 feathers out to a band or strip of isolated clumps of 

 fibrous material. This strip ranges in width from a few 

 feet to several hundred feet. Inspection indicated that 

 a condition of general equilibrium existed between the 

 depth and extent of the deposited material and the bottom 

 currents . 



Observations by divers in the deposition 

 area revealed an abundance of marine animals living on and 

 immediately above the deposits. Those noted include: 

 spider crab, anemone, limpet, starfish, shrimp, sculpin, 

 and flounder. Existence of these creatures is indicative 

 of aerobic conditions on the surface of the deposit. 



Except for a shallow surface layer, the 

 water overlying the deposition area was found to be quite 

 clear and schools of several different species of fish 

 and other animals were observed. These included Pacific 

 herring, yellowtail rockfish, Pacific staghorn sculpin, 

 starry flounder, shrimp, krlll, spider crab, hermit crab, 

 starfish, anemone, nudibranches, and octopus. Local divers, 

 in addition, reported the presence of lingcod, marbled 

 sculpin, and black rockfish. On several occasions, sports 

 fishermen were observed catching salmon adjacent to the 

 Flbreboard dock which is located in the deposition area.
