PORT ANGELES — Wednesday’s four-hour workshop on the future of Port Angeles Harbor highlighted the bigger role tourism is playing in how the area is used than it did in the late 1980s.
The change from industrial and marine uses to tourism was evident in many of the display booths at the forum, which was moderated by Tom Keegan, president of Peninsula College, and hosted by the Port Angeles Harbor Task Force.
Along with the Port of Port Angeles, city of Port Angeles, Clallam County, U.S. Coast Guard and Clallam County, displays also were set up by the Olympic Peninsula Audubon Society, North Olympic Land Trust, Olympic Peninsula Paddlers and Heritage Tours.
The Port adopted the Port Angeles Harbor Resource Management Plan in July 1989.
