Growers begin burning
The first field burning of the summer began last Friday, according
to the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ).
The burning will be conducted under an interim system of burning
permits. The system was developed by the DEQ to allow the growers
to take advantage of favorable smoke management conditions bet
ween now and the end of the month. By that time, the regular burning
permit system will be in place. The interim permits are being sent out
to the fire districts today.
The interim system was necessitated by the late passage of the
new field burning law by the Legislature. Implementation of the new
law has required re-registration of fields. In addition, the law requires
the Environmental Quality Commission (EQC) to reallocate the in
creased acreage allowed this year. The re-registration must be com
pleted by July 10. The EQC will be meeting on Friday to adopt a
method of allocation. The meeting will take place at 2 p.m. in Room
129 of the Marion County Courthouse in Salem.
Unless a field has been re-registered, burning will not be permit
ted. A $1 per acre fee must be paid at the time of registration. Another
$2.50 per acre will be collected for acreage actually burned.
Bus riders take shelter
Eugene bus riders now have places to come in out of the rain. The
first six of eighteen new passenger shelters were installed last week by
the Lane Transit District (LTD).
The shelters, which cost a total of $45,295, were constructed of
three plexiglass panels installed in a cement floor with a plexiglass
covering. TTte interior seating is made of hemlock.
Originally scheduled for completion in May, a delay at the man
ufacturer postponed the installations until last week. Each shelter was
built for an average of $2,500 with funds from a grant through the
Urban Mass Transit Administration and local share funds.
New shelters are located at Gilbert Shopping Center, Riviera
Shopping Center, Celeste Campbell Senior Center, 10th Avenue and
Willamette Street, 10th Avenue and Olive Street, 28th Avenue and
Willamette, Street, Oakway Road and Coburg Road, 16th Avenue and
Arthur Street, 18th Avenue and Chambers Street, 18th Avenue and
Willamette Street, 8th Avenue and Park Avenue, 58th Avenue and
Main Street, 8th Avenue and Garfield Street, Mohawk Boulevard,
Olympic Avenue, and 23rd Avenue and Main Street.
No shelters are planned during the next year.

Chemistry prof
receives grant
to aid research
University chemistry professor
Virgil Boekeiheide has received a
National Science Foundation
(NSF) grant for an on-going re
search project, and a special NSF
grant which will allow him to travel
to Japan to confer with a scientist
there conducting similar re
search.
The NSF has awarded
Boekeiheide $56,000 as continu
ing support for his study of
molecular structure of organic
compounds. In addition, a $7,300
NSF travel grant awarded under
a cooperative science program
between the United States ahd
Japan will allow Boekeiheide and
an associate to visit the Univer
sity of Osaka in Osaka, Japan for
discussions with Soichi Misumi, a
scientist conducting a similar re
search project.
A long-range goal of the re
search, Boekeiheide said, is to
construct an organic compound
which would display at normal
temperatures the high
performance or “super
conducting" properties which
some metals display at extremely
low temperatures. Such a com
pound would be useful to society
as an efficient conductor of elec
tricity and other forms of energy,
he said.

Fishermen to get notices
Hearing notices for Coos Bay fishermen are going out this month
from Oregon Sen. Bob Packwood and the United States Senate
Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee.
Packwood, a member of the Commerce Committee, said the pur
pose of the hearing would be to learn what problems fishermen are
encountering with foreign fishing vessels, the 200-mile zone enforce
ment, and to gather ideas on developing and maintaining United
States fishery resources.
Many problems confronting the American commencal fishing in
dustry Packwood is expected to hear include dangerous maneuvers
by foreign vessels to scare American ships from prime fishing
grounds, garbage dumping at sea by foreign ships and the violation of
preferred fishing areas inside the 200-mile limit by foreign fishermen.
The hearings are scheduled for some time in August, with the
place and time to be set next week.
Packwood was in Oregon over the week-long Congressional
Fourth of July recess.
