Fireworks limit access to popular waterfront areas July 3-5

Preparations for the 4th of July holiday will limit access to several Port of Hood River waterfront properties beginning Sunday, July 3 when the Hood River Eye Openers Lions Club will begin setting up its fireworks display just west of the mouth of the Hood River.
The following areas will be closed or have limited access:
The Spit: The Port will close the Spit area at noon on Sunday, July 3 until noon on Tuesday, July 5.
Event Site Access to Sandbar: Access to the Sandbar from the Event Site will be closed at 7PM on July 4 to all users due to fireworks. Kiteboard launching and landing from the Event Site grass is prohibited.
Marina Beach and Marina Park: The sandy area of the Marina Beach will be closed at 7PM on July 4. Once the Marina Park parking areas are full, “Closed” signs will be posted at the entrance and additional vehicles will not be allowed into Marina Park.
Use of fireworks by the public is prohibited on all Port properties, including the Marina and Waterfront areas. This policy is strictly enforced. People planning on watching the fireworks from the Marina and the Waterfront are reminded that the show’s conclusion usually brings very heavy traffic congestion. The Port urges patience and cooperation to help ease the pressure created by the large number of vehicles attempting to exit the area at the same time. Dark conditions and heavy pedestrian traffic during this time make it all the more important to use caution and take your time driving in the area.
For more information, call the Port of Hood River at (541) 386-1645 or email porthr@gorge.net.

Port of Hood River Lower Mill (Historical Hanel Mill) Redevelopment Nears Completion

Industrial lots could be ready to sell by summer
By: Payton Rigert, Port of Hood River 2016 HRVHS Intern
The Lower Mill site restoration is in its final stages. In preparation for utilities to be installed, the land is being compacted and wet areas filled in. The project has been very successful in cleaning up the Brownfield site, especially the old “log pond,” which was the area of most concern.
Excavation and fill of log pond near complete
The wood waste has all been removed and the resulting hole is almost all the way filled. The compacting of the new dirt in the hole has caused some water to bubble up from the wood pond and a pipe has been installed to pump out this water. According to Port Property and Development Manager, Anne Medenbach, JAL Construction Inc. has done an excellent job assessing these different situations and working with the Port on the restoration.
Port Development/Property Manager, Anne Medenbach on-site, Lower Mill Development
Medenbach described the next step in the development of the land that will begin around June. She will be working closely with engineers to create the lay-out plan for the buildings, electrical, and plumbing components that will be added to the property. That lay-out plan will then be put “out to bid” for contractors around the state to propose pricing, timing, and execution plan. Medenbach has been overseeing this project since the beginning, when negotiations for the land purchase from Hanel Development Corp. started in 2014.
The total volume of dirt taken from the “log pond” is approximately 20,000 cubic yards. A truck can carry about 15 to 18 yards of dirt, making it not cost effective to transport the dirt to a different area. This dirt is approved for fill use and some gardening. The dirt is located in the back corner of the lot and it is free of charge to pick up.
Come get some dirt!
