Umatilla Project Will Be Benefited
Secretary Ballinger supports Oregon receiving its share of federal reclamation funds. The Umatilla project near Hermiston is expected to get close to 3 million dollars within three years and may be extended, with ten equal annual payments for water charges to accelerate reclamation funding. Ballinger favors bond issuance to finance construction, not the scrip system, and weighs central Oregon and Malheur as possible project recipients depending on funds.
