the Hard-Pressed Cider Fest
in Hood River in April 2016.
U.S. sales of cider surged
more than 300 percent
between 2010 and 2015, to
about $870 million, with
Northwest consumers being
particularly keen for the
beverage, according to tes-
timony from the Northwest
Cider Association, which
has 25 members in Oregon.
Rep. Ken Helm, D-Bea-
verton, commended SB
677’s supporters for emulat-
ing existing land use provi-
sions for Oregon wineries,
rather than trying to create a
whole new system for their
industry.
“There’s fewer unknowns
here,” Helm said.
Nobody spoke against
the bill during the commit-
tee hearing, but written tes-
timony submitted by the
Oregon Farm Bureau was
unenthusiastic.
The organization wants
to encourage Oregon’s
cider industry but is con-
cerned “about the breadth
of activities authorized”
under SB 677, much as it
was concerned about pre-
viously enacted rules for
wineries, said Mary Anne
Nash, OFB’s public policy
counsel.
The proposal allows bed-
and-breakfast
operations
and other activities “seem-
ingly unrelated” to agricul-
ture in farm zones, without
requiring cider businesses to
own the orchards, she said.
“This could result in the
development of a produc-
tion facility and business
center that is not actually
part of the farm use on the
property,” Nash said.

cine and public health at Yale
University.
While most safety con-
cerns were not serious enough
to prompt recalls, the fi nd-
ings raise questions about how
thoroughly drugs are tested
before approval, said drug
safety expert Thomas Moore.
But Ross said the results sug-
gest that the FDA “is kind of
doing a great job” at scrutiniz-
ing drugs after approval.
New drugs are generally
life-threatening
conditions
linked with the drugs. There
were also dozens of alerts for
less serious potential harms
and three drug withdrawals
because of the potential for
death or other serious harm.
Among the drugs with
added warnings: Humira,
used for arthritis and some
other illnesses; Abilify, used
for depression and other men-
tal illness; and Pradaxa, a
blood thinner. The withdrawn
drugs and the reason: Bextra,
an anti-infl ammatory medi-
cine, heart problems; Raptiva,
a psoriasis drug, rare nervous
system illness; and Zelnorm,
a bowel illness drug, heart
problems.
Safety issues were most
common for psychiatric drugs
and biologic drugs — made
from living cells rather than
chemicals — than for older
drug types. Drugs brought
to market through “acceler-
ated” approval were slightly
more likely to have later safety
issues than those approved
through conventional chan-
nels, a link seen in some previ-
ous research.

SEDRO WOOLLEY, Wash.
— The National Park Service
has received more than 120,000
public comments on its plans to
reintroduce grizzly bears in the
North Cascades.
A public comment period
began in early January and
was to end March 14 but was
extended to April 28 at the
request of the public and local
offi cials.
More than 120,000 com-
ments were received, and it
will take three to six months
for NPS to process them, said
Denise Shultz, spokeswoman
at the North Cascades National
Park Service Complex in Sedro
Woolley.
An analysis of the com-
ments won’t include how many
were from out of state or how
many are for reintroduction, but
will be more along the lines of
identifying things or alterna-
tives that NPS and the U.S. Fish
and Wildlife Service may have
missed that may need further
data or study, Shultz said.
The comments focus on
a draft environmental impact
statement that includes a no-ac-
tion alternative and three alter-
natives to restore a reproducing
population of about 200 bears
by bringing them in from other
areas.
Restoring grizzlies would
“enhance the probability of
longterm survival and con-
servation of grizzly bears in
the contiguous United States,
thereby contributing to over-
all grizzly bear recovery and
greater biodiversity of the eco-
system,” the agencies have said.
Grizzlies were listed as a
threatened species in the contig-
uous U.S. in 1975. They were
listed as endangered in Wash-
ington state in 1980.
A fi nal environmental
impact statement may come
late this year or early next year,
with a decision a month or so
later, Shultz said.

