Sheriff’s office faces many challenges BY SHARI PHIEL The Chronicle

SHARI PHIEL / The Chronicle

Columbia County Sheriff’s Deputy Bill Haas assists a stranded motorist hook up a trailer that had come loose while traveling a county road.

Each working day, Columbia County Sheriff’s Deputy Bill Haas starts his 12-hour shift like many of us – with paperwork. Haas begins by reviewing the calls and reports that have come in since he was last on duty to learn what individuals or crimes are under investigation, what phone calls need to be returned and what reports need to be completed. After all that, he heads out on the road to look for the “bad guys.” “The bad guys don’t usually use

the highway,” said Haas. “Back in the county, there’s a network of roads people will use to bypass the highways.” Haas often spends hours patrolling these back roads, looking for individuals he may recognize as being wanted or having an outstanding warrant. Sometimes it may mean helping a stranded motorist. “For me, it’s all about being proactive,” Haas said. Since being elected in 2008, Sheriff Jeff Dickerson has both implemented and seen changes come to the Sheriff’s Office. One of the biggest changes was how

deputies responded to the nearly 10,000 calls the office receives each year. Dickerson established a triage system, with critical calls like assaults, robberies in progress, car accidents and other urgent calls getting immediate response. Other calls – like those for property stolen days or weeks ago – may only receive a follow up call and report for insurance records. It’s a system that seems to be working and one that the deputies seem to approve of. One of four deputies that actively patrol Columbia County, Haas has been with the Sheriff’s Office

for a little less than three years and spent six years in the U.S. Marines before that. After leaving the military, Haas headed to the police training academy in Salem. Like many young men with a family, Haas wonders what the future holds in store. As one of the newest additions to the CCSO, Haas worries the ongoing budget crisis could result in his position being eliminated. For now, he focuses on his job instead. “It’s rewarding to help people, to try to make this a better place to be,” Haas said.

Kyle’s Trials: Run until you fly BY KYLE BOGGS The Chronicle

I couldn’t help feeling like Wile E. Coyote on Saturday. There I was, running as fast as I could – which wasn’t very fast – until I ran out of land. And then my legs were still pumping away. But instead of pausing in midair, looking at the camera and dropping to a splat, I lifted up higher and scanned the horizon in awe as I glided out over the Pacific Ocean. Spectacular. The running part felt, well, goofy. I was harnessed to my pilot, Dave Cantrell, and a giant banana-shaped wing connected to us by lots and lots of cords. So when we were sprinting down the gravel runway toward the Three Arch Rocks off in the distance, we must have looked like an offensive guard and tackle practicing pulling in tandem by being hooked together and dragging tires behind them. We were even wearing helmets. Then 10 short seconds after Dave yelled “Run!” for the first time, the parachute lifted us into the air and we were in flight See KYLE’S TRIALS, Page A3

On April 17 at about 7:30 p.m. local time, emergency crews responded to a fire at a fertilizer plant in the small town of West, Texas. Twenty minutes later, while emergency personnel battled the blaze and evacuated the town’s residents, a huge explosion rocked the area. Fourteen people were killed, including eleven first responders. Blocks were destroyed or damaged including a middle school and a nursing home. Could such a horrific event like that happen in our community? The Dyno Nobel plant sits along Highway 30 in Deer Island, surrounded by grass fields and bordered by a gravel mining operation. The plant manufactures an industrial fertilizer, urea, in a pellet form called prill. Unlike the West Fertilizer Company’s plant in Texas, the Dyno Nobel plant has only small quantities of the chemical ammonium nitrate, the product that created the explosion. “Based on the MSDS, there’s not that kind of risk,” said Ron Youngberg, Division Chief of Operations for Columbia River Fire and Rescue. Youngberg, who studied the Texas event, said the product manufactured at Dyno Nobel was a purer form of nitrogen that would burn, but not explode. His main concern was release of the toxic anhydrous ammonia held in tanks at the plant. About half a mile away are the quiet residential streets of Columbia City.

