Safe return home: Oregon health officials continue support after rare virus exposure
OHA release - In early May, Oregon Health Authority (OHA) epidemiologists learned that an Oregon resident had been aboard the cruise ship MV Hondius, where health officials were investigating an outbreak of a rare virus called Andes hantavirus. Since then, OHA has worked closely with local, federal, and international partners to monitor the Oregon resident and plan for their safe return. The Oregon resident returned home on June 1 after staying 21 days at the National Quarantine Unit (NQU) at the University of Nebraska Medical Center. They will remain in home quarantine through June 21. This 42-day period follows their return to the United States on May 10, which is the incubation period for Andes hantavirus.

Waterway Access Permits Waived for Non-motorized Boats During ODFW Free Fishing Days, June 6 - 7
Oregon State Marine Board release - The Oregon State Marine Board, in partnership with the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW), will not require non-motorized boat operators to have a waterway access permit in conjunction with free fishing, clamming and crabbing days. In 2019, when the Waterway Access Permit program was approved by the Oregon Legislature, with an exemption for permit requirements on ODFW-designated Free Fishing Days. In 2025, the program was expanded, requiring all lengths of non-motorized boats to purchase a waterway access permit when operating a boat on the water. One hundred percent (100%) of the revenue supports two important programs: aquatic invasive species watercraft inspection stations, managed by ODFW, and non-motorized access development and facility improvements via OSMB boating facility grants to public facility owners wanting to improve access specifically serving paddlers. Per ODFW, no fishing/shellfish licenses or tags/validations are required on these days (meaning you do not need a Combined Angling Tag, Columbia River Basin Endorsement, Ocean Endorsement or two-rod validation where two rods are allowed). Both Oregon residents and nonresidents can fish for free.?Oregon State Parks also offers free parking on Saturday, June 6. Existing exemptions include youth 13 and younger, surfboards, sailboards and kiteboards, and non-motorized boats under 10 feet engaged in whitewater recreation activities on a Marine Board Whitewater Exempt Waterways void of any developed access sites. See a list of exemptions on the Marine Board’s Waterway Access Permit FAQ page. Read ODFW’s Free Fishing Days news release and what rules apply. For people new to non-motorized boating, visit the Marine Board’s map of waterways designated as restricted motor or electric motor only to help you plan your weekend adventure.

State Parks Day Includes Free Parking for Oregon Residents, Saturday, June 6
OPRD release - SALEM, Oregon—Every year, Oregon State Parks begins the busier season with a small thank you to Oregon residents — free day-use parking on State Parks Day. State Parks Day has been a tradition since 1998 to celebrate Oregonians’ love for the state park system. On June 6, 2026, Oregon State Parks will waive the day-use parking fees on parks that typically require them for Oregon residents. “State Parks Day is a commemoration of the places that connect us to Oregon’s natural beauty and to one another. We appreciate everyone who helps keep these spaces vibrant and welcoming,” said Oregon Parks and Recreation Interim Director, Stefanie Coons. Park staff have worked hard over the last few months to get the parks ready for the summer season and State Parks Day. The list of projects includes everything from clearing storm damage and downed trees, to upgrades to electrical, water and sewage lines. Below are some featured events and activities across the state to help celebrate this traditional day in Oregon. State Parks Day Events: The Cove Palisades - The Cove Palisades’ annual Festival of The Land invites visitors to reflect on the question “What makes The Cove special to you?” through a celebration of the region’s natural, cultural, and historical richness. Community partners share hands-on learning experiences ranging from wildlife and fire education to farm games and a small farmers' market. New this year are the Pollination Patrol station and a community “quilt” project honoring what visitors value about the park. The day also features native flute music by award-winning musician James Greeley, along with food and drink vendors. L.L. Stub Stewart State Park - At L.L. Stub Stewart, the summer star party series returns with an evening of stargazing hosted by OMSI, Rose City Astronomers, and Oregon State Parks. Visitors of all ages can explore the night sky through telescopes, enjoy an OMSI presentation, and join a park ranger-led nighttime hike that reveals the park’s after-dark wildlife. Held at the Hilltop Day-Use Area. Guests are encouraged to bring warm layers, flashlights (to use only in red-light mode), and even their own telescopes. Pets on leash are welcome, and accessibility accommodations are available with advance notice. Shore Acres State Park - Shore Acres State Park transforms its botanical gardens into a hub for plant lovers, with local gardening groups and experts from OSU Master Gardeners to the Southern Oregon Native Plant Society on hand to answer questions and share knowledge. Visitors can enjoy a midday performance by the Side of the Tide Morris Dancers and stop by the historic Garden House for refreshments. LaPine State Park - At LaPine State Park, a park ranger-guided hike leads visitors on a 1.5-mile walk to the world’s largest Ponderosa pine, commemorated as “Big Tree.” The route winds past an oxbow lake and through classic Central Oregon forest, offering opportunities to learn about the wildlife and plant communities that thrive in the area. Registration is required. Prineville Reservoir State Park - Calling all young builders! This hands-on celebration invites kids and families to create their very own birdhouse in honor of Oregon State Parks Day. A park ranger will be teaching participants about the diverse bird species that call Oregon home while encouraging creativity and curiosity.

