Tip of the Week For the week of September 9, 2024 Private Timber Lands Those who enjoy traveling the back roads of our private timber lands may have found locked gates or restricted access. This leaves some people to believe private timber companies deny access to their lands simply because they don’t want private citizens on their property. This is not the case. With the exception of active commercial use such as logging or harvest of other forest products, the closures are in reaction to the ever-increasing incidents of offensive littering, abandonment of vehicles, theft of forest products, and acts of criminal mischief. Some common acts of criminal mischief include destruction of property caused by 4X4s and ATVs riding in unapproved areas, destruction of road access gates, and more. Damage and theft detract from the natural beauty of our forests and incurs costs for cleaning, repairing, and removal of vehicles and garbage. These costs are passed onto private timber companies as well as taxpayers in the county. What can each of us do to stop the defacing of our forests and waterways? During your visit and when you leave forest lands and waterways: • Read signs posted at entry points into private & public lands – signs include important information including log truck activity. • Report criminal acts to law enforcement. • Report located dump sites or abandoned vehicles. • Stay informed of possible land use restrictions. This information is usually posted at each access. • When in doubt about access, contact the landowner or your Lincoln County Sheriff’s office Forest Patrol at (541)-265-4277. • Do not discard glass, cans, rubbish, trash, garbage, debris or litter other than in receptacles provided for these items. • Report anyone observed hauling trash or debris into our forests. • Consider bringing a trash bag or two to pick up trash you observe. • Do not discard any glass, cans, rubbish, trash, garbage, debris or litter in any waters of the state. • Do not drain, cause, or permit to be drained, sewage or the drainage from a cesspool, septic tank, recreational or camping vehicle waste holding tank or other contaminated source, upon the land of another without permission of the owner, or upon any public way. • When target shooting, be sure to pick up brass, targets, and anything else used during your visit. • Do not permit any rubbish, trash, garbage, debris or other refuse to be thrown from a vehicle you are operating. Our forestlands, public and private, should be treasured and protected by everyone. Through our efforts, we can strive to regain the trust of the private timber owners. The challenge for each of us is to take pride in where we live and work and clean up our county.

Tip of the Week For the week of September 2, 2024 School Bus Safety School is back in session, and you may be seeing more traffic, students walking or biking, and busses on the road. Drivers have a responsibility to stop for school buses displaying red flashing lights. Because buses are large vehicles, it is very difficult to see around them. The outcome of illegally passing a school bus can be devastating for children and drivers. Law enforcement agencies receive reports each year from bus drivers and community members about motorists failing to stop for school buses. With nearly 6,000 school buses operating in the State of Oregon, motorists need to be alert. When a bus is flashing amber lights, motorists should prepare to stop. When the red lights begin to flash, motorists traveling in both directions must stop before reaching the bus and must remain stopped until the red lights are turned off. The same rules apply to church or work buses equipped with amber and red flashing lights. Be aware when following any type of bus, it may make frequent stops. Oregon law requires motorists to stop whenever the red lights on a school bus are flashing, regardless of the direction they are traveling. The law applies to any roadway with two or more lanes of traffic, including multi-lane highways such as Highway 101. The only exception to the law is for divided highways with two roads separated by an unpaved median strip or barrier, such as in the Lincoln and Gleneden Beach areas. In this case, only drivers on the same side of the road as the bus must stop. A painted median strip or a center lane used only for left turns does not create two separate lanes. Where this situation exists, all lanes of traffic must stop. By staying alert and following traffic laws, you reduce the risk of traffic crashes and pedestrian injuries in our community. Please do your part to make our roads safe.

Tip of the Week For the week of August 26, 2024 Pet Safety on the Road Drivers and passengers alike know the importance of wearing their seatbelt when riding in a vehicle. Next time you take your pet with you, make sure they are just as safe. Many dog owners let their dog run loose in an open truck bed, not thinking about the dangers. No matter how well-trained or coordinated your dog is, they can still fall or jump out of the back of a truck. Oregon law requires a dog to be protected by a carrier or other restraint if transported on "the external part of a vehicle" on a highway. A carrier or cage is most ideal, but if you use a leash or lead, make sure it is of a length that doesn’t allow the dog to go over the side. A two-point restraint works best to ensure the animal can’t jump or be thrown in the event of a sudden stop or collision. If your pet travels inside the vehicle with you, remember that driving with any animal on your lap presents a distraction and puts the pet, driver, passengers, and other motorists at significant risk for a collision; a collision that would otherwise be preventable. There are numerous pet-specific vehicle restraints that work with your existing seatbelts and can be purchased either online or in pet stores. Remember to keep your pet’s collar with ID tags on during the trip and keep their license updated. An updated license (required for dogs, recommended for cats) and current contact information can help reunite you sooner if there is a collision or your pet gets separated from you another way. In addition to ensuring your pets are properly secured for the journey, remember to pack emergency supplies. Packing essentials such as extra food and water can make a big difference if you are stuck in traffic or inclement weather. Our pets love to be on the go with us. Show them how much you care by always considering their safety when you take them on the road.

