Staffreport REDBLUFF TheTehamaCounty District Attorney's Bureau of In- vestigation conducted a warrant sweep Thursday netting six per- sons wanted for failing to pay child support and not showing up to court in the cases. There were five men and one woman arrested as a result of the investigation and all were placed in custody. They were sent to appear before a commissioner and arrested on civil contempt charges, according to a press re- lease issued Thursday afternoon by the Tehama County District Attorney's Bureau of Investiga- tion.

Entries in the parade, which was put on by the Corning Am- Vets, included various veteran organizations including Veter- ans of Foreign Wars and the Red Bluff Detachment of the Marine Corps League the American Le- gion. Youth organizations such as the Heartshine organiza- tion, Los Molinos 4-H and Or- land FFA participated as well. Representatives from a K-9 or- ganization that helps veterans marched with a German Shep- herd leading the way while the Corning Union High School Car- dinal Marching Band followed behind, leading the Corning High School entourage playing the Armed Force Medley which included the song for each branch of service. Firefighters and engineers from the Corning Volunteer Fire Department and Cal Fire made their way down the street just ahead of a group of veterans in classic cars followed by two tractors decked out in Ameri- can flags. Ron Warner, who has served as Tehama Mayor and a Te- hama County Supervisor, was named the Grand Marshal for the parade. Warner served in the Coast Guard on active duty from 1956-1960 and an additional two years as a reserve. "I was very honored," Warner said of being named grand mar- shal. "They caught me by sur- prise. To be grand marshal at a Veterans Day parade meant a lot to me. A Coast Guard boy made good. The only thing that could have made it better was to have my granddaughter Gerrica who is in the Army Reserves with me. That would have made the day complete." Warner was a Petty Officer Second Class Engineman in the Coast Guard and remembers it fondly including being part of commissioning the last 95 foot patrol boat. "We commissioned it and then we sailed it along with others from Baltimore, Mary- land all the way to San Pedro through the Panama Canal," Warner said. "When we arrived we got orders to go to Hawaii. It was quite a trip taking a patrol boat 2,200 miles." Following the parade, a lun- cheon was held at the Corn- ing Veterans Memorial Hall hosted by the Veterans of For- eign Wars (VFW) with Den- nis Wyman serving as Master VETERANS DAY CORNING HONORS VETERANS WITH PARADE, LUNCHEON JULIEZEEB-DAILYNEWS A veteran returns the salute of the Corning Union High School Marching Band Drum Major Friday as the band makes their way down Solano Street during the Corning Veterans Day Parade. By Heather Hoelscher hhoelscher@redbluffdailynews.com @DN_Heather on Twitter RED BLUFF The Pacific Gas and Electric Co. is set to begin a nine- month voluntary cleanup project in January 2017 to address con- taminated soil left behind by the former manufactured gas plant at 600 Rio St. along the Sacramento River. PG&E Project Manager Bill White presented details of the cleanup project Thursday at the Sacramento River Discovery Cen- ter's Thursday Evening Program. Cleanup of the site will pro- vide long-term protection of pub- lic health and the environment as some by products of the gas mak- ing process were left buried at the site. The property does not present a health risk in its condition, how- ever, the removal of contaminated soil is an important step in future property redevelopment, White said. The intent is to get the site back into productive use for the city and sell it after cleanup is complete. The project will include the removal and off-site disposal of roughly 11,800 cubic yards or about 800 truckloads of shallow soil impacted by the historic gas- making process, White said. That soil will then be transported in covered trucks to a licence dis- posal site, possibly in Anderson. Deeper soil will then be treated by mixing in concrete to stabilize the former plant's impacts, White ENVIRONMENT Cleanupsetatgasplantsitenearriver The former manufactured gas plant in the early 1900s.
