Category Category: Restoration
DESCRIPTION
Rehabilitate/reconfigure Kellogg Island and improve riparian vegetation at rivermile 1.4-1.2. Re-shape Kellogg Island to provide more off-channel and marsh habitat by excavating some of the island to provide more shallow water/intertidal area. Restoration options range from scalping the entire island to recreating its historic profile to creating several lagoons.

Prior to 1965, the island provided some tidal marsh habitat. Beginning in 1965-1966, dredge spoils were deposited on the island and this continued until the mid-1970's.

NOTES
Soil contamination may be an issue because the island was built up with dredge spoils, presumably from the Lower Duwamish Waterway.

Kellogg Island is owned by the Port of Seattle, which has no development plans for the site that would preclude the project. The Port wishes to maintain future control over decisions affecting its land.
