By Jessie StenslandCo-Editor

A group of Central Whidbey residents are trying to stop a road project that’s supposed to improve safety and provide additional stops for Island Transit buses.

Barbara Vaughan said she and a group of neighbors are concerned that the Washing-ton Department of Transportation’s plans to reconfigure the intersection of Highway 20 at Parker Road would actually make the area less safe. They also question the wisdom of proposed bus turn-outs.

The residents have been outspoken about their concerns for years. But as the project draws closer, the group is making a last effort to put an end to it.

“I think we should shut the whole thing down,” she said, “and start from square one.”

The group of five residents urges the public to attend a meeting they are holding at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 10, at the Pacific Rim Institute, which is adjacent to the impending construc-tion site on Parker Road.

The members of the loose-knit group, she said, feel that the $5.8-million project — par-ticularly the bus turn-in lanes — is a waste of money, will be unsafe and will create an ugly entranceway to Ebey’s Landing National His-torical Reserve.

Vaughan said the project was originally pushed by Martha Rose, former Island Tran-sit director, who also had plans for a pedestri-an tunnel nearby.

Yet Tom Pearce, a spokesman for DOT, said the project is already all set to go.

The proposals have been the subject of many public meetings over the years and went

through changes.He said the project is going out to bid in

May. Construction will be this summer.According to Pearce, the project would

close the intersection at Parker Road and the highway. Parker Road would be re-routed to Morris Road, which intersects with the high-way just south of the current Parker Road intersection.

Left-turn lanes would be added on the highway at Morris Road and the county transfer stations.

The intersection of the highway and Smith Prairie Road would also be closed.

In addition, the project calls for bus turn-outs on both sides of the highway near Morris Road.

Coupeville Middle and High School leaders are working toward a new class schedule structure for the 2015-16 school year.

The new structure will mean more course offerings for students and may po-tentially impact graduation requirements.

Principal Larry Walsh and Assistant Principal Duane Baumann have been working with a committee of staff volun-teers since early fall to research possible structure changes.

After consulting other districts and polling students and teachers, the commit-

Deep Sea owner sued for $1.2 mill.

The owner of the Deep Sea crab boat that caught fire, sank and spilled oil in Penn Cove is going to jail and is being sued for $1.2 million.

Rory Westmoreland, a Renton scrap-metal dealer, was sentenced to 75 days in jail and ordered to pay a $1,000 fine in Is-land County District Court Monday.

The state Attorney General’s Office, representing the Department of Natural Resources, filed a lawsuit against Westmo-reland in Island County Superior Court last week. The suit aims to recoup costs incurred in disposing of the vessel.

In addition, the Department of Ecol-ogy last year fined Westmoreland $301,000 for the oil spill that resulted from the Deep Sea sinking.

Yet Penn Cove Shellfish has yet to see a penny of compensation for the disas-ter, which forced the closure of shellfish harvest for a month in 2012 and had other, longer-range consequences for the busi-ness.

Co-owner Ian Jefferds said he filed a claim with the National Pollution Fund Center, run by the Coast Guard, a couple years ago but hasn’t heard anything back.

tee decided a “5-by-5” sched-ule would best suit district needs.

A 5-by-5 schedule consists of “A” and “B” days with five periods each day. Students would have the opportunity to sign up for 10 classes each semester.

Staff started looking at options with new “Core 24” requirements coming down the pike in 2019, meaning stu-dents will need 24 credits to graduate.

Walsh and Baumann pre-sented their proposal to the school board Monday.

Superintendent Jim Shank said he supported the proposal and recommended

the board approve the di-rection the committee was headed.

Right now, Coupeville faces challenges in its sched-ule, Baumann said. Fresh-men currently have two op-tions for sixth period — PE or English.

Coupeville could poten-tially lose students to online schools or other districts on the island, Walsh said.

Creating a new schedule structure will give students an opportunity to take more electives.

During its research, the committee also polled stu-dents to see what kinds of electives they’d be interested in having. Subjects ranged from more language options

to engineering and wood-shop.

The school board unani-mously approved the recom-mendation to move forward with the new schedule.

The next step, Walsh said, is to put it out to the students to figure out what classes to offer.

He estimated having an informal master schedule to present in March with the hopes of having everything finalized for ninth grade reg-istration this spring.

In addition to the new schedule, the school board will have to look at district graduation requirements.

Historically, Coupeville has required more credits than required by the state.

Morris Road, which would be adjacent to the Central Whidbey Sportsmen’s As-sociation.

She also noted that anoth-er bus stop was just a short distance away at the Island Transit facility.

Vaughan said she and the

other residents believe that there are inexpensive solu-tions to making the section of the highway safer.

They proposed a com-bination of speed reduction and rumble strips could be the job.

