Oregon Coastal Communities Suffer Some Damage

Coastal communities as far north as Depoe Bay experienced damage because of larger-than-normal waves caused by the Japan earthquake. Pery Murray, Depoe Bay City Recorder, says a large surge of water pushed up a boat and the dock. When the boat came down, it settled on top of the dock. Murray guesses the dock is a total loss and possibly a big financial hit on the small fishing community. Crews worked quickly to secure other boats and what was left of the dock. No injuries have been reported in the Central Oregon coast area.
