The Department of State Lands relies on the state’s forestry department to man- age 33,073 acres of land that are required to gener- ate revenue for the Com- mon School Fund, which is essentially an endowment for public education. The state land board — Gov. Kate Brown, Secretary of State Dennis Richardson and Treasurer Tobias Read — last week approved the department’s request to look into alternative management schemes for those forests. DSL Interim Director Vicki Walker, who has been at the helm of the agency since March 1, had suggested exploring other options for forest management. The idea is for the depart- ment to figure out whether it might be more economi- Oregon Department of Forestry The Oregon Department of State Lands is investigating whether counties or private entities might more cheap- ly manage Common School Fund forest land. The Elliott State Forest, pictured here, is part of that land. cal to have independent log- ging companies or counties manage Common School Fund forest lands, which are located in 18 counties. “I’m trying to find the best way to run the program at low cost, keeping in mind our fiduciary responsibility,” Walker told the board last week. That request was prompted by the $4.82 mil- lion the forestry depart- ment has asked for in the next budget to manage those lands. That would be a $1.55 million increase from the current budget. That includes the pro- jected cost of fire protection. The land board approved that request to keep the lengthy budget process going, but the department will also look into alterna- tives over the summer, an effort that Brown and Read appeared to support. “I would not presume to know what the results of that inquiry will reveal,” Read said. “I think it will be important for this board to be able to consider that, but it seems to me we’d be in a stronger position with more information.” IPO threatens legal action if nominee not in debates By PARIS ACHEN Capital Bureau SALEM — The Inde- pendent Party of Oregon has threatened legal action if organizers of several upcom- ing gubernatorial debates exclude their nominee, Pat- rick Starnes. “I hope we don’t have to come to court,” Starnes said Monday. “I would rather just come to the debates.” Starnes, a cabinet maker from Brownsville, won the IPO nomination earlier this month. He is up against Democrat incumbent Gov. Kate Brown and GOP nom- inee Rep. Knute Buehler of Bend. Starnes said he has not been invited to participate in any debates or forums involving his opponents. Under Oregon law, unless the organizers of any pub- lic forum or debate invite all major-party candidates for the office they are required to report the cost of the debate and advertising for the debate as an in-kind campaign con- tributions to the candidates who were invited. The IPO became Oregon’s third major political party in 2015 after party members made up more than 5 percent of voters who turned out for the 2014 general election. “Our party intends to pursue all state and fed- eral remedies avail- able to us to ensure our candidate’s par- ticipation in these debates,” said IPO Co-Chair Rob Harris. Starnes Last week, Bue- hler announced that he had accepted invitations for debates and forums hosted by the Oregon Newspa- per Publishers Association, KOBI-NBC TV in Medford, KATU-ABC TV in conjunc- tion with Portland State Uni- versity in Portland, KGW- NBC TV in Portland and the nonprofit Children First of Oregon. Chris Broderick, a spokesman at PSU, said the governor had declined the invitation from PSU and KATU-ABC TV. “As of today we don’t have a debate,” Broderick said. “Hopefully there will be more debates, and we can host one.” None of the other debate and forum organizers were immediately available for comment as of 5 p.m. Monday. The governor has called for three debates but has yet to schedule those events, said Christian Gaston, her campaign communications director. Charitable and educa- tional nonprofit corporations are prohibited from making campaign contributions to support or oppose candidates for public office, under the Internal Revenue Code. Corrections The East Oregonian published incorrect information from Pendleton police identifying Christine Laib of Pend- leton as one of the people officers arrested the weekend of June 8. Instead, she was the person who reported a possi- ble drunk driver and Pendleton officers arrested Christo- pher M. Rhoades, 31, of Pendleton. The East Oregonian published a story June 8 about construction on Orchard Avenue and other streets around Hermiston from July 8-10. Traffic will be disrupted during construction but assistant city manager Mark Mor- gan clarified that one lane of travel will be kept open.
