The Monitor Welcomes WTA

The San Francisco Bay Area Water Transit Authority (WTA), the newest regional agency (see Spring 2000 issue), is also the Bay Area Monitor's newest funding partner. The WTA was established in 1999 by the state legislature, and is charged with producing a plan for water transit service in the San Francisco Bay Area. The agency has just completed eight scoping meetings around the Bay for the environmental impact report on the draft plan. Studies underway include ridership, air quality and intermodal connections.
