Spotted doing volunteer work for the Duwamish Alive Collaborative, MM&P Vice President Offshore Pacific Ports J. Lars Turner and a really cute helper. (We sure do love to see dogs in MM&P posts. And community work. And MM&P shirts.)
Duwamish Alive collaborates with community, municipalities, non-profits and businesses within the Duwamish River Watershed to preserve and enhance habitat for people and wildlife, towards improving the health of the Puget Sound.
The specific site was part of the Super Fund cleanup effort which covers the first 5 miles of the river basin. It was designed primarily as habitat for juvenile Chinook salmon with an intertidal estuary.
