RE: TELEPHONE SERVICE AT COMMAND POST, MERWIN DAM, (TELEPHONE NO. 225-7151)

---

On April 17, 1972, the writer contacted [REDACTED] of the General Telephone Company, Gresham, Oregon, which handles the telephone service at Merwin Dam to discuss the billing of the telephone installed on 3/20/72 at the Command Post at Merwin Dam. It was explained to [REDACTED] that, in view of the heavy use of the phone to make calls to Fort Lewis, this office was interested in exploring the possibility of having the entire billing made as a Watts installation, retroactive to the date of installation, if such a billing would be cheaper than having the calls treated as long distance calls. To make such a determination, however, the telephone company would have to determine what the bill is at this time. [REDACTED] said he would request a special run of the billing for the above number which would take some three days as these runs are made every three days and would telephonically contact the writer or ASAC [REDACTED]

---

[REDACTED] advised, however, even if the Watts line would be cheaper he doubted if it would be made retroactive at this date.

---

It also was explained to [REDACTED] that we might consider furnishing his company with a list of calls made from the Command Post to various numbers at Fort Lewis and have separate billings made up.

---

On April 18, 1972, SA MANNING advised that the Command Post at Merwin Dam would be totally deactivated by early noon of April 18, 1972, and he was then calling the local operator to have the telephone at the Command Post discontinued as of close of business April 18, 1972.
