Business
owners eligible
for aid
Gretchen Sorensen, regional
administrator of the U.S. Small
Business Administration (SBA)
has announced that small
business owners in Morrow
and Umatilla counties are now
eligible for low interest loans to
offset economic losses because
of reduced revenues to farmers
and ranchers caused by heavy
rain, flash flooding, hail and
high winds, which occurred
from Feb. 1-July 19, 1995.
According to Sorensen, small
non-farm businesses, including
"M ain Street" businesses and
small agricultural cooperatives,
may qualify for SBA disaster
loans to offset the adverse
economic impact caused by
reduced revenue to farmers
and ranchers due to the storms.
Enterprises primarily engag
ed in farming or ranching are
ineligible for disaster assistance
under this declaration. How
ever, assistance may be avail
able from the Farm Service
Agency.
Information and application
forms may be obtained by
writing to SBA, P.O. Box 13795,
Sacramento, CA 95853-4795, or
by

paired individuals may call

DISTRICT
LONE STAR SALVAGE
ENVIRONMENTAL
ASSESSMENT
On May 9, 1996, Delanne
Ferguson, Heppner District
Ranger, decided to implement
Alternative 2 of the Lone Star
Salvage Environmental Assess
ment. This alternative will re
sult in two timber sales in Mor
row County, Oregon: Lone
Star Salvage (harvesting 3.9
million board feet from 1,155
acres) and Hitching Post Sal
vage (harvesting 1.7 million
board feet from 506 acres).
Roadside hazard tree removal
will occur along 9 miles of haul
routes. Four miles of FS Road
2107 will be reconstructed to
add rock to the roadbed and
improve drainage. Fourteen
miles of temporary roads will
be reopened or constructed. All
temporary roads will be obli
terated after harvest is com
pleted. This alternative will
recover economic value from
dead and beetle-infested trees;
improve safety and accessibili
ty, and reduce cost of main
tenance along travel routes;
and reduce fuel levels and con
tinuity to help control wildfires
when they occur.
There is an identifiable sal
vage component (harvest of
dead trees would occur on 97%
of the acres). As such, the deci
sion for this project is exempt
from appeal.
If you would like a copy of
the Decision Notice or have any
questions, please contact Betsy
Kaiser at (503) 676-9187.
