华盛顿州瑟斯顿县奥林匹亚市：德舒特河口修复环评草案10月28日晚举行公开听证
2026年10月28日晚，美国华盛顿州瑟斯顿县奥林匹亚市，华盛顿州生态部将在奥林匹亚中心举行德舒特河口修复项目的公开听证会，开放参观从下午5时30分开始，会议6时开始，听证会6时30分开始，地点为哥伦比亚街西北222号。
本次听证针对的是项目补充环境影响报告草案，评估自2022年最终环评以来调整的设计方案对环境可能造成的影响，包括更换马拉松公园的公用事业与人行桥、在传统公园新建护堤和高架步道、在图姆沃特历史酿酒厂新建护堤、保护伯灵顿北方圣太菲铁路桥，以及细化河道疏浚与栖息地、第五大道桥和道路等设计。草案同时评估了“不采取行动”的替代方案。
德舒特河口修复项目计划通过拆除水坝、将国会湖恢复为天然河口，使德舒特河重新连通普吉特海湾，恢复南普吉特海湾260英亩河口与盐沼栖息地，改善水质、抑制入侵物种并为幼年鲑鱼重建栖息地。
生态部与企业服务部将汇总公众意见，用于编制预计明年完成的最终报告；补充环评本身不是决策文件，不批准也不否决项目。
Public Hearing on the Evening of October 28 in Olympia, Washington, on the Draft Environmental Review for the Deschutes Estuary Restoration
On the evening of October 28, 2026, in Olympia, Thurston County, Washington, the state Department of Ecology held a public hearing on the Deschutes Estuary Restoration Project at the Olympia Center, 222 Columbia Street NW, with an open house starting at 5:30 p.m., a meeting at 6 p.m. and the hearing at 6:30 p.m.
The hearing concerned the project's draft supplemental environmental impact statement, which assesses the possible environmental effects of design changes made since the final environmental review in 2022. These include replacing utilities and the pedestrian bridge at Marathon Park, building a new berm and elevated walkway at Heritage Park, building a new berm at the Tumwater historic brewery, protecting the BNSF railway bridge, and refining the designs for channel dredging and habitat, and for the Fifth Avenue bridge and roadway. The draft also evaluates a "no action" alternative.
The Deschutes Estuary Restoration Project plans to remove the dam and restore Capitol Lake to a natural estuary, reconnecting the Deschutes River with Puget Sound, restoring 260 acres of estuary and salt marsh habitat in south Puget Sound, improving water quality, suppressing invasive species and rebuilding habitat for juvenile salmon.
The departments of Ecology and Enterprise Services will compile public comments for the final report, expected to be completed next year. The supplemental review is not itself a decision document and neither approves nor rejects the project.
