History

Boardman was homesteaded in 1903 by Samuel H. Boardman, [6] the first superintendent of the Oregon State Parks System. [7] Boardman and his wife worked for 13 years to develop irrigation for their land; during those years his wife taught school, and Boardman at times worked on railroad construction projects. The Union Pacific Railroad passed through Boardman, where it had a station. The community was platted in 1916 at about the same time Samuel Boardman went to work for the Oregon State Highway Department and became involved in the development of roadside parks. [6]

The Boardman post office opened in 1916. [6] The city was incorporated in 1921. [1] During construction of the John Day Dam on the Columbia River in the 1960s, the city had to be moved south, further from the water. Lake Umatilla, behind the dam, covered much of the original city. [6]

South of Boardman, the U.S. Army Air Force established a training range in 1941. The Air Force transferred ownership of the range in 1960 to the U.S. Navy and it is now known as the Naval Weapons Systems Training Facility Boardman. The range is largely used by NAS Whidbey Island and the Oregon National Guard. [8]

As of 2013, the six largest employers in Boardman are Lamb Weston (potato products) (370 employees); Oregon Potato Company (125); Portland General Electric (PGE) (113); the Morrow County School District (106), Boardman Foods, (100) and Amazon S3. [15]

The Port of Morrow, Oregon's second-largest port, [16] is adjacent to the city and located on the Columbia Riverfront. The port property also includes two (PGE) gas-fired power plants. [16] PGE also had a coal-fired power plant, the Boardman Coal Plant, which opened in 1980 [17] and shut down in October 2020, marking the closure of the last coal-fired power plant in Oregon after 40 years of service. [18] [19] The Boardman Coal Plant was demolished in 2022. [20] The plant had produced power at a rate of 550 megawatts and was the largest single point of emission of greenhouse gases in Oregon. [21] The Umatilla Chemical Depot, which includes the Umatilla Chemical Agent Disposal Facility, is 10 miles (16 km) east of the city, northwest of the intersection of I-84 and Interstate 82. The Irrigon Fish Hatchery is 7 miles (11 km) east of Boardman. Threemile Canyon Farms is the largest farm located in Boardman.

The Oregonian reported in November 2008 that Amazon was building a large data center at the 9,000-acre (36 km2) Port of Morrow. The data center was to have a dedicated 10-megawatt electrical substation. [22] A website focused on data centers suggested the Boardman site was created in response to the rapid growth of Amazon Web Services; earlier in 2008, Amazon had announced that Amazon S3 was storing 29 billion objects (such as IMDb tables). [23] The Amazon data center at the Port of Morrow began operating in 2011 as one of three Amazon data centers in the region at the time. [24] The project made Boardman the second Oregon city along the Columbia River to host a power-hungry data center for web services; Google already had a similar center in The Dalles. [22] [23] By 2012, Apple had announced plans for a server farm south of The Dalles in Prineville, where Facebook already had a similar farm. Rackspace was said to be considering a data center at the Port of Morrow. [25] According to an August 2018 article in the East Oregonian , Amazon has two data centers in Boardman and one in Umatilla and is proposing to build four more data centers in the region. [26] The three data centers in Boardman and Umatilla correspond to the three availability zones in AWS US-West-2 (Oregon) region.

Since 2007, Alto Ingredients, formerly known as Pacific Ethanol, has operated an ethanol plant in Boardman. [27] It can produce up to 40 million US gallons (150,000,000 L) of ethanol a year from grains. [28] [29] ZeaChem has built a demonstration biorefinery at the Port of Morrow with a capacity of up to 250,000 US gallons (950,000 L) of ethanol a year from wood waste. [30] The company hopes to build a much larger commercial refinery with a capacity of 25 million US gallons (95,000,000 L) annually. [30] [31] However, in April 2013, less than a month after start-up at the demonstration plant, ZeaChem halted production, citing funding problems. [32] The company plans to resume production if financial backing can be found. [32]

Coal export

Ambre Energy, a company based in Australia, proposed in 2011 to use the Port of Morrow as a transfer point for shipping U.S. coal to Asia. Ambre wants to export up to 8.8 million short tons (8,000,000 t) of coal per year from the Powder River Basin in Wyoming and Montana. It would ship the coal by train to Boardman, where it would be loaded on barges and hauled down the Columbia River to the Port of St. Helens. There it would be transferred to ocean-going ships headed for China, South Korea, Japan, and other Asian countries. [33]

The Ambre plan generated controversy among proponents touting economic benefits and opponents fearing environmental damage. In 2014, the Oregon Department of State Lands denied the company a necessary permit for the project, [33] and the company abandoned the coal shipping proposal in 2016. [34] [35]

Transportation

Boardman Airport, owned by the Port of Morrow, is 4 miles (6.4 km) southwest of the city. It is a public airport used mainly for transient and local general aviation. [36] Midcolumbia Bus Company are also in the Boardman area.
