Modern message in a bottle: ‘this could be oil’ By Emily Greenberg Journal Reporter

A tanker carrying hundreds of tons of fuel lost power close to the shores of Haida Gwaii, a northern British Columbia archipelago, Thurs., Oct. 16. The vessel, nearing the shoreline, in danger of running aground and spilling fuel into the water, was rescued by a U.S. tug boat after the

Canadian Coast Guard was unable to tow it to safety. Three environmental organizations from the U.S. and Canada, including Friends of the San Juans, have dropped drift cards labeled “this could be oil” over the past year, with the most recent drop Aug. 25. The cards were dropped along oil tanker routes from the Burrard Inlet in

The goal is to model the likely path where oil would travel in the event of a major spill. Out of 700 cards dropped, six were found in the Haida Gwaii archipelago. Three were dropped at Turn Point on Stuart Island and the other three in Georgia Strait. “If it can get there, it could likely get back,” Friends Director Stephanie Buffum said, alluding to the likelihood of fuel drifting into the Salish Sea, if spilled off the Haida Gwaii shorelines. The drift card project came to life after the third largest energy company in North America, Kinder Morgan, proposed the expansion of its Trans Mountain Pipeline, which transports crude and refined oil from points as

far away as Alberta and California. If approved, the expansion of the pipeline would increase the amount of Alberta tar sand oil transported to the Vancouver, B.C. area from 300,000 to 890,000 barrels per day, and likely boost tanker traffic in the Salish Sea from five tankers per month to 34. Islands’ Oil Spill Association is preparing. “Because of the potential and likelihood of increased shipping vessels, we’re focusing on the westside of the islands,” IOSA’s

Jackie Wolf said. “We have supplies throughout the islands, but the reality is in the event of a big spill, we’d need help.” IOSA is a first-responder that implements strategy, and deploys booms (a temporary floating barrier) to contain spills and protect environmentally sensitive areas. IOSA and its volunteers have had recent training exercises at False Bay, Mitchell Bay and on the westside of Orcas Island, focusing on the west side of the islands in the assumption that any increase in

tanker traffic will travel through Boundary Bay and into Haro Strait, Wolf said. Nearly 11 million gallons of crude oil spilled into Alaska’s Prince William Sound when The Exxon Valdez struck Bligh Reef in 1989. The catastrophic spill marked the beginning of the end for a small group of transient killer whales, the AT1s, that made the Sound and surrounding waters their home.

with less and that organization members blame the leadership for the resulting strain. What is an executive to do? He can either tell his bosses no or ask his subordinates to step up and continue to do more with less. In this case, the bosses are all of you, the voters. The quick fix would be to add personnel. Sheriff Nou asked for more personnel and was rejected due to budget constraints. The personnel retention challenges for Orcas and Lopez Islands have remained unchanged for the past 12 years due to reasons that are not in the sheriff’s control.

Although I like both candidates, my experience has taught me that executive positions are best occupied after progressive opportunities for development.

Trash to treasures: an auction with an attitude Searching for that one-of-a-kind gift… maybe a Barbie voodoo doll, a candelabrum made from a wooden barrel stave or a totsized rocking chair refinished in polka dots? Your shopping fantasy could come true on Nov. 15 when SWAP’s Trash-To-Treasures Auction and Sale returns to Woodmen Hall. Not your ordinary benefit auction, TrashTo-Treasures features finds from people’s attics, garages and the Take-It-Or-LeaveIt – cleverly refurbished or reconfigured into fun and beautiful objects. Like SWAP’s popular Trashion-Fashion Show, the event does double duty, raising funds for the Lopez Island Dump while promoting the values of recycling, repurposing and reuse in an entertaining way. “You might call it an auction with an attitude,” explains Sarah Eppenbach, who chairs the nonprofit that supports the dump. “It’s a little edgy.” Sale items range from household furnishings and décor to artwork, apparel, gifts and accessories – all created by Lopezians with a flair for seeing potential in items given up as worn or superfluous. Good examples would be the trio of brightly painted indoor/outdoor wooden benches repurposed from discarded bedsteads by Tom and Debbie Collins, or an exquisite evening bag sewn from silk neckties by Mary Grace Lartz. Almost without exception, the offerings will be hand crafted on Lopez and totally

Island Hospital wins big award

Island Hospital in Anacortes received the Washington State Hospital Association’s Community Health Leadership Award for its innovative approach to delivering mental health services to students in a rural setting. The purpose of the Community Health Leadership Award is to recognize health-care organizations that provide a strong, “above and beyond” program to benefit the broader health needs of their communities. The award was presented during the association’s annual meeting on Oct. 16 at Bell Harbor International Conference Center in Seattle. The school-based mental-health program began in 2013 with a needs assessment of the Anacortes community. The results showed that there was significant need for more mental-health and substance-abuse services. After considering several different approaches to this challenge, Psychiatry & Behavioral Health at Island Hospital solicited support from a number of community partners to develop a school-based mental-health delivery model.

