Abstract
On the lattice we consider the following oriented (northwest-northeast) site percolation: the lines are first declared to be bad or good with probabilities δ and respectively, independently of each other. Given the configuration of lines, sites on good lines are open with probability , the critical probability for the standard oriented site percolation on , and sites on bad lines are open with probability , some small positive number, independently of each other. We show that given any pair and , there exists a small enough, so that for there is a strictly positive probability of oriented percolation to infinity from the origin.