Media Release 8/15/24 Lincoln County Sheriff's Office Receives State of the Art Drug Testing Device On 08/02/2024, the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office acquired and is now utilizing a new state of the art tool giving law enforcement a safer and smarter edge to combat drug problems in our communities. This device also aids in detecting explosives and chemical agents. The device is the TacticID Mobile handheld Raman analyzer produced by Metrohm. The Raman analyzer has already proven to be effective by confirming the identity of suspected illegal drugs, and in identifying suspected drugs as other substances in actual Sheriff’s Office cases. Your Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office was able to obtain the Raman analyzer through Lincoln County Health and Human Services with funding from Lincoln County Opioid Settlement Funds. The Raman analyzer will also be available to other law enforcement agencies in Lincoln County. Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office deputies and detectives are currently completing training conducted by Metrohm to ensure proper use of the device. Detective Chris Marks said, “The Raman analyzer is simple to use and much safer than previous methods of drug testing. Previous methods had a higher level of potential exposure to chemicals and accidental contact with the samples being tested due to unpackaging or repackaging samples for testing.” Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office Evidence Control Specialist Sara Tabb, who plays a critical role in packaging, preparing, and assisting in substance testing commented, “The Raman scanner is definitely a step forward in safe and reliable substance analysis. The device is safer and more efficient. While the Raman analyzer does not replace the requirement for crime lab testing and confirmation for prosecution, it does give us effective presumptive testing for the identification of the substances.” The Raman analyzer utilizes a laser to penetrate most forms of packaging including tough street samples, colored samples, and impure samples. It can rapidly scan directly through transparent containers. It then identifies substances by the returned spectrum and compares the data to the over 24,000 known substances in its database. The device requires calibration verification before each analysis so the operator can confirm its working correctly. Sheriff Curtis Landers stated, “We are always looking for better technology to empower our mission of enhancing public safety. One of the benefits of this device is that is also improves deputy safety and provides a tool for law enforcement agencies across Lincoln County.”

Tip of the Week For the Week of August 19, 2024 Back to School Many families find themselves getting ready for back to school. With many public and private schools throughout Lincoln County, motorists need to remember to slow down near neighborhoods and schools. How do I know when the school zone speed limit is active? A school speed zone is in effect each morning and afternoon when school is in session, when children are walking to and from school, and when there’s a chance they may be present. The speed limit is 20 mph in a posted school zone between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. on schooldays. If the school zone is equipped with a flashing yellow light(s), the speed limit is in effect when flashing. These speed limits help keep children safe. Many of our schools include students in kindergarten through twelfth grade. With varying ages, heights, and abilities, a parked car can obscure students’ view of traffic and your view of them. Students may be distracted while stepping onto the roadway or forget to look before crossing the street. Driving at 20 mph will give you more time to react and avoid a collision. The following chart reveals the distance required to stop at specific speeds. Speed Distance Required to Stop 20 MPH 64 feet 25 MPH 86 feet 30 MPH 112 feet 35 MPH 138 feet 40 MPH 170 feet Traffic crashes are one of the deadliest hazards our children face. Let's do our part when we pass schools by slowing down, watching, and expecting the unexpected. Everyone needs to do their part to ensure the safety of our children.

Media Release 8/13/24 Multiple Agency Teamwork Successfully Locates Missing 10-Year-Old South Beach Boy On 08/13/2024, the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office received an urgent call on concern from a South Beach, OR family who were unable to locate their autistic 10-year-old son. The family reported noticing their son was missing within three minutes and had looked for him briefly before calling for help. The City of Newport Police Department and Newport Fire Department responded to assist in attempting to locate the missing boy while Sheriff’s Office Search and Rescue “SAR” resources gathered to organize a broader search operation. Approximately two hours after the boy went missing, an alert employee from the Oregon Coast Aquarium noticed a juvenile playing in the mud flats approximately 300 feet off SE 30th St in the Yaquina Bay and reported it to management staff who reported it to Law Enforcement. City of Newport Police and Fire responded to the area of SE 30th St with Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office personnel and located the missing boy playing in the water. Multiple personnel waded out into the mud flats to retrieve the boy and reunite him with his family. Lincoln County SAR volunteer personnel respond to a multitude of dangerous conditions, but a lost autistic 10-year-old requires seamless cooperation and coordination from all available resources. The Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office is grateful to the City of Newport Police Department and the City of Newport Fire Department for their willingness to provide assistance at a moment’s notice.
