Camp will be entirely new
this year, with re-arrangement
of all programs to offer
different experiences. One
new idea is a full day away
from the camp site which will
offer time to explore the
woods and enjoy total outdoor
living. Craft and fun time will
be more in-depth, with each
camper having an opportunity
to choose a particular craft of
interest, and time to complete
a project.
Traditional events such as
campfire singing, games, and
ceremonies will, of course, be
part of the program.
Costs this year are $12.50 for
the first camper in the family,
and $10 for each additional
camper. The bargain for
families was suggested by the
camp committee as they
realize most families are
fighting a battle against infla
tion and they feel all members
should be given every chance
to participate in the outdoor
educational program.
Camp dates are June 24-27.
Members are encouraged to
get their applications in just
as soon as possible. Campers
will be taken on a "first come"
basis! Scholarships by 4-H
Council are available to any
member who might need
financial assistance to attend.
Plans are underway tor
another 4-H British Columbia
Exchange involving Morrow,.

Nelson said he doesn't like
the word "land disposal sites"
in the proposal and would
dislike the county being used
as a dumping ground for the
city of Portland's wastes.
"We want to make sure
there won't be any ill effects
from this," Nelson said.

sludge would be pumped from
the barges to a small lagoon
and from there to potential
agricultural sites. The site
preferred, the EPA says, is a
portion of the Boeing. Agri
Industrial property south
west of the city of Boardman.
Judge Nelson noted that
similar sludge disposal is
being undertaken by Portland
in the Willamette Valley and
in the Vancouver area and
before they give their appro
val to the project, he and other
local officials want to see the
process in action.
The EPA said the major
impact associated with barg
ing the sludge would be a
"potential sludge spill" on the
Columbia River, but if spread
on the soil in Morrow County,
"the liquid sludge would be a
beneficial soil conditioner and
light fertilizer with about four
percent nitrogen." The heavy

The proposed location of the

of Tower Road and south of

As for odor, the EPA con
tends the "stabilized sludge in
slurry or dried cake form will
not emit offensive odors so
long as it is properly handled
and when sludge is applied to
the agricultural lands, three to
eight miles from the city of
Boardman and a half to one
mile from Interstate 80N,
"odors should not be notice
able beyond the immediate
vicinity."
However, the agency notes,
"improperly digested waste
water solids could create a
significant odor problem par
ticularly if sludge is applied
with an aerosol gun." It

The cost reduction
amounted to 34 per cent over

"We are recognizing this as
a great achievement by the
Kinzua management as well
as the continuing efforts by
the employees in the mill."

recommends surface spread
ing and mixing with soil by
injection or tilling to reduce
the aerosols and volatilization.
Proper tilling of the soil
after the sludge application
would alleviate any mosquito
infestation problems, the EPA
report stated.
Under the proposal, the city
of Portland will be required to
pay the annual operating and
maintenance costs of sludge
treatment and dispoal as well
as the local share of the
capital costs. And the city
could receive up to 75 percent

sludge can safely be applied to

"Because of heavy metal '

abandon the application sites
at 20 years and move to a new
location," the report states.
Use of the Boeing property
in Morrow County for liquid
