Young salmon risk ‘gas bubble
trauma’ on trip to Pacifi c Ocean
Cannon Beach considers
time limits on parking
Potentially
lethal problem
at spillways
Details still
under review

BOISE, Idaho — Young
salmon and steelhead migrat-
ing from the Columbia River
Basin in unusually high fl ows
face a potentially lethal prob-
lem in spillways at dams
where increased nitrogen
in the water can cause tis-
sue-damaging trauma.
However, managers of
fi sheries say special features
at dams meant to reduce nitro-
gen will help the fi sh make
it to the ocean, and survival
should be about average based
on previous high-fl ow vyears.
Like natural waterfalls, a
dam’s spillway increases dis-
solved gas, including nitro-
gen, in water when it smashes
CANNON BEACH —
Looking to make more effi -
cient use of parking spaces
downtown, Cannon Beach
may set time limits.
The City C ouncil voted last
week to change the wording
of an ordinance to clarify that
a driver moving a car within
the same block or parking lot
does not count as starting over
with a new time limit. The old
language was less specifi c,
and defi ning it allows the city
to enforce parking rules , C ity
M anager Brant Kucera said.
“It basically prevents musi-
cal cars,” he said.
The change, which was
passed unanimously on Tues-
day , was inspired by a goal
in the city’s strategic plan
to create 50 parking spaces

into other water below. The
nitrogen can cause bubbles
to form inside fi sh, similar to
the condition that human div-
ers experience when they get
the bends.
The standard for total dis-
solved gas considered safe for
fi sh is 110 percent. Dams on
the Columbia and Snake riv-
ers have been near or above
120 percent in recent weeks.
“We’re seeing elevated
symptoms of gas bubble
trauma,” said Ritchie Graves
of the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration.
“But I wouldn’t say some-
thing horrible is happening at
this stage.”

A Warrenton man has been
arrested in connection to a
series of “peeping Tom” inci-
dents at the Surf Pines gated
community.
Beginning in January
2016, Kirk Richard Cazee,
55, allegedly peered into
bedrooms of multiple young
women . He also allegedly
recorded the women as they
dressed, slept and engaged
in personal activities. Of the
fi ve total alleged victims,

often anecdotally, but until
you count cars you can’t say
empirically what kind of park-
ing problem we have,” Kucera
said.
Where timed parking will
be located, how long it will
be and whether or not it will
be applied seasonally just for
the summer months are still all
options to be discussed after
the study. Parking enforcement
would still be under the juris-
diction of the Cannon Beach
P olice D epartment.
“All this ordinance does is
allow us to explore what works
and what doesn’t,” Mayor Sam
Steidel said during the C ity
C ouncil meeting.
City C ouncilor Nancy
McCarthy voted to adopt the
ordinance, but requested the
council be a part of the dis-
cussion on exactly where
and when rules would be
implemented.
“I think there needs to be
a lot of notice for the public,”
she said.

downtown .
The solution to that, Kucera
said, is contracting out a park-
ing study to evaluate the per-
centage of time parking spaces
are vacant . A consulting fi rm
already has started counting
cars on Spruce and Hemlock
s treets between First and Third
avenues.
“What will happen is by
timing parking we will create
more spaces. It will be a more
effective and effi cient use of
space,” Kucera said.
A report is expected by
mid-May outlining an accu-
rate picture of how parking is
used downtown. Then a cal-
culation factoring the differ-
ence between the occupancy
without timed parking versus
occupancy in a timed space
will determine the vacancy
rate, which translates into the
number of new parking spots
created.
The cost of the study is
capped at $13,700 .
