Mr. Henry continues to double speak. We simply don’t understand the disfunction at the Oregon State Marine Board and why they continue to have so much riding with a guy that is so wishy washy.
Just last month the OSMB was accused of abused budgets and were outside legislative spending guidelines. 100,000 paddle craft to pay registration fees like all other power craft fixes allot of budget problems don’t you think? The issues continue to landslide.
First it was Waldo Lake, then the Newberg Pool between Canby and Newberg, then the Inside Ross Island, and now they are continuing efforts to CLOSE the Holgate Channel. Which section of river or body of water will be next right in your back yard?
