Earlier this year, DEQ agreed to admin- ister an independent audit of environment- impacting practices at ESCO Corporation’s steel foundry, something Northwest Port- land activists have been seeking for years.

Only one candidate responded to a request for proposal (RFP) to evaluate ESCO manufacturing procedures and rec- ommend measures to reduce harmful emis- sions. Hey, you!! Your shirt’s untucked! You’re out of the game! It should have been an easy decision.
