At its regularly scheduled meeting in Eureka tonight at 7 p.m. the Humbolt Bay Habor, Recreation and Conservation Dist. is considering the restoration of 18 miles of the NWP from Rhonerville to Fields Land AND THE building of the ex S.P. 1909 surveyed line from Eureka to Gerber (south of Red Bluff.) $300,000 has been spent studying this concept. Full details at [www.humboldtbay.org]
See--Pages 9a and pages 21 to 22. The details were also announced yesterday in open session of the regular North Coast Rail Authority meeting in Novato yesterday. The current NWP operator, John Williams would retain his operating rights on the Eureka portion of the railroad and along with NCRA receive the origination and receiving end of the revenu if such a scenario were come to fruition. This move would lead the "Friends of the Eel" essentially up a creek without a paddle."
