Masks lifted on
public transit
The Sunset Empire Trans-
portation District announced
that masks to protect against
the coronavirus are optional
for riders and employees on
buses and in facilities.
The move comes after
a federal judge in Florida
struck down the national
mask mandate for pub-
lic transportation, leav-
ing room for agencies to
determine their own mask
requirements.
The decision was based
on the judge’s ruling, guid-
ance from the Federal Tran-
sit Administration and the
U.S. Transportation Security
Administration’s announce-
ment to make masks
optional, the transit district
said in a statement.
Masks will still be
required on RideAssist vehi-
cles until further guidance is
received, the transit district
said.

ish water, saltwater can cause some
major issues for beavers, especially if
ingested. Ingesting too much saltwater
can lead to a condition called salt tox-
icity. Salt toxicity can cause beavers to
become lethargic and eventually lead to
the animal having seizures. In severe
cases this can also lead to death.

Recently we had the pleasure of res-
cuing this feisty beaver.
First reported as a sea otter, it took us a
few trips up and down the beach to fi nally
locate him. He was originally spotted up
by Sunset Beach but before we could
get to him, he got startled and went back
out into the surf. He swam all the way to
Gearhart b each before hauling back out.
We were able to successfully cap-
ture the beaver and get him to the Wild-
life Center of the North Coast. If all goes
well, once he gets a clean bill of health he
will be released back into the wild. Good
luck little buddy! To learn more or to

North Coast native and

Born in Astoria, Mar-
lantes grew up in Seaside
and attended Seaside High
School, where he was stu-
dent body president. Mar-
lantes also attended Yale
University. He was awarded
a Rhodes Scholarship at
Oxford University and
earned a master’s degree.
His fi rst book, “Matter-
horn: A Novel of the Viet-
nam War,” written in 2010,
was called by the New York
Times “one of the most pro-
found and devastating nov-
els ever to come out of Viet-
nam — or any war.”
It is based on Marlan-
tes’ combat experience as
an infantry offi cer with the
1st Battalion of the U.S.
Marines from 1968 to 1969.
He was awarded the Navy
Cross for leading an assault
on a hilltop bunker com-
plex, which is at the core of
“Matterhorn.”
Marlantes also received a
Bronze Star, two Navy com-
mendation medals for valor,
two Purple Hearts and 10
Air Medals.
His second book, a mem-
oir published in 2011, was
“What It Is Like to Go to
War.” It is about his return as
a civilian and life as a Viet-
nam War veteran.
In
2019,
Marlantes
turned in a diff erent direc-
tion with his novel, “Deep
River,” about the logging
industry, canneries and labor
