Bears on the block

Ridge sightings show that region remains wild

BY CAROL LADWIGStaff Reporter

Eighteen times in August,Snoqualmie Police offi-cers were dispatched toSnoqualmie Ridge homes to handle a bear sighting.

“That’s not all of them either,” said Becky Munson,administrator withthe Snoqualmie PoliceDepartment. “Some peoplecalled the next day.”

Munson has been record-ing the locations and timesof day that people have been reporting wildlife sightingsto the police, and althoughshe can’t say her list is defin-itive, she is certain about the type of sightings.

“It’s all bears,” she said,and the numbers seem tobe rising.

Changing times for food pantryFirst benefit could help meet

demand at tiny, but growing, charityBY SETH TRUSCOTT

The man walked in, quietly handed the $100 bill to a volunteer, then left with as little notice.

The private donation is a ritual that happens a few times a year. It’s only quietly remarked, but means a lot to the two-dozen volunteers on the receiving end at the Fall City Food Pantry.

“He didn’t want a receipt, he didn’t want anyone to know what his name was,” said longtime volunteer Janet Ewing. “We just wanted to give that $100.”

The unknown donator is far from alone. Since opening in 2007, the grassroots pan-try has relied on private donations to keep doors open and food flowing.

Demand has grown and supplies occa-sionally get sparse, but the Food Pantry’s needs are always, somehow, met.

Riverview students return

to school

Top: Carnation Elementary students “freeze” after they’ve been tagged in PE class, while orange-mitted taggers try to catch the others. Far left: Amid the lunchtime bustle, a boy pauses to read the note from his mother, packed in with his lunch for the first day of school. Left: Students run away from taggers in PE class.

Carnation Elementary students jumped right into lessons Tuesday Sept. 6, the first day of class in Riverview School District.

“They’re usually pretty quiet on the first day,” said Principal Doug Poage, on a tour of the classrooms.

In Doug Higgins’ music room, students tapped their xylophones and practiced their “eagle arms.” Next door, Allison Hoover wrote rules for PE on her whiteboard, respect, politeness and gentleness, even in tag.

“You left the T off of ‘soft tag,’” a quick boy named Anthony told her.

Hoover then handed out puffy mitts for “freeze tag,” and students hopped up and started running. Between screams and laughs, students helped “unfreeze” their classmates with a wave or handshake. School is back in session.

SNOQUALMIE

It was my idea to go through the trash. All Jeff Borgida needed was a little prompting.

Once I opened the blue bin, Borgida, Eastside general manager for Allied Waste, started pointing out the little mistakes—bagged paper, lids on bot-tles—and showing how I could recycle more stuff, better.

Until a few weeks ago, I had rarely considered what happens to garbage, post-Dumpster. Small town news is so often consumed with the future—growth, education, votes, movers and shakers—that there’s not always time for the grimy stuff like trash.

But the basics are important, too. For our health, and to understand our own place in the world, we should all know where our water comes from and goes, where our trash winds up, and how our streets are man-aged. As citizens, not just residents, we take these things for granted at our peril.

Watching Borgida, I realized that my own habits needed changing. By sim-ply rinsing out a milk carton, or pulling a plastic bottle out of the trash can and putting it with the office wastepaper, I could help with diversion—recycling something, rather than wasting it (isn’t that why it’s called waste?).

Each effort helps save room in that

big county landfill that’s going to fill up sometime after 2020. It saves resources, and I’ll bet it also saves us money and time in the long run.

It’s also very easy. The contents of nearly every Valley recycling bin’ wind up at Allied’s high-tech Materials Recovery Facility in Seattle, there con-verted into recyclable goods for sale, offsetting the cost of collection. If you don’t know whether to recycle some-thing, just throw it in. Technology has reached a point that if something can’t be recycled, the system removes it.

Another lesson: Don’t bag your recyclables, leave them loose. The computerized cameras and blowers that sort the contents need it to flow freely to get all the cans and paper and bottles to their final destination.

