Description

Six officials with ties to Washington County's sewer agency attended the Hawaii Captive Insurance Council forum on the Big Island in 2023, at a cost of nearly $42,000. All six stayed at the Fairmont Orchid, a 5-star hotel that features a 10,000-square-foot oceanfront pool overlooking Pauoa Bay. Getty Images

New oversight measures are being promised for Washington County’s embattled sewer agency in the wake of an investigation by The Oregonian/OregonLive that uncovered lavish business trips to Hawaii and sky-high food expenses.
