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.

Until recently Major Fries was en

in the Yellowstone National Park and
then went to Los Angeles to study
oiled-road construction in which the
Southern California, authorities have
enjoyed wide experience. He was also
in that vicinity before, having been in

for a few year, and was ordered Kast
in 1909 and spent feur years at Wash
ington on being assigned to the Yel
lowstone Park duties. Colonel McKln

fice together during the remainder of
the week, so the latter may familiarize
himself with detail work that has been
carried on since he waa stationed here.

and pier feature, and when" that ia

Meanwhile no difficulty ia experienced
in handling- shiDS alongside the main
dock, and the second unit of the covered
section is being used for the storage
of cargo. The warehouse construction
ia well along, and by the time Spring
business opens the entire dock plant
should be turned over to the conunis

used in keeDing the channel clean
after once scoured by the Jetties was
recommended.
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." , "
