Locks To Close For Two Weeks In March

Posted on by mbailey

The $23 billion of commerce that flows along the Columbia River will pause for two weeks beginning March 2 as the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Portland District closes three navigation locks for annual inspections and maintenance.  The closures of the Bonneville, The Dalles, and John Day Locks will continue through March 16.  The closure will include annual inspections and routine maintenance, as well as additional rappel inspections at John Day by a Corps of Engineers climbing team.  Typically, the Portland and Walla Walla districts coordinate their annual lock closures across the Columbia-Snake River System.  This year, each district is notifying the public separately due to different closure periods.   Walla Walla District’s lock closure began January 14 and ends March 29.  The Corps coordinates the annual lock closures with inland shippers and cruise lines to minimize the impacts to those users.  Portland District’s locks on the Columbia River pass 10 million of the 50.5 million tons of commerce shipped annually in the nation.

Harris Bill To Assist Independent Health Care Providers Passes Committee

Posted on by mbailey

The Washington House Health Care and Wellness Committee approved legislation from 17th District Rep. Paul Harris that would assist independent health care providers.  House Bill 1655 would require contracts between insurance companies and providers to include an increase from the previous year based on the consumer price index.  Harris says small, private health care providers have not received an increase in their reimbursement fees for about ten years.  Harris adds significant consolidation in health plan markets has given insurance companies greater bargaining power over individual health care providers and small clinics who have little or no opportunity to negotiate compensation to cover overhead costs.

Mosbrucker Bill To Train K-9’s To Sniff Fentanyl Passes House

Posted on by mbailey

Washington 14th District State Representative Gina Mosbrucker’s bill to equip law enforcement with trained dogs that could sniff out fentanyl received unanimous support in the State House.  The Goldendale Republican says the legislation would create a new training and certification program for police dogs to root-out fentanyl.  Mosbrucker is author of House Bill 1635, which would require the Washington State Criminal Justice Training Commission to develop model law enforcement standards and train and certify K-9s in the detection of fentanyl.  If Mosbrucker’s bill is approved by the Senate, fentanyl-sniffing police dog training could begin later this year.
