Bf FRANCES ROSE WILSON
IRRIGON Bonrdman Soil and
Water Conservation District held
1U annual business meeting
Feb. 10 at the Irrlgon Lion's
Club building. A dinner was
served to 70 people. Guest speak
er Rupert Kennedy, manager of
Tort of Morrow predicted a pop
ulation growth in the area due
to agriculture development, in
dustry and pleasant living con
ditions. In county planning Irrl
gon Is recognized for Its home
sites, and development of more
housing Is recommended.
Maxwell Jones, chairman, and
also manager of West Extension
Irrigation District, gave a report
of the year's program. Approxi
mately 1.000 acres were brought
under cultivation last year, with
another 1,000 acres being devel
oped this year in the area. The
Ulman pumping plant at Uma
tilla has helped to make this
possible, according to Jones.
The need for zoning was em
phasized. There are certain land
use problems which can be
avoided by proper zoning before
an influx of population. Senate
bill No. 10 requires that by Dec.
31, 1927, all cities and counties
be zoned. Tentative plans lor
the area includes an Agricultur
al Park to be located West of
Ordnance ..with feed mills, pack
ing plants, grain elevators and
other industry related to agriculture.
Concerning the proposed In
dustrial Park on the Columbia
River in the Boardman area, and
the nuclear plant site, Mr. Ken
nedy pointed out that there are
only 2 bodies of water in the
Northwest large enough to han
dle the cooling process of a nu
clear plant. These are the Ocean
and the Columbia River. The
climate of Eastern Oregon is
ideal, since a great deal of mois
ture is put into the atmosphere.
The dry climate here would soon
dissipate the moisture that
would produce unwanted mist
on the Coast.
Mr. Kennedy said he expect
ed Shell will be irrigating by
1971. Their 12,000 acres are
southwest of Ordnance in Mor
row County.
A Port of Morrow brochure
was made up a year ago and
has been sent to interested par
ties throughout the United
