Marion County once burned its trash — and generated some of its electrical power   —  using the Reworld incinerator. But since that facility has previously announced it would be closing and stopped accepting residential waste, the county’s garbage is now going to the Coffin Butte Landfill in Benton County. However, as reported in the Statesman Journal, Reworld is challenging state regulations that it blamed on the closure. Regardless, since space at Coffin Butte is limited, Marion County commissioners have already approved the trucking of some of the waste to a landfill in The Dalles in Wasco County. A spokesman for Marion County told OPB that move is scheduled to begin in the next few weeks. Marion County — like many others in Oregon — faces tough choices about how to environmentally dispose of the unwanted materials its residents throw out. We spoke earlier this month about the environmental challenges presented by both landfills and incineration. Joining us to discuss these policies and the financial considerations involved are Marion County Commissioner Kevin Cameron and Environmental Services Division Manager Brian May.  

About a dozen years ago, Wasco County Sheriff Lane Magill became aware of a growing need for treatment services for residents experiencing mental health crises in his county. Faced with a lack of residential care services in the region, he struggled to find help for people experiencing homelessness or veterans who suffered from PTSD. The surge of fentanyl-related overdoses in the county since 2021 also highlighted the link between behavioral health and substance use disorders, and the lack of local treatment options.But that may now soon change. As first reported in the Columbia Gorge News, Magill expects to break ground this year on a new residential treatment facility in The Dalles. It would offer 16 beds to treat residents in Hood River, Wasco and Sherman Counties for substance use disorders, along with a walk-in center for people in mental health crisis. Sheriff Magill joins us to talk about the status of the $50 million project, and the regulatory roadblocks it faces.

It all started back in December... after Fong entered his bid to takeover the seat in congress vacated by Bakersfield's Kevin McCarthy.    However, Fong had already submitted a re-election bid for the state assembly, and California law prohibits a candidate from running in two races at once.    This prompted Secretary of State Shirley Weber to withdraw Fong's name from the ballot.    But Fong says this law shouldn't apply to him, because he doesn't want to run for the state assembly anymore -- only congress.    His name remained on the ballot for both races last month during this back-and-forth legal battle.Residents of an Oildale apartment complex say they were recently served with notices - warning that they will be evicted if they don't get rid of their patio gardens.    17's Mikhala Armstrong reports, most of the people who live there are seniors.The pre-trial conference for the man -- accused of biting a severed leg from a train crash victim in Wasco -- has been postponed. 27-year-old Rosendo Tellez is charged with removing human remains from a location other than a cemetery.    Video shows Tellez with a leg, which belonged to a pedestrian hit by a train in Wasco last month.    Court records show the conference was postponed to April 18th.Set to appear in a Kern County courtroom for the first time today... the man accused of abducting a Bakersfield pre-teen and taking her to Utah.    29-year-old Joshua Stehle is facing several charges including suspicion of kidnapping and child molestation.    An 11-year-old girl was reported missing last month... and when deputies searched a computer at her home, they say they discovered the two had an online relationship.     The girl and Stehle were stopped in Utah... and Stehle was extradited to Lerdo jail earlier this week. 

Police in Kern County, California arrested 28-year-old Rosendo Tellez on March 22, 2024 after they were called to the Amtrak station in Wasco after a person had been hit by a northbound train.

We're going to go through the steps in this Mad Max run-up. You know Letitia James, she is seeking to destroy the political opposition of the Democrats. Of course she is corrupt. The American Irish Historical Society falsified the worth of their properties, took out loans on the falsified worth, and then didn't pay the loans back. This is exactly what President Trump has been accused of and what Letitia James is trying to prosecute him for, but he is not going after the society and in fact, defended them. Another step in this Mad Max run-up is what is happening at the southern border. If you don't have laws you have moods. When you are ruled by mood, pretty soon you are ruled by mob. The next step would be to limit our access to fuels and food. Oh wait, they are doing just that. What does God's Word say? Romans 7:1818 For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature.[a] For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.Galatians 5:19-2419 The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20 idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. 24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.Episode 1,487 Links:Rep.

Some of today's top storiesMany in Wasco are in disbelief this morning... after watching a bizarre video of a man walking around with a severed body part from a train crash. Here's what we know.    This happened Friday morning in Wasco.    When first responders arrived... the pedestrian was found dead.    What led up to the crash is still under investigation.    By our count... this was the 15-th pedestrian death in Kern County so far this year. The witness who sent this to us, says a man was walking around while holding a severed leg.    It apparently detached from the pedestrian's body during the crash.    KCSO says that man was arrested on charges of willfully removing human remains and drug possession. The search is on for two women accused a stealing a wallet at Frugatti's Italian retaurant. Bakersfield police say it happened March 1-st... when these two women... stole another woman's wallet from her purse while she was dining at Frugatti's.    Shortly after, police say the victim's credit cards were used fraudulently.     If you have any information on this theft... you're urged to call BPD at 327-7111.Also, Police say this man used a stolen credit card to buy items at WinCo Foods in northwest Bakersfield.    The suspect is believed to be in his 30's or 40's.    He was last seen wearing a black jacket over a white shirt.    Again -- if you have a tip for investigators -- call 327-7111.The community of Arvin gathered over the weekend to celebrate the life and legacy of former mayor Olivia Trujillo.     A special ceremony was held at City Hall where her daughter says she will always be a part of Arvin.

