ODFW Commercial Dungeness Crab Fishery Update
ODFW release - 1. Recruitment opening for the ODCAC - The ODCAC serves as an advisory body to ODFW on ocean commercial crab policy issues. Input from this group helps the department address ongoing and new management issues, as well as season opening decisions. ODFW strives for membership that represents the diversity of the ocean commercial industry, including buyers, harvesters, and industry groups with a range of business plans, vessel sizes, pot tiers, and home ports. To maintain this balance, ODFW is seeking to add representatives from each of the following ports: Garibaldi, Port Orford, and Brookings. Member expectations: Members are expected to represent perspectives of industry members who are similarly situated, not limited to their own viewpoint. This means reaching out to contacts in their port, community, or professional network to get broader input on topics under discussion and sharing that with the committee. Members are expected to be courteous, professional, and respectful towards all ODCAC meeting attendees. Active ODCAC members are expected to attend and contribute to the majority of meetings, held throughout the season opening decision process, with additional meetings as needed. Conference call options are available for all meetings, so that in-person attendance is not required. Meetings are open to the public. Priority is given to discussion with members, with a brief opportunity for public input at the end of each meeting, if time allows. Application and appointment: An application form is available at: https://forms.gle/5adJ79Z5gpdVKcxS7. If interested in applying, please complete this form no later than October 25, 2026. For application assistance or to request a paper form, please contact ODFW using the information below. In selecting a member, ODFW will consider the submitted information, relevant expertise or past engagement in commercial crab policy issues, and how an applicant aligns with the attributes that ODFW is seeking to represent. ODFW may also consider licensing, landing, enforcement, and other relevant information. ODFW plans to announce appointments by the end of October. 2. Upcoming voluntary electronic logbook training opportunities: Starting February 1, 2027, all vessels participating in Oregon’s ocean commercial crab fishery are required to have a functioning electronic monitoring (EM) system that automatically records vessel location and the location of individual pots using hydraulic pressure sensor readings. ODFW will make an electronic logbook that integrates with EM available for voluntary use by December 1, 2026. The electronic logbook will improve the quality, speed, and usability of data received by ODFW, while lessening the recordkeeping burden for fishery participants. Those who choose not to use the electronic logbook application will be required to maintain a paper logbook. The application developer, Harbor Light Software, and ODFW will hold four training sessions for those that are interested in learning about the electronic logbook application. Trainers will provide a demonstration of how to use the logbook application. For those unable to attend training sessions in person, a recording will be posted on the EM webpage after the training session. Training session times and locations: Newport, Monday, October 26th – 1-4:30pm, Guin Library Seminar Room, 2030 SE Marine Science Dr., Newport, OR 97365; Astoria, Tuesday, October 27th – 11:30am-2:30pm, Astoria Public Library, 450 10th St., Astoria, OR 97103; Brookings, Wednesday, October 28th – 1-4:30pm, Brookings Elks Lodge #1934, 800 Elk Dr., Brookings OR 97415; North Bend, Thursday, October 29th – 1-4:30pm, North Bend Public Library, 1800 Sherman Ave., North Bend, OR 97459.

TTY users can reach ODFW by using the Oregon Telecommunications Relay Service. Please dial 711 and ask to connect to 541-867-4741. To get the most out of the electronic logbook training session, please make sure you have done the following: Set up and activate your VMS unit through your EM system provider. Download the “ODFW Dungeness Crab eLogbook” app from your device's app store. The app icon will look like one of the images below. ODFW Electronic Logbook Application Icons. NOTE: Do not download the version with “EVAL” in the app title or icon. Open the app, press the “+ ACCOUNT” button, and enter your information to create an app account. Press the “CONFIGURE” button and enter vessel and VMS unit information. If you’re unable to set up an app account in advance, assistance will be available at the training. We recommend using a dedicated tablet for the electronic logbook app and not a cell phone. PLEASE NOTE: If using a LIME VMS unit, you must send an email to Aileen Smith at Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission ([email protected]) that states: "I authorize that the data from my LIME unit be shared to the Oregon electronic logbook application."