After 15 Years, haich ikt’ at’uu Comes to Siuslaw Estuary
by Morgan Gaines / Wednesday, 03 June 2026 / Published in Public Notices, Tribal Event, Tribal News - Coalition celebrates breach of levee, adding a connection to traditional waterways. This story originally appeared on Underscore Native News by Brian Bull, Published June 3, 2026. On the foggy morning of May 29, a thick, earthen barrier was the only thing separating a restored dairy farm from its reclaimed destiny: an estuary to welcome back the Salmon People, as well as lamprey, shorebirds, and numerous plants not seen on the premises since the mid-1800s. Tall, dinosaur-like excavators stood on either side of the levee, with a crowd of people from the Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw Indians (CLUSI), the McKenzie River Trust, and the Siuslaw Watershed Council watching from roughly 50 feet away on a raised mound of earth, clad in hard hats and reflective vests. Nearby, Dan Kirk, the restoration projects manager for CLUSI, waved a smoldering bundle of sage across the damp landscape. “This is a big moment that a lot of our project partners and community members have been waiting for,” smiled Kirk. “It’s going to be really beautiful and amazing for everyone.” Blessings have been done nearly daily for about a month, at a site that has undergone an incredible transformation since redevelopment began in the late summer of 2023. Contractors leveled out the terrain and removed drainage ditches and other agricultural fixtures, while in June 2024, CLUSI officials approved a new name for the 217-acre expanse: haich ikt’at’uu. It means “heart of the river.” “It makes me think of heartbeat and pulse,” said Kirk, as they walked to the levee. “That’s what I get excited about, is just seeing the rhythm of the river do its thing.” The McKenzie River Trust acquired the Waite Ranch site for $750,000 in 2010 with a grant from the Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board. Since then, the total cost has been roughly $16 million, according to Kirk. A large portion of that is a 1.2 mile earthen ridge -or berm- that protects the section of Highway 126 that runs adjacent to the estuary. “Today we will be reconnecting the tidal Siuslaw River into the site,” said Kirk, as a survey team put up a wide yellow barrier called a silt curtain between the Siuslaw River and the levee. “So creating about 180 acres of new wetland that was historically tidal wetland before the mid-1800s when it became a dairy farm.” Huddled with the observers was Margaret Treadwell, the central coast conservation program manager for the McKenzie River Trust. She had never seen a levee breach before, and was excited for what was to happen in the next few minutes. “The waters of the Siuslaw River are going to come back into this place from the tide for the first time in probably over 100 years. It’s returning the natural processes to this place.” Breaking down to rise up - At 7:33 a.m., an excavator lowered its toothed bucket against the earthen levee, and readily broke it apart as the onlookers cheered. River water coursed in immediately, seeping quickly into the area that hadn’t touched brackish water for generations. “Keep an eye out for animals coming back in,” said Treadwell. She said wildlife has a way of knowing when things like breaches happen, and return to their ancient habitat. “It’s a pretty good feeling,” said CLUSI Chief Doug Barrett. He’d performed a short ceremonial drum song to complement Kirk’s blessing of the estuary. Until this moment, he’d only really known of the site as farmland. Barrett was excited to see this transformed into a special place for the wildlife significant to his tribe. “This is a pretty awesome place now to call our home,” he said, as the waters began to rise higher along the estuary channel. “And our salmon to call their home, and our lamprey.” A trending push to reclaiming the land and the waters - The CLUSI is one of several Pacific Northwestern tribes that have reclaimed and restored coastal areas since the beginning of the millennium. In 2015, a levee breach was carried out by the Tulalip Tribes of Washington State, assisted by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the City of Marysville, among others. Named the Qwuloolt Estuary, the breach connected 354 acres of historic wetlands to the Salish Sea, which also created more favorable passage and conditions for salmon. And at Similk Bay on the south side of Fidalgo Island in northern Washington state, a habitat restoration project is in the works that could help reverse the trend for chinook salmon, which are listed as an endangered species. The Swinomish Tribe and the Skagit River System Cooperative are collaborating on a 17-acre parcel of saltwater marsh habitat for juvenile chinook, namely a pocket estuary coordinators say will help the