County voices objection to city-only vote on fluoridation [Daily Triplicate]
November measure will be decided by only city residentsAn initiative to take fluoride out of Crescent City’s water system is on the November ballot — but the Del Norte County Board of Supervisors has lodged a formal objection to the vote.In a letter to City Manager Rod Butler, Supervisor Martha McClure said the board is concerned the majority of users affected by the initiative are not able to vote on it.Only residents within the actual city limits can vote on the measure because the water system is city owned and operated. McClure said this leaves county customers without a voice.

Letters to the Editor Sept. 1, 2010 [Daily Triplicate]
Hurdygurdy Cr. not last example of surrounded private landRegarding the Hurdygurdy Creek article (“Watershed plan spurs heated debate,” Aug. 25), I noticed that not all of the facts were presented. The Smith River Alliance keeps beating the drum about the watershed being one of the last examples of private ownership surrounded by public land, often referred to as “in-holdings,” within the Smith River National Recreation Area.There are other private in-holdings within this area, such as Big Flat. The concept of in-holdings is not isolated to this specific area in this national forest. It is a concept as old as the national forest system itself. Look at a map of the Klamath, Shasta-Trinity, Modoc or any other National Forest and you will see in-holdings. On some national forests they resemble a checkerboard of private and public owned land. Within these mixed ownership areas there does not appear to be a call to “protect the watershed.”

A key is finding a dominant hitter who can smash the ball and get needed kills after Del Norte lost its three top hitters, including kill specialist and Big 5 Conference MVP Kristen DeBacker.

KRECR students learn to give back [Daily Triplicate]
High school students from the Klamath River Early College of the Redwoods (KRECR) have been working this past school year in collaboration with the Yurok Housing Authority and the Yurok Tribe to complete construction projects for local elders. The first project, a wheelchair ramp, was built for Mr. William Sanderson, Klamath. Eleven KRECR students devoted approximately 12 hours each, rain or shine, to construct the ramp under the direction of their wood shop teacher, Mr. Lewis Nova, and building supervisor, Mr. Tim Pierce. The project is supported by a grant from the Siletz Tribal Charitable Contribution Fund, Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians, Ore.A second project — a storage shed — is currently under construction for another Klamath elder, Arlene Charles.
