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.
