Construction begins at MTS

Submitted By: dmccalltillamook@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
The Manzanita Transfer Station, located at 34995 Necarney City Rd, has been home to an open burn site, a landfill, and has operated as a municipal solid waste (MSW) transfer station and recycling facility since 1981, under DEQ Solid Waste Disposal Site Permit #342. The quantities of materials collected at this site have increased over the years, reflecting the increasing population and economic activities in the area. Planning activities initiated in 2017 were completed in 2022.

As the owner and operator of this site, we are pleased to announce that construction is scheduled to being on a significant expansion project during the week of January 9, 2023. This investment will result in additional Z-walls, creating capacity to serve the community’s needs in the upcoming years. Z-walls enable the efficient transfer of small loads into large containers, which are then compacted and shipped off for final management.

Efforts have been made to restrict construction activities to times and areas separated from public access, to the extent possible. This means that most of users of the transfer station will not experience any impact during construction. All recycling activities will continue as usual. Scrap metal and yard debris acceptance will continue as usual. Trash acceptance will continue, though periodic restrictions may limit access to the so-called trailer lanes on the west side of the fee station.

Our ability to accept large quantities of rubble (clean fill, sand, concrete, bricks, etc.) may be impacted during construction. Please contact staff before bringing any quantities of rubble greater than ¼ cubic yard to ensure we have the ability to accept your material.

Lastly, we are all excited about the improvements this construction project will bring, but it is important that the contractors are able to work without disturbances or intrusions. We request that everyone respect that, stay out of the designated construction area, and be aware of equipment coming and going on site.

If you have any questions about this project, please feel free to contact my office for more information.

Thank you,

David McCall
Solid Waste Program Manager

Two Truths and a Lie: Creating Lasting Change for Your Life A 1 hour workshop created for women with Dr. Alicia Grace
When: Saturday, January 7, 10a-11a 
Where: North County Recreation District (NCRD): Fireside Room Cost: $23 (for 2023) Check, cash, Venmo Registration at the door
Want to make a few changes in the New Year and learn how to make them stick this time? In this workshop created for busy women, you’ll learn what 2 truths actually help and at least one ‘lie’ you’ve been told that undermines your effort in making habit changes.
We will experiment with easy (and even fun) tools developed in the Stanford Behavior Design Lab. These tools create an easy roadmap to make your new habits stick.
This workshop is: Part spa for the stressed and striving spirit. Part clarity for the curious or overwhelmed mind. And part ease for the journey ahead…
Dr. Alicia Grace is a counselor in private practice guiding women through significant transitions and the integration of mind, body, and spirit. 
She founded Nourish with Grace; a non-diet weight loss program and community for women who outsmart overeating with neuroscience, self-compassion, and self-love

Ready to Get Out of Your Own Way?

Do you get in your own way?

Maybe you’re a perfectionist, feeling like your work is never good enough, afraid to show it to others unless it’s absolutely perfect.

Maybe you’re really good at giving to others, and really terrible at asking for your needs to be met. You have trouble delegating but wish others would do more.

Maybe you’re feeling anxious about certain tasks, and so you procrastinate and avoid them, and maybe you’re not even sure why you’re feeling anxious.

Our childhood experiences leave wounds that affect how we interact with the world. And when we heal those wounds, we see the world differently.

You don’t have to struggle anymore. It gets to be easier.

I’m offering a group taster hypnotherapy session at the Tillamook SBDC on January 25, 2023, at 4:00 pm. It costs just $20 to take part. To register, email me at meredith@ideation.guide.

And if you’d like to just jump in and start working with me individually, I have 3 spots open. 1 conscious strategy session + 1 hypnotherapy session = $414. Email me at meredith@ideation.guide to grab your spot!

LNWC Annual Meeting and Speaker Series

Submitted By: info@nehalemwatershed.org – Click to email about this post
LNWC Annual Meeting and Speaker Series: The Role of Red Alder in the Oregon Coast Range w/ Andy Bluhm

On January 12th, 2023 the Lower Nehalem Watershed Council will be hosting both their Annual Meeting and a presentation w/ Andy Bluhm, OSU’s Associate Program Director of the Hardwood Silviculture Cooperative, who will share new insight into a common tree in the Nehalem Watershed, the red alder.