Unique items up for grabs at Booster auction The 14th annual Lite Up the Nite Auction and Dance is coming up on April 27 from 5-11 p.m. The annual event is the biggest fundraiser each year for the St. Helens Sports Boosters. The event is so successful year in and year out is because of the quality items donated for the silent and oral auctions. Some of the items – tickets to Mariners games, flights, weekend getaways – are donated by those who are generous with their pocketbooks. Other items come from the sweat, labor and creativity of Booster Club members like Bert Mueller. Mueller usually donates 10-15 items per auction and they almost always find a home in someone else’s garden. In the past, his creations have included planter boxes, benches and maple limb planters, among other things. For the most part, Mueller gets wood either from his yard or salvages it from other places — some is donated from fellow Booster Rich

Bailey, other wood comes from the old storage barn that was recently torn down near the St. Helens High School football field. His planning comes from elsewhere. “I tell people I get my ideas while I’m sitting on the toilet,” Mueller said. His wife Sue dresses up some of the planter boxes. Using her experience as a florist, she creates arrangements to go inside the boxes. Bert said that usually helps bring in more money for the Booster Club. That money in turn has gone to such

projects as scoreboards in the gyms, wrestling mats, track renovations and several other facility enhancements. The group is currently taking on the task of demolishing and replacing the tennis courts at the high school.

Another St. Helens-specific item up for bid this year is an Intarsia Roaring Lion made from segmented wood by Arjil Shrock. Shrock found a pattern, then cut out 140 pieces of wood before painstakingly sticking them together to create a Lion’s head. While the head appears to have been painted, Shrock said those are the natural colors of the different types of wood. Even local law enforcement has got in on the action: St. Helens Police Chief Terry Moss made a duck hunter-themed poker table. In the past, Moss has donated similar items decorated in Oregon Duck and Oregon State Beaver theme. The auction will take place at the Columbia County Fairgrounds. Cost is $20 to get in for those who purchase tickets in advance or $25 at the door. For information on purchasing tickets, contact Johneta Johnson at 503-397-2292 or visit www.sthelensboosters.com.

Arrests made in robbery of restaurant Fire Reports ST. HELENS - Local police have announced that all three suspects in the armed robbery of Muchas Gracia restaurant that occurred at approximately 2 a.m. on April 13 are now in custody. Just after 5 p.m. on April 18, Portland Police responded to a report of a man firing shots into the air at North Lombard Street and Ida Avenue. As officers were en route to the scene an update was provided that the suspect fired his gun until it was empty then dropped the gun on the ground. Officers arrived and located the suspect in the parking lot of a gas station and took him into custody without

incident. Officers learned that the suspect was Daniel Thomas Rehrig, the 18-year-old St. Helens man wanted in connection with the Muchas Gracias robbery. Portland police contacted the St. Helens Police Dept. and arranged to transfer him to

Terrance Cochran

their custody. The handgun Rehrig was firing was recovered at the scene and he was cited for unlawful discharge of a firearm in the city, reckless endangerment and disorderly conduct. Rehrig was transported to the Columbia County Jail where he was booked on the

charge of first-degree robbery with bail set at $100,000. Earlier in the day on April 18, a family member brought Terrance Anthony Cochran to the St. Helens Police Department where Cochran was taken into custody and booked into the Columbia County Jail. Cochran was also charged with first-degree robbery and is being held on $100,000 bail. A third suspect, Joshua Phillip Walker 18, of St. Helens was arrested on April 17. During the investigation, police seized a green 1999 Honda Accord. A search of the vehicle produced two handguns and clothing associated with the robbery.

Legislation, open house tops Public Health news The Oregon Legislature is looking at protecting kids in cars from secondhand smoke. Ashley Baggett, tobacco program coordinator for the Public Health Foundation, said she is following a bill that would strengthen the penalties for adults who smoke in a car carrying a minor child. Senate Bill 444A would make smoking in a vehicle with a minor a Class D traffic violation – a $250 fine – enforceable only as a secondary offense. The second offense penalty is a $500 fine, and carries a $1,000 fine for subsequent violations. Four other states and Puerto Rico have laws against smoking in a vehicle with a minor. Baggett said breathing secondhand smoke can trigger asthma, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, bronchitis, pneumonia and ear infections in children. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, the developing lungs of young children are severely affected by exposure to secondhand smoke for several reasons including that children are still develop-

ing physically, have higher breathing rates than adults, and have little control over their indoor environments. Children receiving high doses of secondhand smoke, such as those with smoking mothers, run the greatest risk of damaging health effects. The bill was passed by the Senate with 19 votes for and 10 votes against and now goes to the House Health Care Committee. Public invited to Vernonia grand opening Spencer Health and Wellness Center, Vernonia’s school-based health center, will host grand opening ceremonies on Tuesday, April 23, from 9 a.m.–2 p.m. at the new Vernonia Schools building. The clinic space will be open for view. Student guides and staff will be on hand to answer questions and conduct tours. Area dignitaries have been invited to the opening ceremony event at 1 p.m. in the commons.

