Too, we hope that all agencies that are interested in retaining existing water access as well as providing additional facilities, whether they be municipal, county, or state will all join in a cooperative effort to carry out this plan in an orderly manner. It is probable that Land and Water Conservation Funds will be available on a 50- 50 matching basis. In order to acquire these funds, it will be necessary to apply through the Oregon State Highway Department. The Pudding River Basin, located in the center of the Willamette Valley, is within close proximity to the large population centers of the Willamette Valley. Numerous highways and county roads either cross or follow the major streams within the basin making them quite accessible by vehicle.

Never a test and refusal to ask USGS to come in and tell us the truth. How many dollars does it take to ignore the health of the future generations. I have spent years trying to bring science into the schools and the public but was blocked at every turn. People talk and know the true history and science will tell the rest. I am done asking you all to protect the water. So I will continue my search for the truth of what you have done to the next generation. Not one drop more should be taken from the Siletz River nor should one more gram of toxic waste should be added to the 11 million gallons a day pouring into the Ocean and River as their accidental spill history has proven.
