Blue Mountain Eagle
SALEM — Hunters
who bought 2015 big
game or turkey tags need
to report their hunt results
by Sunday, Jan. 31, for
most tags.
Hunters are required
to report on each deer,
elk, cougar, bear, prong-
horn and turkey tag pur-
chased, even if they were
not successful or didn’t
hunt. Sports Pac license
holders need to report on
each big game or turkey
issued.
For hunts that end be-
tween Jan. 1 and March
31, the deadline is April
15.
The penalty for not re-
porting is $25 upon pur-
chase of a 2017 hunting
license. The penalty is as-
sessed once, regardless of
the number of unreported
tags.
As of Jan. 6, about 50
percent of elk tags, 48
percent of buck deer tags
and 60 percent of antler-
less deer tags had been
reported.
To make a report,
hunters will need the fol-
lowing information:
Hunter/angler ID
number
The two-digit Wild-
life Management Unit
number of the unit most
frequently hunting and, if
it was a successful hunt,
the unit in which an ani-
mal was harvested.
The total number
of days hunting, includ-
ing mentoring youth; the
number of days hunt-
ed in the unit hunted
most; and the number of
days hunted in the unit
in which an animal was
harvested.
Reports can be made
online at reportmyhunt.
com or www.odfw.com.
Those who don’t have
Internet access can call
1-800-947-6339 to talk
to a customer service rep-
resentative from 6 a.m.
to 10 p.m. Pacific Time,
seven days a week.

James Vaughan, front right, listens during a public
hearing about a Grant County commercial pot ban
in December. Although the county approved the
ban for areas outside of incorporated cities, Long
Creek City Council recently voted down a similar
ordinance and signed off on the first step for
Vaughan’s company, Southern Blues Bud LLC, to
grow marijuana in the city.
Porter said, although he
knows some people disagree
with his vote, he said the city
is complying with state law
regarding Measure 91 and
avoiding costly legal chal-
lenges, while also attempt-
ing to boost the economy.
“When I took over as
mayor, you couldn’t buy a
Diet Coke in town on a Sun-
day,” he said. “Now, we’ve
got two stores, a gas station,
a full-service shop. ... We’re
a small town trying to sur-
vive.”
Dan Morrow, who lives
on the property adjacent to
Southern Blues Bud’s pro-
posed grow site, expressed
disappointment the city al-
lowed the potential grower
to move forward in the pro-
cess. He said he was told the
city would enact a ban, so he
did not attend the meeting,
which had been rescheduled
with little notice.
Morrow said, after a large
drug bust in Long Creek
about a year and a half ago,
the town was starting to “get
cleaned up.” Allowing pot
businesses was a step in the
wrong direction, he said.
“The people want a nice,
little town,” he said.

Penalty is $25
for not reporting
2015 tags
application for a land use com-
patibility statement, which is
required before the Oregon
Liquor Control Commis-
sion will grant a marijuana
business license. The appli-
cation, which was approved
unanimously after the ban
was voted down, was sub-
mitted by James Vaughan
for Southern Blues Bud LLC
to grow marijuana. Vaughan
declined to comment.
The business would have
to comply with certain con-
ditions, Porter said, but they
have not yet been “ironed
out.” He said no one he spoke
to was in favor of retail out-
lets, and the city would be
looking at options for other
actions in the future.
