Kayaking in Seattle
We enjoyed an awesome kayaking trip right from the heart of downtown Seattle, near Pier 66. The views were incredible and the kayaking was really fun. If you are ever in Seattle this is a great option if the weather is nice.

Ventilation is the process of changing or replacing air in any space to control temperature or remove any combination of moisture, odors, smoke, heat, dust, airborne bacteria, or carbon dioxide, and to replenish oxygen. Ventilation includes both the exchange of air with the outside as well as circulation of air within the building. It is one of the most important factors for maintaining acceptable indoor air quality in buildings. Methods for ventilating a building may be divided into mechanical/forced and natural types.
HVAC is an important part of residential structures such as single family homes, apartment buildings, hotels and senior living facilities, medium to large industrial and office buildings such as skyscrapers and hospitals, onboard vessels, and in marine environments, where safe and healthy building conditions are regulated with respect to temperature and humidity, using fresh air from outdoors.
Heaters are appliances whose purpose is to generate heat (i.e. warmth) for the building. This can be done via central heating. Such a system contains a boiler, furnace, or heat pump to heat water, steam, or air in a central location such as a furnace room in a home, or a mechanical room in a large building. The heat can be transferred by convection, conduction, or radiation.
Air conditioning and refrigeration are provided through the removal of heat. Heat can be removed through radiation, convection, or conduction. Refrigeration conduction media such as water, air, ice, and chemicals are referred to as refrigerants. A refrigerant is employed either in a heat pump system in which a compressor is used to drive thermodynamic refrigeration cycle, or in a free cooling system which uses pumps to circulate a cool refrigerant (typically water or a glycol mix).

Mike McDowell to Discuss the Environmental Impact of the 520 Bridge Expansion - 2/21/13
Mike McDowell to Discuss the Environmental Impact of the 520 Bridge Expansion at Western Washington University on Feb. 21, 2013
Contact: Western Washington University's Huxley College of the Environment at (360) 650-3520.
BELLINGHAM -- Mike McDowell will present 520 Bridge Expansion: Environmental Impacts and Assessments as part of Western Washington University's Huxley College of the Environment Speaker Series at 4 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 21 in AW 204 on Western's campus.
The presentation is free and open to the public.
McDowell will discuss the strategy and challenges of permitting, environmental mitigation, and Endangered Species Act compliance for the SR 520 Bridge Replacement Project. This is the largest single infrastructure project under way in Washington state, with a total estimated budget of $4.6 billion.
The project corridor, which stretches from the I-5 in Seattle from the west to the City of Redmond at the east end, includes replacing the longest floating bridge in the world. The project also includes the permitting, mitigation, construction and operations of a pontoon casting basin in Aberdeen and Grays Harbor. To meet the timeline established by the governor, the bridge must be replaced by 2014 because of safety concerns with the existing structure. McDowell will describe the project's environmental impact assessment under state and federal law, as well as discussing the review and permitting of design and build components.
McDowell, the principal fisheries and aquatic scientist with Confluence Environmental, has over 30 years of project experience managing and performing baseline biological and fisheries studies, environmental impact statements, and monitoring programs for a wide variety of industries throughout the United States and around the world.
His responsibilities have included conducting and managing environmental impact statements under state and federal law. His experience focuses on impacts on fish and aquatic ecosystems from a wide range of development activities. He has also conducted and managed many studies involving salmonid biology, habitat requirements, and life history throughout the Pacific Northwest and Alaska. He has worked in tropical and sub-tropical ecosystems in both the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean basins. He has also worked as the lead aquatic scientist for two mining projects in Ghana, West Africa. McDowell received his bachelor's degree from Western's Huxley College of the Environment in 1978.
Anyone interested in these topics is encouraged to come and participate; the presentation will include a question-and-answer period. The speaker series is held by Western's Huxley College of the Environment to bring together the environmentally minded community and other interested members of Western and Bellingham's communities. Speakers address topics of contemporary environmental concern in the region and the world.
