The Northwest Power Planning
;: Council is initiating three research
t projects to assess salmon populations
and habitat in the Columbia River.
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.
With Bonneville's approval, the

Red Cross offers safety tips for Halloween trick or treaters
With witches, goblins and super
heroes descending on neighborhoods
in Central Oregon, the American Red
Cross offers parents some safety tips
to help prepare their children for a
safe and enjoyable trick-or-treat holi
day. Halloween should be filled with
surprise and enjoyment, and follow
ing some common sense practices
can keep events safer and more fun.
"Most Halloween injuries are pre
dictable and preventable, if parents
and children take some simple pre
cautions," said Bob Alexander, Red
Cross Director of Health and Safety.
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

Planning Council
Council's staff will work with the
Independent Scientific Review Panel,
a group of 1 1 scientists who conduct
an annual review of projects proposed
for funding through the Council's
program, to review proposals for the
three studies and make
recommendations to Bonneville.
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.
For more than 80 years the Ameri
can Red Cross has been a national
leader in health and safety educa
tion. In 1996, the Red Cross enrolled
nearly 14 million people in CPR,
first aid, swimming, lifeguard train
ing, caregiving and HIVAIDS edu

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.

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.

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

office in the Mountain View Mali or

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

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

Impact Aid
As specified in School Board
Policy 911, the District plans to afford
patrons an opportunity to make
comments and recommendations
relative to application for and use of
Section 8003 Impact Aid funds. A
public hearing has been scheduled
specific family rules against alcohol
use by minors and the consequences
of breaking those rules.
Encourage healthy, creative
activities. Hobbies, school events,
and other activities may prevent
children from experimenting with
alcohol, tobacco or other drugs out
of boredom.
Team up with other parents.
When parents join together in support
groups, they can take steps that will
reinforce the guidance they provide
at home.
Be a good role model or example.
Parent's drinking habits and attitudes
may strongly influence their
children's perceptions about alcohol.
Join a
Neighborhood Watch
during a regular School Board
meeting beginning at 7:30 p.m.,
Monday, November 10, 1997, in the
