On November 26, 1971, at 2:15 p.m., I talked to SAC MATSON regarding the air search of the area from Portland to Eugene, Oregon, and pointed out to him that we were through with the air search in the area in Washington, and I had suggested to SA MANNING that he have the Bonneville Power Administration and the Weyerhauser Helicopter Pilots contacted to see if they would be willing to assist in the air search in Oregon. If so, then I told him to contact SAC MATSON. SAC MATSON advised that the weather south of Portland now is closing in very rapidly and it did not appear feasible to con- duct an air search now, but that they would do it at the first opportunity.
