Geogranhv, and _Agricultural and Resource Economics presented on October 1, 1982 Title: THE CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE OF MOUNTAIN REGIONS; IMPLICATIONS FOR THE QALAPOOYA DIVIDE. OREGON Abstract approved: Redacted for Privacy Thomas C. Hogg Altitudinal variations in upland regions of the earthcreate variable climatic zones and conditions. Plant andanimal communities must adapt to these conditions, andwhen theyreach their tolerance limits for environmental conditions at the upper levels of a zone, they cease to exist inthe environment. Humans also utilize mountains for a variety of reasons. The cultural traits which result from the adaptationof groups of people to mountainenvironments are unique from those of the surrounding lowlanders. Adaptation to upland areas is most often expressed in a transhumant or agro-pastoral lifestyle attuned to the climatic variations and demands of the mountain environment. This distribution of cultural traits suggests thatmountains are considered unique culture areas, apart from but sharing sometraits in common with neighboring lowland areas.

A Source Water Assessment for the groundwater portion of your water supply will be addressed in a separate report. 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.

  • Layng Creek and Prather Creek Intake Structures
    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The City of Cottage Grove has two water treatment plants. The older plant is located approximately 21 miles east of the city on Layng Creek and has a capacity of 1.6 MGD. The newer plant is adjacent to the Row River east of the City and has a capacity of 2.0 MGD. The two plants, together, produced an average flow of 1.5 MGD during 1999, but the City will need 2.5 MGD by the year 2022. The City consumption from the two plants during the maximum week was 2.4 MGD in 1999 and is expected to reach 4.9 MGD by the year 2022. The Layng Creek plant historically, was not able to consistently meet drinking water requirements of the Oregon Health Division for turbidity prior to replacing the filter media in January of 2000. In addition, the condition of the transmission pipeline from the dam sites to the City has deteriorated since it was installed in 1947. In an agreement signed in February of 2000 the City authorized LDC Design Group, Inc. to review the condition of the Layng Creek system and its ability to meet future needs through the planning year of 2022. There are two significant issues addressed in this report. The first was to determine the conditions of the facilities and the costs of repairs and/or replacements to maintain service for the City. The second was to consider alternative solutions and propose a plan for the City to meet its needs for water. The transmission pipeline was analyzed and the costs of maintaining and repairing it were estimated so that it could continue in service.

  • Chapter ** COUNTY-WIDE PUBLIC RECREATIONAL RESOURCES
    Chapter ** COUNTY-WIDE PUBLIC RECREATIONAL RESOURCES The vast majority of outdoor recreational lands within Lane County are national forests, managed by the Department of Agriculture-U.S. Forest Service (USFS). Other federal land management agencies in Lane County include the Department of the Interior-Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). State agencies, city park departments, special recreation districts, schools, utilities, and private providers, and Lane County, also manage recreational facilities. Familiarity with all public recreational resources in the county is important to place Lane County's role within the larger picture and assess Lane County Park needs. Lane County facilities are described in detail, in Chapter **. An overview of relationships and connections among recreation providers and other organizations that focus on outdoor resources is in Chapter **. Federal Recreational Lands U.S. FOREST SERVICE Federal lands comprise approximately 48%, or 1,422,659 acres1 of Lane County's land base, making the Forest Service (USFS) the largest land manager in Lane County. The Willamette National Forest spans the Cascade Mountain Range along Lane County's eastern boundary and beyond. Significant USFS recreation attractions within Lane County include portions of the Three Sisters, Waldo Lake, and Diamond Peak Wilderness areas. The Siuslaw National Forest on the Oregon coast crosses multiple counties as well. In Lane County it includes the Cummins Creek and Rock Creek Wilderness areas, and the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area (ODNRA), which extends for 40 miles along the coast and is the longest dunal area in North America. Cape Perpetua Scenic Area straddles the Lane/Linn county line to the north.