WIC program has openings for new families WIC Program Manager Jana Mann said throughout Oregon, caseloads have been declining slowly over the past months creating space in the program for new families. Mann said, generally, clients are leaving the state to find work or are finding local jobs and moving off the program. “I’m confident there are many families who don’t realize their income makes them eligible for WIC,” said Mann. A family of four can earn up to $42,600 and be eligible for WIC food vouchers, she said. Women are eligible if they are pregnant or postpartum up to a year if they are breastfeeding. Children are eligible up to their fifth birthday. WIC staff provides monthly clinics and classes in Clatskanie, Vernonia, Rainier and Scappoose as well as at the main public health clinic in St. Helens. For more information, call Mann at 503-397-4651 ext 2008.

some 600 feet above Oceanside. Each year, a large group of paragliders gathers in Tillamook County for the Oceanside Open – three days of paragliding competitions and camaraderie. Event organizer Mark Sanzone was kind enough to invite me out this year to soak up the event and go on a tandem flight. I wasn’t quite sure what I was getting myself into. Really all I knew was I’d run off a cliff and then dangle from a parachute over the ocean for a while. My stomach fluttered as we stood near the cliff’s edge, waiting for the wind to pick up. Because we had to depend so much on nature, there was no natural countdown like there is in so many other adrenaline-pumping events. So rather than gearing up mentally, it was “Go. Run!” and it was time to take off. We tore as quickly as we could down the gravel runway, through the grass and even over some of the brush before the jet stream lifted us on our way. Because I was so focused

on running as fast as possible, there was no time to be nervous or worried. Next thing I knew, we were weightlessly drifting toward the rolling tide. The aerial view of a hillside of houses lifting up from the sandy beach was beautiful. Watching the tide come in from a seagull’s view was more peaceful than I ever could have imagined. Then, suddenly, it was time to prep for landing. The winds weren’t at ideal strength by 12:30, when Dave and I took off. We came down with our eyes focused on a neon green circle in the sand. While making our descent, we hit what Dave called a drop zone. We dropped. Quickly. Instead of reaching the target, we landed on the seats of our pants well away from the circle. Later on in the day, several individual pilots fared much better in the spot landing

consists of a mix of young families and retirees. It’s the closest population center to Dyno Nobel and directly downwind. Youngberg likes the fact Dyno Nobel’s plant is located away from the population center. He points to the Texas facility only yards from a middle school and located right in the small town. “You can thank Oregon’s land use planning laws,” he said, “ as opposed to the madness that happens in other parts of the nation.” Columbia City has a hazard mitigation committee working on an emergency response plan according to Lynette Rivers, city manager of Columbia City. Dyno Nobel is co-operating with the committee, providing information and resources. “We wanted to study the worst case scenario,” said Rivers. That most likely would be a release of anhydrous ammonia.

In a prepared statement, a spokesperson for Dyno Nobel said, “As part of its ongoing commitment to ensuring the safety of its employees, surrounding communities, and the environment, Dyno Nobel’s industrial chemical manufacturing plant at St. Helens has risk management plans which meet or exceed federal and state requirements, together with emergency response plans which are supported by Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response (HAZWOPER) trained plant personnel. In addition, Dyno Nobel cooperates fully with the local community groups to effectively plan and communicate needs, and is a member of the Local Emergency Planning Committee, Community Emergency Planning Association, Homeland Security and Emergency Commission and Columbia City Hazard Mitigation Committee.” Rivers also pointed out the half mile buffer the commu-

competition. Some even landed directly on the target. It was a sight to see and several passersby stopped to take in the spectacle. Not many of them went up to the top of the cliff to run off though. And that’s a shame. A man in the parking lot was explaining to a young lady that, “If you ever wonder why birds sing, you won’t after you go flying up there.” He was right: It’s definitely an experience worth singing about.

