Local officials this week dug into the details of a multi-million dollar dredging project proposed for Petersburg’s South Harbor. The municipality would be required to fund a portion of the dredging work and will have to decide whether to green light the work and how to pay for it. There's still some uncertainty about the cost of disposing of the dredged material.

For the upcoming year, Petersburg will have two voting members and two alternates on the board of directors for the hydroelectric agency that sells power to this community along with Wrangell and Ketchikan. That comes during a year when that board could be deciding on repairing Petersburg’s connection to its main power source. The borough assembly Monday named four in the community to that board.