I was amazed to learn the story of local garbage. Accustomed to old forms of garbage disposal—self-haul-ing to the dump, or simply letting the two-man garbage teams haul it

away—I hadn’t realize how the situa-tion had changed. In the Valley, there are no longer garbage men—it’s one person, in a truck, assisted by a robot arm and sophisticated cameras and motion sensors, piloting a natural-gas-powered truck around tight cor-ners more nimbly than I could have believed if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes.

The secret life of garbage was, at least for me, eye opening. And we’ve only told half the story of local trash. Some pieces of the puzzle that didn’t turn up last week included some num-bers: How much trash or recycling local communities generate, and how those numbers compare with other cities. Do we in the Valley have a bet-ter ecological footprint than most? I’m optimistic that we do.

What’s next? Perhaps, a look at the secret life of water, streets or sewers. If you’re interested, let’s keep digging down into the supposedly mundane.

Th is week in Valley history

of theOUT


with a softball game wrap-ping up on the field and a siz-able crowd gathering, seated on chairs or blankets on the front lawn. But the moment was a solemn one: The 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

“I’m never going to forget, never,” said North Bend resi-dent Lynn Kehoe, who waved a small American flag from her camp chair. “My yard is even decorated.”

Like so many around her, Kehoe remembers exactly

what she was doing when the hijacked airliners struck the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, or were brought down in Shanksville, Pa. Kehoe has lived her life dif-ferently in the decade since.

“I’ve been a lot more care-ful, but I also recognize com-munity a lot more,” she said.

That sense of community was made clear by dignitaries who spoke at Sept. 11 com-memorations held Sunday in Snoqualmie and North Bend.

In downtown Snoqualmie, veterans including the Snoqualmie Valley Veterans

Honor Guard and American Legion, police, firefighters, city officials, clergy and local Boy Scouts met to lower the old flag at Railroad Park early Sunday, then raise a new one. Snoqualmie resident Dave Battey rang 10 bell tolls, one for each year that has passed since the attacks.

In North Bend, Mayor Ken Hearing, Pastor John Jenks, State Rep. Jay Rodne and County Councilwoman Kathy Lambert joined the choir for an evening ceremo-ny. Trumpeter John Lang played “Taps” at both events.

“This is what community is all about—being able to be together to share and support one another,” said Lambert, who com-pared Sept. 11, 2001, to the Challenger Shuttle disaster and President Kennedy’s assassination.

“Nine-eleven made us a family,” she said.

“I’ll never forget what happened on 9/11,” Hearing said softly, con-cluding his remarks. The mayor had been on a fish-ing trip, and recalled an overwhelming desire to be with his family and pray for the innocent lives taken for incomprehensible reasons.

“I have to believe that out of the ashes of 9/11, we are...being a witness to free-dom around the world,” Rodne said.

Saluting fallen emergen-cy responders, EFR Deputy Chief Bud Backer said the memory “is something that gets to us—the respect and dedication those people showed is something that’s imprinted on all of us.”

“I get checks from people, I don’t have a clue who they are,” Ewing said.

Like Ewing, Food Pantry founder Richard Terbrueggen is sometimes amazed by the way the Lower Valley food bank has been supported. From its start as an outreach of Fall City Methodist Church, the pantry has grown to help and be supported by the entire Valley.

The Methodists started the food bank, but soon realized the church couldn’t do it on their own.

“We said, we need to make this a community effort,” Terbrueggen said. “The commu-nity has been very responsive.”

This fall, the pantry takes its first steps toward wider support with a first-ever benefit. The First Annual Fundraiser, a Saturday, Oct. 8, night of wine, appetiz-ers, art showing and silent bidding at Fall City Roadhouse, will help put the food bank on solid financial ground during rising demand.

Every bit helpsOn a typical distribution day, every first and

third Wednesday of the month, clients file into the fellowship room at Fall City Methodist Church. They are given menus based on their family size, written in English and Spanish, and can choose among options of food and household goods. Besides an address, no questions are asked of participants. Religion is not inserted, either.

“We don’t question,” Ewing said. “They need help. You know, you can tell.”

Some clients are back in two weeks, some will be gone for a while, then come back.

Last Wednesday, Paul, a Fall City resident, filled up a paper bag with groceries and cereal, enough to supplement his family for about a week. At the last table, he picked up three Special K bars for his three children, then one for himself.

