used by the Alaska Marine Highway System (AMHS) in all of its ports of call. The primary purpose of this survey is to provide an overview of the present condition of the terminals to ensure the safety of the structures, aid planners in programming for future development, assist maintenance personnel with upkeep, and alert AMHS managers of operational constraints. AMHS vessels currently visit thirty-seven coastal communities (42 port facilities). The ownership and configuration of the facilities vary widely; they include state and foreign owned ferry terminals, city owned freight wharves, and privately owned fish processing docks. The above water components of each facility are inspected biennially (SE on odd years, SC & SW on even years) and underwater inspections are performed on a five-year cycle. Table 1 below lists the facilities, their owners, and the dates of the most recent inspections.
