Abstract:
Yakima County, Washington was subject to the extrordinary Washington Wildfire Season of 2020 in which unhealty air (PM2.5) persisted for a 14-day period. This remarkable fire and smoke season began in tandem with the COVID-19 pandemic. SARS-CoV-2 virus, like inhaled particulate matter is known to cause respiratory illness or injury. This study sought to determine through publicly available data whether increased levels of PM2.5 were associated with increased cases of COVID-19. Using a 12-day lag analysis, Pearson product correlations were performed between PM2.5 24-hour averages in Yakima County Washington and daily confirmed cases of COVID-19 for data available on March 1, 2020-October 15, 2020. In addition, total running cases of confirmed COVID-19, daily mortality and total running mortality rates were compared in the lag analyses. All days (PM2.5) in the lag analysis were found to have a statistically significant positive correlation with COVID-19 case counts and total running counts of COVID-19 (p<.001) with correlation coefficients ranging from 0.24-0.28. The total running mortality rates were also significantly associated with daily PM2.5 (p<.001); however, the daily mortality rates were not found to be statistically significantly related to PM2.5. This simple analysis provides preliminary evidence that increased air pollution (PM2.5) is associated with higher rates of confirmed COVID-19 cases. However, further research is required to determine the potentially confounding factors in this relationship.

Abstract:
The Hispanic population is rapidly growing in the U.S. The health issues that challenge this population are often unique. Pregnancy rates among Hispanic teens have remained steady or risen in some areas. Yakima County, Washington has the highest teen pregnancy rate for women aged 18-19 of any county in the state (182.72 per 1000 women compared with 104.32 per 1000 women in Washington). Over half of the births in this age range are to Hispanic teens. For these reasons, Planned Parenthood of Central Washington, with funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, collaborated with Central Washington University to conduct formative research on Hispanic teen pregnancy prevention. This qualitative focus group study revealed perceptions of adolescents and parents of communication patterns, desired content of sexuality education programs, and the provision of sexuality education programming. Understanding these perceptions may be the first step in developing educational programs that have a positive impact on Latina teens.

Abstract:
Hop powdery mildew (HPM) was first observed in commercial hop (Humulus lupulus L.) fields in Washington State on 10 June 1997 near Toppenish in the Yakima Valley. The disease appeared throughout the valley in 1997; by mid-July, scattered fields throughout the Yakima growing area reported HPM. Approximately 2,000 of 30,000 acres in production were not harvested in 1997 due to HPM. The pathogen apparently perennated in buds, and flagshoots originating from infected buds were observed during March and April 1998 at various locations throughout the Yakima Valley. During the 1999 growing season, the majority of hop acreage in Washington State was affected, and most fields planted to susceptible cultivars contained at least one infected plant. HPM was initially discovered in southern Idaho during early July 1998, in two adjacent fields of hops in Canyon County. HPM was found ≈644 km (400 miles) north in another hop-growing region of Idaho, Boundary County, during mid-July 1998. HPM eventually was observed in more than 20 Idaho hop fields. The initial discovery of HPM in Oregon's Willamette Valley was made during late-July 1998, in two neighboring hop fields. By the end of the growing season, HPM was observed in nine commercial fields representing 3.7% of the hop production acreage in Oregon. Affected cultivars include Brewer's Gold, Chinook, Cluster, Columbus/Tomahawk, Eroica, Fuggle, Galena, Golding, Liberty, Olympic, Perle, Symphony, Tettnanger, Willamette, and Zeus. Infected basal leaves of bines had small whitish circular spots on adaxial surfaces. In some cases, blisters preceded direct observation of the fungus. Cones also were infected, appearing stunted and malformed. The pathogen usually was visible on infected cones but sometimes was found only under overlapping bracts. Cleistothecia have not been observed in the field to date. Conidia were transferred to leaf disks (12 mm diameter) excised from greenhouse-grown cv. Galena hop plants. Inoculated leaf disks were incubated on moistened filter paper in glass petri dishes at 20°C with illumination provided for a 12 h day by two cool-white fluorescent bulbs. HPM lesions with chains of unicellular, barrel-shaped conidia (30 to 36 × 15 to 18 μm) were visible within 7 days. The causal agent was identified as Sphaerotheca macularis (Wallr.:Fr.) Lind (synonym S. humuli (DC.) Burrill) on the basis of conidial shape and size as well as host range (1). Reference: (1) D. J. Royle. 1978. Powdery mildew of the hop.