SALEM — A proposal
to expand allowable activi-
ties for cider businesses on
farmland is sailing through
the Oregon legislature with
minimal opposition.
Imitating rules estab-
lished for wineries, Senate
Bill 677 would permit cider
businesses to produce and
sell their beverages, serve
food and conduct other agri-
tourism activities on-site in
farm zones.
Companies generating
less than 100,000 gallons
of cider a year would have
to be within or next to an
orchard of at least 15 acres
to take advantage of the
provisions.
The orchard size require-
ment would increase to
40 acres for those busi-
nesses producing more than
100,000 gallons annually,
under the bill.
The Senate has unani-
mously approved SB 677
and it’s now heading for a
vote on the House fl oor after
clearing the House Commit-
tee on Economic Develop-
ment and Trade with a “do
pass” recommendation on
May 3.
Cider businesses are sim-
ilar to wineries in terms of
government regulation and
the process of crushing fruit
to make juice that’s then fer-
mented into alcohol, said
Dan Lawrence, founder
of Stone Circle Cider near
Estacada, Ore.
The goal of SB 677 is
to provide cider companies
with the same opportunity to
process and sell their prod-
uct, while educating con-
sumers about how it’s made,
said Lawrence.
“Oregon is in a strong
position to be a leader, if
not the leader, in this indus-
try nationwide,” he said. “It
helps bring dollars and jobs
to the countryside.”
CHICAGO — Almost one-
third of new drugs approved by
U.S. regulators over a decade
ended up years later with warn-
ings about unexpected, some-
times life-threatening side
effects or complications, a new
analysis found.
The results covered all 222
prescription drugs approved
by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration from 2001
through 2010. The researchers
looked at potential problems
that cropped up during routine
monitoring that’s done once
a medicine is on the market.
The 71 fl agged drugs included
top-sellers for treating depres-
sion, arthritis, infections and
blood clots. Safety issues
included risks for serious skin
reactions, liver damage, cancer
and even death.
“The large percentage of
problems was a surprise,” and
they included side effects not
seen during the review pro-
cess, said Dr. Joseph Ross,
the study’s lead author and an
associate professor of medi-
tested fi rst in hundreds or even
thousands of people for safety
and effectiveness.
“We know that safety con-
cerns, new ones, are going to be
identifi ed once a drug is used in
a wider population. That’s just
how it is,” Ross said. “The fact
that that’s such a high num-
ber means the FDA is work-
ing hard to evaluate drugs and
once concerns are identifi ed,
they’re communicating them.”
The researchers analyzed
online FDA data on new drugs
and the agency’s later safety
announcements. Problems sur-
faced on average about four
years after approval. Results
were published Tuesday in the
Journal of the American Medi-
cal Association.
The FDA said in a statement
that it performs post-market
monitoring “to identify new
safety information that may
impact product labeling.” The
agency said it would review
the study fi ndings but declined
to comment further.
The study counted black-
box warnings for dozens of
drugs; these involved serious
problems including deaths or

The Department of Homeland Security's Federal Emergency
Management Agency has issued a preliminary Flood Insurance Rate
Map (FIRM), and where applicable, Flood Insurance Study (FIS)
report, reflecting proposed flood hazard determinations within Clatsop
County, Oregon and Incorporated Areas.These flood hazard
determinations may include the addition or modification of Base Flood
Elevations, base flood depths, Special Flood Hazard Area boundaries
or zone designations, or the regulatory floodway.Technical information
or comments are solicited on the proposed flood hazard
determinations shown on the preliminary FIRM and/or FIS report for
Clatsop County, Oregon and Incorporated Areas.These flood hazard
determinations are the basis for the floodplain management measures
that your community is required to either adopt or show evidence of
being already in effect in order to qualify or remain qualified for
participation in the National Flood Insurance Program. However,
before these determinations are effective for floodplain management
purposes, you will be provided an opportunity to appeal the proposed
information. For information on the statutory 90-day period provided for
appeals, as well as a complete listing of the communities affected and