By Jim WallerStaff Reporter

Last week was a good one for the Coupeville High School basketball teams.

The girls won twice, drubbing Chimacum 63-29 Wednesday in Coupeville and 58-35 at Port Townsend Friday.

The victories upped the Wolves’ Olympic League re-cord to 4-0 (10-5 overall).

The boys lost to visiting Chimacum 87-55 Wednesday but picked up a critical win at home Friday, edging Port Townsend 53-49.

The win helped the Wolves (1-3, 5-9) move into a tie for third with Port Townsend (1-3, 1-13); the top three teams qualify for the district tournament.

Both Coupeville teams played at Chimacum Tues-day; results were not available at press time.

Friday, the girls host second-place Klahowya (3-1, 3-10) at 4:45 p.m. while the boys travel to Klahowya (3-1, 4-10) for a 3:30 p.m. game.

From there, the Wolves face each Olympic League 1A school (Chimacum, Kla-howya and Port Townsend) one more time during the regular season.

1st-place girls pick up 2 more wins

The Chimacum game was over early as the Wolves raced to a 29-3 lead.

Julia Myers, who finished the game with a season-high 21 points, got the Wolves go-ing with seven first-quarter points; Madeline Strasburg chipped in for six.

Six points from both My-ers and Makana Stone helped the Wolves keep rolling in the

second quarter as they led 38-9 at halftime.

The Cowboys failed to put a dent in the lead after the break.

Hailey Hammer led six Coupeville scorers in the third quarter with four points, and the Wolves took a 50-17 lead into the last period.

For the game, Stone fol-lowed Myers with 14 points. Hammer and Strasburg fin-ished with eight points, Kacie Kiel four, Mia Littlejohn three, Wynter Thorne three and Monica Vidoni two.

Stone registered another double-double, snaring 15 re-bounds (eight on offense).

Halftime adjustments helped Coupeville pop Port Townsend.

“It was a battle from the opening tip until late into the fourth,” coach David King said.

The turning point came in the third quarter.

“The players took to heart what we needed to fix coming out for the third,” King said.

The Wolves, who were forced to use a zone defense much of the first half because of foul issues, returned to a man-to-man in the third pe-riod, resulting in steals and fast breaks.

“Players were flying around, anticipating passes and tipping or stealing them,” King said.

Coupeville also took advantage of its height in the post and Myers led the offense with eight points in the period as the Wolves out-scored the Red Hawks 22-8 and led 47-27 heading into the fourth quarter.

In the second period, the Redhawks jumped ahead 13-11, then the Wolves received a spark from Vidoni. With My-

ers and leading-scorer Stone in foul trouble, Vidoni picked up the slack with eight sec-ond-quarter points, including two three-point plays. One was set up by a nice feed from McKenzie Bailey.

The game was “rough” and “ugly,” King said, and the winless Red Hawks (0-4, 0-14) “came ready to play and showed no fear.”

Stone, who missed much of the game because of foul

trouble, still posted 20 points, seven rebounds, three assists and three steals.

Kiel added two points, eight rebounds, five assists and three steals.

Hammer had eight points, seven rebounds, two assists and two blocks.

Strasburg registered five points and four assists.

Myers finished with 12 points, Vidoni eight, Little-john two and Kellner one.

After tough loss, boys bounce back

The tone of the Chima-cum game was set right away as the Cowboys raced to a 13-3 lead; it upped the mar-gin to 23-8 at the end of the quarter.

Coupeville, with 12 points from Wiley Hesselgrave, out-scored the Cowboys 16-15 in the second quarter. In the pe-riod, the Wolves trailed 36-12 but went on a 12-2 run in the last 1:14 to cut the lead to 38-24 at the break.

Chimacum put the game away with a big second half, starting with a 27-point third quarter.

Hesselgrave finished with 18 points; Johnson 10; Joel Walstad, Aaron Trumbull and Aaron Curtin six; Matt Shank and Gabe Wynn four; and DeAndre Mitchell two.

Curtin had eight re-bounds, C.J. Smith five and Shank four.

Coupeville adopted a new mindset going into the Port Townsend game, coach Smith said.

“Every game is a playoff game for us.”

Once Coupeville dropped its first three league games, Smith said, the Wolves need-ed to approach each contest like it was a loser-out playoff game if they wanted to reach the postseason.

The Port Townsend game was full of surges by each team, and the lead changed frequently.

PT led by one, 42-41, go-ing into the fourth period.

After the Wolves missed three consecutive free throws, Walstad and Hesselgrave scored to put Coupeville on top, 47-44.

Five straight Redhawk points gave PT the lead, 49-47, with 40 seconds left.

It appeared Coupeville tied the score 10 seconds later, but the hoop was erased by a basket interference call.

