Tregoning, Godin to speak at next STEP meeting
Senior Chief Tim Tregoning
of the U.S. Coast Guard
Station, Siuslaw River, along
with Steve Godin, president of
the Oregon Coast Anglers
(OCA), will be the featured
speakers at the Wednesday,
Nov. 2 meeting of the Salmon
and
Trout
Enhancement
Program (STEP).
The meeting begins at 7
p.m. at the Elks’ Lodge on 12th
Street in Florence. The public
is invited to attend and learn
more about STEP and the work
it does in the Siuslaw Basin.
Prior to the speakers, STEP
will hold its annual election for
the board of directors.
There are seven seats open
for the nine member board of
directors.
There will also be informa-
tion about opening the Munsel
Creek trap to monitor the coho
and spawn three to four pair to
collect the 10,000 coho eggs to
raise at the club’s hatchery site
in Florence.
Tregoning has been the offi-
cer at the Coast Guard station,
Siuslaw River, since June,
2015.
Prior to coming to Florence,
he was stationed in Guam.
Tregoning will be discussing
the Coast Guard operations on
the Oregon Coast, including
the decisions around opening
and closing the bar and safety
on the river and in the ocean.
The Coast Guard’s area of
operations runs 16 miles north
to Cape Perpetua and extends
nine miles south to the Siltcoos
River. Its primary mission is
search and rescue for commer-
cial mariners, recreational
boaters and surfers.
Other
responsibilities
include escorting fishing ves-
sels across the bar, marine
environment protection, fish-
eries conservation enforce-
ment, towing and enforcing
boating safety regulations.
The second speaker, Godin,
is president of the newly
formed
Oregon
Coastal
Anglers (OCA) organization.
Godin, who lives in
Reedsport, will share with
STEP the mission and objec-
tive of the group, which
formed out of the Coastal
Conservation
Association
(CCA) of Oregon.
The group is a nonprofit
organization made up of
anglers from Brookings to
Florence uniting to preserve
and increase angling opportu-
nities along the coast.

The federal office of Health
and Human Services has
released funding to the states
for this winter’s Low Income
Home Energy Assistance
Program (LIHEAP).
The LIHEAP program helps
income-qualified households
with their home energy bills in
the winter.
Beginning Tuesday, Nov. 1,
nonprofit and senior services
agencies that administer the
LIHEAP program throughout
Lane County will begin plac-
ing households on LIHEAP
appointment waiting lists.
Interested households may
place themselves on a waiting
list by calling one of the agen-
cies that operate the program.

Lane County has not
received its LIHEAP alloca-
tion yet from the state, but is
anticipating a similar LIHEAP
funding level as last year.
If a household doesn’t get
on the LIHEAP waiting list in
early November, the house-
hold should try again the first
working day of each month all
the way until June.
LIHEAP agencies do re-
open their LIHEAP waiting
lists more than once each year.
To qualify for LIHEAP, a
household’s current gross
monthly income must be at or
below 60 percent of Oregon’s
median income level. A house-
hold of one person can have a
gross monthly income as high
as $1,885 and qualify.
A household of four people
can have a gross monthly
income of $3625 and qualify.
The amount of assistance a
household receives depends
on a number of factors. The
program pays the assistance
directly into a household’s
utility account as a one-time
payment that can range from
$150-$550.
Interested households may
call one of the agencies listed
below to be placed on a wait-
ing list.
Senior citizens, ages 60 and
older, can contact Florence
Senior Connections at 541-
