tion of Oregonians has been
exemplary, according to offi
cials in the Governor's office

LIGHTING DURING ENERGY
EMERGENCY
Executive Order No EO -73-5
declared an energy emergency
in the State of Oregon The
people of Oregon were requested
to respond affirmatively and
voluntarily to this crisis The
current patterns of voluntary
energy conservation have been
encouraging, but the voluntary
reduction in energy use is not by
itself sufficient to avoid abrupt
and widespread interruptions of
electrical power which would
seriously impair the health,
safety and welfare of the citizens
of the State of Oregon if further
substantial savings of energy
are not effected Executive
Order No EO - 73 - 5 is hereby
incorporated in this Order by
reference.

IN TESTIMONY WHEREOF,
I have hereunto subscribed my
name and caused to be affixed
the great seal of the State of
Oregon. Done at Gleneden
Beach. Oregon, this 23rd day of
September, 1973
Tom McCall
Fred Kaboe, state highway
engineer and administrator of
the Highway Division asked
local government officials in
Clackamas. Columbia, Mult
nomah and Washington Counties
September 21 for assistance in
selecting highway projects to
receive financing as part of a
$15« million bond program
authorized during the last le
gislative session
In a meeting held at the CRAG
Building. 640« SW Canyon Court,
Portland, Klabo«“ said that the
Highway Division was anxious to
receive local help in determining
the best use of the $26,535,000
allocated to the state’s 2nd
administrative district The 2nd
administrative district includes
C lackam as, Multnomah and
Washington Counties
Klaboe advised local officials
that, “While the newly created
T ransportation Commission
must by law bear final respon
sibility in the decision-making,
the commission believes local
assistance assures the best pos
sible project selection."
He also expressed hope that
expected cooperation between
all units of local government will
go a long way in strengthening
the role of the regionally orien
ted administrative districts
Local officials should have no
difficulty identifying enough
highway improvement projects
in the area to make use of the
TOWN TOPICS
$26 5 million local share Klaboe
noted that the Highway Division
has a ready back-log of $500
million in critical needs iden
tified on the stule highway
system
"The $150 million will make
only a small dent," Klaboe said,
"but it will be a welcome
shot-in-the-arm."
He noted that Oregon road
users are well aware of a
number of critical deficiencies in
the state highway system and
have every right to expect that
this money will be used wisely to
improve driving safety und ef
ficiency.
Klahiie also requested local
governm ents to incorporate
meaningful citizen participation
techniques in identifying their
highway projects and priorities
He expressed hop«“ that local
officials will be creutive in
providing for full participation
by all citizens and interest
groups
He pointed out that local
citizen advisory committees,
well-publicized town hall m«»et
mgs, and the avuilability of
technical staff to aid citizens can
be productive mechanisms for
obtaining citizen imput
The highway administrator’s
visit to Portland is another in the
series that h«“ is muking to the 14
administrative districts during
the months of August and Sep
teniber to discuss highway plun
ning under the bond program
