Mr. Lambert requested the Board have Prosecuting Attorney Howard
enjoin the Pacific Rim Group from using the property as a campers club until
the club's permit is acted upon. Also, Mr. Lambert brought to the Board's
attention that the log cabin, located within 200 feet of the waterfront,
falls within the shoreline act and as usage of the cabin has changed to
that of a clubhouse it will affect the beach.

consulted before the Board could make a decision. He also advised the
Coyle residents to check with their own attorney.

the material is toxic. Commissioner Brown moved that the Board write a
letter to the Seattle Office Of Community Development to request a chemical
analysis of the dredged material, and that a Final Declaration of Non-Signi-
ficance not be issued until reasonable assurance can be given that any
contamination will not result. Seconded by Commissioner O'Meara. Unanimous