tabletop holiday décor created, naturally, from recyclables or repurposed treasures. A sampling of additional items up for grabs: jewelry crafted from found objects, recycled calligraphy hangings, terrariums made from salvaged glass containers and the plastic bottle “chandeliers” and colorful “umbrellas” that wowed the audience at this year’s Trashion-Fashion Show. The auction will include a few Lopez adventures (such as a half-day sail for six aboard a 42-foot

schooner, with organic gourmet lunch) and services (such as two-hours of professional housecleaning). There’s even a refurbished Toyota Corolla. Trash-To-Treasures starts at 5:30 p.m. with a no-host bar and chili and cornbread supper available by donation. Chief Jim Ghiglione will wield the gavel during the live auction portion. Other items will be priced to sell on the spot. Look for a partial list of items at www.lopezsolidwaste. org/SWAP.

tion creates the potential for more challenges, not fewer, in my opinion. I choose to support Sheriff Nou because he is an honest proven leader in the role of sheriff. Sheriff Nou has made tremendous improvements to our organization and I am confident that he will continue to thoughtfully and calmly serve all of us. Very respectfully, SCOTT TAYLOR Lopez Island

Joan White for San Juan County Clerk We are writing to express our support for Joan White’s reelection as San Juan County Clerk. We frequently have the opportunity to interact with Joan and her staff in the clerk’s office, and Joan’s long-time professional and responsive leadership sets a welcoming tone. We appreciate the professional and cordial demeanor set by Joan’s leadership and the competent manner in which the clerk’s office is administered. In addition to providing information and assistance to attorneys, Joan and her staff also assist members of the public with courtesy, patience and humor. As clerk, Joan has many responsibilities, including overseeing the filing of legal documents by attorneys and members of the public, working with the Court Administrator to coordinate the Judge’s calendars, communicating with courts in other jurisdictions and keeping all of us informed on new procedures. There are many other facets of the clerk’s position that can only be learned through experience, and Joan White has that experience. Joan has been our county clerk for eight years, and her leadership and wealth of

experience shows. We are voting for Joan White for San Juan County Clerk. DIANA AND JERRY HANCOCK DIANA G. HANCOCK, ATTORNEY AT LAW Lopez Island

Yes to prop. 1 Along with supporting the Lopez School bond and the Lopez Solid Waste levy, please vote to support San Juan County Proposition 1. This “levy lid-lift” will replace the soon to expire levy passed by voters in 2009 and provides critical funding to many important programs including senior services, public health, county parks and emergency services, etc. If it fails, these programs will certainly face significant budget cuts. Please know that San Juan County will still have the lowest property tax rate in Washington State. Vote YES for San Juan County Proposition 1. TOM COWAN Lopez Island

Support for the school bond Today I received my general election ballot, and I happily selected “Approved” for the Lopez Island School District bond measure. Here’s why: Our school’s physical plant needs significant mending to address a failing septic system, a bus loading area that doesn’t meet current safety standards, and a kitchen that isn’t up-to-date for health, safety, and education needs. Additionally, because of our school’s aging facilities, the district is losing out on efficiencies in the areas of energy, staffing, education standards and flexibility. What I’ve heard and read has convinced me that this year’s bond measure offers the plans and budget to address these needs. At approximately 31 cents per $1,000 of assessed home value, this bond isn’t only a wise investment for me and

our entire community, it’s a bargain. Now is the time for us to take this important step to be good stewards of an island treasure – our K-12 school. IRIS GRAVILLE Lopez Island

The undersigned support staff of Lopez School would like to speak in favor of the Capital Projects Bond. We, who work every day in the buildings that house our students, staff and programs understand too clearly that major work is overdue. The structure of the school has deteriorated to the point that it daily affects the quality of the work environment for students and staff alike. Flooring is damaged and even missing in some places, as is the outdoor siding, which can cause water infiltration. Heating and cooling are problematic with newer and antiquated systems that need to be brought up to date. We are desperate for technology infrastructure and equipment to keep us current. The fire alarm system is not linked between the elementary and secondary so that a fire could be occurring in one school and there would be no warning in the other. Plumbing and sewer systems have deteriorated to the point of needing constant repair. The students and staff deserve a professional and safe environment in which to learn and work. As support staff we support kids by safely transporting them to schools, by providing a clean, organized environment for them to learn in, by bandaging their wounds after picking them up out of the gravel on the playground, by providing technological assistance to enhance their learning, by preparing healthy meals for

their bodies and minds. We ask that you pitch in and help support our children, your children, our community’s children by passing the current bond. The success and safety of our students are our focus. We believe that the revised amount of the proposed bond is far from frivolous and very much needed. Please join us in voting yes.