“That way, the kids can’t fight,” he said. “There’s one for dad.”

This was his second visit to the food pantry. Off work for more than a year thanks to a knee injury, the former cabinet-maker calls the food pantry “a fantastic situation.”

Pondering an uneasy future, Paul says coming here was an easy decision.

“Every little bit helps, big time,” he said. “It comes in very handy when you’re on limited funds.”

Alongside groceries, lunch is served. Last week clients chatted at tables between bites of pizza and watermelon and sips of juice. When things wound down, Johann Sasynuik, a volunteer who does a lot of the heavy lifting for the food bank, improvises some jazzy tune on the piano: “The hauling the corn up the stairs blues.” He plays

“when they ask me, or when the muse strikesme.”

Since its founding four years ago, the food pantry has seen big changes. Originally, it was a church function.

“We thought, ‘What can the church do to helpthe community, other than weddings, funerals,

baptisms?” Terbrueggen said. “There’s a need for helping fami-lies here in Fall City.”

Business was small at first, but grew more and more quickly.

“We started out with three orfour families,” Terbrueggen said. “Then the next week, it grew a little bit.”

“We’re way busier now,”Ewing said. “When it started, it was kind of skimpy. Donationswere skimpy. All of a sudden, it was like the floodgates opened. People came, money started coming in. Food comes in. It’s amazing to me.”

“The first three years, it was difficult,” Terbrueggen said.

“People would come through and our supplies would just drop. We’d begin to really worry about it—where were the supplies going to come from?But we’ve never been without.”

Volunteers never had to dig into their own pockets, he said.

“There’s a need and people are giving so youget back what you give out,” Terbrueggen said.

Every year, demand doubled, reaching its peak last winter with about 100 families coming forfood. Demand dipped to about 70 families this summer, but volunteers expect it to climb againthis fall.

Most clients are from Fall City, some come from Carnation and Duvall, and there are a sur-prising number of Snoqualmie and North Bendresidents.

Until last summer, the food pantry didn’t gethelp from big outside agencies. It was recently accepted by Northwest Harvest. The big food-bank supplier now provides some perishablesand bulk products, freeing up resources.

Volunteers, about 20 in all, have long relied on private donations and school drives. But a lot of food must still be bought. Cash donations arebanked with food purchases in mind.

For now, storage needs are met at the church,and equipment is provided by grants and local donations. But Terbrueggen isn’t sure what would happen if demand keeps growing. He’s waiting tosee what the results of the October benefit night are.

While the Fall City food bank is modest compared to some Valley charities—Mount Si Helping Hand Food Bank in North Bend helpsabout 300 families a month—volunteers see it as an important outreach.

“I feel like we’re helping people. When they pick up their things and leave, they stop and say ‘thank you.,” Ewing said. “I feel good about it.”

Returners seek repeat of conference dominanceBruce McDowell, helming the Cedarcrest trekkers for the

18th year, seeks a continuation of greatness: Championships in conference and districts, and a state return.

Last fall was good for the Red Wolves Cross Country squads. The girls claimed a Cascade ConferenceChampionship for the third consecutive season, takingninth at state.

The boys also had a quality season. It was the first timethat the Red Wolves qualified for state, taking sixth andending as the Cascade Conference Champions. Cedarcrestshould compete with Lakewood for top honors in the league this season.

Expected to lead the girls this fall, sophomores Diana Carr and Amelia Anderson had solid freshman years incross country and track, followed by a solid summer of training. McDowell is looking for good things from both.

Junior Molly Hammontree returns as a captain. Among upperclasswomen, some seniors may break into the topnine, but only time will tell, says McDowell.

The Cascade girls league is balanced on top, with Cedarcrest competing with South Whidbey, King’s andLakewood for the championship.

Among boys, no newcomers are likely to challenge the varsity group of returners. Looking likely to claim thetop four spots are seniors Mitch Montgomery and Logan Orndorf, and juniors Cody Wanichek and Dominic Dams.

Montgomery and senior Dante Bournique are captains. Both have been dependable members of the squad for the past three years. They’re two of the hardest workers on theteam, McDowell said.

McDowell wants to see everyone improve their times while still having fun.

