摘要: The State of Michigan through the Department of Transportation (MDOT),has owned the S.S. CHIEf WAWATAM (the CHIEf) since 1977. The state provided a subsidy for operation of the CHIEf for railcar freight service across 'the Straits of Mackinac from April 1976 to August 1984. Because the need for freight service has diminished, the state is considering alternative uses for the CHIEf. Representatives of the communities of Mackinac City and St. Ignace have approached the state for nontransportation use of the CHIEF. MOOT and the Department of Natural Resources (MDNR) undertook a program to identify alternative uses. In August 1985, MOOT and MDNR commissioned Temple, Barker & Sloane, Inc. (TBS) to perform a feasibility study, analyzing alternative uses, costs, potential financial participation, alternative sites, and regulations. Community involvement was an important part of the study.
