Salvage Chief: Has the ability to generate drinkable water
Continued from Page A1
A bill introduced in the
state Legislature by state Sen.
Brian Boquist, R-Dallas, is
aiming to bring the ship back
into shape, but this time with
an earthquake and tsunami in
mind. The bill would allocate
$1.9 million for engine and
emergency communications
upgrades, hull repairs and a
Coast Guard inspection.
“We believe there’s a
notion that something has to
stay here and help the pop-
ulace recuperate, and we
believe the Salvage Chief is
that vessel,” Holcom said.
The idea came after Hol-
com received a briefi ng
from the Army about the
impact a major earthquake
and tsunami could have on
the region. One of the con-
cerns after a natural disaster
is debris blocking commerce
on the Columbia River for a
long period of time.
Whether it’s shipwrecked
vessels or even pieces of a
collapsed Astoria Bridge,
debris could infl uence the
region’s ability to export
goods , Holcom said.
Given its placement
between the Astoria and
Longview bridges, Holcom
believes the Salvage Chief is
in a unique position to help .
“There is no other vessel
like it in the region,” he said.
There are other ways
the ship can help, said Don
Floyd, a member of the Sal-
vage Chief Foundation and
longtime crew member. With
fi ve generators on board,
enough power could be pro-
duced to help operate triage
operations on shore when the
electricity goes out.
It also has the ability to
generate drinkable water and
has a helicopter pad on deck
that could be used for rescues
if necessary, Floyd said.
Don Floyd talks
about the inner
workings of the
Salvage Chief in the
engine room.

Port: Knight said Port had no choice but to turn back the grant funds
Continued from Page A1
The grant required a
$660,000 local match the
Port had yet to secure. Knight
informed the state last week
the Port was canceling its
request for the money.
The Port had attempted to
use the state grant as a match
on a larger pot of money it
has been seeking from the
Federal Emergency Man-
agement Agency for 2015
storm damage to the cen-
tral waterfront, but has so far
been unable to prove through
photographic evidence the
damage underneath Pier 2
is attributable to the storms.
The Port had hoped to use
the FEMA money as a local
match for the state grant.
Hunsinger, who took out
an ad in The Daily Asto-
rian on Tuesday to criticize
Knight’s decision, claimed
the Port lied about having a
shovel-ready project when
the agency applied for the
Connect Oregon grant, and
that it allowed more than
$1.5 million in grant funding
to slip away.
“Are we waiting for the
dock to fall in and then say,
‘W e have an emergency?’”
Hunsinger said. “It may
take $8 or $10 million to fi x
everything, but this is a start
in the right direction.”
Knight, objecting to
Hunsinger’s
characteri-
zation, said the Port had
no choice but to turn back
the grant funds because of
delays in getting money
from FEMA and because of
the underlying issues with
Pier 2.
“The real problem is the
ground itself,” he said. “If we
would have used those funds
from ODOT, we would have
been soundly criticized for
knowingly repairing some-
thing that wasn’t the full fi x
of the problem.”
The state grant required
construction on the docks
be completed by 2020, and
turning back the money
rather than letting it expire
will help keep the Port in
good standing for future
applications, Knight said.
“I’m upset about your
mischaracterization of his-
torical events,” Knight told
Hunsinger at one point.
“You have a propensity for
changing history to suit your
needs.”
The Port has previously
estimated it will cost $7 mil-
lion to repair Pier 2 , part
of an estimated $20 mil-
lion in needs along the cen-
tral waterfront. The next step
on the west side of Pier 2 is
spending about $200,000 on
an engineering analysis to
formulate a fi x to the failing
dock, Knight said.
Port Commission Pres-
ident Frank Spence said
he has reached out to the
region’s state and federal
representatives about delays
with FEMA and the agency’s
dire situation.
Knight and Hunsinger’s
back-and-forth over why
the grant was lost continued
until Spence abruptly ended
the workshop .