It is our goal to implement the higheststandard of care at every patient encounter whether it is a child’s fi rst visit to the dental

Integrity, respect part of reloaded fall program

Cedarcrest High School’s varsity foot-ball program is expected to be a faster, more aggressive team this fall, its players emphasizing integrity and respect.

For his eighth season, head coach Jason Frederick will rely on a group of 13 athletic seniors. Players to watch include fullback/defensive back Martin Beckam, starting tackle/defensive end Josh Davidson, all-around player and halfback Justin Houser, lineman Tanner Marty, tight end Nick Gagner and running back Chris Dowd.

“Defensively, we’re smaller, but more athletic and quicker,” Frederick said, “so we’re going to be a lot more aggressive.”

He expects to run a lot of tricky Wing-T plays. Defensively, a handful of heavies will anchor mostly leaner, quicker plays.

Hunter Lee was the starting quarter-back, and turned in a good job against 3A Renton in the Sept. 2 season opener. The Red Wolves were tied 7-7 at the half, “but in the second, we outconditioned the other team. Our kids battled all four quar-

ters,” Frederick said, to end it 34-13.At a two-day retreat at the beginning

of practice, Frederick brought in Eastlake defensive coordinator Maui Borden, who helped the team develop core covenants.

“We’re committed to brotherhood, integrity, respect,” Frederick said.

Last year, the Red Wolves finished 5-5, and the coach expects to build from

there. Teams to beat in the league include Archbishop Murphy and Lakewood.

“We’re in that mix, but it’s going to be one game at a time, take them as they come,” Frederick said.

On Friday, Sept. 16, they face Archbishop Murphy in their first home game, inaugurating an improved Red Wolf stadium.

Seniors Josh Davidson, Robbie McNair and Nick Gagner help hold down the line on the Cedarcrest varsity football program this fall.

Faster, leaner Red Wolves hungry for wins

Volleyball is full team effort

It’s a tough league, but the Red Wolves’ returning vol-leyball veterans are stressing solid growth, every day.

The 2011 Cedarcrest High School varsity squad is led by three returning seniors: middle blockers Katie Birum and Jordan Short, and setter Lauren LaBrosse.

Birum is a natural blocker with “a high volleyball IQ,” head coach Brandon Jones said.

Short is a solid player who puts in a ton of extra time outside of practice to develop her skills. LaBrosse is the emotional leader of the team.

“Her skill and leadership are crucial to our success,” Jones said.

A key newcomer is Kendall Koch, who transferred from Eastmont High School in Wenatchee. Also in the mix are returning juniors Cassie Chriest, Maggie Gronberg and Kailyn Campbell.

The Lady Red Wolves were 4 and 10 last year. Once again, the Cascade league looks to be very tough, with Kings and Archbishop Murphy at the

top. Cedarcrest hopes to be right up there with them.Hard work will pay off, Jones says.“Our practice theme for this season is ‘Get one day bet-

ter,’” he said. “This is a realistic and reachable goal, and each girl is asked at the end of practice if they got one day better.

“Our athletes push each other every day at practice,” he added. “This is a full team effort.”

The meaning of brotherhoodNick Gagner is among the seniors boosting the team spirit on the Red Wolf gridiron this fall. The tight end seeks more touchdowns in 2011, and is also emphasizing brotherhood on the Cedarcrest team.

“To me, brotherhood is the team coming together,” he said. “We’re able to share personal experiences, able to hang out as a team with freshmen and underclassmen. The seniors are able to step up, take them under their wing, so when they come up, it’s the same for them.” NICK GAGNER

Fall 2011 mount si sports Preview

Expected to help lead the Wildcat distance runners this fall are, top, Abby Bottemiller, Bailey Scott and Erin Rylands, below, Richard Carmichael, Dom Canady and Ryan Olson.

Azhar Khandekar, Nate Popp, Camden Foucht and Josh Hamann are leading singles players for Mount Si.

The 2011 Mount Si volleyball team are, from left, back row, Manager Shayla Volland, Lauren Smith, Katelyn Hoydal, Haley Groth, Anna McCreadie, assistant coach Faith Hutcherson, head coach Bonnie Foote, Lexie Read, Krista Galloway; front row, Sydney Leonard, Brooke Bonner, Kailey Capelouto, Sarah McDonald, Noelle Stockstad, Rachel Hayford, Lindsay Carr.

