Needless to say,<br \/>\nmany of us have reservations about the prospect. Online shopping<br \/>\ndetracts from local economies, but would having a distribution center<br \/>\nhere worsen the situation? The case was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.madriverunion.com\/articles\/county-looks-to-mck-amazon-center-for-sales-tax-revenue\/\">originally<\/a> made that<br \/>\nsales tax from the distribution center would help compensate for the<br \/>\nproblem.  Unfortunately, new information demolished that ironic hope,<br \/>\naccording to Supervisor Steve<br \/>\nMadrone. The proposed warehouse would not qualify as a distribution<br \/>\ncenter even though it\u2019s where goods brought in would be reloaded<br \/>\ninto delivery van to go directly to residences. Thus, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.madriverunion.com\/articles\/sup-steve-madrone-amazon-jobs-may-not-be-the-right-fit-for-humboldt\/\">no sales tax<\/a><em><\/em>.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font>This<br \/>\ndodge does not bode well for a future relationship with Amazon. Its<br \/>\nreputation as a harsh, intrusive and not particularly generous<br \/>\nemployer bothers a lot of people as well. The application to the<br \/>\nPlanning Department is not yet complete, so the fate of the proposal<br \/>\nis far from known. Its proposed location is zoned as an industrial<br \/>\npark, which is appropriate for that type of business. The Planning<br \/>\nDepartment doesn\u2019t know yet what level of CEQA will be applied to<br \/>\nthe project.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font>If<br \/>\nthis distribution center is built, 350 Humboldt thinks it should have<br \/>\nminimal impact on the climate at the very least. To that end we<br \/>\nprescribe solar panels for the building and heat pumps to handle both<br \/>\nheating and cooling. The solar panels can help charge the electric<br \/>\ntrucks that should be deployed.  Amazon has already begun<br \/>\nelectrifying its fleet with Rivian Electric Delivery Vans, so don\u2019t<br \/>\nstick us with anything less. Furthermore, these trucks should be<br \/>\nequipped with tires that aren\u2019t made with 6PPP-quinone, a toxin<br \/>\nthat washes into waterways from the road and kills fish. Coho salmon<br \/>\nare particularly susceptible.<\/font><\/p>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: center;\"><font><font><font><font>\u00bb\u00ab<\/font><\/font><\/font><\/font><\/h1>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><font><strong>The<br \/>\nrumors have been confirmed<\/strong>.

Nordic would have cleaned<br \/>\nup that site, including the brownfield, so it\u2019s too bad that won\u2019t<br \/>\nhappen. On the other hand it won\u2019t use more electricity than a<br \/>\ncouple of our cities put together or feed its fish thousands of tons<br \/>\nof unsustainably produced fish food&mdash;much of which was other fish.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font>To<br \/>\ngive Nordic credit, it voluntarily went through CEQA, but the<br \/>\nEnvironmental Impact Report failed to reassure its critics about<br \/>\nseveral major environmental impacts.

Or at least that was its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wildcalifornia.org\/post\/update-humboldt-county-changes-policy-to-better-protect-large-old-trees\">understanding<\/a> at the time. But this most recent removal of old growth trees<br \/>\ninspired EPIC to issue an Action Alert. The resulting outcry has<br \/>\nmotivated the county to reassess its responsibility for protecting<br \/>\nold growth. A newly discovered part of the California Code of<br \/>\nRegulations seems to clearly give the county authority to permit or<br \/>\nprohibit falling old growth.

