Juneau Prepares for Two New Icebreakers | Anchorage News

Description

Coast Guard’s big move: Two icebreakers could soon call Juneau home, with funds already set aside for a massive new dock. They’re rebuilding downtown’s wharf and adding a pier — all part of a plan to have the icebreaker Storis stationed by 2029. But with a second icebreaker on the table, locals are bracing for a population boom and asking tough questions about emergency services and healthcare. The Coast Guard is actively seeking public input — they held an open house and will keep the comment period open until July 24. If you care about Juneau’s future, now’s your chance to weigh in.
