Hi Mr. Muckrock,
Thank you for your patience. No responsive ERTS reports, files, or files at state archives were located for your requested site(s) of North Fork Gravel Pit, in the vicinity of Deming, WA at the Northwest Regional Office. It looks like this is likely on DNR land so they would probably be the best agency to ask regarding this property if you haven't already asked them.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
I will consider this request completed and closed.
Respectfully, Michael Hart
