' Big Island & Deering Island Inspection <br /> August 3 , 1983 <br /> Page 2 <br /> 5 . Garbage: All garbage is collected and barged to a large <br /> dumpster the camp maintains at Excelsior docks. <br /> 6 . Junk: Much, much junk has been removed from the island ' <br /> with minor amounts remaining, including at least one old <br /> truck body near the caretaker ' s house . <br /> 7 . Old Buildings: Most have been cleared of junk. Only the <br /> dormitory was boarded up, and that had been broken-into . <br /> The smaller buildings remain open and hazardous . <br /> 8 . Dormitory renovation: Peterson said that they were planning <br /> on "fixing-up" the old dormitory this fall for rental purposes <br /> next year . He was advised not to touch the building <br /> (except to board it up) until he submitted plans and received <br /> appropriate building permits . Further, he was advised that <br /> making the building conform to current codes would mean <br /> many changes, probably including 1) frost footings ; 2) new <br /> bedroom windows; 3) new exits and stairs; 4) fire separations <br /> fire doors and fire protection systems; 5) new wiring; <br /> 6) new plumbing and septic systems . " <br /> 9. Cabins : All cabins are supplied with smoke detectors , with <br /> fire extinquishers available every third cabin . <br /> 10 . Dining Hall : We discussed minimum fire code improvements <br /> including 1) marking of exits ; 2) clearing and opening of <br /> two exits on the north side; 3) provision of at least <br /> 2-20# fire extinguishers; 4) fire s.eparation of combustible <br /> storage rooms . <br /> 11 . Fuel Tank: Removal �or code-approved filling) of unused <br /> qasoline tank required. <br /> 12 . Fish Houses : Upon leaving the camp we discovered about <br /> 8-10 or more nearly identical fish houses stored near the <br /> caretaker ' s cabin . We don ' t know what this means . <br /> �nWavzata Yacht Club : ` We were told by Wayzata Yacht Club that they <br /> f n and ther fore the did <br /> o lo ger used their big island property e y <br /> R � ���j not apply for a license this year . They said they couldn ' t meet <br /> 1' our code reauirements for toilets, etc . Well , the cove "formerly" <br /> K����" used by them is plastered with brand new "Wayzata Yacht Club" and <br /> "Private Beach" signs, the picnic table is painted and the activity <br /> there is very much as it always has been. We will be contacting <br /> them for an explanation. <br /> \ <br /> � <br />
