What does the scan show?
A person reads every report. Corrections are made by hand, to the data — titles, dates, names, which pages belong together — never to the scans, and they can take a while to appear.

On 5/12/72, Chief of Police TED BOURDAGE, Kalama, Washington, volunteered the use of his boat in order to locate the object seen by [REDACTED] near Lake Merwin, Washington.
A thorough examination of the south shore of Lake Merwin was made until the location described by [REDACTED] was located, at which time it was determined that the object [REDACTED] saw was the tin roof of a building directly opposite Speeleye bay. It should be noted that the tin roof appeared to be an object hanging in the trees until it was clearly identified.
