The numbers suggest the Tri-Cities needs to expand, which is why the health district is on the prowl for funds to open a second location. “We are very interested in bringing it to Benton County,” said Dr. Amy Person, the Mid-Columbia’s public health officer. Before April, Tri-Citians had no place to safely exchange dirty syringes. Residents who wanted to swap needles drove to Walla Walla or Yakima.