The Wolves’ press forced a 10-count, and the turn-over allowed Smith to score with 10 seconds left to tie the game. He was fouled on the play but missed the free throw.

Walstad grabbed the re-bound and was fouled.

The senior calmly sank both foul shots to put Coupe-ville up 51-49 with eight sec-onds remaining.

A Coupeville foul put Port Townsend on the line with a chance to tie with 2.9 seconds remaining. The Redhawk, however, missed both shots and Hesselgrave rebounded, was fouled and hit both free throws, completing the scor-ing.

Walstad pumped in a season-best 17 points; Smith added 11; Hesselgrave 10; Trumbull four; and Ryan Griggs, Shank and Johnson two each.

CHS girls hold on to 1st; boys pick up needed win

At first glance, Pieris japon-ica and Camellia japonica don’t seem to have much in common other than the second part, or specific epithet, of their Latin binomial. That japonica merely tells us each of these members of the Pieris and Camellia gen-era were probably developed in Japan, like so many other land-scape plants with japonica in their names.

In fact, they are members of entirely different plant families and their flowers, which range in color from white to shades of pink and red, are as unlike in shape and form as an orchid is from a rose. But take a closer look and you’ll notice some common traits that make them assets in a win-ter woodland garden.

Both Pieris and camellias are evergreen shrubs to small trees that like acid soil, something we have in abundance here due to the perpetual needle fall from the surrounding native evergreens, so they’re good companions for rhodies and azaleas. They can also thrive in dappled shade.

Pieris japonica is sometimes called Japanese andromeda, and white flowered varieties have inspired another name, Lily of the Valley shrub, because of the many panicles of snowy, urn-shaped flowers.

Another common variety of Camellia is C. sasanqua, which is shorter and has smaller leaves. They’re cousins to C. sinensis, the source of tea leaves that quench the thirst of billions of people worldwide and is arguably one of our most culturally important plants.

Depending on the variety, camellias can bloom from fall to spring and are a good choice for color during the chilly months. Pieris don’t bloom until spring but will set attractive sprays of tiny buds in the winter, and new growth can transform from brilliant red or yellow to green, adding even more interest to an off-season garden.

Camellia flower buds form soon after they finish flowering, so pruning them isn’t something you want to put off till the good weather returns, or you’ll end up snipping off all of next year’s blooms. Other than that, they enjoy a good trimming and can form a veritable tower of flowers if pruned regularly into a dense bush. If you choose, you can trim up taller varieties into trees.

Though some gardening resources insist both of these shrubs tolerate full shade, it’s been my experience they want and need some sun during part of the day and may not bloom without it. This knowledge is hard won.

I have a row of camellias along the shadiest side of my house near the forest’s edge. They were planted long before we bought our property and in the almost two decades we’ve been there only two of them have bloomed. These two are located near an open-ing in the trees where some sun can pierce the gloom. I’m planning on removing the rest and finding them a new, sunnier home.

What’s more, a Pieris I’d planted nearby, but in a bit more sun, hadn’t done much of anything in the past several years but look at me forlornly – no flowers and not much growth. I finally uprooted it a few months ago and moved it 40 or 50 feet to the east, where it gets a blast of morning sun. Now it’s covered in masses of flower buds, it’s got me looking forward to its fragrant summer blooms, and neither of us is looking the least bit forlorn.

Both Pieris and Camellias are good for winter gardens

Focus should be on replacing our leaders, not our airplanes

Editor, To all of the concerned Citizens of Ebey’s Reserve and all

other noise complainers, you are looking in the wrong direc-tion.

You had better start directing your energy toward replac-ing the inept government we have instead of getting rid of airplanes.

If we don’t get our heads out of the sand and start voting some of these career politicians out of office, you won’t need to concern yourself with airplane noise because they will get rid of our military completely.

And whomever they sell the rest of the country to won’t care about any of your complaints.

It’s time to turn things around and get back to the govern-ment working for the people and not the people working for the government.

It amazes me that the top job in our country, the presi-

dent, has term limits and yet every congressman and senator just needs to get elected one time and we own them for the rest of time, along with their families.

Let’s all get out and exercise our Constitutional right to vote for whom we want to represent us and get rid of the “good old boys club.”

Let’s impose term limits on all of them so we can get fresh blood and ideas once in a while instead of the same old “Let’s pass it then read it” mentality that this current group seems to suffer from.

And lastly, anyone who has never opened their eyes in the morning and not stopped to say thank you to all of our ser-vice men and women for being able to get out of bed and do whatever you choose with your life because they are out there doing what they do best to give you that right and freedom.

Thank you to all the military personal past, present and future.

