will help revitalize this community so our kids can stay and raise their families here.

Paul Langner Teevin Bros., Rainier

People in communities across Oregon are voicing their support for the Morrow Pacific project. Morrow Pacific is a coal export project that will bring opportunity to Columbia County while protecting the environment. Every aspect of the project has been designed to eliminate dust and spillage, and reduce diesel emissions. For example, the low-sulfur coal will be shipped in covered barges to Port Westward, where it will be transferred to oceangoing vessels through an enclosed transloader. The coal will not come ashore, and no storage facilities will be needed in Columbia County.

The project will also create much-needed family-wage jobs with benefits in Columbia County, and pay more than $1.6 million annually in county fees and taxes.* At full capacity, the project will make an annual voluntary contribution of about $800,000 to local schools. Supporting the economy while protecting the environment is part of our commitment to doing business the Oregon way. And it’s why so many Columbia County residents support the Morrow Pacific project.

Letters Rainer council lauded As one who has been regularly involved as an educator and volunteer in efforts to improve the quality of life in the Rainier area since 1970, I applaud the Rainier City Council’s recent decision to oppose the expansion (rezoning) of the Port Westward industrial land for a coal terminal that would entail massive rail shipments through Rainier. The council correctly foresees that the quality of life and the economic conditions in Rainier will be adversely affected by the Port’s extreme expansion plans. Rainier’s situation is such that a moderate use of the existing railroad infrastructure for a limited number of short train passages per day, is the only appropriate choice for city and county (and port) planners. Unit trains of coal and/or petroleum, each comprised of 125 or more cars and measuring oneand-a-third miles long, will not allow the city to function effectively and safely without millions of dollars being spent for redesigning and rebuilding city and rail infrastructure, resulting in the uprooting and removal of dozens of businesses, families and city services. Since the Port of St. Helens board and some of our county officials seem determined to roll over our town without even conducting a decent economic impact study in their frantic efforts to join the coal-and-oil export craze, it is heartening that our city leaders have the courage to insist that Rainier must not be “collateral damage” from this wholly misguided and foolish enterprise. Darrel Whipple, Rainier For the community and the children I am writing to let those of you who do not know yet that my wife, Traci Brumbles, is running for the St. Helens school board position no. 3. Traci is a very busy women, but agreed to

run because several people asked her to (the only reason anyone should run for any office), and after attending a couple of meetings, she felt that she could help the community and the kids. Traci is a hard working, taxpaying businesswoman and mother of four. She has a history of volunteering for the school and the church. She has volunteered to help at the schools since 1994, everything from class parties to the concession stands. At church she has sang for many years, she was a deaconess for eight years, she was co-chair of the education committee for four years, taught Sunday school for approximately 11 years. She has always given of herself, asking nothing in return. I am lucky to have known her for over 34 years and that she is my wife and mother to my children. Traci and I own the Rainier Liquor Store and have for over 12 years. She became the liquor agent in Rainier beating out quite a bit of competition in February 2001. Because of her outstanding customer relations and wise business choices, the store has grown in sales every year since we have owned it, almost 600 percent since 2001. I believe that with Traci’s business experience and experience in running a house full of children, she will bring frugality and more common sense to the school board. Having to deal with OLCC over the years and occasionally with our legislators will be a help in preventing frictions with the other people on the board, hopefully making meetings more constructive. As a mother and an American, Traci has expressed her concern for indoctrination techniques being used on children at schools all over the nation and wants to make sure that it doesn’t end up here. In her own words, teachers should teach math, science, etc., parents should be responsible for what ideology that their kids are exposed

to. She is especially concerned with the common core agenda at the present moment. Because of her volunteering so much at the schools over the years, having well over 100,000 customers every year and of our children playing sports, Traci knows a lot of the parents and have heard some of their concerns, she is in touch with the community and will be approachable, which has not always been the case with the school board members. She has lived in Columbia County for most of her 46 years, so she is interested in seeing the schools here doing well. To sum it up, Traci will be frugal with taxpayer money, she will be approachable, she will fight any and all indoctrination, she will be dedicated to doing the best job she can for the community and the children, she is beholding to no one and has no ulterior motives. The only benefit for her to serve is to make our schools better for your children and the one that we still have in school. Please vote for Traci on May 5, it will be a vote for the kids. Traci does not have a Facebook page, but the Rainier Liquor Store does; anyone with questions should refer them to there. Although Traci is quite often on the go, she will get to the questions as soon as she can, please be patient as she still has to make a living. Thank you for reading this and remember, vote for Traci Brumbles. Chris Brumbles, Deer Island So to speak Oh how many times we hear this term, coal trains. As I watch highway news reports from the Portland ODOT cams I wonder. Has anyone taken note of just how we humans have bettered ourselves? Each year we’re told there is a new, amazing fuel-efficient vehicle to travel our nonefficient highways. I understand it is hard to fathom our present way to answers most questions

these day’s. Some such as the on going of over thirty years studies to again, bridge the Columbia River. This got me thinking. It’s the same as an hourglass forcing traffic over a bridge through one city into other jammed city’s traffic. To me this would make better sense to build a bridge down river to divide traffic before it enters the cities. So to have coal trains do much the same, I would think we could all understand this dilemma. Our environment has succumbed to still one other item than coal. Insecticides with weed killers are killing the Monarch butterflies. The milkweed is what the Monarch larva feed from. I’m not saying we’re in dire need of the coal trains, but why not cash in on their existence. Because we have in-

