Excellent article.  I suggest Lane County stop paying dues to the Association of O&C Counties, a de facto lobbying group for the logging industry working to increase logging on our federal public forests and apply this money to keep our recycling/wastes disposal sites open.  We should also increase the timber harvest taxes to comparable amounts that Washington and California states charge. Whatever amount is needed after that, increase waste disposal fees and lower the days they are open to make it work.
 It would be great to have a majority of Lane County Commissioners who were working for Lane County citizens, not the clear cut logging industry for a change.  Bozevich says he works to "protect public health"- well, a ban on aerial herbicide poison spraying would be helpful, but it seems he and others would like to allow this practice to continue to maximize profits for logging at the expense of water quality, health of people, pets, farm animals, crops and wildlife.
