I am very concerned about the potential detrimental effect that heavy ore-bearing traffic would have on Haines. It would threaten air and water quality standards, fishing in Lutak Inlet, and adversely impact the traveling public at the Haines terminal.
Improvements to borough docking facilities should continue to focus on Alaska Marine Lines/Lyndon Transport services, be compatible with the role that the ferry terminal provides, and possibly provide alternative commercial cruise ship docking, as it did years ago.
