reverse course.
U.S. Rep. Jason Chaffetz,
R-Utah, said late Wednesday
night that he was withdraw-

After public outcry, the
lawmaker who introduced a
bill to sell 3.3 million acres

The land identifi ed for dis-
posal — meaning sale to pri-
vate entities or states — had
included acreage from 10 dif-
ferent states.

She was walking with her
boyfriend, Shawn Schmock,
50, of Lincoln City inside the
park when she suffered the
condition. Abbott then called
her friend, Steve Moore, 55,
from Nehalem, for assis-
tance. When he arrived,
Schmock was performing
CPR on Abbott. Moore then
called 911. Once medical
personnel arrived, though,
Schmock and Moore left the
scene. Police arrived later,

As another round of winter weather heads
toward the north Oregon C oast and Cascade
foothills in the next couple days, transporta-
tion agencies are preparing to respond to traf-
fi c safety needs.
The Oregon Department of Transportation
will be monitoring updated forecasts Thurs-
day and Friday to see which locations will need
assistance, spokesman Lou Torres said.
The National Weather Service issued a storm
warning earlier this week that included Jew-
ell. A couple inches of snow and some ice are
expected. The forecast also calls for strong east
winds in Astoria and other parts of the North
Coast.
The storm comes after an already historic
winter of snowfall in parts of Oregon. “We’ve
had a lot of practice this winter,” Torres said.
“We’re pretty prepared.”
Workers will switch to 12-hour shifts during
the storm watch so the state can respond to traf-
fi c situations at all times.
In addition to snow plows, workers will lay
down de-icer fl uid — which keeps the road
from freezing — and sand the roads — which
adds traction to already frozen surfaces.
The Department of Transportation will apply
de-icer to some roads ahead of the storm in case
of snow, sleet or freezing rain. But if rain falls
at a specifi c location fi rst, it will wash away the
de-icer and negate its effects. If rain does fall
before other types of precipitation and snow
accumulates, ODOT will then sand affected
roads.
Transportation departments typically try to
avoid sanding roads if possible because they
would then need to spend additional time and
money removing it once the storm passes, Asto-
ria Public Works Director Ken Cook said.
While Astoria is not expected to be affected
by the latest winter storm, the city has three
snow plows, sanders and de-icing fl uid on
standby, Cook said.
When winter weather does hit Astoria,
ODOT responds to affected areas on U.S. High-
way 30, Highway 202 and other commercials
roads. Public Works handles the remainder of
the city.
Two of the city’s steepest hills — Eighth
Street between Franklin Avenue and Grand Ave-
nue as well as 17th Street between Irving Ave-
nue and Harrison Avenue — often are closed to
traffi c during winter weather.
For the past three years, Astoria has bor-
rowed de-icer from ODOT’s tank in Salem. But
demands for ice prevention in the Willamette
Valley sometimes prevents the department from
being able to provide de-icer to cities in other
regions. Astoria Public Works currently is look-
ing into the possibility of purchasing its own
tank, Cook said.

wondering why the two had
left.
“Because they fl ed, we
didn’t know what we were
dealing with,” Lt. Cari Boyd
said.
But police later located
them at Moore’s residence in
Nehalem, and Schmock was
arrested on an outstanding
parole violation warrant. His
original charge was sex abuse.
The two men will not face
additional charges, Boyd said.