nity has from the plant. In the event of a major release, the buffer could provide precious minutes to warn citizens to protect themselves. “Sheltering in place is proven to be the best method.” She said. “It had the highest survival rate.” But Rivers said residents should educate themselves about sheltering in place. Warning residents is crucial to any plan, Rivers said. “We’re trying to educate our people they need to register their cell phones.” Columbia City uses the Columbia Alert Network, a system operated by Columbia 911, to warn residents in a specific geographical area with automated phone calls. But many people no longer use land lines and cell phone numbers aren’t available to 911 unless the owner has registered the number. River’s said she encourages residents to register their numbers with 911. Rivers said the chances of a major event at Dyno Nobel were extremely small.

spent a lot of overtime money every month in training costs for the tactical team (CIRT). By eliminating our participation in the team, we plan on greatly reducing our overtime costs.” While these cuts will be felt heavily by the department, it is clear Dickerson believes the Sheriff’s Office can still move forward. “With the loss of our narcotics detective, we lose decades of experience in criminal investigation in both narcotics and other criminal cases. With the loss of our part-time employees at the animal shelter, it will force us to dramatically alter the way the shelter is run. With the loss of training hours for the CIRT team, our deputies will no longer be on the team, but can still work tactically together whenever the need arises,” Dickerson said. Are there any other jobs on the chopping block? For now, the answer seems to be no. “I do not anticipate any other cuts this year. What happens next year is another Page– 1one that is yet to be story written,” Dickerson said.

Maps for Vernonia show flood and Fire destroys historic Yankton building landslide hazards Brian Burright of Columbia River Fire and Rescue, the burning building was only about six feet from the home. The home suffered extensive damage to the siding and window frames but fire crews were able to prevent the fire from penetrating the interior of the home. All the home’s occupants escaped unharmed. Burright said it took crews about an hour to quell the flames. He said the

An original bunkhouse from the early part of the twentieth century was destroyed by fire over the weekend. The fire also damaged a manufactured home at 61508 Hancock Drive off Pittsburg Road. Fire crews were called to the scene about 7:30 p.m. April 19 to find the structure totally engulfed in flames and threatening the neighboring residence. According to on-scene commander,

home would be habitable after repairs to the siding and windows. The home was insured. Michael and Kathy Chakos own it. Two children, ages 21 and 16 were also home at the time of the fire. The shed was the remaining structure from a logging camp located in Happy Hollow about 1900–10. It had served as a bunk house for camp workers. The one story structure was most recently used for storage.

St. Helens builds ties with Portland broadcaster Back in October, three St. Helens High School girls soccer players and their coach were invited into the studios at Portland Sports Beat to be interviewed about their showdown with league rival Sherwood. Now, St. Helens has an even stronger tie to the upstart Portland station. Taylor Foster, a 2012 SHHS graduate, recently joined the Sports Beat team as a field reporter. While she’s been on the show for just over a week, she’s already been rewarded. While covering a practice for the Nike Hoop Summit, she ran into Portland Trail Blazers Meyers Leonard and – with the aid of a folding chair – conducted an interview with the 7-foot, one-inch rookie. “I adore Meyers Leonard. I love him. It was kind of hard to be professional, but I’m glad I could put on my professional face,” Foster said. She said there’s a good chance that professionalism could be on display locally in the near future. The station is trying to get scheduling worked out to bring on members of the SHHS softball team to discuss the success they’ve had early on this season. If they are able to coordinate schedules, Foster said her and a camera crew will come out to shoot

Foster said she was thrust into the limelight for her first show. “The night before, they called me at 10 p.m. One of the hosts was sick and they asked me to fill in,” she said. While she admitted to not being sure what to do the whole time, she said her cohost helped guide her throw her debut. In addition to her duties as impromptu host and field reporter, Foster will cover the new Portland Boltz football

Much of the public infrastructure and property in the city of Vernonia, was damaged by a long-duration winter storm in December 2007. A series of three storms arrived over three consecutive days, producing extreme winds and heavy rain that resulted in widespread record flooding throughout the region. As directed by the state, the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DOGAMI) created a set of lidar-based maps to aid in assessing the vulnerability of critical and essential facilities to flood and landslide hazards. Landslide inventory maps for Vernonia were also created in conjunction with this map series.

