Ht l'P Of (he Kastrrn Oregoninn KOAKDMW The U.S. Armv Corps of F.ngineers is recommending a $150 million new locks project at Bonneville Dam bv 1990. But the locks were needed vesterdav. Gene Pospisil. Portland, chief of the advance engineering section of the Portland District of Ihe Corps, said Wednesdav that the volume of wheat traffic projected for 1990 on the Columbia River bv the Corps "is occuring right now." If barges start carrying coal down the Columbia to export points, "we've got a whole new ballgame." Pospisil told the Mid-Columbia River Ports Task Force that traffic projections had not included coal that may be barged down stream from Boardman. Wheal growers and others have supported new locks at Bonneville because the existing locks are smaller than those at other dams on the Columbia-Snake svstem Bonneville creates a bottleneck "It takes barges as long to lock through Bonneville as it does the rest of the seven locks on the Columbia combined." savs Wes Grilley. Pendleton. executive,vice president of the Oregon Wheat Growers League Wheat growers have been worried about the congestion at Bonneville for several years. The Bonneville locks were the first constructed on the river and are the narrowest of the eight locks Barge tows have lo broken down to go through the locks The new locks would he 86 feet by 675 feet, the same size as those at other dams on the Columbia. Pospisil said a recent sludv ordered by the Department of the Armv showed that charging "congestion fees" would solve no problems but onlv delav the needed enlargement The recommendation bv the Portland District of the Corps is now awaiting action by the Secretary of the Army. As soon as Ihe new locks are authorized and funded, a two-year planning and design studv can start. Pospisil said He estimated construction will take five years. The new locks would be located southwest of Ihe existing locks The design would allow safer approaches bv lughoals and barges Strong cross-currents in the river at Bonnev iiie plague luM ojieralors Wayne Schwnndl. acting manager of Ihe Port of Morrow, said it's possible thai large amounts of coal could he shipped downstream from the Port of Morrow at Boardman. The coal would arrive at Boardman bv rail FAMILY FREE MEALS AND SIZE FREE MILK 1 $ 5,700 2 7.220 3 8,730 4 10,270 5 11.800 6 13.320 7 14.850 8 16,370 Each Additional Family Member INCOME LEVELS REDUCED PRICED MEALS t 8.350 10,730 13,110 15,490 17,870 20,150 22,820 25,000 1.530 2,380 Children from families whose income is at or below the levels shown are eligible for free meals and free milk and reduced priced meals.
