Carver kids BLUE RIVER: Events like the Chainsaw Art Festival involve competitions like the daily quick carves or main event sculptures. Yet behind the scenes the interactions between the people operating those snarling saws are pretty open hearted. That’s what Randy Gauthier of Moberly Lake, British Columbia, found out last year when a string of bad luck left all his gear in the wrong country. After other hassles with ticket agents and border officials he arrived at the show with little pocket money and no tools. Not for long, however. Other c...

EWEB logo Wildish Construction will close the Leaburg Dam to all vehicle and pedestrian access starting on Monday, August 25th. The work is expected to take about three days, but could last until Thursday and Friday if unforeseen issues come up. People who regularly walk or drive across the dam should be prepared for a full week of closures – on weekdays from 8 a.m. to noon and from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. If Wildish finishes removal of the bulkhead earlier, the Eugene Water & Electric Board will notify nearby residents. EWEB had expected some...
Yesterday, lightning sparked six fires on the McKenzie River Ranger District. Fortunately, firefighters were able to respond rapidly to these starts and kept them all under an acre. All the fires were located in the north end of the Three Sisters Wilderness and required the work of rappellers, smoke jumpers and district personnel to keep the fire sizes to a minimum. “We are also keeping a look out for ‘sleepers,’” said Randy Harbick, Fire Management Officer for the McKenzie River Ranger District. “Yesterday, we found two fires that were left...

Crane on Leaburg Dam LEABURG: The Eugene Water & Electric Board’s directors last week approved additional funds for repairs to the Leaburg Dam. The action will allow work to move forward at a cost that could exceed 25% of the original contract price of $399,000 awarded to the Wildish Construction Company. In a memo to EWEB’s directors, the utility’s engineering manager, Mel Damewood, reported that to replace the failed hydraulic motor for Roll Gate 2, EWEB had authorized installing a bulkhead upstream of the dam.

That fire is between 6 and 10 acres; retardant drops occurred throughout the afternoon and water-carrying helicopters are en...
Subdivision DEERHORN: A proposal to create a 27-home subdivision is currently under review by the Lane County Planning Division.