Keep up the good work.Dick Johnson

Firewood, Fuel& Stoves

NOTICEWashington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (re- ceipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d bu ye r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quan- tity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the de- livery vehicle.The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a cord by v isual iz ing a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet . Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.To make a f i r ewood complaint, call 360-902- 1857.

The Department of Ecol-ogy also filed a complaint but has already been paid by the fund.

“It had a huge impact on our business,” Jefferds said.

“We didn’t get a seed set in as a result,” he said, refer-ring to the mussels that grow on rafts in Penn Cove.

Christopher Anderson, a deputy prosecutor with Island County, also empha-

sized the impact the spill had on the economy in his sen-tencing memorandum.

“The defendant’s actions jeopardized the business of not only Penn Cove Shellfish, which actually lost significant business, but also numer-ous inns, hotels, restaurants and other businesses around Penn Cove that rely on the natural beauty of Penn Cove to attract patrons,” Anderson wrote.

Westmoreland, the owner

of Northwest Steel & Recy-cling, purchased the 141-foot, steel-hulled crab boat from the Port of Seattle for $2,500 in November of 2011.

The port advertised the boat on Craigslist as scrap metal. As part of the terms of the sale, Westmoreland assured the port that his plan was to have the boat scrapped. He even provided information that he had a pre-arranged dry dock where he intended to cut it up, ac-cording to Anderson.

Instead of taking the boat to dry dock, he had it towed to Penn Cove, where it was illegally anchored in state-owned tidelands in Decem-ber of 2011.

The state Department of Natural Resources first contacted Westmoreland in January 2012 and informed him that he either needed to remove the vessel or ob-tain authorization to keep it moored in Penn Cove. The DNR kept in regular contact with Westmoreland and even located multiple marinas where he could take the boat, but he “never took any genu-ine steps towards having the vessel removed from Penn Cove,” Anderson wrote.

In March of 2012, the DNR sent Westmoreland a notice of trespass that stated he would be fined for every day he failed to remove the vessel.

“Immediately after re-ceiving this notification, on March 13, 2012,” Anderson wrote, “the defendant at-tempted to fire sale the boat by duping an acquaintance, Patrick Roth, into purchasing the vessel from him for $100, in a hastily written agree-ment on a piece of notebook paper.”

The agreement said Roth had 40 days to move the boat. Westmoreland then contact-ed the DNR and informed officials that he no longer owned the boat.

The DNR, however, con-tacted Roth and informed him that the vessel had to be moved immediately and that fines were accruing. Roth immediately contacted West-moreland and rescinded the deal, according to Anderson.

On the night of May 12, 2012, the Deep Sea caught fire in what was later deter-mined to be arson. It sank to the bottom and spilled 5,555 gallons of diesel.

The DNR contacted Westmoreland, who said he did not plan on taking responsibility for raising the vessel, but suggested that it be left on the bottom of Penn Cove. He said he did not know how the fire started but

he thought it might have been “kids playing with matches,” the memorandum states.

Anderson noted that Westmoreland was never charged with arson in con-nection with the burning of the Deep Sea.

The prosecutor’s office did, however, charge him with a vessel abandonment, a misdemeanor charge. He pleaded guilty last month.

Last week, Anderson argued that Westmoreland should receive the maximum sentence of 90 days in jail and a fine of $1,000.

“This offense represents the most serious violation of the derelict vessel statute since its inception,” he said in a statement to the Whid-bey News-Times. “Besides holding Mr. Westmoreland accountable, this case should serve as a deterrent to others who might abandon vessels in the pristine waters around Island County.”

Jefferds and Steve Foster, a resident who lives on Penn Cove, spoke at the hearing. Jefferds said he discussed the impact on his business and rebutted a claim by Westmo-reland’s attorney, Cooper Of-fenbecher of Seattle, that his client was remorseful.

Foster spoke about the an-ger and frustration the com-munity felt after the incident, according to Anderson.

Offenbecher argued that Westmoreland should receive a suspended sentence.

District Court Judge Bill Hawkins sentenced Westmo-reland to 75 days, 15 days less than the maximum.

“We are disappointed in the jail sentence, which we do not believe was warranted given the unusual facts,” Of-fenbecher wrote in a state-ment to the newspaper. “Mr. Westmoreland was well-in-tentioned and got caught up in circumstances beyond his control. He never intended for any harm to come to the Deep Sea or Penn Cove.”

He added that he and his client respect the judge’s deci-sion and Westmoreland looks forward to putting the matter behind him.

The silver lining in the disaster may be that the state lawmakers toughened the laws regarding derelict vessels and the state’s response.

Jefferds said he is happy about the new laws, but he’s still dissatisfied with the way the DNR handled the prob-lem in the first place.

The broken-down boat filled with fuel was anchored near his mussel farms for more than four months when someone started the fire.
