The casino's sprinklers are consistently keeping both the grass and the parking-lots wet with impressive volumes of water. But it's other people who should work harder to reduce waste. Got it.
I notice that the school district is watering the playing field on Hendrickson seems I don't remember that from years past. Oh, the developers of John Wayne Marina were told that Sequim was "water rich". With all the homes being built in Carlsborg and the development on South 7th and continued development in other areas like Lavender Meadows and then single lot developments all over the county, and pipe the irrigation lines then the aquifers suffer! In what year will the Sequim area run dry? and who will run dry first? Hey farm people, there are ecology groups that think farms in the USA waste a lot of water- where are they in this mix? Isn't it Whatcom County where the Judge is the water steward? Let's see, if I control the water, I can shut off areas, one by one, people will sell their land cheap or let the mortgage company have it back (think Depression era dust bowl farms) and who eventually owns Sequim?
In the Dust Bowl years of the 1930's, soil from the Midwest farms blew all the way to Washington DC. In 2025 - The East Coast of the USA awaits the "dust" from the Saharan desert storms moving across the Atlantic Ocean. Pick a Square on the Gaming Board - Pick the month and year and the Easternmost state Sequim dust can settle down in and call home. (Assume the prevailing westerlies will continue indefinitely?)
Geoff Fox your message is prophetic. Several decades ago I watched a film with the title "Chinatown". The plot involved a scheme to deprive farmers of irrigation water in order to cause bankruptcy so that the farmland could be purchased by "straw buyers" at a reduced price and the develop the property for an enormous profit. I smell corruption.
So often we seem to be late to the party, about CC happenings that Jeff brings to our attention. But this water steward position gives opposition voices a chance to share their concern and be heard before the position is created. Such an opportunity has been handed to us!!
Excellent article Jeff. You answered your own question: "Will this new position regulate everyone equally—or just pile more rules on rural landowners while exempting tribal developments?
Because if recent history is any guide, drought declarations aren’t about weather.
They’re about money, messaging, and selective enforcement."
Democrats LOVE control. Is it narcissism? Do they think they know what's best for the rest of us. Are their heads swollen? Do they get sexual pleasure from the power of controlling us? I believe that's it, and it is fueled by money they siphon off when they're in charge of everything.
We already have water boards, water regulation, water studies, water controls, water taxes, water restoration projects, dams, reservoirs. Why do we need a "Water Steward"????
"Why do we need a Water Steward"???? Because the person picked to hold that title is currently working from Grant Money that is about to expire and is non-renewable. All of the inside dealings that we are witnessing are the products of a "process" that has been quietly taking shape via closed door "public meetings", covert Zoom, private coversations, and laundering taxpayer money. Unless one is a theorist, pursuing extraordinary thinking and concepts, one gets left in the dark where the lightswitch has been moved from where it has been traditionally located. People speak of "thinking outside the box", yet have no idea of the maze and convoluted processes that have been set up just prior to the egress, being trapped inside the box. If one cannot think like a criminal, the chances of apprehending or bringing them to justice is slim to non-existent. The "Water Steward" is a ruse, creating a career for a "slacker" college graduate who cannot find a job in their "major", Liberal Arts. Deception requires a degree, it is an "art".
Timothy Weller I enjoyed the thought process involved in your missive. In the fourth sentence the subject of theory was mentioned. IMO every theory depends upon a hypothesis. The hypothesis depends upon an original premise which is the result of data. If the data is contaminated the theory does not fulfill any objective measurement or scientific rigor. When important civil servants believe that their cause is ethereal inside their conscious minds why wouldn't their conscious require any means necessary?
LOL I was a slacker until the college fund became insolvent. I never linked a college education to employment I wanted to meet girls. The best job I ever possessed was a union job at a railroad company and I was only 18. I regret wasting my parent's savings on the higher education but I did enjoy reading about Freud and Jung in addition to learning about the third art period in Greece.