The United States Department of Agriculture issued two natural disaster designations, and they affect several counties in Oregon. Wasco, Hood River, Clackamas, Multnomah, Clackamas, Gilliam, Jefferson, Marion, Sherman and Wheeler counties were listed in the designations. This means that farmers in the affected counties are eligible to apply for emergency assistance.  Extreme weather events in recent years have affected Oregon growers and spurred agency action. Farmers have faced unseasonably hot and drought-like conditions in the past. In 2021, a heat dome destroyed cherries as they baked on trees. Last year there was a glut of cherries across the West which caused prices to plummet. Ian Chandler is the chair of the Oregon Sweet Cherry Commission and a cherry farmer. He joins us with more on what this means for fruit producers and how this year’s season is going

ON JUNE 1, 1981, Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh boarded a Boeing 747 for a flight from Mumbai to New York City. Officially the trip was for medical treatment, and authorities were told he'd be heading back home to India afterward. But Rajneesh was not planning on returning. His movement, which had already become an international octopus with meditation centers in dozens of different countries around the world, had outgrown the Pune campus. He needed a new World Headquarters. And his new personal secretary, Ma Anand Sheela (formerly known as Sheela Patel Silverman), had found one for him. Sheela closed the deal for the property then known as the Big Muddy Ranch the following month, paying $5.75 million for it. It was 64,229 acres of Central Oregon rangeland with only the amenities one would expect a family ranch to have. And in late August, she chartered a Learjet to fly the guru in to see, for the first time, the dry landscape that was to be his new home. (Big Muddy Ranch, Wasco and Jefferson County; 1980s) (For text and pictures, see https://offbeatoregon.com/23-08b.rajneeshpuramPart2of5.html)

This is a very special bonus episode of The Adventures of Power Dog in Dogland that we decided to make during Summer break because we got to learn more about some superpower dogs right here on planet Earth this summer. Our deaf-blind cousin Lindy came to visit us and attended a summer camp created by Guide Dogs for the Blind.

Not only did we learn about Camp GDB, but we also learned about the very

The Oregon Sweet Cherry Commission recently sent a letter to Gov. Tina Kotek asking her to issue a State Disaster declaration for the cherry industry. The commission’s request for assistance follows a similar appeal made by a state lawmaker on behalf of growers in Hood River and Wasco Counties, as reported earlier by the Oregon Capital Chronicle. A wet, cold spring impacted cherry growers not only in Oregon but throughout the West, and led to a glut of cherries from California, Washington, Oregon and British Columbia reaching the market at the same time. According to the Oregon Sweet Cherry Commission, some farmers in Wasco and Hood River Counties decided to forego harvesting as much as 40% of their crop because of plummeting cherry prices. Ian Chandler is the Chair of the Oregon Sweet Cherry Commission and a cherry farmer in The Dalles. Mike Omeg is a cherry farmer and the director of operations at Orchard View in The Dalles. They share details about this year’s harvest and how a disaster declaration could help the industry cope with recent challenges.

Kenny LaPoint is the executive director of the Mid-Columbia Community Action Council, an organization that provides services to people experiencing homelessness in Wasco, Hood River and Sherman counties. MCCAC operates the only homeless shelter in Wasco County, a facility made up of 18 tiny homes in an industrial part of The Dalles near the Columbia River. It also conducts a federally mandated Point-in-Time count of people experiencing homelessness, and is in the process of acquiring a 54-room hotel to serve as transitional housing for families and clients with complex medical cases. This spring, MCCAC will break ground on a navigation center on the west side of The Dalles which will not only include shelter beds, but also office space for community agencies to provide wraparound services, including employment assistance. On Tuesday mornings, a mobile medical clinic operated by a non-profit medical center, One Community Health, visits the shelter to offer free medical services such as diabetes and cancer screenings. We hear from LaPoint and Kathryn Perkins, a client experiencing homelessness who has lived in a tiny shelter home for six months. Middy Tilghman, a family nurse practitioner at One Community Health and the lead medical provider at the mobile medical clinic, shares with us the impact it's having on improving health outcomes for unhoused patients.

Nancey Patten is the director of Child Care Partners, a state-funded Child Care Resource and Referral program serving Wasco and neighboring counties. The program helps child care providers meet state licensing requirements and recruits new providers through trainings and enrollment in early childhood education classes. This past spring, there was not a single vacancy for an infant, toddler or preschooler at any child care provider in Wasco County, according to Patten. While the shortage has eased slightly since then, many parents continue to struggle to find full-time care which costs roughly $800 for a toddler or infant in Wasco County per month. Meanwhile, child care providers in the county and throughout Oregon have struggled to find help for a job which may only pay minimum wage. Ana Rivera is the owner and operator of Rivera's Bilingual Preschool and Child Care in The Dalles. Rebecca Schwartz is the dean of academic pathways at Columbia Gorge Community College and the mother of 8-month-old twins. They join Nancey Patten to share their perspectives on child care access in the Dalles and new efforts to ease the crisis.
