The Port of Oakland recently completed environmental studies on the potential impacts of the proposed Turning Basins Widening Project, which involves widening both the Inner and Outer Harbor turning basins at the Oakland Seaport. The project is expected to be considered for approval by the Board of Port Commissioners on July 10, 2025.
The Alameda City Council will continue its discussions about this project in Closed Session on July 1. The City is preparing to send a supplemental comment letter to the Board of Port Commissioners urging them to take additional meaningful actions to mitigate the impacts of this project on Alameda.
