I think it will take a lot more then rerouting San
Francisquito Creek again. At low tide, the bay really
is more mud then anything else south of the Dumbarton
Bridge.

All that is needed is a developer that needs a lot of dirt,
and you have a lot of dirt available to take from the harbor.
The two get together, and you have a newly dredged out harbor.

It could be a project that could start a whole new sector in
the local economy.


Probably not. I suspect that any soil removed from San Francisco Bay will
be highly contaminated and not useable anywhere environmental controls
apply, which is pretty much everywhere locally. The runoff from the old
quicksilver mines in Almaden is polluting the Bay daily, and who knows what
else is in the mud from Moffett Field runoff, and other sites around the bay
shore.
