MAY MAKE SURVEY
OF RIVER POSSIBILITIES
The Brookings Port Commiss
ion will consider the possibility
of making a survey on the potent
ials of the Chetco river, and Its
banks.
Rather than to start develop -
ment on a h elter-skelter basis,
which may be regretted later,
the Commission thought that it
would be much better to present
an over-all development plan to
the public.
A letter was written to the
Stanford Research group who
specializes in jobs of this sort,
to determine what the cash out
lay would be to give the river
and its shores a contrete plan.
At least one private Individual
has Indicated that he would p u t
In a good size hunk of money to
help finance the research work.
The survey would include such
Items as barging, channel, com -
merclal fishing, and public ac
ce ss to the river.
It was understood that the Arm;
Engineers are waiting for the
local Commission to show that
they Intend to do something, be
fore the Engineers approve fur
ther work on the project, suchai
dredging.
The Jetty work is apparently
right on schedule now, with a
November completion date. The
contractors have put In s o m e
night work in recent weeks in an
effort to maintain their schedule.
They must add a couple of
hundred feet to each Jetty. T h e
recent storm showed that they
were well constructed, only th e
roadbed was lost, and that w a s
expected.