Drop Box Update from Oregon Secretary of State Tobias Read
OR Secretary of State release - SALEM, OR — Ballots are out and Oregon Secretary of State Tobias Read is updating Oregonians on where and how they can find secure, official ballot drop boxes. "Your vote is your right as an American to hold government accountable. Don’t take any chances: make a plan to get your ballot in on time,” said Secretary Read. “The best way to return your ballot is through a secure, official drop box. There are hundreds of drop boxes conveniently located around the state, and the ballots returned to those boxes ballots are regularly picked up and delivered straight to your local elections official. Now, thanks to the hard work of our staff and your local elections officials, there are even more drop boxes available in Oregon. It is still safe to use the mail, just send it by October 27 – one week before Election Day.” Oregonians can find the drop box nearest them by using the drop box locator at OregonVotes.gov/Dropbox and inputting their address. Please note: you must use the address of a registered Oregon voter for the tool to work. There are more than 300 drop boxes available around the state, with more on the way. Thanks to the emergency funding from the Oregon Legislature, new drop boxes are already in place and accepting ballots. In Coos Co. - Coos County: Charleston Sanitary District, 63365 Boat Basin Rd, Charleston, OR 97420. These locations have already been added to the full list of drop boxes on OregonVotes.gov/Dropbox. The majority are also available in the locator tool on that same page. Newer boxes should be available on the locator tool in the next few days. Installation is currently in progress for several more drop boxes. They will be added to the drop box locator and the public will be notified once they are in place. The Oregon Secretary of State’s office identified these locations based on a study of Oregonians’ current travel times to drop boxes, with the goal of reducing that time for as many Oregonians as possible. The office also considered factors like each county’s ability to get a drop box set up in the limited time before Election Day. The Oregon Secretary of State’s office is advising any Oregonian who has not yet received their ballot to contact their county elections office. Contact information for county elections offices can be found at OregonVotes.gov/Counties. Oregonians can sign up to track their ballots, from when they are sent to when they are accepted for counting, at OregonVotes.gov/Track.

Oregon Secretary of State Alerted that Civil Rights Division of U.S. Department of Justice Will Deploy Election Monitors to Multnomah County
Secretary Read is reminding all election observers to follow the law - SALEM, OR — The Oregon Secretary of State’s office was informed by the Civil Rights Division of the U.S. Department of Justice that the agency would deploy election monitors to Multnomah County on Election Day. "Oregon’s elections are secure, accurate, and fair, and we always welcome observers to watch our American election process unfold," Oregon Secretary of State Tobias Read said. "But let’s be clear: it is not legal for these observers or anyone else to interfere with Oregon's elections – even the Department of Justice. We are prepared. We will follow the law, and we will make sure the Department of Justice does the same." Secretary Read is encouraging all individuals who intend to observe the election process to know the rules. They will be strictly enforced. Multnomah County and other counties have clear rules to allow observers while protecting the integrity of the election. These rules prohibit observers from: Talking to election workers. Interfering with conversations between election workers and voters. Taking photos or videos of sensitive voter information. Handling any ballots or official election materials. Justice Department election monitors have no special authority simply because they are Justice Department employees. They are allowed to observe election activities, document potential violations of federal voting laws, and raise concerns with election officials, but have no authority over election administration. Justice Department election monitors also do not have independent authority to enter restricted election facilities, inspect voting equipment, handle ballots, or demand access to election records. For decades, the Justice Department has deployed election monitors to ensure voters were protected from racial discrimination or intimidation. However, concerns about federal monitors were sparked nationwide after two Justice Department monitors displayed “irregular” and “a bit aggressive” behavior while monitoring poll workers during Wyoming’s Aug. 18 primary election. The monitors reportedly sought to interview voters inside polling places, obtain poll-worker training materials, and examine voting equipment and tabulators. The Secretary of State’s office will continue to coordinate closely with county elections officials to ensure Oregon once again has a free and fair vote-by-mail election.

