Recent flood conditions means boaters should be extra cautious Recent historic snowfall fol- lowed by warmer, wet condi- tions have set up the perfect scenario for potential flooding on area rivers. With flooding comes debris flows with trees, root wads, and other material that can impact the safety of boaters on the water. The Oregon Marine Board and marine law enforce- ment strongly urge boaters to take the following precautions: • Make sure the boat ramp is open for launching. The Marine Board is work- ing closely with facility man- agers and will include closure information on the Boat Oregon Map. • Scout the river before run- ning it. Rivers are dynamic, Breaking news, photo galleries and MORE!

Be sure your skills and experience are equal to the river and the conditions. • Fill out a digital float plan and print out a copy to let oth- ers know where you are boat- ing and when to expect your return. The digital form, when submitted, sends an email to the Marine Board that can be used later to aid marine law enforcement should a boater need help.

The best way to get to know me is to come spend some time with me at the shelter. It takes some patience, because I am a little anxious around new people, but I will warm up to you once I know that you are there to see me, and especially if you have a few treats! Over time I bond very closely to one person, and see it as my job to be near you and be your constant, loyal companion. This means that I will adapt best to a single-person household where I can have you all to myself. If you have the patience to take the time to get to know me and let me get to know you at my pace, I will be your most loyal and constant friend. I love going on walks, or relaxing around the house - as long as you are with me I am happy. I am very smart and respond well to verbal commands, and want nothing more than to please my person. If you would like to meet me, or fi nd out more about me, please call the shelter.

Hunters who fail to report 2016 deer or elk tags on time will be penalized $25 when they purchase a 2018 hunting license. This penalty is assessed once, regardless of the number of unreported tags. As of Jan. 10, about 53 per- cent of elk tags and 51 percent of deer tags had been reported for hunts with a Jan 31 report- ing deadline. ODFW will be sending reminder postcards to hunters who haven’t reported yet later this month. “The information hunters provide is needed to evaluate hunting seasons and tag num- bers,” said ODFW Game Program Manager Tom Thornton. “We really appreci- ate hunters taking a few min- utes of their time to complete the report.” ODFW used to get this data through phone surveys but these became more difficult and expensive as hunters moved or screened their calls. The mandatory reporting program was put in place in 2007 so these calls could be phased out. A penalty of $25 was added four years ago because even after several years promoting the program and providing incentives to report, only about 40 percent of tags were being reported on time. The funds generated by penalty fees are being used to increase Oregon State Police patrol and enforcement of win- ter range closures in Oregon.
