PORT TOWNSEND — Lifting the order to stop work on an environmental impact statement for a proposed 4-mile-long conveyor to carry gravel from “pit to pier” isn’t enough, said Fred Hill Materials project manger Dan Baskins.
The company wants from the Jefferson County commissioners an admission of error, an apology and a promise that they won’t take such action again.
The commissioners lifted last week their termination of county work on the company’s pit-to-pier project environmental impact statement.
Baskins said the company wants to go to binding arbitration to settle its dispute with the county commissioners’ actions.
“We have to exhaust our administrative process to get to a court of jurisdiction to correct the wrong that the board has done,” Baskins said.