The name says “Cross Country,” but these young athletes weredoing more than just running on the fourth day of practice.

Dozens were bouncing, doing push-ups and high-stepping during the Mount Si team’s drills at the home stadium. More were likely to join them in the days ahead, as the sport typically absorbsathletes cut from other programs but still needing to compete.

That’s what makes high school cross-country “awesome,” sayshead coach Christine Kjenner.

“We take kids of all abilities,” said Kjenner. “They all compete. They can all be successful. Nobody sits on a bench.”

While cross country is an individual sport, it’s also got a realteam aspect. Team members cheer each other on, help each other improve, and their camaraderie often propels them through the postseason.

While every runner takes part, the top seven competitors areconsidered varsity, and the top five score.

Mount Si hosts a jamboree this month, and the results will give a good idea of the team’s top placers and chances.

Mount Si’s chances this year depend on a new crop of leaders heading up a fairly young team.

On the boys side, look for Richard Carmichael, Dom Canady, Tim Corrie and Ryan Olson to lead a young but experienced contingent. Many have trained or competed this summer, and bring a lot of energy.

Carmichael, a senior, made it to districts and got to 17:30 on the course last season. He wants to go to state, “and break 17 minutes for sure.”

The girls team made it to districts as well last fall. Sophomore Bailey Scott, whose busted toe precluded a state appearance, isamong veterans Christina Volken, Ashley Jackson, Sarah Miller, Madeleine Bezanson, and fellow sophomores Abby Bottemillerand Erin Rylands, who brings a core of experience.

Bottemiller said the leaders need “to push it, be encouraging.”

Now in his fourth year helming Mount Si boys tennis, head coach Jim Gibowski has six returners from 2010. Sophomore Camden Foucht is expected to hold the number one singles spot, followed by junior Josh Hamann at two. Senior Azhar Khandekar should hold the number three singles spot, with Nate Popp claiming fourth.

On doubles, Matthew Griffin, a freshman, and Jake Miller, a senior, should lead, followed by seniors Alex Pease and Jake Rouches.

On doubles, Rouches and Pease “play so well together,” Gibowski said. “They communicate well, they’re kamikaze guys, they’re fearless.”

The top doubles players could fight for the singles and challenge spots.

“That’s nice,” the coach said. “That means I’ve got some depth on this team, more this year than last year.”

Long-term prospects

Youth clubs like RidgeValley and new U-12 teams have created a grass-roots foundation of players. Summer camps run by high school players also build skills and enthusiasm.

Kailey Capelouto is expected to be Mount Si’s primary setter. Big things are also expected of Lauren Smith, a junior who worked hard in the offseason. Newcomers include sopho-

more Lindsay Carr, a for-mer Snoqualmie resident who left for Virginia for a while, and Anna McCreadie, a freshman.

You can follow the team at mountsivolleyball.com.

Step up time

It’s going to take a lot of hard work to earn that fourth state appearance. That’s why Sarah McDonald comes to the gym every day, ready to compete.

McDonald, one of three seniors on the Mount Si varsity volleyball team with Brooke Bonner and Krista Galloway, knows she has a younger team compared to the groups that took sixth at state in 2009 and 2010.

“But everyone’s going to step up,” she said.

Turnout this fall, nearly 60 prospects, was the biggest in recent memory for the Wildcats.

“Kids are starting to dig playing volleyball,” said head coach Bonnie Foote, who is in her 12th year in the program. She doubles as Mount Si’s physical education teacher. Cruise control

Mount Si has talented vets, newcomers to

seek winning seasonLast season was a learning

experience for new coach Brandon Proudfoot. He’s better prepared this year to lead the Mount Si boys golf team to a winning season,

and he has the players to do it.

Mount Si went 6-1 last year and sent Jack Kelly to state. This fall, top returners, Sean Ballsmith and Mitchell Gardunia, both seniors, are counted on to lead with low scores.

“Both Sean and Mitchell hit the ball a long ways off the tee and can lead the team by making birdies and posting some low scores,” Proudfoot said.