McGuire has been involved with this issue ever<br \/>\nsince public dissatisfaction with Jackson State Demonstration forest<br \/>\nboiled over in 2020. Frequenters of the forest were incensed to see<br \/>\nthe state logging the oldest, largest redwoods. Trying to mediate<br \/>\nbetween protesters and CAL Fire, McGuire wondered out loud what<br \/>\nexactly the state was demonstrating with its demonstration forest. It<br \/>\nlooked an awful lot like plain ordinary commercial logging.<\/font><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p><font><font><font>2494<br \/>\nwould focus the priorities of California\u2019s demonstration<br \/>\nforests&mdash;85,000 acres in all&mdash;on ecological restoration and carbon<br \/>\nsequestration. It would also lay the groundwork for co-management<br \/>\nwith local Tribes and recognize indigenous forest stewardship. This<br \/>\nmove from California would be a welcome counteraction to the federal<br \/>\npush to log more forests. It would also help California achieve its<br \/>\npledge to conserve and protect 30% of its land and coastal waters by<br \/>\n2030.  <\/font><\/font><\/font>\n<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>350 Humboldt<br \/>\nHappenings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our<br \/>\ngeneral meeting<\/strong><strong> will be on March 4<\/strong> at 6PM.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/us02web.zoom.us\/j\/82415260158?pwd=SHY0dENuZ3o5MXFSRExLd3kxeE9iQT09\">https:\/\/us02web.zoom.us\/j\/82415260158?pwd=SHY0dENuZ3o5MXFSRExLd3kxeE9iQT09<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>We\u2019re throwing a<br \/>\nparty at Septentrio<\/strong> for two reasons. 1)  to celebrate the Regional<br \/>\nTransportation Plan update that enviros asked for. 2) to honor Dan<br \/>\nChandler for his many years of dedication to the climate cause.

One was simply a matter of wording&mdash;the term \u201cclimate crisis\u201d<br \/>\nhad been changed to \u201cclimate change\u201d throughout the document. Now<br \/>\nit\u2019s a crisis again.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font>The<br \/>\nHCAOG board also agreed to restore the previous deadline for an<br \/>\nimportant goal of 80% of new housing being located within easy access<br \/>\nto jobs, shopping, and recreation without needing a car. The last<br \/>\ndropped goal of the RTP was reinstated at the last meeting on Feb.<br \/>\n19. This was the Funding Consistency Analysis&mdash;a pledge to fund<br \/>\nfuture projects based on their consistency with the targets of the<br \/>\nRTP. In other words, put their money where their mouth is.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font><br \/>At<br \/>\nthe same February meeting another issue came up for board discussion.<br \/>\nThe new RTP identifies fourteen new transit stops that can be legally<br \/>\ndefined as \u201cmajor transit stops.\u201d This designation means that<br \/>\njurisdictions can\u2019t impose minimum parking requirements for<br \/>\ndevelopments that occur within half of a mile within major transit<br \/>\nstops, or collect extra traffic impact revenues from the developers.<br \/>\nInfill projects are fine for these areas, but not all towns are<br \/>\ninterested. Arcata and Eureka agreed to the extra major stops, making<br \/>\n21 major transit stops all together. The only other affected jurisdiction, Fortuna, needs more<br \/>\ntime to decide.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font>Much<br \/>\ndepends on the Regional Transportation Plan&mdash;public transit, roads,<br \/>\ntrails, and even where new housing is located. All of these things<br \/>\naffect the climate and environment. HCAOG does not have control over<br \/>\nall of these aspects, but it wields considerable clout by disbursing<br \/>\nstate and federal transportation funds.<\/font><\/p>\n<p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/can2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/data\/001\/094\/539\/original\/screenshot_2026-02-28_094130.jpg\" style=\"width: 100%; max-width: 444px; display: block; margin: auto;\" width=\"444\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" align=\"center\"><\/p><figcaption class=\"redactor_caption\" data-src=\"https:\/\/can2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/data\/001\/094\/539\/original\/screenshot_2026-02-28_094130.jpg\">HCAOG executive director (screenshot)<\/figcaption><\/p>\n<p>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<\/p>\n<p><font><strong>To<br \/>\nprotect Humboldt\u2019s coastal waters from future offshore oil drilling<\/strong><br \/>\nproposed by the Trump administration, the harbor district commission<br \/>\nhas come up with an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.times-standard.com\/2026\/02\/14\/ordinance-to-prevent-offshore-oil-work-on-harbor-district-land-discussed\/\">idea<\/a>.
