Time’s running out: Terminal 5 comment deadline Friday afternoon

If you have something to say about the proposed “modernization” project at West Seattle’s Terminal 5 – especially something you hope the project will include, in response to environmental factors including traffic, noise, water quality, air quality – you’re running out of time to say it during this round of planning. You might recall that the comment period for the Draft Environmental Impact Statement was extended, by community request, after last month’s public hearings; the new deadline is just two days away – 4 pm Friday, July 8th. Information that might help:

    Please regulate water, air, traffic and noise during Terminal 5 modernization.

    My son just bought a house up hill from there in West Seattle.

    Thanks,
