Hazards: Asbestos on roofs and materials used in buildings on-site. Lead paint. PCBs. A large factory, including silos, smoke stacks, and a couple houses on the property. Security measures: An older brown pickup truck with a passenger wearing high-visibility vest slowed down on hwy 30 and glared, drove off without saying anything. Possibly Baker County contract security personnel.

Underground passage ways. As of October 2015: Access onto site is easy, but ladders to high sections of silos and smokestack have been cut off. Pretty much the only thing that remains is the cement skeleton. Wind levels are no joke here. Don't stand around where you think getting shoved will push you over. It's that strong. Safety goggles with side shield would be useful in some parts so you can avoid getting sand blasted in your eyes.

The Sun Portland Cement Plant was built to provide cement for the construction of Owyhee Dam. According to Oregon Geology Magazine (Feb 1965), the Lime Oregon plant was completed and went live in November 1923. This plant was used to mine limestone and supply eastern oregon and western Idaho. After the lime stone depleted in the mid 1970s, it had to source raw materials from Nelson, Oregon and operated for a few years until shutting down in 1980. A new facility was built in Durkee about 15 miles down the freeway in 1979 and still active. The old facility was bought by Hobson in 1991 and used to process used tires, but foreclosed by Baker County in 1999 and has been abandoned since. Demolished in July 2018