Abstract:
Background: Early sexually transmitted infections (STIs) diagnosis facilitates prompt treatment initiation and contributes to reduced transmission. This study examined the extent to which contextual characteristics such as proximity to screening site, rurality, and neighborhood disadvantage along with demographic variables, may influence treatment seeking behavior among individuals with STIs (i.e., chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis). Methods: Data on 16,075 diagnosed cases of STIs between 2007 and 2018 in Yakima County were obtained from the Washington State Department of Health Database Surveillance System. Multilevel models were applied to explore the associations between contextual and demographic characteristics and two outcomes: (a) not receiving treatment and (b) the number of days to receiving treatment. Results: Contextual risk factors for not receiving treatment or having increased number of days to treatment were living ≥10 miles from the screening site and living in micropolitan, small towns, or rural areas. Older age was a protective factor and being female was a risk for both outcomes. Conclusions: Healthcare providers and facilities should be made aware of demographic and contextual characteristics that can impact treatment seeking behavior among individuals with STIs, especially among youth, females, and rural residents.

Abstract:
AbstractWild codling moth, Cydia pomonella (L.), females were trapped from May through September in the upper (Yakima) and lower (White Swan) Yakima River Basin, WA, using 10 bait traps and 4 and 19 blacklight traps, respectively, for 2 and 5 years in abandoned apple orchards. The average spermatophore count per female at Yakima was 1.08; at White Swan it was 1.76. The spermatophore count was similar in both first (0.97 and 1.79) and second (1.00 and 1.70) generations at both locations. Regression analysis of field data and laboratory tests showed that cool temperatures reduced the number of spermatophores, which reflect reduced mating. There was a high correlation between the number of small spermatophores and females with multiple spermatophores. Usually females with a large spermatophore mated only once. Females usually mated on the 1st day following emergence. Once mated, even females with small spermatophores seldom mated again on subsequent days.

Abstract:
In the United States, many private wells are used as the only source of potable water. These wells, under current federal and state regulations, are neither monitored nor checked for water purity. The purpose of qualitative case study was to gain an understanding about how the documented nitrate contamination problem in the Lower Yakima Valley River Valley is perceived by members of the community and to measure their willingness to engage in collective action for social change. Purposive samples of 6 participants were interviewed using 10 questions derived from the drinking water disparities framework by Balazs and Ray. Additional historical information and data were reviewed. While analyzing interview responses, observations, and documents to understand how the documented nitrate contamination problem, themes and patters emerged and were identified. According to the study results, the community was not actively engaged in any communication regarding the nitrate contamination. Private well owners hold beliefs about the safety of their individual water supply but had no knowledge of the water quality being used by their friends, neighbors, and families This community, if engaged in a collective action to deal with the nitrate contamination problem, could be successful in influencing larger organizations, such as state and federal governmental entities, to work toward nitrate contamination source identification and remediation.

Abstract:
<em>Abstract.</em>—Since 1982, the Columbia River Treaty tribes (Yakama, Nez Perce, Umatilla, and Warm Springs) have proposed the use of hatcheries as a tool to recover naturally spawning populations throughout the Columbia basin. The Yakama Nation is working with the support of other agencies to implement tribal salmon restoration philosophies and proposals in the Yakima River basin. Yakima/Klickitat fishery project biologists estimate that the Cle Elum supplementation project has boosted populations of upper Yakima spring Chinook salmon <em>Oncorhynchus tshawytscha </em>by about 90% in both 2001 and 2002 over what returns would have been without the innovative hatchery. With the benefit of added fish from the Cle Elum supplementation project, the spring Chinook redd count in the Teanaway River in 2002 was more than five times the highest count in recorded history. Yakama Nation efforts to re-establish a sustainable, naturally spawning coho salmon <em>O. kisutch </em>population in the Yakima basin have resulted in adult coho returns that averaged nearly 5,000 fish from 1998 to 2001 (an order of magnitude greater than the prior 10-year average), including an estimated return of more than 1,500 wild/natural coho to the Yakima River basin in 2001. Yakama Nation steelhead <em>O. mykiss </em>kelt reconditioning programs have increased the escapement of steelhead to spawning grounds in the Yakima basin by 2.4% for the 2001–2002 migration and by 7.3% for the 2002–2003 migration. While it is not yet possible to definitively state whether or to what extent the use of hatchery reared fish and/or methods has resulted in these successes without causing other adverse ecological consequences, intensive monitoring and evaluation efforts continue on these projects and formal scientific results will be published as definitive results become available.

Abstract:
The Indian reservation is a place where multiple forms of law-federal, tribal, and state-create both gaps and overlaps of rules and jurisdictions, at times in accord and at times in contest. Analysis of an ethnographic photograph of women from the Yakama Nation in front of a sign marking one of their reservation's internal boundaries reveals how their defense of indigenous law also invokes multiple forms of tribal, state, and federal law. The federal jurisdiction asserted by this sign at a border within the reservation, warning away sport hunters and fishers, is doubled and thereby decentered by the postures, dress, and tools held up by the women. They base their claim to the land ("Do Not Enter") not on state law, but in practices of indigenous law-with its own expressions of property rights and claims to authority-reflected in the elements of the photograph.
