Chambers Creek is a creek in Washington. It is fed by Lake Steilacoom in Lakewood, Washington. Chambers Creek was named for Thomas M. Chambers, who settled near Olympia, Washington in 1846 and later built a sawmill on the creek. Abitibi Consolidated Inc owned a paper mill along the south side of the lower reaches of the creek until 2010.〔http://blog.thenewstribune.com/street/2010/04/05/more-on-former-abitibi-mill-site-in-steilacoom/〕 The creek is dammed just upstream from the mill to provide water for the now-defunct mill, which began to be demolished in 2011 after the land was purchased by Tim Ralston.〔http://missoulian.com/news/local/smurfit-stone-frenchtown-mill-site-is-clean-safe-for-development/article_ca1909aa-4c0d-11e0-9c46-001cc4c002e0.html〕 Much of the lower reaches of Chambers Creek is part of the (Chambers Creek Properties ), a series of recreational sites owned and operated by Pierce County. The creek is a popular location for fishing, walking, and skimboarding. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chambers Creek (Washington)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