No One Important I share your opinion about sexual lust and narcissism. I believe that those two factors explain most of our current problems. They are hidden inside the subconscious so that the conscious mind is not aware of the subterfuge. This is why clarity on any issue is replaced with "good intentions". I tell my fiance constantly that the greatest threat to any advanced civilization is not cause by evil but alleged "good intentions". In college my favorite professor said the he feared the influence of that class of humans far more than any common criminal.
It's a real shame that we don't have a news organization in town, or in the County, that informs people about how groups like the Tribe and self-serving water districts are screwing land owners who aren't connected. Thank you, Jeff, for keeping us informed!
Uni-verse-ity...(one voice) forever ingrained in the minds of the willing-chosen ones in academia! It's not only CIA who recruits and mind-controls /activates 'students'!
Academia was captured by Rockefellers in the early 1900's
Not everyone was captured of course...some made it through relatively untouched by the corruption...kind of like the 'Jibby-jab' crowd!
Don't you wonder why only 'some' people were killed or disabled or seriously affected by the 'jabs'?
'They' are not stupid...just psychopathic and genocidal/omnicidal!
By taking us out gradually, by many vectors, we hardly know what is happening!?
I wish we could change the course of what is happening but it looks like acceptance, as well as whatever we are individually and collectively willing to do is the order of the day.
If you don't believe in Higher Powers of Light, now might be a good time to investigate!
I'm a life-time agnostic non-believer but it sure looks like 'prophecy' is playing out!😊
Lol, I remember catching hell about 7-8 years ago when I was an editor at the PDN because I removed references to Sonny Sixkiller as “famous” in press releases from the JKT. I had never heard of the guy.
Now you know, and they will never let you forget the face of JKT. I commend whoever came up with the marketing genius of Sonny Sixkiller; the principals are all living well off earned values of Taxpayer Citizens, with a bright future for the time being. The tide will continue to change as it has since "time immemorial." The best revenge is a good life.
The days of yester-year are fondly remembered by most all of us. Honoring those before us, their practices and accomplishments is respectful. The past aside, tribal descendants of today no longer weave baskets and fishing nets. Was Sonny Sixkiller good with a bow and arrow or was it a football ? Does he paddle the Salish seas in a dug out canoe to spread the ancestral gospel or is it lights, cameras, action ? Of all the heritages, histories and forefathers in this land of equality only a precious few are deemed to "matter". Taking a pro-rata view of our Federal teats, those claiming sovereignty are latched onto a disproportionate number of them. The term native American is miss-used, but if you lay claim to the term, yet get never ending hand outs and advantages. Why pay the tribes to save our water when we should be paying them for saving the mountains that hold the water; or should we be paying them at all ?
In Arizona in 2023, the areas around Phoenix in Maricopa County halted new housing construction that relies on groundwater after a report from the Arizona Department of Water Resources stated that Arizona's growing population will outgrow its drought-stricken water supply if action isn't taken. So don't think a "water steward" cannot have tremendous power.
Tremendous power is what backers of this added layer of bureaucracy of water czar are after. The stench coming from mouths of many of the CRC is that of disinformation and scare tactics to influence votes om ballot measures. Maybe a BS detector should be installed in the board room. Oh we already have one, when their lips are moving :)
There seems to be plenty of water for another 20-30,000 here at least...we'll be drinking recycled sewage water like LA...I still remember my disgust the first time I drank public water there 50 years ago!🤢
If we are such a drought situation, why were so many homes approved! Where is the water coming from? Is this going to be even more of a drought situation for us who do live in the rural areas?
Last line of that last video: "The 7 Cedars Casino and the Cedars at Dungeness, it's all fun and games."
How's that saying go, it's all fun and games until someone loses an eye? In this case and every other case involving the tribe it's the public being gouged.
