P UBLIC CHECK - POINT TO BE STAFFED TODAY AT ODNRA
Today, Oct. 6, the Central
Coast Ranger District of the
Siuslaw National Forest will be
staffing two public check-
points for off-highway vehi-
cles (OHVs) at the Oregon
Dunes National Recreation
Area (ODNRA).
The purpose of the check-
points is to verify compliance
with existing OHV regula-
tions. Checkpoints will be
located at the Hauser sand
access point and the 10 Mile
Beach OHV route, located
within the ODNRA.
Forest Protection Officers
and Law Enforcement Officers
will be checking for compli-
ance with sound limits estab-
lished for OHVs while in use
at the ODNRA. They will also
be confirming that OHV users
follow other off-road regula-
tions such as use of safety
flags, OHV permit stickers
and OHV safety education
cards.
“The staff at ODNRA has
seen an increase in sound vio-
lations and in volume of com-
plaints from community
members due to noise,” said
Deputy District Ranger Garrit
Craig. “We want to increase
educational awareness around
not just noise levels, but safety
in general and to be consistent
with our enforcement of these
rules. Future checkpoints will
be scheduled throughout the
ODNRA riding areas, along
with active enforcement.”
The Oregon Dunes National
Recreation Area is managed
for multiple recreational uses,
both motorized and non-mo-
torized.
Due to its unique topogra-
phy, varied recreational uses
and proximity to residential
areas, a 93 decibel sound limit
is applied to all OHVs within
the ODNRA.
For more information about
sound regulations at the
ODNRA, visit www.go.usa.

office at 541-271-6000.

Sea-run cutthroat will begin
entering the lower river later
