Comments of the Lewis County Historical Society on the Environmental Assessment re the Lyonsdale Hydroelectric Project under P-3255.

Summary: Jonathan W. Miller, President of the Lewis County Historical Society, argues that the proposed hydroelectric project should be conditioned upon the preservation of the historically significant Burial Island and its monument. He emphasizes the historical importance of the site, specifically its connection to Caleb Lyon, and warns that the project's water flow will degrade the island without fortification.