The top newcomers are Jake Archambeau and Reed Pattenaude.

“Jake is a welcome sur-prise as he comes from play-ing football last year and is

now slated to be one of the top golfers on the squad,” Proudfoot said. “Reed is a good left-handed freshman who has a very consistent

game and will only get bet-ter as he continues to grow and get stronger.”

Team Captain Wesley Nelson, a senior, brings a

leadership personality.“Wes is a positive influ-

ence as team captain for the entire squad,” Proudfoot said. “He works hard and keeps fighting on the course even when faced with dif-ficult situations and our young golfers can really learn from him.”

Proudfoot expects Interlake to be the team to beat in the league; they won a state title last year.

Mount Si’s team is deep, though, with all players in the top ten able to post a top-five score that will count. That bodes well for the Wildcats in the current league format; Proudfoot is looking for a top-three fin-ish this year.

PUBLIC NOTICE #525686Final Public Notice

King County Flood Control District has applied for Severe Repetitive Loss grant funding from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, (FEMA) to fund the Severe Repetitive Loss Acquisition in Unincorpo-

rated King County. Pursuant to 44RFC 9.12, FEMA gives notice under Executive Order (EO) 11988, Floodplain Management, and regarding the following project:Project Description:This project involves acquiring a private residence, demolishing the structures on site and holding the land as open space in perpetuity. The property has a history of flooding and is defined as Severe Repeti- tive Loss property by FEMA. King County Water and Land Resources Division (WLRD) is the project sponsor and sub-grantee.Program:Severe Repetitive Loss Grant Program.Statement of why the homes are located in the floodplain: The home included in this project was constructed prior to the establishment of the National Flood Insurance Program (NIFP), within the 100-year floodplain of the Snoqualmie River. Significant Facts: This project implements the goals of the 2006 King County Flood Hazard Management Plan. Proposed alternative projects were dis- cussed at a public meeting held July 15, 2010 with home owners and representatives from FEMA, King County and the City of Snoqualmie. Public notice was given prior to this meeting; however, no adverse comments were received. This home was built prior to the adoption and imple- mentation of floodplain development requirements. This home is classified as a Severe Repetitive Loss Property by the NIFP. The NIFP encourages communities to develop mitigation projects to mitigate repetitive loss properties. Alternatives Considered: alternatives considered for this project included: acquisition, elevation, and no action. This project is the best alternative to riv- erine flooding at the project locations because of the nature of the flood hazard and the likelihood of project success in mitigat- ing the risk associated with this hazard. The property included in this project is subject to deep floodwaters that have occurred frequently, as demonstrated by their Severe Repetitive Loss stat- us. Acquiring this home is a practical approach to the flood hazard, and the acquisition alternative provides a high degree of certainty around eliminating future flood damages and pro- tecting residents. Acquisition of these structures offers a cost effective solution that will entirely eliminate the need for future state or federal disaster assistance on the parcels. The home owner in this case is a willing seller and is not interested in participating in a home elevation project. There- fore acquisition is the more at- tractive solution. The third option, no action, is not practical due to the fact that it would do nothing to mitigate the hazards faced by these structures, and the property owners would continue to be at risk and face the potential for disaster-related damages. Applicability of State/Local Floodplain Standards: This project conforms to all applicable State/Local floodplain standards.

Affects to the Floodplain: The home and structures are located within the 100-year floodplain and upon project completion will eliminate future potential structural damages and claims to the NFIP. This project will have no affect on the floodplain of the Snoqualmie River.Responsible Official Ms. Christine Jonientz-Trisler Hazard Mitigation Assistance Branch Chief FEMA Region 10 130 228th Street SW Bothell, WA 98021-9796 (425) 487-4689Additional information including a project map can be obtained from the applicant by contacting; Richelle Rose, Project Manager King County DNRP, River and Floodplain Management 201 S Jackson St, Suite 600 Seattle, WA 98104-3855 [email protected]( 206) 263-3178 Published in the Snoqualmie Valley Record on September 14, 2011.

