PRESS RELEASE
Arthur G. Barger, Special Agent in Charge, Federal Bureau of Investigation for the District of Oregon, advised Special Agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, assisted by officers of the Clark County, Washington, Sheriff's Depart- ment, conducted a search of a section of beach on the bank of the Columbia River approximately nine miles downstream from the Interstate 5 Bridge between Portland and Vancouver. Nothing was located in the search during the day except for a few more small fragments of bills similar to those found on February 12, 1980, at the same location as that from which the bills were removed by the Ingram family on February 10, 1980.
It has been determined through the records of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers that the material on the beach was deposited there as the result of a dredging operation in the Columbia River in August, 1974. The assistance of a geologist has been obtained in an effort to determine whether or not the money was deposited at that location as a part of the spoilage of the dredging operation. The meticulous search of the beach area will continue on February 24, 1980.
