Light-House Establishment

Office of Engineer,
13th District
Portland, Oreg.

August 22, 1906.

The Light-House Board,
Washington, D. C.

Sirs:
I have the honor to report that
the building occupied by the Second
Assistant Keeper at Yaquina Head
Light-Station, Oregon, is absolutely
unfit for human habitation. This
matter has been repeatedly reported
and the recommendation for a new
dwelling has been made in the Boards's
last six annual reports.
A carpenter work-shop and store
house are urgently required, the
present work shop building being old
and dilapitated. It is believed that
this building can be repaired and
temporary quarters provided for this
Keeper who is a single man.
Authority is therefore respectfully
requested to repair and remodel this
building at a cost of not to exceed $500.00
per detailed estimate herewith, the cost
to be paid from funds now on hand
belonging to the appropriaton, Repairs
& Incidental Expenses of Light-Houses,
1907.
If this estimate be approved it is
recommended that the work be done
by hired labor and purchase of
necessary materials