OR Fire Marshal Mobilizes Hazmat Team to Newport
OR State Fire Marshal release - SALEM, Ore. – The Oregon State Fire Marshal has mobilized several resources to help first responders, including a hazmat team, to a large fire at Pacific Seafood in Newport. The fire was first reported on Sunday morning. State Hazmat Team 05, Linn-Benton, responded because of the presence of anhydrous ammonia, used in refrigeration, at the facility.

Trafficking Lion Teeth, Tiger Pelt & Rhino Horn
EUGENE, Ore.— Linh Luu and Kevin Le, a husband and wife from Anaheim, California, pleaded guilty in federal court in Eugene, Oregon, to violating the Lacey Act. The court sentenced them to three years’ probation and a $10,000 fine each for their roles in trafficking wildlife between Oregon and Vietnam. According to court documents and statements made in court, Luu and Le admitted that between September 2019 and May 2021, they processed $51,100 in payments to help an individual in Vietnam illegally move wildlife items to and from Oregon. The trafficked items included American black bear gallbladders and cougar bones, which were shipped to Vietnam; and lion teeth, segments of black rhinoceros and white rhinoceros horns, and a tiger pelt, all of which were imported into Oregon. According to court documents, Luu and Le met an undercover federal agent in December 2020 in a parking lot. They accepted $12,000 in cash as a down payment for part of a rhino horn and discussed methods to avoid U.S. banking regulations designed to detect illicit transactions. They later each received nearly $5,000 in electronic payments for the horn segment, which was shipped to Oregon disguised as a household decoration. The sale was discussed as a way to build trust for future, larger deals. “Wildlife trafficking threatens some of the world’s most vulnerable species and fuels criminal networks that profit from their destruction,” said Scott Bradford, U.S. Attorney for the District of Oregon. “This case demonstrates that our office will hold accountable not only the poachers, but also the financial facilitators who keep these markets alive. We are committed to working with our federal and state partners to disrupt these networks and protect endangered wildlife for future generations.” “This investigation clearly illustrates that wildlife trafficking isn’t a victimless, white?collar crime. It’s the financial engine behind the slaughter of species like rhinos, tigers, and black bears,” said Doug Ault, Assistant Director, Office of Law Enforcement, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. “Every dollar laundered through wildlife trafficking networks represents real damage that cannot be undone. Poachers take the wildlife, but organizers and financial facilitators make the killing profitable, and the Service and our law enforcement partners will continue pursuing everyone who builds and bankrolls these networks.” All of the wildlife involved in this case is protected under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), a treaty signed by the United States, Vietnam, and 183 other governments to regulate commercial trade in species that are or may become extinct. Trade in listed species is prohibited without a permit, which the defendants did not obtain. Black bears and cougars are native to Oregon and are prized by some for use in traditional Asian medicine. Lions, tigers, and black and white rhinoceroses are also protected under the Endangered Species Act. The Lacey Act, the nation’s oldest wildlife trafficking statute, prohibits, among other things, buying or selling wildlife that was illegally imported or exported. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Office of Law Enforcement investigated the case with assistance from Homeland Security Investigations and the Oregon State Police. The case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney William McLaren and Senior Trial Attorney Ryan Connors of the Environmental Crimes Section of the Justice Department’s Environment and Natural Resources Division, with support from Assistant U.S. Attorney Adam Nate.

