The studies include an assessment of . the impact of the Columbia River I hydropower system on salmon survival in the estuary and the ; nearshore Pacific Ocean environment. The studies are intended to gather ; information and review current scientific theories about salmon recovery for use by regional decision makers. The Council recommend the three research projects for funding by the Bonneville Power Administration in Fiscal Year 1998. Bonneville is the federal agency that sells electricity generated at federal dams on the Columbia River and its tributaries. With a portion of its revenues, Bonneville also funds the Council's Columbia River Basin Fish and Wildlife Program, which is designed to mitigate the impact of dams on fish and wildlife.

The Red Cross today released the following 13 important safety tips for parents to keep in mind and share with their trick-or-treaters to prevent injuries. Red Cross Halloween Safety Tips: ' Walk, slither and sneak on side walks; not in the street. Look both ways before crossing the streets; check for cars, trucks and low flying brooms. Cross the streets only at corners. Don't hide or cross the street be tween parked cars. Wear light-colored or reflective type clothing so you are more vis ible, (and remember to put reflective tape on bikes, skateboards and October 3, 1997 Happy belated Birthday Mom Margie 0 Love, Cena & Rich October 29, 1997 Happy Birthday Lll Bro Love, Cena, Richard ' October 30, 1997 Happy Anniversary Dad & Mom Don & Martha ,fLove, Cena & Richard October 31, 1997 Happy Birthday Grandma Love, Cena, Rich Happy Belated Birthday Grandma Margie O Love, Lil Rich, Charles, Tyrin Franny O Happy Birthday Uncle Percy Love, Lil Rich, Charles, Tyrin, Franny O Happy Anniversary Tilia & Grandma Don & Martha Love, Lil Rich, Charles, Tyrin Franny O.

Bonneville will review these recommendations, select the contractors to do the work, and manage the studies. Briefly the studies would provide: An assessment of the impacts of development and operation of the Columbia River hydroelectric system on the river's mainstcm salmon spawning and rearing habitat; an assessment of Columbia River Chinook salmon populations and state-of-the-art theories about population structure, and how to apply this knowledge to fish recovery efforts; an assessment of the impact of hydroelectric development and operation on the Columbia River estuary and nearshore plume. In recent years, scientist who have studied the salmon decline in the Columbia River have recommended brooms!) Plan your route and share it with your family. If possible, have an adult go with you. Carry a flashlight to light your way. ; ' Keep away from open fires and candles. (Keep in mind that costumes can be extremely flammable). Visit homes that have the porch light on. Accept your treats at the door and never go into a stranger's house. Use face paint rather than masks or things that will cover your eyes. Be cautious of animals and strang ers. Have a grown-up inspect your treats before eating. Don't eat candy if the package is already opened.

Lots of love from Auntie Leslie & Uncle Kunya initiates projects that protecting and restoring spawning and rearing habitat forcore populations of salmon should be a critical component of restoration efforts. These scientist also recommended that more needs to be learned about the nature of salmon spawning and rearing habitat in the Columbia River, how productive the habitat is or was, and where it is located. In addition to this information, the studies will give the Council a better understanding of historic salmon population structure in the mainstcm of the river, what might be done to protect and restore the habitat and the potential effects of protection efforts on salmon populations. The Council is an agency of the states of Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Washington and is charged by the Northwest Power Act of 1980 with developing a program to protect, mitigate and enhance fish and wildlife at the Columbia River Basis, and also plan to afford the region an adequate, efficient, economical and reliable electric power supply.

Sandra Parents offered tips on alcohol prevention Quick Tips for Parents Talk with your child about alcohol. Parents can intervene to help change mistaken ideas their children may have obtained from peers and the media, such as "everybody drinks". Learn to really listen to your child. Children arc more likely to communicate when they receive positive verbal and nonverbal cues that show their parents are listening. Help your child feel good about himself or herself. Self-regard is enhanced when parents praise efforts, as well as accomplishments, and when they correct by criticizing the action rather than the child. Sunnyside involved in by Starla Green Community Policing Officer Crime Prevention Month is upon us. It is a good starting point for YOU to recognize and congratulate the Sunnyside Community for successfully starting their Neighborhood Watch Group. The first meeting was held at the end of the September and the second one is scheduled this month. So far they have great plans and goals for the future of their community. I believe that with the community becoming actively involved with Neighborhood Watch, the small housing community will become united and a choice place to For more information on these and other Red Cross Safety Courses, and for volunteer opportunities please call 382-2142 or stop by the chapter office in the Mountain View Mali or at B lood center, 3 82-4630 in the Twin Knolls Retail Center across from COSTCO. Color your Boo Mask, no rules here. Color it any way you like! Cut out your Boo Mask by cutting along the dotted line. Punch holes in the black circles and tie yarn or string to adjust to fit. Cut eye hole to fit your face. Have a safe and drug-free Halloween. Boo Coloring Mask compliments of Community Health Education Team. Help your child develop strong values. A strong value system can give children the courage to make decisions based on facts rather than pressure from friends. Know w hat to do if you suspect a problem. Parents can learn to recognize the tell talc signs of alcohol abuse and experimentation. Help your pre-teen deal with peer pressure. Children who have been taught to be gentle and loving may need parental "permission" to assertively say "no" to negative peer pressure. Make family policies that help your child say "NO". It's helpful when parents clearly verbalize Neighborhood Watch live. Also with all the extra eyes watching and the increase of home security, I believe that the crime rate will dramatically decrease. Let's watch the Sunnyside Community grow in strength from their unity and involvement with Neighborhood Watch. The rest of the community can also become involved in a Neighborhood Watch group and start taking back their community a little at a time. A little at a time is all it takes, because it is always a little better than it used to be. Let's start a group in your neighborhood. It's time to take back our community.;.Togethcr!!!
