I wouldn't limit the erosion problem to the ship channel (it's much bigger than that), and I might not rank order them the same, but "W" is spot on with the four biggest problems faced by the estuary from a conservation/preservation/habitat point of view. There were a lot of pollution problems in the 70s to the 90s, but the industries have cleaned up their act.
