Representatives of the Tulalip Tribes of Washington will meet with state officials to discuss the protection of burial grounds at the new Cama Beach State Park.
The tribe wants the state to halt work at the park, where four ancestors have already been uncovered. Henry Gobin, a cultural resources specialist, says the site is significant to the tribe.
The state has halted work pending new studies but says it won't stop the park project.
