Update on our Federal permits: we've had some recent contact from a new project manager at US Fish & Wildlife and things are looking good. I'm working on some additional monitoring plans to protect endangered species (particularly Marbled Murrelets) during the pile removal/driving phase of the project. Looking forward to moving back into the work of getting the project funded!
