Mr. & Mrs. Gerald Phillips appeared along with 7 other concerned residents to protest the metal extraction project proposed by Olympic Testing Labs at the January 5, 1981 meeting. On that date the Board declared a final declaration of non-significance. At the time of the environmental assessment neither the Board nor the Planning Department were aware of a drainage basin leading to Donovan Creek which runs through the project site. The protesters of this project are concerned that there will be possible leaching of chemicals and rock tailings into the drainage way and into the creek. t1r. Hoyt, project proponent said he was not aware of a full-sized creek near the site either, but feels it doesn't matter because there would be no leach- ing of chemicals.

The people concerned urged the Commissioners to demand an E.I.S. for the project because of the risks involved. The Board directed the Planning Department to investigate the matter, specifically how the chemicals are used, as well as the creek in question and report back to them.
