on BIA The deadline for submitting comments on the Bureau of Indian Affairs’ draft Environmental Impact Statement on the proposed Cowlitz Casino Resort between La Center and Ridgefield is Friday, July 14, and more local organizations are going public with their comments. The draft document under scrutiny by the BIA suggests that the best use for the 152-acre site is a casino and commercial development, including tribal offices and a museum. According to the La Center City council, which submitted a 28-page letter to the BIA, the DEIS contains “glaring inaccuracies.” Clark County commissioners, who also released their comments on the DEIS, said that the Cowlitz Tribe's proposal for a large casino near La Center "does not serve the tribe's interests." The DEIS analysis is flawed and should be redone, commissioners said. The Neighborhoods Association of Clark County is working on a letter stating that a primary concern is the impact of the development on the transportation system. The NACCC agreed at its July meeting that it was not taking a position on the proposed development. The deadline to submit comments on the draft impact statement is 5 p.m. Friday, July 14. They are to be submitted to Mr. Stanley Speaks, Regional Director, Northwest Regional Office of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, 911 NE 11th Avenue, Portland, OR 97232-4169.
