The economic report Twin Falls, made by me; Twin Falls, ID has the potential for additional car washes, detailed centers and mobile washing facilities. Twin Falls reservoirs have enough water to do this during the summer for farmers and agricultural industries. Mike Burek recently said that even if this winter will have a snow cover of 20 feet, we will not return to normal levels. American Falls is only 14%. Palisades make up 12%, and Jackson Lake - 65%, but remember that fires also fall into the water. Water in rivers and reservoirs is important for many reasons and understands that 2/3 of all fresh trout from all over the world come from the Magic Valley of South Central Idaho and the Snake River.

above Niagara Falls and is often called the Niagara Falls of the West. If water situations become too bad and not enough snow cover in 03-04. We heard about David McAlind's conversation from the Twin Falls Department of Economic Development.

that he felt comfortable, that the water situation is safe and well suited for business. They are working hard to help diversify industries and attract non-agricultural, cleaner industries. The region is growing all kinds of important food. Sugar beets, potatoes, dairy products, alfalfa, sheep, beef, hay, grain, wine, beans, wheat, barley, sweet corn, grass seed, oats. They need water. It is believed that the proposal is better than what was predicted or scared, and that this summer is more than enough, but in the case of a mild winter, this will be a little sparing.
Water supply contains arsenic, from natural erosion, as well as from previous production of chips, barium, chromium, fluoride and nitrate from excess fertilizer. Currently, these levels are not violated, but NPDES permissions are entering into tougher BMPs and enforcement measures and have resulted in the fact that several companies that process food cannot obtain permits, evaluating future jobs; Glandia Foods, Inc. in gooding.
Local Senators are working on Ethanol to help, and this initiative can be excellent for ID. McDonalds was struck by the economy and the unfavorable PR from this Bull shit lawsuit in Canada that people lose fat from food in Mickey Ds. Recent McDonalds have also called for a reduction in antibiotics, steroids and other growth hormones, which is a bit of a problem for farmers, as now with the “Beef, crazy cow” moratorium in Canada, some of these livestock come from the ID, and also milk and ID - huge dairy state in the southern part. Learn about the importance of the dairy industry in the US and South ID;

