Public Access was born out of the concept that the airways belong to the public. And now, here in Eugene. at 326 W. 12th. we have a community studio (with minimal equipment, but more is coming) from which Cable Channel 11 is broad casting locally made tapes, live programs. and some taped shows made in other studios. Types of programs vary from Nuclear Questions, which covers energy and environmental issues. to Television As Folk Art featuring live acts, short tapes, and conversation. Program highlights this coming week are Lane County News with Jerry Rust. Naturesource, a live interview with a local couple who produce alter native video games and La Voz Hispanica, a Spanish language news oroaram. What's Happening will publish the Public Access schedule weekly. The alter native programming on Channel 11 provides an exciting option for TV viewers in the community.

The Council will release an initial draft of the plan very soon. If you want your ideas and opinions to be considered, try to attend both a panel discussion on Monday. October 4 and a workshop on Mon day. October 11. The panel discussion will be held at 7:00 p.m. at Eugene City Council Chambers, 777 Pearl. The following week, the workshop will be at 7:00 p.m. at Roosevelt Junior High School. East 24th and Hilyard. The panel discussion on the 4th is set up to give participants an overview of the issues: each panelist will present his view of regional conservation strategies; the public will then have input during a question-and-answer period. During the workshop session on the 11th. participants will meet in small groups to discuss the issues and suggest strategies for inclusion in the draft plan. Workshop results will be compiled, analyzed. and submitted to the Power Council. The Council urges you to attend both sessions. Notify Oregon Appropriate Technology office in Eugene at 683-1613 or Oregon Department of Energy (toll-free) at 1-800-452-7813 if you will be able to participate. The Eugene meetings in October will be the last chance for citizens to voice their opinions before the draft plan is released for public review in January 1983. so get in your word on a regional energy plan for the Northwest. . .. . . - Lois Wadsworth