Concerns about school bond I see that the only thing that’s changed from the original school bond proposal is that now they have a wish list. The problem is there are no costs for any of the repairs or upgrades on their list. As a taxpayer, I have no idea if the work to be done will cost $9.6 million or $2.6 million. What the superintendent and school board want the taxpayers to do is blindly give them $9.6 million dollars and they will pick a committee to decide how to spend it. The budget in just the last three years has increased $413,747 or $1,863.72 per child and the state auditor found Lopez School financial management lacking to the

tune of $64,182 in penalties and late fees. Being a taxpayer and looking at the numbers for just the last three years and the fact that I have no idea what any of the work will cost or even what work will be done, I still would not give this Superintendent or school board 9 cents to manage let alone $9.6 million dollars of taxpayer money. DAN KOVAC Lopez Island

Silent witness Thank you for the feedback regarding the Silent Witness Project on Fisherman Bay Road. Creating the installation has been a healing and enlightening experience for everyone involved. Some of you have asked me why we put up the Silent Witness Project when our island had no domestic violence fatalities last year. Here’s why: There are men and women in abusive relationships on our island right now. Survivors can be our friends, our neighbors, our family members and even ourselves. Do you know what an abusive relationship looks like? If your friend revealed that their partner hit them, what would you say? The

Silent Witness Project does not just remember the dead. It protects the living by educating the community, starting the conversation among friends and showing survivors that we take domestic violence seriously. If you want to show support, please attend our Community Vigil on Wednesday, Oct. 22 at 5 p.m. at the Lopez Center Outdo or Pavilion. We will remember not only the names of those that died, but the nameless women and men who are experiencing relationship violence right now in our community. Your presence says to the community that you support survivors and will not tolerate violence. Thank you Parvin Baharloo, Migael Scherer, Jack Pedigo, Eleanor Burke, Liles in the Valley, Jaina Bee, the Lopez Library, the Lopez Center and everyone else who has donated time and resources to end the silence around domestic violence. DVSAS provides FREE and CONFIDENTIAL services to survivors and their loved ones. Call our 24-Hour Crisis Line at 468-4567.

Gretchen Wing. the end of “The Flying Burgowski.” But where the first book could be described as a coming-ofage novel, “Headwinds” features a darker theme. Someone wants to bring the Flyer down. Jocelyn has an enemy. Beyond superpowers and family conflict, “Headwinds” delves into some heavy-duty social issues like homophobia and teen pregnancy. Wing credits the presidential campaign season of 2008 with providing ideas for plot and character. “People were so nastily self-righteous. I thought about dedicating the book to Sarah Palin,” she jokes. “I’m pretty sure the book’s theme of ‘live and let live’ sprang from that time.” Politics in a young adult novel? Isn’t Wing afraid of alienating readers? “No. I was a teacher; I believe in the power of cognitive dissonance—making someone uncomfortable in order to challenge beliefs. If my book makes someone uneasy for a time, I think that’s a good thing. I trust in

the characters’ charm, and the story’s pace and humor, to keep readers reading. Plus—there’s romance!” If the book were to be banned by some well-meaning school board, Wing says, so much the better. Wing does struggle with the “young adult” label. Written from the point of view of a 14-year-old girl dealing with family relationships, friendship and that wonderful question, “Is this love?” the label seems to fit. But Wing’s experience with

“The Flying Burgowski” leads her to say, “It’s a young adult novel for young adults of all ages.” Although Wing began “Headwinds” before moving to Lopez full-time, it was more challenging than she had expected to avoid letting the characters of fictional Dalby Island reflect real Lopezians. “I had to be careful,” she comments. “But I can safely say that all my characters were fully formed before I became fully integrated into this community. Phew.” Joining Wing in the reading will be Anah-Kate Drahn, Gavin Goodrich, and Ron Metcalf. Author Q & A, book signing and refreshments will follow.

NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the seller’s and buyer’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a cord by visualizing a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.

Buffum believes the risks of an oil spill outweigh any reward that the proliferation of would-be petroleum projects might bring. “We’re in the center of fossil fuel export for North America,” she said. “Right here in little San Juan County.” The threat of a potential oil spill in the Salish Sea is not only grabbing the attention of locals, but that of state officials as well. Funding in the 2014 state budget allowed the Department of Ecology to study and analyze the risks

to public health and safety and the environmental impacts of transporting oil in Washington state. The study found that prevention is the best means to reduce the risk of oil spills, and that an aggressive, wellcoordinated response plan must be in place in collaboration with the state, the party responsible for the spill and other organizations. A public meeting to discuss preliminary findings of the study and accept public comments is Oct. 30, 5 p.m., in Olympia. Friends submitted comments to the governor’s office, is asking islanders to do the same and is orga-

nizing a carpool for the Olympia forum. The goal of the driftcard project is three-fold: to inform the community about risks associated with increased tanker traffic, to develop a better understanding of where oil might end up in the event of a spill and to accumulate data for a final report. That final report, to be authored by the Raincoast Conservation Foundation (Friend’s partner in the drift card project), will presented to the National Energy Board of Canada, the organization evaluating Kinder Morgan’s proposed pipeline expansion. Friends, along with its partners, will air

care needs of oiled birds, including capture, handling and stabilization and give an overview of the logistics of responding to an oil spill in the islands, including the many ways community members can help during a spill. We will also talk about the federal and state requirements for oil spill responders.

IOSA also offers spill responder training for containment/exclusion/ recovery, including on-thewater boom deployment drills, several times a year, as well as other classes. So if you prefer to work on the equipment side of oil spill response, or if you want to work with oiled birds but can’t make it to the Nov. 8
