Sara and Sheila,
We need the information on where your investigation is going
with Olympic National Park(ONP) and the Corps of
Engineers(USACE).
Surely a month would be enough time for you to realize if
you are able to gather any of the valuable information that has been
repeatedly denied to us by these two government agencies.
We asked for names of the engineers, biologists, supervisors
and anyone else in authority from 2001 to the present. There are
numerous officials that would have had to sign
numerous documents to alter the channel of such a large
tributary. Who are they? And where are the documents?
ONP and USACE can produce no documents that authorize such a
channel change.
We need names and documents, and these past six weeks should
have been a long enough time frame to gather them.
Does Congressman Dicks and Senator Murray have any control
over these "goons" that have run roughshod over the environment of
Olympic National Park? I certainly hope that they do.
I also hope there are some serious administrative
consequences for their wreckless actions. For the past
ten years these actions have wrought havoc on an entire
ecosystem from the mouth of Finley Creek to the upper end of Lake
Quinault.
We need some information. Thank you in advance.
Keith

Keith,
We apologize for the delayed response. We have all been very busy the
last couple months. We are still very interested in a meeting on Finley
Creek. Sheila and I are both available on Nov. 1st. Would that day work
for you? If so, what would be a good time?
I look forward to hearing from you. Hope all is well.
Sara Crumb
Office of Congressman Norm Dicks

OK, time's up, we need a response of some kind!
I haven't gotten a reply to my other two emails in
regards to a meeting at Finley Creek. It has been so long now
that I can't even remember exactly which one(or two) of you said that
you would come out here and visit the Finley Creek site.
You are all busy, I am sure. Us Quinault
Valley residents are also busy, weary, mad, frustrated, and just
plain fed up with being pushed aside. Enough is enough. You
may forget, but this isn't anything new; we are regularly treated
this way whether it is Grays Harbor County, USFS, NPS, WDFW, Quinault
Indian Nation, or countless other governmental agencies.
If you are serious about a meeting with
us I imagine you are aware of the damage that the National
Park Service has wrought upon the residents of the Upper Quinault
Valley. If you are not, like I told you after our meeting, I have
countless documents, emails, permits, papers, and pictures documenting
the damage done by their actions.
We are fed up.
Can we expect a visit or not?
Thank you in these busy times for us all.
Keith
