Yallup balances school, athletics at Corban
Student athlete Karlen Yallup
is almost finished with her first
year o f college. She attends
Corban College in Salem. “I’m
liking it more than I thought I
would,” she says.
Yallup plays basketball, runs
cross country and track. It’s a
m atter o f time m anagem ent
keeping up with classes and ath
letics, she says.
The athletic competition at
college is much more than in
high school, she said. “Practice
is lon ger, the w orkouts are
longer, and there’s more and
better competition.”
Karlen Yallup
She likes Corban, but her
career goal— to become an ar
chitect—will take her to a dif
ferent school next year. She’s
planning to transfer to Lake
Region State College in North
Dakota.
She will continue with basket
ball, cross country and track at
Lake Region.
Her plan all along after high
school was to go to college close
to home for a while and then
move elsewhere. Becoming an
architect will take some time,
Karlen says, as graduate school
for architects, after college, is
four years.
In the field of track, Yallup
is training as a heptathlete, in
volving seven different events,
from running to the javelin and
shot-put.
Like anything worth doing,
she says, “It takes a lot of work
and dedication. But if you work
hard enough anything is pos
sible.”
Karlen is a 2010 graduate of
Madras High School, where she
was an outstanding basketball
player. Her parents are Michael
and Yvette Leecey.

Biomass: air quality and

W arm Springs over the
weekend hosted the Nineteenth
Annual Warm Springs Cougar
All Indian High School Boys
and Girls Basketball Tourna
ment. Here are the results:
Manion.
“There have been significant
strides with air quality control
equipment in addressing this
concern. People see steam com
ing from these projects and pre
sume that it is p o llu tan ts,”
Manion said.
“There are some very strict
standards in place to scrub the
fly ash that cause the pollution
in the process. That material is
collected, not dispersed into the
air. We don’t want to create
more of a problem than we’re
trying to solve.”
A similar biomass plant is
being proposed in K lam ath
Falls.
(Continued from page 1)
The collectors would go out
into the woods and collect log
ging residuals, slashes and other
materials, which are currently
being burned. These materials
would be fed into a chipper and
then transported to the biomass
plant.
As discussions continue, per
mitting is underway. The cul
tural, wildlife and fisheries and
other environmental staff are
looking at the potential impacts.
The air quality perm itting
process, required in order for
the plant to operate, is also un
der way, and would be issued
through the Environmental Pro
tection Agency.
Aspects of the biomass pro
posal that have generated nega
tive comments are increased
traffic to and from the landfill,
and air quality.
“There’s a perception that the
biomass plant would create a pol
lution problem however,” said