What's wrong with how the state is handling water issues? Why does our county need a position no other county has? WA state has been addressing water for a long time and has dedicated a fat RCW to it. I urge everyone to look it over, dig into subchapters and ask yourself if the CC water steward is overlap?
For some additional reading and information to bolster your argument at at state level the MRSC has a good amount of information. For anyone unaware the MRSC is a nonprofit organization that helps local governments across Washington State better serve their communities by providing legal and policy guidance on any topic. MRSC believes the most effective local government is a well-informed one, and as cities, counties, and special purpose districts face rapid changes and significant challenges.
I can only surmise a water steward is about local control of water. But who is in control of us locally...?
Water rules at the state level are ostensibly created by the elected representatives of the people. A water steward of Clallam County is being created to ultimately represent whom?
The NWO is in control, locally, regionally, nationally and globally...it's what they do...all by proxy...many people think they are heroes and philanthropists!😊
I remember the remote control salmon and baffling presentation. Clea Rome had such a red face because she knew the Jimmycomelately counter argument was coming. I delivered it and they all pretended like they could not understand.
If they got rid of channeling it would save water. They (Water conservation district and everybody else. See Jimmycomelately.) already said that in 2004. But the re-channeling serves the purpose of taking property. So in 2004 that same year the same bunch of "experts" decided every other river needed re-channeling. They are liars every last one of them. Lear could not retire fast enough. Hals and Randy Johnson of Jamestown need to be shown the door.
In four years of service for the EPA. Casey Sixkiller never responded to one letter, email or phone call. It is he and others that my 1 grand a week to play hide and seek sound bite is based upon.
The have 22 different policy positions on the same subject. They jump from one foot to the other 22 times and play hide and seek for a grand a week. Casey is and has been 2 grand a week...to play token figurehead.
I can't emphasize the Jimmycomelately restoration project enough. The project received millions in federal grant funding to "restore" the Jimmycomelately watershed, , floodplain, salmon and estuary restoration to its historic state.
The water conservation district hired an engineer to draw it up. Randy Johnson was the Jamestown tribal expert, and there was one other expert. They submitted three designs. They argued on paper the reason for the designs. A design and reasoning was chosen. The end product was not "historic" and was never located in its current river channel. In the Jimmycomelately "science' hotel logs in the meandering zones cause more " bed scour" than what they are worth. They may hide from predators but its the water level that really help them more than the shade of logs. For the Jimmycomelately "science" they chose not to do hotel logs because of the threat of re-channeling and bed scour during the storms. The Tribe was all over that plan. For obvious reasons, the Water conservation district at the time agreed and the rest of the league went along because it had to be "historic' restoration..
Now of course 24 years later the new guard of experts wants to change the science because the water Nazi/ riparian crowd with the influential landscape industry moguls wants hotel logs scattered from the headwaters to the mouth. They want to make money while the split tributaries that could go anywhere gets them control of land. They take pictures with just about everybody but Cisco Morris with all of them going Oh-la-la. But.... Wait for the next storm. watch how many of those logs end up on the beach. Everyone of those logs scoured a salmon bed on its way there. This new science is bad, and is based on the want to profit and the lust to control. But they don't want to change the Jimmycomelately science and start re-channeling the Jimmycomelately after they do the "new science". Its the worst and most evil thing being done in my region at this time.
The Jimmycomelately hasn't moved in 25 years. It has been engineered to do what they could not do for Mr. McLaughlin when he owned the property where the longhouse is, or anyone else on a river for that matter. Engineer the river to protect the property owner from the river... This is how they take property and then built a non historic locations protected by their altered "science" when they occupy it. This is the beginning of the jumping from one foot to the other. None of them will even talk about it. They hate having to explain it and to them the "bad relationship" justifies it all.
The public needs to demand consistent river management policy
The casino's sprinklers are consistently keeping both the grass and the parking-lots wet with impressive volumes of water. But it's other people who should work harder to reduce waste. Got it.

John Worthington for Clallam County water steward. No BS, just the facts.
