So far this winter, the Shelton
School District has been forced to
close its schools four days due to
bad weather and road conditions.
The district made up one of the
"snow days" on January 2, which
had been scheduled as a vacation
day. Currently, the district plans
to make up the three remaining
lost days on June 21, 22 and 25.
Meanwhile, Superintendent
Joan Zook has asked the Washing-
ton State Office of Superintendent
of Public Instruction for a waiver
for one of' the lost days, namely,
December 15, the day after the
major windstorm that caused
widespread power outages in Ma-
son County. Governor Christine
Gregoire declared an emergency
in several counties, including Ma-
son County, following that storm.
The OSPI has proposed an emer-
gency amendment to the Wash-
County surveying
north-end sewers
(Continued from page 1.)
Another proposal is to convey
collected wastewater via a trans-
mission force main to a reclama-
tion facility utilizing membrane
biological reactor technology
located adjacent to the Belfair
UGA.
The estimated project cost of
the recommended plan is $33.8
million with $507,000 in annual
maintenance costs or $35.4 mil-
lion to include the North Bay/Case
Inlet Expansion, with annual op-
eration costs of $477,000.

Natural gas is odorless, but an
odorant is added to it so that peo-
ple will know when it is present
in the atmosphere. Salzer said
the cause of the smell was traced
to a Cascade Natural Gas trans-
fer station in the Deegan Road
area and to a filter that needed
to be replaced there.
There was no leak of natural
gas during Friday's event, but an
amount of the odorant escaped
into the atmosphere and a tem-
perature inversion kept it close
to the ground, Salzer said. The
filter was replaced by 9:30 Friday
morning and Shelton returned to
its usual aroma.
