Respectfully submitted, Jennifer Cooper Oregon State Marine Board April 14, 2021 Page 2 of 2 Oregon State Marine Board June 2021 Agency Scorecard Financial Overview Strengths: The agency will enter the 21-23 biennium with necessary ending balances, generally stable revenue and with staff managing expenses to keep the agency on solid financial footing. Concerns: Inflation will impact everything from boat builds, facility building and maintenance and labor costs across our contracted services. Business Overview Strengths: The state is targeting a return to the office in September. Agency leadership has started working with staff on plans to return. While we likely will not return to a pre-Covid in office structure, the agency will shift back to significantly more in office work, mixed with telework, with a focus on customer service and internal collaboration. Concerns: Our current office space is not configured well for the future work structure we anticipate. In addition, it exceeds the square footage we need to operate in the new work environment. Over time, as the State reconfigures its workforce, the agency may need to move to different office space. While this would likely have many benefits, the upfront cost to move would be substantial. There are multiple statewide workgroups looking at this issue and that work will likely continue over several years. Recreational Opportunities Strengths: Ocean salmon seasons appear to be good this year in much of the state. That should provide good opportunity for recreational fisherman and guides. Port of Alsea finished most of their facility upgrade. Boaters were anxious to get back on the Alsea and have indicated the new facility is great for fisherman, paddlers, and crabbers. Staff is continuing to work with the Port to ensure access for disabled boaters is improved as part of the final steps. Concerns: The hot dry spring has left many reservoirs across the state well below full pool. Many central, southern, and southeast reservoirs will not achieve full pool this year and a Page 1 substantial amount may not be boatable this season. Agency staff are working with facility providers to help identify issues, closures, and places where boaters can go. Stakeholder Engagement Strengths: Waterfront Organizations of Oregon (WOO) has led an effort to find legislative solutions for abandoned and derelict vessels. Their effort may lead to the agency receiving $1 million of one-time funding to address the issue. Calm Water Coalition has actively worked on implementing new rules in the Lower Willamette. In addition to working with OSMB, they have fostered a strong partnership with Multnomah County Marine Patrol, so they have a direct line of communication with them on enforcement issues. Jefferson County once again proved to be excellent hosts for the Marine Law Academy held in April and May. Food, lodging, fuel, space to meet, an aquatic center and a lake are just a few of things needed to host academy. The Jefferson County Sheriff’s office is to be commended for the community being ready to have Academy in their county. Concerns: Boating activity continues to rise across the northwest, which leads to on water conflict, facility demands that exceed our funding and more boating safety incidents. While many east coast states would consider our waterways underutilized compared to their congested waters, many Oregonian’s are not accustomed to busy ramps and waterways. Page 2 June 14, 2021 Item A: Director’s Agency Report Administration 01. Director Warren attended several days of the Marine Law enforcement Academy. The training was well organized, students were engaged in the learning and the instructors were doing an outstanding job of sharing their knowledge. 02. The 2021 Legislative Session ends no later than June 27, 2021. Director Warren will continue to update the Board on our budget bill and other legislative issues related to the agency as the Session concludes. Boating Facilities Program 01. Staff is coordinating with FEMA on fire related hazard signage and obstruction reporting tool implementation. OSMB will be able to recover up to 75 percent of those costs. 02. Facilities Section staff met with Linn County Parks Director Brian Carroll, Parks Commission member Gerritt Schaffer and other County park staff to evaluate an ADA accessible rowboat and site improvements for Clear Lake Resort. Staff whole-heartedly appreciate Gerritt letting us ask numerous questions about entering and exiting the boat, height, anchoring, ride, desired modifications etc. This was invaluable for engineering staff to engage and discuss conceptual design ideas. Based on these discussions the County is planning to have some modification made and pursue a second boat that anyone could row the boat. The County is also exploring short-term site modifications to improve accessibility while pursuing long-term improvements. The property is owned by U.S. Forest Service but managed by Linn County and will require some additional steps for access improvements. Staff encouraged the County to apply for Small Grants or Waterway Access Grants depending upon the budget.

  • Ross Island Bridge Rehabilitation Project Frequently Asked Questions
    Ross Island Bridge Rehabilitation Project Frequently Asked Questions What does the project involve? Starting in October 2014, contractors will remove about 250 deteriorating rivets and upgrade the steels members. This first phase will take six to eight weeks to complete. In the spring of 2015, crews will begin preparations to paint the bridge. This involves stripping old paint down to the bare steel, treating the bare steel for rust and then applying the new paint. Why paint the Ross Island Bridge? The paint on the U.S. 26 Willamette River Bridge (Ross Island Bridge) has deteriorated and no longer provides the necessary corrosion protection and aesthetic appearance. The bridge was last painted in 1967. This work will preserve its structural integrity and help extend its useful life. Why do the rivets need to be removed? Many of the rivets haven’t been replaced since the bridge opened in 1926 and are being removed because of rust and corrosion. Removing and replacing the rivets will help strengthen the bridge, preserve its structural stability and extend its service life. What’s the schedule? Rivet removal will take place in the fall of 2014 and will require six to eight weeks to complete. The painting will take place in the dry season, spring to fall, in 2015, 2016 and 2017. The project is scheduled for completion in late 2017, although the schedule is subject to change due to weather and site conditions. What are the work hours? The rivet work will occur during the day between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m.

  • Portland Harbor Superfund Update on EPA's Process
    July 2018 Contact: Annie Von Burg at [email protected] or 503-823-7859 Portland Harbor Superfund The Portland Harbor Superfund site, which lies within a 10-mile stretch of the lower Willamette River, received EPA’s final cleanup plan in early 2017. The cleanup plan is designed to reduce risks to human health and the environment using cleanup actions such as dredging, capping, enhanced natural recovery, and monitored natural recovery. The final cleanup plan calls for removal of about 3 million cubic yards of contaminated sediments and active remediation of 23,305 lineal feet of river bank. EPA estimates that the cleanup will cost approximately $1.05 billion and take about 30 years to complete. Early this year, EPA leaders placed Portland Harbor on a list of priority sites targeted for immediate and intense action. Since that announcement, top EPA officials have visited the Portland Harbor site and have remained closely involved in the process. Update on EPA’s process Since the release of the final cleanup plan, EPA has been working on three main areas to make progress towards cleanup; public involvement, site-wide baseline sampling and remedy design. Public involvement- EPA initiates quarterly Public Forum As part of EPA’s work to provide information to the public, EPA hosted the first quarterly Portland Harbor Public Forum on June 13 at the Immigrant Refugee and Community Organization Community Center. The purpose of the Public Forum is for members of the public to meet with EPA and the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ) on a quarterly basis to understand and review information and receive status updates from the Portland Harbor Superfund Site.
