fine for oil discharge into storm drain in Corvallis Oregon? Question: my neighbor accidentally spilled oil in the street right next to a storm drain that leads to the Willamette river. we tried as best we could to clean it up, but there is still a giant stain in the street. We were wondering what the fine would be?
Answer:
You would have to ask a local official, some places may or may not have one. Next time you or your friend is playing with oil, keep a bag of sawdust or other various "oil absorbing granules" on hand. Check with your fire department, perhaps they have some or know where to get some.

Is there more web servers in my area other then centurytel.? Drain,Oregon?
Answer:
Drain isn't exactly located close enough to a major metropolitian hub to have the services that you find in them, but you might find services offered out of Cottage Grove that might work for you. I would think that you would be in the AT&T/Cingular/Edge Wireless cell phone tower range with how close the town in to the I-5, so you might check with them for service. On the south coast we have Edge Wireless and they offer an service called mobilemedia/aircard where you can access the Internet with your PC via the cell phones. But the best spot I know of to look for Internet access and web hosting is findanisp.com. They show 41 companies that offer service of some sort in Drain.

Do you have to have a master's plumber's license to operate a drain cleaning service in the state of Oregon or Question: Washington? My dad is considering moving from Texas and he does not have a master's license, not from lack of experience. I'd really like for him to be able to do this. Anyone know the answer to this? The department of labor and licensing websites were a little confusing to someone who doesn't really know what she's looking for.
Answer:
The state of Oregon has a really handy "business wizard" feature on their government pages -- all you need to do is answer a few questions & a list of referrals sources & possible licensing requirements will pop right up.
Here's the link: http://egov.sos.state.or.us/br/pkg_bc1_web_interview.bic_home
On the first page, it'll ask for the type of business activity. The easiest thing to do is to just enter the NAICS for plumbing (scroll to the bottom), which is 238220.
Hope that helps!

Can I prevent cold weather from draining car battery? Question: I recently moved from Florida to Oregon. It is winter here and my some mornings my car doesn't want to start. After not driving it for 3 days I found the battery was completly dead. I replaced the battery in Florida about 5 months ago so it is a new battery. Is there anything I can do to stop the cold weather from draining the battery?
Answer:
The weather doesn't drain your battery, hot or cold. If it's slow to start it may need spark plugs, perhaps an oil change. Have a talk with your mechanic. It is true that batteries in very cold weather (and I'm talking below zero) lost some capacity, but they aren't drained, they just aren't as effective at 20 below as they are at 70.

how can i drain a 87 iroc z28 camaro tank? Question: i got a 87 iroc z28 5.0 liter camaro it's really nice when its clean but it's been sitting in the rain from oregon ( dont u just hate the rain ) and it had a full tank of fuel before it was sitting and a couple of weeks ago i had a guy from les swab came out and try to get it running but it would start going but would then just die but he said to try draining the tank because now it has 3/4 of a tank and it is all gummy and thick and i was wondering if there is any thing i can use to drain the tank so i can get it running or do i need a tune up to get it running? it's been sitting for about 3 - 4 yrs
Answer:
You will have to drop the tank to drain it. There is no drain plug on the fuel tanks anymore. Since this car has been sitting 3 to 4 years, I would recommend replacing anything the fuel touches. Injectors regulators filters and the fuel pump. Once the tank is empty, a radiator shop can "vat" and clean the tank, or you might look into a new tank. A major clean up job on the fuel supply and return lines are needed as well...Good luck

Dial Up in 2008? Yes!? Question: I absolutely, positively, have no more than $16 dollars a month to spend on internet access!! I would like to know my options for dial up in the "rural" area I live in (Bend, Oregon). Where can I buy a modem that works on my computer from 2002 (USB 1.0 only, 1.7 Ghz celeron, etc.)? I am on a fixed income, so don't even mention broadband, DSL, replacing computer, or "getting a better job" (the latter of which causes me to lose Medicaid, resulting in $1000 in medical expenses every month down the drain). My medical condition is uncurable, meaning I am doomed to this income for life! Also, there are no wifi hotspots in this town that actually work!