fish rebound. At last check, the project is expected to wrap up this summer. Mizu Burruss of the Siuslaw Watershed Council said partnerships between tribes and nonprofit organizations like hers are essential as resources and bandwidth can be tight for just a lone group to tackle. “They make them richer, better, more complex and diverse projects,” said Burruss. “When we’re talking about ecosystem restoration, that’s what we want.” Closing ceremony through canoe - With the Siuslaw Estuary steadily filling up with river water, Chief Barrett made his way back to Florence. There, he joined the CLUSI tribal council and other officials at the Port of Siuslaw, and boarded “Lottie”, a 32.5-foot cedar canoe. With oars at the ready, the dozen-person crew launched into the dark green waters of the Siuslaw River, and paddled roughly four miles eastwards towards the newly-opened channel of haich ikt’at’uu. Several seals and a sea lion were spotted on the way, and a small armada of kayakers joined the canoeists in the final leg of the journey. The image could not have been more iconic of the traditional and modern worlds: the dugout canoe with its crew wearing woven basket-hats approaching a restored space still flanked by dump trucks and excavators, while several drones hovered above. Some people in the craft sang, as Chief Barrett and others threw tule seeds and tobacco into the estuary. Jesse Beers, CLUSI’s cultural stewardship manager, carefully placed a woven grass mat bearing the remains of a salmon into the current, which swept it away towards the newly-formed habitat. “We came in and did a protocol ceremony,” said Beers, after the canoe docked. “When we were in the channel, it almost brought tears to my eyes.” He said the salmon remains were to let the Salmon People know that this was a “good place” to come again, to “fatten up and be healthy.” Beers said as the increasingly salty water flows in from the ocean, there’ll be less invasives and briars to contend with, and more cattail and tule growing across the restored space. “Just seeing the breach actually happen after this long, it’s just an amazing experience.” One last piece remains: a canoe landing which wasn’t installed yet by the time of the levee breach. The landing was suggested by CLUSI youth, who wanted cultural access to the area to interact and learn with the estuary’s environment. Organizers expect the canoe landing to be done sometime in July.

Clatsop & Wasco Counties Added to Federal Disaster Declaration
OR Dept. of Emergency Management release - The Oregon Department of Emergency Management (OEM) announced today that Clatsop and Wasco counties have been officially added to the federal major disaster declaration for the December 15–21, 2025 flooding and severe storms, DR-4907-OR. The two counties were not included in the initial declaration issued in April, but additional documentation and continued coordination by county emergency managers and OEM staff resulted in their successful inclusion. The expanded declaration now authorizes federal Public Assistance funding for eleven counties impacted by the December atmospheric river event: Clackamas, Hood River, Lane, Lincoln, Linn, Polk, Tillamook, Union, Yamhill, and now Clatsop and Wasco. Public Assistance supports eligible costs related to damaged roads and bridges, debris removal, utility impacts, and other public infrastructure losses. “OEM appreciates the diligent work of our partners in Clatsop and Wasco counties,” said OEM Director Erin McMahon. “Gathering the additional documentation needed after the initial assessment window required a lot of effort, and their persistence ensured their communities will receive the federal support they need to recover.” Record rainfall and high winds during the December storms caused widespread flooding, landslides, and mudslides across multiple regions of the state. At the peak of the event, more than 300,000 Oregonians experienced power outages and several major transportation routes were temporarily closed. A joint preliminary damage assessment documented more than $15.4 million in eligible public infrastructure losses statewide. With today’s announcement, OEM will begin the next steps to support Clatsop and Wasco counties through the Public Assistance application process. OEM staff will work directly with local jurisdictions on documentation requirements, timelines, and available federal resources. Oregon’s request for Hazard Mitigation Grant Program funding—intended to support long?term projects that reduce future disaster risk—remains under federal review. OEM remains committed to assisting local governments throughout recovery and to advocating for resources that strengthen Oregon’s resilience to future disasters. More information about disaster recovery efforts and emergency preparedness resources is available at Oregon.gov/OEM.

