construct a food processing
park combination injection
system to dispose of outflow
from food processing plants.
At the same time the
commission applied for a
$340.(X)0 grant for water, rail
lilies and roads in the park.
Kennedy said the Port of
Morrow project has high
priority with RDA and other
government agencies. He also
stated that Boardman and the
port district are in a strong
position in the state to quality
for the loans and grants in
August because the port, city
and county have completed
their comprehensive plan
ning Kennedy told the commis
sion the RDA and Gov. Tom
McCall are saying the rural
district has to have utility
cooperation between the cities
and surrounding areas, such
as the local port food process
ing park to develop sewer and
