SUMMARY: Tuberculosis, specifically Non-Tuberculosis Mycobacterium (NTM), is a complex and often misunderstood lung disease caused by bacteria that live in the environment, such as soil and water supplies. Over 200 species of bacteria can cause infections, sometimes in the skin and soft tissue, but most commonly in the lungs. Certain populations, particularly older individuals, are more susceptible to this infection as they age.

Long Beach takes next step toward long-awaited harbor repairs

SUMMARY: Long Beach city leaders are progressing towards repairing the storm-damaged harbor, following Hurricane Zeta’s destruction of piers and docks in October 2020. In a recent meeting, aldermen voted to solicit bids for inner harbor repairs. Although FEMA awarded the city $2.58 million, rising costs due to inflation may exceed this amount. FEMA will reimburse the actual repair costs, prompting the city to finalize expenditure estimates. Harbor improvement efforts will continue under the current administration until June 30, with additional work underway on the inner bulkhead wall funded by Tidelands Gulf Restoration and Gilsa funds.
