 water pollution is necessary. We have waited too long 

 for voluntary action by the pulp and paper mills to abate 

 the manace of harmful wastes being released into public 

 waters as a result of their operations. 



There is an immediate urgency for the 

 abatement of this sourcf^ of pollution, and we feel that 

 joint State-Federal enforcement action to abate the 

 pollution of Puget Sound waters should br> Immediately 

 implemented. 



I wish now to address myself briefly to the-- 



CHAIRM.M:i fi'EIN: Before you go on, sir.

MR. LASATER: All right, sir. At your 

 pleasure . 



CHAIRMAN STEIN: Go ahead. 



MR. LASATER: That, is the completion of 

 the statement if you wish just the appendix subcritted and 

 not road. 



CHARMAN STEIN: Do you want to read it? 

 Would you rather read the appendix?
