Wednesday, June 29, 2016 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon sPrd seeks Sisters Roundup of board Gems rolling into town member Sisters Park & Recreation District is looking for an individual interested in serv- ing on its board of directors to fill the position of Andrew Gorayeb, who stepped aside last month. The board consists of five members. Board meetings are generally on the first Tuesday of the month at 6 p.m., with an additional meeting some- times scheduled on a Tuesday evening in the middle of the month. Because this position has become vacant in the middle of an elected term, the board will appoint a candidate. However, if the appointed candidate would like to con- tinue serving on the board, they will have to be voted in during the public election process in May. This is a volunteer position. To apply, fill out the board member application form found at www.sisters recreation.com/board-meet- ings. For more informa- tion contact Liam Hughes at Sisters Park & Recreation District, 541-549-2091 or liam@sistersrecreation.com.

The Bulletin reports that people have raised concerns about fish passage operations and water quality, but experts say restoring the upstream salmon may just take time. Officials are trying to restore salmon runs upstream of a 20-mile dam complex operated by Portland General Electric. The three-dam complex was completed in 1964 and stopped salmon runs decades ago. PGE fisheries and water quality manager Megan Hill says people want to see immediate results but don’t realize that reintroducing salmon takes time. The company will include public updates on the project during its 21st annual work- shop exploring dam and fish- ery topics, which will be held Wednesday and Thursday in Madras.
