Harbor Water Taxi Co of Wilmington filed for PUC permission to operate a direct Long Beach to Avalon passenger service. Bryan Bayly says talks target Magnolia Pier or Pier A. The four boats include three 53-footers and a 60-foot craft for 70 passengers. If Catalina Island Steamship Line seeks Long Beach access, the applicant will back it.

It offers a coupon for Sav-On Drug at The Pine Lakewood Blvd AV 4c location for a free sample or product, urging customers to present the coupon.