Letters Correction concerning trains In the April 10 issue Mr. Clarke said, “Terry Luttrell and other port commissioners voted to run coal trains through Columbia County without doing any research.” It appears he is the one who didn’t do his research. Interstate Commerce Law supersedes all local ordinances. We have absolutely no say in regard to trains and what they transport this is federally regulated. By the way no leases have been signed as of yet. We simply gave them the authority to do their due diligence to see if they could meet the tough state and federal guidelines which we all know are very strict in Oregon. Our county needs family wage jobs. If we want family wage jobs, trains will be used in many different industrial applications. My concern is the number of people in our community that want to work but nothing is available. I feel it is my responsibility to at least listen to any possibility that may provide our county with an enlarged tax base for our schools, county sheriff, 9-1-1, and others needed services. To accuse the port of reckless behavior when Mr. Clarke has only attended one port meeting and is misinformed about the issues isn’t what our county needs. Terry Luttrell, St. Helens Vote for Luttrell I have had the distinct pleasure of knowing Terry Luttrell for many years. Terry has served as a commissioner for the Port of St. Helens for six years. His decisions are well thought out and logical. He truly cares about our entire Port district and deals with the many issues that face the Port on a daily basis. He is hard working, and investigates every issue so he can make a well-informed decision taking all points of view into consideration. Terry also has very calm

demeanor. You never see him get excited or belittle anyone, even if their opinions differ. Please join me in voting for Terry Luttrell for Port commissioner Chris Iverson, St. Helens Support coal jobs Presently, 10 to 15% of the actual workers in Columbia County are unemployed and recently the St. Helens paper mill has closed down. The front page of the Business section of the April 20, 2013 issue of the Oregonian newspaper reported that Greenbrier, the owner of Gunderson steel fabricating plant in NW Portland, plans to lay off one fourth (200 workers) of its work force between now and August 2013. This could mean more unemployed workers in Columbia County and may cause more home foreclosures and taxes in arrears. The county, cities, school districts and other tax supported agencies will be facing further hardships. The sheriff has been warned that he will have to cut his budget by $600,000!!! Most of the workers who earn a good family wage, have to commute out of the county to their jobs. The economy of Columbia County is in dire straits, to say the least. Citizens of Columbia County, we can have a big part in changing all of this. Support the Port of St. Helens Commission in their efforts to build a strong industrial base in Columbia County with their efforts to land the Morrow Pacific “barge to ship” coal transfer facility. This is probably not the total answer to our economic problems, but it is a good start. It will open the way for more job development right here in Columbia County, followed by a better tax base for the county and its governmental agencies. Greenbrier (Gunderson steel) has already indicated it will have to hire approximately

350 workers to build the barges if this coal facility is approved! I urge you to call the Port of St. Helens, our state Senator Betsy Johnson, Representative Brad Witt, U.S. Congresswoman Bonamici, U.S. Senators Wyden and Merkley and urge them to put pressure on the EPA to issue the permits needed to get this project moving. One more thing you can do is to vote for the two Port of St. Helens commissioners that are up for re-election in May, Chris Iverson and Terry Luttrell. Fred Yauney Scappoose Vote for 9-1-1 levy I write to encourage everyone to vote for the renewal of the Columbia County Emergency Communications (9-1-1) levy which will be on the ballot this May. There are many reasons for my support, but the foremost is my experience in 1986 when my husband stopped breathing early one morning. As anyone in that situation would be, I had to reach out for help and called 9-1-1. Within a few minutes, volunteers from our local fire department were at the door to help me. As it happened, he did not survive, but the care, concern and professionalism that was afforded to me is indelible on my mind. Although this was in a different county, the operators of our local 9-1-1 Center are extremely professional, compassionate and highly trained to help us deal with events of crisis in our lives. I cannot imagine life before 9-1-1 and I highly support this levy renewal, as does the Clatskanie City Council. As a Mayor, I am always concerned about the safety of our law enforcement officers and our fire department personnel. The 9-1-1 operators are not only concerned with the callers, but also the safety of our emergency services in each area of this county. I listen to a scanner

and I am always impressed by the care and concern of 9-1-1 for those who are on the front lines defending our safety. Please vote yes on this renewal. It will not mean an increase in taxes, but a renewal of what we already pay. Someday you might be the one who needs to call 9-1-1 and I know you join me in wanting to make sure they are there to help. Mayor Diane Pohl Clatskanie

End the manner in which the Justice Department uses “Form 302, Finding of Fact.” When interrogating the subject of a federal investigation, two FBI agents sit down with the target. Rather than film the episode, one asks questions while the other writes down the response. The written answers are the only record of that interview. If the subject of that interview contradicts any of the narrative on Form 302 in open court, he faces a 5 year sentence for lying to a federal agent. The interview should be taped.

all statements should be open to review and correction in open court. No charges of lying to a federal agent should be threatened. This is nothing more then railroading of federal suspects. Our judicial manner should be above reproach. This is childish. 2 End ethanol subsidies. This industry uses more fossil fuels in its production then savings to the environment it creates.

