Posted on by mbailey

Wasco County Commissioners held their first meeting in their new location Wednesday morning.  The Commissioners met in the building at 401 East 3rd in The Dalles, which the County purchased to serve as a new home for many of its offices.  Commission meetings in the past were held in the cramped room 302 in the Wasco County Courthouse.  Commissioner Scott Hege hopes the new location will make their meetings more accessible to the public.  During the meeting Commissioners, acting in their capacity as the Wasco County Library Service District board, decided to have discussions on revisions to the intergovernmental agreement with the City of The Dalles regarding how library costs are divided between the City and the District continue, as representatives of both parties remained apart on significant items in the IGA.

OPRD Seeks Comment On Change To Correct Maupin Boundary Description

Posted on by mbailey

The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department is seeking public comment on a proposed rule change that would correct the city of Maupin’s boundary description in the Deschutes Scenic Waterway rule.  The rule uses a description of Maupin’s city boundary that does not include land annexed in 1973.  The later adopted Deschutes Scenic Waterway statute includes the city boundary with the annexed land.  The discrepancy between the two was discovered when a proposed development in the Lower Deschutes State Scenic Waterway corridor raised the question regarding the statutory boundary.  The proposed rule change would update the description of Maupin’s city boundary to reflect the boundary described in statute.  Public comments on the proposed rule change will be accepted through May 31.  Go to the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department website for details.  There will be no public hearing.  Once the public comment period ends, the proposal with any incorporated updates is slated to go to Oregon State Parks and Recreation Commission in June for possible adoption.

Mayer State Park Restoration Work Underway

Posted on by mbailey

The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department is working with federal agencies and tribal partners to restore and protect a portion of Mayer State Park.  The department is working with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the Bonneville Power Administration, and tribes to spread soil and plant native grasses to stabilize the east side of Mayer State Park.  The work also includes adding boulders.  Visitors can still access the Columbia River for watersports and recreation at Mayer State Park, but the east riverbank area is closed to foot and vehicle traffic.  In addition to restoration, the work includes improving river access in the remaining portion of the park with an improved pathway to the water.  The park will remain open to all users during and after restoration efforts.

Salmon & Steelhead Fishing On Mainstem Columbia Closing Monday Night

Posted on by mbailey

Fishery managers from Oregon and Washington took action to close salmon and steelhead fishing in the mainstem Columbia River upstream of Bonneville Dam as the spring Chinook allocation for this fishery has been met.  Salmon and steelhead angling and retention will close between Bonneville Dam and the Oregon/Washington state line upstream of McNary Dam at 11:59 p.m. on Monday, April 29.  This area was originally scheduled to be open through May 2.  Columbia River program manager Tucker Jones says the need to close early is unfortunate but necessary as the fishing has been better that expected, and has met its allocation.  Jones adds this area and the fishery below Bonneville Dam may reopen later in spring, depending on the run size and available allocations when managers reassess in the first few weeks of May.  All other permanent regulations remain in effect.
