This project will consist of the repair and maintenance o f USFS Road 53 between milepost 24 and 25 and will stay within the existing right-of-way. No realignment will be done outside the current footprint of the clearing. Begin ning on the tangent entering from the eastern end, the grade will be lowered to remove a crest verti cal curve. The excavation mate rial will be placed in the sag ver tical curve to raise the existing grade and bring the grades to gether. This will result in reduc ing the grades and improving sight distance within the project area. Drainages will be relocated to fit with the new profile. There are no wet drainages in the project area. Final grade will be achieved by placement of base rock and hot mix bituminous as phalt. The Decision Memo and as sociated project file are available upon request from the Heppner Ranger District, P.O. Box 7, Hep pner, OR 97836. This decision is not subject to appeal pursuant to Forest Ser vice regulations at 36CFR 215.8 (a) (4). July 7 1997. Published: February 5, 2003 LEGAL/PUBLIC NOTICE DEADLINE Mondays at 5 p.m. Wednesday, February 5, 2003 - NINE W att... B y A/Xerlyn R o b i n s o n about the Columbia disaster. Outer space exploration has now claimed the lives of two different crews, plus one ground accident before lift off. Such a high price to pay for th is en d eav o r. However our military personnel are also laying their lives on the line even during every day maneuvers. So I take issue with all this anti-war propaganda and p eace m arch es. P ro testo rs against a possible war with Iraq certainly have a right to express their opinion; although if they chose national security jobs their efforts could be a more positive way to make a difference. What really bothers me is the people who react to issues w ithout grasping a better understanding of a complex situation. It doesn’t matter if it’s a “save the slug” campaign or a world-wide issue. A re peace m archers content to adopt a “wait and see” policy and hope that the there won’t be another tragedy like the one on Sept. 11 ? The attacks on P resident G eorge W. Bush resemble the same tactics that were used against President Ronald Reagan when he built up our military to protect our country and ended a threat from Russia’s nuclear warheads. Our government must maintain a hard-line approach against terrorism. We can’t stick our heads in the sand and hope that these problems will all go away. No one wants to see our country involved in a Middle East war and put our military forces in h a rm ’s way. B ut th o se European countries that are reluctant to becoming a cohesive force to deter terrorism have somehow forgotten that it was the United States that helped prevent those countries from being ruled by a dictator as an outcome o f World War II. It was also the U.S. that helped rebuild F rance and o th e r w ar-to rn countries following that war. It was the “ no m ore military action” influence that prevented the allied military fo rces from s u c c e s s fu lly stabilizing that part o f the world during the Gulf War. Retired U.S. generals have stated that if they hadn’t been ordered to stop in their tracks, it would have only taken an o th er day to have completely surrounded Iraq’s military forces and cornered that dictator- thus perhaps preventing the current situation. For the past 10 years this country has placated that dictator and played “footsie” after weapons inspectors were banned from that country. Surely, even a high school student can see that O regon’s economic downturn isn’t the fault o f a U.S. President. Let’s put the blame were it lies. Legislators have done very little to solve budget woes in the past year. Oregon voters have vetoed an increase in taxes. Teachers and everyone else wish to earn better wages, but there have been few major cuts when it comes to unnecessary ad m in istrativ e expenses and some agencies’ budgets. As long as this country has an open door policy that allows foreign-made products to undercut American-made goods, causing our industries to fail, we will continue to have a lowering o f o u r sta n d a rd o f liv in g . Americans want better wages and benefits but many fail to u n derstand that w hen U.S. consumers buy foreign goods it creates unemployment in this country. On the positive side, the current rains are a plus for our thirsty land during this spring-like winter w eather. We have so many things to be thankful for and so many great people. Locally positive actions like those o f the lone Youth Group are rew arding. For example, their energy and resources are used to help the less fortunate in the Portland area in addition to local community service accomplishments. It’s time to send Valentines but don’t let arrows cause casualties to a united effort to help stabilize the Middle East region and prevent a holocaust from the use o f chemical or biological agents. Notable calendar events include the beginning o f the Chinese New Year- the Year o f the Ram. However 1 don’t like the ramming tactics o f those w ho try to sway public opinion. So like the unpredictable groundhog, 1 ’m prone to popping up occasionally.
