Roseburg Forest Products has about 300 employees. Douglas County Commis- sioner Susan Morgan drove the point further by talking of how county residents rise and fall with its economy. The county, like much of southwestern Oregon, has high rates of substance abuse, domestic violence, child poverty and more, she said. Timber and wood prod- ucts jobs comprise about 30 percent of jobs in Douglas County, Morgan said. And, according to Wyden, there are about 32,000 employees in those ields throughout the state.

The headline should have read “FAA releases UAV rules.” The article misstated the highest altitude small drones are allowed to ly. It is 400 feet.

The trial of Ammon Bundy and seven others charged in the 41-day occupation of Malheur National Wildlife Refuge is scheduled to start Sept. 7. U.S. District Court Judge Anna Brown said at a status hearing Wednesday she anticipates 30 potential jurors to be questioned on the irst day, followed by additional 30-person groups during morning and afternoon sessions the following two days. If the jury comes together by then, opening statements would begin Tuesday, Sept. 13. Assistant U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Barrow told Brown he expects his opening statement to take 45 minutes to an hour. The defense did not provide such an estimate. Five of the eight defendants have lawyers and the others are representing themselves. Ex-reporter pleads not guilty in uncle’s death MEDFORD (AP) — A southern Oregon woman has pleaded not guilty to manslaughter charges in the fatal shooting of her uncle. Tucker Reed was arrested last week after deputies responded to a home near the Jackson- Josephine county line and found the body of 63-year-old Shane Moore. The Mail Tribune reports that Reed’s mother said last week that her daughter was protecting her during the shooting. The 25-year-old Reed worked as a newspaper reporter earlier this year. She posted bail and her next court date is Aug. 15. Cottage Grove man found guilty of shooting at deputies EUGENE (AP) — A Cottage Grove man has been found guilty of trying to kill three Lane County sheriff’s deputies outside a home last September. One of the deputies, Todd Olson, was hospitalized after Carlos Roa shot him in the area of his groin and upper leg. The Register-Guard reports that Olson embraced his wife in the courtroom after the unanimous verdict was announced Tuesday. Roa could face decades in prison when he is sentenced next week on three counts of attempted aggravated murder. He testiied last week that he does not remember shooting at deputies.

And, on July 19, 25 U.S. senators signed a letter commending the American ambassadors for work in negotiations. “A strong lumber industry is essential to the U.S. economy, and securing fair trade in lumber is of critical importance to domestic lumber manufacturers and their workers, as well as tree farmers and landowners, and the communities they support,” wrote U.S. Sen. Mike Crapo, R-Idaho. Should talks stall, it would be particularly problematic for timber-reliant commu- nities like Douglas County. Wyden went so far as to call the area, “near the epicenter of the debate,” during his remarks. “What we’re seeing at Roseburg is being replicated all across the country,” Wyden said. “We’re seeing executives, union folks, people all across the political spectrum — Democrats and Republicans — coming together because what is on the line is the ability to 7 8 a.m. 10 a.m. Noon 2 p.m. 4 p.m. 6 p.m. Copyright © 2016, EO Media Group Lo 57 49 45 51 46 54 48 54 61 53 45 53 50 57 50 52 63 60 59 57 45 52 61 48 55 65 57 (in mph) Didn’t receive your paper?

According to Grady Mulberry, CEO of Roseburg Forest Products, lumber from Canada is up 43 percent since the deal expired and prices have been driven down by nearly 25 percent. “It’s certainly very impactful on Oregon mills like ours and it certainly makes it very hard for us to compete,” Mulberry said. The last agreement was established in 2006, but trade deals over lumber between Canada and the U.S. date back to the 1980s. Domestic lumber companies have contended that harvests up north were aided by subsidies from the Canadian govern- ment and created a product too cheap for local companies to compete with. But the pact expired last fall, bringing along with it a one-year freeze on trade tariffs and paving the way for Canadian companies to import freely until this October. With that deadline approaching, some fear what will happen to the domestic market if a deal isn’t struck soon.