Sentenced to Federal Prison, Coos Co. Male
EUGENE, Ore.—A Coos County, Oregon, man was sentenced to federal prison Wednesday for distributing thousands of images and videos of the sexual exploitation of minors, announced U.S. Attorney Scott E. Bradford for the District of Oregon. Ryan Scott Groce, 41, was sentenced to 98 months in federal prison and 5 years of supervised release. Restitution will be determined at a later date. “Today's sentence sends a clear message: those who exploit children will face significant consequences,” said U.S. Attorney Scott E. Bradford. “Protecting children and pursuing justice for victims remain among the highest priorities of this office, and we will continue to use every available resource to combat child exploitation and abuse.” “The volume of files distributed by Mr. Groce is staggering,” said HSI Seattle acting Special Agent in Charge April Miller. “The number of victims—many of whom remain unidentified—is deeply troubling. HSI remains committed to leading the global fight against child exploitation and will continue to investigate crimes targeting our most vulnerable population – our children.” According to court documents, from November 15, 2023, through November 11, 2024, Groce distributed at least 15,000 files of child sexual abuse material (CSAM) online. Investigators searched Groce’s cell phone and found file-sharing software actively downloading and uploading CSAM. Groce’s cell phone also contained over 1000 videos of CSAM. On Aug. 21, 2025, Groce was charged by information with one count of distribution of child pornography. On Sept. 12, 2025, Groce pleaded guilty. Homeland Security Investigations investigated the case. Assistant U.S. Attorney Jeffrey Sweet prosecuted the case. Anyone who has information about the physical or online exploitation of children is encouraged to contact HSI at (866) 347-2423 or submit a tip online at report.cybertip.org. Federal law defines child pornography as any visual depiction of sexually explicit conduct involving a minor. It is important to remember child sexual abuse material depicts actual crimes being committed against children. Not only do these images and videos document the victims’ exploitation and abuse, but when shared across the internet, re-victimize and re-traumatize the child victims each time their abuse is viewed. To learn more, please visit the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children at www.missingkids.org. This case was brought in collaboration with Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse, launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice. Led by the U.S. Attorneys’ Offices and the DOJ’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who exploit children, as well as identify and rescue victims.

From 2016 to 2021, he worked at The Adcom Group, a marketing agency in Cleveland, Ohio, as senior vice president for marketing strategy and president of brand and market insights. Griffin also held leadership roles in two NFL franchises, serving as vice president of marketing, media and fan experience for the Cleveland Browns from 2013 to 2016 and the Seattle Seahawks director of fan development and community relations from 2004 to 2013. Murthy announced Griffin’s appointment Thursday following a national search that began in April after OSU Vice President and Director of Intercollegiate Athletics Scott Barnes announced his retirement effective Aug. 31, 2026. With Griffin’s appointment and immediate transition, Barnes’ retirement date is now July 5. Barnes has been OSU’s athletic director since February 2017 and, as planned, will continue to serve as a senior advisor for athletics through Aug. 31, 2027. Griffin’s Oregon State appointment aligns with a new era for Oregon State Athletics as part of the new Pac-12 Conference that officially launches July 1. Coaching changes in two of OSU’s major revenue-generating sports also recently occurred. Oregon State hired new football Head Coach JaMarcus Shephard in November and new men’s basketball Head Coach Justin Joyner in March. “Joining Oregon State University as vice president and director of intercollegiate athletics is a pinnacle moment for me, and I am profoundly grateful to President Murthy for this opportunity to lead,” Griffin said. “The pride of Beaver Nation is legendary. My immediate priority is to support our student-athletes at the highest level, empower our incredible coaching staff and engage with the passionate fans and partners who fuel our success. Together, we will honor the proud legacy of Oregon State while aggressively charting a bold path forward." In May, Griffin was named one of the Top 100 Rising Athletic Directors/Future Athletics Directors by Silver Waves Media. The list highlights emerging assistant, associate and deputy athletic directors who are poised to lead top-tier collegiate and professional programs. These professionals are recognized for their vision, innovation, revenue generation and impact on student-athlete success. As part of his Ohio State responsibilities, Griffin also oversees the university’s trademark and licensing program. In January, Ohio State extended its 15-year partnership with Learfield, a leading college athletics media and technology company. Ohio State Sports Properties stands among the nation’s top organizations in sponsorship revenue with prominent brand partners spanning the country, according to the news release announcing the extension. The partnership also includes a full-service name, image and likeness initiative to support Ohio State student-athletes.
