  • Investors seek to build brewery at marina

    Betsy Nelson, Wah. Co. Eagle|Feb 28, 2013

    Is a local microbrewery on the horizon? At Monday’s Port District #1 meeting, a group of 10 local investors represented by Cathlamet businessman Richard Erickson presented a proposal to port commissioners to site a microbrewery on port-owned property at Elochoman Marina. The proposal asks the port to build and lease a 1,000-1,200 square foot building to the group for a five-year period. The Drop Anchor Brewery would sell kegs to local restaurants and growlers and souvenirs to tasting room visitors. Its tasting room would not offer full meals f...

  • PUD's 'loss theory' doesn't hold water

    Feb 28, 2013

    To The Eagle: In last week’s Eagle, PUD Commissioner Bob Jungers maligned Cathlamet’s water system. He said: “One of the reasons they are in financial difficulty with their system is because their infrastructure has decayed to the point that their water losses are so high that they are manufacturing a lot of water that they’re not selling.” Respectfully, Mr. Jungers lives in a glass house. In Cathlamet’s most recent Annual Performance Report submitted to the Dept. of Health, our 3-year loss rate (2009-11) was 17.4 percent. In the PUD’s Annua...

  • PUD: No bonus; umbrage taken over water pact

    Betsy Nelson, Wah. Co. Eagle|Feb 21, 2013

    Wahkiakum PUD Manager Dave Tramblie will not receive a bonus in appreciation for his stewardship of the PUD’s $2.3 million substation construction project that was completed last month. The project was originally projected to cost $3 million but stayed more than $500,000 under budget. Tramblie told PUD commissioners meeting Tuesday that a few minor vouchers remained to be paid in February, but that he did not think the cost would increase much beyond the $2,278,309 already paid for the work. At the utility directors’ February 5 meeting, Com...

  • Council offers park site to food bank

    Rick Nelson, Wah. Co. Eagle|Feb 21, 2013

    The Cathlamet Town Council on Tuesday voted to offer the Helping Hand Food Bank a site in Erickson Park to locate a new building for the food bank.

  • Facts versus opinion and generalities

    Feb 14, 2013

    To The Eagle: Recently there has been quite a bit of discussion in the area of gun control and assorted other political footballs. One thing I have been observing is that those who are opposed to things like the Bill of Rights and Constitution are fond of using statements about what might happen rather than sticking to facts, statistics and matters of record. I am not going to get into any of that debate here. I will say I support the Bill of Rights and Constitution and do my best to live up to those standards. So what is my point? Glad you...
