  4. The Current Situation at Pier 35 • Needs pier substructure and improved shed. • Only 5-7 years of life remaining. • Does not meet current industry standards. • Requires major investment: Pier is too short, aprons too narrow, shed too small.

  5. Other Piers Studied • Pier 30-32 optimal as a two-berth facility. Pro: No dredging on Eastern face Con: Seismic retrofit cost prohibitive. • Some Southern Waterfront piers may be promising, but not viable in short-term.
