 resorted to rosy claims instead of hard facts to make the case. If that poor work results in no deal, the county’s agriculture industry and the community will be the losers. Consultants and state officials for months have questioned plans for the Treasure
 Valley Reload Center. They have virtually begged for Malheur County to come up with answers. They have received precious few. They are giving the county one last chance.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
