(Depoe Bay, Oregon) – Since December, Oregon s coastline has been getting battered by large waves and massive storms, resulting in unusual degrees of erosion along many beaches. Since January, many sloped foredunes no longer had a slope of any kind, simply a dropoff of some 5 to 10 feet, posing significant dangers.

It s also led to more interesting finds along the beaches as well as disturbing sights.
Major storm action has let up, but there s enough smaller storms kicking up the sands that erosion continues on some Oregon coast bluffs, now resulting in more than a few homes being threatened.

A lack of curbside pickup appears to be one of the obstacles to consumers being able to actually compost their compostable waste. Oregon’s North Lincoln County Sanitary Service is in the process of removing that obstacle: Blue compost bins with brown lids are being distributed to residents over the next two weeks, with curbside pickup scheduled to start on March 1.
So, how will customers know what to put into a compost bin? Well, a simple slogan makes it easy for people to understand: “If it grows, it goes.”
