. Big Island & Deering Island Inspection <br /> August 3 , 1983 <br /> Page 2 <br /> 5 . Garbage : All garbage is c'ollected 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 /> 7e 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 /> makinq the building conform to current codes would mean <br /> many changes , probably including 1) frost tootings ; 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 separation of combustible <br /> storage rooms . <br /> 11 . Fuel Tank: RemovalCor 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 /> Wavzata Yacht Club : We were told by Wayzata Yacht Club that they <br /> no longer used their big island property and therefore they did <br /> not apply for a license this year . They said they couldn ' t meet <br /> our code reauirements for toilets , etc . Well , the cove "formerly" <br /> used by them is plastered with brand new "�ayzata Yacht Club" and <br /> "Private Beach" siqns , 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 />
