NORTH HARBOR ELECTRICAL
As a result of extensive flooding in the north harbor during the tsunami, electrical transformers at I, J, and X-2 Docks remain inoperable. These three transformers remain damp, and without a dry, serviceable connection, power is unable to be restored to these docks. Drying equipment will be utilized overnight in an attempt to restore power within the coming days. If power restoration continues to be delayed, the Port District will research the feasibility of using temporary generators to restore power to some areas until the transformers can be dried and placed back into service.
Power has been restored to restroom and shower facilities at G and V Docks. In the interest of public safety, slip licensees are encouraged to utilize these facilities only.
We understand and apologize for the inconvenience this may cause, especially to registered liveaboards in the affected area. Resources are available to registered liveaboards in need of temporary accommodations. Registered liveaboards may call the harbor office at (831) 475-6161 during regular business hours, or Santa Cruz Police Dispatch at 471-1131 (non-emergency) after-hours to be put in contact with Harbor Patrol for additional information.
WORK IN THE ENTRANCE CHANNEL
The dredge crew will be working in the entrance channel tomorrow, January 19, 2022, to remove damaged sections of dredge pipe. This type of work requires ample room to maneuver both Twin Lakes, and the workboat Dauntless. Transiting the entrance is not advised while this work is being performed.
If you have a safety issue to report, please contact the harbor office by calling (831) 475-6161 during regular business hours. We appreciate your ongoing patience and cooperation during this time.
