Adolescent Secure Treatment Program for children, treating patients from age eight to eighteen. In 1981 and 1983, respectively, the hospital abolished the practice of lobotomy and dismantled its eugenics program. Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, the hospital again continued to experience issues with overcrowding; in 1991, it was noted that the hospital was so overcrowded that beds were placed in corridors and smoking rooms in wards. 2000–2008: Public criticism By the turn of the twenty-first century, the hospital began to experience criticism from the public over its aging facilities and patient care. In 2004, the Salem Statesman Journal conducted a two-month investigation into the facility, in which they claimed the hospital's living conditions were overcrowded, also noting outdated facilities. Additionally, the newspaper reported systematic problems resulting in drug addicts and alcoholics being wrongly admitted, as well as severe understaffing and failure of the hospital to properly investigate and prosecute patient assaults against staff members. A 2004 investigation by the Statesman Journal led to further investigation into the hospital, and a 2005 architectural assessment of the facility determined that the site was unsafe. The same year, the hospital's Child and Adolescent Secure Treatment Program was dismantled, and the Oregon Advocacy Center filed a federal suit alleging that overcrowding and understaffing posed a risk to both patients and staff. On August 8, 2006, the hospital was fined US$10,200 for asbestos violations. Another controversy at the hospital involved the fate of over 5,000 copper canisters of human cremated remains that had been kept in the basement of the original building over a period of decades. The canisters were brought to public attention after senator Peter Courtney came across them while touring the hospital in 2004; the canisters had been relocated to Building 60 on the hospital campus, many of which were corroded and oxidized from moisture exposure. The remains were the subject of a Pulitzer Prize-winning series by The Oregonian newspaper, published in 2005. In 2007, the hospital was granted permission from the state to release the names of the deceased in hopes of returning the unclaimed remains to proper family members. In 2011, Building 60 was renovated and converted into a public memorial housing the unclaimed remains. As of July 2014, state officials had discovered that 1,500 sets of remains may have been lost. Department of Justice report In 2008, the United States Department of Justice filed a report which criticized the
