At 10:30 AM I advised SA MANNING that one helicopter from the BPA, two from the Air National Guard in Portland were on their way to Woodland now; that those three, together with the one supplied by Weyerhaueser seemed to me to be enough and in view of this he should advise Army pilots that they were being relieved. I furnished this information to SA [REDACTED] at the Bureau and told him that since we would very likely have to pay for them anyway pending the decision as to whether we would continue their use, we utilize them but were in the process of relieving them at once. I furnished him the details of the replacement helicopters.

[REDACTED] from Fort Lewis called and I advised him that since we had found other helicopters we were relieving his men and thanked them very much.