PUBLIC NOTICE #525708Final Public Notice

King County Flood Control District has applied for Severe Repetitive Loss grant funding from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, (FEMA) to fund the Severe Repetitive Loss Home Elevations in Unin- corporated King County and the City of Issaquah. Pursuant to 44RFC 9.12 FEMA gives notice under Executive Order, (EO) 11988, Floodplain Management and regarding the following project:Project Description:This project involves the elevation of six repetitively flooded homes above the base flood elevation in Unincorporated King County and the City of Issaquah.King County Water and Land Resources Division (WLRD) is the project sponsor and sub-grantee.Program:Severe Repetitive Loss Grant ProgramStatement of why the homes are located in the floodplain: The homes included in this project were constructed prior to the establishment of the National Flood Insurance Program (NIFP), within the 100-year floodplain of the Snoqualmie River and Issaquah Creek. Significant Facts: This project implements the goals of the 2006 King County Flood Hazard Management Plan. Proposed alternative projects were dis- cussed at a public meeting held July 15, 2010 with home owners and representatives from FEMA, King County and the City of Snoqualmie. Public notice was given prior to this meeting; however, no adverse comments were received. Each home was built prior to the adoption and imple- mentation of floodplain development requirements. All six homes are classified as Severe Repetitive Loss Properties by the NIFP. The NIFP encourages communities to develop mitigation projects to mitigate repetitive loss properties. This elevation project includes seismic ret- rofit of the foundation systems in compliance with uniform build- ing codes.Alternatives Considered:

Alternatives considered for thestructures listed in this applica-tion included acquisition, eleva-tion, and no action. This projectis the best alternative to riverineflooding in each of the projectlocations because of the natureof the flood hazard and the likelihood of project success inmitigating the risk associatedwith this hazard. The propertiesincluded in this project aresubject to deep floodwaters thatdo not often flow through theproject sites at high velocities.As such, elevating the homes is apractical approach to the floodhazard, and by elevating thestructures three feet above BFE,the elevation alternative providesa high likelihood of reducingfuture flood damages andprotecting residents and theirproperty. Elevation of the struc-tures proposed here offers a costeffective solution that greatlyreduces the need for future stateor federal disaster assistance.Acquisitions are more suitablefor areas where lateral channelmigration or severe erosionpresents a risk of undercutting astructure. Since these residencesdo not face that type of risk, elevations are a more practical so-lution. Furthermore, the high val-ue of property in King Countymakes acquisitions very expen-sive, and this approach rarelysucceeds at being cost effective.The third option, no action, is notpractical due to the fact that itwould do nothing to mitigate thehazards faced by these structures,and the property owners would continue to be at risk, wouldcontinue to face the potential fordisaster-related damages, andwould continue to file insuranceclaims under the National FloodInsurance Program.Applicability of State/Local Floodplain Standards: Thisproject conforms to all applicableState/Local floodplain standards.Affects to the Floodplain: These structures are locatedwithin the 100-year floodplainand may still suffer some erosionor foundation damage duringflooding and structural andcontents damages from floods greater than 100-year floodevents. All materials used belowthe 100-year flood level will beflood resistant to minimize anypotential damage, and hydrostat-ic openings will be placed in theelevated foundations.This projectwill have no affect on the flood- plains of the Snoqualmie Riveror Issaquah Creek.Responsible Official Ms. Christine Jonientz-Trisler Hazard Mitigation Assistance Branch Chief FEMA Region 10 130 228th Street SW Bothell, WA 98021-9796 (425) 487-4689Additional information includinga project map can be obtainedfrom the applicant by contacting; Richelle Rose, Project Manager King County DNRP, River and Floodplain Management 201 S Jackson St, Suite 600 Seattle, WA 98104-3855 [email protected] (206) 263-3178Published in the SnoqualmieValley Record on September 14, 2011.

Ruby Doris Wilkie Ruby Doris Wilkie, 90, died

Wednesday, Aug. 17, at her home in Duvall.

Ruby was born on May 21, 1921, in Puyallup, to John and Bertha Petersen.

In 1940, Ruby married Earl Wilkie and joined him in pastoring the Assemblies of God church in Metaline Falls, Wash. In 1941, the couple went to El Salvador as Assemblies of God missionaries. After retir-ing from missionary service, Earl, Ruby and family settled in Kirkland, so they could be near Northwest College where sons John and Owen went to school. They attended Kirkland Assembly of God for many years and were involved in the church ministry there. For several years, Earl and Ruby drove school bus for the Bellevue School District.