Water system winterization - Well power concerns? Question: We have a house in Oregon where winters are pretty mild. We leave for the entire winter. When we leave, we open the faucets on the lines that are used for irrigation after we shut off the valve in the pumphouse. This lets them evaporate and drain (as the property has a lot of slope). We then shut off the water valve to the house. We do keep the inside house temperature set to 55 degrees and there really isn't any freeze issue inside the well-insulated house, where we also turn off the Hot Water breaker.
Our well pumps into a 1500 gallon storage tank (underground) and from there, the above-ground pressure pump takes the water and pressurizes the system (with a big accumulator tank...I think that is the correct name).
Last year, we did this without problem and we left the circuit breakers on for both the well and the pressure pump. Now I am questioning whether that was a good idea, as any leak developing inside the system between the well pump in the ground and the valve after the pressure pump could actually become a problem if the circuits remain energized. But before I decide to turn off the two circuit breakers this year, I want to make sure I won't be causing any problems by doing so for the 6 months we'll be gone. Any thoughts?
As far as the heat goes, folks have reported damage to both sheetrock and laminate floors if a house is left with no heat. The house (built in 2001) is well-insulated, so there really isn't much cost to set the thermostat to 55 and leave it there (electric heat pump). Conversely, where we winter is so hot in the summer when we are gone that we have the A/C set to 90 degrees there.
Answer:
Leave them off. There is no good reason to leave an energized well pump to a house that is vacant. The next obvious observation is why leave any heat on at all? For just a little more care and an air compressor you could winterize the whole house and not have to worry about it at all. Just remember the dishwasher. It needs a little antifreeze also.

long term effects for severely shaken babies? Question: i was a premature drug baby (2.5 pounds at birth) at five months old i was still smaller than a healthy newborn, and i was severely shaken by my biological father. my eyes got real screwed up, ive had three surgeries to fix them though one will eventually fail because it is not strong enough, all the muscles and what not that attatch my eyes to my socket were torn when i was shaken. not so cool....
i suffered a subdural hematoma, which nearly killed me, if it werent for my foster family(which is now the only family i know, and are my adoptive parents) i would be dead.my brain was bleeding for about a month and a half before she really noticed soemthing was seriously wrong with me and took me back tot he hospital early, and demanded the doc take a look, took a while but the doctor finally cam in, and i was then rushed three hours away to Doernbeckers childrens hospital in portland, oregon. the doctor there said that the pressure around my brain would ahve killed me within 24-48 hours. i have scars and dents on my head where they drilled four holes to drain and relieve the pressure.
i have some pretty aggravating back problems (abnormality in the middle of my back around where i was held during shaking, rotoscoliosis, and spina bifida_ i know spina bifida is a birth defect, and that scoliosis is usually hereditary, but is there any chance it and the abnormality may have been caused my the trauma to my spine? on the xrays of my back scars are visible on my ribs, and i have a scar on my ribs where my biological fathers thumbnail dug into my skin.
i can not find a single thing on the long term effects shaken babies have. i know i would sure as hell like to know, seeing as i have that to look forward to in my future...
can anyone tell me anything? or lead me in the right direction for some solid information?
i am 20 years old now, and am a lucky one. i do have some memory problems, but other than that i dont know of anything else that is connected with shaken baby syndrome.
i dont know.. i just wish i knew more about what to expect in the years to come..
by the way, i was shaken to the point of becoming unconscious and then thrown back into my crib (as my bio. father confessed) he said that he had shaken me multiple times that day, because i kept crying (pitiful excuse, this should never happen to anyone...)
Answer:
I am very sorry for all that you have gone through. I hope you have received therapy to help you through all of it, it's too much for one to handle all on their own!
Maybe you can get answers at these websites, or by emailing links listed on the pages -

Also, you might see if you can find anything in these books, look for the word prognosis:

http://books.google.com/books?client=firefox-a&um=1&ct=property -revision&q=shaken+baby+syndrome+prognosis&btnG=Search+Books
I t is also possible some of your issues stem from your prematurity. You've been through so much! I hope you can heal.
Good luck in finding the answers you need.
