The assessment was prepared under the requirements and guidance of the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act and the US Environmental Protection Agency, as well as a detailed Source Water Assessment Plan developed by a statewide citizen's advisory committee here in Oregon over the past two years. The Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) and the Oregon Health Division (OHD) are conducting the assessments for all public water systems in Oregon. The purpose is to provide information so that the public water system staff/operator, consumers, and community citizens can begin developing strategies to protect your source of drinking water. There are nine drinking water intakes for public water systems located on the North and South Santiam Rivers upstream of the Jefferson intake. Activities and impacts in the upstream protection areas have the potential to impact your drinking water. The upstream public water systems include Stayton Water Supply, Salem Public Works, Lyons Mehama Water District, Mill City Water Department, City of Gates, and Detroit Water System on the North Santiam River and the Cities of Lebanon, Albany and Sweet Home on the South Santiam River.

I. Facts Plaintiff claims that he was injured on January 21, 1999 while he was installing plumbing in a structure in Olathe, Kansas. Plaintiff claims that his injury occurred when, as he was inspecting his work, one of the braces plaintiff had installed “shot out” from between the joists of the structure and flew directly into plaintiff’s eye, which caused loss of the eye. Plaintiff claims that the engineered I-beam joists (“the product”) that plaintiff was installing pipe under were harder, more elastic, and more difficult to penetrate than sawn lumber joists, preventing the copper pipe plaintiff had installed from wedging itself between the joists. Plaintiff thus claims that the product is defective and that both the manufacturer and the distributor of the product failed to warn him of the alleged defect. Plaintiff resided in Kansas and was working for a Case 2:02-cv-02143-CM Document 145 Filed 03/08/06 Page 2 of 12 Kansas employer at the time of the injury which gave rise to his claims.

  • How Businesses Are Really Born
    Birds and Bees: How Businesses Are Really Born Business is blooming—Oregon’s outdoor retail industry leads the world. By Naomi Inman October, 2002 It was the gloomiest March, economically, in two decades in Oregon, and in the Portland area especially. Oregon led the nation in unemployment, and was last in the nation in job creation. Portland lost Willamette Industries, its only fortune 500 company...and Delta Airlines International Service...and would soon lose Meier and Frank corporate headquarters, and finally Consolidated Freightways. Against this gloomy cloud overshadowing the usual gloomy weather, came a very successful venture capitalist, Ralph Shaw, to deliver a speech to the Commercial Association of Realtors. His March ‘02 speech was aptly subtitled, “Does anyone here know how to play this game?” The denouncement of Portland and Oregon’s economic situation had all the subtlety of a furnace blast. Shaw excoriated Portland for its past economic smugness, for its fanciful dreaming of our “quality of life” advantages, for its lack of infrastructure, its educational system, its lack of corporate headquarters and management drain, for its failure to prepare for the high-tech recession, its romantic thinking that bio-tech will save the day...for its lack of corporate clusters. And after each denouncement on Portland’s non-competitive, international economic positions, Shaw fired this refrain: “Does anyone here know how to play this game?” The game of international competition. Well, Mr. Shaw, somebody here does know how to play this game—to develop the critical mass of an economic cluster. There’s one industry where Oregon leads the world; where growth, despite March 2000 and 9/11, is going gangbusters and steadily growing by 15 to 25 percent.

During the year, the Fund generated a record investment return of $1.254 billion and distributed $265 million to the Available University Fund (“AUF”) for the benefit of The University of Texas System and The Texas A&M University System. This investment performance combined with a benign inflation environment enabled Donald L. Evans the Fund to exceed its primary investment objective of preserving the purchasing power of both the Fund’s investment assets and income distributions to the AUF. In the future, The University of Texas Investment Management Company (“UTIMCO”) will continue to execute its strategy of diversifying the Fund’s assets into equity securities with a potential for significant dividend growth as well as capital appreciation.
