  1. Page 2 of the memo says the increase in Mercury in 1983 probably “reflects a single event.”
    Actually, it reflected the 6,330 pound mercury spill Teck had in 1981, and did not inform any US officials about it until 5 weeks after the fact.
    The US officials never informed any of the residents of Northport, or any of the small communities along the Upper Columbia River of the spill.