Earl died in 1987. Ruby moved to Duvall. She began attending Stillwater Hill Community Church and became a volunteer at Cherry Valley Elementary School in Duvall, where she worked two and a half days a week, for 17 years, helping the children with their studies.

Ruby is survived by sister

Alice Neeley and her husband, Gene, of Puyallup; son John Wilkie and his wife, Mary Ann, of Boise, Idaho; son Owen Wilkie and his wife, Beverly, of Springfield, Miss.; son Bill Wilkie and his wife, Pauline, of Bremerton, Wash.; son Dan Wilkie and his wife, Sharon, from Duvall, Wash.; eight grandchildren and 15 great-grandchildren.

In lieu of flowers, a memori-al fund has been set up at Latin America Child Care, 1445 N. Boonville Ave., Springfield, MO. 65802.

Christian VikariDr. Christian Arthur

Vikari died Wednesday, Aug. 31, after a long illness.

Art was raised in

Washington, and was married to wife Valine for 27 years. They have five children.

He practiced oral surgery in Issaquah. As a Bishop in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, he minis-tered to his congregation.

Art was a devoted husband and father who loved the Lord and did his best to serve those around him. Throughout his life and even when suffering from difficult medical issues, Art would share his life’s motto; “It’s my best day yet!”

A memorial service was held September 6 at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Bellevue.

Emma de JongEmma Josephine de Jong,

98, of Fall City, died Sunday, Aug. 28, at Evergreen Hospice in Kirkland.

Emma was born on March 19, 1913, in Vincent, Wash., to Olaf and Inga Quaale. She was raised in Vincent and gradu-ated from Tolt High School. She married John Cornelius de Jong on July 11, 1935 in Goldendale. They settled in Carnation in 1946. John died on Feb. 10, 1986. She moved to Fall City in 1998.

CALENDARSNOQUALMIE VALLEY

Department of Fish and Wildlife Officer Chris Moszeter, whoserves this region, doesn’t think there’s been any increase.

“This is absolutely normal for Snoqualmie,” he said, “Look athow the Ridge is set up. It’s one giant clear-cut now.... People need to learn that they are in bear country.”

Bears, he explained, tend to stay under cover of trees during theiractive months. Typically, they search for food at night when they’reless likely to encounter people.

“The black bear is naturally a docile creature,” he said. And black bears are what we have here in the Valley. “Every bear we deal with— no matter what color it is, fire-engine red, black, or brown — in Snoqualmie, is a black bear.”

Moszeter guesses that the atypical weather this summer could have affected the bears’ patterns, making them more active when people are around. However, their instincts haven’t changed.

“From the time they come out of hibernation in March, until they go down in November... their sole purpose is to eat” he said.

In this area’s densely populated neighborhoods, food is mostreadily available in trash cans, which people often store alongside their homes instead of locked up in garages.

“That’s just ringing the dinner bell for a bear,” Moszeter said. The Ridge’s Residential Owners Association encourages mem-

bers to store trash cans in the garage, but with limited success.Another challenge is that six neighborhoods don’t have garages.For these residents, securing their garbage would require them to buy a $200 or $300 bear-proof can.

Moszeter feels that most bear problems would go away withinmonths if people simply stopped feeding the bears, unintentionally or not. Besides locking up or enclosing trash cans, he recommends getting rid of bird feeders squirrel feeders with their high-protein seeds so appealing to bears, and any other type of wildlife feeder.

Bears are rarely aggressive, unless cornered. If that happens,Moszeter admits they can be dangerous, but in general, he asks, “Are they something we should be concerned about munching onour children? Absolutely not.”

A non-aggressive bear that loses its fear of humans, though, isconsidered a danger, and could be removed from the area. TheState Department of Fish and Wildlife tries to avoid this option, because “relocation does not work,” Moszeter said.

The issue can be avoided if people just remember that they are living in bear country, according to Moszeter.

“When you’re in bear country, you have to be bear smart.”
