Supporters say the proj- ects would create jobs and generate revenue for local governments. They also say exporting large amounts of coal to Asia would have a negligible effect on global greenhouse gas emissions. At each stop on the totem pole route, the tribe will present the pole to the community at a meeting with environmental activists, faith leaders and local residents. The tribe will offer the totem pole to the Northern Cheyenne Nation at Otter Creek in Montana. That tribe will then take over the pole and will take it on another three-week journey to oppose the coal expansion. Afterward, it will be placed upright at a totem pole raising ceremony on the Cheyenne Nation’s reservation. Shown are noon positions of weather systems and precipitation. Temperature bands are highs for the day. -10s -0s showers t-storms Feds release extra water to save salmon from disease PORTLAND (AP) — Portland will spend more than $900,000 this year in an effort to tackle homelessness. The Oregonian reports Mayor Charlie Hales announced Thursday that the city plans to get at least 50 people off the streets this year by cooperating with Cascadia Behavioral Health, the Urban League of Portland and the Native American Rehabilitation Association. The social service providers, with the help of police, will focus on the most vulnerable of the homeless population, with an emphasis on African Americans and those suffering from mental illness. The city also plans to add a new hotline and storage lockers for homeless people. The mayor says more money is needed to provide shelters, affordable housing and mental health care for the more than 2,000 people sleeping outside in Multnomah County. GRANTS PASS (AP) — With water scarce in Northern California’s Klamath Basin, a federal agency is again releasing cool clean water into the Klamath River to SUHYHQWDUHSHDWRIWKH¿VKNLOOWKDW left tens of thousands of adult salmon dead. The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation said releases started Friday from Lewiston Dam on the Trinity River, the Klamath’s primary tributary, and would continue into late September. Similar releases were done the last three years. They come from water that is shared with farms in the Central Valley. The releases were sought by the Hoopa Valley and Yurok tribes and Humboldt County to prevent an outbreak of a gill- rotting disease known as Ich, which spreads in low, warm water. The cooler and rising water spurs salmon to swim upstream to spawn. 10s rain 20s flurries 30s 40s snow 50s ice 60s cold front 70s 80s 90s 100s warm front stationary front 110s high low National Summary: Storms will drench parts of New England and the South today.
