THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE SANTA CRUZ SMALL CRAFT HARBOR REOPENED TO BOAT TRAFFIC YESTERDAY. THE DECISION TO REOPEN THE HARBOR WAS MADE AFTER A NATIONAL OCEANIC ATMOSPHERIC ADMINISTRATION SURVEY OF THE HARBOR FLOOR FOUND THAT ONLY 2 BOATS REMAIN SUNKEN OF THE 14 VESSELS THAT SANK AS A RESULT OF THE TSUNAMI SURGE. TRAVEL THROUGH THE HARBOR IS SAFE ONLY FOR VESSELS WITH A DRAFT OF 6 FEET OR LESS. THE NORTH HARBOR WILL REMAIN CLOSED AS REPAIRS AND CLEAN-UP OPERATIONS TAKE PLACE.
