  • Final Program Environmental Impact Report
    Executive Summary Final Program Environmental Impact Report Expansion of Ferry Transit Service in the San Francisco Bay Area Prepared by: URS Corporation June 2003 Prepared for: Executive Summary ES.1 INTRODUCTION This document is a Program Environmental Impact Report (EIR) addressing the San Francisco Water Transit Authority’s (WTA) Proposed Project to implement expanded ferry service in the Bay Area. The WTA began operation as a new regional agency in 2000, with the directive of evaluating options to improve and expand Bay Area ferry service and to report back to the California Legislature with a recommended plan of action. As a result, the preparation of WTA’s Implementation and Operations Plan (IOP) initiated a wide range of studies, consultation, and public outreach that provided input to the decision-making process of developing the plan. From August 2002 through January 2003, the WTA circulated a Draft Program EIR for public review and comment. That EIR did not identify a proposed project or preferred alternative; rather, it addressed a range of alternatives for expanding ferry service in the Bay Area. In March 2003, the WTA recirculated the Draft EIR in order to include analysis of the IOP Alternative, which is now identified as the Proposed Project, in accordance with CEQA Guidelines. ES.2 PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES/NEED ES.2.1 Purpose and Objectives The primary purpose of the WTA system IOP is to increase Bay Area regional mobility and transportation options by providing new and expanded water transit services and related ground transportation terminal access in the Bay Area. ES.2.2 Need The Bay Area is home to a highly diverse population and historically strong economy that is served by a complex transportation network.

  • Veterans Day Aboard the SS Red Oak Victory
    Veterans Day Aboard the SS Red Oak Victory Hundreds packed the partly restored World War II cargo ship in Richmond Friday to honor and celebrate veterans. By Soren Hemmila Veterans Day aboard the SS Red Oak Victory ship Supervisor John Gioia, with Mariam Sauer, an original Rosie the Riveter, help re-christen SS Red Oak Victory ship in Richmond, Veterans Day, Nov. 11, 2011. A large-than-expected crowd attended a Veterans Day event aboard the SS Red Oak Victory in Richmond Friday. The Chevron-sponsored gathering honored those who served abroad in America’s armed services as well as those who supported the war effort at home. With the threat of rain, the ceremony was moved inside the Red Oak. Hundreds packed into the hull of the cargo vessel to listen to stories of Richmond during the war years. An original "Rosie the Riveter" was on hand to help re-christen the Kaiser-built vessel. Richmond native Mariam Sauer, along with Contra Costa County Supervisor John Gioia and Richmond Vice Mayor Tom Butt, smashed a champagne bottle to reenact the 1944 launch of the munitions carrier. The ship recently underwent extensive repairs in dry dock and received a fresh coat of paint. According to the Richmond Museum of History, the Red Oak is the Victory ship from the Richmond shipyard that is being restored. Russ Yarrow of Chevron detailed the role the Richmond refinery played during World War II. The refinery won numerous production and development awards during the war. It developed special submarine lubricants and produced 100 octane aviation fuel necessary for America’s war effort.
