May 27, 1999 — Initial Investigation

Called The Manager At Chesser Island Road Land Fill And Asked Him If They Were Using The Creek For Anything. He Said That In The Past They Have Used Water From One Of The Creek'S Tributaries That Flows Thru The Landfill For Dust Control, But Water Levels Are So Low Due To Lack Of Rainfall That They Have Ceased This Operation. He Said That The Creek Is Fed From The Swamp, And That Swamp Water Levels Are Low This Year Due To The Dry Conditions.

June 1, 1999 — Follow-Up Investigation Report

Called Mr. Worley And Passed On This Information. He Said That He Had Walked Up The Creek Over The Memorial Day Weekend, And Had Discovered This Himself.
