On behalf of Kachemak Bay Birders and as an organizer of the Kachemak Bay Shorebird Monitoring Project that is sponsored by Kachemak Bay Birders, I want to comment on the viewing platform and boardwalk that Doyon Ltd. presented at the Jan. 3 Planning Commission Special Meeting. My comments only address the potential impact that this project might have on local bird populations and habitat as well as opportunity for birding.
