ASARCO DOCKS

Read all about agreement to study removal of ASARCO DOCKS in Tacoma Weekly Dec 4th edition. One has to wonder why they need a study? Thousands of these supports have already been removed. At one time they stretched all the way from Ruston to Tacoma supporting sawmills, Albers Mill, grain storage and Tacoma docks.

Old timers remember when there was no Ruston Way only a single railroad line. Ruston Way and Waterview Street were dredged up out of Commencement Bay. But that was before the advent of bureaucrats and their ad hoc, burdensome, do nothing regulations. They have more life expectancy than Jobs for Justice. What a misnomer.

It seems pretty simple if they are polluted pull them up using a barge and barge them to somewhere where the sun doesn't shine. How much creosote can be left after 100 years?

Five hundred thousand dollar study for what? I just did it for free. Spend the money on something useful, to the taxpayers not the bureaucrats.

Just do it!!!!!
