by: FILE PHOTO - The Scappoose Automobilia Quick Lube and Car Wash paid $14,400 in DEQ penalties Feb. 27 for dumping more than 6,500 gallons of a water and oil mix into a storm drain in 2012.

The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality on Feb. 6 fined a Scappoose business owner and a plumber a total $30,400 for polluting a nearby creek, according to a March 3 press release from the agency.

Automobilia Quick Lube and Car Wash, and Patrick Sleven, of the plumbing company Plumb Crazy, were convicted in January on water pollution charges after pumping a mixture of motor oil and water into Jackson Creek in October 2012. Jackson Creek ultimately flows to the Columbia River.

Plumb Crazy and Automobilia pumped more than 6,500 gallons of the the oil-and-water mix into a storm drain, which then flowed into Jackson Creek, according to DEQ. The incident created an oily sheen on the creek, which leads to the Columbia Slough.

DEQ issued a $16,000 penalty to Slevin for releasing oil into state waters and a $14,400 penalty to Automobilia for the same violation. DEQ took into account Automobilia's effort to pay for subsequent cleanup work at the site in issuing its fine.

The violation occurred when the basement of the express lube facility filled with an oil-and-water mix after a sump pump failed. Automobilia hired Slevin and directed its employees and Slevin to pump the mixture directly into a nearby parking lot storm drain using a hose and a larger pump.

All of the approximately 6,560 gallons of the mixture in the basement was pumped into the storm drain and some of the oily water reached Jackson Creek, which was less than a mile from the drain, according to a DEQ press release.

Columbia County also issued Slevin and Richard Day, owner of Automobilia, minimal charges of about $100 each when convicted of their charges. Columbia County District Attorney Steve Atchison said the fines were low as the county understood DEQ would later issue larger fines for cleanup costs.

Slevin’s indictment indicates he violated the law with criminal negligence by “causing waste to be placed in a location where [it was] likely to be carried into the waters of the state.”

Day pleaded guilty to the misdemeanor of failing to report an oil spill, Atchison said, adding that Day negotiated the plea a few weeks prior to Slevin’s Jan. 23 trial.

DEQ highlighted the hazards associated with dumping pollutants in its press release.

“Oil released into creeks, rivers and other water bodies can seriously damage aquatic life and ecosystems, and can reduce the safety of public waters for public use,” the press release stated. “In issuing the penalties to both parties, DEQ noted its concern because both Automobilia Inc. and Slevin intentionally caused the release.”

Automobilia paid its DEQ penalty Feb. 27. Slevin will also have an opportunity to pay or appeal his penalty.

Comfort Construction Hires Illegal ALiens From Mexico St Helens 97051 Report to ICE: Hired Wayne Mayo Instead

 Comfort Construction, owned by an American Named Mark W., has a mexican crew of ( presumed) illegal aliens from Mexico. One has a really long mustache that went out of fashion in China about a hundred years ago, and they all look like mug shots.

I know the full name and address of one of the mexicans and  they are using government programs such as food stamps 

 Given how few jobs there are for Americans who grew up in Columbia County . it is a crime doubly for Mark to be hiring them.

This is why Wayne Mayo tried to get a measure passed , which was passed by the voters, and thrown out by a judge.

St Helens Public LIbrary Gives Free Library Cards to Illegal aliens- Charges Citizens

  The St Helens Public Library, appears to be yet another liberal, pro-amnesty kind of place,.
 As a matter of fact they never have  much of anything but pro illegal information on display.
  Most of the illegal aliens in Columbia County are living in slums in St Helens ,where library cards are free, but anyone living outside has to pay $ 40.00 a year.

 Most of those living outside are not illegal aliens and many are educated, unlike those in the section 8 ghetto, known as St Helens.
 As it turns out , a legal citizen has to pay, while the mexicans get free cards..
 Great isn't it?
 The library also buys lots of Pro-Black diversity books for kids, that are never checked out, because neither whites or mexicans want to read about blacks, so after wasting taxpayer money, they sell the books off for 50 cents.
 Last week, they had a book by Sotomayo, the La Raza bigot appointed by Obama to the Supreme Court , along with an info sheet of her wonderful qualities. 
Latino Bigot Sotomayo and La Raza

 It would be nice if those who oppose amnesty would let the library know they don't want their money spent on promoting Amnesty.

Scappoose Goodwill Fail: Hires A Mexican : Fat Mexican Females tries to Scam Clerks

Seems the illegal aliens with their  Anchor Babies are taking over the Scappoose Goodwill in Columbia County Oregon, to the point where they have now hired a Mexican for the store.
 Nope, not a local boy, just another huge over-fed Mexican.
 I watched a Fat Mexican female with three anchors, try to pull a Mexican trick.
 This is where they go to a garage sale and only pull out a few dollars and try to not pay the full amount.
 A Fat Illegal Mexican woman with a microwave at $40.00 , hands the cashier $28.00 in cash. The cashier ( who should be fired for this)
 smiles warmly and tells her she needs more money.
 A slow motion drama unfolds as the Fat Mexican Puta , digs through every pocket of her purse, slowly adding  to the pile  and each time, doesn't put down enough as  she  looks confused.
 Eventually, (as the line forms around the block, due to this being the only cashier,) she reaches $40.00, only the price is $40.48.
 The cashier beams; mexicans are so sweet , they just don't know how to count.
 Fat Mexican Cow leaves with her Three Anchors to the family  truck- her hideous mexican husband was waiting in the cab.
 He thought the cashier would give her a deal , because she had so many kids and she was so short and foreign.
 The Mexican's Truck is a expensive late model , that no poor person could afford. The plates are Oregon 311 FMM.
 The cashier could have given her a look early on to let the Fat Mexican know her con game wouldn't work, or she could have called for backup as soon as the woman came to the register.
 She waited until there was a line, time to replace her with a Fat Mexican.

Oil Trains Explode St Helens Oregon 97051 at Risk

OIl Trains Explode _ Columbia County at Risk

The thing about Columbia County is the highway is next to the railroads, and any drunk logger could smash into them and explode the trains.
 In addition, the coal companies etc et all, have decided to increase the number of trains with oil , even though most of our cities in this county  have trains running through them.