In addition, people affected by the economy and fewer people who go to QSR, restaurants Kraft Foods, McCain Foods (125 people laid off), JR Simplot, which closed the potato plant in Heyburn and laid off another 50 people at another processing plant. These companies collect a total of 600 people in the region. Also accused of war in Iraq and mitigation of travel. Paper is also a big user of water, and Boise Cascade had other problems with economic problems. Why dairy products last year increased by 6-10%? Can this increase in Starbucks (6000 plus places), as well as cream and milk in Frappachinos, using milk? Yes, there are some. In addition, because of concern, the New Mexico state law regarding minnows and the Rio Grande and Gerona reservoir, such a problem with low water in Idaho will be the same as the problems of Sarbane Oxley in the corporate world, it would be disastrous for Agriculture in South Central Idaho. But everything was good and had a net profit even with bad news. Dell hired 700 people in nine months in Twin Falls. Also the rental was Home Depot. We talked to a fiber optic multiplex line installer who seemed unable to find work in his profession, and therefore Home Depot has a lower job at $ 12.00 per hour.
Loss of brain power is no doubt, but certainly enough to live with the cost of living in Twin Falls, which is low due to the price of electricity and water, is really inexpensive. Twin Falls, Jerome and Gooding had a significant increase in housing construction. One thing that can hurt areas is a step to try and get older people out of their cars. Older people are very concerned about the loss of licensing their drivers, it can be a traumatic experience, competing with a lost loved one, which means that their freedom is gone, some are more likely just to die, it is as serious as I discussed with many experienced older people. They will not move to areas of the Gooding golf course if this continues. But the area is growing. Some of the surrounding cities do not flow around. Burley had some recent “Crazy Days” and Jet Boat Races, which is a good tourist attraction for helping locals, non-profit organizations and retailers. In general, we saw a lot of good; JSU-Idaho State University introduces a medical center for 50 thousand dollars. Which will find a lot of people. The solo cup was occupied by 68 more people after 100 people were postponed at the beginning of the year. West Farm added 27 people. On Monday, Davisco hired 10 workers. Hamilton Manufacturing employs 30 additional workers, but can there be a problem with power if prices go up?
Teton Wireless configures satellite Wi-Fi networks for high-speed Internet networks with points in the area to help increase the number of companies in the clean industry in the area. Kodiak Northwest has a new innovation for snow removal. And we found a lot of interesting, like black manufacturers of micro niches, such as; Golf Swing updates, Spider-cultivator, Beet pulp Feed for livestock, Plastic cottage cutlets, Yo-Yos (seriously, what they do), Dome awnings for the house, Fish pumps, Basque smoked Chorizo Sausage (and this too good) Foam boxes for fish, bale twine, etc. Thus, there are some strong niches that help in this area. In the seafood industry there was a bit of discounting due to the slowdown in restaurants, but sushi was not more fresh laTely. This has damaged the fresh trout industry, trout is found in almost all the rivers and lakes in the ID, as well as in those that process fish in the area. The local chamber of commerce in Twin Falls did a great job at its recent win-win fair in August night, where they sold at the Jeep auction, as they profiled local businesses. The Chamber takes care of local small businesses. Alamlgated Sugar buys more than 129,000 pounds. S and G Produce - this is the construction of warehouses and expansion, more than 10% of the world's sugar comes from the South ID. Sugar beet grows very well in ID, better than anywhere. Gooding also participates in non-commercial community efforts with events such as the huge “Spuds festivals”. Wendell and Jerome had a significant increase in I-84 than cities like Buhl, Filer, Castleford, Hagerman.
One of the problems associated with the region is the taxes on beef imports by the Japanese, and everything can become tough and they worry about Mad cows when it comes to the US. We, Japan, want to bring it down now and maybe increase the tariffs on what they sell. Meanwhile, a lot of debate on WTO issues on genetically modified crops. Super Corn is a good deal for the whole world. These problems with genetically modified foods and possibly changing wild weeds into killer weeds are not a good discussion, because we are talking about corn, not about the mountain plants of Sun Flowers, Pumpkins, Squash, Blue Berries, Cranberry, which is grown near local plants. covers. We are not talking about rice. They still grow all over the world. And we have already modified yields of all types by crossing, the same as several generations. Hell, we also modify people with our own Melting Pot. Mixing Asian, Hispanic and Middle Eastern in Los Angeles? What difference does Arthur S Clarke predict in his book "3001", we will all look pretty Asian, which is probably true, because this is the case with 3.5 billion Chinese? The EU and 15 countries are developing criteria, and probably where people or consumers have a choice, and we see what they buy? Guaranteed genetically modified win, people like fresh vegetables and fruits. These problems put things on South ID pending and see the full stop and cause problems with capitalization.
Even in this area, Twin Falls had a net profit in non-agricultural jobs. 3,750 people returned to work, and 3,440 lost their jobs in 2003, net profit was 210. This is a slow move, but everything goes up. The increase is mainly due to growth and construction, most of which are box stores in Twin Falls and new residential developments in Jerome and Gooding. In Pocatello, the steel plant laid off 40 people, and we see it through the Northwest; Steel plant is closed in OR.
We notice good repairs in the city center on the main street in Twin Falls. On the "Messer Block" they received an award for their dedication to historical preservation. As you know, we are pleased to see how the center's districts enliven and return people to the community and a place to talk, and the attitude of meetings in their hometown seems to be done in conversations with local residents and, therefore, more power for people who are more intelligent and less linear decision making, as in the suburbs.
There is a bit of a drug problem that ranges from 18 to 40 years old and is associated with Crystal Meth. But they seem to be coping with the new drug court program to get people to give up their attachments, which seem to be working and returning people to work. A pretty good success rate and better than prisons, which is also a big employer outside of the Boise area. 86% of people in this program, where between 21-40 and there were substance abuse with Meth. Others include Weed, LSD, Heroin, Mushrooms, Cocaine, Ecstasy and three times drunk drivers. One person interviewed by a local newspaper said that he had construction work and was back on the right track. Downtown Twin Falls is a bummer to navigate if you're new to the area, because if you're looking for a place on Second and Second Street, can it be one of the seven corners? Uch. Even the older locals laughed when the city council wanted therefore to change all the names after the founding fathers of the city and the current leadership of the city? Typical. In any case, this is a difficult transaction, fortunately, the diagonal streets are not abundant. Twin Falls has 64,000 people, Jerome 18,400, Gooding 14,000. ,
Many cities, such as Burley, Burle and others in the area, have zero or negative growth rates. Twin Falls 1.9%, Jerome 1%, Gooding is hard to say, guessing 1.6%. The work in this area seems to be Retail, Services, Farm and Ag, and then Professional in that order. White people make up 89%, and the population is slightly older than in Namp or Boise, and more like Lewiston and Pocatello; 45-65 age groups make up 20.9% of the population. We also found Carl car wash supplies in Idaho Falls an excellent provider for assistance and a Landa steam cleaner.
As for tourism, Falls is worth seeing and attracting about 530,000 visitors to stay for a day and spend money every year. The main employers we found were Sugar, with 425 people and growing (literally), Circle A Construction 325, products Clear Springs 430, Dell 700, Independent Meat 216, Glandia Foods 430, Jerome Cheese 150, Lamb Weston 850, Magic Valley Medical Center 1115, Seastrom Manufacturing 170, Seneca Foods 200, Spears 275, Solo Cup 115. There is an employment base in this area to lead a strong middle class, as this economy continues to grow until recovery and strong recovery of the pound.
