PORT ANGELES — A group of Federal Highway Administration archeologists and historians visited Port Angeles on Wednesday to view the defunct Hood Canal Bridge graving yard construction site and meet with local and tribal officials.
No decisions were made during fact-finding sessions at the Clallam County Courthouse and later on the Lower Elwha Klallam reservation.
The federal officials are analyzing the historical significance of the 22.5-acre construction site, in which a portion of the 2,700-year-old Klallam village of Tse-whit-zen was unearthed.
