Interesting idea. But Coos Bay like Astoria has a significant bar problem. Even big ships have to pay attention to the the tides. One more hindrance to being competitive with natural harbours like San Francisco and Vancouver.

Yes. Can burn. Need an approved controlled hazardous waste incinerator. Need a temperature of at least 1850°C ! There are facilities, search on EPA. But that's a huge amount of barrels down there. And still counting. And it is extreme

An aside for future or present dad's (and all Parents.) There is so much joy and learning that happens with raising kids, that I think the secret is not fight it, but enjoy it. Almost sounds cliché, but embrace the experience. From the
