The City of Los Angeles Harbor Department, or Harbor Department, has prepared this Recirculated Initial Study/Negative Declaration or IS/ND, to address the environmental effects of the proposed Berth 200 Roadway Improvement Project.

The project will widen and extend the Berth 200 roadway between South Avalon Boulevard and North Henry Ford Avenue. The goals of the project are to improve truck efficiency, allow trucks to be diverted away from the proposed Wilmington Waterfront Park and improve the visual experience from the park. All trucks must turn right at North Henry Ford Avenue.

This document includes a discussion of the proposed project’s effects on the existing environment. In accordance with the CEQA Statutes and Guidelines, the IS/ND is being circulated for a period of  30 days for public review and comment. The public has an opportunity to  provide written comments on the information contained within the IS/ND.

The 30 -day review period started on April 15, 2021 and ends on May 14, 2021. A copy of this document is available for public view on the Port Of Los Angeles’ website at: http://www.portoflosangeles.org
