Tho Times was tho first newspaper in Oregon to print this Important nows, oven beating tho Portland pa pers. This ontclnl notlco wns received this morning from Cnptaln II. H. Robert. Tho nows In Tho Times first Always. Tho following copy of tho ofll clal notlco Is solf-oxplnnntory: PUBLIC NOTICE. WAR DEPARTMENT, Wnshlngton, D. C, Oct. 7, 1912. To Whom It Mny Concern: 1. Tho Rlvor and Harbor Act approved July 2G, 1012, contained provision for n preliminary exam ination of "Coos Bay and Bar En trance, Oregon, Including consldcr ntlon of any proposition for co operation on tho part of local In terests." The required examina tion has boon mndo by tho District Ofllcor nnd his report thereon 1b favorablo to tho extent of recom mending that n survey nnd osti mato bo ordered, looking townrd addltlonnl Improvement. 2. In nccordnnco with lnw, tho report has been referred to tho Board of Engineers and Harbors for consideration nnd recommenda tion. From tho Information pro sonted outlining physical nnd com mercial conditions, tho Board is not convinced of tho necessity or ad visability of tho United Stntcs un dertaking nny further improvement nt this locality for tho following rensons: (a) Under authority of tho Rl vor nnd Hnrbor Act of March 2, 1007, n preliminary oxamlnntlon nnd survey of this hnrbor woro mndo with a viow to tho adoption of a project commonsurato with tho needs of commcrco and navigation. Aftor n careful Btudy of physical and commercial conditions nnd a history of tho work already dono, a nrojoct wbb recommended nt nn estimated cost of $500,000, to In clr.do tho construction of a seago ing dredgo for operation on tho bar with n vlow to securing such depths ns were prnctlcnblc, and for n channel 18 foot In depth In tho bay. Tho estimated cost of tho maintenance or tins project ia $00,000 annually. (b) A project for tho restora tion of tho north Jetty nnd tho possible construction ,of n south Jetty wna nlso carefully considered. Experience on tho Jotty nlrendy constructed Indicated tho groat dif ficulty In maintaining tho outer end of tho Jetty, nnd tho dredging project wns recommended In tho hopo that a sulrablo chnnnol could thus bo mnlntnlnod at very much less cost than by tho reconstruc tion of the Jotty Tho seagoing dredgo has not Iwi completed, nor tho cfllcleni- r tho plan pro posed dotormlJ"' ' No work should bo dono rowni'l Jotty construction until tho present project hns beon fully tried. (c) It was clearly stated at tho tlrno tho present project was rec ommended thnt tho then existing commcrco would not warrant tho nddltlonnl Improvement proposed, nnd thnt Justification for further expenditures must bo found In prospective commcrco. Whllo thero i. nn imitn n tmniMiv nnd satisfac tory growth In tho commerce of this port, It bus not been greater than was nntlclpntod In order to Justify tho adoption of tho pres ent project. (A) Tho former report Indicat ed that tho repair nnd extension of tho north Jotty would cost near ly $2,000,000, and thnt a south Jetty would cost $331,000. Tho District Ofllcor states thnt now Port of Coos Bay Commission pro poses to co-opornto In tho Improve ment to tho extent of furnishing $150,000 toward tho restoration and extension of tho north Jotty nnd $50,000 townrd nn enlarged lint, nlinnnnl nrnvlflml floncrOHS will appropriate tho balanco of tho funds necessary to compioto incso tpnlnnfa Tt will lin flnnn Hint thn proposed contribution on tho part or tlio locality is uut a vorv smnu part of tho probablo cost of tho work now desired. 3. All parties interested In tho proposed Improvement nro Invited to submit, within a porlod of 30 dnys from tho dnto or this notlco, statements and nrgumonts bearing upon tho necessity for additional Improvement In tho Interests of commerce nnd navigation. Such statements should bo addressed to Tho Board of Engineers for Rivers nnd Hnrbors, Southern Building, Wnshlngton, D. C. Should n hear ing bo desired, this can bo arrang ed bv corrcsnondonco with tho Tlnnp,1 1 THE BOARD OF ENGINEERS FOR RIVERS AND HARBORS. ARE YOU KEEPING YOUR EUTURE BEHIND YOU?
