On October 31, 2011, authorities at Olympic CC entered into a contract with McDougall & Sons orchard[1] in Quincy, Grant County to use 105 inmates to pick apples for that company. McDougall agreed to pay corrections officials $22.00 per hour per inmate for the labor.
The camp is located in Jefferson County, on Hoh Mainline Road north of Clearwater, Washington.
