Boeing & the Environment
Just south of Seattle, Boeing has created the largest habitat restoration in the Lower Duwamish Waterway, transforming nearly one mile of former industrial waterfront into a wetland resource that improves Puget Sound salmon runs. This habitat work was coordinated with the Natural Resource Trustees, a group made up of local tribes and state and federal agencies, including the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
A video, released by NOAA, highlights this unique project as an example of what can be accomplished through a public-private partnership. Watch to learn about what went into this transformation and how the habitat benefits fish, wildlife and the communities of the Duwamish River.
