The Palouse CEDS examines the Palouse Economic Development District (PEDD), a region comprised of four southeastern Washington State counties; Asotin, Columbia, Garfield and Whitman. Additionally, the PEDD has some common economic issues with the neighboring Clearwater Economic Development District located in north central Idaho. The intent of the CEDS is to identify regional issues and potential solutions. This is an on-going, long term process that discusses the regional economic development The CEDS document accomplishes the following: . Provides data and information on the District; . Discusses external and internal trends and forces; . Establishes the District’s vision and goals; . Outlines programs and projects for implementation; . Lists prior accomplishments; . Sets criteria for evaluating the process.

Box 365 Lapwai, ID 83540 Julie Simpson, Air Quality Program Coordinator phone 208.621.3818 fax 208.843.7411 [email protected] Funding Requested: $418,789 Total Project Cost: $418,789 Project Period: May 1, 2015 - April 30, 2018 DUNS number: 078208303 Lewiston-Clarkston Valley Formaldehyde Study Page 2 of 10 Basis and Rationale: Submitted to the Community-Scale Monitoring category, the proposed Lewiston- Clarkston (LC) Valley Formaldehyde (HCHO) Study will identify sources of elevated carbonyls found in the year long community monitoring assessment the Nez Perce Tribe (NPT) conducted in 2006/2007 in the Lewiston-Clarkston Valley (LC Valley) and on the Nez Perce Reservation in North Central Idaho. (http://www.nezperce.org/Official/Air%20Quality/Airtoxics/airtoxics.htm). Data analysis results and recommendations competed by Sonoma Technology, Inc. for the 2006/2007 study clearly identified the need for additional research (McCarthy et al, 2009): Concentrations of formaldehyde [HCHO] and acetaldehyde were much higher than expected for an area of Lewiston’s size. Because HCHO is the largest contributor to cancer risk among the pollutants measured and acetaldehyde is a significant contributor, this result is significant. Concentrations of HCHO and acetaldehyde were highest in the summer months but did not appear to be related to special events like large wildfires. Secondary production of HCHO and acetaldehyde are most likely to be responsible for the seasonal pattern but it is unclear why concentrations are higher in the Lewiston area than at other sites in the Inland Northwest.

    Prepared in Cooperation with the Water Resources Program of the Yakama Nation Geologic Map of the Simcoe Mountains Volcanic Field, Main Central Segment, Yakama Nation, Washington By Wes Hildreth and Judy Fierstein Pamphlet to accompany Scientific Investigations Map 3315 Photograph showing Mount Adams andesitic stratovolcano and Signal Peak mafic shield volcano viewed westward from near Mill Creek Guard Station. Low-relief rocky meadows and modest forested ridges marked by scattered cinder cones and shields are common landforms in Simcoe Mountains volcanic field. Mount Adams (elevation: 12,276 ft; 3,742 m) is centered 50 km west and 2.8 km higher than foreground meadow (elevation: 2,950 ft.; 900 m); its eruptions began ~520 ka, its upper cone was built in late Pleistocene, and several eruptions have taken place in the Holocene. Signal Peak (elevation: 5,100 ft; 1,555 m), 20 km west of camera, is one of largest and highest eruptive centers in Simcoe Mountains volcanic field; short-lived shield, built around 3.7 Ma, is seven times older than Mount Adams. 2015 U.S. Department of the Interior U.S. Geological Survey Contents Introductory Overview for Non-Geologists ...............................................................................................1 Introduction.....................................................................................................................................................2 Physiography, Environment, Boundary Surveys, and Access ......................................................6 Previous Geologic

In the east, where precipitation is greater, deep loess soils have been extensively cultivated for wheat. of Nevada, Utah, California, and Idaho. In Idaho, sagebrush grassland, saltbush–greasewood, mountain brush, and woodland occur; forests are absent unlike in the cooler, wetter, more rugged Ecoregion 19. Grazing is widespread. Cropland is less common than in Ecoregions 12 and 80. Ecoregions of Idaho The unforested hills and plateaus of the Dissected Loess Uplands ecoregion are cut by the canyons of Ecoregion 10l and are disjunct. 10f Pure grasslands dominate lower elevations. Mountain brush grows on higher, moister sites. Grazing and farming have eliminated The arid Shadscale-Dominated Saline Basins ecoregion is nearly flat, internally-drained, and has light-colored alkaline soils that are Ecoregions denote areas of general similarity in ecosystems and in the type, quality, and America into 15 ecological regions.

Nevertheless, Ecoregion 10f is not as suited to farming as Ecoregions 10h and 10j because it has thinner soils.