SOU FB Last-minute pick seals SOU's 24-17 win against Arizona Christian
SOU release - ASHLAND – Backup defensive back Jackson Buckingham intercepted a pass a yard in front of the goal line with just over a minute to play, locking up Southern Oregon's 24-17 Homecoming victory over Arizona Christian on Saturday at Raider Stadium's Laurel Field. The banged-up Raider offense did enough early to take control and the defense delivered throughout the afternoon in holding the Firestorm to 205 total yards, the lowest total for an opponent this season by a margin of 150. Defensive lineman Bryson Kievit was in the middle of it with 3 ½ tackles for losses. Near the end of the third quarter, SOU was in the red zone with a 21-10 lead when ACU's Tyras Blake took a pick-six 84 yards to get the Firestorm back in the game. Andy Nguyen finished SOU's next drive with a 29-yard field goal to extend the advantage back to seven points, and the defense held up the rest of the way. The Firestorm (0-7 overall, 0-3 Frontier West) got to SOU's 17-yard line but were facing 4th-and-13 when Buckingham, a redshirt-freshman from Salem, made the clinching play. The Raiders (3-5, 2-2) have played five consecutive games decided by seven or fewer points. Their win snapped a seven-game home skid. It was also the 20th in the career of head coach Berk Brown. SOU quarterback Dom Montiel threw for 225 yards, including a 22-yard touchdown pass to Dawson Douglas in the first quarter to give the Raiders an 11-0 head-start after Nguyen opened the scoring with a 31-yard field goal. Jamin Miller – a fourth-string running back starring for the second week in a row with several other Raiders sidelined – rushed 23 times for 82 yards and punched in a two-yard score. Glen Leith-Ross added 44 yards on 10 carries. Douglas made five catches for 49 yards, Sean La Chapelle made grabs of 70 and 21 yards, and Alex Nevarov contributed the first three receptions of his career from the tight-end spot for 47. Kievit, Da'mon Carter and Jojo Czyz led the Raiders with seven tackles apiece. Brandon Dominguez made five with 1 ½ for losses and a sack. The Raiders are on the road next week at No. 11-ranked Carroll (Mont.). Following a bye week, they'll play their regular-season finale at Raider Stadium against top-ranked College of Idaho on Nov. 14.

Fast Start Not Enough as Ducks Fall to Illini
UO release - by: Rob Moseley, Oregon was up 10 late in the first half but Illinois came back to win Saturday afternoon. CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — A first-half lead didn't hold up for the Oregon football team Saturday, as the Ducks lost 21-10 at Illinois. The Ducks drove to a touchdown on the opening possession of the game and led 10-0 late in the first half. But the Illini scored on a 75-yard run with 2:15 left before halftime, then added two more touchdowns in the second half to come away with the win. Oregon fell to 4-3 overall and 2-2 in Big Ten play with the loss. The Ducks played their third straight game without injured quarterback Dante Moore. "Credit to Illinois, thought they were the tougher team today," UO coach Dan Lanning said. "That definitely showed up in the second half. Kind of the tale of two halves. We weren't efficient enough on either side of the ball." Dylan Raiola led the Ducks on an 11-play, 75-yard drive to open the game, capped by a Jordon Davison rushing touchdown. Gage Hurych added a 20-yard field goal with 2:29 left before halftime and Oregon was up, 10-0. But Illinois scored on the next play from scrimmage, a 75-yard touchdown run, and scored again in each of the final two quarters. "We've got to evaluate exactly who we are," Lanning said. "Each person's got to look in their heart and respond, and say exactly what they want to go attack and what they can improve and get better. And that's really where the focus has to be." Raiola finished 27-of-41 passing for 246 yards, Davison ran for 92 yards and Dierre Hill added 83 rushing yards. Dakorien Moore caught nine passes for 70 yards to lead a UO receiving corps depleted by absences. Teitum Tuioti had eight tackles with a career-high 2.5 sacks to lead the UO defense, and he was also the lead blocker on Davison's rushing touchdown as the Ducks continued to look for creative ways to move the ball in the absence of Dante Moore. "I think all things are on the table for us, to make sure that we're the best version of ourselves," Lanning said. "And we're currently not that, that's very clear." The Ducks now return home to close out October with a Halloween game against Northwestern in Autzen Stadium.

Ducks looking for new Offensive Coordinator
UO release - EUGENE, Ore. — Oregon offensive coordinator Drew Mehringer has been relieved of his duties, head coach Dan Lanning announced Sunday morning. "Drew has been a valued member of this staff since 2022, and I am appreciative of everything he's done for Oregon," said Lanning. "He played a tremendous role in what this program has accomplished over the last several seasons. This was a decision I felt was in the best interest of our football program, as I believe a new direction is necessary to move our offense forward. I thank Drew for his efforts and wish him all the best." Mehringer joined the Oregon staff in 2022 as the tight ends coach, and he added co-offensive coordinator duties ahead of the 2025 season.
