THE MORNING OREGOXTAN, THURSDAY, JANUARY 7, 1915. IS BASE TO BE BUILT Work on Stations for Survey Crews Starts Today. DATA ON CUT ARE SOUGHT tusincrrs Hunt BaMs for Fsllmate on Amount of Material to Be Krniovfd M hen Channel Is Dug- to 30 Feet to Columbia. Work bt-Kins today on the re-estab-Ilshment of stations to be ueed as a base for engineer engaged in conduct ing a survey of the harbor from the northernmost end of Ross Island to the Juncture of the Willamette and Colum bia rivers, lly the opening of next week the tug nonh, of the Port of Portland IWt. will start with a full surveying crew to do the work under the direction of Captain H. T. Grovea. superintendent of the Port of Portland dredirlng department, and with the as sistance of Government engineer offi cers. The primary aim of the survey ia to determine the amount of material to be removed in creating; a depth in the harbor of 32 feet, and of 30 feet from the north end of the harbor to the Co lumbia. Thirty feet will be the ruling depth for the present from there to the eea, but In most places where dredging is carried on the depth will be 32 reel. The survey will show exact conditions in the harbor proper, and is expected to lead to the announcement by the Port of Portland Commission of its fu ture policy concerning harbor work. It already has gone on record as willing to dredce in front of private docks if provision is made to care for the mate rial ashore behind properly constructed bulkheads, otherwise that as soon aathe new harbor project was undertaken it would dig to within SO feet of docks. There has been a plan under con sideration of purchasing new engines for the new steel hull built for the dredge Columbia and transferring such auxiliary gear as could be spared, leav ing the main engine and pumps aboard the Columbia so that she could be used as a relay to one of the big dredges and thereby double the length of dis charge pipeline, enabling material to be dredged In the harbor and carriedbelow for filling low landa beyond the present look, area. The harbor project will call for a 3 foot depth between harbor lines, and from Swan Island to the Columbia the channel ultimately will be 600 feet wide. What is to be done regarding widening the channel between Swan Island and the east shore and opening the west channel depends largely on the result of a public hearing to be conducted by Government engineers as soon as official Information la received from Washington as to what action was taken on recommendations of Colonel McKlnstry. Corps of Engineers. United States Army, dealing with harbor line changes discussed at a public hearing held in the Fall. JIAJ.

The Rivers and Harbors Board tem porarily laid this report aside touai according to a telegram from Repre sentative Johnson, not because it-does not approve or the report, dui Be cause a survey of the channel re cently made shows a changing condi tion that may modify some of the pro visions of the report and because the Board has decided "that nothing can be gained by making any recommen dation right now." , " PACKAGES "OT INSPECTED Official Washington Rules on Im portant Cargo Feature.
