Road Construction
Status Report
Notice to the citizens who
utilize and enjoy the Willow
Creek (Coat Mine Grade) area:
The
U S.
Dept. of
Transportation lists its planned
construction
activities on
Willow Creek Road for the week
of Monday, July 19:
Tidewater Contractors, Inc.
worked within the limits of the
project with the exception of
hauling material to waste at the
20 mph comer on Monday and
Tuesday. They will be hauling
base aggregate material from the
Summerfield Ridge Quarry site
to the project staging on
Thursday. This site is near the
intersection of Black Mountain
Road and FS 53 Road. There
will be a number of trucks
utilizing the main road between
Black Mountain Road and
Cutsforth Park hauling the
material. Watch for the truck
signs and trucks entering the
mam road near this location.
This is one step closer to the
paving process.
There are still a couple of
culverts that have to be set,
which they will be doing this
week. They are continuing with
the blading of the sub-grade
from Cutsforth Park, working
towards Penland Lake Road
intersection. The surveyors will
continue setting stakes for the
top of sub-grade as they
continue towards the end of the
project. Emergency access
through the project will be
maintained throughout the
construction season.
Willow Creek Road will
remain open to local traffic only,
as far as Cutsforth Park. The
park will remain open through
the normal season. The detour
route through Shaw Creek Road
to the four comers, to Penland
Lake and Ukiah, is and will
remain open to all traffic.
During the 1999 construction
season, Willow Creek Road
(Coal Mine Grade) (FS 53 Road)
will remain closed to through
traffic, from Cutsforth Park to
the intersèction of FS Roads
5350(Texas Pit Road).
Watch for travelers, campers
and wood cutters, observe the
warning signs, including the
speed limit, on thé Shaw Creek
Road detour route, and observe
the barricades at both ends of the
construction zone. Have a safe
summer and remember that the
barricaded road closures are for
the traveling public's safety.
Federal Highways asks the
traveling public for their
patience, consideration and
cooperation, and appreciates
input from the public.

Chamber Chatter
Heppner (ìa%ette- Time*
By Claudia Hugh««, Chamber Manager
Winning baseball teams, swim
lessons, summer camp, picnics,
vacations, preparing for harvest,
strategic planning, gardening,
moving cattle, getting ready for
fair and planning for the second
"Celebrate Heppner" are just a
few of the things occupying our
citizens this summer.
Turns out the Fair Committee
was planning a big evening on
July 30, the same date as
"Celebrate Heppner" and has
offered to give everyone a taste
of Zac Grooms during the
afternoon on the Shamrock.
Great! We're very lucky to have
this young man, thanks to the
Fair Committee. He is on his
way to the big time. Check out
Channel 3 and the Heppner
Gazette for more details. Let's
all get together for a day and
evening of fun in Heppner. . .
town and country in the good old
summertime.
A sense of humor is a valuable
thing to have; it helps you get
through moments such as
walking around town with a
yellow sticky note adhered to a
very prominent place. That’s
when one discovers who her true
friends really are. Those of us in
those situations can survive such
humiliation by knowing that
laughter is the best medicine.
Some of us just accidentally
contribute more than others.
Chamber programs ahead are
CenturyTel, the hospital/nursing
home plan and Jill Miles,
Oregon Economic Development
Department.
See you on