The LNWC’s Annual Meeting will start at 5 pm. The Annual Meeting consists of board elections, selection of board officers, and the Annual Report. All members are welcome to attend to vote in board elections. The Annual Report will be a summary of council activities in 2022 including progress reports on restoration designs, planting projects, and regional collaborations. It’s been a busy year for the council so we hope you’ll come early to learn about what we’ve been up to.

Andy Bluhm’s presentation on red alder will begin at 7 pm. This presentation will introduce the characteristics of red alder and summarize the ecological role that red alder plays in the Oregon Coast Range. We’ll look at how red alder fits into the big picture of PNW ecosystems then examine the red alder’s effect on diversity, site productivity, community resiliency, and ecosystem function. Specific emphasis will be placed on the function red alder has in riparian systems and it’s influence on riparian communities.

In addition to a B.S. in Forestry from the University of Minnesota and an M.S. in Forest Ecology/Silviculture from the University of Georgia, Andy has spent the last 20 years at OSU as the Associate Program Director of the Hardwood Silviculture Cooperative- focusing on the biology and management of red alder. Other research projects at OSU have included directing the red alder management program for the OSU College Forests, managing a long-term study on alternative silvicultural practices, installing and measuring a Swiss Needle Cast research plot network, and coordinating the PNW Permanent Sample Plot network. His main duties include everything from education and outreach, data collection to growth and yield modeling and everything in between. In his free time, he enjoys exploring PNW old-growth forests in pursuit of big trees.

Andy is an expert on this foundational tree in our watershed and will have a wealth of information to share with us. Hopefully, everyone will walk away from this talk with a new appreciation for Red Alders and the roles they play in the Nehalem.

Both the Annual Meeting and the presentation will be hosted on Zoom and are free to the public. The zoom link is us02web.zoom.us/j/83650617243 or on the Faceboook event at www.facebook.com/lnwc1.

You can also contact the watershed council at info@nehalemwatershed.org. A recording of this presentation will also be posted on the LNWC’s YouTube channel with our other recorded presentations. Just search for “Lower Nehalem Watershed Council” on YouTube.

Event Information: This event is FREE and open to the public. Find more information on our speaker series and the links for access on our Facebook page (www.facebook.com/lnwc1).

New Book Club – The Ponderous Tome

Submitted By: tolovanaartscolony@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Ponderous Tome Book Club
(Coming in January, 2023)

Announcing a non-fiction book club for thoughtful citizens interested in the Climate Crisis, preserving constitutional democracy, and – in general – building a better society through thoughtful, pragmatic reform.

The Ponderous Tome Book Club will meet monthly, ten times a year – omitting December and once during the high season – to discuss books on a variety of topics, including:

History and Biography
The Climate Crisis and Species Extinction
Economics
Domestic and Global Politics
Economics
Education, Health, and the Future of Food
War and Peace

Stimulating discussion is expected, but civility will be the order of the day, with Benjamin Franklin’s precepts for the conduct of meetings as our inspiration.

We hope to attract participants from a broad range of rational perspectives – but we will draw the line at denialism and defeatism. We seek to expand our minds and our sense of the possible – not our lists of grievances and causes for despair. (A daily dose of news and social media furnish quite enough of the latter.)

Our first book will be The Revolutionary: Samuel Adams, published this October by Pulitizer Prize-winning biographer Stacy Schiff. (At 327 pages, not too ponderous.)

‘Rick Gray, organizer of the Ponderous Tome Book Club, is a native Virginian and, since 2018, a full-time resident of Cannon Beach. In a varied career, he has been – in order – a practicing attorney, Secretary of the Commonwealth of Virginia, a high school history teacher and administrator, a professional stage actor, an op-ed columnist, and a full-time caregiver for his mother. A lifelong student of history and frequent political activist, he sought the District 32 seat in Oregon’s House of Representatives in 2022.
