Page 18 The INDEPENDENT, June 21, 2007 Did You Know… By Chief Mathew Workman Vernonia Police Department I hope everyone enjoyed the fish- ing, mu- sic, fire- works, and fun at the KUPL Fishing Derby and con- cert. Remember that Cycle Oregon is in town this weekend with a large contingent of rid- ers. Please use extra caution when driving, riding, or walking in and around the Vernonia area. Vernonia is a great com- munity and we welcome every- one to experience safe and re- sponsible events. I recently received a flyer from the Oregon Attorney Gen- eral’s office that I would like to share details from. The flyer applauds the legislature for restoring the authority to en- force Oregon’s “Do Not Call” Law. Senate Bill 117 authorizes the Department of Justice to enforce against violators of the National Do Not Call Registry. Oregon DOJ reports that Ore- gonians registered over 1.6 mil- lion numbers and filed over 15,000 complaints in 2006. SB 117 will allow a maximum penalty of $25,000 per viola- tion. You can learn more about SB 117 by visiting www.leg. state.or.us/bills_laws/. The American Red Cross now offers a new website called “Safe and Well” that can be used during a disaster to no- tify people you are safe. The website provides a way to reg- ister yourself “safe and well” if you have been affected by a disaster. Concerned family and friends can search the list of those who have registered themselves as “safe and well.” The results of a successful search will display a loved one’s First Name, Last Name, an “As of Date”, and the “safe and well” messages selected. The website can be located and utilized at <https://disas tersafe.redcross.org/>. If you have ideas for my arti- cle please contact me at the station, call 503-429-7335, or email me at chief@vernonia-or. gov. I will do my best to address the ideas in future papers.
