Pilot Rock native aims to take on garbage business By PHIL WRIGHT East Oregonian Pilot Rock is on the verge of having a new garbage collection business. Pilot Rock native Jimmy Doherty offered to buy Pilot Rock Sanitation and rename it Eastern Oregon Waste Management. The city council last month approved transferring the sanitation franchise to the new company, and Umatilla County Board of Commis- sioners on Wednesday approved Doherty’s appli- cation for a new franchise. The county board also renewed solid waste franchises for three other garbage businesses: Desert Wind, Inc., Hemiston; Humbert Refuse and Recy- cling Inc., Milton-Free- water; and Pendleton Sanitary Service Inc., Pendleton. Before Doherty can start operating May 1, he will have to show proof of having liability insurance, which he said he is con¿- dent he will obtain. Susan McHenry chairs the county’s Solid Waste Committee. She told the board there has not been a new waste service franchise in the county for years, and even had to dig through old ¿les to ¿nd the paperwork required to do so. The waste committee on April 5 approved it with the insur- ance caveat. Doherty said he plans not to change collection rates for a year and keep both of Pilot Rock Sanita- tion’s employees. Jimmy is the son of Pilot Rock City Councilman Raymond Doherty. He said he worked in his father’s two businesses, Doherty Fence and then RDF “I just plan on stepping in and taking over daily operations. That’s pretty much it.” — Jimmy Doherty, owner of Eastern Oregon Waste Management Troughs, an aluminum tank manufacturing operation. The younger Doherty said he managed the latter for more than two years before taking a job with Union Paci¿c. While the railroad pays better, Jimmy Doherty said it was not what he wanted. “I just kind of missed the small business end of things,” he said. Jimmy told commis- sioners the transition will be simple. “I just plan on stepping in and taking over daily operations,” he said. “That’s pretty much it.” ——— Contact Phil Wright at pwright@eastoregonian. com or 541-966-0833.