Dave Coverly

vested in the cleanliness of keeping our lawns weed free. With insecticides by thousands of gallons along with keeping weed free the vegetable truck farms. Spraying along all rood sides have doubled the endangering of the environment. More questions we should be asking our selves; what are insecticides doing that coal could make different for the Butterflies? As the Monarch has diminished by 1/3 as we’re killed out most their habitats. Look at this in this way; if mankind from feed from vegetable there is a need for pollination, bees and butterflies. Harvesting the milkweeds sap would make a marketing new produce. Doing so will enable its remains to be use for packaging, too; by drying

and ground the leftover weed stocks, it then would be dusted on to each brick of coal. Prevent the bricks from sticking to each other. A new sellable substance, by producing and adding the weed plant sap sprayed to ground coal dust bonding it. Doing so will help hold the coal intact for shipment. This could create a packaging plant. Would also be a new agriculture idea for man harvest, another produce. All the while keeping clean the environment and saving the Monarch Butterflies as well. Having the coal industry help the environment by creating a new plus jobs, a coal train up swing. So to speak, just a thought we could run with if given negotiations. Dean D. Ebert, St. Helens

Guest Viewpoint

How a chef became a gluten-free convert BY TRENT DOLYNIUK Owner/Chef, Blackbird Catering and South Columbia County Chamber president

I am a chef and caterer for those of you who don’t know me, and over the course of my career I had had numerous requests for “special food.” Some requests are due to likes and dislikes and others relate to allergies, so when the latest Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Paleo trends popped up a few years ago, I figured, “Here we go again.” It has become the fastest growing segment of my business, although I firmly believed it was all BS. During the holidays I had two different friends talk

to me in depth about their diet and gluten free living. The first was Molly Metcalf Hruska (beyondtheburbs. com). I currently serve with Molly on the South County Chamber of Commerce Board and really admire her work in the community. The second was Deborah Stano, D.C., owner of Stano Chiropractic Clinic. You can find the clinic on Facebook. Deborah said, “What are you afraid of? Just try it.” So starting Dec. 1, 2012, I decided to walk a mile in my friends’ shoes (knowing full well after 30 days or so I’d be right back to normal). First, I altered my diet. I stopped eating dairy products… all dairy products. I

felt better within about three days. It dawned on me that maybe all these years I had been blaming beans for something the cheese on top was causing. After Trent Dolyniuk a couple of weeks, I thought well what can one fresh caramel (made of cream and sugar) hurt? Well, I found out. It was like a four hour stomach flu. I have been bovine juice free ever since. I have not confirmed my lactose Intoler-

ance with a medical doctor, however, I feel better when I don’t have any, so what’s to confirm? Starting on Jan. 1, 2013, I cut out gluten. This was by far a tougher challenge. We live in a society that has managed to stuff gluten into almost everything. There was no dramatic change or feeling even after 30 days, but it probably took that long just for my “Spidey Senses” to be aware of where all the gluten hides. Being pretty sure gluten free living would have no measurable effect on me, I went ahead and continued the practice of a gluten free life. I would eat vegetarian Chinese food with white rice, no soy sauce (that has gluten) feel-

ing proud I’d pop the stupid fortune cookie in my mouth without thinking… damn you gluten! It is still a struggle to identify all sources of gluten but I’m guessing I’m about 95 percent gluten free now. After a while things got a little weird. I am someone who works with my hands, and I had been experiencing nighttime numbness in my arms and hands from the elbow down. Some say this is an indicator of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. I don’t know, I’m not a doctor. Six weeks into my gluten free living these symptoms have gone away. I was dumbstruck. I really thought all this stuff did not apply to me. I did not see a doctor, read a book, or join

a group. I just cut some stuff out of my diet. I eat red meat, and I enjoy a drink now and again. However, once you cut out gluten, you also cut out a bunch of fried and/or processed stuff. I owe an apology to Molly and Deborah for the eye rolls and smart comments in regards to a gluten free diet. What was first just a challenge to see what my friends deal with has turned me into a mostly gluten free convert. I’m lucky gluten doesn’t make feel ill so I can choose to eat it when I like. The net result is I feel much better and I’ve lost a little unwanted weight. Exercise is the next thing to consider trying… ugh.
