> The Harbor District meeting will be at 6:30pm on Wednesday, April
> 28th, at the Adorni Center. The Harbor District's consultant on the
> revitalization plan, Parsons Brinckerhoff (aka PB Ports & Marine),
> is largely responsible for the inclusion of an LNG terminal among the
> list of potential industries for the bay. PB Ports & Marine is a
> mega-engineering firm involved in massive infrastructure projects
> around the world including Boston's 'Big Dig', the single most
> expensive, over-budget, and behind-schedule public works project ever
> in the history of the United States. This is not a company known for
> making decisions as to whether or not a project is
'do-able'.  Rather,
> to PB, every project is feasible, and there is no problem which can
> not be mitigated. They are not in the business of saying something
> cannot be done. Their website, www.pbworld.com, provides some
> interesting reading.
> The Humboldt Bay Stewards and others have expressed their frustration
> at the limited public notice of this meeting, and it is also
> disappointing that the Harbor District has not allowed for
> presentations or comments from other organizations. Rather, the
> meeting will consist primarily of a presentation on the
Revitalization
> Plan, followed by small group discussions. 
>  
> This meeting should provide a good opportunity to steer the Harbor
> District away from the industry-intensive vision provided by their
> consultant, and towards a healthier and more sustainable vision that
> reflects the natural strengths of our area. I have attached the
> agenda for the meeting, and more info is available at
> www.humboldtwatch.org.
