ASCE COPRI Seattle Chapter Monthly Dinner Meeting - Feb 28, 2018
Topic: Ballard Locks: Keystone of Puget Sounds Maritime Economy
Description: The Ballard Locks are the only marine link between Seattles inland lakes, Lake Washington and Lake Union, and Puget Sound. In fact, the Locks serve more individual vessels than any other locks in the nation. Shortly after the 100th anniversary of the Locks opening day, there is growing concern about making the infrastructure upgrades needed for the Locks to continue operating reliably and safely. This presentation will describe the critical role the Locks play in Puget Sounds maritime economy, in addition to describing the potential losses in the event of a closure, the required upgrades to prevent a closure, and where we are in the process of obtaining federal funding.
Speakers: Heather Haugland (McDowell Group) & Ryan McFarland (Port of Seattle)
