Abstract

"This Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) has been composed by a group of Huxley students under the supervision of Dr. Leo Bodensteiner. Together, we have analyzed the proposed plan for the relocation of the Lummi Island ferry docks located on Lummi Island and Gooseberry Point. The end of a 25-year lease and the proposed removal of the Gooseberry Point dock spurred the possible relocation. Our discussion includes the current proposal and two alternatives for the ferry routes. The alternatives include the transfer to either the Bellingham Cruise Terminal or Whatcom Waterway. Existing conditions and impacts are outlined within the EIA."