Guest Editorial

There are many reasons not to oppose coal trains Various letters to the editor and other published “information” suggests that somehow a few additional trains locally will blacken sheets on clotheslines, disrupt traffic, kill and maim, and generally cause havoc. Some incorrectly state that the line between Portland and Clatskanie is near capacity. All of this is false; the line could easily handle several more trains than presently. I retired after 40 years’ experience on numerous railroad positions involved with issues such as these. I have no dog in this race, won’t make or lose a penny no matter what happens, nor will my pension be affected; so it really doesn’t matter to me whether Columbia County prospers or not, or whether less or more trains run through it; but misinformation as to how railroads function, or promises impossible to keep about “stopping”

them, need examination. Across the river at Kalama – Woodland – Ridgefield, where a two-track railroad main line parallels our own relatively quiet, dead-end branch line, there’s a daily average total of fifty freight trains allowed 60 MPH, and 10 passenger trains allowed 79 MPH. Freight commodities include coal, propane, ammonia, chlorine, and fuel oils. At least three railroads have used those tracks since 1909, yet everyone over there is still alive and well, bed-sheets still are white, and motorists, fire and police personnel go about business unhampered. In contrast, highway deaths, accidents (including spillage), or delays everywhere occur regularly; and oddly enough, with seeming public indifference. A railroad is a “common carrier” (a legal term, federal in nature) subject to interstate commerce law, which super-

sedes local regulation. Common carriers must accept any commodity offered to them; they cannot pick and choose based on likes or dislikes of any commodity. Railroads (and trucks) are governed by several thick volumes of 49 CFR (code of federal regulations) prescribing safety and cautionary procedures for every aspect of operation, including shipments requiring special handling or considered hazardous. Twenty years ago, a city in Northwest Washington State became alarmed upon learning that a railroad line into their town, inactive 10 years, was going to be reopened. Trying to be a good neighbor, the railroad had applied for grading permits and other re-construction work. But the city “didn’t want trains tying things up” and spent (wasted) many taxpayer dollars for legal battling. Courts ruled against the City, citing precedent; by

that. Temporarily, during a bona fide emergency, railroad operation can be halted, but not otherwise. Anyone promising to “stop trains” moving through our county is uninformed, and expenditure of taxpayers’ money on such efforts will only waste your dollars on issues settled years ago. The only way to “stop” any legal commodity moving by Common Carrier is to eliminate the market for it in the first place. I fail to see how doing that could “create” jobs. “Eliminating a market” serves to prevent potential jobs. Encouraging, rather than discouraging commerce and industry is a proper function of a port authority. Additionally, an industrial tax base pays for public works (Maybe that’s why public services are cut to the bone in our county?). Any commodity worth buying, selling, or hauling will result in somebody

traditional law and practice, railroads historically engaged in Interstate Commerce had right of eminent domain, and could build or re-open any track, and run as many trains as wished. The court also ruled they were not subject to local ordinance or code, and needed no permits for grading or right-of-way work. The City thus lost out on permit fees that could have provided revenue; and that railroad line has been used ever since, with several daily freight trains, and no motor traffic tie-ups, calamities, or disasters of any consequence. Sometimes certain elements of railroad operation can be modified, such as establishing horn-free zones, but again, this is granted only by authority higher than Local. Voters basing their decisions only upon promises whether this or that candidate can “stop” trains, face disappointment. Nobody can do News Staff

finding a way to do just that; and with no railroad moving things along, instead of a 100-car train at 35 MPH passing over each railroad crossing in just under two minutes, in its place, how about 100 or more trucks on Highway 30, stopping at every red light in Scappoose, St. Helens and maybe Rainier and Clatskanie too, then trying to get back up to speed again? Try that during a commute or shopping trip, and see how you fare. Last week I asked a locomotive engineer working between Seattle and Portland about coal dust blowing from other freight trains passing by at speed. His locomotive provides a good vantage point. His reply: “No, not a speck, anyplace, anytime. Coal cars have a waxy top sealant applied, to prevent that.”
