Daugherty, Roseburg engineer, said today that he would be "glad to meet with the council and any other engineer" to justify his work. Daugherty was Informed Mon day of a meeting of the Myrtle C eek city council last week, in which he was criticized for "fail ure to provide the council with complete data and field notes on the Job."

He must keep his field notes until this phase of the survey Is completed, he explained. A preliminary map showing lo cation of proposed sewer lines was also criticized.
