Corvallis police Lt. Daniel Duncan says the man fled Monday morning, but officers found him near the Benton County Senior Center. He was taken to the hospital after his arrest for reasons that have not been disclosed. He was jailed Monday night. The Gazette-Times reports the man has been identified as 22-year-old Benjamin Bucknell. Benton County Assistant District Attorney Amie Matusko told the newspaper she expects to arraign Bucknell Tuesday on charges of assault, arson, burglary, unlawful use of a weapon and criminal mischief. Deschutes County at center of marijuana battle BEND (AP) — Deschutes County finds itself in the middle of a marijuana tug of war just two and half years since Measure 91 legalized recreational marijuana in Oregon. The Bend Bulletin reported Saturday that due to its unique farmland setup, and its restrictive, discretionary rules governing the growing of marijuana outside of city limits, Deschutes County is in the middle of battles over how, when and where plant owners can grow and produce the crop. Deschutes County Commissioner Tony DeBone says rules established by the county in 2016 help balance the needs of marijuana growers looking to set up shop in rural parts of the county. Both DeBone and Community Development Director for Deschutes County Nick Lelack say Deschutes County is open to revisiting its rules on marijuana production. 30s 40s snow 50s ice 60s cold front 70s 80s 90s 100s warm front stationary front 110s high low National Summary: Much of New England will get a break from the rain today.

So far, 2,050 steelhead have been counted on the Umatilla River at Three Mile Falls Dam, compared to 4,540 around the same time in 2016 and 6,050 in 2015. The 2015 drought is one potential reason for the decline, Jones said, when ODFW temporarily banned fishing for trout, salmon, steelhead and sturgeon after 2 p.m. in most streams across the state. Adult and juvenile fish both had to contend with low flows and high water temperatures that proved fatal for cold water-loving salmonids. Jones also pointed to “the blob,” a mass of warm ocean water off the North- west coast, that may have had an impact on migrating fish populations. “There was not the Corrections The East Oregonian works hard to be accurate and sincerely regrets any errors. If you notice a mistake in the paper, please call 541-966-0818. normal assemblage of nutrient-rich prey,” Jones explained, while adding it is hard to tell how exactly the ocean may have played a role in steelhead levels. Bob Rees, executive director of the Association of Northwest Steelheaders, said the steelhead forecast is evidence that fish are suffering the effects of climate change and hydro dams across the Columbia and Snake river basins. “We’re just having to roll with the punches,” Rees said. “These fish are pretty vulner- able to those environmental conditions that humans have had a hand in.” The Association of Northwest Steelheaders is a conservation and sport fishing advocacy group, and is one of the plaintiffs suing the federal government over its manage- ment of Columbia and Snake river dams to protect salmon and steelhead. That suit has been ongoing since 2001. Rees said this year’s steel- head forecast is nothing short of a crisis, though he said they are confident ODFW will implement proper measures for the season. “There are some pretty important fisheries that are going to be sidelined because we have to protect these fish,” he said. Changes in fishing regula- tions will likely be announced within the next couple of weeks. Wednesday’s ODFW meeting will be held from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the ODFW Northwest Region Office, 17330 S.E.
